The hounds are killed when too old for hunting, usually 8 years max. Hounds are bred every year, at every hunt, any not up to hunting are killed. Many are killed in road accidents, many are injured when hunting. They are disposable to the hunts. They are victims of hunting too.

The Roman Empire slowly collapsed from not one but many causes. However, one was the combination of decadence, luxury, profligacy and cultural degeneration at the top of that society; another was mass immigration into Rome and Italy generally from all parts of the Empire.
There is no exact parallel with the Europe of today and the Britain of today. Close enough, though.
Tweets seen
I knew that this sort of censorship happened. I have long argued that the most pernicious “cancel culture” is the one directed toward pro Palestinian speech. But I was shocked at how blatant it was. They were very clear I was being fired for criticism of US policy toward Israel.
I am lucky, however, that I have an independent platform at my own small leftist magazine. This means that I have more ability to speak, because I can survive without getting another newspaper column. If I was freelance it would be much more difficult.
The editor in chief told me, in writing, that I wasn’t allowed to tell anyone that he was policing my tweets because officially I was “free to speak.” He tried to “confidentially” patrol my public speech. But I am not going to keep something like that silent.
ah yes because when I get canceled, it's cancel culture but they when get canceled it's just whining, for the things I believe are better than what they believe.
It has been very obvious that cancel culture (not the best name but that's another story) would never be something
that is restricted to canceling the "bad guys". It has been very clear that this is an all-encompassing phenomenon that will come back to bite *anyone* expressing a dissenting opinion, no matter how well-reasoned that dissenting opinion is.
“The incident, on May 29, 2018, began as Ms Lancaster was about to leave the Tesco store and Doris’s son was swinging on a metal bar.”
“Doris [black defendant], believing [white victim] Ms Lancaster’s basket had touched her son’s head, shouted “you have met the wrong woman you white b***h”, the court heard.
“She shoved Ms Lancaster inside the store, hurled racial abuse, and told her: “Watch out, watch what happens to you when you come outside”, Southwark Crown Court heard.“
“She then shoved Ms Lancaster on the shoulder, forcing her to stumble forward”.“
“Ms Lancaster, who works in the travel industry, suffered injuries to her head and knees, and was left with post-traumatic stress disorder, the court heard.“
“Doris, who was sentenced via videolink from her home, admitted assault by beating and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.“
“Darryl Cherrett, her barrister, said Doris has learning difficulties and mental health difficulties.”
“She entered guilty pleas last month on the first day of her trial, with the judge agreeing for her to be sentenced remotely as she was not going to send her straight to prison.”
Sentence? A “suspended” (plus some “mental health” and “rehabilitation” bs). I wonder what a white person would have got, had the roles been reversed?
Several other aspects of that case are troubling: the judge apparently decided to give a non-custodial sentence before even having heard the full history, or any mitigation; the defendant being allowed to sit at home to be “sentenced”; the fact that this low-IQ and lunatic black woman has children at all; finally, a barrister called “Darryl” (chalk that one up to my prejudice). Well, there it is. Britain in 2021…
In the 1980s and later, I myself would sometimes visit that market, off Edgware Road, more to walk through than buy, though I did once buy an excellent-quality 2-flask spirit set in tan leather-covered steel from a woman vending from an old suitcase (and probably without a licence). Secondhand but pristine. £10, I think. Provenance (of both flasks and woman) unknown, beyond both obviously having come from Scotland.
Unfortunately, but inevitably, the “big battalions” of the (ZOG) Government, Opposition, msm, and their Twitterati camp followers, have won the argument for the majority of the public mind, won not on merit but because the fear propaganda has been massive and is now embedded.
It will be a different story once people realize that they are permanently poor, marginalized, unable to travel without huge expense and convenience, corralled and controlled, and muzzled everywhere. Then, they will look desperately for a solution…and a leader.
…and to think that I thought that only Russians eat ice-cream in the street when the temperature is sub-zero! Having said that, I myself once or twice had a Baskin-Robbins cone (probably coffee-flavour…I am very much a creature of habit) in a frozen Manhattan, a long long time ago.
These ancient remedies and preventatives are very useful, but we must not lose completely the advanced knowledge developed over the past 500 years (much of it in the past century). If world society steps back, let it then step forward twice, and our society bounce back even if and when a short-to-medium term disaster occurs.

If the police don't understand the law, how do they expect the public to understand them?
I'm not sure why we're supposed to respect the police if they can't get one of the most basic and fundamental parts of their job right.
I have experienced similar problems with the police a few times over the past few years, particularly in 2017 and 2018. Police who not only do not know the specific law they themselves are purporting to enforce, but are simply unwilling to be instructed by me, a former practising barrister (one wrongfully disbarred some 8 years after I ceased practice: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/) as to what the law is.
What the law is, not what stray police constables think that it is or might be, and certainly not what malicious Jew-Zionist individuals would like it to be.

I have never been to Copenhagen, but I once read somewhere that, until quite recent times (possibly 1980s), the gates of the Carlsberg brewery had Swastikas either on the gateposts or worked into the brickwork of those gateposts. Maybe the latter. I doubt that they are still there today, wherever they used to be.

