We in the UK are now living under a repressive “elected” dictatorship. That would be bad enough were that all it is; however, it is also incompetent, and to a degree hard to believe even after the experience of the past 10 years.
The shutting-down of freedom of expression
“Tartan Pakistani” shutting down freedom of expression in Scotland:
It can easily be seen that this whole “Coronavirus” thing (more precisely, the government’s “lockdown” shutdown) has destroyed ordinary radical or social-national political life. Political meetings, even small ones, are effectively banned, as are the traditional means of spreading a message, such as rallies and demonstrations (though the System has accommodated the nonsense of the “Black Lives Matter” swine).
In fact, the latest “measures” from the government of Boris-idiot give even local authorities the power to shut down whole tracts of the country and whole cities on “health” grounds. Don’t tell me that such powers cannot be and will not be abused.
They will never be used irresponsibly, it's as if people think they'll use these powers like they use the RIPA act to surveil beach dog walkers or something. That almost never happens!

To quote the Bard, “Aye, there’s the rub”…even I was surprised at the zeal and relish with which Britain’s mostly rather ineffective toytown police took to their new role as bulliers of lone sunbathers, solitary swimmers and retired couples walking their dogs on beaches or in national parks.
The barking of “orders” through megaphones from inside police jeeps and helicopters, the deliberate polluting of a Derbyshire “blue lagoon” (to deter visitors), the drones following elderly fell-walkers so that the real “Covidiots”, the police, might then “shame” (as the police thought in their little brains) those walkers by having the footage posted on Twitter or Facebook.
The present government may be one composed of idiots but, thanks to an 80-seat majority in the Commons (and the absence of any effective Opposition there), the Government rules supreme. Indeed, there is more dissent from disenchanted Conservative Party people than there is from Keir Starmer’s joke “Labour” official Opposition (Jewish lobby Potemkin village), which merely supports the Government and tries to put a gloss on whatever that government orders.
Analysis, propaganda, and reasoned argument are all very well (and I engage that way myself, mainly now via this blog) but in the end, I think that we know that Europe is not going to be saved by such methods, however necessary and inescapable they are.
I make no claim to 'objectivity' @robinsall. I'm plainly biased against incompetence and stupidity, disproportionate action, mindless conformism and the bossiness of jacks-in-office such as Mat Hang Kok. The ones to watch out for are the ones who claim falsely to be impartial. https://t.co/7PYDdnVO64

It may only be one straw but there comes a point where any association with this government must end. This is not only the most incompetent government of my lifetime, it is the most authoritarian. It is not remotely conservative. https://t.co/hhMRcdDP0Xpic.twitter.com/5hjDwXez3O

