The Conservative Party misgovernment is more or less at an end now. The next battle will soon start, the battle against the overall “woke” nonsense going to be spearheaded by the Labour Party in government: “trans” nonsense, multikulti nonsense, migration-invasion, Israel/Jewish lobbyism and, encompassing all of those and more, the attack on free speech and freedom of expression.

Blowback is a great podcast on the Iraq War.
“The invasion of Iraq in 2003 constitutes the greatest crime of the 21st century. The war killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, and the country plunged into a cycle of violence and misery that endures today.”…
A reminder that, in international affairs, there is sometimes no “good” option but only “bad” or “worse” options. Sometimes the “least worst” option is also the (relative) “best” at that particular time.
In the example, leaving a terrible tyrant like Saddam Hussein in place might be “bad” (arguably) but deposing him, destroying Iraq, and further destabilizing the region, thus also causing millions to flee westward, might be described as “worse” or even “worst”.

So we are asked to believe that two Reform UK GE 2024 candidates have only just discovered, in the latest case two days before the General Election, that they disagree with their Reform UK colleagues or ex-colleagues?
To me this looks like a set-up, maybe co-ordinated, maybe not.
The latest defector is one Georgie David. I wonder what her provenance might be. She does not look very European in the Sky News photo.
If those two candidates really are against the UK being mainly white Northern European etc, how stupid must they be to have joined with Reform UK in the first place? I might add that the pair are, obviously, though in a minor sense, “traitor” types by nature, to defect like that only days before the “off” (to put it in racing terms).
I doubt that the defections will have any effect on the General Election. In fact, I doubt that the barrage of anti-Reform propaganda being put out by the Conservative Party will do more than perhaps dent a little the Reform UK vote. Even if it did, it would not help the Con Party; any Reform-leaning voters in doubt would not vote Con anyway, but more likely abstain.

I remember Obama visiting downing street just a couple of days before he announced the election. I think sunak was ordered by the Davos lot to hold an election, get there man starmer in so we can have a war in Ukraine. The chess pieces are being moved into their final position.
Likewise, I happened to be in Qatar for a few days in early 2001. On leaving from the old (now replaced) Doha Airport, I was just being driven to the steps of my plane in a limousine when I noticed that Air Force Two (with Colin Powell on board, as I later discovered, though probably not aboard at that exact moment), was parked right next to it. In retrospect, part of the diplomatic build-up to the invasion of Iraq which occurred 2 years later.
There are always small events, and there is always chatter, before larger events occur. One reason why it is so suspicious that the Israelis claim that the events near Gaza in early October 2023 came as a complete surprise to them.

The only two where the range is relatively unimportant are Labour, which is (however unmeritoriously) on track for a massive win, it seems, and the LibDems, who seem likely to do modestly well or quite well purely by default, by being the “dustbin” or “tactical vote” choice.
All the rest? Either getting a bloc of significance, or almost nothing. Even the Con result will be very different on 34 MPs (a near wipeout) compared to 99 MPs (very poor but still just about in the game).
Last week Starmer said, “Handouts offer less dignity to people than earning a living through work.” The same Starmer has accepted £76,000 of handouts including concerts, parties, sport games, hotel stays and clothing. https://t.co/oNsXDQWteY

Many readers will be aware that I was put on trial in November 2023 for having supposedly published 5 “grossly offensive” items on this blog; 5 items within 5 pages (5 days’ posts). 5 blog posts out of, at the time, about 1,700. I was sentenced in March 2024.
The background of that is known to some but not all readers. I therefore offer the following blog pages as explanation (obviously, I cannot republish or link to the 5 blog posts which were determined by the Court to have been, or to have contained material, “grossly offensive“, so here are 5 others).
I should add that, while 5 blog posts were determined, in the magistrates’ court, to have contained “grossly offensive” material (in fact, in my opinion, largely innocuous comments and cartoons), the material in question was tiny in amount, about 2% of each blog post, if that. In fact, only a few sentences allegedly written by me were specifically mentioned in the judgment.
As previously mentioned on the blog, I am perforce far more diplomatic now on the blog than I was a few years ago, but how sad it is that this country that, arguably more than any other bar the USA, championed free speech for so long, should fall victim to this kind of sub-“Stasi“, poundshop KGB-ism, with the Clown Prosecution Service and police falling over themselves to placate the Israel lobby.
Labour leader Keir Flip-flop (Starmer) is the personification of the Norman Wisdom character, the clueless teaboy or whatever, who suddenly wins the lottery (or, in those 1950s days, the football pools). Starmer is about to become an “elected” dictator, despite most people despising, disliking or distrusting him.
Look, though, at what the Conservative Party now is. We are told that, if they survive the election, the leading contenders for the leadership position will probably be Kemi Badenoch (Nigerian), Priti Patel (East African Asian, and Israeli agent), James Cleverly (half-caste West Indian/British), and Suella Braverman (Mauritian Indian). All members of Conservative Friends of Israel, too.
Need one even comment?
[Update, 1 December 2024: Erratum— James Cleverly’s father was African, not (as I said, mistakenly) West Indian].
We are told, also, that the polls say that 20% of eligible voters have not even decided whether they will vote at all, and are also undecided as to which way they might cast their votes if they do vote. Do we take it that many of those will simply abstain? Will they vote simply as protest? Uncertain.
It could just be that those “undecideds” will vote, will want to vote as protest, and so will mostly vote Reform UK. Were that to happen, it really would put the cat among the pigeons.
The fact is that the Conservatives are in deep trouble anyway, that the mere existence of Reform UK has deepened that existing trouble, and that, even at a nationwide 15%-19% (as per recent polls), Reform UK, while perhaps only getting a few seats, would spell doom for the Conservative Party. Which is why the msm is now going crazy trying to demonize Farage and his latest party.
If Reform UK actually scores above 20%, then game on. If the existing ~18% is boosted by another 5 or 10 points, then UK politics will have received a meteorite hit, and will never be the same again. Were Reform UK to get 28% of the national vote, that might mean 80-90 Commons seats, and Reform UK would be the official Opposition.
That may seem impossible or crazy, and it may not happen, but the exciting thing is that it actually could happen. You cannot compare Reform UK in 2024 to Brexit Party in 2019, or UKIP in 2015.
This time, the Cons are going to go down really badly. More importantly, there is a perception this time that to vote Reform UK is not a mere protest vote, but a protest vote that really could accomplish something concrete— the utter destruction of the Conservative Party for a start.
I do not know whether Reform UK will manage to get beyond its present 15%-19% range, and/or get as high as 28%, but it just might.