If I may say so, @johnrentoul, that is the most complete bilge, and shows you have not been paying attention. I am disappointed, and had thought better of you. My blog, going back to March, should link to most of my writing on the matter. Please take a look. https://t.co/3iCNkeZtft
The journalist John Rentoul usually presents himself quite well, a political “all-seeing eye”, but I have noticed that he normally scores below me in the Saturday quiz in theinewspaper, so it may be that he is not a fount of knowledge after all.
Dying *with* Covid or *of* Covid? Dr Jenny Harries, Deputy Chief Medical Officer for England, insists on the distinction at a govt press conference last May. I agree with her. https://t.co/e6b4NEuCN2

Exactly. The Government is not respected but the “Labour” “Oppositon” is just irrelevant, and is unwilling to oppose “lockdown”, the facemask nonsense etc; indeed, wants more “controls”!
Labour (label) just has nothing to offer. The fact that Keir Starmer is a puppet of the Jewish lobby (meaning Zionist lobby, Israel lobby, NWO/ZOG) is not very relevant in terms of public attitudes, because the public is mostly asleep. Jew-Zionist “control” is rather “caviar to the general”. What does sink Starmer is that (as I blogged before he even took over from Corbyn) he is as dull as ditchwater.
Some of these types would be more at home in the old DDR (East Germany). “Obey the Government rules or else”…
I notice that Dr. Janaway has well over 40,000 Twitter “followers”. There again, demented creature Louise Mensch has 289,000! Some pop groups have millions.
John Rentoul may have to accept that his general knowledge is nowhere near as good as his specialized political knowledge. At least he is honest enough to publish his generally poor results.
I have beaten Rentoul almost every week for months, since I started to follow his Saturday quiz attempts from the i newspaper. We have tied once, or maybe twice. I think that he beat my score once, a week or two ago.
This week, Rentoul scored poorly again, 3/10. My score was 5/10. I failed on questions 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10.
So speaketh the “liberal” Twitter-twits…I was unsure who this is; had to look him up [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Haig]. An odd person who seems to think that, in our contemporary world, you have free speech even though every single online or offline platform may be denied you. I suppose that the idiot means that you can go outside and shout in the street (until Matt Haig or some similar twit complains).
Another “liberal” friend of censorship and the police state, who wants to ban “dangerous” people from communicating dissenting views.
Winter is coming for #FreeSpeech. But DuckDuckGo = Google, Parler = Twitter, Gab is hardened to leftist attacks & the pressure of events will force the new dissidents to pick sn alt Facebook. Censorship will create a giant 'Deplorable' echo chamber. Good!https://t.co/bFkudhbIOX

How have we ended up like this in just 10mths. Society itself is collapsing, human rights and liberties are being decimated all because of 1 man, a handful of secondary men and women and one particularly influential pressure groups decisions (Sage).
Precisely. You manage a public health emergency within the constraints of human rights. You don’t ride roughshod over them regardless. Make healthcare better if necessary, don’t destroy lives and liberty and the very fabric of society.
A temporary limit that has lasted nearly a year. In that nearly a year, despite being asked, the govt has given no firm end date for that 'temporary limit' and has even threatened further restrictions later.

Most kind of you @legendpetersanford , though perhaps unduly kind. Even so, I do think I have tried to be restrained, fair, truthful and civil. If despite this I am the target of a campaign to silence me, then I feel we must all worry about the future of any dissent at all. https://t.co/Uy7Waoq0LV
Ah, if only those with public profile, such as Peter Hitchens, had defended my free speech rights, and other rights, when the msm publicized my 2016 disbarment; I was disbarred for having tweeted five tweets on general aspects of society, particularly the Jew-Zionist backstairs influence everywhere, by which I mean legal milieu, politics, msm etc. But no…Hitchens said not a word.
Hitchens also failed to speak up for Alison Chabloz, prosecuted by Jew-Zionists and then CPS for having posted online her songs mocking “holocaust” fakes and hoaxes. She is still being both persecuted abd prosecuted.
Meanwhile, Jo Brand can, with impunity, incite violence against Nigel Farage and others, and a tidal wave of filth and violent incitement comes from Jewish “comedians”, many paid millions by the BBC and other msm outlets.
For years, decades, I have heard Americans yapping about their “right to bear arms” etc, but the main thing about all those privately-held arms seems to be to show them off at gun shows.

Covid-19 ended suddenly in China because there was no political purpose in further lockdowns there. Life is ´back to normal’ bcos the social credit/QR access code system is already established. But lockdowns continue in the West because the ‘Great Reset’ is not complete yet.
Catch-22. Either the quasi-monopolies of the online space act like autocrats and arbitarily (meaning, usually, at the instigation of the Jewish lobby) chuck people off their platforms, or the State “regulates” those platforms, resulting in the very same dissidents being censored or removed. No difference; same result.
In fact, while we are talking about online platforms (and the msm)…
…and replace “terrorism” with “Coronavirus“…
The UK death toll supposedly “from” “the virus” (i.e. with the virus, and other conditions in almost all cases) is about 78,000 now, in the past year. About one out of every 900 people in the UK.
Parler has been removed from the Google Play Store!
This is not a game, but war. So far, only one side (the System side, mainly via the Jewish lobby and its “antifa” dupes, and also —in the UK— via the police and CPS) is really playing.
Tweeting, blogging, posting ideas, may be all good, but they do not win this kind of war, whether in the USA, UK, Germany, wherever.
The US military allowed neo-Nazis / white supremacists to sign up to fight in Afghanistan and Iraq because they couldn’t recruit enough soldiers.
Thousands of these veterans are now back in the US.
A lot of things are happening all at once now. Well-known and even famous people being censored or expelled from Twitter etc, platforms such as Parler subject to concerted attack, the UK Government now seriously trying to institute a real police state both online and in the streets. Just a few examples. If it can happen to the President of the United States, what chance has the average Joe got?
This is all part of the Great Reset and Great Replacement. The latest stage of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.
2022 is fast approaching. An even more significant year than 1989, the previous one in the 33-year Zeitgeist cycle. The secret and/or secretive Western cabals are preparing to seize the world agenda as they did in and around 1989, but in a different way. That is why they either created “Covid-19”, or used its existence as a way of clamping down on free speech (as well as on street demonstrations, travel etc).

