The victims of such attacks often make it worse by failing to defend themselves against the mob. The professor made the mistake of “apologizing” (for what?) to the mob. He should have faced them down, and also tried to attack the ringleaders in some way.
As for the university in question, either cowardly or treacherous, a phenomenon we have seen before, eg in the Priyamvada Gopal case at Cambridge. Academia is infested with traitors now.

They can #greenwash all they like, but using old oil wells to bury nature's most important fertiliser is a blatant #BigOil scam. Ingenious, but totally corrupt. Is #GretaThunberg on the payroll, or just a useful idiot?https://t.co/IgbC28FmRU
Of course, the Twitter —and other— office bods who do things like that to restrict free speech only do so because they know that they themselves will not have to answer directly for their crimes.
That evil woman is, despite being Prime Minister of one of the least significant states, right at the heart of this transnational conspiracy. She worked for Blair and Brown in London. She favours non-white immigration into New Zealand. She favours repression. Look at that video. She says straight out that her people will “come and get” those who are “unvaccinated”.
That was your intention in making it. You purposefully wanted to desecrate a Christian holiday and mock and demoralise white people who celebrate it. There is no real target audience for this film. You just wanted to be deliberately offensive, as is the norm for your kind.
Boris Johnson has just said that evacuating 15,000 people from Kabul was the biggest military achievement in 50 years or more. The annexation of Crimea in 2014 was a great military achievement. Bringing foreigners to occupy the UK is the opposite of what the military is for.
Whether Labour is headed by caricature socialist Corbyn, or by wealthy Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer is of little importance; both have almost nothing in common with, or to do with, the vast majority of British voters.
The only question is whether “Boris” Idiot continues to mess up so royally that the voters will vote for Labour as the only available alternative. Even though it is a non-alternative, a fake alternative, a useless alternative, and an alternative the policies of which are almost identical, in reality, to those of this corrupt and stupid “Conservative” government.

Almost exactly the same story as that of my late mother-in-law: admitted to hospital at age 98 or 99, in 2020, with a fracture of the foot; negative for “Covid” at first, but while in hospital, after about 2 weeks, tested positive (i.e. was infected with the virus in one of the NHS’s shambolic and unclean hospitals). No symptoms either before or after the test. Discharged after another week or two, still without symptoms. Died of other causes several months later.
Had she died within 28 days of the last test, my late mother-in-law would have become yet another “Covid” statistic, another faked victim not of “Covid” but of System lies.
We are now seeing untold billions wasted on supposed “vaccines” and “boosters” re. the latest “variant” which so far has killed, in the UK, precisely no-one. Madness. Planned madness…
Meanwhile, the NHS is, at best, a skeleton service, having become a facade “national Covid service”.
I myself had occasion yesterday, though not on my own account, to visit the local medical centre, about a mile or two away.
In normal times, the centre, a pleasant two-storey building with creeper and flowers growing on the outside, is fairly busy. There are about 8 GPs. Now, GPs are apparently rarely seen by patients, and nurses dealing with ongoing routine conditions are seen strictly by appointment made by letter (in this case, 2 months before).
The medical centre reception area was deserted except for a masked receptionist. There was not one patient waiting in the large waiting area. I was there for about 35 minutes, in which time only one patient arrived, and then another just as I left.
That waiting area had been denuded of some of the furniture formerly there, and most of the pleasant large potted plants as well. Rather sad.
I do not recall Michael Buerk standing up or speaking up for my rights when a pack of Jews instigated my contrived disbarment (6 years after I had ceased Bar practice!): see
…and neither have any BBC talking heads, or the Daily Mail, or Laurence Fox, or Toby Young, or the “Free Speech Union”, made any comment on my (by now) widely-read account of when —effectively— the same pack of Jews made a malicious and false complaint to tame Essex police about me: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/13/when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/. One of a number of such complaints made about me over the past decade by essentially the same pack, incidentally.
If Michael Buerk is worried about the ending of free speech in the UK, he is at least 25 years out of date, and arguably 50.
Needless to say, neither the Daily Mail nor Michael Buerk (nor the rest) identify the main driver of the repression of free speech in the UK— the embedded Jew-Zionist element.

So if Scotland achieves faux “Independence”, it will rely mainly on Scotch whisky, agriculture, and tourism? It will, however, lose its subsidies from the UK (i.e. England). The poor Scots used to emigrate to the lands of the Empire, or to the USA; but now?

