Well, this week another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 3/10. My score was 7/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 3, and 6 (and I admit that my correct answer to question 8 was a semi-guess or educated guess).

I have met relatively few, not so many, Ukrainians. I have met many Russians, of all sorts. I have to say that I much prefer the Russians I have met to the Ukrainians I have met.
Subjective, yes of course. Anecdotal too, were details to be considered. However, consider the cultural riches of Russia: composers, writers, painters, philosophers and other thinkers. Now consider the Ukrainian equivalent. Frankly, there is no comparison.
Trump is absolutely right to say mass immigration is killing Europe.
Why?
Because it’s not only transplanting non-European cultures but is ushering in low-wage, low-skill, low-educated migration that’s a net fiscal costhttps://t.co/KPXX4VnTqT

This is the sort of thing that happens when free speech is attacked via not only misguided or deliberately-totalitarian anti-free speech laws but also via policy determinations that have no basis in law whatever, as with “non-crime hate incidents”. “Hate crime” itself has no real basis in law; even less so has “non-crime hate” etc.
This is akin to, parallel to, what happened during the 2020-2022 “Covid” hysteria— government wishes, or preferences, labelled as “official guidance”, and all of that farrago confused with actual law, and then “enforced” arbitrarily by police woodentops who often had, and have, no idea either as to what is and what is not law, and who also often have an inflated idea of their own powers under law.
Talking about “Covid” and thinking back to the facemask loonies seen everywhere 2-3 years ago (though not so often now the msm propaganda hysteria has died down), I saw a typical one today in a supermarket: a middle-aged woman, very fat, hauling herself along slowly, while wearing her filthy, probably 3-years-old, cloth facemask, and pushing a large shopping trolley full of high-carb, high-fat foodstuffs.

Moscow travelogue
Very different from when I was not far from there several times in 1993 (in Leninsky Prospekt, at the Academy of Sciences). On my second and shorter trip to Moscow, in 2007, I was in another area of the city.
Whatever may be said about Putin, he has made Moscow a very much better city than it was either in 2007 or (a fortiori) 1993, when it was, palpably, on the edge of chaos.
Sovietism had to fall, after the years of gradual decline and the uselessness of Gorbachev. It fell into near-chaos, it was ravaged and pillaged by finance-capitalist carpetbaggers (mostly Jews) from the West, and also by (mostly Jewish) homegrown predators, the so-called “oligarchs”. Gangsterism too.
Putin put an end to much of that, certainly to the outright gangsterism (in 1993, in the Yeltsin era, I was staying in the same hotel, the Ukraina, as the top-level Chechen gangsters), but there are still huge social inequalities (and, worse yet, inequities) in Russia.
I feel that Russia is still in one of its states of transition. The situation will become clearer later.
"Violent crime is up sharply. More than 2 million violent crimes were recorded against people last year, up from 634,000 a decade ago."https://t.co/8d8lbc7CA8

Well, Corbyn proves, once again, that he is a bit of a political joke.
At present, Reform UK is between 28% and 34% in the opinion polls, which might result in anything between 200 and 400 MPs at a general election. Corbyn’s (I think as yet unnamed) “real Labour” party has not been much tested in opinion polls but seems to be somewhere between 5% and 10%.
That might result in anything from a couple of MPs (inc. Corbyn himself) and (at peak) half a dozen or so MPs. The likelihood is that Corbyn’s new party will take a small amount of support from Reform, far more from official Labour, and so give Reform maybe (?) a dozen more MPs.