The prolific tweeter and one-time TV scriptwriter, Graham Linehan, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Linehan, has been “permanently suspended” (the weasel equivalent of “expelled”) from Twitter, as I was in 2018.
I had brief interaction on Twitter with Linehan a couple of years ago. He was unpleasant, rude, and rather stupid. He also failed to say a word in support of me, both when I was disbarred —at the instigation of a pack of Jews— in 2016, and later, when I was expelled from Twitter (2018). Indeed, I think that he laughed at my being chucked off Twitter, in fact. Well, hardy ha ha…
“Do not ask for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee“, Linehan!
Alternatively, “First they came for the [people they called] ‘Nazis’, and I laughed; then they came for the ‘Alt-Right’, and I laughed; then they came for mainstream Twitter drones unwilling to accept untruth as truth, and I was one of those, and I got chucked off Twitter, because no-one then supported my freedom to express my views”…
I have never seen Linehan support the free speech rights of such as Alison Chabloz or Jez Turner, either. Maybe he wants to keep onside with the Jews, in the hope of getting his work back on television, which, in broad-brush terms, the Jews control.
Despite my not having a good opinion of this Linehan person, I support his free speech rights. I take the moral high ground.
This is all part of a campaign to remove “unwanted” opinion from all areas: newspapers, book publishing, academia, education generally, online publishing, including social media. I have blogged before about this. Some examples:
A huge number of people have been expelled from Twitter, including Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins, Ian Millard (me), Alison Chabloz. A few dissenters hang on (so far): David Icke, Nick Griffin.
Twitter becomes ever-more an echo-chamber consisting of (leaving aside the near-brain-dead, such as One Direction fans, football fans etc) two main groups: the Jewish cabal and its dupes, and/or the “antifa” idiots, faux-“socialists” etc, as well as System drones (msm, Westminster and so on).
Thus twitter becomes every day less and less representative of UK opinion as a whole, which is why its socio-political judgments go so awry: its predictions of elections, referenda etc are always wrong.
This is bloody ridiculous. They’re coming for us one by one. Stating biological facts is NOT a crime. Please join me in protesting to Twitter about the suspension of @glinner:
Graham Linehan suspended from Twitter as 'Glinner' account disappears https://t.co/HxILY2ASra
[incidentally, if you read my blog post above, you will see that some Twitter users’ tweets quoted in the article are in faint script. That is because they have now all been expelled from Twitter for posting truth about the “trans” issue. Linehan is far from being the only one. The photos they tweeted to support their case have all just gone. “Long live freedom!” Oh, no, wait…]
Here is an example of the anti-free speech mob, tweeting:
We see, constantly, on Twitter, that “XYZ is not free speech but hate speech”. That simple (simpleminded) formula can be used against pretty much any viewpoint: “racism” is not free speech but “hate speech“, “opposition to Black Lives Matter is hate speech, not free speech“, “White Lives Matter is hate speech, not free speech“, “holocaust” “denial” is not free speech but hate speech“, and so on.
At root, this anti-free-speech tendency was initiated by the Jewish-Zionist element, though in a few cases it is turned against its originators.
You only have to read tweets from various “antifa” and similar idiots on Twitter to note the glee exhibited that “another enemy/reactionary/fascist/Nazi” (etc) has been removed.
What the idiots fail to see is that, firstly, Twitter, in itself, is really not very important, and that, secondly, they are just the unwitting dupes of the System, which is playing them like a balalaika. Thirdly, that it might happen to them, and since many of the “anti-fascist” idiots seem to have no life outside Twitter, that may hit them hard…(rubs hands).
They also neglect the fact that, if peaceful means of socio-political expression are removed from the British people, the British people, or some of them, may turn to less peaceful means of expression. If that happens, all bets are off as to what might transpire.
Priti Patel and Robert Jenrick
Priti Patel, the terminally thick East African Asian presently posing as Home Secretary, was on the Andrew Marr Show earlier. For me, life is too short to waste much time on the lying words of a stupid but cunning woman who, had it not been for Idi Amin, would have been fronting a Kampala grocery store rather than UK government policy. Still, here is what she said:
"because all of the documentation showing just how much the Honest Bob jenrick affair stinks… the matter is now deemed to be closed" https://t.co/dTGSFG3k1n
I have blogged already about Jewish lobby tool and corrupt little pissant, Robert Jenrick. Priti Patel is another Conservative Friends of Israel member, who was, notoriously, sacked by Theresa May for, in effect, playing the traitor in Israel.
‘We have to be very conscientious about a second wave.’ I think Priti Patel means ‘conscious’ on #Marr. She is the most effortlessly thick politician of my lifetime.
Priti Patel is not a very good advertisement for the University of Essex. Actually, thinking about it, I have never met a University of Essex graduate who is a good advertisement for it…(I believe that her main degree was from Keele, of which I know little).
Another thing Jenrick and Patel have in common:
Home Secretary Priti Patel was paid £1000ph by US military tech supplier Viasat. When she took the job, she didn't seek approval – breaking the Ministerial Code again!
Well, it took a while, but now you’re getting it, Vance, old boy!
Priti Patel signed a treaty that allows the US to demand UK firms hand over private data. Our right to privacy is being massively undermined by a government with an authoritarian ideology…#ShameOnYouTories#Marr#Ridgepic.twitter.com/Krey7NhQYt
Disgraced Home Secretary Priti Patel said she wants people to be terrified at the thought of committing a crime. Unlike when she committed treasonous acts by attending 12 unrecorded meetings with the Israelis…#ToryShambles#marr#ridgepic.twitter.com/FKSGI4PEry
The problem with a government like this, meaning hopeless, incompetent, nasty, traitorous, an elected dictatorship, but “voted into office” via a completely fixed political and electoral system, is that, until the next general election, there is simply no “peaceful” way to remove it or its Cabinet ministers; and even if the fake “Conservatives” (ZOG facade) were to be removed from office in an election, all that would happen is that a very similar ZOG-“Labour” government would replace them.
Simulacrum of a Scot
Pakistani “Scotsman by invasion” denigrates the very Scots (white Scots…there are no others!) who gave him, those like him, and their families, refuge. He calls for White Genocide, in effect.
Why does he say ‘white’ as if it’s a nasty swear word?
This is clear racism against ‘white’ people. All racism is evil. Bring back Enlightenment human equality.
Scotland is 96% ‘white’. So only natural that positions reflect population. https://t.co/v0DtNrqqXc
I am unsure as to which particular Pakistani “Scot” this is. There are so many now in Scottish political life, both in (misnamed) SNP and (misnamed) Labour.
Actually, what the hell is wrong with the Scottish people these days? They accept fake “nationalism” led by a fake “nationalist” party, they allow Pakistanis like the one in the clip to get away, as it might be put, scot-free with calling for the elimination or subordination of the (real) Scottish people; they often seem to contain the most deluded or brainwashed of the UK’s people in terms of race, culture, the EU etc, and they mostly voted Remain. Why do any of the Scots vote for non-whites to be MSPs? National madness (not that England is very much better right now).
Well, there it is…
Well, there it is, the Sudanese who stabbed six people in Glasgow. Another fake “refugee”. What have “refugees welcome” dimwits Yvette Cooper and “@ZoeJardiniere” said about this? Anything? Nothing?
My view? He should have been shot before he stabbed six people in the street. Oh, but of course, I am an “extremist”…My view? The “extremists” are the political criminals who import trash like this into the UK.

Update, 30 June 2020
The censorship on YouTube (some people call it “JewTube”), intensifies:
“The former footballer, 68, has made controversial unproven claims about the virus on several internet platforms, including a discredited theory that it is linked to the rollout of the 5G mobile network.
Famous medics including Dr Christian Jessen and former junior doctor Adam Kay have called on social networks to remove Icke from their platforms.” [The Guardian].
Incidentally, the “famous medics” mentioned above (of whom I had never heard) are both gay doctors who are better known as TV personages. One, Adam Kay, is a Jew who left medical practice after an incident described in Wikipedia thus: “Kay worked as a doctor between 2004 to 2010, leaving the profession after a patient suffered an undiagnosed placental abruption; the expectant mother was subsequently taken to the intensive care unit, while the foetus was delivered stillborn.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Kay_(writer)#Medicine.
The other “famous medic”, Jessen, while having called for the removal of David Icke for having expressed an opinion on “Coronavirus”, has been criticized for his own views: “During the COVID-19 pandemic, Jessen sparked criticism for comments, saying that Italian COVID-19 countermeasures were an “excuse for a long siesta”. He also commented on the severity of the pandemic, regarding it only as a case of bad cold and scaremongering by the media.[22]” {Wikipedia].
The controversial Jew-Zionist activist and TV face, Rachel Riley, also commented.
“The Countdown presenter Rachel Riley celebrated Icke’s departure from the the popular website, tweeting: “The UK’s foremost hate peddler/conspiracy grifter has finally been chucked off Twitter.” [The Guardian].
Leading @KingsCollegeLon academic makes the case for regulation of social media citing landmark conviction of Alison Chabloz brought about by CAAhttps://t.co/rDV9JGC19V
— Campaign Against Antisemitism (@antisemitism) June 23, 2020
[above: David Icke, not the so-called “leading academic”]
The “CAA” describes Allington’s piece in the Sun “newspaper” as an “op-ed“, meaning a piece of opinion commissioned by the newspaper (sometimes unpaid). The term was first in use, I believe, in the Jew-infested New York Times (“all the news that fits”…), and the New York Times “op-ed” page was once described by Presidential candidate Pat Buchanan as the “Amen Corner” of the newspaper, because the scribblers were all Jew-Zionist neo-cons pushing the Israel First interventionist foreign policy line.
This is yet another attempt by what one might call “ZOG” and/or the Jewish lobby to destroy free speech, both online and offline. (((They))) have been pushing this for 60 years now, at first (of course) re. print media, now re. Internet publishing too.
As for the Sun “newspaper”, Rupert Murdoch has always been even more pro-Israel than most Jews (he himself is said to be part-Jew), and the Sun “newspaper” is and always has been slavishly pro-Israel and pro-Jewish lobby.
It is beyond ironic that Allington got his nonsense printed only in the Sun, long notorious for its invented “news reports” and other trash. There again, perhaps Allington simply does not quite “get” irony…