“Stay behind” units in 1940: an historical note
The Second World War, with its complexities, nuances, twists and turns, and ideological subtleties, is endlessly fascinating. I happened to see a local newspaper story about part of Churchill’s idea of how to “fight on the beaches, fight on the landing-grounds” etc.
Churchill, though a genuinely world-historical figure, unlike Boris Johnson (who tries to ape his style and manner), does have a few characteristics in common with his latter-day copier. One is that he was largely ineffective as head of government when given his head; also, he was a person with, often, very silly ideas. Churchill was no good as a strategist; as for tactics, his ideas were really straight out of boys’ comic books.
The Norway operation in 1940; the British Expeditionary Force in France, also in 1940 (my own grandfather was on the Dunkirk beaches), the idea of invading France via the Cote-d’Azur in 1944, the Fall of France, the Fall of Greece (including Crete), and so on, give some idea of Churchill’s lack of strategic nous.
Stay-behind units were organized, with the idea that they might not last more than 12 days after any German “reverse D-Day”.
It was presumed that German invasion forces would strike initially at the London area:
“Operation Sealion, Hitler’s plan to invade across the Channel, almost saw the German 6th Army land at Lyme Regis in 1940 and push inland to Bristol and Gloucester.
Meanwhile the 9th and 16th Armies were to attack from Portsmouth to Dover, sweeping northwards to capture London and East Anglia, Britain’s breadbasket.” [DorsetLive].
Despite the chilling ruthlessness of their remit, the “Auxiliary Units” had a delightfully Wodehousian aspect:
“Grouped into “operational patrols” of four to eight men, AU members needed excellent local knowledge – making gamekeepers and poachers ideal candidates.
But known members of local patrols include bakers, carpenters, car salesmen, dairy farmers, electricians, fishmongers, miners and train drivers.
“The staff of Charborough Park – a country house estate now belonging to South Dorset MP Richard Drax – were also formed into an AU patrol.
The chauffeurs, foresters, gamekeeper and gardener of Sir Reginald Aylmer Ranfurly Plunkett-Ernle-Erle-Drax, Mr Drax’s grandfather, moonlighted as would-be saboteurs and assassins.” [DorsetLive].
One almost expects Sir Roderick Spode (a parody of Sir Oswald Mosley) to make an appearance, with a slight ideological twist, perhaps. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roderick_Spode.
There were, it seems, about 6,500 volunteers in such “stay behind” units, most of whom were organized around the southern and eastern coasts of England.
As for the conventional forces defending, “The Germans put the British defences at 320,000 men, with machine gun nests positioned 300 yards from the coastline, artillery guns 1,000 yards inland and another line of artillery and machine gun nests 3,000 yards back.
A line of more than 600 armoured cars and tanks were said to have been positioned two miles inland and a reserve of 50,000 men a further two miles back.” [The Argus].
In fact, Operation Sealion was not a ready to roll plan such as had been Fall Gelb, “Case Yellow” (or “Operation Yellow”), the plan for the invasion of France [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manstein_Plan]. Sealion was called Unternehmen Seelöwe, not “Fall Seelöwe“.
My German is poorer than it should be (bearing in mind that I did take German at school, and I did also have a couple of crash courses later, when I was in my twenties), but the difference in designation seems to be that one plan was ready-to-go, while the other was somewhere between that and a contingency plan.
It is known that Hitler wanted Britain, and the British Empire, as an ally against the expansionism of both the Soviet Union and the U.S.A. His preference in 1940 was for an armistice, not for conquest by invasion.
Apart from Hitler’s preference for alliance, there were operational reasons why Sealion never proceeded: lack of total air superiority was one, but another perhaps more important was the lack of carrying capacity by sea of the German navy. There were not enough barges to carry the armies required, and not enough defence for those barges.
If, however, the invasion had happened, “[the Auxiliary Units]…would disappear to their OB, wait for the Germans to go over the top of them and attack the rear...”
“Patrols would attack bridges, convoys, fuel dumps and so on, breaking the supply chain and holding up the advance of the blitzkrieg, giving the regular army time to regroup and counterattack.”
“Equipped with suppressed sniper’s rifles, the fighters would also be expected to assassinate anyone who might expose their underground operations.
“Patrols would take out collaborators as well as local policemen and intelligence officers – innocent men, killed just for knowing their identities…”
“Anyone who stumbled across their OB would also be killed. And if a patrol member was injured and couldn’t get back the OB, they were obligated to shoot him...”
“Their life expectancy was just 12 short days – with orders to kill each other and themselves if capture by the enemy seemed imminent.” [DorsetLive]
There were, then, two underlying assumptions or, better said, hopes, on the part of the Auxiliary Units: the first was that the units would survive for 12-14 days; the second was that the main British forces would be able to mount a successful counterattack.
As to whether the stay-behind fighters could survive for 14 days, my assessment is that they could do so easily if they did nothing or very little; once they started to shoot people and blow things up, it would be a different story.
The Germans might not have been able to do much to repress any stay-behind activity in the first confused days following invasion, but once those early days had passed, the Feldgendarmerie and SS would rather rapidly have started to arrest or kill suspects.
It is remarkable that the British plans included the assassination, on a default basis, of British police and Army personnel, or local residents, who knew of their existence! That might soon have backfired, with other such people helping the Germans to eliminate such ruthless persons hiding in their neighbourhoods. We shall never know. What we can be fairly sure about is that the Auxiliary Units would have had little impact on the eventual result, in big-picture terms.
As for the Auxiliary Units as the basis for a possible “British Resistance”, impossible. Limited stocks of weaponry and ammunition, no help from external sources, and the German security grip tightening steadily.
Could British home forces have defeated a German invasion force, had it landed in the numbers suggested? Doubtful. For one thing, the projected German force was to have been 600,000 after a few days; the defending forces would have numbered under 400,000.
Secondly, the quality of German tanks, light weapons etc outmatched the British; the same was true of the fitness of German troops. Red Cross reports of the period (from France) noted that British soldiers captured were often undernourished, stunted, with poor teeth and poor fitness, a result of the social conditions prevalent in the UK in the 1920s and 1930s. The German prisoners taken by the British were found to be, almost universally, in a good state of health and fitness, the result of, mainly, 7 years of National Socialist government.
Another point is that the German forces will mostly have seen action in Poland or France, whereas the British home forces were mostly without recent battle experience.
It is true that large wargames (a major one took place at Sandhurst in 1974) have generally resulted in German defeat following a 1940 invasion of Britain, but those results were based on destruction of much of the invasion force at sea, and failure to execute the invasion plan with sufficient boldness. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Sea_Lion_(wargame).
History is full of examples of invasions that should have failed, but did not. Alexander’s invasion of the Persian Empire, and William of Normandy’s 1066 invasion of England, are but two. Indeed, Hitler’s own experiences in 1939-41 (Norway, France, Poland, the Soviet Union, Greece, Yugoslavia etc show that boldness can bring victory even in unlikely circumstances. Rommel’s victories in North Africa were usually achieved against the odds.
It can certainly be argued that Hitler should have pressed on in 1940, even in circumstances of high risk. Britain would have quickly folded, and then, under new political leadership, found a new role, with the Empire, as a “dual-rulership” of much of the Earth, in collaboration with the German Reich.
On those premises, huge destruction and misery would have been avoided, both in the 1940s and thereafter. The world would have been a far better place now, had that happened.
As to the results further down the line, had a German invasion succeeded, one has to say that, in some ways, perhaps most ways, Britain itself might have been —80 years on— better for it. There would have been no migration-invasion by blacks and browns, and no Jewish-Zionist exploitation. Services such as the NHS would have been available earlier and better.
Incidentally, a German victory in 1940 would not have meant long-term German occupation, certainly not after a few years, and not necessarily a harsh one. The main aim, for Hitler, would have been disarmament or control of the British Army, navy and air force.
Hitler’s preferred ruler of Britain, we now know, was none other than Lloyd George! The Security Service, MI5, was well aware of this, and monitored him closely.
“Lloyd George was consistently pro-German after 1923,[169] in part due to his growing conviction that Germany had been treated unfairly at Versailles. He supported German demands for territorial concessions and recognition of its “great power” status; he paid much less attention to the security concerns of France, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Belgium.
[170]In a speech in 1933, he warned that if Adolf Hitler were overthrown Communism would replace him in Germany.[171] In August 1934, he insisted Germany could not wage war, and assured European nations that there would be no risk of war during the next ten years.[172]
In September 1936, he visited Germany to talk with Hitler. Hitler said he was pleased to have met “the man who won the war”; Lloyd George was moved, and called Hitler “the greatest living German”.[166]: 247 Lloyd George also visited Germany’s public works programmes and was impressed. On his return to Britain, he wrote an article for the Daily Express praising Hitler and stating: “The Germans have definitely made up their minds never to quarrel with us again.“[166]: 248
He believed Hitler was “the George Washington of Germany”; that he was rearming Germany for defence and not for offensive war; that a war between Germany and the Soviet Union would not happen for at least ten years; that Hitler admired the British and wanted their friendship but that there was no British leadership to exploit this.” [Wikipedia].
Well, in the trite but true expression, “man proposes but God disposes”…
Strange. My memory tells me precisely the reverse, as far as the years up to 2010 are concerned. It is a complex picture, but I recall a country where things were OK (speaking very very generally) until 1997 (I was mostly out of the UK that exact year, though), one where a gradual “communitarian” police statism started to develop under Blair and Brown, and one in which (and here I do agree with the tweeter) there was a catastrophic decline in standards from…well, the tweeter says 2010 (i.e. when Cameron-Levita and his clique became the Government), but I think earlier, maybe from 2005 or so (under Gordon Brown).
I recall returning to the UK from France in 2009, having not been here for a year (I had been spending half my time in France since 2005, and was also in a number of other countries during 2005-2010), and noticing the social darkness that had already descended, a year before David Cameron-Levita became Prime Minister.
The (Pakistani?) tweeter is obviously a simplistic Labour Party partisan, who thinks in unsophisticated ways: Labour government 1997— good, Conservative government 2010— bad. If only life were that simple.
Ah. Just looked him up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahir_Shah. Not Pakistani, but Indian Muslim (born in the UK), and a comedian. Britain may be short of housing, energy, water, good jobs, a decent and working society generally, and good government, but we shall never, it seems, run out of comedians. Sometimes there seem to be thousands of them, though few I have seen or heard (on TV or radio) are actually very comic.

