After cleansing Rafah of its inhabitants and razing the entire city, Israel is now preparing to roll out the same model across the Gaza Strip — culminating in the expulsion of the entire population to other countries.https://t.co/8tHCMSmeddhttps://t.co/c5ofMLBEr5pic.twitter.com/BguiysvOh4
Even 6 months ago, the Jewish government of Israel (occupied Palestine) was describing this as a mere and “antisemitic” conspiracy theory. Well, here we are and it seems as if, like so many “antisemitic” “conspiracy theories” and/or “tropes”, this one is, in a word, true.
Looks as if the Palestinian Arab population of Gaza is going to be either entirely killed off or (the survivors) moved God-knows-where into desert camps. It is like a reverse engineer of the foundation myth of the (original) Jews: from the land of milk and honey to a barren desert, possibly in the Sinai Peninsula.
Jewish “human rights” lawyers (of which there are many) will no doubt continue to claim that what the Jews of Israel are doing to the Gazan population is “not genocide“, but that kind of discussion is really akin to the mediaeval Scholastics debating as to how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.
One might add that the Jew-Zionist fanatics outside Israel/Palestine, in the UK and elsewhere, themselves claim that as many as 95% of Jews in the UK, France etc support Israel, and that most of those Jews support what the Israeli government has done, is doing, and plans to do in Gaza and other parts of Palestine still inhabited mainly by Arab populations.
“Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas)— latest
I missed this, from 2 months ago:
Almost a year after the whole Jack Monroe debacle began, our nightmare is finally over, and we can make a new start #jackmonroepic.twitter.com/sh6KSobQwg
Regular readers of the blog will be aware that, several years ago, when I first mentioned “Jack Monroe”, the so-called “Bootstrap Cook”, I was fairly neutral, even slightly sympathetic to her. As I found out more about her, about her entirely invented “backstory”, and about how she had lied about almost everything to do with her life and work, I became more critical.
I also discovered that “Jack Monroe” was making thousands of pounds monthly, indeed tens of thousands at times, from hundreds of well-meaning mugs, who were sending her regular donations via the Patreon website. That was in addition to TV, radio, and other appearance fees, book advances and royalties, and money gathered in from other mugs online on the premise that she was going to sue various public figures, such as the MP Lee Anderson.
The above can all be found via the search box on the blog.
Look at that tweet above. “Jack Monroe”, who frequently extracted money from mugs by claiming to be starving, near-homeless, unable to feed her child (who was, in any event, apparently not looked after by her anyway, most of the time), was (despite vast sums having, so to speak, gone up her nose or down her throat) able to offer the vendor of the said property £157,000 in cash.
Look also at how she is, it is said, now working in some (well-remunerated?) role at Southend Council (Essex). Her father, a Greek Cypriot by origin, was a senior fire officer in Essex, and once got her a job answering calls, before she discovered how easy it was to get many times the money from mugs as an outright fraud. Her father is or was also a property rental-owner of some significance in that town, and may be (presumed but I do not know for sure) a freemason. Join the dots.
Essex, particularly South Essex, is a bit of a “rotten borough” in some ways. The County Council was cheated out of £600,000 by a Jew called Simon Harris (aka “Man Behaving Dadly”) a few years ago. Neither he nor “Jack Monroe” have ever been brought to book for their “grifting” and worse.

An actual decent bit of commentary on Jack Monroe (Hadjacostas or whatever name she goes by now) from Tattle. If you still believe in 'all the good she has done', there is no hope for you and you are as thick as her soup. pic.twitter.com/vCJoiNmAKZ
I made the same points on the blog, and some months in advance of the above…
Many people seem to —shall I say, politely?— echo the blog content in their own online commentaries.
The first tweeter was right, though. “Jack Monroe” is now recognized by most people as a fraud, a con-woman and a total fantasist whose recipes are themselves a fraud, poor in terms of nutrition, far more expensive than claimed, and often looking like a dog’s dinner. All of which I started to notice years ago. What was not so years ago is that the whole “Bootstrap Cook” thing has now been dropped by the msm. Only complete mugs now give “Jack Monroe” any credence whatever.

What’s fueling the chaos? Mass immigration, collapsing legitimacy, and a government unable—or unwilling—to defend its own borders. The people feel betrayed, and Betz warns that if things don’t change, civil conflict could erupt within five years.

