The figures for age groups under 40 are problematic, because a fairly substantial minority are non-white so, in any real sense, non-Brit to start with.
Drones such as Barry Gardiner represent another world, another parallel thought-world, and one that has little to do with the British people. Completely out of touch.
A simple DNA test comparison on “Boris”-idiot and Charlotte Owen would put at least one out of the two most likely theories to bed, so to speak.

It would be interesting to know the true rate or figures of desertions from the Kiev-regime forces, say in the past three months. Enormous, probably. Thousands. Maybe tens of thousands.
Zelensky’s Jew-Zionist dictatorship combines shambolic inability, corruption, and brutality. It is doomed.
“A pensioner was visited by armed police at his house after ‘jokingly’ asking a Barclays bank agent whether he needed to walk into a branch with ‘a bomb strapped to my shirt to get some attention’.
Eric Trim, 75, from Royston, Hertfordshire, was mystified after discovering that his £14,000 bank account was closed due to inactivity just weeks before Christmas.
The pensioner was forced to take out a loan to buy Christmas presents for his children and grandchildren before spending more than four hours on the phone to various different Barclays agents to resolve the issue.
After feeling as though he was getting ‘nowhere’ with each representative, he snapped in frustration and in a ‘tongue-in-cheek way’ said he will ‘walk into your bank in Cambridge’ and ‘tell them I’ve got a bomb strapped to my shirt to get your attention.’
Just two weeks later, two armed police officers arrived at his house to arrest him and suspended his firearms licence due to him being listed as a ‘threat’.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, the 75-year-old slammed Barclays bank for showing ‘no care’ towards him and questioned whether Britain has become a ‘police state’ after the officers arrived at his door.“
[Daily Mail]
That report just typifies so much about how Britain now operates.
Someone’s bank account closed down for no good reason.
The inability of a huge and profitable company (in this case, Barclay’s Bank) to deal with a simple enquiry and matter.
The afraid-of-their-own-shadows Barclay’s employees, who obviously ticked some kind of box as an excuse for their own incompetence and the bank’s inability to operate in a customer-friendly way.
Or maybe, the bank drones were the kind of idiots who, during the 2020-2022 “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, reported people for not wearing a facemask muzzle etc.
Finally, the equally-boxticking behaviour of the police plods, who obviously did not really believe that the bank customer was “a threat“, looking at how they took two weeks after complaint was made to go to his house and arrest him (and then justified their unnecessary arrest by ticking another box and suspending his shotgun licence; thus they can now close the case with “appropriate action” having been, supposedly, taken…).
The fact that the police arrived and rang the doorbell, when they supposedly viewed the poor chap as “a threat” who had a shotgun as well as, in the Barclays/police fantasy, a bomb, says it all.
Pathetic.
As to whether Britain has become a “police state”, yes it has, though (so far) mainly a pathetic velvet-glove one, and one which attacks mainly decent citizens, not the rabble who should be dealt with.
Vladimir Zelensky could face a reduction in financial support from the European Union due to the negative consequences that Europe began to face after the suspension of Russian gas transit through Ukraine, Forbes writes.

“…the highest levels of government“? I suppose that System scribbler Nicholas Watt [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicholas_Watt] means would-be dictator Starmer and his cronies, pathetic jokers such as Rachel Reeves and Yvette Cooper, and maybe thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner, not forgetting equally-thick “diversity hire” idiot, David Lammy.
What I look upon with “horror” is, inter alia, the fact that only someone such as Elon Musk, someone outside the jurisdiction of the poundland police state that Britain has become and/or is becoming, can speak out on a number of very important issues, such as —only one example— the Pakistani-origin “community” conspiracies to rape young English girls.
I once met the Metropolitan of Kiev (the second-ranked Orthodox dignitary after the Patriarch of Moscow). About 40 or 42 years ago, when he visited London. He gave me a bottle of Moskovskaya vodka. A rather clever/cunning man, but quite benign, I thought. Small, with a huge —and especially long— beard that he tucked into his overcoat, like a scarf.

