Saturday quiz

This week brings a narrow victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 5/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, 3, and 8.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-13118755/Fertility-rate-plunges-time-low.html

Women are having fewer children than ever before, official figures revealed today. 

Office for National Statistics data shows the fertility rate โ€” the average number of children a woman has โ€” in England and Wales slumped to 1.49 in 2022. 

It marks the lowest figure since records began in 1938, laying bare the reality of the ongoing baby bust that threatens to cripple the economy. 

Not a single one of the 330-plus authorities in both countries has a fertility rate that is above ‘replacement level’, according to MailOnline analysis.

[Daily Mail]

When one considers that (overall) the blacks and browns etc are having children, the birthrate among white people (“the people formerly known as British”) is seen more clearly as being at a rock-bottom level.

More from the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13119039/MP-Bob-Stewart-conviction-racially-aggravated-offence-quashed.html

An MP has had his conviction for racially aggravated offense quashed after he told an activist to ‘go back to Bahrain.’

Bob Stewart, MP for Beckenham in south-east London, made the remark towards activist Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei during a row outside the Foreign Office’s Lancaster House on December 14 2022. 

Last November, Mr Stewart was convicted for a racially aggravated public order offence and was fined ยฃ600. Following the conviction, Mr Stewart lost the Tory whip and has since sat in the House of Commons as an independent. 

Now, following an appeal, his conviction has been overturned today at Southwark Crown Court.”

[Daily Mail]

One has to wonder how absolutely stupid are the police and Crown Prosecution Service that this was ever brought to a trial. Mad.

Incidentally, note that the Daily Mail wannabee “journalist” scribbler spells “offence” as “offense“, American-style, in the first line. Newspapers have declined in every way since the 1970s.

As for my own conviction under the very stupid Communications Act 2003, s.127 (trial was on 17 November 2023), I am due to be sentenced in a few weeks’ time. After that, I shall have 3 weeks in which to decide whether to appeal to the Crown Court.

Britain Occupied territory

For me, what is most alarming is that dim people like Hoyle can get to some of the highest-status positions in our country and society.

At least he is an animal-lover in his private life. I can approve of that.

Paul Golding/Britain First is only partly correct. While Islamism is a threat to the UK, so is Jew-Zionism, which is far more embedded in the power structure. Paul Golding always attacks the one but not the other, which may be one reason why Britain First has a poor electoral record; most recently, 1.6% at the Wellingborough by-election, only 8th out of 11 candidates.

At Wellingborough, Britain First’s 8th-placed position came after Labour, Conservative, Reform, LibDems, an Independent, Greens, and another Independent, only beating the Monster Raving Loony and two more Independents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellingborough_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

Only one caveat: I do not know whether those numbers are inflation-adjusted.

By sending long-range “Taurus” cruise missiles to Ukraine, they will make Germany part of the Ukrainian conflict, German politician Sara Wagenknecht told the German media.

“You really think that if we deliver more weapons, the Ukrainians will be able to drive the Russians out of Crimea? Do you think Russia, a nuclear power, will allow that? If we bring war to Russia with German weapons, then we will also bring war to Germany,” she said.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahra_Wagenknecht. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahra_Wagenknecht#Refugee_policy. Interesting.

Sara Wagenknecht only finished her secondary education in 1988, a year before the collapse of the DDR (and, incidentally, the same year in which I myself saw the country, though only briefly), so she could not have been a member of the Aufklรคrung (the foreign intelligence component of the State Security apparat or “Stasi“). Had she been older, one might wonder.

Lee Anderson, and Ashfield (Derbyshire)

The maverick MP has been suspended from being under the Conservative Party whip.

Naturally, I do not agree with his statement that London is “run by Muslims”. Sadiq Khan is from a Muslim background, but has been pretty much in the Jew-Zionist pocket for many years.

It would be more accurate to characterize Sadiq Khan as “anti-white”.

As to Anderson himself, I suggest that he is trying to bolster his position vis a vis the General Election expected later this year.

Until 2019, Ashfield had always been won by Labour since its inception in 1955, with one closely-run by-electoral exception in 1977. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashfield_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s. “New Labour” and Gloria de Piero changed all that.

David Marquand, a former MP for Ashfield (1966-1977; he is still alive, at 89): “Originally a tentative supporter of Blair’s New Labour, he has since become a trenchant critic, arguing that “New Labour has ‘modernised’ the social-democratic tradition out of all recognition”, even while retaining the over-centralisation and disdain for the radical intelligentsia of the old “Labourite” tradition.” [Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Marquand.

Marquand defected to the SDP and then was honourable enough to step down as MP, not contesting the by-election.

In fact, Marquand was himself rather intellectual:

Marquand addressed Britain’s relative economic decline in The Unprincipled Society (1988) and The New Reckoning (1997). He argued that this decline was caused by Britain’s failure to become a developmental state like France, Germany and Japan. In those countries state intervention had encouraged industrial development and had facilitated the necessary adjustments to competition. Britain, however, was wedded to an economic liberalism which prevented the state from undertaking the necessary measures to meet the country’s developmental needs.[7] In The New Reckoning Marquand claimed: “The economies that have succeeded more spectacularly have been those fostered by developmental states, where public power, acting in concert with private interest, has induced market forces to flow in the desired direction”.[8]” [Wikipedia].

In fact, Ashfield is not quite as “safe Labour” as the history might suggest superficially. Gloria de Piero won in 2010 by a majority of under half a point (0.4%, 192 votes) from a LibDem.

While de Piero’s majority increased in 2015 (as the LibDems imploded), in 2017 she beat the Conservative candidate by less than one point (0.9%, 441 votes). An Ashfield Independent came third with over 9% of the vote.

In 2019, Lee Anderson won convincingly: 39.3% of the vote, followed in second (27.6%) by another “Ashfield Independent”, Jason Zadrozny [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Zadrozny], who has had a chequered political and personal history. In third place came Labour, with only 24.4%.

Zadrozny is going to contest the seat at GE 2024.

So far, apart from Anderson (who may or may not be standing as Conservative Party candidate, depending on whether he gets back the Conservative whip), only the Ashfield Independent and Reform UK are presently known to be likely to stand at GE 2024, but a full field is almost guaranteed. There may be a dozen or more candidates.

At first, I thought that Anderson could probably be written off as post-GE 2024 MP, but now am not so sure. He has now (whether by design or not) distanced himself from the unpopular Conservative leadership —and possibly from the equally-unpopular Conservative Party— is anti-EU, anti-migration invasion etc, and is now known nationwide. He must have at least a chance of retaining his seat. If he does, and if he also retains it as a “Conservative” MP, he might be one of 100 or even as few as 50 such MPs. Who knows what might then happen?

[Update, 13 October 2024: In the end, what happened at GE 2024 was that Lee Anderson stood as Reform UK candidate, and won handsomely with 42.8% of the vote. He is thus now one of 5 Reform UK MPs. The Labour candidate came a poor second with 29%; third place, with 15.7%, went to that Independent, Zadrozny, who faces yet another Crown Court trial soon, in February 2025: numerous charges of fraud and income tax evasion, as well as possession of cocaine): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashfield_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s].

