At time of writing, the Runcorn and Helsby by-election has 9 hours still to run before polls close.
I have blogged that I think that, despite Reform UK not being social-national, and despite the candidate, Sarah Pochin, being rather low-key and also an ex-Conservative, it will probably smash this. It should. After all, what sort of idiot now votes “Labour”-label, even in the North of England? Starmer-stein has shown his true colours— indistinguishable from the Cameron-era “Conservatives”, and a complete puppet of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby.
If I am wrong, and Labour retains the seat, it will be disappointing, though even that will (depending on the figures) show that Labour, as much as the Conservative Party, is in terminal decline.
As previously blogged, all generally pro-British voters should back Reform in this by-election. Former Labour voters who do not want to vote Reform should vote Green or elsewhere, or stay at home. As for former Conservative voters, the Con candidate has no chance at all. If you want to stick it to Labour, vote Reform.

Keir Starmer, Yvette Cooper and Labour MPs are so visibly on the wrong side of history. The fact they will not hold a dedicated, national, statutory inquiry on the most horrific scandal in British history, which is STILL going on today, will be remembered for generations. https://t.co/eDFKtenlfN
If replicated at a general election, that would equate to about 349 Reform MPs, and a substantial Commons majority (Lab 130, LibDems 60, SNP 41, Cons 39).
Such a result, placing the Conservative Party only 5th in the Commons (after Reform, Labour, the LibDems, and the SNP) would probably be effectively terminal for the Conservative Party.
In its effect, that would be almost revolutionary, even if Reform by then were as (((occupied))) as the existing System parties. The System structure would have been broken down. After that, anything might be possible.

Good for them! If a Russian army of millions, even unarmed, were crossing the Channel, the msm, and System politicos, would all be gagging for them to be shot, but the present black/brown cross-Channel invasion is far worse than a Russian invasion (armed or unarmed) would be, because those now invading us are at best useless parasites, at worst criminals, scavengers, predators, and/or hate-filled enemies of our whole way of life.

The whole idea of (in the UK) having elected mayors and, even worse, those risible “police and crime commissioners”, was a very poor policy. The “police and crime commissioner” in Hampshire is a very fat woman who seems to be completely useless, and has never had a job (except political ones such as running Portsmouth Council), let alone a profession, though to give her some credit she at least recognized publicly that the so-called “riots” (protests) in 2024 against immigration or migration invasion were linked to, er, immigration and migration invasion.

[“I firmly believe the UK is now hurtling toward a major political earthquake. Look at the numbers in the latest polling, compared to the general election last year. Amid the worst cost-of-living crisis since the Second World War, soaring and uncontrolled immigration, deteriorating public services, a glaring lack of social integration, and a succession of scandals that have rocked the Labour government, from the rape gangs to Freebiegate, voters are now on the move. Compared to the 2024 general election, Keir Starmer and Labour are down more than 10-points on just 24%. Kemi Badenoch and the Tories are down 2-points on just 22%, showing no sign of recovery. And the Liberal Democrats are up 1-point, averaging just 13.6%. But now look at Reform. As we’ve been predicting and analysing in our newsletter for two years (showing why people are voting Reform and the areas where it is building strength), Reform is now up 11-points to 25%. And that’s not all. As I explain below, Reform is now hitting both the Tories but especially Labour in unique and powerful ways, looking set for a major breakthrough as it inherits the post-Brexit realignment.”]
Yes, but Reform can only be a transitional party, existing in the space between the existing System parties and a social nationalist movement which, as yet, does not exist.
The next big test will be the Runcorn and Helsby by-election. 9 days from today. Those voters could make history. Will they?

In rough terms, at the 2024 General Election, Reform scored about 2 votes out of every 12 cast. Labour got 4 out of every 12, the Con Party 3 out of every 12. In fact, 8 out of every 20 eligible did not even vote, so Labour was endorsed by only 4 out of 20.
About half of those Labour votes were cast by people who now realize that Starmer-stein lied to them about almost everything. That is why Labour (supported mainly by non-white voters) is now around the same level as Reform UK.
The unfair FPTP electoral system gives the false impression that only a tiny fringe supported Reform at GE 2024; in fact it was over 14%, and the Conservative Party, with all its money and history (and in government until the General Election) only scored 23%.

Widespread and angry political dissent is not going to go away even if Reform does. Popular discontent will simply find another channel to flow down. Another party, or a new movement of some kind, perhaps a social-national movement which goes beyond being simply a political party.