This Greenland thing (the USA potentially going to annex the territory) may (if it ever happens) drive a wedge between the USA on the one hand, and the EU states (and European members of NATO) on the other. That would be a very good thing. NATO might even fall apart, enabling all of Europe to develop closer links with Russia.
At present, people are not only being prosecuted for “offences” of having allegedly published “unpleasant” comments but also for having published serious comment relating to important social and political (and historical) matters inconvenient to certain groups, especially the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby. I should know. I myself have been victimized, for about 12 -13 years, by the Jew-Zionist pro-Israel lobby. What infuriates that lobby the most is that I refuse to be a victim. I continue to stand up for right, justice, and truth.
The articles below are presented in chronological order, from 2017 through to 2024.
The detail can be read, in part, in those articles but, overall, the anti-free speech campaign against me (and many others) has been spearheaded since 2014 by the small but (((well-funded))) “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, which has relatively few active supporters, even in the UK Jewish “community”, yet presents itself as if in a leadership role. Jewish and/or pro-Israel employees of TV and radio stations make sure that the tiny handful of “CAA” spokespersons are given airtime, while unethical scribblers quote the “CAA” types in a few of the newspapers.
In reality, the “CAA” consists of a small handful of more or less full-time activists, and a larger but still very small number of supporters (some of which are plainly deranged).
Well, there it is. So far, the Jew-Zionists (the “CAA” and also “UKLFI”— “UK Lawyers for Israel”) have managed to have me disbarred (albeit 8 years after I had completely ceased work as a barrister), have me removed from Twitter (in 2018; pre-Elon Musk), have had the police telephone me and/or turn up at the door of my now-humble home several times over the past decade, and have had me subjected 2-3 times to “voluntary” (really, involuntary) police interviews.
The “lobby” has also now (in 2023; sentence in 2024) procured my prosecution and conviction under the “bad law” of the Communications Act 2003, s.127 (despite that Act having been recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).
Naturally, I pleaded Not Guilty (as I always would, were any other attempt to be made) and nearly succeeded, but was found guilty (on very dubious grounds), which resulted (a few months later) in my being sentenced to a 9-month “community order” (i.e. akin to the old “probation”) and which turned out to consist of half a dozen or so short chats —lasting 30 to 120 mins— with a rather charming young probation lady, and also a financial penalty (mainly notional court costs) amounting to £734 (over a third of which was paid by a few generous people who gave to a crowdfunder I set up on GiveSendGo).
I might have succeeded on appeal, but decided that the gamble was not worth the extra trouble and expense, on that occasion.
I was sentenced in mid-March 2024. My “probation” period lasted officially until December 2024 but in reality finished in early September 2024.
Still, I remain politically active in terms of comment, and the blog has been published uninterruptedly right through all that process and nonsense. Almost daily.
Any further attempts to prosecute me or to close down the blog will be met with the same resistance and contempt.
We shall see what transpires. “It ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings” (at Wessex CPS, aka the “Clown” Prosecution Service, or generally).
Incidentally, quite a few of those who have tried to persecute me over the years have fallen victim to various medical conditions, or other dispensations of Fate; some have died.

