Diary Blog, 31 October 2025, including material about Jewish journalistic scribbler Sabrina Miller

Tweets seen

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” [Oscar Wilde]. I have used that phrase or designation for the last several years on the blog, though initially in relation to “the Harry formerly known as Prince“, with reference to his past decade, and particularly his activity with Meghan Mulatta.

She means “exceeded” her expectations, not “excelled“. Semi-literate…

So much for about 16 years of full-time education, including 3 years reading English Literature at Bristol (when not engaged in Jewish/Israeli “activism”).

So the Mail finally managed to boot out that lying apologist for Israel (and activist for the UK’s malicious Jewish lobby).

Sabrina Miller was the Jewish girl at the centre of the storm around Dr. David Miller at Bristol University a few years ago, which was yet another faked “antisemitism” storm in a teacup. Miller was sacked, but won his case in the employment tribunal.

Sabrina Miller became a newspaper scribbler, despite having previously been also a defender in print (not in the Daily Mail/Mail on Sunday) of Jewish-lobby puppet, MP and later “lord” (elevated by fellow-puppet “Boris”-idiot to the House of Lords) Ian Austin, who tweeted (now long-deleted) that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized (but, in other tweets etc, “holocaust” “denial” criminalized).

Sabrina Miller even went further, writing that it was worth thinking about whether bestiality itself should be decriminalized.

Sabrina Miller is or was heavily tied-in with various “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] scams. Not just the harassment of Dr. Miller.

For example, Sabrina Miller, as a Mail “journalist”, colluded with (now washed-up) self-promoting Jew solicitor Mark Lewis in the latter’s failed attempt to make money and publicity out of a faked “antisemitic incident” at the Edinburgh Fringe show of a black American comedian called Reginald D. Hunter. Lewis and his wife/carer Mandy Blumenthal had both made money from an earlier and similar fraudulent scam involving a Middle East airline.

See:

Incidentally, both Dr. David Miller and Reginald D. Hunter are now being privately prosecuted by that same tiny but (((well-funded))) and very malicious Jewish/Zionist org, “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.

It is pretty clear that (despite “the usual lobby” making sure that Sabrina Miller won a couple of “young journalism” awards during her time at the Daily Mail/Mail on Sunday), the newspaper wanted to get rid of a dishonest “journalist” (careerist scribbler) who sees nothing wrong in making up the “news” so long as she thereby serves Israel and the UK Jewish lobby (and her own career).

I note that she writes that she is now on a “career break” and is not immediately going to another position.

Not unlikely.

[“Just to be clear on the facts of all this: a) The Chancellor broke the law b) The Chancellor mislead the Prime Minister, his ethics advisor and the country on why she broke the law c) The Chancellor has previously demanded the resignation of her political opponents for breaking the law, even though they did so inadvertently d) The Chancellor was elected on a manifesto that stated “politics should be driven by a sense of service to the country, not considerations of party or self-interest“]

Was this unexpected? “Rachel from Accounts and Customer Relations” deliberately went way beyond her credit limit on her HoC (interest-free) credit card, then refused for years to pay the capital sum back, thus getting a financial benefit not open to members of the public. She took bribes and “freebies” from wealthy Indians and Jews, and is a buy-to-let parasite. No wonder that actual rank and file socialist members of the Labour Party are leaving in hordes.

The judge’s direction to the jury was a disgrace, from the extract I have seen at least. Plainly pro-defence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Dugdale.

As for the jury, they must be totally stupid.

If you can vandalize Stonehenge and get away with it on spurious “human rights” grounds, then you can vandalize almost anything and use the same defence. This is the kind of thing, the kind of liberalism leading to licence, that then leads on, ultimately, to dictatorship (as antidote).

The “protesters” (vandals) should at least have had their heads kicked in at the time of their crime (which crime, according to the “learned” judge and biased or stupid jury, seems not to be a crime at all). Madness.

Incidentally, the criminals are not even British. One is an Indian, the other Irish. The third defendant, a thick artisan, was apparently British, but only drove the main two to the scene of the crime.

Speaking after the verdict, Lynch, who is now a masters student in ecology and conservation at the University of Exeter, said: “I just want things to be better, I just want things to be fair and right.”

I have been talking and online-writing for years about what is happening in the West generally, and particularly about what is happening in the UK. Not an overnight collapse, just sliding standards across the board. Have you been to an NHS hospital recently? Did you ever see the better ones in the 1970s? Compare them. Today? Administration, or maladministration, in particular.

Look at the standards of MPs. Rock-bottom. One example: the Liberal Democrats were headed by Jewish-lobby puppet Jo Swinson before the present buffoon, Ed Davey. Go back half a century to the old Liberal Party, headed by Jo Grimond. What a contrast…

The same decline can be seen in the main System parties.

One of many possible examples: Liz Truss. 50 years ago, she would never have become Prime Minister, nor any kind of minister; probably not even a backbench MP. Some kind of assistant or secretary, maybe. Well, she did become an MP (albeit mainly on her back), and fate propelled that stupid, pushy, uncultured, semi-educated creature to the highest office, and look at the result.

Look at “Boris”-idiot, too. Just one more of many such examples.

…and there were many in the UK msm etc gagging for the same police-state brutality here too. Propagandists such as Piers Morgan.

Donkeys. After cats, probably my favourite animals.

Stray thought

I was just watching an episode, I think 5 years or so old, of The Chase. A question was asked re. which Prime Minister was “put into Room 101“, (the UK TV show) by Jeremy Clarkson. A choice of three, which the contestant answered, correctly, as having been David Cameron. The Chaser, “the Vixen”, Jenny Ryan, also answered correctly. However, presenter Bradley Walsh said, en passant, “I’d have gone Chamberlain”, and the “Vixen” said “I’m with you there“.

What they were really saying is that Chamberlain was rubbish because he tried to avert the disastrous war against the German Reich.

Neither Jenny Ryan nor Bradley Walsh are Jewish, but what they were doing there was making a kind of ritual minor obeisance to the Jewish lobby. To put it another way, they were signalling a kind of fealty.

The fact is that no-one the Jews/Jewish lobby/Israel lobby dislikes or disapproves will get on TV (and so make plenty of money) or stay there if they hold the “wrong” opinions. I can guarantee that if either of those TV faces were to have said, e.g., “well at least Chamberlain tried to avert a disastrous war“, that would be the end of their TV career. Just that. Killed stone dead.

Well, something seems to have happened over the last week— I admit that I am unused to having well over 1,000 individuals reading the blog in a single day (over 1,300 today, so far, and with still an hour to go before midnight), and those ~1,400 people have been reading a total of about 2,500 blog posts (so far today). For me, even one human soul is a big audience, in principle. Still, all to the good.

I agree with that position. Russia should rule all of Eastern Ukraine (Ukraine east of the Dnieper); also Crimea, and the littoral of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. Kiev and Odessa should either be standalone “free cities”, or run as condominia (between Russia and an independent and neutral Ukrainian state centred on Lvov).

More Israeli war crimes. An accursed tribe.

Israel does not stand alone, but has agents, co-opted supporters (not all Jews) and lobby groups all over the Western world. All guilty of facilitating what has been happening and continues to happen. The Jewish lobby and/or Israel lobby is also the primary lobby trying to shut down free speech in the UK, France etc.

Paris, London, Berlin (etc). Migration invasion. Clear the streets!

Well, I cannot speak as to any of those details, but right from the start I felt that there was something not quite right about Paul Mason. I have blogged about him previously, two or three years ago.

First of all, despite having trained as a musician, and worked as such, and also having lectured in musical studies at Loughborough (Leicestershire), Mason (a quarter-Jew, one of his grandparents having immigrated from Lithuania), never having had any formal financial or economics training, suddenly appears as a freelance financial journalist in London in 1991 at age 31 (after a “missing” three years). Then, from 2001, he is seen on shows such as Newsnight (as Business Editor), and his political persona at that time is a kind of semi-Marxist and semi-anarcho-syndicalist mixture, hard to pin down.

Look at what Wikipedia says: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist)#Politics.

You can see from that piece how, over the years, Mason has veered from so-called “left-wing Communism” and Trotskyism to (he himself claims) “social democracy” and both Marxism and post-Marxism. At one point, he was writing in support of Jeremy Corbyn. More recently, Mason declared himself a supporter of Keir Starmer.

