Life is complex.
There are very many systems of numerology. Under one of the simplest (applicable to Latin-alphabet languages), A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9, J=1, K=2, L=3, M=4, N=5, O=6, P=7, Q=8, R=9, S=1, T=2, U=3, V=4, W= 5, X=6, Y=7, Z=9.
Under that system, Ian Robert Millard would be:
Ian 9+1+5 = 15. Then 1+5 = 6.
Robert 9+6+2+5+9+2 = 33. Then 3+3 = 6.
Millard 4+9+3+3+1+9+4 = 33. Then 3+3 = 6.
So Ian Robert Millard = 666.
Life is not that simple, though. I am not “the Beast” or, indeed, the ruler of the world but, like Parzival/Parsifal, a human soul hopefully “slowly wise“, and living the quietest and most peaceful and obscure of lives, at least most of the time.

Something has to be done to reverse this situation.
I have blogged previously, several times, about the Gorton and Denton by-election. From (obviously) a considerable distance, I see it as being very close among Reform/Greens/Labour, but I just cannot see who would vote Labour now, in that seat or elsewhere.
Having said that, the one-third of eligible voters in the by-election who are Pakistani Muslims are hard to fathom. Many cannot even speak English, and their educational level is probably rock-bottom. Who knows what their motivations might be? Labour is said to have an effective electoral machine up there (though journalists say that little has been seen of Labour canvassers etc).
I can see the dilemma of the Muslim voters, perhaps unwilling to vote Labour because it is a Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment, also unwilling (perhaps) to vote Green because Green policies include the decriminalization of both drugs (all drugs) and pornography (all pornography?), yet unwilling to vote for the (supposedly) anti-migration-invasion Reform UK.
The Muslims would probably have voted for George Galloway or his candidate, but he has endorsed the Green Party candidate, thus greatly boosting the Greens’ chances.
I should imagine that most white English/British voters in the seat will be voting Reform; we shall see. To vote any other way would be turkeys voting for Christmas.
My own feeling is that Matt Goodwin, for Reform, could still do this, but it may run very close.
Reform’s weakness has always been its finance-capitalist and also its pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby orientation. Farage welcoming deadheads, freeloaders, and/or non-Brits such as Nadine Dorries, Nadhim Zahawi etc has weakened the Reform “brand”, no question. Matt Goodwin himself has openly criticized that, and Farage has (retaliation?) gone to the Chagos Islands (well, offshore there) instead of slogging it out on the by-election front-lines with Goodwin. Not impressive.
Were Reform more social-national, even it it fell far short of my policy positions, it would be on 50% in the opinion polls, not between 24% and 28%.
That poll shows not only Con and Lab, but also the Greens and LibDems almost on the same level: 18%, 18%, 17%, and 14%. Reform still leading the pack, though not convincingly.
Of course, a victory for Reform in the by-election would certainly give them a national boost.
Incidentally, that latest poll would indicate a Commons with about 291 Reform MPs (some distance short of a majority), Greens 80 (official, albeit very weak, Opposition!), Cons 79, LibDems 74, Labour 53, SNP 45 [etc].
[“Exclusive: Two of the key documents held by the government on Lord Mandelson’s appointment as US ambassador will not be made public until after the police investigation and any criminal trial has concluded It means it will be months or even possibly years before they see the light of day That includes the Cabinet Office due diligence report given to Keir Starmer prior to Mandelson’s appointment as US ambassador It details public evidence about their friendship – the fact Mandelson stayed at Epstein’s New York apartment while he was in jail for sex offences, the JP Morgan report saying the two men had a ‘particularly close’ relationship It will raise significant questions about Starmer’s judgment The three questions Starmer put to Mandelson and his responses will also be withheld. Starmer told the Commons that these provide evidence that Mandelson misled him Both documents are being withheld because of concerns that they could prejudice a potential criminal trial https://thetimes.com/article/c6744244-115c-476f-9947-67906972dc3f?shareToken=d8471688d85cfe016cea8b434f7029d32]
Starmer-stein and those behind him (Israel lobby, Jewish lobby, MOSSAD, the Trilateral Commission, NWO/ZOG etc) are desperate not to have exposed the conspiracy that has embedded itself in Labour— and in the UK as a whole.

There is still all to play for in the by-election.
My thoughts exactly. About 30 stooges in the hired function room of some hotel (look at the chandelier), holding up placards in order to make a photo for social media and the newspapers.
If the reports are accurate, then we may not be far from nuclear war. Were that to happen, both Britain and France, as we know them, will cease to exist.
The UK must stop backing the brutal, corrupt, and shambolic Kiev regime, which is living on borrowed time and “borrowed” money.