Cloud cuckoo, did he pay you in kind for that tweet.
The name George Foulkes struck a faint chord, so I looked it up.
Turns out that George Foulkes was born in Shropshire in 1942, was educated partly privately, and was awarded a degree in psychology from Edinburgh in or about 1963-64, after which he apparently managed to avoid having to work in any job or profession (unless you include being f/t President of the Scottish Union of Students and then a local councillor) until elected as Labour MP in 1979 (he tried to become an MP in both 1970 and 1974 but failed).
Foulkes’ time as an MP was undistinguished. He tried to have Space Invaders and similar games banned in 1981 in case they caused “deviancy“, and introduced a few other private members bills which also got nowhere. He served on a few committees, for which he presumably received more money and/or expenses.
Foulkes was appointed a Labour shadow minister in 1992, but was forced to resign in 1993, having assaulted a policeman while drunk (and disorderly).
Foulkes, as both MP and peer, has belonged to a number of Commons committees dealing with the Caribbean, and thereby has received a large number of freebie trips (in effect, holidays) to the Caribbean.
Foulkes —naturally— tore the **** out of his expenses as an MP and, after having been elevated to the Lords, did the same as a peer. Wikipedia notes that his claimed “expenses” as “Lord” Foulkes during the financial year 2007-2008 alone amounted to nearly £55,000, worth about £100,000 in the money of 2025. He was also one of those Labour “parliamentarians” who tried to suppress exposure of his own and all other expenses claims.
Foulkes also “served” (and was well-paid) as a Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) during 2007-2011. No doubt he claimed plenty of expenses that way too.
The bastard also belongs to Labour Friends of Israel (what a surprise…). He favoured the invasion of Iraq. He was part of the anti-Corbyn caucus in Labour, needless to add.
So there it is. What a useless person, sadly typical of so many careerist, moneygrubbing, System-party politicians. “Dirty democratic politicians“, as Hitler called the Weimar Republic equivalent. These days, the word “democratic” might as well be omitted, of course.
Foulkes really should not be tweeting about honesty, integrity, and humanity…
Why are we importing hundreds of thousands of people into Australia from cultures which are completely at odds with our own? Why don’t we relax the regulations for people who wish to flee the UK instead. 🇦🇺🇬🇧
Sadly, Australia, where I lived and went to school for three years in the late 1960s, seems to have been making the same mistakes (promoted by the same or similar malicious groups…) as the UK and much of Europe. Plainly put, importing useless blacks and browns, and others such as Chinese. What a pity. So unnecessary and destructive.
For those unaware, Russian Orthodox Christmas is a couple of weeks behind because the Russian Orthodox Church (though not the rest of Russia) uses the Julian Calendar rather than the Gregorian. Thus, in Russia, Christmas Day is tomorrow, the 7th of January 2025.
Well, this week 7/10, thus just beating political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 6, 7, and 10. I admit that my (correct) answers to q.’s 4 and 9 were educated guesses.
Blog readers
I am always interested to see from where hits on the blog come. In the past week, from 16 different countries (inc. UK). Of course, with advances in technology, you cannot say for sure where readers are located; some may be, say, in Australia but appear to be in the USA, but I daresay most locations are accurate.
I was just looking at the apparent location of readers since I started the blog towards the end of 2016, so 8 years ago. Readers from 155 countries and territories in the world, so from about three-quarters of the world. There are 195 states in the world, plus some extra territories that do not have that status (such as Antarctica— and, yes I have had the odd hit from there, presumably from some scientist at a polar research base).
I have occasionally mused on who it might be in (inter alia) Lesotho, Antarctica, Greenland, Burkina Faso, the Aaland Islands (maybe I can guess who that particular one is), American Samoa, Chad, Tadjikistan, or Congo-Kinshasa, that is reading my thoughts and ideas.
The largest number of hits has always been from the UK, though (about 70%, with a further 10% from the USA).
The readership of the blog, on a daily basis, is still modest, never reaching over a thousand on any one day, and often not reaching even a hundred (I do not publicize the blog anywhere, and am not on Twitter/X or Facebook etc), but I have always taken the view that “one human soul is a big audience“.
Risible how System political scribblers, ivory-tower academics etc really still think that elections in the 2020s are still won by ridiculous local political footsoldiers knocking on doors, disturbing and and irritating householders, or by the voters reading the absolute shite put out on leaflets etc. This is 2024, not 1924…
John Rentoul seems unsure. He neither endorses nor dissents. He probably imagines that people actually read those (mostly) LibLabCon leaflets at election-time. Wrong; most, maybe 99%, go in the bin unread.
As for “average age 61, opposed to net zero“, what about “almost all (real) British” (as well)?

Blast(s) from the past
I just re-read the blog post about the infamous New Zealand massacre, which happened nearly 6 years ago, in 2019. Apparently, that blog post has had a rather small, disappointingly-small, number of hits; frankly, I think it is still worth reading. Anyway, here it is:
See also Ruth Smeeth, also a Hope not Hate figure, now (risibly) elevated to the totally-degraded House of Lords as “Baroness” Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Smeeth. A half-Jewish Zionist agent.
The thing that people REALLY, REALLY don't want to admit about the mass rape gangs which operated in the UK for decades is that their crimes were racially and religiously motivated and justified by the perpetrators.
“In Israel, war fatigue is growing, the death toll is rising, and the scale of the fighting is expanding. A growing number of Israeli army reservists are avoiding service, further straining an already overstretched army amid an ever-expanding war. An Israeli army spokesman said the number of conscripts had dropped by about 15% since the start of the operation in the Gaza Strip in October 2023. Israel is now embroiled in the longest conflict in its history. In the first months of the war, some 350,000 Israelis were conscripted, a huge number for a country with a population of less than 10 million. The army plans to extend mandatory military service and increase the maximum age limit for reservists. /Washington Post/.“
Israel is doomed. Once the Israeli state falls, the power and influence of the worldwide Jewish lobby will diminish greatly, enabling Europe, in particular, to break free.
Talking point
Scamdemic. Panicdemic.
Talk about “the Big Lie”! Stunning in its massive-scale mendacity. Label “flu” as “Covid” (more or less) then use the fear created (with relentless State publicity frightening the life out of people —in some cases, literally) to institute police-state measures and laws which can then be used again in future, as required.
Very true. Look at those peabrained idiots passing judgment on Robert Kennedy junior, and on his health plans, when they themselves are not only peabrained but also plainly unfit and unhealthy couch potatoes with nothing to do but watch TV and make ignorant comments based on whatever System propaganda they have absorbed from TV “news” comment etc.