I would not normally repost anything from the unpleasant “Hope Not Hate” Jewish lobby group, but this is worth brief perusal:
I could have written 10,000 words on every section of Freddy Vachha's CV, but had to limit myself to a blog format. Truly incredible stuff.https://t.co/xeKUkvBmKF
So UKIP goes from bad to worse. The quite large quasi-System party “controlled opposition” of years ago has slid inexorably into Monster Raving Loony territory. There was an “interim leader”, some lady called Pat Mountain, and who was (as UKIP leaders since Farage have all been) as thick as two short planks; now this. An Indian with a faked-up CV, who is “libertarian”, and who wants to work against “Nazi” ideas and against “holocaust” “denial” (historical re-examination and revision). Just mad.
UKIP was always a bit of a joke, and was never social-national, but this surely takes the biscuit! I don’t know why the “Hope Not Hate” snoopers are making fun of this Vachha person, though. He sounds not so far from them in some ways, ideologically. Maybe he will join them.
A Joseph Rowntree report. Possibly worth reading:

We often underestimate what even one human being can achieve over time. It has been said that many people overestimate what they can achieve in a year, yet underestimate what they can achieve in 10 years. Look at Adolf Hitler. In his first year as political leader, he achieved comparatively little. Even nine years later, in 1928, his party received only 2.6% of the national vote. However, by 1932, that had increased to 33%; the following year, the vote was 44% and he was able to take on full powers of rulership.
[makes you think…]
Tom Watson
Well, as I predicted last year would happen, the Jewish lobby has found a well-paid sinecure for former Labour Party deputy leader, Tom Watson, who was notoriously in the pocket of the Jewish lobby, as well as being a relentless expenses cheat (until the system was slightly reformed, he was even blagging £500 a month on expenses —without fail— for foodalone!)
Now I read that Watson has been appointed Chair of UK Music: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Music. Another “Labour” ex-MP entirely controlled by the Jewish lobby, Michael Dugher, was CEO until recently. Dugher is now the head of another body, to wit, Chief Executive of the Betting and Gaming Council (((BGC))).
In fact, I just discovered that, several years ago, around 2013, Tom Watson was “personally involved” with the (20 years younger) Stephanie Peacock, who was at the time trying to become a Labour Party MP. I do not know whether the affair continued, or continues. She failed in her first attempt to get into the MP racket, in 2015, but succeeded in her second, at the 2017 General Election, having been selected (by the National Executive Committee of the Labour Party, i.e. not by the local party) only a week before the election, for the —then— safe seat of Barnsley East. Oh, and guess who was, back in 2013, Chairman of the Labour Party NEC? That’s right…Tom Watson.
Now, Stephanie Peacock retweets posts by the Jewish lobby “Hope Not Hate” crowd. Once you start digging through the compost, you see that it is all (((connected))).

The Japanese, while quite impressive in some ways, indulge in habits which may or may not be harmless but which we (as a “nation”) do not do: buying used schoolgirls’ panties from vending machines, overnighting in coffin-like transparent capsules, washing before getting into a bath etc. I put the wearing of facemasks into that sort of category.

The young hero who organized the recent “White Lives Matter” aerial banner has been sacked from his job at a factory. “Long live freedom”. Not in the UK!

Oh, and here is part-Jew “prime minister” Boris-idiot with the same Jew businessman, who seems to be sporting an Eton tie (lefthand photo below), though he did not attend Eton (he went to a local authority school in North London: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ%27s_College,_Finchley#Notable_former_pupils). Boris Johnson (who did attend Eton) is not wearing an Eton or OE tie).
The tories refused to allow the BBC to use these photos yesterday. Nothing says ‘innocent’ like threatening public service broadcasters with legal action. https://t.co/brNEz2S5mk
Now why would Keir Starmer, new leader of the “Labour” Party, be so unwilling to attack the behaviour of pissant Robert Jenrick of the “Conservative” Party? Could it because both are in the pocket of the Jewish-Zionist-Israel lobby, both have Jewish wives (both of which are lawyers, too!), and both have half-Jewish children that both are bringing up as Jewish? Answers on a postcard…
Oh, and the Conservative Party donor and businessman (property vulture, publisher of porn etc) involved, and who gained £40 million by Jenrick’s corruption, is a Jew. What a shock. Not.

Sad to hear that Roy Horn, of the stage act Siegfried and Roy, died. I recall seeing Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous on TV feature them, when I lived in the USA about 30 years ago. They had a fabulous villa in the desert near Las Vegas and lived there with their huge and beautiful white tigers. In general, I don’t like stage acts involving animals, but Siegfried and Roy really loved their big cats (white tigers, lions, leopards). Pity that the full episode featuring them at home is not up on YouTube at present.
Britain 2020, where free speech is being killed
This ghastly little bastard, Evan Smith [see below] has written a book attempting to weasel about preventing people from giving lectures or speeches thought unsuitable by the “anti-fascist” thug element. What this is, is an attempt to intellectually legitimize censorship and socio-political repression.
It will be noted that one Aurelien Mondon of the University of Bath, and one Gavan Titley of Maynooth University (the place in Ireland from where most of their censorious Roman Catholic priests used to be churned out), have both endorsed this new book, for what such endorsement is worth.
My view has always been that there should be absolute freedom of speech on socio-political, historical and religious topics. If others want to restrict such freedom, and make it all about who has the biggest club or the most weapons, then that is their decision, their choice and their self-judgment.
Labour continues to bump along the bottom vis a vis the misnamed “Conservatives”. Keir Starmer, dull as ditchwater, and Lisa Nandy, humourless and not particularly intelligent political-correctness banner-carrier. No chance. I suppose that both they and the Labour rank and file think that, in the UK’s unfair binary system of ping-pong politics, if people tire of Boris-idiot and his entourage, the electorate will have nowhere to go but Labour. Don’t be so sure. Look at what happened in and after 2015 in Scotland.
While Labour has rarely had so many committed members and supporters, they number only about 600,000. That may seem many, and actually does make Labour the largest political party in Europe, but is still only about 1%-2% of the electorate.