Impact of Trump's Tariff Trade War on Reducing US Economic Dependence on China
According to Bloomberg research, since the start of Trump's trade war with tariffs against China, China's share of US imports has fallen by 40% from 22% to 14% between 2018 and 2024.
Even GE 2024 Labour voters do not trust Labour. Only 45% think that Labour can be trusted to fulfil whatever it has promised!
I am thinking that a goodly proportion of Labour voters at GE 2024 were only Labour voters because that seemed the best way of kicking out the Conservative Party at the time.
As to the GE 2024 Reform UK voters, 76% of them think that Reform can be trusted. That, of course, has never been put to the test, because Reform has never had any political power.
Digging slightly deeper, 76% of GE 2024 Conservative voters think that the Con Party can be trusted (to my mind, remarkable, looking at the 14 years of lies, incompetence, mass migration invasion etc that preceded GE 2024). Well, in any event, of those who voted, only <24% voted Conservative, and only three-quarters of those now trust the party for which they voted. I imagine that most of those still on board are elderly or very elderly.
Labour is in a worse position yet. Of those who voted at GE 2024, only 33% voted Labour, and less than half of those voters now trust Labour (very understandably).
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.

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.

Assuming that the reports are correct (they seem to be), and that the longstanding government of the Assad family in Syria has fallen, there now stands only Iran against the Jewish state of Israel.
The Assad family has controlled Syria since 1970, 54 years, so this marks a great change in the geopolitics of the Middle East.
What will never be admitted by the System parties is that we have been, for decades, in a deliberately-managed slow decline, which is now become a faster decline; in fact a slide. It is very much connected with mass immigration (the migration-invasion), and with the agenda of making the UK a multikulti, multiracial, and fairly poor country, with most of the economic benefit of its economy going to about 5%, if not 1%, of the population. That 1%, or even 5%, is mainly, though not exclusively, non-European. It includes many of “the usual suspects” (((them))).

“He had a brilliant mind, enjoyed cooking, loved drawing, and was highly skilled in art. He was an amazing family man and would always put other people first. He loved his grandchildren, and in turn, they adored our dad. He was totally devoted to our mum and loved her beyond what words can describe.“
“British Transport Police officers were called to Ilford Station following reports of a serious assault on Wednesday. Paramedics and members of the Air Ambulance attended, and Jorge was rushed to hospital with serious head injuries.

“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?].

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer BLASTS Kemi Badenoch for being the ‘cheerleader’ of mass migration

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.
My experience with having had 4 bikes stolen in London, is the Police are 100% ….not interested. I recovered one because I spotted it tied up whilst driving through Tooting. Other time we had clrar CCTV image of face, but not interested.
This of course goes far beyond “mere” theft of bicycles.
A couple of years ago, my Australian niece, in her early twenties and —at the time— living for a couple of years in London, decided to start cycling from her London flat (West Kensington) to her office (West End). A brave and perhaps unwise decision. All went well until, one fine summer day, a car hit her not very far from her home, at a busy intersection. A place where there are shops, cafes and, therefore, cctv. She was knocked off her bike, and left in the road. The driver sped off. Thankfully, she had no serious injuries; bruises and cuts, mainly.
My niece did report the incident (it may be that passers-by did too, at the time). The police did nothing, absolutely nothing, despite the fact that this was a hit and run vehicle crime which could well have been more serious, even a fatality. They did not even collect cctv, despite the time of the “accident” (crime) being known to within a few minutes. Useless.
Another crime: I know that I have blogged about this previously, but my regular readers will please grant me this indulgence.
A couple of years ago, in early 2023, a wheel was stolen from my car. Local people were able to provide me with some good leads as to the likely thief or his connections. I passed that information on to the police online and via telephone (they did not turn up at all in person, despite likely DNA evidence or fingerprints left on a jack). Nothing happened. No action, no investigation. Useless people.
Imagine my surprise, then (and as I later discovered), that the uniformed constable (from Hampshire Constabulary) who was in everyday charge of the relevant “neighbourhood crime team”, turned out to be the very same policeman who, together with a female colleague, had turned up, at my now very humble home, and on my birthday, in 2021, some 18 months previously, having been asked to do so by Gloucestershire Police at the behest of one Stephen Silverman, the self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” at the fanatical pro-Israel Jewish pressure-group called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”.
Silverman’s malicious, and completely false, complaint to the police against me (on the ground of “racial harassment”) is detailed here:
Well, nothing came of that attempted perversion of the course of justice by Silverman, but he has never been charged (((why?))). Au contraire— the tiny but well-funded “CAA” cabal simply persuaded (via direct political pressure and interference) the Wessex Crown —or Clown— Prosecution Service (Wessex CPS) to prosecute me on a completely different legal basis, and in respect of (small parts of) 5 blog posts, out of the, at the time, well over 1,500 blog posts published from late 2016 to early 2023.
My free speech trial in late 2023, my sentencing hearing in March 2024, and the aftermath of the trial and sentencing are detailed here:
The same policeman already noted above in today’s blog and in those other days’ blogs, turned up at every hearing of my “case”— first appearance in June or July 2023, a later “case management” appearance when the trial was deferred, the one-day trial, the sentencing hearing (and another hearing prior to sentence when the “Clown” Prosecutor made a doomed attempt to give my “case” a “hate crime” uplift). Four or maybe even five hearings; every time, that policeman was there, sitting in the waiting area and at the back of the court (he did give evidence, briefly, at the trial, and was equally-briefly cross-examined by me).
So that policeman spent 5 days on attending court, related to my quite pointless trial, as well as (with other “guardians of law and order”) a number of days cobbling together the huge amount of material required by the Clown Prosecution Service. Also, parts of other days in 2021, wasted on Silverman’s completely false and malicious allegation that he was “racially harassed” by me (I did not know his address, or his telephone number or email, and had never once spoken to him, or even seen him, still less confronted him).
Days which that policeman and his colleagues might have used more productively, dealing with real crime and/or investigating Silverman’s 2021 attempt to pervert the course of justice.
Incidentally, Silverman, despite now living in Gloucestershire (prior to that, in Essex), made the fairly long journey to Southampton Magistrates’ Court both for my trial and for the sentencing hearing, though he slunk out on the latter occasion once he realized that the sentence (a 9-month “community order” and £734 costs etc) was not going to be as severe as he and his horrible little “CAA” cabal had hoped.
I should add that, on one of the preliminary days in court, in summer 2023, a different “CAA” creature turned up to snoop, a kind of bearded and very long-haired near-dwarf, like something out of Lord of the Rings.
Well, there it is. The police politicized, suborned (along with the Clown Prosecution Service) and apparently incapable of doing their proper job, while behaving as a so-far relatively velvet-glove and poundshop Stasi.