I have posted in recent days a couple of hours of memories by the acclaimed, but now also “cancelled”, historian David Irving. Well worth seeing and listening to, so here it is again:
Today, 7 October 2024, the Israel lobby (aka Zionist lobby or Jewish lobby) is using the events of 7 October 2023 as a hook on which to hang the whole “holocaust” narrative, which in fact (under that label) mainly dates from the 1970s and later, despite being about disputed “events” of the early 1940s. The “usual suspects” are going mad on Twitter/X. A partly-coordinated “claque“.
At the same time, Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer is again displaying his fealty to Israel. In lay terms, Starmer can be, not inaccurately, described as “traitor”.
Also released today, figures showing that the number of people killed by the (Israeli) Jews in Gaza over the past year stands at about 42,000 (killed, not including the much larger number injured, in many cases grievously); many, the majority, have been women and children.
Starmer is a total disgrace, as well as being a freeloading hypocrite.
The same goes for Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper and others.
Ukrainian PM Denys Shmyhal announced that Ukraine will not renew its natural gas transit agreement with Russia, aiming to reduce Russian energy dependence. https://t.co/Z6WYA7toOU
Should I comment as I would like, “the usual suspects” on Twitter/X etc would no doubt make yet another malicious complaint to the poundshop Stasi police…
Still, the locals could stop them, though not by merely asking…
Such fake “Scottish nationalists” are beyond funny. Total cretins.

Odds-on that those ultimately behind that “company” are Jewish, and probably Israeli.
When I was resident in Kazakhstan in 1996-1997, one of those I encountered a few times was the chief of an Israeli energy company called something like Suntree. They were taking over hydropower and other electrical production and distribution plants and networks.
That Israeli, about (?) 70 or 75, had been a general in the Israeli Defence Forces, and he told me (by implication critical of the UK Embassy in Almaty, the then capital) that every Israeli ambassador is given, on appointment, a list or quota of connections to be made— economic, diplomatic, military etc.
Look at how the Israelis interfere in UK politics; of course they have the advantage of the voluntary help given to Israeli officials by “British” Jews.

I was at a medical centre recently (not on my own account). While waiting in the almost empty waiting area, I noticed a steady stream of people even older than me (in their 70s and maybe older) lining up, looking perfectly well, in order to order their anti-flu and supposed anti-Covid injections.
People with (I presume) real problems had to wait while those “worried well” pensioners endlessly discussed it all with the receptionist. Some of those nuisances wanting what I expect they term their “jabs” were even wearing facemask muzzles. No, dear…that was a couple of years ago…(the message has apparently not yet got through).

“Pine martens return to Dartmoor after 150-year absence.
“Fifteen of the nimble, tree-climbing mammals were released last month at secret locations in Devon.
Fifteen pine martens are darting through the woods of Dartmoor for the first time in 150 years after the rare but recovering species was reintroduced into south-west England.
The nimble, tree-climbing mustelids were released last month at secret locations in the steep, tree-lined valleys of Devon in what conservationists are hailing as a historic step in the restoration of the region’s woodlands.
The eight adult females and seven males were caught from resurgent populations in Scotland, meticulously checked for health, and driven to 10 woodland pens, where they were released under the cover of darkness well away from people and busy roads. The threat of road traffic is a big risk for the mostly nocturnal animals.
Fitted with GPS or radio tags depending on their size (lighter radio tags were used on the smaller individuals), the animals were fed in the pens for three days to acclimatise, before the doors were opened and the martens slipped away into the night.
Pine martens were driven to extinction in England at the turn of the 20th century by the loss of forests and persecution, with gamekeepers in particular targeting the animals for preying upon pheasants and poultry.“