You see the point. Politically, for all his worn-on-the sleeve pseudo-radicalism, Mason is the political grey man, superficially at home here, there, and everywhere. He sort-of fits in almost anywhere in the (generally anti-British type of) political milieu, almost like a secret agent of some sort…

In one matter, Mason has always been consistent: he has always supported dictatorship and repression of opposing views and dissenting opinions:

In the New Statesman magazine in June 2018, Mason argued the case for state suppression of “fascists”, saying that he favoured a policy of using “the full panoply of security measures to deter and monitor” those he described as “racists” and added: “For clarity, unlike many on the left, that means I am in favour of state suppression of fascist groups.” He finished his article by saying that “The progressive half of Britain needs a narrative to overcome this threat: a narrative based on shared, historic values of democracy and tolerance”, and also “[to] stop pandering to right-wing nationalism and xenophobia and start fighting it.

[Wikipedia]

Martin Wolf characterised Mason’s views in the Financial Times as justifying a planned economy, quoting Mason saying in support of the UK A Green New Deal report “Labour wants to combat climate change through three mechanisms: state spending, state lending and the state direction of private finance.”[46]

[Wikipedia]

[“Mason confirmed his intention to apply for selection as the Labour candidate for [Islington North] in May 2024. Despite having previously supported him as Labour leader, Mason has been critical of Corbyn’s record on antisemitism, defence, and Brexit.

[Wikipedia]


On 8 March 2018, The Jewish Chronicle reported that Mason had been a member of the Facebook group ‘Palestine Live’, in which antisemitic material was posted. He said that while he was a member of the group, he was added to it in 2014 without his knowledge by someone else, and that he does not read or endorse the content of all Facebook groups of which he is part. Mason suggested that the group should be closed and investigated if it contained antisemitism.[57]

Again, hard to pin down.

The diplomatic hypocrisy of nations…

All the same, a good thing that even a gesture is being made, and this does go well beyond a gesture. The gradual ghetto-ization of Zionism, it might be said.

Putin negotiates with the EU, with the cat as Putin.

Alternatively, playing cards:

(with another ace in a hole, or silo, somewhere…).

So why does “military and strategy expert” and former Secretary of State for Defence, Ben Wallace (highest active military rank— captain in the Guards), not put on his steel or Kevlar helmet, shoulder his weapon, and join the ranks of the condemned on the front-line? His age is no bar; there are plenty of unfortunate Ukrainians aged 55+ serving on the crumbling front-lines of the Kiev regime.

In fact, Jewish dictator Zelensky would love to have even one overweight middle-aged drunk volunteer; hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers have deserted (apparently, about 200,000 in the past year or so), and about 800,000 Ukrainians are currently hiding from the draft (and the press-gangs) inside Ukraine. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, dodging the draft by staying outside Ukraine’s borders.

Go on, Wallace. Make the Scots Guards proud!

Already, many of those actually fighting for the Zelensky cabal are mercenaries from Asia, Africa, South America, and other poverty-stricken parts of the world.

Maximum range 280 miles (some only 120 miles), so not quite far enough to reach Moscow (or Petersburg) from the Ukrainian border. Moscow is about 300 miles north/northeast, Petersburg far further (about 530 miles due north of the nearest Ukrainian border). However, those missiles could reach smaller cities to the north, northeast, and east of Ukrainian territory.

Is that a brush-off for Zelensky? A warning to Putin? Hard to say.

Wall. Squad. End.

Part of the reason may be because so many British students are reading for Mickey Mouse “degrees” at “McUniversities”…

More research should be done about the whole issue. What are “degrees” (a mediaeval concept) for? What are universities for? What if anything should be the linkage between academic degrees and vocations (and jobs)?

…and I do not recall the same Marlon Solomon (or any other Jew entertainers) defending satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz when organized Jew-Zionists, led by the malicious and evil “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (or “CAA”), had her “cancelled” from the Edinburgh Fringe quite a few years ago. The same cabal have also repeatedly harassed anti-Zionist Jew and jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, metaphysical speaker David Icke, and many others.

[“Major General of the German Bundeswehr Christian Freuding stated in a widely circulated statement that Moscow is striving to achieve the capability to simultaneously launch 2,000 drones and emphasized that intercepting Shahed-type drones, costing 30,000–50,000 euros each, with Patriot surface-to-air missiles, costing over 5 million euros per unit, is not economically efficient. At the same time, the German general noted that the most effective way to counter Russia is deep retaliatory strikes — on Russian bases, airfields, aircraft, defense factories, and production facilities.“]

More Israeli war crimes.

Well, after Israel is defeated, those brutal and sadistic Israeli Jew military personnel who have targeted women and children must be “tried” and —after a “fair trial”, of course— hanged, as happened after WW2 at Nuremberg and elsewhere. Fair’s fair, after all…

“Deport“? No…I think that a wall and a squad should be able to finish this.

Another one who needs a wall and a squad to finish him off.

I discussed Israel-lobby puppet and fake “conservative”, Iain Dale, on yesterday’s blog. Poses as a political commentator, but knows nothing, just nothing.

“A national embarrassment“? That might be one way to describe Ian Austin himself, a former expenses-cheat MP, nominally “Labour” but “elevated” to the degraded life peerage by “Boris”-idiot.

Austin, a complete puppet of the Israelis and the Jewish lobby, apparently tweeted (I have screenshots, apparently genuine, and blogged using them years ago, and have never been sued, nor even threatened with action, by Austin) to the effect that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized. Hard to believe that he is now in the House of Lords, but that old institution is now so degraded that it really should be shut down.

I blogged about the matter a few times nearly 4 years ago, e.g.

That view of Austin’s was then discussed, sympathetically (!), on Twitter/X, by another Israel-lobby person, the Daily Mail scribbler, Sabrina Miller, who was involved with a few of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] scams, such as the Mark Lewis/Mandy Blumenthal stunt against black comedian Reginald D. Hunter at the Edinburgh Fringe last year (2024).

In fact, Sabrina Miller went even further than Ian Austin. He “only” wanted to decriminalize bestiality pornography; she thinks that bestiality itself should be decriminalized! See: https://web.archive.org/web/20210608011817/https:/fleajournal.com/summer-2020/rough-why-we-should-legalise-bestiality-wait-hear-me-out-its-not-as-crazy-as-you-think

Sabrina Miller was also one of the Jewish students at Bristol University who contrived to get anti-Israel academic Dr. David Miller sacked from the University (unlawfully, as it turned out; he later recovered substantial damages at an employment tribunal), another “CAA” conspiracy.

Both Reginald D. Hunter and Dr. Miller are now facing a different form of “CAA” scam— private criminal prosecutions. I hope that they not only secure acquittals but also secure substantial costs, as would be their right.

Incidentally, Austin (now, ludicrously, “lord” Austin) took part in conspiratorial discussions over years, trying to have me prosecuted re. my one time Twitter account (it was closed down by Twitter in 2018, at the behest, once again, of the Jewish lobby). He even wrote to the then Director of Public Prosecutions about me, demanding that I be prosecuted. In 2018, apparently. “They” and their puppets hate free speech.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jul/17/armed-police-threatened-to-arrest-kent-protester-for-holding-palestinian-flag

Armed police threatened a peaceful protester with arrest under the Terrorism Act for holding a Palestinian flag and having signs saying “Free Gaza” and “Israel is committing genocide”, accusing her of supporting a proscribed organisation.

In the encounter, which she filmed, one officer told her: “Mentioning freedom of Gaza, Israel, genocide, all of that all come under proscribed groups, which are terror groups that have been dictated by the government.”

He went on to say that the phrase “Free Gaza” was “supportive of Palestine Action”, adding it was an offence “to express an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organisation, namely Palestine Action is an offence under section 12(1A) of the Terrorism Act”. The officer told her she had committed that offence.

Speaking to the Guardian, Murton said: “I don’t see how anything I was wearing, how anything I was displaying, anything I was saying, could be deemed as supportive of the proscribed group.

“It’s terrifying, I was standing there thinking, this is the most authority, authoritarian, dystopian experience I’ve had in this country, being told that I’m committing terrorist offences by two guys with firearms.”

[Guardian]

I myself have had encounters over the past decade or so with similar woodentops, police “officers” who both over-estimate their own lawful powers and, also, fail even to understand what the relevant law is.

My own encounters had nothing directly to do with Palestine but did have everything to do with malicious Jew-Zionists and Israel fanatics making up contrived and false allegations and complaints. “Slitherman”, of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, is one of the worst.

Completely. I suggest that tenants simply be required to pay an increased rent instead. Somewhere in the region of £5 per week.

As usual, “they” want a great deal more than a pound of flesh…

About 20 months ago, Gazan militants attacked southern Israel. Many Israelis (mostly military-connected, some civilian) were killed, some abducted. Several hundred killed by the militants, with several hundred more killed via Israeli “kill everything” military responses. In round figures, about 1,000 (including Israelis killed by the Israelis themselves).