Jew-Zionist troublemakers have been trying to censor British people for decades. They have been pressuring commercial venues to cancel shows by “antisemitic” and/or anti-Israel speakers, comedians, singers etc for at least half a century in the UK. People such as David Icke, such as the Jewish anti-Zionist jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, and hundreds if not thousands of others.
“Slitherman” and his “Campaign Against Antisemitism” co-conspirators are prominent in that sort of activity, and have been for at least 11 years.
As a matter of fact, the “CAA” was behind the “cancelling” of satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz at the Edinburgh Fringe several years ago, and dishonest/negligent Jew-Zionist solicitor Mark Lewis, and his loudmouthed wife/carer, Mandy Blumenthal (aided and abetted by lying Daily Mail scribbler Sabrina Miller), were behind the attempted shutdown of black comedian Reginald D. Hunter last year (2024), also at the Edinburgh Fringe:
Now, the “CAA” pro-Israel propaganda outfit (engaged in “lawfare”— abuse of English law for pro-Jew-Zionist/Israel purposes) has taken the matter further, actually having the sheer gall to privately prosecute that black comedian on a criminal charge.

[“Genocidal Zionists are incandescent with fury at the continued solidarity with Palestine shown by international lawyer and UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese. The latest tactic is to have the Donald Trump administration announce sanctions against her. “Albanese’s campaign of political and economic warfare against the United States and Israel will no longer be tolerated,” the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, posted on X. “We will always stand by our partners in their right to self-defense.” Rubio is one of the most pro-Zionist people ever to be appointed to the post of US Secretary of State and has received over a million dollars from Zionist lobby groups, “making him one of the top recipients of pro-Israeli donations”. The sanctions announcement coincided with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Washington, DC. Rubio and Netanyahu met on the same day that the sanctions were announced, which must suggest very close coordination.

The Typhoon is a capable but not superior aircraft compared to our fighter jets. But it’s a clear and worrying signal that Turkey is accelerating its arms buildup in a way that could eventually challenge Israel’s military edge in the region. The deal isn’t an immediate threat, but still a headache for Israel”.]
This is the sort of thing that matters, not well-meaning people holding up placards in the UK to protest against the evil actions of the Israeli Jews in Gaza or the West Bank.
Eventually, both Turkey and Iran will have the means available to stamp on Israel and kill it off, very likely, notwithstanding Israel’s nuclear capabilities. Iran’s power rests, at long distance, on missiles, presently conventional, but perhaps eventually nuclear; Turkey’s power rests mainly on very powerful, and becoming more powerful, conventional forces; millions of soldiers, 2,500 tanks, and ever-more-powerful military air fleets.
I fully expect the Jews to be driven out of the Middle East eventually, but that will not, of course, be the final chapter.

[“Peter Kyle – Labour MP for Hove and Portslade (East Sussex). Peter has been an MP for ten years and is now the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology. Peter previously worked for children’s charities and helped set up an orphanage in Rumania. He held senior positions while Labour were in opposition. Peter is also a Parliamentary ‘officer’ and Vice Chair of Labour Friends of Israel. Peter was a persistent critic of Jeremy Corbyn when he was leader of the party. The @ElectoralCommUK donations page shows that Peter has received £270,596.59 in donations and perks. In 2023/24/25 these have included: £118,433.22 from the Labour donor, banker and founder of Albourne Partners Simon Ruddick. £16,000 from international banker Anthony Watson. £13,000 from the @CWU, £99.840 from @PublicDigitalHQ to cover a staff secondment. The individual concerned was a ‘policy fellow’ at the Trevor Chinn funded/Morgan McSweeney run consortium; @LabourTogether £5,000 from banker and Chief Executive of Coutts & Co. Michael Morley £5,000 from Baron Patrick Carter. £15,000 from Simon Kime. £10,000 from Labour donor Lord Matthew Oakenshott. £10,000 from political donor Susan Ruddick. £13,665.57 from Lord David Sainsbury for international trips by air and on the Eurostar. £3,584 in hospitality and tickets from The Football Association for the Brit Awards and Taylor Swift and Madonna concerts.£1,835 from @SkyArts for hospitality and tickets to various events. £2,758.95 from the intelligence linked firm @HakluytCompany for a trip to San Francisco to meet with personnel from the tech industry. With his £93,904 salary, expenses, allowances, perks and very generous donations, there’s no doubt that Peter is living the good life as a Labour MP. ‘Poverty in Hove, part of Brighton & Hove, is a significant issue, with child poverty rates being a particular concern…Brighton & Hove has higher levels of pensioner poverty than the national average and contains the ward with the highest level of pensioner poverty.’ On 9th July 2025, Peter voted for the welfare/PIP cuts that will result in further distress and hardship for people who are disabled and unwell. Peter also voted to scrap the #WinterFuelPayment to pensioners and voted to retain the two child benefit cap which ‘significantly contributes to child poverty’ in the UK. @UKLabour@peterkyle.”]
Peter Kyle, MP for Hove and Portslade, is a typical member of the present Labour Friends of Israel government (arguably the least competent UK government in memory). A freeloader, out for what he can grab.
I had already considered that possibility. Would probably give Reform over 300 —maybe even 350— MPs, Labour perhaps 100, Cons and LibDems about 75 each, and the new “Corbyn” party maybe (at most) 10. Something like that. Not as much difference as one might have imagined, but cementing Reform’s presently-likely triumph.