Not that I approve of everything Putin has done within Russia itself, and Russian society still does not have an ideology capable of consigning to the past Western finance-capitalism, the mainly Jewish (but also Russian-criminal) “bandit capitalism” of the past 30+ years, and the former harsh Marxist-Leninist ethos, out of which the “bandit capitalism” emerged.
Still, as a transitional but very significant political power-holder, Putin must be supported as far as necessary, as a bulwark against various poisonous and contending elements in the world.

The policy is working so well as a deterrent that, even in the past couple of days, about 2,000 more migrant-invaders have entered the UK via the English Channel, ferried in by the RNLI and Border Farce.
All the System parties talk about “smuggling gangs”, but the smugglers could, in principle, be dealt with easily enough by special forces undercover. Dealt with. Just dealt with. The necessity is to deter or stop the migrant-invaders themselves, to close down the “small boats” cross-Channel route, and to protect both our borders and the future of our people.
#BBCLauraK Laura Kuenssberg failed to mention Craig Williams mate of RISHI SUNAK admitted to Betting 1OO quid on the Date of the Election He is allowing him still to stand as a Candidate HOW SHOCKING pic.twitter.com/KVRqfG6Cna
Not a very impressive candidate anyway: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Williams_(British_politician). 39 years old. His only non-political job was as a director of Cardiff Bus, a municipal bus service company owned by Cardiff Council; Williams was a councillor and on the relevant Council committee at the time. What a boondoggle.
Williams has been an MP since 2015, but lost his previous seat to Labour in 2017 and was then elected for another constituency in 2019. That constituency has now been abolished, and redrawn into the new constituency of Montgomeryshire and Glyndŵr.
On the previous boundaries, the area was quite solidly LibDem until 2010, when the egregious Lembit Opik managed to ruin his political career by making plainly freeloading expenses claims and by playing around with young Romanian pop singers called the Cheeky Girls: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lembit_%C3%96pik.
While one might have expected Williams to continue the run of Conservative Party successes in the now-redrawn seat, the plunging popularity of the party, combined with Williams having tried to make an illicit profit by betting on the election date while obviously having inside information, may make him unelectable. We shall see.
The new constituency is being contested by Con, Lab, LibDem, Green, Plaid Cymru and, perhaps most interestingly, Reform UK.
Obviously, I have no idea how Reform UK will perform, and it may be that the LibDems have the best chance of getting rid of Williams, but if (a big if, as they say), Reform were to take half of the otherwise Con vote, then either Reform or the LibDems might succeed.
On the wider point, had something like this betting scandal occurred in, say, 1994, or 1984, let alone 1974 or 1964, the person implicated would have been expected to step down either as candidate or, later, as MP (if re-elected). The slide in integrity and honour in British politics is palpable. The bastard seems to be intent on riding it out, and hoping to get away with it.

#bbcqt Tim Montgomerie – 'I'm a Conservative and the water companies should be nationalised…but only for a short time, and then they should be resold' Yes, nationalised just long enough for the debts to be socialised and paid for by the public, eh Tim?
As long as I have been aware of his existence, from about 2010, Tim Montgomerie has been writing almost total nonsense about what should be UK government policy. He is, like oily Fraser Nelson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraser_Nelson] often said to be some kind of “senior commentator”. Ludicrous.
People such as Montgomerie, with only (what to me seems) a tenuous grip on the reality of social issues, should never hold power or exert more than the most peripheral influence, because what seems fine in the ivory tower often causes mayhem on the streets.

Rishi Sunak's ONLY chance is to throw absolutely everything he has at winning back the 40%+ 2019 Tories who have defected to Reform or abandoned politics altogether and who prioritise, above all, Stopping the Boats. My latest in the @DailyMailUKhttps://t.co/5ZW9n68LbB
Matt Goodwin says that the only way for Sunak to mitigate the unfolding electoral picture is to “throw everything” at the 30%-40% of 2019 Con voters, who intend to either abstain from the General Election or to vote Reform UK, and whose top issue now is “stopping the boats“.
Well, stopping the most obvious aspect of the migration invasion is important, but those “small boats” are not even 5% of the problem. About 50,000 individuals a year out of about a million in toto. Are those 2019 Con voters who are presently disenchanted, and who are spoken about by Goodwin, really that stupid? I do not know. Maybe; maybe not.
Thinking about it, though, what is meant by “throwing everything” at the cross-Channel invasion? Immediately arresting and detaining all such invaders? That is more or less what is being done, albeit in a “velvet glove” way.
So, yes, the invaders could be held in harsher, more restrictive conditions, not allowed to wander around (though how? Not give them money? Not allow them telephones or Internet access? Take away their shoes?). Difficult unless all are held in remote camps.
Even such measures, however, though they might be popular, would not solve the problem of the —on average— hundreds per day landing or being landed (often by UK Border “Farce“, RNLI or Royal Navy ships and boats) on our shores.
Would Sunak really sink the boats in mid-Channel? Will Sunak have the invaders fired upon? Of course not. So the actual flow, even of the outright “small boat” invaders, is not going to be stopped by Sunak.
What is left is words, empty words. As in “if you vote Conservative, we promise to do something to stop the boats…sometime after the Election…“
Not at all convincing.

Whatever the details of Starmer’s background and family (which he may have finessed for political reasons), it is clear from polling that he is not considered very suitable to be Prime Minister by most people. Having said that, he is beating Sunak by miles. The little Indian money-juggler is about to become an ex-Prime Minister, and he is taking most of his MPs with him.
I suppose that Sunak wanted to showcase “regeneration”, but could he not see that the name “Titanic” is mainly associated with the (sinking) ship of that name? Are the people around Sunak also so unaware that they missed how this looks, at this time, and as Sunak’s premiership sinks below the waves?
Actually, remembering those “special adviser” SpAd idiots drunkenly “dancing” at Downing Street when “Boris” (chief idiot) was PM, maybe it is not so surprising.