[“Parents were told – by people they thought were experts – that dire consequences would ensue if their children were not given access to puberty blockers. Stonewall told managers and employees that “transwomen” were entitled to enter women’s single-sex spaces and sports. It encouraged public and private sector organizations to “go beyond the law” in the hope that this would make gender self-ID the de facto – and eventually de jure – reality. Civil servants and officials around the country have promoted the message that trans-identifying people should be treated in accordance with their “gender identity”. Worst of all, children have been encouraged to believe it’s possible to change sex, and that they will be accepted for all purposes as the opposite sex. All these lies and misrepresentations have caused immense damage. Some of the protests have been repulsive and inexcusable. But the angry, distraught trans-identifying people we are hearing from were lied to by thousands of people who should have known better. When you’ve been living a lie, the truth is very painful. The civil unrest – and political troublemaking – we’ve seen is dangerous. @Keir_Starmer must make a statement welcoming the Supreme Court ruling and strongly affirming his party’s commitment to the rule of law.“]

[“NEW POST. I’ve just returned to Britain from Hungary, where I spent a few days giving talks to students, politicians, and members of the public. Whenever you mention Hungary among a certain group in London —think SW1 Westminster, the BBC, Financial Times, Oxbridge—people tend to lose their minds. ‘Hungary!?’ they say, ‘you mean that rather odd country in Eastern Europe that’s very conservative and falling out with everybody in the European Union!?” I first experienced this reaction last summer when, amid the Southport atrocities, I dared to point out that the country I was visiting and which Western elites like to criticise —a very stable, a very secure, and a very peaceful Hungary—looked utterly different to the country I was returning to. Because unlike Hungary, Britain was on fire. Widespread rioting and protests after the Southport atrocity had become an unavoidable symbol of intense public concern about things that are only significant in Hungary because they are absent —mass uncontrolled immigration, broken borders, radical Islamism, Pakistani Muslim rape gangs, and the murder of children by the descendants of recent immigrants. Nonetheless, my mere suggestion that perhaps Hungary has got some things right that Britain has got badly wrong generated an incredibly hostile response from British elites, reflecting an arrogance and snobbishness that is rife among that class. Indeed, for much of the last fifteen years there’s been an assumption among elites in Britain that something has gone ‘badly wrong’ with Hungary. But based on what I witnessed and was asked at events last week, I’m here to tell you that the opposite is true. Because as far as many Hungarians are concerned, it is Britain, it is England, it is us, who got things badly wrong, who made a series of disastrous policy choices they are determined to avoid, and who are, in the words of one person I encountered, “losing our country”.”]

In any case, were there ever a real military attack from (presumably) Russia (a conflict with which would be mad from the UK point of view— it would finish this country forever, probably), one of the first places to be attacked and eliminated (possibly by Spetsnaz attack, prior to the launch of any missile) would be Fylingdales itself.
On the wider aspects, while those working in such establishments may be fed the line that they are protecting the UK from attack and/or invasion, the reality is that the UK society those soldiers think they are protecting is decaying from within, and being invaded daily by literally thousands of migrant-invaders, both “legally” and “illegally”, and by births to non-white mothers within the UK.
UK society is changing, and being poisoned, before our very eyes.

The euro is above 1.14, trading at its highest level in over three years. The dollar has lost 5.5% of its value against the euro since Liberation Day. That means buying European imports will now cost Americans 15.5% more. 10% for the tariffs and 5.5% due to dollar depreciation.

I'm old enough to remember Michael Gove turning up at work to vote completely off his face.
Conservative Friends of Israel drone Gove, drunk and on cocaine at Westminster. A total enemy of the people; he should be punished, not rewarded.
One of the 5 tweets that (after the Jewish lobby pushed for it) got me disbarred in 2016 was that calling Gove a snivelling expenses cheat in hock to the Jewish/Israel lobby. True facts. I (like most people) was unaware at that time (around 2012) that Gove was also both a drunk and a cocaine abuser.
Another of those 5 tweets was that calling Nicolas Sarkozy a corrupt little Jew. I was partly wrong there (he is only a half-Jew). Sarkozy has of course now been found guilty in a French court of corruption, alongside other Jews.
All my famous or (according to the Jewish lobby) infamous “5 tweets” (posted online between 2010 and 2014) have now been proven to have been true in almost every particular.
Incidentally, in more recent years, the Bar Standards Board wrote to me inviting me to have the disbarment annulled and a “rehearing” take place, mainly because I should never have been tried by a 5-person panel but only by a 3-person panel (which would have had no power to disbar), but I declined, partly because I was already well over 60 and unlikely to resume Bar practice, partly to show my contempt for the Bar (which is now a craven, multikulti dustbin afraid of its own shadow and especially the shadow of the Jewish/Israel lobby).
In other words, had I taken up that suggestion, I should by now have been reinstated as both barrister and —perhaps more useful to me— as a member of Lincoln’s Inn (a pleasant place for a lunch or dinner when in London). Still, I have no regrets, none of importance anyway.