I am trying to get this important information out to as many people as I can before the System, possibly using the Jewish lobby or part of it, prevents me from being able to post the truth. There is that danger.
True, my blog only reaches a relatively small number of people (I do not believe that I have ever had 1,000 hits in a single day, and the norm is less than half of that number), but not many other bloggers (if any) are posting some of the stuff I write. I —and my blog— are certainly targets.
Readers of this blog can help by sending my articles and diary pages to others, or linking to this blog in whatever those readers themselves write.
Talking about this blog and its readership numbers, I started writing this blog in late 2016, so have now had 4 full years of operation. 2020 was by far the best year in terms of numbers of visitors and numbers of hits.
The number of both visitors and hits in 2020 was more than double the number of visitors and hits in 2019.
In 2020, the number of hits was 8-9 times the numbers achieved in both 2017 and 2018 (which years resulted in similar numbers of hits).
As for the number of visitors, the number in 2020, while over double that of 2019, was around 6 times that of both 2017 and 2018.
I see no reason to disagree with any of the above. In fact, what I saw happening then —Twitter (etc) expulsions, suspensions, censorship, shadowbanning— has intensified since then. The latest news is that Twitter has actually suspended, for 12 hours, the Twitter account of Donald Trump, the current President of the United States! Facebook has done the same or similar.
Those who have read my tweets will be aware that I have never had much time for Trump, though I wanted him to beat Hillary Clinton in 2015 because that ghastly bitch was pushing (as NWO/ZOG puppet) for conflict and indeed war with Russia.
Trump was the prisoner of the Jew-Zionist lobby, as are all US presidents (certainly since Kennedy), and since his election he has become little more than a squawking parrot in a gilded cage.
Still, Trump is for the moment the President of that great and greatly-flawed superpower, and for a mere commercial quasi-monopoly to purport to censor the American head of state is stunningly dystopian.
As to the events themselves, and to borrow, appropriately, the McDonald’s slogan, “I’m lovin’ it“!
I love seeing and hearing the outrage of all the NWO/ZOG puppets and hypocrites: Macron, Boris-idiot etc.
An evening foray
Yesterday was first day of the latest disastrous “lockdown”. Went mid-evening to my local supermarket, a Waitrose. Roads almost empty going there (less than 2 miles), and even less busy on the return journey.
Waitrose car park almost empty. One difference noticed was that the by now usual solitary black-clad Handmaid’s Tale militiaman (a “marshal” from some security company, hired by Waitrose) had been joined by a couple of colleagues, one of whom loitered inside the store not far from the entrance. With their black masks, and in one case a black scarf as well, they differ from those seen in the Handmaid’s Tale TV series only in that they are unarmed (and presumably unlikely to drag unbelievers off to execution).
Not sure what their job is. Mask enforcement? The Waitrose customers (rabbits) are often seen wearing facemasks even in the car park, so effective has official fear-propaganda been. Anti-shoplifting? Seems doubtful; they rarely patrol inside the store and, frankly, look as if, in the old phrase, they “could not catch a cold” (a most appropriate phrase at the present time, arguende…). They do seem to help the car park/shopping trolley fellow to clean said trolleys.
As for the store itself, very few customers. I noticed that there had been little “panic buying” this time, unlike during the earlier “lockdown” shutdown(s). The “usual suspects”, tinned tuna and loo paper, were not cleaned out but had evidently taken somewhat of a hit. Everything else in abundant supply.
Bought some lottery tickets (Lotto/Thunderball) and a scratchcard. Outlay of £40. Result— one £30 win, one £3 win (Thunderball) and one £5 win (on the scratchcard, which cost £5). £41 in toto. Profit of £1 overall, so no Scottish estate purchase this week…

Tweeter “@StarrittJames” seems to be yet another unthinking person whose answer to the censorship and “deplatforming” now rampant is to bleat “Twitter/Facebook/YouTube/etc are private enterprises, and you have no right to be on those platforms; they can remove you at will“.
That is legally correct, as things stand, but the point is that that should not be the case. As I have tweeted and now blogged for years (and spoken, at the London Forum in 2017), these organizations are quasi-monopolies (as are Amazon, ebay etc), and the citizen should have rights there qua citizen, and not merely qua “customer” or qua “contracting person with few contractual rights”.
Yes @tinytim0101 . Opposition to these measures is feeble, and has failed. The suppression of ancient freedoms, where it is not actually popular, is widely accepted as justified. That is why HMG and its supporters feel free to ignore or suppress it https://t.co/PEdpuvAPfg

This morning, or yesterday, I heard some BBC drone on the Radio 4 Today Programme talking about the Chinese repression in Hong Kong. Well, all very bad, I’m sure, and I have no doubt that Hong Kong was better when under British rule (and when I was there in 2006, several Chinese and Indians said the same to me), but the UK is now sinking so fast into unfreedom that it really has little locus standi to criticize others.
Exactly. The rabbits prefer to believe that “the man in the white coat”, or the man with the clipboard, or the —allegedly— terribly clever part-Jew, part-Turk who went to Eton and Oxford and remembers a bit of Greek and Latin, “knows better” and has some kind of authority. Nein danke…

Well, there it is: yesterday, nearly 13,000 known “cases”, yet only 65 deaths. About 1 death for every 200 “cases”. Most people are not even tested, so that must mean about 1 death for every 1,000, 2,000 or more people in the UK.