“HEART specialist waiting lists are up by 75 per cent, according to NHS figures.
Health authorities have admitted that mRNA jabs can cause potentially fatal heart issues, and published post-mortems have recorded heart-related vaccine deaths.
Despite this, not one mainstream news outlet has looked at the role covid vaccinations could have played in the huge increase in heart problems. Instead, our health watchdog, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), continues to call vaccine-induced myocarditis and pericarditis ‘rare’, despite admitting a 90 per cent under-reporting rate (it could be as high as 99 per cent), and continues to blame SARS-CoV-2 infection.
This is a disingenuous assessment, according to top US cardiologist and epidemiologist Peter McCullough.”

An important speech which challenges the current global dogma on immigration. In sharing such a video, one cannot avoid being criticized but I share it nonetheless for it makes a powerful case against accepting an unlimited number of migrants into a host country.
I was unaware that Amsterdam is now 56% migrant. That figure does not even include all migrants who arrived over the past 50 years, or their offspring.
Very sad. When I first and briefly visited the Netherlands, aged maybe 8, in 1964 or 1965, there were no migrants, effectively.
When I returned alone, in 1975, aged 18, there were few. Later, on trips in the 1980s, Dutch friends of my family were complaining about the behaviour of the few (I think Turks, or possibly others from Turkey) who had somehow moved to their part of Amsterdam (a relatively-new suburb in or by North Amsterdam, Amsterdam-Noord): thefts of bicycles, littering etc— maybe “petty”, but already slowly changing their decent (and fairly new) neighbourhood into a declining and less pleasant one.
My last visit to the Netherlands, other than using Schiphol airport a number of times, was in the mid-1980s. More recently, I heard from Dutch friends how things had changed, and not for the better. Drugs, crime generally, an immigrant takeover in some parts of the city etc. This all co-incided with economic problems, housing shortages (mass immigration again), considerable job insecurity, and a general cultural decline.
Sad.
As with the Swedes, the Dutch made the mistake of allowing decent tolerance to become indecent licence, and of allowing a kind welcome for a few non-Europeans to become an open invitation for any and all, millions of them.
Britain made, and is still making, the same or similar mistakes, and is also indoctrinating its young people with the same pathetic and weak pseudo-ideology that is eroding white Europe from within.
Incidentally, I just saw this, about WW2 bombing of Amsterdam-Noord:
The Fokker factories were the 17 July 1943 bombings’ goal, but the bombs of the United States Army Air Forces fell on the surrounding residential areas, causing 158 deaths and 119 seriously injured as a result.
The British’ Royal Air Force and Free French Air Forces both did another attempt to bomb the factory on 25 and 28 July, resulting in the death of 200 citizens in total by the three raids.[2]
Only the British Forces managed to bomb the targeted airplane factory, all other bombs fell on residential areas in Amsterdam-Noord. This is the heaviest air bombardment that ever hit Amsterdam. 106 houses were destroyed, 206 houses heavily damaged and 676 houses suffered glass and roof damage. Every year a memorial ceremony takes place on 17 July at De Nieuwe Noorder cemetery.”

Well, this week I merely equalled John Rentoul’s 5/10. I knew the answers to questions 1, 3, 7, 8, and 9. I was unsure about questions 4, 5, 6, and 10, and had no idea at all about question 2.
“A fellow at the University of Cambridge who has sparked backlash with his comments on race has been dropped by Emmanuel College where he was a research associate.
Nathan Cofnas, an early career research fellow in the Faculty of Philosophy, is understood to have had his relationship with the college ended following an investigation into his conduct.
Mr Cofnas came under fire in February after he published a blog post which claimed the number of black professors at Harvard would ‘approach zero’ in a meritocracy, and that ‘Blacks would disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.’
He also dismissed equality between people of different ethnicities as a ‘thesis’ that is ‘based on lies’.
Mr Cofnas, who describes himself as a ‘race-realist’, is understood to have been informed of the college’s decision by letter on April 5, which stated his posts were in violation of its diversity and inclusion policies.
Last month, the first black man to ever be appointed to the head of a Cambridge College, Lord Simon Woolley, principal of Homerton College, held an event with students and the master of Emmanuel Doug Chalmers to discuss their concerns.
Lord Woolley, who was previously appointed by then-Prime Minister Theresa May to head the UK Government’s Race Disparity Unit, told the assembled students that free speech must be protected, but this did not extend to ‘abhorrent racism’.
Emmanuel’s Master Mr Chalmers had initially backed Mr Cofnas’ right to freedom of speech, but the college soon launched an investigation, alongside other probes by the University and the Leverhulme Trust, which provided him with a research grant.”
So the “diversity hire” has no understanding of the concept of free speech, or the concept of academic freedom, yet has been appointed principal of a Cambridge University college…

The little Indian money-juggler is trying to ape the vulgar and unpleasant attacks on the sick, disabled, and unemployed that characterized the 2010-2015 government of Cameron-Levita, Osborne, and Dunce Duncan Smith.
If Sunak thinks that this tired and derivative form of “gutter politics” will fly, he is very mistaken. I was looking at the “Readers’ Comments” in the Daily Mail on this. Only about 1% support the policy and/or think that it will ever be possible (or desirable) to implement it.
We read that there is currently an “epidemic of shoplifting“. What does Sunak imagine will be the result of cutting off the last peanuts lifeline to people, leaving them totally desperate, destitute, homeless etc?
If Sunak and the Conservative Party are trying to improve their electoral chances by this, they are in cloud-cuckoo land. The only people who will be impressed will be the hard core of unthinking Con voters aged 60+, and they will vote Con anyway.
Of course, none of the announced policies will be implemented, or implementable, prior to the General Election. The question therefore devolves to the response from Starmer and Rachel Reeves etc, who will probably be forming the next government. If they follow in Sunak’s footsteps, there could be something akin to an uprising eventually; certainly social upheaval.
Bismarck introduced the skeleton of a Welfare State in Germany 150 years ago, not because the Iron Chancellor was soft, or very kind-hearted, but because he wanted to divert any revolutionary sentiment in the masses. Looks like the UK’s pygmy politicos are going the other way.
He and his ilk have also overseen mass immigration that has stifled growth in pay, exported goods jobs, pushed accommodation, health etc costs through the roof and massively increased taxes etc making many feel little or no benefit from actually working/striving for success.