Saturday quiz

Well, an unusual week, in that I was outscored by political journalist John Rentoul, who managed 6/10; I only got 5/10. I nearly guessed the answer to question 1, but could not be sure, and also came close on question 7. As it was, I only knew for sure the answers to questions 2, 3, 6, 8, and 9.

Exactly so. Labour actually offers nothing (except, possibly, arguably, tighter administration) that is not offered or done by the present “Conservative” misgovernment. Having said that, the voters plainly wish to punish the Government for being so weak and, indeed, hopeless.

It was surprising to see that just over a third of the Kingswood voters who voted, still voted Con, albeit that the turnout was well under 40% (so only about 10% or so of all eligible voters voted Con), but that may indicate that in a general election, the Con vote in that constituency (were it not being abolished) would be nearer to 20% or 25%, on a putative turnout of about 70%. However, that would still be not enough to win (were the seat to still exist at GE 2024).

All speculation, of course…

According to the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] cabal (on its website), “lord” Ian Austin, the notorious Israel-lobby and Jewish-lobby puppet who was once an MP, and who is one of the “Patrons” of the “CAA”, actually wrote to the Director of Public Prosecutions in 2022 demanding that I be prosecuted for expressing my views on this blog.

See https://antisemitism.org/former-barrister-ian-millard-found-guilty-of-five-communications-offences-after-seven-years-of-action-by-caa/.

Regular readers of the blog will know that I was tried last November, found guilty on all 5 counts, and will be sentenced next month. Freedom of expression is almost dead, and a large part of the reason for that is the existence of the Jew-Zionist lobby.

Austin is very odd. He once tweeted that pornography involving bestiality should be decriminalized, a view echoed by the Jewish girl at the centre of the campaign against Dr. David Miller of Bristol University. Those tweets were later deleted. At the same time, Austin thinks that “holocaust” “denial” should be criminalized!

Austin’s quite long Wikipedia entry says nothing at all about his personal life.

Austin, as MP, was also a hard-core expenses cheat. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Austin#Expenses

You can bet that Austin makes sure to “sign on” at the House of Lords every sitting day, in order to get his c.ยฃ350 a day taxfree cash “allowance” and other freebies.

I wonder how many other lucrative part-time jobs (in the argot of today, “side-hustles”) Austin has. That housing chairmanship was almost certainly only one of several.

Austin almost personifies the corrupt pro-Israel political system of the UK today, as well as Starmer-Labour.

Lack of funding is part of that, but I doubt that the tweeter (obviously Indian) would agree that another large part of the problem is the half-million to a million immigrants of various kinds every single year.

Yes, a tiny percentage of the migration influx consists of doctors and nurses, but the other 99.9% are those who will not work in the NHS but will use its services.

Then factor in the disastrous “lockdowns” and/or restricted service throughout 2020, 2021, and 2022.

Then factor in the other recent developments: the strikes in the NHS, and the explosion of part-time working by GPs and the better-paid clinical staff generally, and also the phenomenon of medical students getting trained here in the UK, mainly at UK taxpayers’ expense (despite student loans), then emigrating to countries such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc for more money and a better lifestyle. They should have to work in the NHS for 5-10 years after qualification and training.

Hereโ€™s a chart I tweeted this week which went viral on social media. It shows rates of home ownership in Britain by age, from 1960 through to today. Take a look…

[Home ownership rates by age. Source: Sunday Times]

Highlighting the fact mass immigration is directly fuelling our housing crisis clashes with the eliteโ€™s โ€œluxury beliefsโ€. Routinely, they demand more and more immigrants, looser and looser borders, to project their liberal beliefs to other elites all the while knowing they and their families will never be the ones to have to compete with immigrants and newcomers for a roof above their heads.”

As Andrew Neil said in response: โ€œAnd the Tories wonder why young folks wonโ€™t vote for themโ€. Indeed. At the looming general election just 8% of Zoomers from Generation-Z plan to vote Conservative.

This is why, last weekend, housing secretary Michael Gove went further, touring media in Westminster to warn if young British people and families remain unable to get on the housing ladder โ€˜they will abandon democracyโ€™.

Our day in the sun may be nearer than we ourselves, as social nationalists, realize.

Look at recent by-elections. Only a third of voters are even bothering to vote. They despise the System parties and refuse to validate those “elected”, who have no real legitimacy.

By that date (2036), UK society will have either collapsed into civil war or chaos, or be very close to that point.

Only social nationalism can save Britain; and, frankly, even that will be a struggle. Things are very bad and, equally important, getting worse, and rapidly.

Scholz blocked the candidacy of Ursula von der Leyen for the post of NATO Secretary General, – Welt. According to the publication, there were two reasons for this:

Scholz considers the position of NATO Secretary General too important to give it to a Christian Democrat from Germany (opposition to Scholzโ€™s party).

Scholz considers Ursula von der Leyenโ€™s attitude towards Russia too critical.

Die Welt is a heavyweight German conservative newspaper. Its business-oriented attitudes make it interesting that, recently, its coverage has mellowed towards Russia. The sanctions on Russia, and the general hostility to Russia from such as Ursula von der Leyen harm, not Russia, but Germany itself (and the rest of the EU).

Ursula von der Leyen always strikes me as —in the American phrase— “nutty”— excessively driven, and even mentally-ill. Another similar specimen is Christine Lagarde. NWO insiders.

It looks like Scholz and other major political players in Germany are waking up to the fact of the inevitable Russian victory in Ukraine, certainly in Eastern Ukraine. Realpolitik.

Unsurprising, given that Milei is a populist. However, this may be shadow boxing.

The UK now has not the power and global reach to defend the islands, certainly not to retake them after an invasion, as happened in 1982.

However, by the same token it may well be that the Argentine government does not today have the ability to launch such an invasion in the first place; I am unsure.

In the unlikely event that Russia starts to be pushed back significantly on the battlefield because of such weapons given to the Kiev regime, the escalation might result in Russia using ever-heavier missiles and bombs, even tactical nuclear weapons. Kiev could be completely flattened

There must be a peace process that leaves Russia with, at minimum, Crimea, the Donetsk region, and the Lugansk region, and at least much of the Azov Sea and Black Sea littoral.

That relates to the Russian victory in the devastated city of Avdeevka (“Avdiivka” in Ukrainian). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avdiivka. Victory was declared by the Russian side only today. The Kiev-regime forces not killed or captured have withdrawn in disarray.

[Avdeevka/Avdiivka before the present war]

War is hell. Avdeevka in that photo looks (i.e. looked, before the war) reasonably decent for a once-Soviet industrial town.

Interesting, if true. A few thoughts come to my mind. Firstly, what conceivable British interest was being served here? None, in my view. As to the alleged MI6/SIS officer, he seems to be a good listener (which must be part of his job) and is evidently trying to be non-committal yet friendly (also part of his job, I presume). Other than that, hard to say much about him. Maybe privately-educated but trying to flatten the accent (like the present Prince of Wales and his brother)? Maybe, maybe not. A suitably “grey” person…

Navalny and his group were playing for high stakes. They lost.