Since then, the Israeli Jews have killed or seriously wounded, or starved to death etc, or prevented from getting medicines, or even water, about 200,000 Gazans, mostly civilians, mostly women and children. The Israeli Jewish “soldiers” have deliberately killed, or sadistically maimed, small children lining up to get water and/or food for their families.

What can anyone say about an evil tribe that does that?

Also, what about the surreal disproportion? 200 to 1.

One thing we can do in the UK is to get rid of politicians in the pay of the Israel lobby, in particular Starmer-stein, “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, Liz Kendall, and Yvette Cooper, all members of Labour Friends of Israel.

There speaks a vocal member of the tribe which invaded Palestine, robbed or stole from the original inhabitants 97% of the land, and which has, in the past 20 months, killed or grievously injured 200,000 people in hugely-disproportionate retaliation for an attack which killed or injured a few hundred Jews.

…and his wife and children (or servants) will not be deliberately shot in the knees or head for the crime of bringing the bastard food and water. cf. Gaza…

Britain was influenced to its massive detriment by the Jew-Zionist lobby (which controlled Churchill). Result? War, devastation across Europe, including parts of the UK, huge loss of life, huge waste of money on war operations, loss of the Empire (part immediately, part over the following years and decades), a great increase in the influence of the Jew-Zionist lobby, and its postwar takeover of much of the Press, radio, TV, the economy etc. Also, the importation of at first hundreds, then thousands, then millions, of non-Europeans.

Life goes on…

Her manner may be hysterical, but her point is valid. Terrible cruelties are still being inflicted on the civilian population of Gaza by the uniformed military forces of the Israeli Jews who, over a century, certainly over the past 80 years, have stolen Palestine.

According to the most fanatical Jew-Zionist organizations in the UK, up to 96% of UK-resident Jews support Israel, and the majority of them even support what is being done in Gaza.

Why “always support doctors“? They vary much in their abilities and attitudes. As for the ridiculously high pay (£3,000 for one shift), in 2006 or 2007 I was briefed to represent a crap Dutch locum hospital doctor (and not a “consultant”) at Cambridge County Court. His NHS pay for a single shift had been over £600— and that was nearly 20 years ago, so you could certainly double or even triple that in today’s money. Incidentally, he had been working 6-7 days per week.

Of course, the fanatical Zionist Jews in London, Manchester, Brighton etc will scoff, and say that Gazan people are not suffering much at all. Meanwhile, the very same Jews whine, and claim to be afraid, if they happen to see (or pretend to have seen) a Swastika drawn in chalk on a pavement by children.

Soon Russia will be able to launch over 2,000 of such weapons daily. Such an air fleet will be unstoppable.

If I am not mistaken, “Shahed” means “Martyr” in Arabic.

My assessment of Macron from 2019:

The Kiev regime seems to be losing, every day, on average, about 1,000 men (killed, wounded badly enough to be taken out of the front-line, or captured); an unknown number, thought to be high, desert on any one day. There are now no volunteers, only those kidnapped off the streets and forced on pain of death to “serve”.

The Kiev regime is on the brink of catastrophic military collapse in Ukraine east of the Dnieper.

A recent assessment I saw about the mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” cabal (amateur —though paid— snoopers and propagandists): https://restorationist.org.uk/how-long-can-the-cps-ignore-hope-not-hates-criminality/.

Should any new readers require information about the dishonest and incompetent Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis (of Eilat, Israel), please use the blog’s search box.

Lewis is or was a “Patron” of the malicious Jew-Zionist pro-Israel org and fake charity (effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London), the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, which is the private prosecutor in several recently-initiated and current minor criminal cases, such as those against the black comedian Reginald D. Hunter, and against Professor David Miller.

Wealthy UK-based Jews and opaque Israeli funders have recently provided the “CAA” with well over £600,000 to bring contrived criminal cases privately in England.

My own experiences (a selection out of many more) of the “CAA” and the informally-connected “UKLFI” (UK Lawyers for Israel):

The Jewish/Israel lobby has been assiduous in having had removed a great deal of damaging online material about Lewis: fraudulent and other dishonest conduct when acting as a solicitor (including cheating clients out of money); Lewis’s sheer incompetence as a lawyer in both (at first) Manchester and (after 2009) London.

Some is still to be found online, though: Lewis’s attempts (with his present wife/carer, Mandy Blumenthal) to make both Jew-Zionist publicity (re. contrived “antisemitism”) and money (“compensation” for supposedly hurt feelings) via planned stunts, such as the one against Kuwait Airways some years ago, and the one that badly-backfired at a show put on by that black comedian, Reginald D. Hunter, at the Edinburgh Fringe last year.

https://www.thejc.com/news/kuwait-airways-pays-damages-to-woman-barred-from-buying-ticket-at-heathrow-for-being-israeli-c1vcjc8o.

Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal made money both ways out of that Kuwait Airways scam: she got “compensation” (for nothing) running into tens of thousands of pounds, while Lewis got a similar amount by acting, notionally, as her lawyer in the non-existent “case”. In reality, the whole thing was, in ordinary language, a fraud.

I covered that last particular Lewis scam on the blog last year:

The scam failed, but now we have that black comedian being privately criminally prosecuted by the “CAA” fanatics, of whom Lewis himself is, of course, one!

See also:

Other material about Mark Lewis is also now hard to find online. I mentioned a couple of items on the blog a few days ago, such as Lewis’s physical and mental abuse of his second wife, the one-time minor (very minor) “celebrity” and sometime local radio presenter, Caroline Feraday (they married in, I believe, 2012, but divorced in 2013, about a year after the glitzy wedding, which was well-covered by tame Jewish scribblers in several newspapers and magazines; the divorce was scarcely covered anywhere, though).

More material about Lewis and Caroline Feraday can be found via the search box, but Caroline Feraday has now deleted her original Twitter/X account (which, like that of Lewis, pretended to have tens of thousands of —in fact, merely bought— Twitter/X “followers).

Lewis was, incidentally, married to his first wife in Manchester (from where he originated), but they divorced sometime around 2009 or 2010.

Ex-wife of an ex-MP (Con Party) thinks that the way back for the “Conservative” Party is to hit pensioners again, give more money to pseudo-green “climate change” nonsense, and beg to re-enter the EU.

Bearing in mind that pensioners have, in recent years, provided well over half of Conservative Party votes, and that Brexit-favouring voters have also heavily supported the Con Party over the past decade, that prescription would seem to leave the Cons adrift in heavy seas. https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/49978-how-britain-voted-in-the-2024-general-election.

There is no logic to any of that.

I doubt that Israel has anything “on” Goodwin of a personally-discreditable nature, but Goodwin knows that, if he as much as voices one mild criticism of Israel’s behaviour, or that of the UK Jew-Zionist lobby, that’s him gone, so to speak. Burgeoning TV career, newspaper articles, guesting on BBC Question Time etc, maybe even his Substack blog (and high income from that).

Jake Wallis Simons, who, when he was at the Daily Mail, seems to have overseen or been involved with the full page story which that comic ran about me following my wrongful and (as it later turned out) unlawful disbarment in 2016.

The Wallis Simons individual went to Israel from the UK to join the Israeli armed forces, then suddenly was found travelling around Asia etc, and without any obvious sign (other than his appearance) of his Jewish/Israeli orientation. Why? What? How?

One can speculate, but hard information is not easy to find.

Britain is housing a “fifth column”. That fifth column must be rooted out. Es muss ausgerottet werden!

When I first visited Qatar, in very early 2001, I was being driven in a Qatar Airways limousine to my aircraft (by reason of my travelling First Class) when I noticed that Air Force Two, the conveyance at the time of General Colin Powell, was parked next to the Qatari plane. Obviously (in retrospect) there to talk about Iraq etc.

The US-Qatari connection is not new.

“Illegal” migration is about 5%. What about the other 95%, Goodwin?

Incidentally, Goodwin, your craven obeisance to Israel and the UK Jewish lobby has shot your credibility. Pity…

The Middle East can only see lasting peace under a long-term supervening imperium, as under Alexandrine Greeks, Romans, and their successors.

Diary Blog, 31 May 2025, including thoughts on the continuing “lawfare” abuse of the UK legal system by the Jewish-Zionist “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (private prosecution of comedian Reginald D. Hunter)

Saturday quiz

Not a very good week. I merely equalled the modest score of political journalist John Rentoul— 4/10. I knew only the answers to questions 1, 2, 3, and 7.