Not (yet) quite the view I have been putting on the blog for the past three years, i.e. Russia to take all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper, as well as a wide coastal strip from the Dnieper as far as a point west of Odessa. Kiev and Odessa to be free cities (either autonomous or jointly-controlled). The rest of Ukraine west of the Dnieper to be ruled by a Ukrainian administration based in Lvov.
I think that the above formulation by me would be fair, and could form the basis for a lasting, if not very friendly, peace.
The Kellogg plan is frankly not as good as mine. It involves British and French forces effectively working with those of the Kiev regime on the ground, and has every likelihood of entangling the Western forces in conflict with Russia, directly.
Russia will never accept that plan anyway.
In any case, from the British point of view, why should we be involved at all? Ukraine has only been a supposed state for 34 years, and Britain has no historical connection with Ukraine, nor any national interest in getting directly involved.
The bottom line, though, is that Russia will never accept such a plan.
“Britain has still to make the decision as to whether it wants to be an advanced, European-race, high-IQ, high-tech, environmentally-aware country, or a multikulti black-brown and mixed-race mess, a “Congo-North” if you like, with ever-declining standards, pay, “welfare”, environment and culture.”
“Thousands of people left in limbo since plans to deport them to Rwanda were axed will now have their asylum claims processed in the UK, Labour has confirmed.
More than 5,000 asylum seekers were on an initial list drawn up by the previous government to be sent to Rwanda under a deal between the two countries.
One of the first acts of the Labour government was to scrap the Rwanda scheme, resulting in many of the 5,700 people the Kigali administration had agreed to accept having their claims processed in the UK asylum system. Some subsequently received decisions on their claims but it is estimated that thousands have remained in limbo.”

Even under the fake “Conservatives”, at least 80% of the applications were “processed” leading to acceptance. In other words, over 80% were being allowed to stay, meaning that they then get rights to housing, social security/”welfare” payments, and all other benefits available to the actual British population.
This latest news is, of course, the tip of the iceberg. It is probably correct to say that over 90% of migrant-invaders are now being allowed to stay in the UK, with most of the rest also in effect allowed to stay by reason of not being removed from this country. In fact, the few actually leaving are almost all doing so voluntarily, and there are very few of them.
The next step will be, as I also predicted, “processing” invaders before they even get on those rubber boats. They will then enter the UK superficially “legally”, along with the enormous number of other “legal” migrants (migrant-invaders). Between half a million and one and a half million a year.
[from 2020, during the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic]
“Businessman Simon Dolan is trying to block the government enforcing new restrictions. His lawyer tells the High Court: Deaths are 2-3% of total, considerably lower than the flu. The gov prioritises only suppression of the virus. It has an obligation to weigh all harms...”
[online news report from 2020]
Pity that, at that time, the courts (and the Government, and the news media, especially idiots such as Piers Morgan) were driven by panic and by “me-too” thinking or non-thinking.
As I predicted on the blog, the stupid shutdown of the economy and society because of a virus which was actually killing almost no-one would damage the UK for many years, and so it has transpired.

Some thoughts around the Trump tariffs etc
Assuming that the tariff wars continue and even escalate, what will result?
To my mind, the basic or overarching result will be that trade between the USA and the worst-hit other states will fall away, fall off, and then become trade among those tariff-hit states. China will deal more with Russia, India, Japan, European (including EU) states etc.
It is said that diplomacy has three main branches: classical or straight diplomacy (diplomats, intergovernmental contacts, military pacts etc), economic “diplomacy” (trade and trading incidents, eg tariffs, sanctions etc), and cultural “diplomacy” (such as that which used to exist between the Soviet Union and the West, via such bodies as the UK Foreign Office-funded G.B.-U.S.S.R. Association, to which I myself belonged in the 1980s).
Already, we can see that Russia is gradually forming a trade axis with a core group (China, North Korea, Iran) and a wider outer group (India, and numerous other states across the world). Now, the American or Trump tariffs will create a different bloc of tariff-hit states trading inter se and interpenetrating that first bloc. A kind of Venn diagram.
I can only assume that those advising Trump have it in mind to rebuild American industry and commerce by choking off the supply of foreign goods and maybe also services entering the United States, thus stimulating domestic production. That might work, though at the cost of driving up prices in many cases. However, there would obviously be consequential effects, in that retaliatory tariffs would hit American industry and commerce. China is leading the way in that regard.
The ultimate effects are still unknown. Of course, economic warfare can result in real warfare, and that has been seen time and again, as with the US-Japan situation prior to 1941.
It is not unlikely that the next major war will be between the USA and China.