Britain’s toytown police state flexes its muscles again
I am reposting, below, tweets from little Darren Grimes [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darren_Grimes], despite the fact that he and his “libertarian” friends have never once said a word in defence of, inter alia, me, Alison Chabloz (who is still being both persecuted and prosecuted for singing songs and for taking part in an Internet “radio” discussion!), or Jez Turner of the London Forum (persecuted by a pack of Zionist Jews who then leant on the CPS to prosecute him— he spent 6 months of a one year sentence in prison, for making a single short speech in public).
Ecce! The “Free Speech Union” (the usual “libertarian” crowd, Delingpole, Toby Young etc), and LBC radio talking head Iain Dale all decry the misuse of police powers to repress Grimes’ free speech. Fine, but where were those hypocritical bastards when I was under attack? Skulking, afraid of the Jew lobby, that’s where!
They never defended my rights, never defended Alison Chaboz, never defended Jez Turner or others who have been repressed by police and prosecutors suborned by the Jew-Zionist lobby.
Still, here I am defending this individual’s rights. #MoralHighGround…
Incidentally, I see that the Daily Mail article above is written by Sarah Vine, the wife of Michael Gove [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Gove]. One of the (in the end, five) tweets that resulted in my 2016 disbarment was that describing Gove (entirely accurately) as a “pro-Jew, pro-Israel, expenses cheat“. Despite those words being entirely truthful, they were held at Tribunal to be “grossly offensive”! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Gove#Controversies.
Below, a typical tweeter who supports free speech (he says) yet seems rather naive to say the least—for a lecturer in politics (even at secondary school level): http://www.adrianhilton.com/index.php/sample-page/.
Darren Grimes is perhaps not sufficiently aware to know that it was the Jew-Zionist lobby that started this fairly recent trend of “lawfare”, meaning the abuse of badly-drafted laws to repress opinions of which that Jew lobby disapproves. The most obvious example of a badly-drafted law is the Communications Act 2003, s.127.
Jews are fond of saying that “repression may start with the Jews but rarely finishes with them“. It seems to be true, but not in the way “they” mean. They themselves started this attack on free speech, but it is not the Jewish population that suffers from it.
Oh, and right on cue (see below) comes Karl Turner MP [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Turner_(British_politician)], the sort of muddle-head who thinks that he is being terribly clever for saying “freedom of expression does not mean freedom from consequences“, a phrase which could be applied to Stalin’s Russia or Mao’s China.

HM government would do well to remember that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

The problem is that a huge number of people who want to be taken seriously have a huge amount of emotional capital invested in the fear propaganda, the facemask nonsense, the “lockdown” stupidity, the “clap for the NHS” nonsense (remember that? Idiots standing and clapping to order?). Not just the Government of Clowns; also the Twitterati (most of them), the pseudo-socialists etc. The facts are plainly against them, but all they (really) want to do is control what others do and say, or even think. The facemask muzzling is symbolic of that tendency.
I would rather trust Soviet TV, if it still existed, than today’s BBC.
2/2 @gerryoliver1. Given that we *do* know that these measures destroy jobs, businesses, health and liberty, I think I am entitled to ask those who call for them to provide evidence that they do any good. At the moment, HMG and Government broadcasters BBC *presume* this. https://t.co/Y1r6mLZxLk

“There is no getting around the fact that Europe is in absolute decline.”
“The continent’s long-stagnating economy is perched at the edge of a precipice. The Covid-19 health crisis has morphed over these past six months into a severe recession, exacerbating long-established European economic fault lines. Already hard-pressed southern Europe is experiencing by far the worst of things, as the continent is rotting from within. The south grows ever more politically resentful, even as the north grows weary of bailing out its hapless European brethren.
Vastly underreported, Europe’s moribund economy is presently entering a doom loop of deflation, with extremely limited weapons at its disposal to avoid the dreaded Japanification of the continent.” [City AM magazine] https://www.cityam.com/almost-unnoticed-europe-hurtles-into-decline/
Another important point. I see reports now from industries as diverse as hotels and construction, all starting to seriously consider increasing the use of robotics and allied technologies. Caterpillar is even adapting existing machines to no-driver operation.
What kind of bad joke is this?! Banana republic meets Ruritania! The Garden Bridge: FAILURE; Brexit: mishandled FAILURE. Incredible. When will the idiot scientists on “SAGE” [me version is DUMB— Department Under Matt and Boris] get gongs too? Next year probably…