I take issue with the quiz-setter on question 10. As far as I know, no European country has forest cover as high as 78%, though Finland has, I believe, about 74%, and Sweden the same or slightly less. John Rentoul claims to have answered that question correctly, though; well, there it is…

The continuing abuse of the UK legal system by the Jew-Zionist troublemakers known as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”

I happened to see the following tweet put out by the malicious and troublemaking “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, whose chief spokesperson, “Slitherman”, despite having been exposed (by the carelessness of the CAA’s own lawyer, and in open court) some years ago as a serial and sadistic online troller of people, especially women, is often featured on the “no one watches” Talk TV online outlet, GB News, and even Sky News, as well as LBC radio, all msm outlets under the (((usual))) influence, of course:

[“A warrant has been issued for Reginald D. Hunter to attend court in relation to a private prosecution brought by CAA. Mr Hunter is charged with three offences under section 127 of the Communications Act 2003, relating to posts on X that he allegedly published in September 2024. The first hearing took place today at Westminster Magistrates’ Court, but Mr Hunter failed to appear. A warrant has now been issued for him to attend court on a future date. This is one of a number of private prosecutions that CAA is bringing, and there will be more to say on the case in due course.”]

That seems (in view of the date mentioned) likely to relate to events in 2024 described in a few previous blog posts:

Much of the background can probably be found in those blog posts.

As regular readers of the blog will know, the malicious “CAA” troublemakers, liars, and perjurers (who are disowned even by most Jews, even by most Jew-Zionists, in this country), and (connected by supporters and /or members, though not formally) “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”], have been gunning for me over the past 11-14 years: see

The right of individuals and organizations to bring private prosecutions, once, in practice, mainly the preserve of bodies such as the RSPCA and RSPB, is now being abused, mainly by tendentious political organizations such as the fake charity, the “CAA”.

The “CAA” is basically a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London. It has been, for about a decade, conducting both harassment and “lawfare” against individuals and bodies it considers anti-Israel and/or “antisemitic”.

So far, apart from me —not privately-prosecuted, the “CAA” having somehow suborned police and Crown Prosecution Service [“CPS”] personnel in order to have me prosecuted by direct police/CPS action (see blog posts above)— the CAA has harassed such as the famous David Icke, the (half-Jewish) jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, former footballer and TV pundit Gary Lineker, Al Jazeera TV, the BBC and its reporters, and many others, and has in the past privately prosecuted the satirical singer, Alison Chabloz, whose case was then taken over officially by the CPS.

Private prosecutions can be taken over by the CPS either on its own initiative or upon application by either the private prosecutors or the defendant(s). The CPS can then either stop the prosecution, or take it over and continue it officially.

The “CAA” seems to have had plenty of money donated to it, either by wealthy Jews in the UK, or from Israel. Indeed, their latest “lawfare” abuse follows on from their long-running attempt to recruit a competent lawyer as “General Counsel” (they love important titles— “Slitherman” is called “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”…):

Other “CAA” staff members have also been recruited recently.

The “CAA” usually tries (as in my own free speech trial) to use/abuse the notorious “bad law” of Communications Act 2003, s.127, which was recommended for repeal by the Law Commission, but which (so far) remains on the statute book mainly because Jew-Zionist organizations (principally the “CAA”) made representations, via “friendly” MPs and corrupt members of the House of Lords, to the effect that the provision should not be repealed (during the quite recent passage of the Online Harms Act).

This type of “lawfare” should be prohibited. It is a flagrant abuse of the English legal system.

Incidentally, the “two Israelis” mentioned in the report of the Daily Mail are the two dishonest Jew-Zionist fanatics mentioned in the blog posts above, in fact, that is “Mark Lewis Lawyer” and Mandy Blumenthal (his wife/carer), acting together with Daily Mail scribbler Sabrina Miller to create a contrived “incident”.

It is pretty clear why the abusive and malicious “CAA” cabal is now trying once more to bring private prosecutions. The police and CPS are now, more than heretofore, aware of the CAA’s “lawfare” abuse, and are less and less willing to take the contrived “CAA” complaints at face value. Ergo, with the CPS and even the fairly clueless police unwilling to be used as “CAA” puppets, the “CAA” has had to shift for itself.

Successful defendants to private prosecutions have the right to ask for the costs of their defence, which may be, in some cases, very substantial, by the way.

That made me laugh. Liz Truss is ancient history, politically (in the real Britain outside John Rentoul’s Westminster Bubble). I doubt that many voters care about any similarity between Farage’s economic views and those of already-near-forgotten Liz Truss.

As for whether the (non-existent) “books” or statistics “add up”, the people have had so much of all that nonsense wash over them for 15-20 years that it makes little or no impact.

People want to stamp on both Labour and Conservative parties. They know in their hearts that those System parties have to go, whatever the flaws of Farage and his Reform UK party.

Just a Westminster Bubble club, which has as its main aim (together with personal careerism) amplifying the System message(s)…

It is not a pro-Farage vote, or even pro-Reform vote, as such, but neither is it a “protest vote”. It is a seriously-angry vote against the System parties, their smug freeloading politicians, and about everything now going very very wrong in this country, and against the key cause (of several connected causes)— mass immigration, the trashing of a white European country, and turning that country into a black/brown/Chinese/God-knows-what dystopian mess.

I suppose that the others are either non-Brits anyway, or too young (under 30? under 40? and brainwashed in the schools) to realize what Britain has lost, and what it has become.

Not sure what that tweeter (the ex-wife and ex-expenses-paid secretary of a Con Party MP who was voted out last year) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Syms] is saying there.

Politically, Duncan-Jordan is indeed “toast”: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Duncan-Jordan. At least he seems honest.

Duncan-Jordan is MP for Poole, which was the lady’s ex-husband’s seat until he lost it by only 18 votes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Duncan-Jordan#Electoral_record.

What might happen in (?) 2029 at Poole is anyone’s guess. Maybe a Reform win, maybe not.

System politics must age people. That Labour MP is apparently about 13 years younger than me, yet (to be frank) looks 10+ years older.

Yet GB News is certainly “biased and tribal” in one way— the (((usual))) way…

I agree with that. I also think, however, that women should not box other women either. Socially inappropriate. Martial arts such as taekwando, karate etc? That is a bit different, in my view. Grey area.

For me, Farage and Reform are only “on the way”, not the —or a— destination. I wish them well, though, in the short term.

…or, indeed, my own “case” (see this blog, above). Toby Young, the “Free Speech Union”, Matt Goodwin, Katie Hopkins etc, all the “controlled opposition” dissidents, are effectively in the pocket of (((the usual suspects))). Which is why they are “allowed” to hold public events, fundraise, get money, get onto TV etc.

I missed that tweet from a few days ago. Jews brutalizing Palestinian Arabs in one of their new Jew-Zionist concentration camps in and about Gaza.

Not 100% accurate. I was not imprisoned after my free speech trial ended in conviction in November 2023 (sentence passed in March 2024). I was not even given a suspended sentence. I was given a financial penalty (fine and costs) amounting to about £740, and a “community order” of 15 “rehabilitation days” over 9 months, which in the end was finished (effectively though not officially) after about 5 months, and which basically consisted in my having about 6 or 7 chats (from 20 minutes to over 2 hours in duration, mostly about 30 minutes or so) with a rather charming and polite young lady from the Probation Service.

Something for the Israelis to worry about.

He’s a crazie.

From time to time, the British Army comes up with crazy mavericks of Kemp’s sort. Orde Wingate. “Mad Mitch” Mitchell. Others. They rarely get to the higher ranks, though Kemp (pro-Israel to the hilt— quelle surprise…) did make full colonel, “Mad Mitch” Mitchell reached half-colonel, and Wingate was made up to major-general during WW2 (though at one point demoted to major).

Wingate was a very pro-Jew officer, who shot Arab civilians out of hand in then-British-ruled Palestine, and tortured many as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orde_Wingate#Palestine_and_the_Special_Night_Squads.

(so much for their claims to be ancient, or to have any real connection to the Jews or Israelites mentioned in the Bible)…

Here’s how all Zionist arguments collapse upon the slightest examination: “We were here first”: no, the Canaanites were, and many Palestinians have Canaanite DNA (& Jewish DNA as well, per Ben Gurion himself). Now prove yourself each of you is a direct descendant of someone who inhabited this land!

“We’re returning to our homeland” so said the French & Italians in Libya & Algeria “we are returning to & recovering Roman lands.” “But the West Bank is ours b/c of the bible”, that’s not how international law works, its utmost principle is a prohibition on acquisition of territory by force; i.e. you can’t just steal land by conquest & military power anymore!