“Who isn’t in favour of helping Gaza? Nobody.”
Really? Nobody?!
The lady tweeter seems to have forgotten about Israel, certainly the Netanyahu government, almost certainly most of the Israeli Jews, and (probably) most of the Jews in the UK and elsewhere.
As far as Corbyn being an “antisemite” is concerned, I wish he had been; he might then not have been so easily removed by a conspiracy consisting of Labour Friends of Israel MPs, murky Jew-Zionist orgs circling like vultures overhead, and Israel-lobby msm scribblers, talking heads etc; also, pro-Israel mass media platform-owners such as Murdoch, Desmond and others …
From my perspective, Corbyn is not really “antisemitic” at all, or only marginally.
“Wow” indeed…if that opinion poll is accurate (and it may be), Reform would get 436 MPs at a general election (a Commons majority of 110), Labour 78, LibDems 55, SNP 37, Cons 15, Greens 4 (etc).
Any result like that would certainly spell the end of the long-lived Con Party, would knock the stuffing out of Labour, and would write Reform UK a blank cheque (subject only to the House of Lords, where Reform has no peers at all, out of 836 peers at present. However, Farage could just create hundreds of new Reform peers, or simply abolish the Lords).
Among the hundreds of Labour MPs who would be booted out would be Stephen Kinnock, Angela Rayner, Dan Jarvis, Jess Phillips, Ed Miliband, Luke Akehurst, Stephen Timms, Andrew Gwynne, Bridget Phillipson, Liz Kendall, Nia Griffith, Maria Eagle, Angela Eagle, Lucy Powell, Yvette Cooper, Anna Turley, Paul Waugh, Sarah Champion, Kim Leadbeater, Gareth Snell, Torsten Bell, Emma Reynolds, Wes Streeting etc.
Interestingly, Starmer-stein might survive, but no doubt would resign as Labour leader. He would not be interested in staying on anyway.
Prominent Cons in the bin would include Dunce Duncan Smith, Mel Stride (the Con “moderates'” great white hope), Kemi Badenoch (present Con leader and “great non-white hopeless”), Suella Braverman, Jesse Norman, Oliver Dowden, Julian Lewis, Desmond Swayne (my own local MP, and entirely useless, though I do not disagree with him on everything), Jewish-lobby puppet Robert Jenrick, Rishi Sunak, Mark Francois, Andrew Rosindell, the deadhead Gavin Williamson, “chocolate soldier” Tom Tugendhat, Nick Timothy, James Cleverly, Alex Burghart, David Davis, Jewish-lobby minor puppet Alec Shelbrooke etc.
Some LibDems and Greens would also be binned, but none of them is of the slightest consequence.