They also claim they will replicate ‘this all across the country’ until the government answers their demands on food security, The Telegraph reported.
Everybody Eats claimed that food banks were aware that the goods were stolen and suggested its members had been asked to help.“

Now, more information. Seems that the egregious Israel-based Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis, was involved (I was unaware of that until today, though did wonder when I saw a few tweets in the past week). He has messed up…again.
It seems Mr Lewis thought Mr Cantor had no assets and had financial immunity for my costs even if he lost.
The “misunderstanding” is catastrophic for Mr Cantor and his family because he must sell his house to pay my costs.
My opinion is that Mr Lewis should pay the costs! 2/2.
Lewis is actually a pretty poor lawyer anyway in my opinion (based partly on what I have read about him over the years), and he has in the past admitted that at times — apparently by reason of his prescribed medications, in part— he has, or has had, no idea of what he is or was doing.
Looks now as if that Cantor individual (of whom I know nothing, and of whom I had never heard until this case finished recently) will or might have to take legal action against Lewis himself if he is not to become homeless after his failed attempt to ruin a university academic. What a great pity…
It is not for me to pronounce on whether Lewis was negligent and/or dishonest in this particular case, but (once again) it seems that he has, shall we say, “questions to answer”.
Lewis, though now based in Israel, has a foothold in the UK as “partner” of a small law firm in West London.
Lewis is basically a self-publicist: see my previous (years ago) blog mentions of him.
That blog post contains links which detail many (though I think not all) of Lewis’s defaults.
There is a notorious Jew-Zionist cabal on Twitter/X, and in the UK mass media, which has been determined for years to present Lewis to a gullible Press readership, TV-watching public etc as “hot shot lawyer”, or (as often described) “top lawyer“.
The fact is that, when Lewis finally left the UK for Israel (to live in Israel) about 5 years ago, his own Counsel said (at his “trial” before a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal in London, at which Lewis was found guilty of having posted savagely violent social media posts) that Lewis had “no assets” except his own clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 a week. Even his car was being provided to him by the State disability benefit service, Motability.
Oddly (not), Lewis’s appearance before, and “conviction” by, the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal was not covered at all by the “occupied” UK msm, and only briefly by a few law magazines…
More:
Wow! Mark Lewis acted for Daniel Miller and Nina Power against Luke Turner. Lewis’ clients lost in spectacular fashion. Mr Miller is now bankrupt. I am not sure about Ms Power.
It is awful the same will happen to Mr Mendelsohn and Mr Cantor!
Seems that James Wilson is, on the face of it, a little too kind. Those Jew-Zionist fanatics (the defendants Cantor and Mendelsohn, whoever they are —I had heard of the unpleasant Newbon) were, after all, quite willing to ruin Mr. Wilson if they could.
As for Lewis, he is, in my opinion, repeatedly unprofessional, quite apart from, also in my opinion, being very far from as effective as his fellow-fanatics try to make him appear.
Lewis’s Third Witness Statementsays it— he “misunderstood“…
Mr Cantor was on a CFA with Mr Lewis, so if he settled with me for nominal damages and zero costs, he had to pay me almost nothing and his solicitor absoutely nothing.
Why would he have rejected this settlement in principle?
Lewis is no better than an “ambulance-chaser”, in my opinion.
For context. Mr Lewis referred to me as £19 Wilson because my maximum cost was £19/hour whereas his was £600/hour. And the Defendants – or perhaps Mr Lewis – refused mediation for two years until they lost the strike out application.
I keep seeing on Twitter/X that Lewis must be a great defamation lawyer because he “won when representing ‘Jack Monroe’ against Katie Hopkins, who lost and had to sell her house.”
True, Katie Hopkins did lose that case, and did have to sell her house to pay the legal costs supposedly incurred by that fraudulent purveyor of 10p-a-dinner swill, “Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas, before she changed her name).
What that story leaves out is that, firstly, Katie Hopkins was either badly advised or, as I believe was the case, not advised at all; she had no lawyers, and so persisted with a defence which was bound to fail. She never stood a chance, but her pride got in the way.
As for Lewis, a child could have won that case against Katie Hopkins.
So Lewis was trying to blag £600 an hour for his most recent defective advice? Well, he will get nothing now (again); he will have to keep the lights switched off in his flat in Eilat, and “collect the pennies on the empties”, as people used to say.
Unfortunately this is necessary because I am dealing with unreasonable people. This message shows Pete Newbon’s total faith in Mark Lewis (@MLewisLawyer) of Patron Law (@LawPatron) to look after him in the litigation. Pete guessed he had to trust Mark Lewis. pic.twitter.com/6uNzvceSj4
Typical Lewis: tries to intimidate people who have no assets beyond (perhaps) a residential property; they, he hopes, will settle and, crucially, pay supposed “costs” to Lewis, who then gets money without having had to win at trial.
The defamation case won by James Wilson, included references in the court judgment that Rachel Riley had promoted the crowdfunder by the defendant (who’d committed the libel) to employ lawyer Mark Lewis.

Lewis should be (at long last) struck off the solicitors’ roll; as for Myerson, the matter should be placed before the Bar Standards Board. I hope that Mr. Wilson complains formally to the BSB about him. In the meantime, Myerson should not be permitted to sit as a Recorder (if he still is so permitted after his previous defaults).
Yet another instance of Lewis having been, if not dishonest (?), then certainly negligent. That, at least, was the view of yet another High Court judge.
The world has had capitalist societies, socialist societies, feudal societies etc, but now, in the UK, has emerged a new form of society— the permanently “offended” society of fake “diversity”.
Most of the faked “offence” is taken by “the usual suspects”, of course.
The Daily Mail and Jewish/Zionist so-called “charities” (including the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) are whining because someone convicted (on evidence that would have shamed the Star Chamber) in 2018, and then sentenced to 6.5 years, is being released a few months before the end of his full term expires.
Most prisoners are released at, or even before, the halfway point. In this case, that would have meant release in 2021, three years ago.
I hope that the State will not be so cruel as to deny the young couple the right to have their child returned to them. To do that would be absolutely evil.
If the newspaper report (penned by one Iwan Stone, incidentally) is correct, the couple intend to live in Portugal when they can. Good luck to them as they move on from all of this.
Have they not suffered enough?