“God promised it to us”; a) good luck arguing this in court. B) then why did he take it away from you for 2000 years? “We had a Jewish kingdom on this land for about 250 years”: and Muslims have been sovereign on this land for 1400 years! Does Greece have a right today to occupy Turkey’s Istanbul/Constantinople b/c it was once part of the Byzantine empire?

“The world gave us Israel in 1947”: no they didn’t & they don’t have the right to! The UN then had only 57 members out of 193 member states today. Even then, & despite intense US/Zionist lobbying & intimidation, only 33 states voted for (mostly white) the Partition Plan as a proposal. The partition resolution was never voted on at the UN Security Council.

“But we were persecuted in Europe for centuries culminating with the Holocaust”: but why should I pay the price of European savagery & antisemitism?

“We have a right to return 2,000 years later”, then why doesn’t my grandma have that right only 76 years later?

That’s why no state has a “right to exist”. Because who/what gave them that right?

Despite all this, Palestinians unrequitedly recognised Israel over 3 decades ago, accepted its existence as a fait accompli, & accepted less than 22% of our homeland; & that is called today “Palestinian maximalism/rejectionism”, while Israel offering us caged bantustans worse than apartheid South Africa is call “a generous offer”!

[Ashkenazic Jews in Jerusalem, c. 1885. God’s sake! Just look at them!]

New research suggests that the majority of the world’s modern Jewish population is descended mainly from people from ancient Turkey, rather than predominantly from elsewhere in the Middle East.

The new research suggests that most of the Jewish population of northern and eastern Europe – normally known as Ashkenazic Jews – are the descendants of Greeks, Iranians and others who colonized what is now northern Turkey more than 2000 years ago and were then converted to Judaism, probably in the first few centuries AD by Jews from Persia. At that stage, the Persian Empire was home to the world’s largest Jewish communities.

According to research carried out by the geneticist, Dr Eran Elhaik of the University of Sheffield, over 90 per cent of Ashkenazic ancestors come from that converted partially Greek-originating ancient community in north-east Turkey.

Could Starmer’s Labour Friends of Israel Cabinet be less competent?

It has already, after 6 months, got to the point where it is glaringly obvious that this fake “Labour” government has no more competence, indeed maybe even less, than had those of Sunak, Truss, “Boris”-idiot, May, and Cameron-Levita.

Interesting. The best aspect of that, were it to happen, would be the dismay amid the “woke” rabble of new Starmer-Labour MPs, over 150 of them, as they lose their seats and are forced to contemplate having to go back to doing mundane and probably badly-paid jobs again.

[American-oriented but still relevant to British socio-political attitudes]

Europe’s largest economies, from 1961 to 2024. Interesting to see how some of the countries have improved or downgraded. Turkey, in particular, registered growth in the mid-sections of the list; East Germany/DDR was fairly high until the 1980s, when it fell like a stone. West Germany was high, and indeed at the top even before it absorbed the Eastern part in the 1990s, and has been pre-eminent since then. The Soviet Union as a whole was the largest economy overall for some time, but fell back in the 1980s, after which Russia started to climb, despite missing the other former Soviet republics, and has for some time been one of the five strongest economies (overall), in the top five. The UK has been in the top five consistently.

Of course, were that graphic to be expressed per capita rather than in gross terms, the situation would look very different.

Even after the Art Deco era, America was pre-eminent in terms of confident presentation at least, until the 1960s. Look, e.g., at a film such as North by Northwest (1959), with its ambience of, inter alia, Modern Movement architecture, as well as, later in the film, the influence of Frank Lloyd Wright.

That refers to the egregiously poor, dishonest, and negligent behaviour exhibited by “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, who is now supposedly domiciled in Israel, though he seems to spend much of his time in the UK, either making money out of clients (who seem rather poorly served), or thinking up stunts to publicize “antisemitism” and at the same time make money out of possible “compensation” (as in the failed stunt at the Reginald D. Hunter show at the Edinburgh Fringe this year, when he cooked up a plot with his wife, Mandy Blumenthal, and Daily Mail junior scribbler Sabrina Miller). See

That idiot seriously thinks that Britain was “dominant“, internationally, about 24 years ago! What planet is he on? Britain was then not only within the trammels of the EU etc, but was the “poodle” of the then Bush jnr. administration in the United States.

It really is about time that the British people demanded a lot more from the “security and intelligence” bods, or just dumped them, or most of them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Younger.

What has weakened Britain has been a combination of the migration-invasion, together with the changing demographics of the UK, the sliding standards in all areas of society, cultural degeneration, and the domination of the UK’s government, political life, courts, policing and mass media, inter alia, by the Israel lobby. Oh, and the near-collapse and uselessness of our armed forces (etc).

The “CAA” cabal, effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London, can be called (as blogged about in the past) a malicious little cabal. They threaten a lot, suborn police and CPS officials, are a damned nuisance, but accomplish little even by their own standards.

They should not, of course, be treated as a charity. For one thing, they are directly political; for another, the activity of the “CAA” exhibits no “public benefit”.

Is that true (about Myerson being a heavy drinker)? I have no idea, though if true it might partly explain his vituperative social media activity, which was at least part of the reason he was sacked (sub nomresigned”) as a Recorder earlier in 2024. He certainly seems to stay up late, tweeting. Drinking too? As I say, I have no idea.

“Israel” is not just that small country in the Middle East; it is also a global web consisting of the worldwide Jewish-Zionist lobby, and also those in public life whom that lobby has bought or otherwise suborned. Look at the UK. Both remaining contenders for the Conservative Party leadership are Israel-lobby puppets, as is the present “Labour” Prime Minister, “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer, and also his close colleagues (such as Rachel Reeves and Yvette Cooper).

A city at migration breaking point: An unvarnished dispatch from Coventry – which saw over 22,000 arrivals from overseas in a single year – exposes how housing, schools and GPs are being placed under unbearable strain.

Another development has already started in Bennetts Road in the suburbs of Coventry. ‘There were green fields as far as the eye could see,’ said Gillian Collinge, a former Home Office official.

Today the once idyllic vista is scarred by a brutal two-metre-high security fence just feet from the back gardens of their homes, which have names such as Springfield Cottage, Lilac House and Harefield.

Beyond the metal perimeter are diggers, mud, noise and men in high-viz jackets.

‘It’s absolutely heartbreaking,’ added Gillian, who lives next to the chaos with husband Peter, also 66, a retired software engineer.

The building site – until just over a year ago a green-belt haven for wildlife – is now the location for 3,200 new houses. More than 500 have already sprung up.

All very reasonable, at first blush. Helps citizens, saves public money etc. However, this may well be one of the first steps to microchips implanted under the skin. Anyone refusing to have one will not be punished directly, at least not at first, but will simply be cut off from accessing most health services. Later, perhaps cut off from receiving State benefits, even pensions. Then, once most people are on the system, your beliefs and political activities will be added to the mix. The “racist“, “antisemitic” etc will be cut off from services and State financial help, and be even more marginalized for their views etc. After that, taken into “protective custody”…

Most schools, most of the time, are just useless. For the mass, a school is a place where children are “warehoused” during the day while the parents are (both?) at work making money (mostly for someone else).

A good example, the above Twitter/X thread, of the ever-more-apparent split in the UK between those who see the realities and those who choose not to see them. The fact is that Winter Fuel Payment is or was a great boon to pensioners, and now huge numbers of them are going to be deprived of it; both those who are entitled to apply for Pension Credit but have not done so and those who are above (often not far above) the Pension Credit capital or income cut-off points, and will therefore not now be given WFP.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13980181/desperate-ukrainian-men-hiding-houses-army-russia.html

Desperate Ukrainian men have resorted to hiding in their houses for up to eight months just to avoid fighting Russia.

Stories include missing a daughter’s birth, avoiding public transport, and not attending weddings – all to get out of being conscripted into the Ukrainian military.

This comes as Ukraine is on the look-out for more fighters as it has struggled to replenish its army while thousands of soldiers from North Korea join Russia.

Roman, 33, an entrepreneur in Lviv, said he pays $1,000 a month to receive an exemption. 

He explained: ‘Eighty per cent of my friends who went to fight have been killed and I don’t want to join them. By now we all know what happens.

‘I am lucky I have money and my own business so don’t need to be on public transport or in places where the mobilisation gangs operate. I don’t go to restaurants or weddings.’

Desertions from the Ukraine army are at an all-time high since the recent escalation of conflict began in 2022.

