Stray thought

Sometimes people say something about what may happen, and even that they may do something; later the said thing happens, but you do not know whether that is co-incidental, or whether the people you spoke with were responsible.

Example: when I was in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in 1977, aged 20, I happened to be acquainted with an Englishman about my age, maybe a year or so older, who had been (for whatever reason) chucked out of the training course for the Rhodesian SAS (which, unlike the British original parent version, recruited directly, not only from soldiers already serving in other units).

That young man told me that he and a few friends had an idea to break into the HQ of the Bank of Rhodesia and steal its foreign currency reserves. I laughed, thinking it impossible. Some time later, though, when I was back in the UK, I happened to read (I think in the Daily Telegraph) a small piece reporting on how that institution had indeed been broken into, and a large part of the foreign currency therein stolen. I think that the sum mentioned was either USD $5M or £5M pounds sterling (in today’s money, that would be at least £50M). As far as I know, no-one was ever arrested, nor the funds recovered.

So was that co-incidence, or was that humorous rogue whom I knew slightly (and whose name I cannot now recall) one of the culprits? I shall never know, neither shall I ever know whether he is currently sunning himself in Monte Carlo alongside a suitable blonde and a Campari-soda, or was, before long, dead in a ditch somewhere in Africa.

Life is always a puzzle.

As Hitler said of the equivalent “grifters” during the days of the Weimar Republic, “dirty democratic politicians“…

Of course, she is right on those points, but I cannot accept someone who is not English or (in any real sense) British, nor even European, as a political leader in this country.

Debates are a waste of time and effort.

“UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”] was the nominal organization which complained in 2014 to the Bar Standards Board about some of my tweets (I had a Twitter/X account until yet another pack of Jews had me “suspended”, i.e. expelled, in 2018).

An old Jew barrister called Goldberg, of whom I had never heard until that time, signed the complaint on behalf of “UKLFI”. It later turned out that he had at one time been the preferred Counsel of the notorious Kray gangsters (themselves part-Jew).

The malicious and dishonest “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] was also involved and, after I was (wrongfully and unlawfully) disbarred in 2016, its chiefs, Gideon Falter and Stephen Silverman, crowed mightily in the Press and on TV about my having been disbarred, and about how (they claimed) it set a “precedent” for their being able to target not only barristers but also members of other professions which now have strict conduct regulations (and three guesses which type of individual drafts those…).

The “UKLFI” and “CAA” have, to some extent, overlapping membership and supporter cadres. More or less, or in effect, volunteer arms of the Israeli Embassy in London, and therefore of the Israeli state.

My experience of the Bar Standards Board/Bar Disciplinary Tribunal process in the 2014-2016 period, and since then:

A horrible tribe.

Brainless “Conservative” Party member at the Conservative Party Conference. She mentions “thousands” of people, but the most I have seen online would be a couple of hundred in one place, and that includes Press and other msm attendees. Most gatherings seem to have been dozens rather than hundreds, let alone thousands.

I notice that that tweeter mentions the absence of demonstrators outside (with the exception of that oddly-dressed pro-EU lunatic who impeded my taxi in Whitehall a couple of years ago). The reason for the non-appearance of demonstrators is obvious— the fake “Conservative” Party is now more or less irrelevant. The Con Party is politically completely irrelevant for the next 4-5 years, and may be even less relevant after that, if Reform UK or other party manages to do well.

The voters want a real alternative, and the Con Party is not that.

Britain in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s had many problems, but they were not insoluble and, in general, Britain was improving and developing in various ways, despite the disastrous socio-economic damage done by the unnecessary and very negative Second World War.

Britain still had many possibilities open to it in the 1970s, but after that time, especially after 1989, the shades of doom closed in: mass immigration, already a problem since the 1970s, became a constantly-increasing migration-invasion. A smallish island started to become a human ant-heap. Housing shortages, crowded roads and rail, even water shortages on a regular basis. All had existed at one time or another, but on a smaller scale or more limited in duration.

True, though that could be said of almost all “Conservative” MPs and ex-MPs, including Justine Greening.

Of course, Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng) is absent from that joke of a conference. If the City of London is stupid enough to give him a job, then it only proves that the City as well as Parliament needs root-and-branch radical reform.

Well, I counted about 150 in the line. Maybe a few more. Take away scribblers, photographers etc, and the total is about 100-150.

Not quite a Nuremberg rally…

Goodwin, very pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, will be surprised to find out what “element” has encouraged and continues to encourage mass immigration the most.

Quite. The “Conservative” Party is not listening to the people, and the people are not listening to the “Conservatives”.

Intriguing. Is it purely personal, purely political, or a mix? Is MOSSAD involved somewhere? (only joking…but maybe it is).

God, how horrible. Only God knows what group karma will, eventually, result from everything “they” have done in the past 150 years.

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.

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.

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”…

I think that it goes deeper than that.

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.

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.”

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?

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?

Miliband was born in the Fitzrovia district of Central London to Polish Jewish immigrants Marion Kozak and Ralph Miliband, a Marxist intellectual and native of Brussels who fled Belgium during World War II. He graduated from Corpus Christi College, Oxford and later from the London School of Economics.”

[Wikipedia]

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.

I suppose that the riches came from the maternal side: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Kozak#Early_life_and_education

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…

She does not sound at all intelligent (whoever she is).

Are there only about 20 people at that conference?

Make that 120…

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.

Watched something called Abandoned Railways from Above. https://www.channel4.com/programmes/abandoned-railways-from-above.

The episode I saw was about the Varsity Line, of which I knew a little already. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varsity_Line.

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“.