George Orwell tried to imagine how a less free UK might be taken over. What he did not quite foretell was that old-established liberties and norms (eg the right to leave your house, to walk in the park with a friend, to stroll on a beach with the same, the right for shopkeepers to open shops, or the right to drive in the country for a change of scenery) might be extinguished, not by Stalinist despots and grim-faced soldiers, but by incompetent Old Etonians and Oxford graduates, by a part-Jew public entertainer posing as Prime Minister, and by a kind of toytown police patrolling roads to see whether someone is “allowed” to drive to the country, or the same uniformed clowns patrolling city parks and popular beaches to lecture old couples and solitary sunbathers.
It’s that that is so bizarre: the mixture of the repressive and the clownish; the mixture of emergent police state rigour, the remnants of “policing by consent”. Those elements and, of course, the utter illogic of it all, “sanctified” by the ludicrous and pathetic officially-mandated and promoted weekly community clapping sessions…

I am the last person likely to be accused of being “pro-black” and/or “socially-liberal”, but this clip, below, showing a black man shot (with a taser) by Manchester Police, is truly shocking:
What disturbs me more than anything is that the black was shot in front of his small child. Something like that could have lifelong negative psychological effects, with bad results for society too.
I do not have the facts behind what is shown, so do not want to be too swift to judge, but surely there must be an inquiry into this.

The combination of social disruption and economic disruption, combined with floundering by the System parties, provides the best chance for social nationalism since the 1930s, but that opportunity can only be grounded if there exists a social-national party or movement to act as lightning rod and vanguard.
We are told that the Coronavirus COVID-19 started spontaneously in a seafood and live animal market in Wuhan, China, a country where people, or some people, treat animals appallingly, and where many eat strange things such as bats.
That may be true. I cannot say that it is untrue. There are, however, dissenting voices, that is to say voices dissenting from the official narrative. I was sent this:
I was at first inclined to accept the official narrative as most likely correct. Now? Not sure.
What interests me more are the socio-political effects of the Coronavirus on the world and particularly the UK. In particular, I noted that the near-dictatorial powers which the Government of the UK has taken on are not designed to last for a few weeks, a few months. No…they are drafted to last for TWO YEARS. I think that we are entitled to ask why that is so.
True, the powers taken by the UK Government can be removed again by Commons vote (every 6 months or, in constitutional principle, at any time), but this government, with its 80-strong majority, can push through extensions easily, if it wants.
Boris-idiot, posing as PM, has shown little or no leadership, but that has not prevented “Conservative” scribblers from behaving like the most sycophantic Stalinists in the Soviet Writers’ Union (of about 1948). Look at this creature:
An assured performance by @borisjohnson who was speaking like the head of a wartime government. ‘We are all enlisted,’ he said.
Most people are natural followers. Few like to have to think for themselves. In this case, spurred by natural feelings of fear, anxiety etc, most people want to “do the right thing” and that can include thinking the “right” thing.
Despite the above, a minority is beginning to question the origin of Coronavirus, the fairly draconian measures now being taken by the UK government and, even leaving all that aside, whether the economic stimulus is being done in the right way.
Peter Hitchens has tweeted scornfully about the situation
Then they are complacent fools, who do not deserve the liberty they inherited, and so will lose it for themselves and their children. Shaming. https://t.co/WtpSz8uCvP
They're exaggerating its importance, and sliding over the fact that people who die *with* coronavirus did not necessarily die *of* it. Average number of flu deaths in England for last 5 seasons was 17,000 deaths annually. Ranged from 1,692 deaths (2018/19) to 28,330 in 2014/15. https://t.co/LxOPcBBfvL
Prepare for an outbreak of informing. The Johnson house arrest scheme is an ideal opportunity for the spiteful and the vengeful, to report neighbours for what would have been legal on Monday. Ugh.
So humiliating to have to confess to foreign admirers of British freedom that our liberties were suppressed by a clown, and the British people rolled over and accepted it. Lots of national songs now need to be rewritten.
Twaddle. Until tonight I was free to leave my home whenever I chose for whatever purpose I chose for as long as I chose, and go wherever I chose, a freedom I used to the full. Now all those freedoms have been extinguished. And by a clown. https://t.co/70O0TDeoO2
Well, almost no dissenting voices. But those who *do* dissent can be guaranteed to receive a slime-storm of abuse and calls for them to be silenced. https://t.co/QZ8U3ly0t5
Perhaps they felt the advice was oppressive and disproportionate ( as it was) . Until today they were free to do so. Now they live in a comic-opera police state Please watch https://t.co/Q9FmTDybIDhttps://t.co/kEt0T4D0J0
Because @KD_dono the danger is gravely over-rated, and the measures proposed unproven, damaging disproportionate and most unlikely to succeed. Listen to a real expert here https://t.co/Q9FmTDybIDhttps://t.co/chyC4T4ngU
Al Johnson's brilliant plan: like a doctor treating a pneumonia victim by amputating his leg. AS a result, the man has one leg, and still has pneumonia. When the sufferer eventually recovers from pneumonia, Johnson will say he has cured him. But he will still only have one leg.
Now listening to 'debate' in Commons on major stifling of personal liberty. One can only assume that there is now a stringent test to prevent intelligent people from becoming MPs. A rare government success if so.
Clown puts country under house arrest. Country doesn't care. So perishes one of the freest societies ever to exist in human history, amid giggles and bad science. And suckers who believe state propaganda. Govt has no idea what it is doing: https://t.co/Q9FmTDybID
Anyone else out there still have any regard for liberty? It is striking that the country of Magna Carta, Habeas Corpus, and the Bill of Rights should be put under house arrest by a clown. This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang, but with a giggle.
But what is interesting is how many people attack me for attacking this blatant assault upon liberty. This is how you can tell the country is finished. And people used to ask me, they really did, why I urged them to get out while they could.
I'm partly mocking Alexander Johnson's ridiculous, sinister government because I'm worried that tomorrow night he'll come on TV to tell me I am not allowed to mock the government. Unthinkable you say? How unthinkable was national house arrest a week ago?
Ridiculous and Sinister – the policy of the Johnson government. The man who crashed the economy and put the nation under house arrest while he was doing it.
I do not agree with everything written or said by Hitchens, who is also, in fact, not the great champion of freedom he likes to present as (he blocked me on Twitter a few years ago when he discovered a. that I could match his erudition and b. that the Jewish lobby trolls were hostile to me; I presumed that he did not want to lose his lucrative msm work), but his tweets here are important, because they go against both an almost hysterical official narrative and also an unthinking public.
Hitchens is on to something here, and makes a few valid points for sure. He is not alone.
Others have noted unreported factors or strange anomalies in the present government policy:
The economy was due to crash anyway, this virus is the patsy. Also allows them to bring in draconian laws that will be used to control the masses of unemployed in the near future
Just spoke to my friend who is cabin crew on a BA A380. About 45 minutes ago he landed at Heathrow from HKONG and disembarked over 300 British Chinese. Why ffs?