The msm in the EU, UK, USA etc all show the masses a series of pictures (on TV, in the Press) etc; metaphorical pictures; shadows on the wall of the cave, if you like. “Ukraine”, “Navalny”, “Black Lives Matter”, “Covid”, “far right extremism”, “Russia about to attack Western Europe”. Mostly lies, or the truth bent so far out of shape that it becomes a lie.

If that is so, the withdrawal order was just a figleaf to cover what was really an uncontrolled flight by the Ukrainian front-line forces.

Exclusive: BBC staff are being told not to hire candidates who are โ€œdismissiveโ€ of diversity and inclusion. A recruitment policy document says that applicants should be asked to โ€œwhat opportunities do you see for you to promote, celebrate or encourage diversity and inclusion in your role?โ€

The guidelines tell recruiters โ€œdonโ€™t hire; [candidates who are] unsuited to the organisationโ€ if they are โ€œdismissive or derisory of diversity and inclusion and surrounding topicsโ€.

Managers are also directed not to offer jobs to candidates if they show a โ€œlack of interest in learning more where no evidence of education and understanding of diversity and inclusion was given”.

Commenting on the recruitment guidelines, a BBC source said: โ€œThe BBC is not a welcoming place for those with conservative opinions. Management talks about diversity, without embracing diversity of thought.

The place that I have given years of my working life, and that I sincerely cherish, currently feels captured by Left-wing activists and is unable to deliver on our core principle of impartiality.โ€

โ€œHiring on the basis of adherence to diversity and inclusion ideology excludes most conservative-minded people, and indeed much of the population.โ€

[Steven Edginton, Daily Telegraph].

The BBC, even more than other msm, is a nest of treachery and evil, as shown by its propaganda output during the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic.

I was just thinking, “just like the Soviet system of having at least one ‘politichesky rukovoditel‘ (political director, executive, supervisor, or commissar) attached to each ship or Army formation, and assisted by ‘sekretnye sotrudniki’ or ‘stukachi‘ (‘secret co-workers’ or ‘informers’).”

So it seems that the Royal Navy probably has far more of those officers than it has ships: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Navy.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Britain is still being invaded daily…

Sorry to see that notice. I was a member of Lincoln’s Inn from 1986 until I was (wrongfully and unlawfully) disbarred in 2016, at which point my membership of the Inn was, effectively, terminated automatically.

As a very frequent user of Lincoln’s Inn Library, I knew Catherine for many years (1988 to about 2002). She was from the North (maybe North East) of England, from a family in a coal-mining community. Beyond that, I knew little of her personal life, though I believe that she got married at some point after having joined Lincoln’s Inn (and the photograph in that tweet, showing a ring, would seem to support that).

A nice person.

[The Library, Lincoln’s Inn, London]

Mortality. It comes to us all. Catherine, I now see, was actually 6 years younger than me. It reminds us that we must stand up for truth and justice etc while we live, no matter what challenges the forces of Evil array against us.

Quite a few people I have known in my life have died now, many of whom were younger than me. I have mentioned a few on the blog: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2021/05/20/diary-blog-20-may-2021/, and

Well, looked at from an ethics-free view (and/or from the Israeli point of view), that operation has the hallmarks of skill and cunning. Equally obviously, to kill patients prostrate in a hospital (one photo shows a single bullet-hole in the centre of a hospital pillow, with blood around it) is pretty abhorrent and, indeed, very wicked, something one would associate with the worst criminals and terrorists.

Frederick Forsyth was or is very pro-Israeli. I saw something from him once to the effect that terrorists who then gain state power (as happened in Israel/Palestine when the various Jew-Zionist terrorists of the Irgun, Palmach, Stern Gang /”Lehi” etc became part of the Israeli power structure) can leave their terrorism behind and become “normal” political leaders of “normal” states.

Forsyth’s view may have had its arguments when he was most fervently pro-Israel, in the 1960s, 1970s, but now the facts have changed or become more evident: Israel’s massacres of Arab civilians every few years, and of course the truth coming out more in the West about the ethnic cleansing (mass murder, and theft of land) carried out by the Jews in Israel/Palestine from 1948 to the present day.

Forsyth himself, who always strikes me as rather dim, at least politically, was cheated out of much of his invested money by a Jew he trusted (“Roger” Something), insult then being added to injury by the said Jew receiving a mere suspended sentence for the embezzlement of millions of pounds. That episode is, incidentally, absent from Wikipedia. “They” seem to have been “editing” (sabotaging) again…

Final word

Regular readers will be aware that I am to be sentenced tomorrow for allegedly having posted “grossly offensive” (anti-Jew-Zionist) material on 5 out of some 1,700 blog posts published since this blog started in late 2016.

It may be that part of the sentence will include a restriction on the publication of the blog. If so, the restriction might last for a year. We shall see.

Freedom of expression on political, social and even historical topics is as good as dead in the UK, and those responsible are, for the most part, those who may well be called “the usual suspects”.

I hope to resume blogging soon, but if that proves not to be the case, I wish all well-intentioned readers well, and hope to resume transmission in due course.

I would not usually repost material from someone such as Myerson, but needs must.

The attitude of that Special Constable is not confined to the ranks of the “Specials”, or the “PCSO” joke police “co-workers”. I have had considerable trouble myself over the past decade with “real” police who, however, often do not actually know the law they purport to be laying down, and/or who invent their own version of the law and even, worse, have insisted to me that their cartoon version of the law is correct.

Over-estimation of their own lawful powers, unwillingness to listen to reason or the truth, and an attitude that they know best (they don’t). That is even before we get into the suborning of the UK police (sometimes up to “Police and Crime Commissioner” level) by Jew-Zionist cabals.

Look at what happened during the 2020-2022 panicdemic/scamdemic. Policemen, right up to Chief Constable level, demanding to know what shoppers had just bought in supermarkets so that they, the plods, could “decide”, in their “wisdom”, whether said shopping was “reasonable”.

Then we had police shouting from drones, at elderly couples walking on moors or hills, that they should go home, and sole campers or couples arrested at the behest of panicked and stupid farmers or others. All because of “Covid”, which in reality was killing hardly anyone. A stampede of fear-driven stupidity.

All too many people gave in to that kind of semi-lawless bullying by the police and those directing them.

Likewise, we now see that a considerable amount of police time is wasted —at the behest of “them” (((the usual suspects)))— on snooping upon blogs such as this, or upon social media, instead of the police doing their proper job.

Zelensky proposed to Germany: Instead of refugees , give us money “

The Ukrainian army has 880,000 people. And when we say that the whole world financially supports Ukraine, I would like to draw attention to where exactly the largest part of this money remains.

Thanks to Germany for allocating money to Ukrainian refugees, but it is necessary for Berlin to transfer this money to the budget of Ukraine, and Kyiv itself will distribute it to Ukrainians ,” said President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ha ha! As con-men go, Zelensky is not very convincing.