That brought to mind another Lucy— Lucy Letby. I have never claimed that Lucy Letby is either innocent or guilty of the crimes wherewith she was charged. I do not know, and have not much followed the case in any detail.
However, I did say on the blog, after she was convicted, that she seemed (from what little I had read in the msm) to have been found guilty on the basis of rather loose circumstantial evidence (which is not necessarily wrong, if that evidence is or was sufficiently probative).
Now I note that some fairly weighty opinions are saying that Lucy Letby might seriously be not only victim of a miscarriage of justice but actually innocent. I neither agree nor disagree. I have not looked at the matter in anything like enough detail. However, there lurks a feeling that, maybe, she is in prison without having actually done the crime(s).

“She lived 3,500 years ago – but facial reconstruction technology has brought a woman from late bronze age Mycenae back to life.
[“The digital reconstruction of a bronze age Mycenae woman. Photograph: Juanjo Ortega G.”]
The woman was in her mid-30s when she was buried in a royal cemetery between the 16th and 17th centuries BC. The site was uncovered in the 1950s on the Greek mainland at Mycenae, the legendary seat of Homer’s King Agamemnon.
Dr Emily Hauser, the historian who commissioned the digital reconstruction, told the Observer: “She’s incredibly modern. She took my breath away.
“For the first time, we are looking into the face of a woman from a kingdom associated with Helen of Troy – Helen’s sister, Clytemnestra, was queen of Mycenae in legend – and from where the poet Homer imagined the Greeks of the Trojan war setting out. Such digital reconstructions persuade us that these were real people.”
[13th-century BC fresco from Mycenae. Photograph: Peter Eastland/Alamy]
Hauser, a senior lecturer in classics and ancient history at the University of Exeter, said: “It is incredibly exciting to think that, for the first time since she was laid beneath the ground over 3,500 years ago, we are able to gaze into the actual face of a bronze age royal woman – and it truly is a face to launch a thousand ships.
“This woman died around the beginning of the late bronze age, several hundred years before the supposed date of the Trojan war.”
A digital artist, Juanjo Ortega G, has developed the lifelike face from a clay reconstruction of the same woman that was made in the 1980s by Manchester University, pioneers of one of the major methods in facial reconstruction.“

Incidentally, Matt Goodwin, who seems to support the Jew-Zionist lobby, has never said a word in support of my free speech rights. Neither has Goodwin said anything to support persecuted satirical singer Alison Chabloz, imprisoned for posting songs and cartoons online; Goodwin never said a word on her behalf. Same goes for Jez Turner, imprisoned for making a brief speech in Whitehall (calling for the deportation of Jews from the UK).
It is suspicious that the Sun comic gives Goodwin (and Farage) a mass platform; TV shows do, as well. Would I ever be given such platforms? No.
As you can see, not one mention by Goodwin on his blog of the Jew-Zionist lobby that is the main driver of censorship and repression of free speech in the UK; notably the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, whose so-called (self-titled) “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” was once exposed in open court, and by the CAA’s own bungling solicitor, as a vicious and perverse social media troll, targeting mainly women, and doing so pseudonymously.

He quickly scuttled off, however, after my sentence (which he later described online as “absurdly lenient“) was pronounced. See my blog posts of 16 March 2024 and 17 March 2024 for more detail.