No matter how much money the U.S. Government sends to the Kiev regime, no matter even how much armament and ammunition is sent, the Kiev regime cannot “win”, even to the extent of occupying the Donbass and Crimea.
The Kiev regime army is flagging as many desert the field, and many more avoid conscription. To be recruited by the Kiev regime army is to be sent to quite likely death or life-changing injury on the front-lines, which are now starting to collapse.
Ukraine is producing few children, and a quarter or more of its pre-2022 population is living outside Ukraine. If American and EU aid stopped, there would be no fighting within a few weeks, followed by either a negotiated armistice or Russian victory. As it is, it looks as though this brutal war will smoulder on for months, maybe even a year or two.
In the end, though, Russia will “win”, in the sense of taking over all of Eastern Ukraine, and possibly the coast as far as, and maybe beyond, Odessa.
I watched a few minutes of a very biased BBC World News report about the war. The reporter, some bearded fellow whose name I did not catch, did say something about why Ukrainians try to avoid fighting. Apart from the obvious dangers, open-ended service (no way of getting out) and poor conditions generally.
What, however, made the report farcical was said reporter’s then assertion that Ukraine is a “genuine democracy“. Hardy ha ha… A “genuine democracy” that now refuses to hold elections, has banned trade unions, which press-gangs people up to age 60 and beyond to serve as cannon-fodder on the collapsing front-lines, and which shoots dissidents, or holds them without trial in unpleasant camps and prisons.

“University lecturer James Wilson has been awarded £30,000 in damages against James Mendelsohn and Edward Cantor for defamatory material published about him during an argument about supposed antisemitism in the Labour party. The false claim, that Mr Wilson was a ‘freak [who] takes pictures of kids’, put Mr Wilson and his partner in fear of physical danger, as well as seriously damaging his reputation. The judge had previously rejected an attempt by Mendelsohn and Cantor to quash the lawsuit.
University lecturer James Wilson has been awarded £30,000 in damages against James Mendelsohn and Edward Cantor for defamatory material published about him during an argument about supposed antisemitism in the Labour party. The false claim, that Mr Wilson was a ‘freak [who] takes pictures of kids’, put Mr Wilson and his partner in fear of physical danger, as well as seriously damaging his reputation. The judge had previously rejected an attempt by Mendelsohn and Cantor to quash the lawsuit.
The judgement lays bare that:
Mendelsohn and Cantor kept private information and recycled it to the late Dr Pete Newbon – a director of the anti-left group ‘Labour against Antisemitism’ (LAAS), so that he could use it to defame Wilson – the information was untrue and based a) on statements from someone the judge found to have lied about Wilson and b) on false claims about a university disciplinary investigation. Newbon was described by the judge as ‘bullying’
Mendelsohn and Cantor refused to apologise, mediate or settle, forcing the legal action to proceed to its conclusion
a key witness for the defendants said that she had been offered £5,000 by Mendelsohn and Cantor to testify for them (though the judge did not make a finding that her claim was true)
the defendants further abused and insulted Wilson in the course of their defence – despite, in the case of Cantor, being warned by the judge not to do so.
The defendants – who represented themselves in court apart from the use of a barrister to cross-examine Wilson – wheeled out a number of figures who are well known for their attacks on the left in an attempt to shore up their defence. The judge dismissed them.
University lecturer David Hirsh, a prominent, pro-Israel proponent of supposed ‘left antisemitism’, who wrote an unintentionally revealing elegy to Pete Newbon after his suicide. Hirsh was called to bolster the defendants’ claim that Wilson had shown ‘unwarrantedly aggressive and belligerent conduct’. The judge rejected Hirsh’s evidence that Wilson was ‘aggressive, unpredictable, persistent and irrational’ and found that Wilson’s communications with him over the spreading of a crowdfund for the defendants’ legal costs were ‘not unreasonable’
Nathan Comiskey, another advocate of ‘left antisemitism’, who claimed that Wilson contacting him about insulting remarks was ‘highly intrusive and upsetting’ and that he had felt ‘harassed and targeted’. The judge ruled that there was nothing unreasonable in Wilson’s communications and that Comiskey’s testimony did nothing to support the defendants’ claims about supposed unwarranted aggression or belligerence
Simon Myerson – a founding signatory of LAAS and supporter of Israel, and a part-time judge recently sanctioned for judicial misconduct for abusive social media posts. Myerson was also a vocal supporter of Newbon, trying to link Jewish author Michael Rosen to Newbon’s suicide, despite a coroner not mentioning Rosen at all in his inquest findings. Mendelsohn and Cantor put forward Wilson’s communications with Myerson, who had shared a post describing Wilson as ‘scum of the earth’, as evidence to support their claim of aggressive behaviour. The judge ruled that it did nothing of the sort
Joanne Bell and journalist Adam Cailler – more well-known anti-left activists whose correspondence with Wilson was put forward by the defence as supporting evidence. The judge ruled, “I can find nothing in the emails which is particularly aggressive or which points to conduct of the kind said to demonstrate the pleaded propensity [to aggression]”.
[Skwawkbox]
[quaere: surely Skwawkbox meant to print that Hirsch is an “opponent” of “left antisemitism“? I suppose they meant that he is a proponent of the concept].
“The usual suspects”, or some of them. Most of the above have, in the past, tweeted about me.
The Jew barrister and now (if he is still allowed to sit) Recorder, Myerson, should be removed from any judicial or quasi-judicial positions. He was repeatedly vituperative about me on Twitter in the past, dozens of times. A pro-Israel fanatic, hypocrite, and liar; and that is only what is plain from his own tweets.
I was unaware that Myerson has already been sanctioned by the authorities for unethical conduct. Boot him out.
Most if not all of those mentioned above are also supporters of the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which was behind the recent (2023) prosecution of me, via the suborned police and “Clown” Prosecution Service, and under the notorious “bad law” of the Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).
Incidentally, I have just looked at Myerson’s Twitter/X account for the first time in many months. He has tweeted at least 20 times already today (though nothing about his above embarrassments), and it is only 1400 hrs. He must be busy…
[Update, 3 August 2024: Myerson was removed as a Recorder (p/t judge) in early July, though he was allowed to pretend that he had “resigned”].
Very diplomatic. Very “Christian”, really; almost too nice to the above tribe that set upon him like a pack of hyenas. Dr. Wilson is, after his victory, “turning the other cheek” in a way, but do not forget that other Biblical injunction— “do not give that which is holy to the dogs, lest they turn and rend you“.