The “lockdown” relies on people self-censoring, “doing the right thing” if you like. I am not opposed to that as matters stand with “the virus”, but I am very uneasy with where this is all leading.
I am presently blogging separately about where UK society and economy will be in a while. We are approaching a massive change across the world, particularly across Europe. 2022 will bring change on a scale not seen since socialism in all forms collapsed in and after 1989. It’s a 33-year cycle which has interested me for a long time.
We must be clear. These restrictions can only work if the general population goes along with them. I don’t mean “work” in terms of suppressing Coronavirus infections. The restrictions may or may not work in that sense. I do not know. No, what I mean is “will the restrictions work in terms of enforcement?”
Most people will no doubt go along with the restrictions for a few weeks. If this situation continues for longer, probably not. It has been reported that the police have been told to expect 6 months of this! I cannot see the population sitting still indefinitely.
The head of the Police Federation has now said that officers
are unsure how to enforce the new “lockdown” measures;
are already ignoring crime because prioritizing the enforcement of “lockdown”.
I cannot see how the two above statements can be easily reconciled, but the law was ever “a ass…a idiot”, as one character from Dickens expostulates.
At this stage, it is clear that the portentous announcement, by a clownish Prime Minister, of “lockdown”, is a kind of sleight of hand, or if you prefer, confidence trick. The State, as matters stand, cannot actually enforce these strictures. It is reliant on the population agreeing with them and playing ball.
I suppose that the police could impose road blocks between towns or even within towns, but the police officers would have no way of checking whether any one motorist is on a legitimate mission of mercy, of shopping for supplies, of commuting to a “essential” job, or whether that motorist is going to a house party (banned under the regs) or simply driving around because bored. If that last, why shouldn’t he, really? Someone in a car is not going to infect anyone by reason of simply driving around.
It is hard to escape the view that at least part of all of this is designed to create an atmosphere in which a fearful population submits to State orders. Of course, behind that is, also, the real threat from Coronavirus.
Despite the plaudits heaped upon Rishi Sunak for opening the gates of the money dam, I wonder what the outcome will be, a year or two down the line. Not good, I think. However, I shall examine that more in my (not yet published) blog on the socio-economic aspects of the virus crisis.
As blogged about previously, the police in the UK are gradually abandoning the population, especially the white English population. The police, behaving as a Poundland KGB, prefer to concentrate on political or socio-political “crime” such as “racist” tweets etc. Or now, “prioritizing lockdown”.
Another absurdly ambiguous Govt. press conference. Zero clarity re whether people should go to work or not, what constitutes 'essential' etc. Why can't they get their damn messaging right? Health Secretary @MattHancock says 'it's crystal clear'. It's NOT!
Went out not long before darkness fell. Intended to visit a chemist’s, only to find it shut by reason of truncated opening hours. Nuisance. Drove to small village shop a few miles further on. Near to its new 1800 closing time. No bread, but bought a little milk and some local asparagus. I noticed that some dry pasta was available. I myself have no need for any more, but it was heartening to see that not all had sold, even if only basic spaghetti. At least the shelves were not bare, except for the bread shelf (and even that had a sad and solitary roll still on sale).
As for other people: a few couples walking in the country lanes, a few solitary dog walkers too in the semi-suburbanized villages, a few bicyclists. No one at the little shop noted above. Roads very quiet, even the nearest rural A-road. No sign of police activity of any kind, even in the local town. General impression of an almost-closed-down society.
Poignant, but what struck me was the “two degrees” bit. Why does someone with two degrees work in a pub (for years)? The answer —unless the degrees were only completed out of interest— must be that, from the strictly vocational/job point of view, “degrees” (an outdated mediaeval concept anyway) are now next to worthless on the open jobs market (even though quite ordinary jobs now “require” a “degree”). When everyone and his dog has a degree, what is a degree worth? Not much.
The corollary to the above is that one must ask why the State should subsidize those educational qualifications that are valueless, in direct terms, to the State and society.
I suggest that anyone who can spare a few pounds buys from other places (Amazon and Abe Books are infested and will not usually sell it, but you can google for “Judenfrei” suppliers) a copy of The Protocols of Zion. Then send it either to any prison library (in UK, newpaperbacks only are accepted), or to the school or college library of whatever institutes of learning that they may have attended in the past.
Freedom of expression on social, political and historical topics must be protected. The Jewish-Zionist lobby is trying, in various ways, to restrict that freedom for its own tribal ends and purposes.
The Protocols of Zion, often misdescribed as “a forgery”, is in fact literary fantasy which, however, describes the outline of a true situation. I suggest that it be disseminated and read as widely as possible.
System desperation
Both BBC News and Sky News featured an opinion poll claiming that most UK people think that the government of Boris-idiot is handling Coronavirus well. This must be “fake news”. Admittedly, I have spoken directly to few people about this, but so far no-one at all thinks that this complacent excuse for a government is behaving well or efficiently. Social media, again, is a poor guide to full public opinion, but Twitter is largely scathing.
It seems to me that the System is desperate to maintain a narrative to the effect that it “has control”, when in reality it has lost control. It does not take much of a leap of imagination to envisage what might happen in an even worse situation.
Say what you like about Blair (and I am and always have been totally opposed to him), but he is or was a pretty good public speaker. (Shame, though, about the deliberate importation of untold millions of blacks, browns, Roma gypsies and low-pay labour units, war on behalf of the NWO and Israel in Iraq, “mega-casino” plans, and most of his other policies…).
Coronavirus latest
NEW: Britons should get ready for “changes to our way of life and what our country looks like”
— ministers say measures will be extended for months rather than weeks — lasting from the end of March until at least the summer and “perhaps a lot longer”https://t.co/9LZP2YDVT0
I was and still am sceptical about some of the conspiracy theories that have been emerging, but I am now wondering where this is going (whether by design or opportunism): “Ministers are urging Boris Johnson to pass legislation that will radically extend the government’s emergency powers capabilities beyond the current 30 day time-limit.” [BuzzFeed News]
Profiteering
It is rare that I agree with “antifa” cheerleader Mike Stuchbery, but I do on the very rare occasions when he tweets the truth:
Some countries imprisoned people for this stuff during wartime. A few even issued the death penalty. https://t.co/UTQq99CJBs
I did not much like what I saw (on TV) of Bercow: my primary criticism of his behaviour is that he was biased. He openly ranted against the BNP to the schoolchildren’s play “Parliament”, at a time when the BNP were within sight of winning a few seats, in 2009 or 2010. A silly and nasty little person, who seemed unable to control his drunken slut of a wife.
Historical note
It’s an extraordinary thought that there is probably more time BETWEEN the painting of these two horses at Chauvet cave (>30,000 years ago) and Niaux cave (~15,000 years ago) as there is between the Niaux cave art and us #IceAgeArtpic.twitter.com/ZFAq7m2Abf
Mr Miller, 54, was speaking on the steps of the High Court on Friday morning after partially winning his case against the force which descended on his workplace in response to a tweet they deemed to be “transphobic”.
The limerick, which was posted on social media, was recorded as a “hate incident”, despite the police admitting that no crime was committed.” [Hull Live]
“He argued that Humberside Police, following the College of Policing’s guidance, had sought to “dissuade him (Mr Miller) from expressing himself on such issues in the future”, which he said was “contrary to his fundamental right to freedom of expression”.
The judge said Mr Miller strongly denies being prejudiced against transgender people, and regards himself as taking part in the “ongoing debate” about reform of the Gender Recognition Act 2004, which the Government consulted on in 2018.
Announcing the court’s decision, Mr Justice Julian Knowles said: “The claimant’s tweets were lawful and that there was not the slightest risk that he would commit a criminal offence by continuing to tweet.
“I find the combination of the police visiting the claimant’s place of work, and their subsequent statements in relation to the possibility of prosecution, were a disproportionate interference with the claimant’s right to freedom of expression because of their potential chilling effect.”
The judge added that the effect of the police turning up at Mr Miller’s place of work “because of his political opinions must not be underestimated”.
He continued: “To do so would be to undervalue a cardinal democratic freedom. In this country we have never had a Cheka, a Gestapo or a Stasi. We have never lived in an Orwellian society.” [Grimsby Live]