Today’s Russia, even with all its flaws, is not the Soviet Union. Hungary can join with Russia freely in creating a new European axis.

The conflict in Ukraine began at the NATO summit in 2008. It was then that the decision was made for Kyiv to join NATO. This was a tragic mistake, said the former president of the Czech Republic Vaclav Klaus.

He noted that he tried to oppose such a decision, but this country was “pushed by the USA and Great Britain, contrary to the position of most participating countries“.

I sincerely hope that he does not play that card. Let the Con Party crash and burn, after which fake “Labour” will only create chaos and unrest. Then social-nationalism can arise.

Sam Melia

https://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/crime/pudsey-4490476

A far-right activist who was caught with a library of online stickers telling non-white people to “go back” has been found guilty of inciting racial hatred.

The jury at Leeds Crown Court returned a verdict this afternoon after spending less than a day deliberating the case of Sam Melia.

The 34-year-old was on trial following a raid at his Pudsey home on Town Street in April 2021 in which police uncovered a catalogue of downloadable stickers which were โ€œintended to stir up racial hatredโ€ and encouraged racially-aggravated criminal damage. They also found a poster of Adolf Hitler on his wall and a book by the infamous British fascist, Oswald Mosley.

[Yorkshire Evening Post]

There was a time in England, not so very long ago, when people had real freedom of expression. Even in the 1970s, when free speech had already been cut back, it still existed to an extent unthinkable in the England of 2024, in which the “woke” or “politically correct” rule almost supreme, and in which the malicious and fanatical Jew-Zionists “monitor” anything British people say or write, lest it might be —or can be be contrived to look— “grossly offensive” (to “them”).

The great British jury has also fallen by the wayside, and now almost inevitably finds anyone accused of “inciting racial hatred” guilty, no matter how flimsy the evidence. Rubber-stamp juries. I have no idea whether that was the case in respect of the Sam Melia trial. I know only what has been in the Press over the past day or two.

Not only that. Anyone found with such innocuous things as “racist” stickers may get, not even months but years of incarceration, in an England where real crime, even violent crime, is often scarcely punished by the courts.

Look at that Yorkshire Evening Post report. Things actually perfectly lawful (having a poster of Hitler on the wall at home, owning a book by a long-dead British politician) added to the mix in a “nudge-nudge, wink-wink” way…

I do not know Sam Melia, only of him, and only slightly even on that basis, but I very much regret that he has been found guilty. My thoughts are with him, and with his wife, the socio-political activist Laura Towler.

Ukraine’s (Kiev regime’s) only hope in this war is to bring in NATO on the Kiev-regime side; to widen the conflict. Russia has not taken the bait so far, but the Zelensky regime keeps pushing, keeps prodding, in the hope of provoking a massive Russian response which might draw NATO into the war directly. If that were to happen though, it would be but a short step to a world war.

…and to the Jewish/Zionist lobby in the UK, USA, France etc.

Yes. A toad. Indeed, a “slithey tove“, it might be said…

Young and his controlled opposition friends have never said one word in defence of my supposed rights to freedom of expression.

Tell me about it…I myself face a sentencing court next week, after my conviction for having published a few supposedly “grossly offensive” comments, cartoons etc on this blog.

Many people kid themselves that we live in a somehow “free” country, when what it really is, or has become, is an “iron fist in velvet glove” dictatorship. Well-disguised at times, yes, and somewhat shambolic too, which gives the appearance of laxity (and so “liberty”), at times, but still a repressive dictatorship under (((the usual))) influence; and it is getting worse almost daily.

The usual “controlled opposition” grifters, such as Toby Young, can be disregarded as a total waste of space.

While I’ve no time for #PA, this has to be said: Sam Melia is dragged through the courts and portrayed as a racist monster over stickers with messages such as “White Lives Matter”, which graced a few hundred lampposts.

Meanwhile, Tommy Robinson is allowed to post blatant incitement and heavy-duty ‘Islamiphobia’ like this to a gigantic audience.

I have always believed that the Muslim #grooming gangs – and the native traitors who facilitated them – should be tried and, if convicted, executed. But to use their crimes to incite generic hatred of an entire community is nothing more or less than conditioning for war against Iran – a war for Israel, without a shred of legitimate British interest.

Make no mistake, this is the UK deep state giving an asset free rein to prod the herd to war.

Griffin is, of course, correct.

All the same, we must be clear from where the poisonous repression is coming. Not from, at root, the police, MI5, the CPS, but from the “special-interest cabals” behind them…

David Mundell says Scotland Office was not consulted about Moneโ€™s 2015 appointment.

David Cameron breached โ€œproper processโ€ when he appointed Michelle Mone to the House of Lords in 2015, David Mundell, who was the secretary for Scotland at the time, has said.

Ms Mone is not a successful entrepreneur, she is a small-time businesswoman with a PR exposure far in excess of any actual success,โ€ Anderson wrote. โ€œAwarding her a peerage for a very mediocre business performance brings the awarding of titles into disrepute by rewarding failure.” [a well-informed Glasgow business leader wrote— to Cameron privately— at the time].

[The Guardian]

I blogged about Mone’s fakery at the time. Like so many in both the Commons and the Lords, she was always a fake.

Forests with two or three tree species are on average 35% more resilient to storms than forests with only one species, simulations created by researchers found. The type of trees also matters โ€“ forestry plantations are typically made up of fast-growing tall trees such as conifers, but they are more vulnerable to high winds than slower-growing hardwood species such as oak.

Tice is hopeless. It is a measure of how unpopular the present misgovernment is, and how discontented are many of the voters, that Reform UK, even under Tice, even though it is not social-national, is apparently now on 13%, acc. to opinion polling.

Whether that will cut much ice at GE 2024 remains to be seen. We have, in a sense, been here before, with both UKIP and Brexit Party (both Farage vehicles, as is Reform UK). The difference, maybe, is in the degree of desperation felt by the voters.

When the voters feel real desperation, and in sufficient numbers, they may be ready, finally, to turn to real social-nationalism.

[the 20th Century’s Man of Destiny. 1889-1945]

“...the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not“…

Those latest polling figures are striking all the same. They might translate, at GE 2024, to a Labour majority of 420, with the “Conservatives” left as a rump of 35 MPs.

South Essex fraudster/”grifter” “Jack Monroe”.

Well-meaning people ripped off by a dishonest and indeed evil woman.

It is depressing, though, to observe how many of the said idiots are unwilling to see the truth even when it is presented, unambiguously and with irrefutable supporting evidence, to them… a bit like the people in the 1930s, 1940s, even up to the 1980s, who sincerely believed both in Marxism-Leninism and in the idea that the Soviet Union was a wonderful society, maybe with a few flaws here and there. I must have met hundreds like that.

Gaza (and the Jew-Zionist quasi-genocidal devastation there) is a very important issue but, as an acerbic Dutch lady once told me, about 42 years ago, “the shirt is closer than the skirt” (apparently an old Dutch proverb akin to “blood is thicker than water”). First things first. This country is now in a truly terrible mess. Our own people have needs that are not being addressed, still less satisfied. No wonder so many people say that they are “politically homeless”, and are unwilling to vote for any System party.