More about the Darren Grimes matter
The big question of course is whether the CPS/cops are saying the publication on social media of *any* interview with someone who says racist things is potentially committing a public order offence. Indeed publication/broadcast anywhere.
The above thread (worth seeing) was about Keir Starmer’s refusal to support free speech. He of course is completely tied up with the Jew-Zionist lobby and the freemasons.
A tidal wave of “usual suspect” idiots are on Twitter today, not supporting free speech but socio-political repression. Look at the idiot below:
Well said @Keir_Starmer Mr Grimes should be accountable for his actions in giving a racist a platform to propagate his views, police are right to investigate
Nice to see that some people see the sheer stupidity of many of the “politically-correct”.
You're missing the point, willfully or not.
Once you open that door, anyone can report you for an offensive communication, on any topic that they choose to be offended by. Whether you, or a reasonably minded person, is or would be offended by it is irrelevant.
That Dom Dyer person is pretty thick. He used to block me and tweet against me. Incidentally, I favour protecting badgers; he ought to stick to that. He does not have the horsepower to think and discuss about these wider socio-political issues.
Frankly, I think that half the problems with Britain are connected with the fact that far too many people in high or significant positions are simply not intelligent or educated enough. You only have to look at the present pack of clowns posing as a government.
So where does this end – do we say that owen Jones and ash Sarkar should be banned as we don’t want to give socialists a platform ? Should Corbyn be banned from the airwaves ?
Dominic, would you have Frankie Boyle prosecuted for the "Kill Whitey" comment on his show the other week, one that went unchallenged and was met with smiles and giggles by all assembled?
Here (below) is another unthinking one, a scribbler in the past for the Judenpresse/Lugenpresse, and in recent years editor of a holiday cruise magazine:
He is right. Hate speech and incitement should always be investigated – and challenged.

Those business activities seem to have crashed now:

It's a long read but this https://t.co/g1imyHkMxC is a devastating analysis of the mistake the major nations of the world have made by reacting wrongly to the Coronavirus. (also shows in detail why muzzles aka facemasks are virtually useless in most situations).

I have been thinking for a while about what happens after the ludicrous and misconceived “lockdown” or shutdown ends.
We do not as yet know when that will be. In the UK, that is. Some countries have not even had a “lockdown”, have suffered no worse than the UK (far less, in some cases), and their economies and societies are still functioning.
The present UK Government is plainly flying blind. As the ludicrous “lockdown” has continued, the Government has been driven by public relations, not by “the Science” (as a god), even “the Science” as presented to the Government by that lunatic politically-correct Imperial College professor, Ferguson, so often terribly wrong in the past too.
Yes, Hitler was born there, so it must be dangerous! Hitler “bestrides the narrow world like a colossus”; alternatively, “there is a spectre haunting Europe, the spectre of Adolf Hitler.”
Many wonder why Hitler still exercises such fascination over the European peoples, 75 years after his death. I think that there are several reasons.
For one thing, the world of today is, to a large extent, that formed in the crucible of the 1940s. Premature decolonization, the Cold War, the population explosion and the eventual migration-invasion are just some of the trends or situations which started in or soon after WW2. That is one factor. That would include the major international bodies of today: the UN, the World Bank and IMF, NATO etc.
There is, though, and in my view, more to it than that. Despite the Jew-Zionist propaganda of the past 75 years, which has intensified since the 1980s, many European people know, from some little voice amid the trumpeting of anti-Hitlerism and “holocaust” propaganda, that the real story of those years (the 12 years of first triumph, and then defeat and disaster, 1933-45), has not been fully or truthfully told.
More yet. It is the feeling that much of our present society in Europe (and elsewhere, but let’s focus) is just…wrong…The multikulti society with huge numbers of relatively low IQ, low culture blacks and browns; the ever-declining standards in public services, architecture, housing, “welfare” (social security), roads, rail; the feeling of stress brought in from having adopted a society based on what might be called “godless materialism”, and on a basically Jew-Zionist 24/7 “open all hours” society of round-the-clock moneymaking (profiteering).
People, European people, think or know, at heart, that we can do better. They do not say “Hitler was right!” simpliciter. No, it is more nuanced than that. They do know, though, by instinct, that Hitler would be on the side of a better, advanced European society, and would despise much of the present one. Ergo, not “let’s go back to the 1930s”, but “we have taken some wrong turns”. I think that that is the underlying mood.
A few late tweets seen
No, @3ticktrader It can't. I'm not the one who has been urging unprecedented, oppressive and expensive policies. It is the person urging such actions, not the one warning against them, who needs to prove his case. We're not safe, we're severely damaged, and we will be very sorry. https://t.co/oTecn3JOdT
So what? We don’t have to shut up and accept it when such a body seeks to restrict free speech . What you *can* do and what you should or shouldn’t do are wholly different things. @markbartlam. Creepy, isn’t it, when people defend such things? https://t.co/FUexUdGemS
You see this kind of thing all the time on Twitter, meaning tweets like that of “@MarkBartlam”, defending the privatization of the public forum, and the censoring of free expression by a few finance-capitalist quasi-monopolies (eg Twitter, Facebook) on the basis that “they are private enterprises, and can exclude anyone they wish”.
That sort of near-cretinism is now the norm, in fact. Many putting it forward even call themselves “socialists”!
While leftists everywhere glorify violent protest, a brave man speaks for the silent, peace-loving majority#Americapic.twitter.com/HDRTMpbFYj
Imagine a police chief in the UK saying that! Sacked immediately, of course, and probably also questioned by poundland KGB “anti-terror” police. Britain does not now allow its citizens to own “guns” (except farmers and landowners). However, it does not have a police force capable of and willing to do its proper job (most of the time).
I did not much like what I saw (on TV) of Bercow: my primary criticism of his behaviour is that he was biased. He openly ranted against the BNP to the schoolchildren’s play “Parliament”, at a time when the BNP were within sight of winning a few seats, in 2009 or 2010. A silly and nasty little person, who seemed unable to control his drunken slut of a wife.