This comes as Ukraine passed a controversial new law in May that requires every man of draft age — 25 to 60 — to register so they can be called up.

Near the end of that clip, a (presumably Jewish) woman shouts out “racist” at the old woman shown. Voice very similar to that of Mandy Blumenthal, the wife of negligent/dishonest solicitor and Israel fanatic Mark Lewis.

Mandy Blumenthal shouted out, at the audience, something similar during her recent attempted Jew-Zionist scam and political stunt at the Edinburgh Fringe show of Reginald D. Hunter.

Were they there, at the above-shown demonstration?

Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who seems to have got 5/10 (though he claims another two-thirds for having got two out of the three parts of question no. 7). I scored 7/10, but did not know the answers to questions 2, 4, and 8. I admit that my correct answer to question 9 was an educated guess.

It is not impossible to have a “peaceful” (though probably not “lawful“) revolution (it happened that way in the DDR —East Germany— and in the pribaltika or Baltic states in 1989; also in Hungary and elsewhere); it is just unlikely in the British context (the country having been filled with hostile non-Europeans)…

Wow! Huge front page story this morning by @Nadav_Eyal.

The head of the Shabak, Ronen Bar, explicitly warned Netanyahu about an impending war. Albeit without specifics. Netanyahu did Netanyahu and brushed it aside. He failed to instruct the defense establishment to prepare for war. The defense establishment and intelligence community failed to fine tune the warning. This failure is strategic, operational and tactical. The leadership must be held accountable.

[Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, Israeli Army (Reserves)— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDF_Spokesperson%27s_Unit#International_Media_Branch]

The story is of significance far beyond the borders of Israel/Palestine.

Incidentally, “Shabak” is another name for Shin Beth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_Bet.

As readers of the blog will know, I am generally hostile to the Israeli state (mainly because it is at least one major hub of the worldwide Jewish/Zionist lobby). However, my nuanced opposition to the Israeli state (and the fact that I feel sorry for the Palestinian Arabs under Jewish/Israeli exploitation, repression and attack) does not mean that I am “favourable” to the various Muslim Arab and other states of the region.

Good, though not as good as just putting them up against a wall.

The problems of the Weimar Republic in the 1920s and early 1930s were, at root, very similar, to the problems, most of them, that face the UK, the rest of Western and Central Europe, North America and Australasia today.

We have a few more problems, yes, but the root causes are the same.

Trump is still the better choice in terms of preventing a nuclear war, which for me is the number one priority.

Obviously, Kamala Harris is basically an idiot and a mere puppet of the “Deep State”, so she will, if elected President, be controlled by more powerful minds than her own, which might be the better idea… (and I note that the US now seems to be reining back on the “war with Russia” moves— the USA would be a scarred, irradiated and lawless dystopia indeed, were its 50-100 top cities to be blasted off the face of the Earth).

I do wonder about the mentality of intending Harris voters though, even accepting that Trump is not really a good candidate either. I should say that it comes down to perceived identity: blacks and other non-whites will vote Kamala Harris because she is non-white, simple as that. Likewise, crazed feminism is so strong in the USA, and has been for at least 50 years, that many women will vote for Kamala Harris merely because she is a woman.

They call it “democracy”, apparently (see also https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/15/has-parliamentary-democracy-as-we-have-known-it-until-now-had-its-day-in-the-uk/).

Ukrainians no longer want to fight for Zelensky’s Jewish/Zionist dictatorship (not the intelligent ones, anyway).

This cat and mouse game being played by Iran is clever, as far as it goes. A kind of oblique cold warfare which is collapsing the Israeli economy, collapsing whatever Israeli-public confidence in the Netanyahu government remains in place, and causing many of the Israelis to have a nervous breakdown or to (temporarily?) abandon the country— as Mark Lewis, the egregiously dishonest Zionist solicitor and his wife, Mandy Blumenthal, seem to have done. It must be safer here in “antisemitic” England (or Scotland) after all…

Seems that Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal have now left the Edinburgh Fringe, where they tried to have an American black comedian “cancelled” and even arrested, but failed, themselves being laughed and booed out of the theatre where they had staged an incident, no doubt partly so that they would later be able to claim some kind of substantial monetary “compensation”, as they had done before, notably in relation to Kuwait Airways. https://www.thejc.com/news/kuwait-airways-pays-damages-to-woman-barred-from-buying-ticket-at-heathrow-for-being-israeli-c1vcjc8o.

Incidentally, read that Jewish Chronicle report. It says that Mandy Blumenthal filmed herself trying to buy the ticket. What normal passenger does that? Anyway, it is clear that (((other persons))) were doing the filming and, indeed, doing so covertly. She, despite being a UK passport-holder, deliberately used her other, Israeli, passport, so that she could make a fake claim, and so make money out of the refusal to accept her Israeli passport.

Note how, in the full video (shown in that Jewish Chronicle report) she also makes a false claim that the poor ticket sales fellow is “racially abusing” her. Seems to be an ingrained trait.

So Mandy Blumenthal received “substantial damages“…I wonder. £10,000? £20,000? More?

Of course the lawyers involved on her side all eventually received fat fees too, because Kuwait Airways also agreed to pay her “full” legal costs.

A total scam. At least this time they were caught out.

As I noted yesterday, I was quite surprised to see how immobile Lewis now is (by reason of multiple sclerosis). I might feel sorry for almost anyone else who is so afflicted physically (it may also affect him mentally, he being or having been on powerful drugs) but Lewis has been co-ordinating persecution of me by the Jew-Zionist lobby in the UK for about 12 years now, so any reserves of compassion I may have will be directed to others, others frankly more worthy.

Lewis is or was a “director” of “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”], which was behind the complaint about me to the Bar Standards Board [BSB], in 2014, which resulted in my wrongful and actually unlawful disbarment in late 2016 (8+ years after I had ceased active practice at the Bar). A typically malicious political stunt. See below:

Simultaneously, Lewis was and still is a leading light of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], a Jew-Zionist organization so unpleasant that other Jewish and Zionist organizations avoid it, as was seen not long ago when its “chief executive”, Gideon Falter, tried to create another “antisemitism” scandal in Central London: see https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/apr/22/met-officer-antisemitism-campaigner-gideon-falter-longer-video-sky-news.

https://www.theguardian.com/news/2024/apr/26/who-is-the-caa-gideon-falter-met-police-openly-jewish-antisemitism-row

longer version of the clip released later shows the officer explaining to Falter that his approach was informed by the knowledge he had already deliberately walked out into the middle of the march and was therefore “looking to try and antagonise this”.

John Mann, the government’s antisemitism tsar, said Falter had been “quite explicit” about his intentions at the protest. “There’s no ambiguity in what he’s doing,” he told the BBC, saying he had been blocked by the CAA on the social media platform X and they were “not playing it straight”.

[Guardian]

Falter crowed mightily in the “sympathetic” sections of the (((Press))) and (((TV))) after my 2016 disbarment. After his 2024 Central London stunt failed, even quite vociferously pro-Israel individuals, such as David Aaronovitch (himself actually only half-Jewish, despite the name) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Aaronovitch], heavily criticized Falter and the “CAA”:

Lewis has been making, with others, malicious behind-the-scenes attempts, since 2012, to have me investigated and even charged by the police. I am aware of some of the details, incidentally. In fact, he was working, partly, in conjunction with an equally-malicious “CAA” Israel fanatic, Stephen Silverman (“CAA” “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”), and others (some now defunct) for years, trying to “get” me.

Several times over the past decade, police constables (in their new role as a poundshop Stasi), or those PCSO play-police (ditto), have come to my door, but I have never been arrested by any of them (the PCSOs have no specific power of arrest anyway).

I was “invited” (required) to attend an interview a couple of times: see, e.g.

As readers can see, that attempt to have me charged failed.

The “CAA” sub-terrorists then, in 2017-2018, pressured the then Director of Public Prosecutions and the then Attorney-General to have me charged with “incitement to racial hatred”, a charge which requires the assent of the A-G. No dice.

The “CAA” and its cohorts had already pressured (pre-Elon Musk) Twitter to have my popular Twitter account shut down. It was shut down (in 2018) but, silver-lining time, the deletion of the Twitter account meant that the “Clown” Prosecution Service could not acquire the evidence to ground any such proposed “racial incitement” charge. The “CAA” idiots had shot themselves in the foot.

Incidentally, the ear of the then DPP was bent by Israel-lobby fanatic and then MP, Ian Austin, who wrote demanding my prosecution.

Now in the House of Lords, Austin once or twice tweeted that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized.