“…championed the importance of freedom of speech“? Not one word from Young about how I was disbarred (wrongfully and actually unlawfully) at the instigation of a certain pack of Jews, some of whom still try (though vainly) to persecute me. Not a word about the persecution and prosecution, by the same pack of Jews, of the singer-satirist Alison Chabloz, who has now actually done time in prison for mocking “holocaust” fakery and hoaxes (fakery almost all done by Jews). Not a word about the fact that Jez Turner, of the now-defunct London Forum, was imprisoned for simply making a speech in Whitehall urging the removal of Jews from the UK.
Now I wonder whether there is a common theme about those cases when Toby Young and the “Free Speech Union” stayed guiltily silent?…
In 2004-2005, for nearly two years, I lived in a farmhouse in the constituency, near Milton Abbot (6 miles NW of Tavistock), having moved out of Polapit Tamar House, 8 miles away across the Tamar in Cornwall (a lovely place then, though since I lived there split up into numerous dwelling units, and currently on sale for £7M).
Geoffrey Cox became MP for Torridge and West Devon in 2005, but at that time I was too busy trying to make a living at the Bar to take any notice of System politics, certainly did not vote, and was unaware, I think, even of the bastard’s name.
We do not have to consider the almost-ubiquitous “holocaust” fakery, hoaxes, or “memories” which simply could not have happened, to understand that human memory often cannot be relied upon. Ignorance of fact can also play a role.
I have just seen a tweet in which the tweeter reminisces about his school trip to the Soviet Union in 1984 or 1985. The trip apparently consisted of a week in Leningrad and a week in Moscow.
Inter alia, the tweeter concerned tweets that he visited the Hermitage (in Leningrad), and walked on the surface of the frozen Volga…
Well, I suppose that the above memory could be accurate, but probably is not. Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) is on the river Neva; Moscow is on the Moscow river or Moskva.
The Volga has a quite convoluted course, and at its nearest to Moscow is only about 85 miles away, at the meeting-place of the Volga with the Moskva-Volga Canal (aka Moscow Canal): https://factsanddetails.com/russia/Places/sub9_9a/entry-7029.html. It goes nowhere very near St. Petersburg.