People guilty of antisemitism are usually found guilty of a lesser crime, such as bringing an institution into disrepute or expressing hate for political reasons.
Antisemitism isn’t considered important, which is why it’s frequently followed by “and all other forms of prejudice”
The latter tweeter, a propagandist for Israel and the Jewish-Zionist lobby [https://www.jewishvoiceforlabour.org.uk/article/alex-hearn-claims-to-oppose-antisemitism-but-undermines-the-fight-against-it/] says that “antisemitism” is a crime, which is not the case in England and Wales (or the rest of the UK). That has been re-iterated on several occasions by judges at both magistrates’ court and Crown Court level. Incidentally, the same is true of so-called “holocaust” “denial” (historical revision or revisionism re. some events of the early/mid 1940s).
I have no idea what Dutch law may say about that, though Jewish influence has always been pervasive in the Netherlands, a result no doubt of the country’s history of banking and commerce.

The destruction wrought by Israeli forces in Gaza can truly be called “Biblical” in both scale and intent, as when the tribes mentioned in the Old Testament fought genocidal wars.
It is idle for Jew-Zionist lawyers (ludicrously, often those who pose as “human rights” specialists) to say that, because of X, Y, and Z, the Jewish/Israeli destruction and continuing slaughter in Gaza (for nearly 15 months now) is not “genocide” for various hair-splitting reasons. What has happened, what is still happening, speaks for itself.
Look at what has happened all around Israel/Palestine for years, for decades. “They” always bring degeneration and destruction to others.

Played today on Radio 3. The BBC presenter made an apparent error, saying that the composer served in the RAF during the Second World War. If Wikipedia is to be believed (and its version does seem far more credible), Sowande in fact worked at that time as musical adviser and composer in the Colonial Film Unit of the Ministry of Information in London, as well as giving talks on the BBC Africa Service.
Not bad. Showing, at least in my view, the influence of several British composers, including Vaughan Williams.
Every day, more of the same. The names of the villages mean little to most people, even in the former Soviet Union, but the upshot is that, every single day, Russian forces advance by a few miles, as the Kiev-regime forces fall back.
On that front, once the Russian forces, pushing north, get close to Kharkov, the Kiev-regime forces will be squeezed from at least two sides. Eventually, Kharkov must fall.
Once Kharkov falls, the whole of Eastern Ukraine (Ukraine east of the Dnieper) will fall to Russian control.
Incidentally, though Kharkov itself is not very well-known to the Western public, it is the second-largest city in Ukraine, and the 19th-largest in Europe (by population).

It may seem trivial to be concerned about this very typical 2024 story, but it says something about the decline of Britain over, particularly, the past 20 years, as does the decline of that once-proud chocolate brand, Cadbury’s (now “Cadbury”), bought by a basically Jewish American company (Kraft), then trashed, its production moved to Eastern Europe and Asia, the British factories closed, the British workers sacked, the tradition and pride gone. “Cadbury” is now part of a global brand-owner called Mondelez.
It all betokens a shrinking of horizons, a decline, a sell-out in every way.

More seriously
God knows what 2025 will bring to the world, to Europe, to Britain, and to each of us, but we must all keep in mind the necessity for continuing human evolution, and that requires an ethno-cultural and socio-political foundation for a society which, over time, can create the basis for an eventual quantum leap in evolution, a race and society far ahead of any presently in existence.
They use the language of social class but the real agenda seems to be to deprive children of even occasional contact with life-giving white Northern and general European culture. Evil plans from evil people. What should be done with those evil people?
Look at the destruction the Israeli Army and air force has wrought in only 14-15 months; including the deaths of about 150,000, the majority women and children, including many of under 5 years of age.
Fanatical Jews, including Jewish lawyers in the UK masquerading as “human rights” barristers, say that what has been done is not really “genocide” but justified military action. Their Talmudic argumentativeness convinces few (not even many Jews). Look at the facts (and the photos) rather than legalistic labels twisted by Jew-Zionist lawyers for tribal purposes.