One of the few who actually supported Austin publicly was none other than Bristol University Jewish student girl Sabrina Miller, now scribbling fake news at the Daily Mail, fake news such as the recent contrived tale of the “victimized Israeli couple, Shimon and Talia“, who however were then unmasked as being Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal. Small world…

That did not stop Silverman and Lewis (etc), though.

The former made a completely false accusation against me in 2021, alleging that I had “racially-abused” him, something that was not only false, but in fact impossible, because I did not know his address or telephone number, had never seen him in person, and had no Twitter account (and had never once written, posted, or spoken to him). In fact, there was simply no evidence against me at all, but the suborned or compliant police of two counties still “invited” (required) me to an interview under caution: see

I still do not understand why Silverman was not charged with “wasting police time” or why he has also never been charged with the far more serious (indictable) offence of (attempted) perversion of the course of justice (there is actually no distinction). He is plainly guilty, having made a provably false criminal accusation against me. I suppose that “they” just get a free pass much of the time.

An account of my free speech trial last year (under the notoriously bad law of the Communications Act 2003, s.127, recommended for repeal by the Law Commission), my prosecution having been once again instigated by the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (Silverman):

Incidentally, Silverman actually turned up to gloat on both my day of trial in November 2023, and my days (there was an adjournment of a week or two) of sentencing in March 2024. He scuttled off pretty quickly after the sentence was handed down, and later tweeted (sub nom “CAA”) at how disgusting it was that I was not given a harsher sentence.

The aftermath:

Almost exactly what not only is my view but was my view expressed on the blog long before GE 2024, though I disagree that the Con misgovernment was the lesser evil. Pretty much the same in most respects. People did not want fake Labour, Starmer-Labour, but they wanted to bin the fake “Conservatives” more.

As said repeatedly (and it needs to be repeated), Starmer-Labour has no real mandate because, regardless of the large number of seats bequeathed by a ridiculous electoral system, only 4 out of every 12 voters that voted, voted Labour; indeed, only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters, because only 12 people out of every 20 eligible voters actually voted.

Even on the conservative basis of 4 out of 12 (33.7%), Labour really has no mandate to do all sorts of absurdly dictatorial things.

All part of the “blacks with everything” propaganda. Been going on for years now. Actual blacks are “only” about 4% of the UK population; even if you add in “browns” and others, the white (formerly known as English) population of the UK is still as much as 80% of the UK population, yet almost all the new faces on TV news and discussion shows are now non-white. A deliberate virtual “white genocide”.

[“Off with their heads!“]

Morning music

The overcrowded prisons, the aftermath of the recent protests, and about real criminals released early

There are nuances in the situation, and a few minor objections might be made to that amiable rant, but fundamentally he is right. Even the Guardian admits it: https://www.theguardian.com/society/article/2024/aug/17/fresh-uk-prisons-crisis-as-riots-lead-to-fears-of-overcrowding.

Basically, 1,000+ people have now been arrested following the recent protests and connected minor “riots” (or violent outbreaks) here and there.

Many of those people have been charged, and many of those have been remanded in custody, meaning put into prison until trial (which might be as long as a year or more later, unless fast-tracked). Those who have pleaded guilty so far mostly seem to have been imprisoned anyway.

The fact is that many (probably almost all) of those imprisoned, either pending trial or after having pleaded guilty, are not in any way, even in the lay sense, “dangerous”. Many have no previous convictions, and even those who do (and the sentences of which have been reported after guilty pleas) have convictions mainly for non-violent offences (shoplifting, drugs etc).

What Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and (absurdly) Shabana Mahmood, have done is to release known and active criminals early (many non-white, and after they have completed only 40% of their sentences), in order to free up space which is now being used to incarcerate English people who are, almost all, not active criminals.

Those released early under that scheme will, many of them, re-offend within a fairly short space of time, whereas relatively few of those arrested in the aftermath of the recent protests will re-offend at all, ever, and certainly not in terms of violent disorder. That of course applies even more to those arrested/charged/imprisoned because they merely made comments, justified or otherwise, on social media.

It is beginning to look very much as though Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and the ridiculous Shabana Mahmood (currently posing as “Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice) have no idea what they are doing. To me, their over-reaction to the recent minor disorders that took place (by English people— those done by Roma Gypsies in Leeds, and Pakistanis in Birmingham etc, have gone largely unpunished) seems much like that of the Queen of Hearts in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: “Off with their heads!

[“Off with their heads!“]

Incidentally, was there ever a “Lord Chancellor” and Justice Secretary less qualified? A moot point after some in recent years, I concede. However, Shabana Mahmood is an absurd choice for the role. She was only at the practising Bar for a few months, if that (after a year of pupillage), and then worked as a salaried gopher in a firm of solicitors, and only for a couple of years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabana_Mahmood#Early_life_and_career.

Shabana Mahmood’s entire legal career only lasted about 3-4 years.

She was probably appointed to placate the Pakistani Muslim element in the UK.

Pakistanis as such are now about 3% of the population; Muslims as a whole (many of which are also Pakistani but born in the UK) comprise 6% of the UK population now. Both anyway are significant voting blocs, and important in general political terms.

Kursk incursion

https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/aug/18/zelenskiy-ukraine-shock-russia-offensive-incursion

Nearly early two weeks after its surprise incursion into Russia, Ukraine finds itself struggling to find a balance between seizing territory across the border in Kursk and losing it at the heart of the eastern front in central Donetsk.

On Friday, Ukraine’s commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, claimed advances were being made of up to two miles a day inside Russia, but Moscow’s forces have gained about three miles this month as the Kremlin bets heavily on capturing the hub of Pokrovsk.

In Pokrovsk, meanwhile, officials have stepped up civilian evacuations. Serhiy Dobryak, head of the city military administration, warned that Russian forces had “almost approached” the city and that alarm about its future was growing.

Until a year ago, Pokrovsk was considered safe enough to act as a regional base where journalists and aid workers could stay overnight. Its road and rail connections link the central city of Dnipro with Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Capturing it would in effect cut the part of Donetsk oblast still in Ukrainian hands in two.

There are persistent rumours that Col Emil Ishkulov, the popular commander of Ukraine’s 80th brigade, now among those involved in the incursion into Kursk, was removed from his position at the end of July because he was opposed to the incursion into Russia – unsure his unit had the strength for the task. At the time, soldiers from the unit issued an unsuccessful public appeal for him to be reinstated.

Sumy, which has a population of about 250,000, has remained busy and lively in the summer heat, though the noise of explosions from Russian glide bombs in the distance stepped up over last week. Its hospitals, though, have been filling up with frontline casualties, and an appeals for blood donations went out to help treat wounded soldiers a week ago. It took an hour for the need to be met.

The city has also received about 4,000 people fleeing the agricultural villages in the area towards the border in the north, many of whom plan to rent apartments.

In the border zone, six miles from the boundary, meanwhile, only a tiny handful of civilians and little functioning infrastructure remain. One shop with smashed windows was still selling groceries, but most places were boarded up. An aid agency, Global Empowerment Mission, supplies nearly 26,000 food rations every month because market supplies are absent, visiting frontline villages every week to distribute to the remaining population.

[Guardian]

I recently examined this situation on the blog. My thoughts were that either Putin might push the incursion forces back using conventional military means, or blast the entire area from the air, destroying the Kiev-regime forces (as well as any unfortunate Russian and Ukrainian villagers still trying to live there).

Another possibility, less likely, would be a massive bombardment of either Kharkov or Kiev, using bombers and missiles.

Now, I have come to think that there is a fourth possibility, one which has roots in Russian and Soviet history.

When, as Tolstoy put it, in War and Peace, “the forces of Western Europe invaded Russia” in 1812 (the forces commanded by Napoleon were not all French, though about two-thirds were), the strategy adopted by the Russian leadership under Kutuzov, once he was appointed, was to withdraw and withdraw out of reach, while carrying out some limited flanking attacks and what we might now term “special operations”.

According to the preferred strategy, St. Petersburg, the capital, was protected both by troops and by distance, and so was never threatened by the Grande Armee. Moscow, however, was abandoned and set on fire.

Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow was famously disastrous, his armies all but destroyed by attritional flank attacks, cold, lack of food, and by disease.

Of the initial half million men, only about 100,000 made it back to France or other countries.

On 24 June 1812 and subsequent days, the initial wave of the multinational Grande Armée crossed the Niemen River, marking the entry from the Duchy of Warsaw into Russia.