Mr Miller, 54, was speaking on the steps of the High Court on Friday morning after partially winning his case against the force which descended on his workplace in response to a tweet they deemed to be “transphobic”.
The limerick, which was posted on social media, was recorded as a “hate incident”, despite the police admitting that no crime was committed.” [Hull Live]
“He argued that Humberside Police, following the College of Policing’s guidance, had sought to “dissuade him (Mr Miller) from expressing himself on such issues in the future”, which he said was “contrary to his fundamental right to freedom of expression”.
The judge said Mr Miller strongly denies being prejudiced against transgender people, and regards himself as taking part in the “ongoing debate” about reform of the Gender Recognition Act 2004, which the Government consulted on in 2018.
Announcing the court’s decision, Mr Justice Julian Knowles said: “The claimant’s tweets were lawful and that there was not the slightest risk that he would commit a criminal offence by continuing to tweet.
“I find the combination of the police visiting the claimant’s place of work, and their subsequent statements in relation to the possibility of prosecution, were a disproportionate interference with the claimant’s right to freedom of expression because of their potential chilling effect.”
The judge added that the effect of the police turning up at Mr Miller’s place of work “because of his political opinions must not be underestimated”.
He continued: “To do so would be to undervalue a cardinal democratic freedom. In this country we have never had a Cheka, a Gestapo or a Stasi. We have never lived in an Orwellian society.” [Grimsby Live]

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

The Cabinet of idiots
“Whitehall is now littered with…secretaries of state such as Gavin Williamson, while Liz Truss – who’d lose a battle of wits with an emoji – is the longest serving cabinet minister.”
“I’m afraid Johnson’s much-vaunted reshuffle this week merely served as a reminder that the only positive discrimination scheme in this country that has long functioned to the highest level is the one that puts idiots in the cabinet. By this metric, the loss of Andrea Leadsom is a blow, but one that’s more than made up for by the promotion of the likes of Oliver Dowden, Alok Sharma, Anne-Marie Trevelyan and Suella Braverman. Braverman in particular is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, The Guardian]
If only, after 1945, the European powers had agreed to co-operate in developing Africa as a continent, populating it with white people, taking care of the Africans, the wildlife, the environment, creating towns, cities, farms, with the environment, the animals, the birds being protected. No “African nationalists”, no corrupt and hopelessly incompetent African dictators or greedy African “democratic” politicians, no predation by marauders, whether African armed bands or greedy transnational companies.
I was interested to discover (if possible) whether Keir Starmer is a freemason. I assumed that he probably is, he having been Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). In looking at the Internet, I saw this, from 2018:
“Secret Freemasons groups for politicians and journalists have been operating in Westminster, it has been reported.”
“According to The Guardian, the secret society has two arms established for people working on the parliamentary estate.
The newspaper revealed that the New Welcome Lodge is for MPs, peers and parliamentary staff, while Gallery Lodge is for political journalists with access to parliament, known as the lobby.
Freemasonry records show that both are still active. It is understood that the New Welcome Lodge has 30 to 40 members, around four of which are MPs, while Gallery Lodge has 45 members.” [Politics Home]
That must be merely the tip of the iceberg. It would be naive indeed to imagine that only 4 MPs out of 650 are freemasons! There must be other lodges in and around Parliament. However, nothing directly about Starmer.
My interest in Starmer stemmed from the fact that he is now backing “all-BAME lists” for candidate MPs. In other words, Labour is “thinking about” introducing a colour bar! Oh, it’s OK, because it will discriminate only against white British people…
In fact, this further nail in Labour’s coffin is, in a sense, logical. As I have been blogging for a few years, Labour is now to a large extent the party of the ethnic minorities (except Jews). This latest nonsense just confirms that. As for white (formerly known as “British”) people, they can just “like it or lump it”. My feeling is that, even more than is presently the case, English people (especially) will turn their collective back on Labour and seek another horse to back.