The Moscow river is a tributary of the river Oka, which is in turn a tributary of the river Volga.
The upshot of the above is that the tweet I saw could be accurate but quite likely is not. The tweeter probably walked on the frozen Neva, or perhaps the Moskva, or the Moskva-Volga Canal.
Memory cannot always be relied upon. My own memory is (I have found) better than that of almost anyone else I have ever met, but is still occasionally inaccurate.
Talking of memories of Russia, I saw another tweet today, which contained a picture of the interior of the GUM complex near Red Square. Marble floors, clean, redolent of luxury.
I first saw GUM in 1993, when most of the shop units were empty, the (then white) marble floors containing wide cracks in places, and a snack bar in the area on the ground floor was doing a good trade in open sandwiches (red caviar on buttered white bread); I had one myself, I think.
When I returned to Moscow in 2007, all changed. Tan marble, everything clean and tidy, and the shops were all occupied; they included Thomas Pink, Armani etc. Not very busy, perhaps because it was a weekday and early evening, or perhaps because of the high prices. In 1993, it was also not busy, though then because there was rather little to buy. I believe that, in Soviet days, GUM was always packed, as was the toy shop Detsky Mir (“Children’s World”) next door (with access then from GUM as well as from the street). In 1993, I wandered in from GUM, out of curiosity. The few outsized soft toys were charged at extortionate prices. Oddly, or perhaps not, no children and few adults there.
For a moment, I thought that he must have done something really bad, like identifying a Jew as Jewish, but on reflection, that would have required the participation of the “Anti-Terrorist Command”, I suppose…
In other words, anyone posting anonymously on the Internet will be tracked down and harassed in various ways, if the poster is deemed “anti-Semitic”. On the other hand, the legion of Jew-Zionist trolls abusing people anonymously should have their identities and other details protected. That is what those bastards (tweeting above) really mean.