Employing extensive forced marches, Napoleon rapidly advanced his army of nearly half a million individuals through Western Russia, encompassing present-day Belarus, in a bid to dismantle the disparate Russian forces led by Barclay de Tolly and Pyotr Bagration totaling approximately 180,000–220,000 soldiers at that juncture.[21][22]

Despite losing half of his men within six weeks due to extreme weather conditions, diseases and scarcity of provisions, Napoleon emerged victorious in the Battle of Smolensk. However, the Russian Army, now commanded by Mikhail Kutuzov, opted for a strategic retreat, employing attrition warfare against Napoleon compelling the invaders to rely on an inadequate supply system, incapable of sustaining their vast army in the field.

[Wikipedia]

In the German invasion and war of 1941-1945, the Wehrmacht advanced to within sight of central Moscow, but were then held and pushed back. Stalin was unwilling to abandon Moscow, the capital, for reasons of morale and administration.

However, elsewhere in European Russia, the Stavka (high command) allowed the Germans to advance and advance into the apparently limitless space (prostor, in the Russian word), as the German supply lines became elongated and eventually unable to supply enough food and ammunition; this came to a head particularly during the battle for Stalingrad.

Reverting to the Kursk situation in 2024, it can be seen that the operation was designed by Zelensky, against the advice of some of his commanders, as a public relations exercise. The suppliers of arms and vast amounts of Western taxpayers’ money had to be shown that the Kiev-regime forces were not beaten. Those forces achieved surprise, and, at first, considerable success.

The area presently held seems to be less than 1,000 sq. km: https://www.ft.com/content/84c60abe-1eab-4440-8511-c13218c7bbe7. That is rather more than twice the size of the Isle of Wight.

The Kiev-regime forces were advancing several miles a day in that Kursk border region, but have probably now almost stopped.

Russian forces far to the south, in the Donbass, are advancing 1-3 miles a day, apparently. The Kiev-regime forces are outmannned and outgunned there, a situation made worse by the use of some experienced Ukrainian troops for the Kursk incursion.

What Putin could do (though it might be politically difficult) would be to do little but just about hold the line in the Kursk region, or even fall back on Kursk city (about 30-40 miles from the present front-line), while pounding the Kiev-regime supply lines and rear echelon areas. The Kiev regime forces do not have the manpower or ammunition etc to advance endlessly. Their tide may already have reached its fullest extent.

In other words, Putin could almost let those Kiev-regime forces in the Kursk region “die on the vine”, in MacArthur’s memorable phrase.

Once those Kiev regime forces are stuck in the Kursk region, or have retreated, or are destroyed, those forces will not be able to be deployed, or re-deployed, on the Donbass front. Even now, it looks as though Russian forces will soon split the Kiev-regime forces there into two. Once that results in further crumbling of the front, startling Russian advances may be seen, either in the next few months or next summer. All of Eastern Ukraine may fall to Russian forces in 2025.

I attended that carnival once, out of curiosity. In the early or mid 1980s. Absolutely ghastly. Intolerable noise, mostly from horrible amplified “music”. Intolerable crowds. Also, no way of getting out without walking miles. In the end, I walked all the way back to Little Venice.

Another strange Mark Lewis tale

So it seems that the “poor and victimized” Jewish couple, supposedly targeted by an American black comedian, then booed out of an Edinburgh Fringe comedy show by the irritated audience, were none other than Mark Lewis, the egregious self-promoting solicitor, and his wife/partner/carer Mandy Blumenthal. They made a big fuss about emigrating to Israel six years ago. They said that Britain was too “antisemitic” for them to remain here, and so were, in effect, getting out while they could.

A pack of lies. They spend quite a bit of time here, and do not seem to feel any obligation to stay and help Israel in its hour of need.

If those tweets by Reginald D. Hunter are true (accurate), that puts another complexion on the “victimized Jewish couple” story as first published and broadcast recently.

First of all, one has to ask why Lewis and his companion went to such a show in the first place, if the comedian, one Reginald D. Hunter, is known for being “antisemitic” (I have to admit that I had never heard of him at all).

What was their motive even for going there if they were aware of the comedian’s expressed views?

It will be remembered by some that Mandy Blumenthal deliberately tried to book passage, quite many years ago, on a Middle Eastern airline operating out of Heathrow, and made it known that she was Jewish (perhaps using her Israeli passport rather than her UK one). Once refused by the airline, a “typical” fuss was made, both at the airport and in the (((Press))), and the airline quickly stumped up, apparently, quite a few thousand pounds by way of “compensation” (to shut her up).

Is this yet another cynical way to get money, this time out of the comedian, the promoter or the theatre? Was the whole thing contrived in advance, like that airline scam, or not? We do not know, and can only try to draw logical conclusions from what we know.

Incidentally, here is the Times of Israel report about the airline “compensation” scam: https://www.timesofisrael.com/kuwait-air-to-compensate-israeli-for-refusing-to-fly-her-report/. It makes clear that lawyers from “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”] helped Mandy Blumenthal to make her claim, which resulted in her receiving “substantial damages“.

Mark Lewis is —quelle surprise— a member, indeed perhaps even a leading member, of UKLFI, as well as the notorious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], both of which have been involved in attacking me over recent years (since 2014): see, eg, https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/13/when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/ and https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

Reading about what the comedian said on stage, it seems that he recognized the “anonymous” Jewish couple of the Press stories, and that that is why he said that he had been “waiting” for Lewis, assuming that it was Lewis, to turn up:

During the furore, Hunter, 55, appeared to double down on his initial joke, telling the couple: “I’ve been waiting for you all summer, where the f*** you been?” [Jewish Chronicle]. https://www.thejc.com/news/uk/israeli-couple-hounded-out-of-reginald-d-hunter-fringe-show-as-he-makes-jokes-about-jews-g6dtt4ip.

Lewis has been in considerable legal trouble recently: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/07/26/diary-blog-26-july-2024-including-the-latest-news-about-the-unprofessional-behaviour-of-mark-lewis-lawyer/.

As for his previous history, the blog post below covers, or has links about, Lewis’s previous and rather inglorious activities: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/11/update-re-mark-lewis-lawyer-questions-are-raised/.

That’s even before one considers the way in which he treated his ex-wife, one-time low-level TV face, and radio voice (now washed-up and over the hill), Caroline Feraday. I have little time for her anyway, so let’s leave that aside for now (she joined with Lewis in abusing me very unpleasantly on Twitter, about 12 years ago, so she deserved to suffer once she married him, in my view).

As for that Daily Mail scribbler who claims to have “tracked down” the “Jewish couple”, that is none other than Sabrina Miller, who was at the centre of the contrived storm around anti-Zionist academic Dr. David Miller [https://x.com/Tracking_Power] formerly of Bristol University, who was sacked but later won at an employment tribunal: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/02/05/bristol-university-professor-discrimination-anti-zionist/; and https://www.gbnews.com/news/anti-zionist-professor-wins-landmark-case-against-unfair-dismissal-video.

Sabrina Miller, when a vociferous Jewish girl student at Bristol, found time to defend Jewish-lobby-puppet and then-MP, Ian Austin, who had tweeted that bestiality pornography and other similar material should be decriminalized. Now she is a “journalist” with the Daily Mail.

The Mail might not have the best reputation, but it really should draw the line at contrived “stories” such as this Edinburgh Fringe scam.

Looks to me as though the audience recognized Lewis specifically, and were loudly disapproving for that reason.

As for the comedian, the promoter (if any), and the theatre, they should resist any contrived legal claim that “any” ambulance-chaser might make…

More tweets seen

This all makes me feel that “a certain person” was right (about “them”)…

Lewis must be desperate to invent a case…

The Daily Mail should sack Sabrina Miller. Jews always demand sackings for far less default, so what is good for the goose, etc…

As I surmised.

(((Typical)))

[Mandy Blumenthal screeches at the comedian Reginald Hunter, while washed-up Israel fanatic Lewis supports her aggressive rant]

Looks like the pair will not be getting a pay-off this time…

[what horrible “people”, if such is the bon mot]

Looks as if I guessed correctly…

What does Starmer think those imprisoned protesters, tweeters, Facebook posters feel about the UK government of traitors now? Happy? Angry? Determined?

God help John Betjeman, were he still alive. “Come, friendly German bombers, and drop your bombs on Slough“… he would probably be arrested by the “Anti-Terror Command” or other poundshop UK Stasi police, and/or imprisoned for years.

Almost anything now published or spoken by msm scribblers and talking heads can be discounted. If they ever cross the line into uncomfortable and “unapproved” reality, they soon lose those lucrative jobs— and they know it.

All in the Donbass, where Russian forces are now steadily advancing at a rate of up to 3 miles per day.

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose this war.