So it seems that the winds are set fair for a second Trump presidential term.

Oh, when will Britain just grow up? We have no money, yet we spend billions on arming Ukraine in a dubious war in which we have no national interest. We cannot control the beaches on our southern shores, on which strangers land almost daily, but we tail along behind the Americans in the pretence that we can control the Red Sea as we seek (as far as I can grasp) to get entangled in yet another war in the Middle East. Haven’t we had enough of these stupid brawls?

We spend decades failing to do justice to wronged postmasters. We cannot keep order in our pothole-peppered streets. Our children can’t read or write. Our universities, when they are not imposing mad speech codes on students and teachers, sell themselves to the highest bidder to ensure they can pay their vice-chancellors’ enormous salaries.

We have created a society in which working hard is probably the worst possible route to riches. If you want to be comfortably off (and perhaps get a decoration or a peerage too), go and strip some assets, or sell dodgy PPE to the NHS, or some such.

[Peter Hitchens, in the Mail on Sunday]

Also, from the same Peter Hitchens column:

Might I too be sanctioned for saying the ‘wrong’ thing?”  

At some point I shall write at more length about the High Court’s failure last week to come to the aid of Graham Phillips, the unlovable video blogger sanctioned by the Foreign Office.

The case is not about Mr Phillips. It is about free speech, and whether the Government can punish people for exercising it.

I might say I was (in the judge’s words) ‘an objective independent and fair-minded journalist’ who had happened to say things that ‘did not align’ with UK Government policy. But how would I prove it? The Government would be its own prosecution, judge and jury, and my only recourse would be to take the matter before someone, well, like Mr Justice Johnson. Be warned. These are dark times for dissent.”

Don’t I know it! Sad to say, the likes of Peter Hitchens, Toby Young, Farage, the “Free Speech Union” etc have not mentioned my “case” once. Disbarred (wrongfully and unlawfully, which the Bar Standards Board itself accepts was the case) in 2016, and now facing court sentence (in a few weeks’ time) for having allegedly posted a few home truths about the Jew-Zionists in the UK and Israel/Palestine.

People might argue that the apparent lack of interest (or is it out of fear of the Jewish lobby?) on the part of Hitchens (himself of course part-Jew), Toby Young (uncertain) etc is because I am not sufficiently well-known (and so of too little importance) for those puffed-up characters to take an interest in how my rights to freedom of expression are being trashed.

Well, if so, that scarcely chimes with the assertion of the malicious Jewish or Jew-Zionist cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] itself, on their own website and Twitter/X account, to the effect that it has taken them seven years of effort to finally have the (corrupt and/or suborned) police and Crown Prosecution Service get me into court (magistrates’ court) and have me tried and convicted of having posted supposedly “grossly offensive” remarks, cartoons etc about Jews or Jew-Zionists on my blog (those remarks and cartoons being only a small part of the allegedly posted blog posts, and those five blog posts only 5 of over 1,700 posted since this blog started to operate in late 2016, over seven years ago).

As to my case itself, anyone interested might like to know that, though I am inclined to appeal the conviction (the trial was a couple of months ago), I shall only decide on that after the sentencing hearing.

If I do appeal, the appeal would be, in effect, a complete retrial, but this time in the Crown Court. There does exist another route of appeal, by “case stated” to the Divisional Court (i.e. High Court) on point of law, but I should probably take the more usual route if I do appeal, i.e. via the Crown Court. If that happens, the appeal might not be heard until late 2024, or even on some date in 2025.

“They”, meaning (((they))), have thoroughly infiltrated the UK mass media, publishing etc over the past 75+ years. That applies even more to anything published about the Second World War, “holocaust” etc.

Ha ha. The Financial Times has lost all credibility in recent years, and politically is on or about the same level as someone such as Paul Mason. Pathetic.

Yemeni Houtis maintain offensive capabilities despite US bombing US and British forces in the Red Sea struck 30 targets of Yemen’s Houthis.

It is stated that โ€œabout 90 percent of targets were damaged or destroyed.โ€ Lieutenant General Douglas Sims even states that “the strikes achieved their goal of crippling the Houthis’ ability to conduct sophisticated drone and missile attacks.”

At the same time, two American officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The New York Times that even after massive bombing, the Houthis retain โ€œthree-quarters of their offensive capabilities.โ€

โ€œLocating Houthi targets has proven more difficult than expected,โ€ as, according to the officials, โ€œUS and other Western intelligence agencies have not spent significant time or resources in recent years collecting data on the locations of Houthi air defenses, command centers, ammunition depots, as well as facilities for the storage and production of drones and missiles.โ€ Currently, the Pentagon is forced to conduct an urgent analysis of the situation and literally in real time assign targets for troops to strike.

The USA has a short collective memory. “What goes around comes around”…

You cannot compare the Israeli-Jew mindset with that of nominally Christian countries, or even that of the Soviet Union under Stalin; you have to revisit the Old Testament, in which the ancient Israelites wiped whole tribes and nations off the map.

So in just over three months, the Israeli war machine has killed or injured over 84,000 people, the vast majority civilians. It is worth remembering, also, that about half of those killed or injured have been under 18 years of age, and about half of those under 12 years of age. Israeli war crimes.

Those supporting those war crimes, and who are resident in the UK, France, USA, are also guilty.

I certainly disagree with the overall state of society in Russia (as well as in the UK and Western Europe, let alone USA etc), but the fact remains that Putin “bestrides the narrow world like a colossus” when compared to political pygmies such as Sunak, Starmer, Macron etc, and of course poor old dementia sufferer Biden.

If you would not have sympathy for predators and pillagers who get hurt trying to break into and enter your individual home, why would you sympathize with predators and pillagers trying to break into our collective home— “this England“?

Gonzalo Liraโ€™s last public statement is chilling. He knew that if arrested, he would die in a Ukrainian prison. He pleaded for public outcry to put pressure on the U.S. State Department to do what it ordinarily does for American citizens trapped in these circumstances. But the outcry never came. The mainstream media ignored his story. So State Department officials were free to ignore the plight of a journalist who had criticized them. Gonzalo was abandoned.

And so the Ukrainian government could treat him as they wished, as they treat other dissenters and critics โ€” with imprisonment, brutality and murder.”

I published Lira’s last tweet (before his final arrest) a few months ago on the blog. Sadly, it looks as though the brutal, murderous, corrupt yet shambolic Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev has finally killed him.

Meanwhile, Rishi Sunak, the little Indian money-juggler presently posing as UK Prime Minister, is just now gifting the Jew Zelensky another ยฃ2.5 BILLIONS of UK taxpayers’ money.

The Kiev regime is toast regardless of how many billions are thrown its way by Sunak, Biden etc. Its people are not reproducing themselves, its population numbers are collapsing, it has no volunteers asking to join its armed forces, only foreign mercenaries from poor parts of the world (the Western ones have all gone home or been killed off in battle), and the Kiev regime is press-ganging any Ukrainians able to walk and talk, regardless of health, fitness, and age (except the gilded offspring of the pseudo-elite).