Westminster voting intention
The two latest opinion polls. Both show the same picture: Cons high by default, Lab floundering around its core vote (25% to 30%), nothing else of interest:
One word or tweet about the Rothschilds and their role in politics or history (not even mentioning the word “Jew”) and a footballer is “charged” by the Football Association [FA]! Incredible…and look (((who))) are publicizing it…Did (((they))) complain about it in the first place? I wonder…
The Westminster City Council was set to reject the plans for a horribly ugly “holocaust” permanent exhibition by the Palace of Westminster, until this evil dystopian and Zionist lobby-ridden “government” [ZOG] took away the Council’s power to bin the scheme. The idea is rubbish, the design is even worse. Bin it. Bulldoze it.
I was 18 when that case became front-page news in late 1974. Over the years, I have read a little about it. For many years, I was convinced that Lucan was alive, he having been covertly relocated out of the UK by his wealthy and powerful friends. My rationale for that view was partly based on Lucan’s psychology: a fatalist, yet a gambler. For someone like that, there is always another spin of the wheel.
Later, my initial view was modified by the consideration that the worldwide hunt and continuing publicity must surely uncover the fugitive, if there was a fugitive. Now? I do not know what to think.
Ironically, Lucan’s financial problems might, today, have been less severe or pressing, in that he would today (perhaps; not all peers get money) have been entitled to claim £310 daily taxfree merely by “clocking in” at the House of Lords for 20 minutes per day, thus getting about £6,000+ per month.
Former MP Rory Stewart, now standing as Independent candidate for Mayor of London (the bookmakers have him as 2nd favourite), has climbed on the “holocaust” bandwagon and seems to be boosted by the malicious Jew-Zionist “charity”, the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”:
— Campaign Against Antisemitism (@antisemitism) January 28, 2020
I suppose that most people are unaware that Stewart is part-Jew (one-quarter), a fact which I discovered (via an alert reader of my blog) while researching updates for my lengthy blog post about him, when he was a potential Conservative Party leader (he later resigned both as MP and from the Conservative Party). My piece about Stewart is linked here, below:
Stewart’s wife is also part-Jewish, and their children are being brought up in that cultural milieu.
Stewart says that “the holocaust” “makes us see how quickly political rhetoric and posturing can become murder“. Fine words from someone who not only supported the NWO invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan but who also, as MP (2010-2019), voted for all of the cruel and callous “welfare” “reform” measures drafted (and very ineptly too) by Iain Dunce Duncan Smith and his cronies, resulting in the deaths of literally tens of thousands of (mostly) BRITISH people.
Stewart has many talents, and his self-promotion, and self-inflation of his deeds, does not take away from those deeds or talents, but he was wrong for the position of Prime Minister (in potentio), and is probably wrong for the position of Mayor of London.
What did Stewart vote for? Oh, this sort of thing, in effect: “a disabled man with a long history of mental illness starved to death just months after welfare officials stopped his out-of-work and housing benefits.” [The Guardian]
Wuhan
At last, the msm is catching up, asking why it is that Americans, French, Japanese, Australians are being evacuated, sending dedicated hospital planes etc for that purpose, while the British official and political response has been the traditional and useless one of “tell people to be careful, and then make a statement in the House of Commons”.
Our whole system is in danger of irrelevance and uselessness: from the Government, through the Foreign Office, the House of Commons, the House of Lords, the police, the “welfare” (social security) system etc.
Alastair Stewart responded to a black man on Twitter with a passage about "an angry ape" from Shakespeare's Measure for Measure.
But it also seems worth pointing out that he previously used this passage to respond to at least one other tweeter who was not identifiably black… pic.twitter.com/MZgyyPlJuC
Many on Twitter etc are defending Alastair Stewart, saying nice things about him etc, but few are pointing out that this is exactly what happens when there grows up a culture of political correctness, a culture of denunciation, a culture of “no-platforming” (i.e. suppression of freedom of expression on political, social or historical topics) etc. Few in the msm come out fighting for free speech.
Few attack the whole milieu of political correctness in which the msm now exists. Even fewer identify the principal driver of this unfreedom— the Jew-Zionist element in society, which infests both the mainstream media and, now, social media (particularly Twitter). In fact, there is a well-organized Zionist “claque” or mob of “them” on Twitter. They managed to get me expelled from Twitter in 2018 (after having pushed for it and conspired about it for about 7 years). They are the same Jews (and virtually all are Jews) that persecute satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz, and the same ones that eventually had Jeremy “Jez” Turner imprisoned for mentioning Jews unflatteringly in a speech made near the Cenotaph in Whitehall.
I notice that very few are looking beyond the bare facts of the Alastair Stewart sacking to what underpins it and many less-publicized events like it.
Once you go down the road of unfreedom, you move the game to the next level…
Nigel Farage documentary
Watched a Channel 4 fly-on-wall documentary filmed during the 2019 General Election. I think that some people laughed or smirked when I blogged at that time that Nigel Farage, though a good public speaker, is not a good politician. Not long after that, Farage stabbed his candidates and his rank and file members in the back by deciding to stand down all candidates in Conservative Party-held seats, even those held (as most were) by Remain-favouring Conservatives. A monumental error.
Farage’s inexplicable —on the face of it— decision killed his party right there and then, as I blogged at the time. It showed up Brexit Party as a here today, gone tomorrow pop-up. It said to Northern voters “Brexit Party are Con stooges”. It gifted Boris-idiot and his resident lunatic, Cummings, the election. Conservative vote share scarcely increased over what it had been in 2017; Labour’s fell dramatically. A third of eligible voters did not vote.
Had Brexit Party continued campaigning in all seats (originally entered for) to polling day across the country, it might not have won a single seat, but Farage would, in honourable defeat, have retained his reputation, Brexit Party might have surged later, and most important of all, the Conservative Party would probably have failed to win a majority. Those few thousand Brexit Party votes in each constituency would have made all the difference. Also, the Brexit the UK got would eventually have been a real one, not this fake one being loaded up at present.