The author of the cited piece says that many dissidents are forced to “keep quiet” in order to avoid being “cancelled”. He does not explore the possibility that some dissidents, “cancelled”, censored, unable to express views, or put forward ideas, might decide to strike back at their imprisoners, or tormentors, or at the self-appointed “leaders” and “influencers” of the very sick society that is developing fast in the UK, USA etc. Action directe?
On the wider point, the people generally, “the plebs” if you like, do not want “authoritarianism” as such; they want “authority”, in the sense of statesmen in charge of government, rather than clowns like “Boris” and his cronies. People who know what they want for the country, and know how to get things done. Look at the part-Jew/Levantine chancer! He can do nothing except to spin fantasy islands, fantasy bridges, fantasy airports etc. Incapable of being a Prime Minister. Totally unfit for his, or any, office. Not that Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer is any better. He is equally useless, simply less colourful.
The people also want TV news that reports facts, rather than the present BBC/Sky propaganda mouthpieces.
The people also want decent and working administration, both at central and local government level.
The people want a proper NHS, a National Health Service, not a “National Covid Service” run for the benefit of those who work in it.
The people also want to be a functioning nation-state, with a basically white European population, not a multikulti, dystopian chaotic mess, kept like that for the profit and benefit of “a certain tribe”.
The above is in fact only part of the entire problem.

Jonathan Sumption was one of the first barristers, in the 1990s, if not the first barrister, to earn over a million pounds per year in fees (albeit that a few pre-WW2 barristers made a similar real amount, in the money of their day). He later became a Lord of Appeal in Ordinary, aka a “Law Lord”, i.e. a Justice of the Supreme Court (nb. not Lord Chief Justice— that is something else). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Sumption,_Lord_Sumption.
The above post is factually (and grammatically) inaccurate in that, but not wrong otherwise.
Now, because he has spoken out against the trashing of civil liberties and formerly accepted rights since the start of the “panicdemic”, Sumption is regarded by the System (of which he was, in a sense, part), and the msm, as a “conspiracy theorist” and effectively a crank.

Ha ha! You see the same lack of self-awareness in the Zionist Jew milieu online.
When I was up before a Bar Disciplinary Tribunal (which eventually wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred me in October 2016), one of my defence points was that the (eventually, only 5, out of 150,000+) tweets I had tweeted, and which were adjudged so offensive that I had, supposedly, no right to tweet them, had been tweeted in my personal capacity; also, that my Twitter account made no mention in its profile that I was a barrister.
The Tribunal, and the Bar Standards Board, twisted a very few other tweets to “prove” the contrary. All the Jews applauded both that (and my wrongful/unlawful disbarment).
Later, some of those very Jews, and who are solicitors or barristers, faced the same or similar problems as I had, but made the same plea, that their comments were made as part of their non-professional life. Other Jews weighed in on their side. What a pack of hypocrites they are (too)!
On the wider point, I have been blogging and (before the Jew lobby had my much-read Twitter account removed in 2018), often tweeted about the “privatization of public space” online. That also formed part of my talk to the London Forum in 2017.
On Twitter and other online fora, one has no rights beyond very limited contractual ones. There needs to be an independent appeal process but I fear that the Jewish element would infiltrate that (too), were it ever to exist.
As for the £37 BILLION completely and utterly wasted on NHS “test and trace”, how infuriatingly crazy, when that money could have gone to new rail infrastructure, hospitals doing proper clinical work etc.