“Ukraine”, the failed state, only keeps fighting because the UK, USA etc are supplying arms, ammunition, medical supplies, food, and vast amounts of UK/US/EU taxpayers’ money.

All the same, strategically, Ukraine has already lost. The failed 2023 summer counter-offensive proved that. Once the ground is hard, very soon, Russian armour will rule the land, as Russian air already rules the skies.

Ukraine’s electricity infrastructure is already largely shattered.

The Russian economy is doing better not only compared to the collapsed economy of Ukraine but also better than those of the UK, USA, and EU.

In any case, even if (which cannot now happen, realistically) the Kiev regime could contemplate advancing in eastern Ukraine or (impossible) southern Russia, Russia has devastating weapons which have not even been used yet, not least tactical and strategic nuclear weapons.

I repeat, “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) simply cannot “win” this war.

Jesus H. Christ! There are still idiots, or maliciously tendentious types, like that Dominic Campbell tweeter, who can claim that Europe (inc. UK) is somehow better off because it is flooded by huge numbers of low-skilled, often hostile, immigrants. “Treason” is a word often bandied about carelessly, but what else is such deliberately misinformed and misinforming nonsense?

The said tweeter is obviously one of those who thinks himself part of a self-regarding “enlightened”/”woke” fake “elite”. Wrongly, at that.

Immigration is good for the ultra-wealthy, and exploitative transnational companies, because a larger population creates more consumer demand, and because pay rates and benefit rates are automatically lower as more potential workers flood in. For 99% of the population, though, mass immigration is a disaster.

We, the British people, do not need more “debate”, more research papers, more msm yapping on chat shows or Question Time, more pointless dialogue with idiots or enemies. We need political action to create an ethnostate.

I myself am already facing a sentencing hearing in court, after my recent political trial, for having published the truth about what is happening in our society. I therefore cannot speak freely. Read between the lines, dear blog readers…

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12875077/Israel-s-killing-rage-undermining-legal-basis-Gaza-action-warns-Wallace.html

Former defence secretary Ben Wallace has warned Israel that it risks undermining the legal basis for its action in the Gaza Strip, adding to growing international pressure over the escalating conflict.

Writing in the Telegraph, the senior Tory warned against a ‘killing rage’ and said Israelโ€™s ‘original legal authority of self-defence is being undermined by its own actions’.

The intervention by Mr Wallace, who left office earlier this year, is the latest warning to Benjamin Netanyahuโ€™s administration amid deepening concern over the scale of civilian casualties.”

[Daily Mail]

Even pro-Israel drones such as Wallace are now trying to distance themselves from Israel’s “massacre of (mainly) the innocents” in Gaza.

The Israelis and other Jews may not be (mainly) descended from the original Israelites of thousands of years ago (the Jews of today being descended mainly from Black Sea or other Khazars), but the former model their actions on the Israelites’ genocidal wars as recounted in the Old Testament.

“Jack Monroe”

I have in the past blogged about fraudulent “grifter” “Jack Monroe” a number of times (look via the blog search box), and still do not understand how it is that a black woman in Bristol is currently in prison for doing effectively the same as Jack Monroe (who has not been prosecuted): see https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/oct/31/edward-colston-statue-protest-bristol-xahra-saleem-fundraiser.

The above details only “Jack Monroe’s” Patreon “grift”. In addition, the “grifting” fraud also got money from stray donations direct to her, from newspaper interviews, radio, and TV shows and interviews, from “consultancy” “work” for major supermarkets, from well-paid appearances at various festivals and other events, and from book royalties, as well as from fake appeals for money based on non-existent legal actions against Lee Anderson MP and others (monies which “Jack Monroe” then pocketed for her own use). A total of tens of thousands of pounds a month at peak.

If you do, you risk (in the UK) being prosecuted at the behest of the Jew-Zionist lobby, eg the malicious cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. They have corrupted or otherwise suborned the police and CPS. I myself was recently convicted in the magistrates’ courts by reason of such a prosecution, as regular readers of the blog will know (I may appeal; we shall see).

Incredibly, there are millions of poor saps who believe loonies and/or liars of that sort. If you are told constantly, for example, from age 5 or 7 or 10, or 14, and from all manner of “authoritative” msm and other sources, that millions of Jews were killed during 1941-1944 in “gas chambers” by German SS personnel in Poland, then that idea becomes embedded in your psyche, and stays there until you are, so to speak, “cured” in —usually— later life, whether that be at age 21, 28, 35, 42 or whenever.

They sit there in their armchairs, calling for genocide, while fellow-Jews smile and laugh in the TV studio or elsewhere, yet if anyone in the West posts a comment about them, or a satirical cartoon, they are —or pretend to be— horrified, and equate that to “terrorism”…

Esther McVey is merely one of hundreds of “deadhead MPs”. The fact that so many clowns can become MPs and even Cabinet ministers proves, in my judgment, that the whole system is rotten.

Goodwin is right on those points, but goes very far wrong in persisting in his support for the Israel lobby, aka Jew-Zionist lobby, the very pack that is closing down free speech in the UK, not to mention supporting the migration invasion.

Stupid “Conservative” drone thinks that about 50,000 migrant-invaders crossing the Channel every year is “not a huge amount“. 1,000 each week. Where does the Government intend to park 1,000 new arrivals each and every week until the year dot (or until the UK explodes)?

I myself once met a Metropolitan of Kiev (the second-ranking dignity in the Russian Orthodox Church). At breakfast. My then girlfriend was looking after him that day (he spoke no English).

I think that that was at the de Vere Hotel by Kensington High Street, and in the early/mid-1980s. Maybe 1983 or 1984. He gave me some of his kefir (the first time I had tried it) and, at the same time, deftly fielded a question from me about his view of Tolstoy. Later that morning, at the empty Russian Orthodox Cathedral (also in Kensington), he gave me a bottle of Moskovskaya vodka.

Regular readers will know that I myself was recently convicted of —in effect— speaking the truth on this blog, a prosecution procured by improper pressure from the Jew-Zionist cabal “Campaign Against Antisemitism”; pressure applied by the “CAA” on suborned police, the Crown Prosecution Service, and even the Director of Public Prosecutions.

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-12862953/Hundreds-middle-aged-adults-dying-month-Covid-ended.html

An extra 28,000 deaths logged across the UK in the first six months of 2023.

The spike in mortality is especially stark among people aged 50 to 64.

Hundreds more middle-aged Brits are dying every month than expected, with experts blaming unhealthy lifestyles and the NHS crisis for the surge in excess deaths. 

An extra 28,000 deaths, or more than 1,000 a week, were logged across the UK in the first six months of the year, according to fresh analysis of official figures.

The spike in mortality is especially stark among people aged 50 to 64, with 15 per cent more dying than usual.

An analysis of the data, published in The Lancet, also noted that more people are dying at homes rather than hospitals.

During the pandemic, excess deaths were focused among older adults.

But there is now a pattern of ‘persisting excess deaths which are most prominent in relative terms in middle-aged and younger adults’, the authors wrote.