It occurs to me that, just as Gandhi promoted the idea of “mass disobedience” in India, the users of social media might simply, en masse, refuse to go along with the nonsense that has been imposed for many years past, certainly since the Blair elected dictatorship passed the very bad law known as Communications Act 2003, s.127): http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/21/section/127
Twitter users and others should take their courage in their hands and surge through the trammels put in their way by bad law and manipulative special interest groups such as the Jewish lobby.
Dominic Cummings and the Boris-idiot reshuffle
This is the person now effectively in charge of what passes for a government of the UK, in a situation where the part-Jew sociopath posing as Prime Minister cannot do anything but come up with schoolboy plans to build bridges over oceans etc:
I can't get enough of Dominic Cummings thinking he is a genius but actually being a certifiable nobheadpic.twitter.com/eYzlGDUzBC
This is like some low-budget sci-fi/futuristic film, in which the government is run secretly from a rubbish-strewn inner London street and by someone whose only camouflage missing is a stack of copies of The Big Issue.
Meanwhile, as in the days of the more corrupt late-Roman emperors, or the mid-1970s’ Harold Wilson government of “Lady Forkbender” and her “Lavender List”, influence and indeed power is wielded not only by some eccentric posing as a dystopian “genius” but also by the “ho” of the idiot trying to pose as Prime Minister of this poor country.
Boris-idiot has a problem, because he himself is actually incapable of running the proverbial whelk stall. His metier is that of the part-Jew public entertainer.
What makes it worse is that Dominic Cummings is actually right on several issues, such as, inter alia, the need to deport black and other criminals— and the equally important need to stop the HS2 madness.
Suella Braverman
“Suella Braverman…is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, in The Guardian]
Just in case you weren't sufficiently worried for Britain, here's new Attorney General Suella Braverman – displaying all the intellectual clarity of a discarded potato salad that's been left to rot in the baking sun for two weeks.pic.twitter.com/6xgmOR5hQ5
Suella Braverman is yet another post-1997 political drone (elected 2015) who thinks that it is terribly clever to keep repeating the same phrases. I suppose that there are many average Joes who, reading the Daily Mail, Sun etc, think that a woman who is a barrister and has appeared in the High Court frequently must be highly intelligent, but those of us who have or have had similar status (and, as in my case, were also frequently in the High Court at one time) are harder to convince!