This is not something about which I have strong feelings either way, but one does not have to turn to the Old Testament to see that liaisons between older men and younger women, even with age gaps of 20 or 30 years, are not uncommon in many parts of the world. In fact, they are not terribly unusual even in the UK and other parts of Europe today. Some such liaisons are sanctified by marriage rituals, others take place covertly.
What occurs to me is that the attitudes of society, at least in the UK, and perhaps mainly among the kind of people who scribble for newspapers, have changed. Today, in the UK, as compared to, say, the UK of the 1970s, 1950s, or 1850s, an approved msm figure (David Hare is Sir David Hare) can describe an age-gap relationship as “disgusting” and “wrong“, but woe betide anyone who used such a description to describe (or condemn) a sexual relationship between two men, or two women, or between persons of radically different races or nationalities…
As for Sir David himself, he is not directly affected by the age aspect, married as he is to a Jewish woman who is one year older than him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicole_Farhi.
In the end, this is a question to which (in my opinion) there is no “answer”, except that given by individuals, and also by the society in which those individuals live. I do not think that there is one right answer for all places and all times.

🎬 Sir David Hare has been forced to admit that the age gap in one of his films – between Bill Nighy and Rachel Weisz, an actress 20 years his junior – was “so wrong”
I agree —in part— with Hare about the way in which the BBC gradually lost its Reithian “inform, educate, and entertain” basis.
Hare says that “news” (much of it the BBC acting as a government mouthpiece) has displaced everything else. I hear what Hare says about that, but for me, while I can agree with what he says about BBC News, the BBC long ago put “entertainment” (and pathetically poor much of it is) before the informing and educating of the public.
Whatever. The BBC is now pretty poor and possibly unsalvageable without the sacking of most of its staff.
In fact, the kefuffle at Sussex University, and the general madness around “trans” this or that, is what happens when the anti-free-speech genie is let out of the bottle…
Wales
It seems that the Welsh Government is going to continue to force people in Wales to wear facemasks (and to work from home) until 2022. I think that central (UK) government should cut what amounts to its subsidy to Wales. They (the Welsh Government, not the people) want to make choices that make Wales less efficient? Fine, but the UK will not subsidize the economic consequences of those choices.

When I was a barrister practising from chambers in Exeter (2002-2008), I had contact with some of the Devon (and East Cornwall) hunting/shooting country set. Not necessarily “bad people”, but not particularly “good” either. Overall, just rather backward in terms of attitude, I should say.
I am no medic, but there has been, from the start, something not right about the whole System narrative around the Covid-19 “panicdemic”.
First of all, in early 2020, we were told that this was something almost akin to the 1970s British TV series, Survivors (no relation to the funny Alison Chabloz banned song of the same name): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivors_(1975_TV_series); incidentally, writing this, I notice that Survivors was remade in 2008, still with the same idea, i.e. that a Chinese lab releases a deadly virus, which spreads worldwide, changing everything…makes you think.
So, anyway, we were all thoroughly frightened in early 2020. However, measures such as the facemask nonsense were not implemented in the UK for about another 7 months. In some parts of Europe, notably Sweden, there was no panic, no facemask nonsense, all the bars and offices stayed open, and —quelle surprise— outcomes were better than in the UK and the other panicked parts of Europe (France, Germany, Italy, Belgium etc).
Since then we have seen that, in the world as a whole (even on the very inflated and misapplied statistics used), maybe 5 million people have died of or, rather, with “the virus”, which figure sounds huge but is out of 8 BILLION people. In other words, roughly one person out of every 1,800.
In fact, most of the deceased had other life-threatening problems anyway, many have been very aged (thus with low immunity), and many have become part of the death-statistics simply because they had (unreliable) positive tests for “the virus” up to a month prior to their death (which might even have been in a car accident). Absurd.
The UK is now going to be hit with poverty and restriction thanks to the policies applied for nearly two years by part-Jew chancer “Boris” and Indian “clever boy” Rishi Sunak. Pensioners are going to be hit as far as they can be without alienating their mainly pro-Conservative Party votes entirely; taxes overall will be increased by stealth as far as possible.
Huge amounts that could have been spent improving infrastructure and/or the environment have been just squandered on nothing much, squandered for no reason.
The crazed “furlough” payments and other policies did not come free of charge, though the masses probably, in fact clearly, assumed that they did.
A far larger sample than with the previous tweets, but once you adjust for the inbuilt Remainer bias on Twitter, the result is, in reality, probably not far off 50-50 again.