“Tim Montgomerie’s leap from the Tory ship to Reform UK? Now this is a statement. Thirty-three years of loyalty to the Conservatives, yet even he’s had enough of the dithering, U-turns, and wet centrism. Reform UK is becoming the island for those sick of the Westminster circus, a home for patriots tired of compromise and careerists. The Tories should be terrified—if stalwarts like Montgomerie are walking away, what does that say about the state of the party? Reform UK isn’t just nibbling at the edges anymore; it’s carving out a proper movement for common-sense politics and sovereignty. Watch this space, lads. The political realignment is only just beginning.”
Naturally, for anyone social-national, Reform UK is only a step forward, rather than any giant leap. Many of its expressed policies are wrong, and many of its candidates non-European. It is also pro-Israel etc.
Reform, however, may help to kill off the System parties over the next few years.
As for Tim Montgomerie, I have of course never had any time for him. He supported the fake “compassionate Conservatism” of David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne (both part-Jew) and the cruelties inflicted on so many by their policies, and by “welfare” (social security) “reformers” Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, the Jew “Lord” Freud etc.
Still, Montgomerie’s defection is an interesting commentary on the possible upcoming demise of the Conservative Party.
Reform UK is polling at around 20%. It has been there before, just about, but fell back to score only 14.29% at GE 2024. In my opinion, though, the fact that Reform UK was able to have 5 MPs elected (in contradistinction to other small parties of the past half-century and more) is more important than appears superficially.
To look at Reform UK’s underwhelming (in themselves and in terms of numbers) 5 MPs and say (as many Labour Party partisans, pro-EU drones etc, have done, expressly) “ha ha! You lost!“, totally misses the point.
For any small political party, under the UK electoral system, to get even one MP elected is huge; to get 5 elected at once is, well, massive.
That especially applies once one realizes that it was only the FPTP voting system, which since the 1960s has gradually ceased to reflect the real levels of political opinion in the country, which prevented Reform UK having about 93 MPs (14.29% of 650).
Under a (full) proportional representation system, Reform UK would have been awarded 93 MPs, the LibDems 79, the Conservative Party 154, and Labour 219, on the voting numbers at GE 2024.
In reality, were the voting system proportional, many more voters might have voted for Reform UK anyway, because not put off doing so by the perception that not voting Lab, Con, or LibDem is “a wasted vote”.
As can be seen from the graphic above, the present system of voting in England (particularly) is skewed against the smaller parties. Not Reform UK alone; the Green Party, under a fully-proportionate system, would have been awarded, at GE 2024, 42 MPs (6.39% of 650) instead of the 3 who were actually elected. Even George Galloway’s Workers’ Party would have 5 seats.
Some proportional-voting systems have a “threshold”, 1%, 5% etc, below which a party gets no seats.
We now have a Labour government which was voted for by a third (33.7%) of the actually-voting electorate, and by a mere 20% of the eligible electorate. It has only marginal legitimacy.
Having said all that, we are where we are. At present, the main two System parties still stand opposed to reform of the electoral process.
The SNP was founded in 1934, but only had its first MP elected in 1945, in a by-election, and he lost his seat only 3 months later. The next SNP MP won her seat in another by-election, in 1967, but lost it in 1970, though another SNP candidate won in another seat. At that time, there were 71 MPs holding Scottish constituencies.
The SNP did well in 1974, getting 11 MPs at one of the two general elections, but fell back to 2 in 1979. Throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, the SNP increased its support but even in 2010 had only 6 MPs out of the 59 then available in Scotland.
Then, in 2015, the SNP had its electoral miracle, based on a “Conservative” Party government at Westminster supported by relatively few Scottish voters, and on a Labour Party which had been supreme in Scotland since 1945, increasingly so since 1964 and then in the early 21stC, but which was perceived as being useless (particularly so in the Blair/Brown years (when Labour was in power at Westminster) and thereafter, when Scottish Labour was headed by the egregiously poor Jim Murphy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Murphy]. Murphy had been an unsuccessful university student for 11 years, and never did graduate, but became a Labour MP at the relatively early age of 29.