Anti-vaxxers have claimed excess deaths are down to Covid jabs but scientists insist that the injections, which have saved tens of millions of lives globally, are not to blame.”

[Daily Mail]

Yes, System propaganda and compliant medics are insisting that the Covid “vaccines” have nothing to do with this trend. Almost anything else is being blamed— lifestyles, lack of exercise, booze etc etc.

I blogged some time ago about how my own two younger brothers, both lifelong amateur sportsmen (golf, tennis, other sports), and without any history of heart disease, both had to have emergency heart operations in 2022. Both survived, one in the UK and one in Australia; both had received multiple “vaccine” injections in the preceding two years.

I, on the other hand, have not done any kind of sport or physical recreation for 20+ years (though in younger days —1980s, 1990s— I swam several times per week, sometimes for several miles, as well as doing —though not for very long— taekwando at one time and, at school in the early 1970s —albeit unwillingly— rowing, and at same age—more willingly, though again not for long— fencing).

I never accepted the supposed Covid “vaccines”, and have no heart problems.

There is an absolute epidemic across the “Western” world of previously healthy people suddenly dying, usually from heart attacks.

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/dec/14/sunak-scraps-dedicated-minister-disabled-people-government

A farmer who was filmed dragging his white husky along the road while it was tied to the back of his car before she died has avoided jail.

Kim Norman Rendall, 65, was filmed callously dragging his pet pooch Daisy by a rope for around 200 metres, along Timsbury Road in High Littleton, near Bath.

Bristol Crown Court heard numerous motorists witnessed the horror and tried to stop Rendall by beeping and flashing their lights at his red Nissan Micra. But he refused to get help for Daisy and later left her to die in a cow barn. 

Daisy was eventually found by police but was left severely injured in the incident on the afternoon of April 17 this year and had to be put to sleep nine days later.

Rendall was sentenced today to eight months in prison, suspended for two years, 300 hours of unpaid work alongside a 20 year disqualification from having or keeping animals with the exception of cattle, and fish.

Sir Keir Starmer‘s immigration policy is based on a lie. A well-intentioned lie, a lie designed to make us feel better about ourselves; but a lie nonetheless, a lie that will eventually bring down any Government he gets to lead.

He trotted out his falsehood again and again in interviews yesterday. Labour‘s solution to illegal immigration was to ‘break the gangs’.

Ah, what a delightful idea. Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could blame the Channel crossings on a few evil people traffickers? 

We could then regard every illegal entrant as a victim โ€” the highest accolade our debased age bestows. We could imagine them all as desperate families who have been exploited by callous mafiosi. We could divert resentment of illegal immigration away from the illegals themselves.

The trouble is, it’s piffle. The idea that demand would dry up if there were no middlemen is a fantasy. Blaming people-traffickers is sheer deflection.

We are, in other words, just starting a new age of mass migration, a vรถlkerwanderung. How we deal with it will define the politics of every wealthy country. I have no doubt that much of the legal infrastructure we put in place after World War II, including the UN Refugee Convention (1951) and the European Convention on Human Rights (1953) will end up being dismantled.

And when they do finally order, a third (33 per cent) of 25-34 year old’s will choose what to eat based on what will look best on social media.

Is this a sign that evolution is telling us that the present society does not deserve to survive in its present form?

I saw about 10 mins of Sky News coverage of that ludicrous COP28 jamboree. Some woman, a total clown, was talking about how vital it all was (just like it was last time, and in Copenhagen in 2009, when it turned out that the idiots could not even organize their own conference without creating chaos).

This is akin to the Covid “panicdemic”— those preaching from on high, from their massively-polluting private jets, do not really believe the bs they want the masses to believe (and so be compliant with all manner of “official” demands and restrictions).

One in five young Americans believe the Holocaust did not happen, a shock poll has found.

The survey, by The Economist and YouGov., included 1,500 people ranging in age from 18 to over 65 years old who were asked a series of questions about the massacre of six million Jews. 

Approximately 20 percent of people aged 18 to 29 agreed with the statement ‘the Holocaust is a myth’ and even more believed the death toll has been exaggerated.

Another survey asked 1,500 Americans if they agreed or disagreed with the statement, ‘The Holocaust has been exaggerated.’

For the 18 to 29 group, 23 percent agreed, and 26 percent neither agreed or disagreed.

So at least 49%…

People are waking up to the fraud and fakery.

The msm bias and absurdity is plain: the Daily Mail scribbler thinks that “the holocaust” is an “event“…

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12856425/British-advertising-firm-billboard-campaign-kidnapped-Israelis-complaints.html

A British advertising firm has allegedly pulled a billboard campaign that pictured  Israelis kidnapped by Hamas on October 7 following ‘an unusual volume of complaints from the public’.

The campaign was organised by the Israeli Embassy…

London Lites terminated what was meant to be a two-week ad campaign on boards throughout the capital after just six days, Jewish News reports.

The company reportedly said that it had received thousands of complaints in response to the posters, which picture Israeli hostages and feature the now-famous hashtag ‘Bring Them Home Now’.

The Israeli Embassy in London said in response to the adverts being taken down: ‘We regret that the “London Lites” company caved to the threats of an extreme minority in the UK, which forcefully tries to limit freedom of expression. 

‘The Embassy is considering further steps against the company.

[Daily Mail]

So the Israeli Embassy deprecates “the threats of an extreme minority in the UK, which forcefully tries to limit freedom of expression.

Ha. They should talk to their collaborators in the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] in that case. That malicious cabal is engaged in a persistent campaign to do just that— to limit and kill off the freedom of expression of British people, as witness my own persecution over the past decade, culminating recently in actual prosecution, a prosecution procured by political pressure exerted by the “CAA”, and the Jew-Zionist lobby generally, on the CPS, right up to the level of the Director of Public Prosecutions.

Indeed, it is the “CAA” that has recently had vans driving around London carrying large illuminated posters of the Gaza hostages. The “CAA” is a major collaborator of the Israeli Embassy in this and other activities.

If I say so myself, who shouldn’t, that blog post has held up rather well over the intervening 5-6 years. I hope that more people see it (there were a couple of hits today) before the (((usual suspects))) manage to use the suborned legal system to censor or even temporarily remove the blog.

“Why” is easy to understand. Pseudo-liberal “democracy” has not been providing the people with what they need. However, “populism” without social nationalism becomes merely a fake, a front for those who are under the thumb of Israel and the Jewish lobby. Think Farage, Tice, “Reform UK”. What think you, Monsieur Goodwin? Oh…

It is even possible that the Conservative Party will get a nationwide vote-share of well below 25%, or even below 20%, as even formerly die-hard Con voters are turned off by the sheer ineptitude of the bunch of clowns pretending to be a Cabinet and Government.

Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] puts the Con Party result for 2024, on the above premises (based on a 16% Con vote), as a total of 39 MPs (even a 20% vote might give the Con Party only 59 MPs).

Much, of course, depends on whether the Labour vote holds up or not. If it falls below 40% nationwide, the result might be very different.