Iranian attack on Israel
Puzzling to an observer. It seems that the attack was mostly if not entirely on military targets. The Israelis are keeping the scale of the damage secret. I had thought that there would be a large number of civilian casualties (as when the Israelis attack Lebanon, Gaza, Syria etc) but it seems that hardly any Israelis have been killed or even injured.
I have seen no indication of whether the Dimona nuclear weapons plant was hit.
Likewise, it seems odd that the main international airport suffered no, or no substantial, damage. I should have thought that that would have been a priority target.
Looking on from outside, it is hard to fully understand both the overall situation and the details, such as how many rockets (and of what type) Iranian forces have; likewise on the Israeli side.
Well, appoint members of the House of Lords from the bazaars of South Asia, from the slums of Jamaica and West Africa, and from the tribe of “the usual suspects”, and naturally the whole institution crumbles. Who would have guessed?…
NEW Overwhelming support for James Cleverly in 10 random interviews I’ve just done for @GBNEWS with members leaving the hall just now. Many have switched from other candidates. It seems Cleverly won the debate in the hall. Will MPs put him through to the final two next week?…
A half-African, with a “degree” in Hospitality Management from Ealing College, as Leader of the Conservative Party and, potentially, as Prime Minister? What could possibly go wrong? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Cleverly.
Having said that, the other three candidates are also bad jokes: a Nigerian woman married to a banker of uncertain provenance; a part-Jew former “chocolate soldier”; a dishonest and corrupt moneygrubber married to a Jewish woman lawyer. All three vocally pro-Israel.
At least Cleverly is rather less vocal in his support for Israel and the Jewish lobby.
I suppose that most scribblers and msm talking heads are expecting the Conservative Party to revive as Starmer’s hopeless government continues to falter (after only 3 months), but that may not happen.
For me, the most telling aspect of GE 2024 is that, in broad terms, out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 decided not to vote at all. Beyond that, out of the 12 that did vote, only 4 voted “Labour”, only 3 voted “Conservative”, and then 2 voted Reform UK, 2 voted LibDem, and 1 (just about) voted Green.
At present, the underwhelming Reform UK is the only game in town in terms of becoming an unofficial populist Opposition. The LibDems are just beneficiaries of a ridiculously illogical voting system. The “don’t know how to vote so vote LibDem” party.
None of the 4 contenders for Conservative Party leadership are really of any importance; none —say I— will ever be Prime Minister.

You knew you were coming to power, you knew everybody would be watching, Starmer knew he'd be PM but they did it all anyway. As I said in piece, it's not about if within the rules -it's about if it's within the British people's sacrosanct sense of fair play. And it's not…
I have as much of a beef with the sheer brainless vulgarity of her behaviour (especially at the age of 44) as with the all-too-typical “New Labour”-style freeloading.

I think that not only Jews are puzzled. Looks as though the Iranian forces prioritized military targets. It is uncertain, though, what proportion of missiles hit their targets.
Without more detail, such information is almost useless.

“Labour MP Rosie Duffield has resigned the Labour whip with immediate effect.
Her resignation pulls no punches:
“As Prime Minister, your managerial and technocratic approach, and lack of basic politics and political instincts, have come crashing down on us as a party after we worked so hard, promised so much, and waited a long fourteen years to be mandated by the British public to return to power
Since the change of government in July, the revelations of hypocrisy have been staggering and increasingly outrageous.
I cannot put into words how angry I and my colleagues are at your total lack of understanding about how you have made us all appear.
How dare you take our longed-for victory, the electorate’s sacred and precious trust, and throw it back in their individual faces and the faces of dedicated and hardworking Labour MPs?!
The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale. I am so ashamed of what you and your inner circle have done to tarnish and humiliate our once proud party.”
I might not agree on everything with Rosie Duffield (specifically, her support for Israel and the Jewish lobby), but she certainly has principle. These days, in the political milieu, that is as rare and as valuable as rubies.
“Forcing a vote [on winter fuel payment] …while you and your favourite colleagues enjoy free family trips to events most people would have to save hard for — why are you not showing even the slightest bit of embarrassment?”
Starmer shows no embarrassment because he is not really a politician, let alone a statesman, but a technician, put into power by the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby to do a job: firstly to get rid of Corbyn and any non-Zionists in Labour, secondly to impose the ZOG/NWO regime, meaning pro-Israel and pro-“Ukraine” (the Zelensky Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) internationally, and a kind of “great reset” domestically; thirdly, to destroy what little free speech and freedom of expression still exists in the UK, fourthly, to impose a “woke” dictatorship intent on shipping into the UK as many non-whites as possible.