In 2015, Scottish Labour lost 41 of its 41 Westminster seats, while the SNP held or gained 56 (out of 59).
How does that relate to Reform UK in 2024 and perhaps 2029?
We have seen how the SNP took over a decade to get 1 MP, and 40 years to get a cadre of MPs, and how the SNP only surged to power 81 years after its foundation.
Reform UK, dating from only 2021, is however the same, in effect, as its previous persona as Brexit Party, founded in 2018, and a lineal descendant from UKIP (though that still exists as a small rump), founded in 1993.
Reform UK is now aiming to do in England, as well as in the UK as a whole, what the SNP did in Scotland in 2015, i.e. catch the wave of popular support. For Farage, Tice etc, there has to be that FPTP tipping point, the point at which the illogical, unfair etc FPTP system, instead of impeding Reform, starts to work in its favour.
Reform’s slightly underwhelming result at GE 2024 was purely the result of its support (and votes) being spread so thinly. Reform had considerably more actual votes than the LibDems, but few concentrations of votes. Where the concentration was dense enough, Reform got MPs.
The msm commentators, and the Labour and Conservative Party partisans, have not fully taken on board why Labour won so many MPs, and so won the election.
Labour won because the Conservative Party lost. Trite, yes, but the point is that —as can be seen from the percentage voting for Labour, only 33.7%— rather few people actually voted Labour, and most of those who did, did so in a wholly negative way, i.e. because in this or that particular constituency, the fight was perceived as being only between Lab and Con, or Lab and SNP in Scotland, and people desperately wanted rid of 14 years of “Conservative” misgovernment.
What, then happens when Labour, Starmer-Labour, Labour Friends of Israel Labour, is hated and despised as much as the Conservative Party was 5 months ago? Well, actually, that has already happened, but of course Labour is going nowhere, insulated from dissent, protest, and even riot by its very large majority (presently 156: see https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/government-majority).
It has taken Starmer only 5 months to put Labour down where the Cons were, in popular estimation, after many years, arguably 14 years.
If the voting patterns of several years continue, i.e. people voting against rather than for candidates and parties, then I think it entirely possible that, in voting against Labour, Reform might be the receptacle for those “anti” votes, more than the Conservative Party. In fact, I can see at least the possibility that both Lab and Con will slump, Lab to maybe 200 seats, and Con to somewhere below 100. If that were to happen, there would be about 350 seats going to others, in England maybe 250. Reform could be the main beneficiary of that.
It may be speculative to suggest that the next general election could see Reform UK as the party with the most Commons seats, but it is now not impossible.
How many seats could Reform get? I do not know. Anywhere from 50 to 200, if they continue to gather support. Reform came second in 98 seats at GE 2024; on the other hand, UKIP came second in 120 seats in 2015.
The only gamechanger I could see for the Cons would be if “Boris” Johnson were to come back into direct politics, take one of the few “safe” Con seats left, depose the Nigerian woman, Kemi Badenoch, then appeal to the public, “cosplaying” his favourite role as an am-dram Winston Churchill.
As regular readers know, I myself despise Johnson, and hold him in utter contempt. However, many voters do not. Stupid, maybe, but we must look at the realities. In fact, Johnson is not terribly popular with the voters; just more popular than Kemi Badenoch ever will be.
I have often wondered why Johnson was not granted a life peerage. He could have had one, had he wished. There is only one answer— he wanted to keep his options open. Were he to return as Con leader, he could not do worse than Sunak (or Badenoch) electorally, in my view. A “Boris” general election might steal much of Reform’s thunder. The Cons might even become the largest party again. Hateful to me (as is Starmer-Labour) but it might just happen.
At GE 2024, parties and individuals other than LibLabCon got a record 30.4%. That means that, already, if taken with the 40.2% of eligible voters who did not vote, 70.6% of people did not vote for the so-called “three main parties”.
In the early 1980s (when I took A Levels, studying for a few months alone in order to be able to get onto a law degree course, having dropped out of school a decade before, at age 16, in 1973), about 8% of candidates were awarded a Grade A. By 2009, that had grown to nearly 27%, despite the increase in the number of candidates.