This is, at its core, about freedom. Whether you believe we are a free nation with free speech, free expression and the right to question authorities, or you don’t.“]
Toytown police state becoming a real police state…

[“I am 43 years old. I cannot recall a time in my life when I have been as depressed about the state of Britain and England —a country I love—as I am today.
Here are 5 things that happened in the last week alone that point to the terrible future that awaits our once great country unless we urgently and radically change course.
1. In the political system, a group of MPs, many of whom preside over disadvantaged neighbourhoods here in Britain, decided to lobby instead for an airport in … Pakistan … to please their Muslim constituents, thereby continuing to usher in a dark and dangerous sectarianism into our politics that was further reflected this week in the election of “independent” local candidates campaigning not on issues central to Britain but … Palestine. We are heading, slowly but surely, toward a model of sectarian politics that looks more like Lebanon than Britain.
2. In the legal system, a remote, unelected, unaccountable and self-righteous ‘Sentencing Council’ refused a request from elected government ministers to change guidelines that will entrench a two-tier legal system, whereby people from racial, sexual and gender minorities will be treated more favourably than others when handing out prison sentences, thereby violating the principle that everybody in this country should be treated equally before the law
3. In the judicial system, police decided to arrest two parents whose only ‘offence’ was to complain about their local school in a WhatsApp group, with the Orwellian school and police authorities both prioritising the ‘emotional safety’ of a few fragile teachers over the need to uphold free speech and individual liberty in this country.
4. In the immigration system, meanwhile, we learned that 6,000 illegal migrants have now arrived on our shores on small boats in the first three months of this year, 40% up on last year, with crossings happening every day this past week, taking the total since 2018 to 157,000 illegal migrants who are costing struggling British taxpayers upwards of £7 BILLION a year. This isn’t only breaking our laws but is throwing full light on the total incompetence and inability of our politicians and the UK state to control our own borders, keep our own people safe, and maintain our status as a sovereign nation.
5. And in the economy, lastly, this week we learned that our hapless rulers in Westminster are now more interested in helping foreign nationals and illegal migrants than their own people, with a Spring Statement from the Chancellor confirming they are more focused on slashing welfare and support for British pensioners, workers, and farmers, who come from these islands and whose ancestors have contributed to these islands for centuries, than they are on slashing the BILLIONS these same British taxpayers are now being forced to spend subsidising foreigners, illegal migrants, foreign criminals, our broken asylum system, and foreign aid which is still being used to support the likes of eco-farms in Nepal, obese children in China, and LGBT campaigns overseas.
Sorry, but enough is enough. The people in power, the people who are presiding over these disastrous decisions, really need to start thinking about where all this is going, where all this is pushing us as a people and a nation.
Because it’s increasingly clear, to me at least, that the eventual destination will be a very dangerous, dark and divided place indeed. There is a total lack of strong leadership in this country. We need to change course, now. We need to start putting the British people first, now. And we need to start radically reforming the entire political, legal, judicial and economic system, now. Because unless we do then we are all heading into very serious trouble.“]

Well, I am now 68, and I say the same, or similar.
Only social nationalism can save Britain and all Europe.
Exterminate evil, then build a state which can be a foundation for a better society and ethnostate and, developing over long periods of time, an eventual super-race.
The fear that Rachel Reeves is putting on disabled people and those that already suffer from conditions is horrific. I would never have voted Labour at the last election if I had known about their disgusting plans. They are no better than the Tories.
It only takes one individual to stand up, step up, and send a message that will never be forgotten.
Rachel Reeves has no credibility. She had a company credit card taken away because of misuse, she had her parliamentary credit card suspended because of misuse, she falsified her CV,and her recently published book was riddled with plagiarism. The chancellor is a fraudster #Fraudpic.twitter.com/iAJjUGOo3n
Reeves to put £2bn into affordable housing to ‘sweeten the pill’ of cuts https://t.co/4NxN5nL5KZ Chancellor will announce plans to fund 18,000 social homes before fraught spring statement on Wednesday
I am sure that the migrant-invaders and other non-Brits will appreciate the free housing. Then they can start (or continue) to breed.
More of the green countryside lost to featureless sprawl.
Is this a pic of Rachel Reeves? This homeless looking crack slag doesn't look like a gov't bigshot. She looks like she really needs a shower, a shampoo and some deodorant. Eww! https://t.co/RALSio7ein
About time that the British people awoke to the fact that most of those purporting to rule over them are their enemies.
"Take a good look at Labour’s roll call of benefits scrounges: Keir Starmer, Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves, Wes Streeting, Bridget Phillipson, Lucy Powell, and Anas Sarwar—each one a master of mooching off the system they claim to fix. Starmer’s hauled in £107,145 since…
[“Take a good look at Labour’s roll call of benefits scrounges: Keir Starmer, Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves, Wes Streeting, Bridget Phillipson, Lucy Powell, and Anas Sarwar—each one a master of mooching off the system they claim to fix. Starmer’s hauled in £107,145 since 2019—£20,437 for a lord’s flat, £16,200 in suits, £2,435 for glasses, and £18,000+ in football tickets while fans queue for crumbs. Rayner’s £3,550 wardrobe and £1,250 New York getaway, courtesy of Lord Waheed Alli, scream entitlement—she can’t even dress herself on £150,000 a year. Reeves, our tight-fisted Chancellor, snatched £7,500 in outfits, while Streeting grabbed £1,160 Taylor Swift tickets as the NHS staggers. Phillipson’s £14,000 ‘event’ cash from Alli—birthday bash, anyone?—pairs with her concert freebies, and Powell’s £40,289 since 2019 marks her as a seasoned scrounger. Sarwar’s £10,117 in Scottish perks tops his MSP rivals. Together, they’ve gorged on £220,000 in shadow cabinet handouts—£700,000 across all MPs in a year—preaching equality while pocketing privilege. Hypocrisy doesn’t just drip from this lot; it pours, a rancid flood of greed proving they think rules are for us plebs and benefits are their divine right. Utterly revolting!“]
Dear Rachel Reeves MPs claimed over £200 million in expenses over the last 3 years. Why is it their electricity, gas, council tax, and contents insurance for second homes is paid for by us, the taxpayers? #GMB#BBCBreakfast