The Cabinet of idiots
“Whitehall is now littered with…secretaries of state such as Gavin Williamson, while Liz Truss – who’d lose a battle of wits with an emoji – is the longest serving cabinet minister.”
“I’m afraid Johnson’s much-vaunted reshuffle this week merely served as a reminder that the only positive discrimination scheme in this country that has long functioned to the highest level is the one that puts idiots in the cabinet. By this metric, the loss of Andrea Leadsom is a blow, but one that’s more than made up for by the promotion of the likes of Oliver Dowden, Alok Sharma, Anne-Marie Trevelyan and Suella Braverman. Braverman in particular is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, The Guardian]
If only, after 1945, the European powers had agreed to co-operate in developing Africa as a continent, populating it with white people, taking care of the Africans, the wildlife, the environment, creating towns, cities, farms, with the environment, the animals, the birds being protected. No “African nationalists”, no corrupt and hopelessly incompetent African dictators or greedy African “democratic” politicians, no predation by marauders, whether African armed bands or greedy transnational companies.
Since then, the question has grown in public awareness.
The writer of the piece below, one Graham Linehan, was rude to me on Twitter (I think something to do with the Jewish Question), and applauded my getting expelled from Twitter in 2018, so it would be natural to put “the finger” up to him or tell him —at least— to get lost, but the topic is too important, even if he himself (see some of the comments appended to the newspaper report) is a flawed messenger:
Psychologist @dianna_kenny says social contagion, fed by trans activists, affects not just troubled teenage girls diagnosed with gender dysphoria but also doctors, legislators and educators | UPDATED news report, with thoughtful detransitioner video https://t.co/SEU91QP2Nq
It contains features which have become common in recent years, in this case a scruffy and drunken passenger, violent behaviour on a flight, followed by a meaningless telling-off by a judge and an even less meaningful and overly-lenient sentence, all justified by typically politically-correct references to mentally-afflicted offspring etc. Oh, and let’s not forget the “therapy” that this drunken lout is alleged to be now undergoing…
Look at the facts: firstly, the lout claims to be a “self-employed builder”. Oh yes? Probably a scammer of some kind. Surname “Ginty”. Tinker? Probably. Then we have the fact that the lout has 15 previous convictions for 25 offences, some certainly serious.
I know that this is Manchester but surely, even in Manchester, 15 serious convictions cannot be glossed over simply because the accused has not been before the courts since 2007? For one thing, the police are now so generally useless that it may just be that he has avoided justified arrest and charge since then (and yes, as a former barrister, I am aware that a sentencing judge cannot simply assume that the accused has “got away with” other crimes; I am also aware of the effect of “spent” convictions). This crime was more than serious enough to justify a custodial sentence (even in these days when the only people likely to be hunted down, charged, convicted and imprisoned are those who are insufficiently effusive about Jews or whatever).
Look at the harm done to others here, not least to the crew member who was hit hard as he sat writing notes. This drunken thug terrorized a cabin full of passengers too. The only good thing is that he missed his flight because removed from the aircraft.
The judge took into account the negative consequences on the accused’s children (who are obviously mentally-afflicted anyway, probably by their father’s behaviour), but did not take properly into account the message sent to the public by this judicial leniency. The courts must stop pandering to alcohol or drug-fuelled emotionalism in public.
True, there were fairly strong non-custodial penalties handed down (suspended sentence, much unpaid work, £500 compensation, £425 court costs) but for me the message sent to the public was weak.
Are the peasants revolting?
I wonder to what extent this supposedly fly-on-wall clip reflects the popular mood in Moscow, or was it a set-up or fake?
The BBC, in the catchphrase of Private Eye, “getsmuchworse”.
I heard a BBC World Service interviewer, interviewing a Georgian lady about the Stalin-era sanatoria at Tsqaltubo, near Kutaisi, in former Soviet Georgia
The item was quite interesting, but the absurd came in when the interviewee was asked who went there in Stalin’s day. The answer: Communist Party people, but also those who were considered to have been hard workers in their industry, such as mining. The BBC drone then referred to the miners as “the men and women miners”! Women miners?! To be fair to the BBC, there were a few in the Soviet Union at one time, but not many:
At least the idiot did not make tick-box reference to LGBT etc stuff…
Sadly, it seems that the ornate Stalin-era sanatoria, i.e. spa hotels, have been allowed to decay; that does not take long in a subtropical climate.
Postscript
Bloody hell! Even as I finished the above paragraphs, the BBC World Service, which is now just another bad joke, struck again, with some idiot talking about Brexit and UK fishing rights, and referring to “fish sold by UK fishermen…and fisherwomen.” UK “fisherwomen”?! Ha ha! The BBC idiot only just remembered to add “and fisherwomen”, in order to make his sentence clearly “non-sexist”. This country is so screwed, it’s not true…
Meanwhile, the “political correctness” madness is being challenged
“[A] policeman told Harry that he was in trouble for retweeting a ‘transphobic’ limerick.” [Daily Mail].
This is not a reworked Fawlty Towers or Monty Python sketch. This actually happened!
“He was told that he was also being investigated for tweeting support for BBC Woman’s Hour presenter Jenni Murray, who had been criticised by Oxford students after writing a newspaper article questioning whether transgender women are ‘real women’.” [Daily Mail]
“Harry was told in the conversation at Tesco that he had not broken the law but was guilty of a ‘non-crime’ hate incident. According to court papers, the constable explained to him: ‘Sometimes, a woman’s brain grows a man’s body in the womb and that is what transgender is.’” [Daily Mail]
“When Harry asked why the officer kept calling the person who had made the complaint a ‘victim’, when no crime had been established, he was told ‘that’s just how it works’.” [Daily Mail]
“Since the catch-all guidance was released, police forces have recorded at least 87,000 non-crime hate incidents — none of which break the law.” [Daily Mail]
The police drone actually said to the citizen now fighting back, “I need to check your thinking.” This is the police state emerging in plain sight.
I might add that I myself have been subjected to similar:
…and not only in that 2017 incident. A year later, in 2018, a mentally-disturbed Jewess (on medication), apparently resident in Barnet, North London, actually prevailed upon her local (((occupied))) police to telephone me and try to intimidate me into altering completely lawful posts on the GAB platform (the Jewish lobby had already had me expelled from Twitter).
The policeman (a constable) actually had the cheek to send me through the post a purported (but legally-ineffective) notice warning me about “harassment” (despite the fact that I had never had any direct contact with the said Jewess!)… In fact, I myself was the real victim of harassment, by that woman and by a pack of other Jews, all connected with the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” fake charity. I actually had to write to the Commissioner of Metropolitan Police and to the Barnet Police Borough Commander! Even then the same policeman tried to continue for a short while!
This is how the “rule of law” decays: when the police become politicized, subject to backstairs pressure, biased etc (not to mention both ignorant of the law and over-estimating the scope of their own *lawful* powers…).
Radio 4
Just listened on BBC Radio 4 at 0545 to some poor lady, grieving for her father, and droning on endlessly (as it seemed). I felt sorry for her, but this was, imo, not good radio. Have some regard for the listeners, for God’s sake!