In 2009, the concerns about grade inflation resulted in a new category being established, the A*. Look at the statistics. From 2009, about 8% were getting A* grades, but the ordinary A grades were, from 2009, running at around 18% or more. B and C grades were inflating even more.
As with the currency, grade inflation simply means that, in the end, the piece of paper becomes almost worthless.
Israeli war crimes— Genocide in Gaza
“My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli Professor of Holocaust Studies. For nearly 30 years I have researched and taught the Holocaust, genocide and state violence.
And I want to tell whoever is willing to listen that what’s happening now in Gaza is a genocide.
““My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli Professor of Holocaust Studies. For nearly 30 years I have researched and taught the Holocaust, genocide and state violence. And I want to tell whoever is willing to listen that what’s happening now in Gaza is a genocide. A year ago when October 7th happened, like all Israelis I was in shock. It was a war crime and a crime against humanity. 1200 people – more than 800 of them civilians – were killed in one day. Children and the elderly were among those taken hostage. Communities were destroyed. It was outrageous, traumatizing, personal. Like most Israelis, I know people who were killed, who lost loved ones or whose loved ones were taken hostage. But immediately afterwards came Israel’s response and within weeks thousands of civilians were killed in Gaza. It took me some time to digest what was unfolding before my eyes. It was agonizing to confront that reality. I was reluctant to call it a genocide. But if you read Raphael Lemkin – the Jewish-Polish legal scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ and was the major driving force behind the 1948 United Nations Genocide Convention – what is happening in Gaza now is exactly what he had in mind when he spoke about genocide. It does not need to look like the Holocaust to be a genocide. Each genocide looks different and not all involve killing of millions or the entire group. The United Nations Genocide Convention explicitly asserts that genocide is the act of deliberately destroying a group in whole or in part. Those are the words. But there does need to be a clear intent. And indeed, there are clear indications of intent to destroy Gaza: Israel’s leaders – including the prime minister and the minister of defence – and many high-ranking military officers, media personalities, rabbis, as well as ordinary soldiers were very open about what they wanted to achieve. There were countless documented incitements to turn the whole of Gaza into rubble and claims that there are no innocent people living there. A radical atmosphere of dehumanization of the Palestinians prevails in Israeli society to an extent that I can’t remember in my 58 years of living here. Now that vision has been enacted. Tens of thousands of innocent children, women and men have been killed. Over a hundred thousand were wounded. There is a near total destruction of infrastructure, intentional starvation and blocking of humanitarian aid. There are mass graves and reliable testimony of summary executions. Children that were shot by snipers. All the universities and almost all hospitals are gone. Almost all the population is displaced. There have been numerous bombings of civilians in so-called ‘safe zones’. Gaza does not exist anymore. It is completely destroyed. Thus, the outcome fits perfectly with the stated intentions of Israel’s leadership. Lemkin – that scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ – described two phases of a genocide. The first is the destruction of the annihilated group and the second is what he called ‘imposition of the national pattern’ of the perpetrator. We are now witnessing the second phase as Israel prepares ethnically cleansed areas for Israeli settlements. And therefore, I have come to the conclusion that this is exactly what a genocide looks like. We don’t teach about genocides in order to realize it retrospectively. We teach about it in order to prevent it and to stop it. But like in every other case of genocide in history right now we have mass denial. Both here in Israel and around the world. But reality cannot be denied. So yes, it is a genocide. And once you come to this conclusion you cannot remain silent.” – Statement to Led By Donkeys, December 2024 – Photo: Parliament Square, London, 8.40am, 4th December 2024.“
Powerful.
That statement certainly puts the UK and US-based Jew-Zionist “human rights” lawyers in their place, the ones constantly tweeting about how what has been happening in Gaza is supposedly not a genocide because… [how many angels can dance on the head of a pin?].