Meanwhile, and while free speech in the UK is being destroyed by, mainly, Jew-Zionists, the BBC has seen fit to make a TV drama series, Ridley Road, portraying Jew terrorists, gangsters, and other thugs of the 1960s, as heroes.
As Labour is now, its only hope of office is to get to within about 50-60 seats of a Commons majority, and then to make a compact of some sort with the SNP and its MPs (numbering, at present, 45). However, the SNP would only make such a compact on the firm understanding of an early Indyref Mark 2. If that were to happen, and if, then, the SNP won such a second “indyref”, then the UK would break up, the SNP would no longer be in the Commons at all, and Labour as a party of government would be history.

2/2 @carnabyjohnson To see virtue in the peaceful, self-controlled world before 1914 is not to believe that its poverty and ill-health should have remained unreformed. Without the great waste of war, we would have made made *more* of this sort of progress, not less. https://t.co/v75eZWbxmQ
Good point from Hitchens here. The point is valid also in respect of the Second World War. In the UK, great strides were being made in the 1930s in the areas of town planning, housing etc; the Depression poverty of the North was certainly not replicated in the South of England, generally speaking, certainly not in the late 1930s. The War spoiled much of the good that was happening. Britain only started to recover from its pyrrhic victory from or after 1955.
"Dame Cressida is the very symbol of the useless, politicised modern policing which does not serve the public, male or female. That is how she got the job."

Despite its actions, forced upon it by the Jew-Zionist lobby, Bristol University put out the following weasel words:
“It said the university regards the “principle of academic freedom as fundamental” and would like to “reiterate that we take any risk to stifle that freedom seriously”.” Yeah, right…
Doormats for the Israel/Jewish lobby.
Even that tangled conspiratorial web is not complete. Small —but vocal and malicious— Zionist organizations, such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], are absent, possibly because the graphic is a few years old.
Looks hopeful, anyway…(though only on one reading)

Australia (as I have blogged recently) was once (when I was there as child in the late 1960s) officially “White Australia”, a so-called “Lucky Country” of mainly Northern Europeans, near-full employment, decent pay, aspiration (often fulfilled) etc. Now look. A dystopian, multikulti, multiracial mess, with exploitative finance-capitalism, considerable unemployment, and on top of that, now also a viciously-harsh biosecurity police state.