The rate of increase of the world population, so marked in the 19th and 20th centuries, has slowed to an effective halt. The above graphic shows that the fall in fertility and births is not confined to Europe.
Only in Africa, and a few parts of Asia (notably, Pakistan), are populations much increasing via births.
In the UK, the large increase in population over the past half-century has been (especially in the past 30 years) almost entirely by reason of unwanted mass immigration, much of it from Pakistan and other “brown/black” countries, and births to immigrants. Migration invasion.

“Ukraine ignores US warnings to stop flights drones on Russian territory” The United States fears retaliatory strikes from Russia, but Kyiv is ignoring warnings from the United States to stop striking the Russian Federation, The Economist reports.
The US is concerned about rising oil prices, possible retaliatory strikes and an uncontrolled confrontation that could put Kyiv at a disadvantage. Serious concerns grew in late March when Russia caused major damage to Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. The attacks exposed gaps in air defense systems and vulnerability to the new Russian low-altitude cruise missile Kh-69, which destroyed the Trypillya Thermal Power Plant despite being within range of the Patriot air defense systems.”

“Ukrainians view the West’s promises to support Kiev “as long as necessary” as an empty story, Politiko writes. ” Due to the weakening of Western support, Ukraine is experiencing an acute shortage not only of weapons and men, but also of the fighting spirit of the soldiers. Neither the population, nor the soldiers, nor their leadership anymore believe in the victory of Kiev. Russian leader Vladimir Putin may never have been closer to his goal “, the paper writes.”
The Western states may supply arms and ammunition but cannot supply fighting soldiers. The Kiev regime is running out of soldiers, and new recruits. It can only be a matter of time before there is a general advance of Russian forces across both Eastern Ukraine and the Black Sea littoral towards Odessa.
“A barrister who was jailed for asking clients to sell him drugs has failed in a bid to overturn his 14-month prison sentence.
Henry Hendron, 42, sent messages asking for help with drugs supply, after meeting the men through his work as a criminal lawyer.
Delivering the ruling, Recorder of Sheffield Judge Jeremy Richardson, sitting with Lord Justice William Davis and Mr Justice Calver, said Hendron’s case is “unique” and added: “It is to be hoped that remains the case.”
Dismissing the appeal, the judges concluded: “The sentence here is not excessive, still less manifestly excessive in all the circumstances.”
Hendron had built up a profile as a barrister to the stars, with prominent clients including the Earl of Cardigan and Tory MP Nadine Dorries.
But Hendron’s career floundered after his 18-year-old boyfriend Miguel Jimenez was found dead at the flat the couple shared in Pump Court, Temple, in the City of London, after taking a lethal cocktail of so-called chemsex party drugs.
He admitted buying £1,000 worth of M-cat or Meow Meow and GBL from award-winning former BBC producer Alex Parkin and was handed a community order with 140 hours of unpaid work at the Old Bailey in 2016.
The Court of Appeal noted that Hendron had not been disbarred after that conviction, noting “unusual and very serious” feature of his case.
He was suspended by the Bar Standards Board for three years following his 2016 convictions.
He was reprimanded and prohibited from undertaking public access work for two years following a disciplinary hearing in 2021 after holding himself out as a barrister on websites while suspended.“
In that blog post, I speculated as to whether Hendron knew something discreditable about senior figures or, perhaps, was being treated leniently by reason of some other kind. I am still none the wiser on that, however.
It seems, on the face of that Evening Standard report, though, that Hendron is still not disbarred. Curiouser and curiouser.

“My friend grew up in New England where they have pigeons. Apparently they also hate them. He was always saying bad things about pigeons until I pointed something out that he never thought of before: We domesticated pigeons. They are (nearly) all over the world because HUMANS BROUGHT THEM THERE. And, they were more than pets. They carried messages. People raced them. They lived spoiled lives as honored human companions for centuries. Then we got telephones and we threw them out like trash. Literally, we threw them away. Their species had already been fully domesticated and they could not survive in the wild; they lost all their survival instincts during the centuries that they lived caged by people. That is why they live in cities with people instead of in a forest somewhere. It’s OUR fault. And not only did we throw them away, but now humans curse them as “winged rats;” casting them as pests. But they don’t know how to live without us, and their instincts tell us that they should trust us. So, they continue to come up to humans and beg for food, because it’s the only survival skill left in their genes. They love us because they were bred by us to feel that way, and yet we hate them.”
Good points. Urban pigeons can be a nuisance, true, but they also clear up rubbish people throw away or drop in the streets, like crisps and chips. In the end, they are God’s creatures.

Uncharted waters. Trump is on trial on serious Federal charges, yet seems likely to win the 2024 Election. I suppose that, if elected, and also convicted, he can pardon himself! Not a mere jest; it is a long time since I passed an exam in U.S. Constitutional Law (1991 or 1992), and that topic was not on the paper (needless to add), but I think that there would be nothing to prevent Trump at least purporting to pardon himself (and/or those involved in the events at the Capitol several years ago).

If you can't see what I mean by #UKSR, note that Harry Cole, Chris Mason and Laura Kuennsberg are considered to be 'top journalists' and Liz Truss a 'top politician'.
A place where truth is dead, nothing is working, politics is a rigged game, everyone can see it, yet are numbed.
A much-overworked word, “top”, as shown in that tweet. Likewise, barristers and other lawyers are often (and usually wrongly) described as “top“; as in “top lawyer Mark Lewis“, which years ago was used re. Mark Lewis, the Jewish Zionist solicitor briefly well-known a decade or more ago during the “phonehacking” affair, who fled to Israel several years ago following his “conviction” by a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal for having posted some violently insulting social media posts.
Despite Lewis having been described for several years as “top lawyer” by various msm outlets, Lewis’s own Counsel at that Tribunal hearing said that Lewis owned only his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 per week.
Moral of the story? Never trust the msm.
If anyone wants to read more about Lewis, use the search box on the blog.
The flip-side of “top” may be “disgraced“, as (again, wrongly) used about me by “the usual suspects” and their scribbler dupes in the msm; in my case by reason of my (wrongful and unlawful) disbarment in 2016 and my recent conviction for having allegedly posted [the truth] on this blog.
“Top“, in that sense, is what might be called “Sun-speak”, used in tabloid “newspapers” but rarely in real life, along with “scorcher“, “fury“, “tot” (for a small child, not a small drink of spirits), and”far-right” (social-national) etc.