They regard him getting voted out because he said his constituents were extremists and told them to fuck off as a terrible, unforgivable injustice and a threat.
Interesting. Something of which I was previously unaware. I suppose it might just be co-incidence, but there so often do seem to be so many “co-incidences”…
It should be illegal for Penny Mordaunt and Kemi Badenoch to promote Israel as if it's something they know or believe when it's just a paid promotion of a Foreign power for a fee like promoting Marlboro cigarettes.. And of course, the same applies to Keir Starmer and Labour.. pic.twitter.com/RTZWffWsnI
That kind of Jewish lobby (which after 1948 became also an Israel/State of Israel lobby) did exist prior to WW2. Churchill was its main agent; but it did not really or fully embed itself until after 1989, in the 1990s. Blair was, in this as in so many other negative things, the one who opened up the portal of darkness.
"I've always put my constituents first, and that hasn't changed." "Why don't you put that to the test?" "No."
Ha. Seems that her principles do not extend as far as giving up, or risking having to give up, the pay and perks of an MP. She understands all too well that, in a rigged system like this, the voting masses only vote for a label, at least 99% of the time. Which makes me wonder why she has left Labour. Maybe she will jump to Reform UK. Seems unlikely, though, especially in view of her solid electoral support at GE 2024— 41.4%, with Cons second on 23%.
I was just looking at Rosie Duffield’s bio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_Duffield. Not very impressive; not at all. The main thing that stands out is her pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby stance. I have noticed that the prolific and fanatical Jewish tweeters on Twitter/X always support her— a very bad sign.
Rosie Duffield cannot return to a well-paid outside profession or career, because she never had one. She dropped out of school at 16, and her main activity apart from being a mother was as a teaching assistant for a number of years. She was 46 when she became an MP in 2017.
Maybe Rosie Duffield, in the end, is just quite genuinely horrified by the evident unfitness of Starmer-Labour, and has simply decided to sit it out as an MP for the next 4+ years and then either not stand for re-election or maybe stand for Reform UK or as Independent. She might yet have a chance if she goes to Reform and if Reform is by then the main challenging party.
She is older than she looks and (born 1971) is now 53. By 2029, she will be 58. Perhaps she has little interest in continuing beyond that point.
As for Starmer, I said on the blog, about a week or so after GE 2024, that he had already failed in government.

“Friedrich Merz, the leader of Germany’s main opposition party, the CDU, said that “Ukraine can never defeat Russia, and that was never the goal.” In an interview with Bild, he said that the allies are helping Ukraine “not to lose the war.”
Asked whether Ukraine should win the war, he replied: ” Ukraine will never be able to defeat Russia, that was never the goal. But for me victory means: it must restore sovereignty over its territory. And Russia must stop attacking this country. We must do everything to make Russia consider the continuation of the war hopeless. But we are quite far from that.”

Reminder: Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says free speech is a weapon of war, and censorship is necessary to protect free speech. pic.twitter.com/iM4g7RbyO7
That horrible creature of Evil, Jacinda Ardern, has been a major player in the attempt to create a world anti-white, anti-free speech dictatorship. New Zealand may be far away from almost everywhere but until about 30 years ago was an almost entirely English/Scottish new-ish society. That, of course, had to be trashed… How did they do it? Same as everywhere else of importance— imported non-white populations, and destroyed free speech.
People talk a lot of nonsense about how the white settlers took over the existing Maori state in the 19thC. There is of course a kernel of truth in that, but the main Maori invasion and/or settlement was in the 14thC AD, only c.400 years before the white European settlement. In any case, after the Europeans and Maori came to agreement, New Zealand was a progressive and peaceful society until the late 20thC.
Jacinda Ardern worked at a fairly high level for the UK Labour Party under Blair-Brown for 1-2 years before relocating back to New Zealand.
15 years as MP, of which about 6 were also years as Prime Minister (2017-2023).
One puzzling aspect of Jacinda Ardern’s political regime is that she came to power as Prime Minister with a rather small amount of capital, yet is now said to be worth tens of millions of NZ dollars. How?