What really matters politically, though, is not the Westminster Bubble blame-game but what is actually happening on the streets. A million or more invaders every year (last year 1.2M) (yes, one or two hundred thousand leave, as do about a hundred thousand disenchanted Brits), and a steep slide in terms of public services, a decent society, crime, incomes, housing provision, and much else.
If things go on as they now are, there will be either a quietly-British form of social-national revolution somewhere or somewhen down the line, or (and/or) a kind of civil war mixed with a social war and a race war. A confused mixed picture, though, not a sharply-delineated and two-sided one.
In contemporary Britain, the truth is “inflammatory“…
I argued, in my long-ago talk at the London Forum in 2017, that people charged with such essentially political offences should never plead guilty.
Pleading guilty is understandable in ordinary criminal cases, in that it reduces the sentence where the evidence is overwhelming, but I consider it the duty of social-national and other nationalist defendants to plead not guilty. To plead guilty is to validate the prosecution. Also, in a jury case especially, you never know your luck.
I followed my own advice in my 2023 free speech trial.
Yes, I was still convicted, after a process that started, from my point of view, in February or March 2023, and ended with my sentencing hearing on 14 March 2024, but my “9-month community order” (probation, by any other word) ends in about a week, technically, and in reality finished in mid-September 2024; my “community order” sentence of “15 rehabilitation days” turned out to be half a dozen or so meetings ranging in duration from about 30 minutes to a couple of hours each.
Would I have been handed down a more lenient sentence had I pleaded guilty? I doubt it.
People at the Spectator Awards used to laugh at @Nigel_Farage. Last night, I sat in the room as he warned them Reform will cause an earthquake at the next election. There was total silence because everybody knows it could happen.
It does not even much matter that Reform UK would probably be poor at governing. The main thing is to smash the “two main parties” scam, and—to intrude a metaphor from the world of chess— to open up the board.
Happened to catch 10 mins of a TV jaunt around the Caribbean, presented by Clive Myrie. Needless to say, the black TV presenter focussed, when in Jamaica and Barbados, mainly on slavery, “reparations” for slavery, and on “racism” etc.
There was an amusing moment when Myrie met relatives in what I took to be their not unpleasant large villa, set amid a profusion of flowering plants. One of them mentioned how Myrie’s father had, after having moved to the UK, encountered “racism, not like you today“, but Myrie demurred. He obviously has that chip on the shoulder, despite being paid hundreds of thousands a year by the BBC and (as, co-incidentally, I just saw in the Guardian) large extra amounts moonlighting as well: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/dec/04/clive-myrie-apologises-for-failing-to-declare-at-least-145000-in-outside-earnings-bbc.
“Last night, Israel channel 11, the public broadcasting corporation (@kann_news) aired an alarming piece of investigative journalism. Extremist West Bank settlers, led by veteran lunatic Daniella Weiss, have raised millions, bought equipment and are creeping around the Gaza border, awaiting their chance to enter and start setting Gaza under the army’s wings and over the hostages’ bodies. The next phase of their plans is to drive out the Palestinians. They are a tiny minority in the Israeli public, but they have Smotrich and Ben Gvir in the cabinet. Also Netanyahu’s benevolent silence. This post, one of many, reads: “I watched the news story about the intention to settle in Gaza. This is outrageous on so many levels. The kibbutzim are still in ruins, the hostages are still dying in the tunnels, and the delusional settlers are already yearning to prey. Daniella Weiss raised 15 million in a donation campaign, they are preparing infrastructure, there are caravans ready for the signal. This madness must be stopped!“
Looks as though the “neo-Nazis” and “anti-Semites” were right once again.
Until now, that was supposed to be yet another mere “conspiracy theory”…
The Israeli state and Jews from outside Israel, including the UK, are in effect copying what the Romans did after the defeat of original Carthage— destroying everything that existed prior to conquest, then resettling the area with others. In a word, genocide.
NEW POST. Britain’s fertility crisis. We need to get serious before it’s too late.https://t.co/vOt8RA4hPj
As I have repeatedly pointed out, even that is not the furthest extent of the crisis, in that even those mothers “born in the UK” are usually non-white now.
It may be a trivial issue on the surface, but is it really of no interest that Starmer, Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves etc all greedily took whatever was offered to them? Clothes, days out, restaurant visits, even new glasses…it goes to character and to basic mindset.
1 in 5, the same number (out of all eligible voters) that voted for the “Labour”-label cabal.