What Gullis prefers not to understand is that people are voting, or intending to vote, Reform UK not because they expect their candidates, most of them, to win Commons seats or other elected positions (beyond local council level), but precisely because they know that voting Reform UK will hole the Conservative ship below the waterline, and sink it, along with the Conservative candidates.
Those voting Reform UK want to punish the existing government of clowns, even at the expense of inviting into government another bunch of clowns possibly even more toxic.
Polls show that almost all Reform UK voters believe that Reform UK will win few seats; even in their own constituencies where they vote, most (60%) do not believe that the Reform candidate will win.
What those voters are doing is making a protest vote against the whole rigged Westminster system, FPTP etc; they are also punishing the Conservative Party for being so useless generally, and especially on immigration and migration invasion, on law and order, and on things like NHS services. They are passing judgment on the Conservative Party, as well as saying “we want and deserve better” and “we want our country back” (which latter may or may not be possible now).
Reform UK voters, most of them, would never vote directly for Labour, not even tactically, but are going to steel themselves to vote Reform UK knowing that Labour victories, and some LibDem victories, will be the result. If Reform UK wins a few Commons seats, then (for those voters) that would be a bonus.
An appeal such as that by Gullis probably encourages Reform UK intending voters to stick to their guns.
[Update, 15 May 2024: Well, Gullis has now had his answer— Labour won that mayoral election, if only “by a neck, cleverly”, as they say on the racecourse. Labour 37.8%, Conservative 37.5%, Independent 11.7%, Reform UK 5.8%, and Greens 5.2%. The Con candidate would probably have won if Reform UK did not exist; most Reform UK voters would have voted Con, were the present Government not so utterly useless. There were few votes separating Con and Lab— 1,508 votes, in fact. The Reform UK candidate attracted 34,471 votes… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_West_Midlands_mayoral_election].
Most Britons think another world war is likely within the next 5-10 years
The result of constant msm propaganda. There is no reason for there to be a Third World War because of either the Ukraine situation or that in and around Israel, but certain groups in the West, mainly, are pushing for war.

Well, it could not be more clear what (((group))) is pulling Starmer’s strings. Everything about him, his political life, his personal life etc, makes that very clear. Putting it clearly, Starmer is a puppet.

It’s almost impossible in the Western World to not interact with some form of AI every single day.
Is that healthy?
What impact is that having on society?
What is AI and the smart grid and what does it mean for you?
I once (about 1980) read an unpublished typescript in a dusty file (typed and placed in said file sometime around 1930 but a translation from a German original of about 1923) talking about how, within about 200 years (i.e. sometime around 2100 and thereafter), a web of part-human, part-robot “creatures” would criss-cross the Earth, but above the Earth (if I recall aright), and human beings would be to some extent dependent upon and in thrall to that web of intelligent human-robot creatures.
Was that just imaginative nonsense? I do not know but, looking at the Internet, looking at the rapid progress of AI, and looking at how human society is today already very dependent upon computerized systems etc (not only for physical activities but also for decision-making), I cannot simply dismiss it as over-imaginative speculation, or even a hoax.
I should like to read that manuscript again, if it still exists, but unfortunately I now have no access to the vault where it was stored.

Answers “on a postcard”, but don’t expect me to publish them— free speech is already all but dead in the UK, and the expected Labour Friends of Israel government of Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, Wes Streeting etc will finish the job, destroying what little is left of freedom of expression in this country.
“A charity shop in North Yorkshire has caused a stir amongst local residents after putting a golliwog doll up for sale in its window for £4.50.
The teddy, considered by many to be a racist caricature of black people, was first spotted by shoppers in the window of Preloved, in Skipton, on Wednesday.
It was removed on the following Friday, as some residents labelled the display as ‘disgusting’ and vile’.
However, it is still understood to be for sale for £4.50 inside the store, which raises money for Cancer Support Yorkshire.
Resident Anne, a retired carer, said: ‘I was tempted to buy it just to remove it.
In February 2023, police seized a collection of golliwog dolls from The White Hart Inn in Essex, following reports of a ‘suspected hate crime’.
A month later, the pub was forced to close its doors, after Heineken and Carlsberg told the owners to stop serving their beer.
A maintenance firm also refused to work on site.”
[Daily Mail]
The hysterical “anti-racist” nonsense continues, though I expect that it is confined to a relatively small if not very small minority. “Retired carer Anne” in that report, if she exists at all, is obviously a malicious old ideologue; she even went into the charity shop to harangue the staff. “Was tempted to buy it just to remove it” but…did not do so. “ I think I might go back and buy it just to stop it being displayed.” Yeah, right… Loony “anti-racist” cretin.
There is, in fact, nothing wrong with the golliwog as a mascot or toy; it was not meant to be anti-black or anything; golliwogs are or were (I supposed all but banned now) akin to teddy bears— beloved toys or “inanimate” companions for young children, as seen in the image below (said to be from the 1950s, though it may be earlier):
There is a madness abroad in this country, a kind of witch-hunt mentality, promoted by “the usual suspects”, the idiotic “antifa” dupes and, ultimately, by those behind the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

Golliwogs are not the only victims of the new UK poundland police state (which will no doubt become even more insanely Stasi-like under Yvette Cooper and Starmer, the post-2024 Labour Friends of Israel tyrants); free speech is another victim, as is general freedom of expression.

Compare that to the Profumo affair of the early 1960s. A Cabinet minister resigned merely for having had a secret girlfriend who happened to be also involved with the Soviet Naval Attache, and having lied about the affair.
Standards in public life have always fallen, at times and in regard to this or that individual, from the strictest level, but what we now see is a general collapse of decent behaviour.

It came as no surprise when a positive drugwipe followed.