Couldn’t budget he own household income earlier in the year north of £270k. Utterly inept
He’s on the floor being counted as we speak. It’s only a matter of time. A dud, a phony, a fraud, a free loader, a tax evader, an obfuscator, a hypocrite and a shameless barefaced liar. Never seen anything like it and how the hell did we allow this to happen. Never again!
Anyone who has lived in the USA knows to what extent the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby controls the major parts of the news media (TV stations, radio stations, the newspapers, magazines etc). I do not hear John Kerry talking about that, though…
While admittedly not germane to the tweet above, I do find it puzzling that the parents of Ed and David Miliband were supposedly “poor refugees” “fleeing” “Nazi-ism”, so how did they obviously have so much money?
“Belgian-born Marxist sociologist Ralph Miliband and Polish-born Marion Kozak [were] both from Polish Jewish families.[1][7][8] The latter was a teacher before she became a homemaker. He was given the middle name of “Wright” after the American sociologist C. Wright Mills, a friend of his father.[9] He has said “I am the child of Jewish immigrants and that is a very important part of my identity.”[7]
Both his Polish Jewish paternal grandparents lived in the Jewish quarter of Warsaw. His paternal grandfather, Samuel, a trained leather worker, served in the Red Army in the Polish–Soviet War of 1919–1921 before moving to Belgium.[10][11] His paternal grandmother, Renia (later known as Renée), also moved to Belgium, where she first met Sam, and the couple married in 1923.[12]
The German invasion of Belgium in May 1940 split the Miliband family in half: Ralph and father Samuel fled to England,[13] while Ralph’s mother Renée and baby sister Nan stayed behind for the duration of the war. They were not reunited until 1950.”
[Wikipedia]
“Miliband’s parents grew up in the impoverished Jewish quarter of Warsaw, Poland. His father Samuel Miliband (1895–1966) was a member of the socialist Jewish Labour Bund in Warsaw.[11]“
[Wikipedia]
“Ralph married Polish-born Marion Kozak in September 1961.[25] She was the daughter of a steel manufacturer, David Kozak, with a Polish Jewish heritage, and also one of his former students at the LSE. They made a home in Primrose Hill, and later in Bolton Gardens, South Kensington, and had two sons, David in 1965 and Edward in 1969.“
So they flee penniless, supposedly, from mainland Europe, and not only get jobs in London; they have a house or apartment (I think house), firstly in the affluent area of Primrose Hill, and then in the extremely affluent/wealthy area of The Boltons, in South Kensington.
Even in the 1950s and 1960s, those were very expensive areas.
Moreover, their two children both go to university, and not just any university but Oxford (Corpus Christi).
Ed Miliband had so much money that, when he became Labour Party leader, Jeremy Paxman actually taxed him in interview with the question as to whether he had ever had trouble paying a bill. He floundered.
Puzzling all the same. We always hear how the “Nazis” confiscated all Jewish property. Does that mean that those Jews had riches stashed in other countries? If so, at least some “Nazi” propaganda would seem to be based on truth…
If you take away the msm scribblers and photographers, maybe 20 Young (not to say “callow”) Conservatives…
Labour are rubbish (and malicious), the equally-fake Conservative Party is equally-rubbish (the only reason Labour are in government is because almost all voters wanted the Cons out rather than Lab in).
People are looking for a new way forward. At present, only Reform UK, more or less “controlled opposition”, is looking likely to be able to mount an electoral challenge of any significance any time soon, but what Britain really needs is social nationalism.

I like that kind of aerial travelogue, and this one was done reasonably well, except that the (Northern English) voiceover insisted on using the term “Nazi” when she meant “German“, as in potential “Nazi invasion” of the UK, or “Nazi bombs” falling on this or that city. I was glad, though, to see/hear the amusingly nerdy young custodian (?) or historian at Bletchley Park refer, correctly, to the encrypted matter and codes being studied as “German“, rather than “Nazi“.