Still, Goodwin must be right as far as “historic defeat” is concerned. In 1945, the Con Party was left with 197 MPs; in 1997 only 165. At present, it seems as if the 2024 result might be even more striking: somewhere between 25 and 125 MPs.

Ha ha! Slava!

Diary Blog, 3 December 2023, with a few thoughts about Labour and Starmer

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/dec/02/keir-starmer-praises-margaret-thatcher-for-bringing-meaningful-change-to-uk

Keir Starmer praises Margaret Thatcher for bringing โ€˜meaningful changeโ€™ to UK.

Labour leader says former PM โ€˜set loose our natural entrepreneurialismโ€™ in appeal to Tory voters to back him.

Labour leader says former PM โ€˜set loose our natural entrepreneurialismโ€™ in appeal to Tory voters to back him.

Writing in the Sunday Telegraph, the Labour leader said Thatcher had โ€œset loose our natural entrepreneurialismโ€ during her time as prime minister.

[Mail on Sunday]

Hard to believe (for those who imagine that Labour is still in some way “socialist” or even “social-democratic”). Starmer praising not only Mrs Thatcher but also global finance-capitalism, and in the Sunday Telegraph to boot!

Britain in the late 1970s had its problems, but the Thatcher government went far too far the other way, though in most respects not as far as have all UK governments since 1997.

“Labour” and “Conservative” have both become just almost-meaningless labels, rather like the kind of parties seen in Latin America which call themselves simple names to bamboozle simple electorates— “blanco”, “colorado” etc. The same as in Russia under Yeltsin; a major party (theoretically or mostly in opposition during the 1990s, but really not) was called “yabloko” (Apple), and its symbol was an apple. Simple, meaningless, deceptive.

Starmer, thanks to the utter collapse of the Conservative Party, is riding high by default. He has no need to even pretend that Labour is the “party for the working man”, as in decades past.

Also:

The Labour leader touted the partyโ€™s โ€œiron-clad fiscal rulesโ€ in an effort to portray Labour as trustworthy on the economy.

โ€œThere will be many on my own side who will feel frustrated by the difficult choices we will have to make,โ€ he added. โ€œThis is non-negotiable: every penny must be accounted for. The public finances must be fixed so we can get Britain growing and make people feel better off.โ€

[Mail on Sunday, citing the Sunday Telegraph].

Just look at that. “Difficult choices“, “the public finances must be fixed” etc— the very words so often used by Cameron-Levita, Osborne, and their gophers, Clegg and Danny Alexander, in the early days of the Con Coalition of 2010-2015.

The only slight surprise is that Starmer still refers to his “own side“. What side is that? He pretends that there is still a Labour and ‘Tory’ divide. In reality, the ruling members of both System parties are following the same agenda: globalized finance-capitalism, “Friends of Israel”, and the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan (funnelling blacks, browns etc into the UK in order to create over time a mixed-race and easily-ruled subject population).

Vladimir Putin could resort to deploying nuclear weapons in his war against Ukraine if the Russian despot feels his forces face defeat on the battlefield, a retired US Army Brigadier General has warned.

Kevin Ryan, who served as Chief of Staff for the Army’s Space and Missile Defence Command, said nuclear war is an ‘entirely feasible’ option for Putin if Ukrainian forces make gains on the battlefield and even retake captured territory like Crimea.

Ryan, who also served as the Defence Attachรฉ to Russia, said Moscow is not just at war with Ukraine, but with the West too – and it’s for this reason Putin is much more likely to see the use of tactical nuclear weapons as ‘prudent deterrence’.

The exploding of a nuclear weapon inside Ukraine may seem like “overkill” in a war against Ukraine, but in a war against the West, it could be seen as prudent deterrence,’ Ryan tells MailOnline.”

[Mail on Sunday]

Well, the flaw in the retired officer’s above argument lies in “nuclear war is an ‘entirely feasible’ option for Putin if Ukrainian forces make gains on the battlefield and even retake captured territory like Crimea.

As someone once said, “that dirty little word if“..

“If” Ukrainian forces make gains on the battlefield (they are not making gains), and “if” the Kiev-regime forces “retake” Crimea (that will never happen).

Putin has no need to remind the USA, UK etc (NWO) what power he has. NATO knows what will happen if it goes too far.

Whatever people may tell “their” MPs, the reality is that “their” MPs are (in another sense) “their” MPs (Labour Friends of Israel, and Conservative Friends of Israel)…

Telling MPs this or that changes little or nothing.

Iain Dale, “I think Labour’s position on immigration is an absolute disgrace.. The three of us on this panel have all explained what the benefits of immigration are.. Do you ever hear a politician, from right or left, extolling the virtues of immigration?” “And you have the leader of @UKLabour probably our future Prime Minister, basically saying: the Tories haven’t gone far enough. I mean the world’s gone mad on this issue”

Iain Dale is typical of the UK msm— completely under the influence of the Jewish lobby/Israel lobby, completely pro-immigration, and hostile to the idea that the poorer 90% of the country should have any real rights.

Incredibly, Jewish-lobby puppet Iain Dale received only a mild police caution for attacking that elderly dissenter or protester in the street.

If only life were that simple. I recall being an involved observer of something similar once or twice back in 2011 and 2012, in other words not so long after Labour had been in power for 13 years.

Hard to judge whether Iain Dale is one of the conspirators wanting to import 20,000 blacks and browns (mainly) per week, or whether he is just a bit thick. Maybe a bit of both.

As someone tweeted, Dale lives in an area where average house prices well exceed ยฃ600,000, and where the impact on him personally will not be felt for decades, even if he is still alive by then. Rory Stewart is another one, his main property being a listed country house in the England/Scotland border country.

At the present rate, Britain, which had about 56M inhabitants (99% real British) when I was a small child, and which now has about 65M officially and 70M unofficially, will have 77M+ in 2030, 87M+ in 2040, and maybe 100M in 2050, by which time (if this madness is not stopped) the country will have become a soulless, largely urbanized and suburbanized dystopia, where hardly anything works properly and where the population is mainly black, brown, or “mixed-race”.

I am 67 already, so —thank God!— I myself will or would not be here to experience the hell that may be not very far down the line in the UK.

I am doing what little I can to stop that disaster happening, but the forces of the State (suborned by the Jew-Zionist cabals) have already prosecuted me for blogging the truth.

Those whom the Gods wish to destroy, they first make mad“. As in…crime going through the roof, and migrant-invaders make money illicitly while laughing at the British people, and while, at the same time, people like me are prosecuted at the behest of a pack of Jew-Zionists for something as trivial as having allegedly posted justified remarks and the odd cartoon about society and politics…

The “readers’ comments” are interesting, with many saying —all too rightly— that this country is no longer a democracy, and that they will vote Reform UK. Well, I have no time for Farage, Tice etc, but if Reform UK can break up the present binary stitch-up, good…

The “Conservative” Party has relied on sheep-voting for a long long time, just like “Labour” did in Scotland (and is now doing in England). Both parties have MPs, “lords”, and activists who want the very opposite of what the vast majority of British people want.