The more that I think about the upcoming Runcorn and Helsby by-election, the more I think that Reform are going to smash it.
No matter that I could imagine Reform with a better candidate (someone such as Matt Goodwin), though the Reform candidate seems voter-acceptable, anyway. The important thing, surely, is the hatred so many people now feel for the main System parties and even more —because of the feeling of betrayal— from Labour (in fact much more than for the Conservatives who, despite their appalling record 2010-2024, are now seen as near-irrelevant, finished, washed-up).
That’s before you even factor-in the fact that the Conservative Party is now led by a Nigerian woman who also seems totally clueless. Also, Kemi Badenoch’s thunder (on social security, tax, spending cuts etc) has been stolen by Labour. Labour is just a label now, and is even less social, let alone socialist, than the Conservative Party.
For me, it is telling that the Labour candidate for the by-election is trying to ape Reform, demanding the closure of hotels occupied by migrant-invaders etc. It is clear that Labour considers Reform to be its main rival, and not only at Runcorn and Helsby.
In the past nearly 9 months, the Labour “brand” has been totally trashed. The whole population, I should have thought, has turned away from Labour. Pensioners, the young, anyone receiving any State benefit at all, anyone anti-migration invasion, anyone with any genuine feeling for the English countryside, will not be voting Labour.
The petty corruption and sleaze of the Labour Cabinet may be dwarfed by the corruption of the past years of “Con Party” misgovernment, but the point, I think, is that people, especially in the North of England, somehow expected Labour to be somehow better.
The sheer “we are the masters now” arrogance and callousness exhibited by Rachel Reeves, Liz Kendall, Starmer-stein, and their lesser followers such as Torsten Bell, has disgusted millions.
People now, after only 9 months, see this Labour-label regime as being quite as bad, and in fact worse in every way, than those of 14 years of Conservative misgovernment.
I do not think that Labour’s appalling handling of foreign affairs (by thick “diversity-hire” Lammy, as well as by Starmer-stein himself) will count for much at the by-election, either way, but people can surely see that Starmer has made a fool of himself by threatening to send (almost non-existent) troops to Ukraine etc. That is so even for people who support the Kiev regime.
I think that important factors at the by-election will include the continuing migration-invasion, the petty sleaze and corruption of Labour’s top echelon, the hypocrisy of the same, the sense of Britain as a country sliding to chaos and even civil war (albeit not this year), the behaviour of the former Labour MP, the wish to give Labour a real kick and, perhaps most important, the sense of total betrayal by Labour.
At present, both polling orgs and bookmakers predict a modest or narrow win for Reform.
I may be wrong, but I think we could be looking at a huge win by Reform. A win in the region of as much as 50% or even 60% of the vote-share. Labour? Maybe 20%-30%. Cons? 10% or below; maybe even a lost deposit.
This might turn out to be a very significant by-election result. If Reform can win it, the win might pave the way for dozens of others in this Parliament.

Wrong. The “political class” in the UK puts itself first, then its cronies and bribe-makers, and only then the migrant-invaders etc, with most British people last in line.