Voting intention
I am not sure whether it means much, 4+ years before any likely general election, but for whatever it is worth, Survation has come out with a new poll:
Nothing much there. Conservatives at top by default, because so far they have been cautious about doing anything. Labour still moribund, LibDems, at 10% rather higher than I would have thought (maybe Remain signallers), and Brexit Party on 3% (who are they, that 3%?!) alongside Greens.
John le Carre is a very fine writer in his chosen field and, unlike most “spy writers”, has a wide appreciation of world politics and events. Most writers of “spy fiction” have at best a cartoon view of the world. Ian Fleming. Alastair Maclean. Frederick Forsyth. Others. I regret that I missed out on a lecture that Le Carre/Cornwell gave in or about 1981 at the G.B.-U.S.S.R. Association in Grosvenor Place, London.
The G.B.-U.S.S.R. Association, to which I belonged at the time, was an entity founded in 1958 and funded mainly by the Foreign Office (later, Foreign and Commonwealth Office). It had its funding radically cut in the 1990s and was split into parts after the Soviet Union ceased to exist. It even sold its library (a few volumes from which I was able to buy, though I came late to the party, having been overseas). It had by then moved from its fine building at the rear of Buckingham Palace to a soulless office tower in Vauxhall. The FCO finally cut off funds from its successor-entities in 2002.
Le Carre’s lecture was, I was told, one of the best talks ever given at the Association.
Having said the above, merely being a fine writer does not bestow infallibility. I doubt that there has ever been a better travel writer than Jan Morris:
yet Morris is in some respects also very silly indeed, judging purely from the political point of view (e.g. Morris espousing faux Welsh nationalism on the strength of having been born half-Welsh and having resided for a number of decades in Wales).
I have to say that I am disappointed to see that Le Carre/Cornwell, in that Guardian transcript, said that he was a Remainer and a European, as if the EU equates to Europe. That oft-seen conflation. No. I myself am a European, a white Northern European, but have always, on balance, opposed the EU. I am ethnically and culturally European. That is what matters.
One apparent fact given by Le Carre/Cornwell in the Guardian transcript did, as people now say, “surprise but not shock” me: it seems that Olof Palme was once an “intern” at Swedish Intelligence. I did not know that. His Wikipedia entry does not mention it (neither does it mention Palme’s quite long-running secret affair with the American actress Shirley MacLaine; Wikipedia is likewise not infallible):
What I know about Swedish intelligence and security would scarcely fill the back of a postcard, but I see that their security service has its own jaunty website:
Olof Palme always struck me as rather sinister. His assassination was never publicly solved, though two separate suspects were arrested, one eventually emigrating to the USA and the other being convicted of the assassination, but released on appeal two years later.
Admittedly, Swedish prisons are not usually like that. The original Swedish-language Girl with the Dragon Tattoo lost me at one point, when the investigative journalist seems to be in some kind of hostel or inexpensive hotel reception; it took me another viewing to understand that that was a Swedish prison!
Collapse of smug, virtue-signalling party...
I have no present plans to return to twitter. And I shan't monitor responses to these two tweets. But I wanted to say something for those who have kindly supported my work for the last three and a half years.
I favoured Leave from the start (meaning from a while before the 2016 Referendum), but the process was royally mishandled by idiots such as Francis Maude (also a Common Purpose member, fyi), in fact so badly handled that I wonder(ed) whether that was not deliberate. Well, here we are, about to “leave”, though for now only on paper.
I wonder what kind of celebrations there will be. Not many and rather muted, I suspect. I am guessing that any “celebrations” will be rather squalid and sad, like New Year’s Eve used to be about 30 years ago in London, the Trafalgar Square fountains and statues boarded-up to protect them from drunken “revellers” (vandals and twerps, beer cans in hand, and with nowhere better to go).
The public mood is very downbeat, in my opinion: not sorry to be “leaving”, exactly; not scared either, but unenthusiastic, almost sullen.
As for Boris-idiot, looking at the first couple of months of his majority-government, my impression is that the man himself still looks like someone who, against the odds, has won the lottery, or inherited a great estate, and is not quite sure how to handle his unmerited good fortune.
Freedom of expression
Free speech (etc) continues to be attacked. Alastair Stewart of all people, who started political life as a “left-wing Communist” in the National Union of Students before getting into the absurdly well-paid newsreading line and becoming “mainstream”, has been sacked because a black “activist” and “lobbyist” from East London was too dim to understand a few lines of Shakespeare!
Katie Hopkins, meanwhile, has been “suspended” from Twitter (that’s what they called it when I was in reality expelled from Twitter in 2018…). She was the latest target of an unholy alliance of Jew-Zionists, Muslims and pseudo-socialist “anti-fascist” idiots, who all applaud the fact that a quasi-monopolistic finance-capitalist enterprise like Twitter can suddenly —and without being in any way accountable— “decide” to “de-platform” anyone it (i.e. its executives, or even minor office bods) consider to be “racist” etc.
Here below, NHS psychiatrist Tim G. Stevens, who tweets negatively about me from time to time, betrays a basically pedestrian mind. Twitter, says he, is a “private” company (let’s leave the exact terminology aside) and so can ban whomsoever it chooses.
Twitter, a private company, is entitled to ban whomever it chooses.
Governments, at least in democracies like our own, aren’t.
In fact, it is wholly inadequate to say that huge transnational organizations such as Twitter, which hold such an overwhelmingly large market share that they are quasi-monopolies, are simply “private”, or non-State, actors and so beyond the reach of potential civil rights legislation (the type of legislation which does not as yet exist but should exist).
The actor Laurence Fox has been attacked recently for daring to question “woke” nonsense:
When Laurence Fox meets Bonnie Greer again, he should ask her why it is, in what many call “racist” Britain, that a black American woman with no educational background (she started to read Law in Chicago but dropped out), and who has mainly been engaged in writing the kind of subsidized theatrical works that have an audience of 2.5 people, was appointed to the Board of Trustees of the British Museum. She even became Deputy Chair for a while!
When I had a Twitter account, Bonnie Greer joined a host of System-approved msm drones, talking heads, journalists and other scribblers, MPs etc, in blocking my tweets (nb. not my tweets to them or even about them, but on general topics).
So took some kind of degree and then taught in a secondary school for 5 years (1969-1974). Volunteered with Citizen’s Advice, sat as a lay magistrate in Surrey, sat on a tribunal for a while. Climbed up the Conservative Party organization in the 1980s/1990s and was elevated as a life peer in 1996. Apparently (looking at Wikipedia) not a mother, and married to a barrister who took silk and is, or was, a Deputy High Court judge; she herself appears to have worked full-time for 5 years only, on the face of it.
Now, this rather obscure lady remains a member of the Lords, has held ministerial positions, and has only to sign-in for 20 mins at the Lords to receive her £310 per day tax-free stipend, though I doubt that she is in need of the money.
I know almost nothing about this lady, so will not criticize her, but it seems to me that far too many MPs, as well as peers, have nothing very special to offer.