“The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay In leaves, no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.”
Jenrick attacks free speech and freedom of academic life (again)
Robert Jenrick, the horrible little pissant who is now a Cabinet minister, has announced that he is to cut funding to local councils and to universities that refuse to “adopt” the misnamed “International Definition of Antisemitism” (“Working Definition”, more properly).
“The IHRA definition has been criticised, especially on the basis that it stifles free speech relating to criticism of Israeli actions and policies. Its adoption of the concept of new antisemitism, specifically connecting some criticism of Israel with antisemitism, has generated controversy.[16][17] High-profile controversies took place in the United Kingdom in 2011 within the University and College Union[18][19] and within the Labour Party in 2018. The definition has been contested by scholars of antisemitism for conflating antisemitism with criticism of the Israeli government, obstructing campaigning for the rights of Palestinians and being so vague as to fail the test of any definition – to be definitive. These include Brian Klug,[20]David Feldman,[21] and Antony Lerman;[14] jurists including Hugh Tomlinson,[22]Stephen Sedley,[23]Geoffrey Bindman,[24] and Geoffrey Robertson;[25] and one of the original drafters Kenneth S. Stern has opposed the misuse of the definition to suppress and limit free speech.” [Wikipedia]
To intrude a personal recollection, I see there the name of Stephen Sedley [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Sedley ], former judge of the Court of Appeal, before whom I appeared as Counsel on a few occasions.
“The main drafter of the working definition and its examples, Kenneth S. Stern, cautioned against the free speech implications of its use as a legal tool.[26] He has opposed efforts to enshrine it in legislation[98] and wrote a letter to members of the US Congress warning that giving the definition legal status would be “unconstitutional and unwise” in December 2016.[99] In 2011, he co-authored an article about how the ‘Working Definition’ was being abused in Title VI cases, because it was being employed in an attempt to “restrict academic freedom and punish political speech.” In November 2017, Stern explained to the US House of Representatives that the definition has been abused on various US university campuses. He warned that it could “restrict academic freedom and punish political speech” and questioned whether definitions created by minority groups should be legislatively enshrined, giving as one of several examples.” [Wikipedia]
Jenrick has “demanded” that councils and universities “adopt” the so-called” “definition” for about 6 months now, but he is generally regarded as such a pathetic little pissant that, so far, only 136 out of 343 have caved in to his demands by agreeing to “adopt” it.
Brave universities are fighting the Jewish-Zionist lobby and its political control, and refusing to accept such limitation on freedom (which in any case has no legal effect).
Jenrick is one of the worst pro-Zionist offenders in the present appallingly pro-Israel government, along with Theresa Villiers and Priti Patel. His wife is a Jewish lawyer and their children are being brought up as Jewish, to the extent that Jenrick himself apparently celebrates Jewish religious and cultural festivals etc.
It is to be hoped that universities and local authorities fight this attempt to criminalize or simply ban free speech and historical investigation, and do not “adopt” this “definition”, and/or (even if they do “adopt” it) then simply refuse to go further to attack free speech. They should deliberately ignore it. “I see no ships…”
Jenrick is also throwing public money at “holocaust” propaganda nonsense such as trips by schools to the “reconstruction” at former Auschwitz. Brainwashing of children.
Meanwhile, in Germany…
“Jews could flee Germany on a ‘massive’ scale unless urgent action is taken against anti-Semitism, the foreign minister warned today.” [Daily Mail]
“Germany will push for tougher legal consequences for anti-Semitic acts, he said, and for more EU nations to make Holocaust denial a crime – currently illegal in over a dozen member states including Germany, Belgium and Italy.” [Daily Mail]
“Berlin will also step up the battle against anti-Jewish hate speech and disinformation on social media, Maas wrote, saying perpetrators ‘should feel the full force of the law across Europe’.” [Daily Mail]
No doubt that little pissant Jenrick would love to see all criticism of Jewish behaviour criminalized in the UK too, together with any attempt to really examine the “holocaust” farrago. Fortunately, Brexit renders such repression less likely.
What about that German minister? Until today, I knew little of him:
“In early 2017, Maas proposed the “Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz” (“network enforcement law”) to combat online hate speech and fake news.[37][38][39] The United Nations responded with a letter, warning that several democratic freedoms were under attack.[40] The proposed law was met with criticism throughout Germany from industry associations, IT experts, scientists, net-politicians, lawyers, privacy activists and civil rights campaigners who regard it as unconstitutional and defiant of EU-law and warn of “catastrophic effects for freedom of expression“, causing online platforms to drastically censor online speech, resulting in privatization of legal enforcement and abolishing online anonymity.”
“In June 2017, Maas disclosed to the Bild newspaper that he was the recent recipient of an unprecedented number of death threats including a bullet casing in the mailbox of his private residence. He attributed the threats to dissatisfaction with current German immigration policy.” [Wikipedia]
Sounds like many Germans consider Heiko Maas “unerwunscht” (unwanted)!
Musical interlude
Huawei
Apparently, some “Conservative” Party MPs are so angry about Chinese involvement in UK mobile telephone technology that they might rebel in the Commons (pointlessly). Why don’t they get angry about the Israeli interference in all areas of UK life, especially our political parties and politics generally, and about Jewish-Zionist abuse of our law?
Labour is looking less like an alternative government even than it did prior to the 2019 General Election. Under Corbyn, Labour still looked, on a rosy view, like it could actually run a government, albeit probably not very competently. Now? I think not.
Labour in late 1983 was only about 4 years out of power, still had its solid Northern English, Scottish, Welsh and other constituencies, still had the then-powerful trade unions behind it. Now? There are few solid constituencies and the unions are all but defunct.
Leadership: Corbyn was not very popular but I seriously doubt that any of the present contenders will do better; maybe Keir Starmer. Maybe.