🔴Bogie Yaalon — ex-Likud, ex defense minister, ex-Netanyahu ally turned firebrand critic— says that ethnic cleansing is taking place now in Gaza. Says (correctly) that government is carrying out extremist policy opposed by large majority of public. https://t.co/CbwngQAWpg
Even many of the hard-core Zionist Jews seem to be opposed to the ethnic cleansing Israel is continuing to carry out in Gaza.
Some of those who are most in favour of the ethnic cleansing and/or genocidal policies of the Netanyahu government seem to be, looking at Twitter/X, Jews living in the UK. They will be the very same Jews who are constantly trying to destroy free speech in this country, as seen in, inter alia, my own free speech trial (trials, if you include the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal which wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred me at the behest of the Jew-Zionist lobby in late 2016: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/).

It was obvious before they even took power that Labour’s “plan” wouldn’t work
Anyway, what Goodwin is omitting to add is that the importation of non-Europeans into the UK and the rest of Europe is a planned and evil strategy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.
Starmer has no more intention of stopping the migration-invasion than did Sunak, Johnson, or the others.
The Home Office has been concealing that kind of data for not only years but for decades. I blogged, several years ago, about the experience I had when a superannuated “first six” [months] Bar pupil (trainee) in early 1992, and when my “pupilmaster” (supervisor, mentor, lager-buyer…) had a trial involving Arab Gypsies originally from North Africa, of whom the Home Office were aware, and who (a clan of about 5,000 in and by London) lived (and no doubt still live) from thieving, begging, and by accessing the social security system. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/08/03/first-steal-a-chicken/.
That other person, talking to Goodwin, talks about Starmer’s “loveless majority“. It may have a Commons majority, by reason of the ludicrously unfair and illogical voting system in the UK, but it has and had no popular vote majority, and its plurality of votes, in percentage terms, is one of the lowest ever— 33.7%, only just a third of those who voted; 4 out of every 12. Over 40% of the eligible electorate did not vote. Only 4 in every 20 people eligible to vote voted for Labour and Starmer.
Labour are no longer the party of the working class people from the industrial towns of the UK. They are now the party of the woke dinner party set.
Both main System parties are hanging on only because of a voting system that is basically binary. Tweedledum/Tweedledee. Despite that, they are both going down. Reform UK may be a poor alternative, but is a straw at which many will clutch between now and 2029.
“Over the four years of data, released by the MoJ in a parliamentary question, foreign offenders were responsible for around 40,000 crimes”
“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.