The sheer sickness of the present society is exposed when some thick-as-two-short-planks “diversity-hire” such as David Lammy is an MP, and now even a Cabinet minister, and is on TV politics shows, while at the same time someone such as me is either ignored or is treated as a political criminal. It’s just ridiculous, a bad joke.

With the “Conservative” Party as good as dead, and with fake “Labour” already, after only 2 months in office, crashing and burning, it is not impossible that, failing the emergence of a real social-national movement, desperate voters will have only Reform UK for which to vote in 2029 or 2028.
Those hundreds of “diverse” “Labour”-label idiots presently in the Commons will then die off like flies in Autumn.
Every time I think I couldn't be more shocked by the dystopian reality of British ‘public health’ policy and its associated ecosystem, something else comes along to knock me off my chair. This time, it's the turn of the ‘sick man of Europe report’ released yesterday.
It's like we're being prepared, with tons of them saying "I'm done with Musk and X. If you want to follow me, I'll be on BlueSky." Feels like setting the groundwork so that everyone thinks "ooh, I'll move over there too", making it easy for the Labour Party to censor Twitter.
The David Morgan Twitter/X account is one of the most worthwhile of those dealing with certain problems head-on. Those with a Twitter/X account will find his material of interest should they follow it.
Morgan, however, must —and probably does— realize that many types of people suffered both before and during the Second World War (and in the mid/late 1940s, after it ended). In most cases, not at the hands of National Socialist Germany (contrary to that which “the usual suspects” tend to say).
My generation, Gen Z is more awake than people realize.
“Keir Starmer has suffered a precipitous fall in his personal ratings since winning the election, according to a new poll for the Observer that comes before his first Labour conference as prime minister.
The latest Opinium poll reveals that Starmer’s approval rating has plunged below that of the Tory leader Rishi Sunak, suffering a huge 45-point drop since July. While 24% of voters approve of the job he is doing, 50% disapprove, giving him a net rating of -26%. Sunak’s net rating is one point better.
In a troubling assessment of the government’s opening months, only 27% think it has so far been a success, while 57% think it has not been successful. Even a third (32%) of those who voted for Labour at the last election believe the government has not been a success in its opening two months. Labour is seen as focusing too much on the government’s fiscal position when the public want them to focus on growing the economy.
James Crouch, head of policy and public affairs at Opinium said: “While the prime minister might have a world-beating new wardrobe, voters are refusing to wear his government’s austerity drive.“

So thick-as-two-short-planks “Deputy Prime Minister” Angela Rayner took “a friend” on her freebie break in Manhattan, as well as going (on another freebie break?) to Ibiza, where she made the UK a laughing stock by her vulgar antics in the so-called “VIP area” of a noisy horrible nightclub of some sort? (at age 44).
Very true, but that should not be used as a reason or excuse to vandalize the English countryside with tracts of boring, poorly-designed and ugly housing, with inadequate infrastructure (a fortiori, if that housing is destined to be used as hutches for migrant-invaders).
Sadly, when said friends were featured in a national newspaper gossip piece about him (meaning, about Scruton hobnobbing with people having radical “neo-fascist” political connections), Scruton decided to cut them from his acquaintances for reasons of careerism.
Scruton was a very influential academic later in his career, and published over 50 books which were translated into many languages, especially in Eastern and Central Europe (I myself recall seeing an entire bookshop window of Scruton’s works in Czech in the Old Town of Prague in 1999). Scruton, though, was fatally flawed by his wish to make money.

This of course is before what is going to be a pretty disastrous budget
Bearing in mind that only 4 out of 12 voting voters (4 out of 20 eligible) actually voted for Labour anyway, that is pretty damning, and much less than 3 months in.
Migrant-invaders. At best— useless parasites; at worst— criminals and/or terrorists.
Anyone supporting this invasion is, in a very real sense, a traitor to the British people and to all European people— and the future.
707. In a single day. All will now be housed, fed, given money, given medical and dental services, given other services etc by the “government”, i.e. out of the pockets of the British people. About £200 per day each. Maybe more. So at least £140,000 per day, just for today’s consignment of riff-raff.
Meanwhile, Starmer’s Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment and “elected” dictatorship is throwing billions at “Ukraine” (the Jewish regime in Kiev), at African and Asian wastes of space, at all sorts of nonsense, and is cheating all British people, especially pensioners but also, down the line, the middle-aged and young (deprived of a decent future).