A good example of stolid English police humour.
Maureen Lipman and that coterie of right wing luvvies that includes David Baddiel, Stephen Fry, Simon Schama, Sacha Baron Cohen, Tracey Ann Oberman, Tony Robinson and the like are insufferable, fascist Zionists who couldn’t take a day of what they happily condemn Palestinians to.
Maureen Lipman thinks that no-one has a “right to return” (except, of course, Jews, who have a “Right of Return” law in Israel/Occupied Palestine, which allows any Jew to settle in Israel/Palestine, even those whose DNA shows that their ancestors were from Khazaria or elsewhere, and never anywhere near Israel/Palestine…).
The game is not…quite… at an end. There is still the possibility that a very small minority of Europeans (“Aryans” or, more accurately, post-Aryans) can take control sufficiently to vanquish evil and then create the basis for a new society which, eventually, over a long period of time, can become the foundation for an even later super-race.
[the Swastika, or Hakenkreuz, symbol of the positive evolution of consciousness]
Sadly, after two brutal, internecine world wars, Europeans have made themselves violence averse pacifists. They have been taught not to fight and not to fight back. They consequently don't have the strength of will to repel the Muslim migrants' encroachment, and their political…
As so often, people tweet or otherwise comment about the Muslim encroachment, and I have no argument about that, but they all too often ignore the fact of the far more powerful “Zionist” lobby, so embedded now in UK System politics, law, finance and business (obviously), and in the mainstream media and elsewhere.
Look at that cartoon. Islamic flags, but no Star of David or Israeli flags; yet which bloc or lobby is taking away freedom of expression in the UK? 90%+ of the repression is being co-ordinated by Jewish/Zionist and/or pro-Israel groups, such as the small but well-funded and very malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” kruzhok, which has attacked and tried to prosecute not only me but also such as Alison Chabloz, Al-Jazeera TV, David Icke, the Jewish —but anti-Israel— jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, and numerous others.
As far as my own situation is concerned, the “CAA” has engaged in a decade-long campaign against me (which fact the CAA admits, though saying it has been 7+ years-long). They also admit using the very peculiar Israel-lobby-owned “lord”, former MP Ian Austin, to pressure officials of the Crown (Clown) Prosecution Service, right up to the level of the Director of Public Prosecutions himself, to prosecute me on any basis that could be contrived.
The “CAA” (and their suborned dupes, the “Clown” Prosecution Service) were crowing online, including on Twitter/X, about having managed to get me convicted in November 2023, using the Communications Act 2003, s.127, a law so badly-drafted and unjust that the Law Commission has formally recommended its repeal, but the “CAA” has not tweeted at all about the sentence handed down in March 2024— 15 “rehabilitation” meetings with or via the Probation Service, and a costs order of £734 in all.
[I now, today, have just seen that the “CAA” website has published a long whining complaint that the sentence given to me was “scandalously lenient“. The “CAA” has nothing to complain about— its so-called “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” made a totally false allegation in 2021 that I had “racially abused” him. There was no evidence at all for that complaint, yet the individual has never been prosecuted, not yet anyway, for a quite plain attempted perversion of the course of justice].
Incidentally, should any kind persons wish to defray the costs imposed on me by the Court, donations can be made here: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.
So far, £235 has been raised, about a third of the minimum payment required, and I have agreed with the payment office of the Court to pay £91.75 per month (for 8 months).
The history of my decade of persecution by the “CAA” and the other involved group, “UK Lawyers for Israel” ([UKLFI”] (both presently to be seen supporting the slaughter in Gaza, and the latter responsible for the complaint against me that resulted, after 2+ years, in my getting disbarred in 2016) can be found, in part, here below:
I have little doubt that that “CAA” cabal will be trying to contrive another malicious complaint against me now that their 2021-2024 ones have fallen flat; fallen flat despite my 2023 conviction and 2024 sentence, because the sentence was fairly lenient (though I had hoped for an even-lighter sentence, a conditional discharge and/or small fine), and because the (rather fair-minded, in my opinion) sentencing judge refused to grant the pathetic —and pathetically-poorly drafted— Clown Crown Prosecution Service application to restrict what I say or publish on the blog.
Also, there was no suspended sentence of imprisonment— my written Defendant’s Argument on Sentence put paid to any idea of that sort, and Prosecution Counsel, to be fair, was not foolish enough to ask for one once the trial judge had effectively ruled that out at end of trial (let alone actual imprisonment).
Anyway, what that means is that, should the “CAA” and/or police and Clown Prosecution Service want to prosecute me again, i.e. for what has been posted on the blog since mid-November 2023, or what is being currently posted on the blog, they will have to start all over again, and if they were to do that (pointlessly wasting yet more tens of thousands of pounds of public money), the matter would probably not conclude until some time in 2025, or even later, were I to appeal any conviction and sentence (and, were I to be convicted again, an appeal might be more likely than it was in the 2023/2024 matter).
I should robustly defend any further attempt to prosecute me for anything, of course.
Actually, while I dispute that any of the material in respect of which I was recently convicted and sentenced was “grossly offensive” anyway, regular readers will have noted that the blog has, in the past months, taken on a more diplomatic and more thoughtful tone, while remaining staunch and steadfast in principle and ideology.
Incidentally, readers may like to know that no Prosecution application was made to the Court at trial or after sentence that any material should be removed from the blog. All the (5) blog posts (out of 1,800 posted since 2016) which were the subject-matter of the trial remain extant and, while naturally it is the wiser course for me not to link to them, browsing readers interested in seeing what nonsense the prosecution was can see all of those blog posts via the search box or otherwise.
Indeed, the Clown Prosecution Service and “CAA”, as well as the few mass media outlets that reported my conviction and/or sentence, have themselves republished most of the supposedly “grossly offensive” remarks about Jews allegedly first posted by me, thus spreading those remarks far and wide. Thank you, clowns!
My legal position now, in respect of the blog, is what it was this time last year, or indeed in 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 (when the blog started). The blog remains, all previous posts remain in place, and I continue to blog, despite the inevitably chilling effect on freedom of expression of the past year’s repressive legal process.
I have little time for any of the three (Julia-Hartley-Brewer, Andrew Tate, Greta Nut), but I agree (for once) with radio loudmouth Julia Hartley-Brewer (about Greta Nut).
“British soldiers training in Kenya have carried out initiation ceremonies in which younger recruits are forced into having unprotected sex with prostitutes, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
Senior soldiers allegedly toss a coin to determine whether the squaddie wears a condom, to prove how ‘brave’ they are.
The claims have alarmed defence chiefs because of the high rates of HIV/Aids in Kenya, where it affects one in 20 people.“

Rassenschande…
Wait until Spetsnaz commandos burst into your base; prove how “brave” you and your officers are then…
More seriously, are any of the UK armed forces worth a plugged nickel these days?