So we are told that “The big picture is, drug companies make their money developing drugs and treatments for chronic diseases that go on and on and on,”?
Is that not what “the virus” is now doing, with ever-more exotic “variants” and, therefore, a “need” for more vaccines and vaccine injections? Makes one wonder…
December 1944 newsreel
Perhaps “unrealistic”, but I sometimes wonder what would have happened if every single German civilian had managed to shoot, using a small pistol such as a compact Walther, one or two of the invading soldiery, particularly on the Eastern Front as it approached and penetrated Germany itself. After all, German civilians outnumbered all invading forces.
Naturally, matters were not so simple as suggested above, but we sometimes think that things are “impossible” when in fact they are possible, but also too painful or inconvenient to do.
The test for, or touchstone of, whether these msm outlets are for “free speech” or not is whether certain groups can be mentioned, and their behaviour questioned. Above all, Jews and their perceived behaviour, meaning both on the individual basis, and on the group or communal basis.
If a “free speech” outlet, or pressure group, or political party, treats the so-called “JQ” (Jewish Question) as taboo, then it can be binned as worthless. Over to you, Talk Radio! Over to you, Jeremy Kyle!
For example, we have recently seen the emergence of the Free Speech Union. It has a Twitter account, and well-known figures from the “controlled opposition” lead it or belong to it, but the FSU has never once, not one single time, supported the freedom of expression of, say, Alison Chabloz (imprisoned for taking part in an Internet “radio” podcast discussion which mentioned Jews), or Jez Turner (imprisoned for making a speech in Whitehall which mentioned Jews) etc.
Not one “human rights” barrister, or “free speech” talking head, or newspaper scribbler, supported me by word or deed. Not one was brave enough to do so. Useless venal people.
The following exchange on Twitter illustrates the point about what is or is not free speech:
You're not looking at this correctly. When people say 'can' they're not talking about physically being able to do it. It's about being 'allowed' to. They aren't the same. Obviously everyone has the capacity to voice their opinion. The issue is if they are punished for it
One still sees, on Twitter (often the online home of the ignorant) the contention that “you have free speech but are not free from the consequences of your free speech“.
The above frankly moronic assertion is not uncommonly seen on Twitter. Even those who certainly should know better (eg the odd law lecturer from a “McUniversity”) are seen to come out with the assertion as if it were a judgment of Solomon.
Naturally, a moment’s thought makes it clear that, if you “have free speech but not freedom from consequences“, then Stalin’s Russia, Mao’s China, even Pol Pot’s Cambodia, or North Korea, had “free speech”. You can say whatever you like, but you may then end up in the “GULAG Archipelago”, or the Cambodian “Killing Fields”.
Not a very plausible assertion.
There should be unlimited free speech on social, historical, and political questions, no matter whether this or that ethnic or religious group feels offended. In fact, it is usually only a tiny part of any minority ethnic or religious group that is disposed to find “offence” or indeed to seek it out.
An obvious example of the above is the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, which purports to represent Jewish-Zionist interests in the UK, yet in fact is a tiny minority of a minority. Somewhere well below 500 members. Its few public demonstrations since it started in 2014 have been attended by 50 to 100 individuals, despite its friends in the msm inflating the figures to hundreds and, in one egregious instance, inflating an attendance of about a hundred or so to “thousands”!
Incidentally, there are about 250,000 Jews in the UK, perhaps more, so the “CAA” membership, thought to be a few hundred at most, is representative of only one UK-based Jew out of about every 1,000 or 2,000.
Yes, I’m slowly beginning to agree that this is what is happening. The changing attitudes to Cryptocurrencies among the conventionally conservative financial classes is also an indication of it. They are lining up Bitcoin to become the global currency.
Don’t people understand? Once you set up a system like that, and start incarcerating people on spurious “health” grounds, there is no going back. The system can be repurposed, the camps can be repurposed, at any time. “Health”, “Covid-19”, “spreading fake news”, “wrong attitudes”, “racist”, “anti-Semitic”, “harmful to public order” etc…

The topic is perhaps particularly apposite today, being the day on which the disastrous Second World War started in 1939, 82 years ago.
Alison Chabloz
Usually-reliable sources report the following about Alison Chabloz, the persecuted singer-songwriter and satirist:
Alison remains well, despite still being incarcerated in Bronzefield Prison near Heathrow.
Apparently, Alison’s room or (to put it that way) cell has a view of a courtyard in which are flowers and cherry-blossom trees. Alison not only sings, but also paints, and is painting the said courtyard scene.
Alison has now been given a (paid) job in the prison, involving arts and crafts, sewing, beading etc; she enjoys such activity anyway.
Breakfast for Alison is, firstly, cereal and milk, delivered to her room along with two flasks of hot water. A full “English” breakfast can then be had elsewhere, together with toast, jam etc. The plentiful supply of snacks said to be available during the day seems almost superfluous. Oh, and the menu for lunch always has six choices, including vegetarian, halal and even kosher! Ha ha! Ironic…
Sources report that today’s lunch for Alison consisted of fish and chips, by reason of today being a Friday. A strange survival from Europe’s monkish past.
Well, of course Alison should never have been prosecuted at all, let alone sent to prison, but it is good to know that she is not quite in the “GULAG Archipelago”…
Perhaps Bronzefield Prison should enter the TV “bed and breakfast” competition, Four in a Bed! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_in_a_Bed. It scores on “value for money”, if nothing else…
At present, Alison is in prison until around the end of the month, but may be released earlier; we shall see.

I often think back to the situation in Eastern Europe in the 1980s. I was there a few times in the late 1980s, and travelled there and back by both car and plane; Poland, Czechoslovakia, DDR (East Germany), spending over 90% of that time in Poland. I also had contact with Soviet matters in the 1980s, though did not visit Moscow until later (1993, and then in 2007).
In those 1980s days, despite ramshackle aspects and popular discontent (especially in Poland), socialist rule seemed strongly embedded in Eastern and parts of Central Europe. Eventually, it just fell off like a snake’s skin.
Thinking back further, the Shah of Iran seemed fairly secure on his throne until…well, until one fine day his whole government and society just collapsed.
Exactly. There is always the understandable temptation to see the best in the System drones and politicos, “doing their best” etc. Sadly, reality then breaks in, and you see the evil iron fist within that “caring sharing”, “liberal” velvet glove.
