Apply that principle to Jews (and others) who wave Israeli flags at public demonstrations or, indeed, have the Israeli flag projected onto the facade of 10, Downing Street (both Starmer-stein and that little Indian money-juggler, Sunak, did that while holding the office of Prime Minister of this country).

Interview with George Galloway
Worth watching.
Galloway tweeted, more than once, in a very hostile way against me some years ago, and he is a bit of a “grifter”, and also a bit of a hypocrite, but at least is anti-Israel (though he has been known to parrot Jew-Zionist-invented rubbish about the “holocaust” farrago etc. His ideology is a kind of pro-Muslim “anti-racist” pseudo-socialism, not very interesting, but I always try to hold the “moral high ground”, so have republished the interview shown.

Doesn’t mean anything’s going to change with their election, Matt. More establishment, managed decline…just with a few bones thrown here and there to the masses, to keep everybody sedated.
288,000 members must give Reform UK a huge income from subscriptions alone. Reform charges £25-£50+ for members and supporters, so must be taking in (even without donations etc) at least £9M a year. Pretty solid.
That second tweeter is right, though. Reform will not remove or eliminate any but “illegal” migrants (the rubber boat ones, mainly), will not remove or eliminate any already granted asylum, will not remove or eliminate the other non-Europeans in the UK (not even the criminal/terrorist elements) and will not move towards an ethnostate.
Add to that Reform’s heavily pro-Israel tendency, and its finance-capital bias, and it can be seen that Reform’s utility lies only in being a convenient battering-ram via which to smash the existing System parties. Later, Reform will also have to go. Social-national people will then come to the fore.

The Prime Minister of the UK is on his last, desperate political legs.
So they decide to force the narrative that we’re on the “brink of war” with Russia & the NHS, they vowed to “Save” is about to collapse under pressure. Again.
Anyone who has had recent contact (say, since 2010) with the NHS knows that it is, increasingly, a skeleton service run largely for the benefit of those working in it, especially the doctors and administrators. That is why it is so sickening to hear a dishonest and incompetent Friends of Israel political fraud such as Rachel Reeves mouthing the now-usual Labour Party platitudes about “our NHS” etc. (cf. “our communities“…).
Talking point
Sad. Unnecessary. Jacinda Ardern is treacherous and evil, but now not in power, and anyway only one of several to blame for the decline.
Good grief. I went through there once or twice, though over 40 years ago. Seemed a peaceful little place then (i.e. before invaded by untermenschen). They make a good beer there, Herforder Pils. In fact, at that time, you could buy it in some UK supermarkets too, in bottles.

That poll translates to about 359 Reform UK MPs, i.e. a substantial Commons majority. 124 Lab, 70 LibDems, 34 SNP, 29 Cons.
So no real change in public sentiment. Reform way ahead, Labour as weak official Opposition from 2028 or 2029, and Conservative Party washed up, a rump of 29 MPs from areas, mostly in southern England, where almost all voters are not-poor pensioners.

The Conservative Party has been very slow to understand that the real British people, though in some constituencies willing to countenance an MP who is black, brown, Chinese, or whatever, will not stand still for a non-white Prime Minister. It seems that the Sunak debacle of 2024 has not led to greater understanding.
Even were Kemi Badenoch far more intelligent and capable than she is, she would still be basically unelectable.
The lady tweeter above, who was once employed by her (now ex-) husband, a Conservative MP, via his MP expenses, wants the Con Party “to stand up for the disabled“, but the Con Party government she still supports, under David Cameron-Levita, demonized disabled people, and let loose the part-Jap sadist, fraudster and expenses cheat, Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, aided by the Jew “lord”, Freud, to do his worst.
At the same time, that lady, Fiona-Natasha Syms, wants the State Pension “Triple Lock” to be removed, thus making all pensioners (many of whom have medical conditions but not all of whom receive money in respect of those conditions) poorer overnight.
Bearing in mind the electoral power of the “grey vote” (pensioners and those within 5-10 years of State Pension age— currently 66), taking away the Triple Lock would be suicide, whether for Lab or Con. Sunak did it for one year only, reinstalled it the next year, but the trust was gone. The Con Party has not recovered, and I doubt whether it ever will.
The lady in question seems to live in a dream world in which the British people want a government of the so-called “centre ground” (presumably, one similar to that of 2010-2015, which she liked— was that “centre-ground”?). She even pretends that she has an organization for that purpose, which she calls “Moderates”, and which (as far as I can see) does not even exist outside her own mind.
When times become desperate, the people seek more and more radical solutions. New wine cannot be put into old bottles. THAT is why Reform UK is riding high, despite its mostly underwhelming personnel and policies. The voters, especially the real British voters, mostly have binned the old System parties. Reform is the default choice. Behind that, though, you can see the “Overton Window” shifting almost as you look, like those tropical plants that grow so fast that their growth can almost be seen with the naked eye.

Late thoughts about Ed Davey and the LibDem Conference
Only caught a few “highlights”, if such be the bon mot, on TV news.
The age of the LibDem attendees seemed to be, mostly, seventies or thereabouts.
The audience in the hall at Bournemouth appeared (from the few photos seen) to be about 300 people (and that would include many journalists and others).
Ed Davey’s speech, of which I heard/saw a few extracts on TV news, was pretty silly; yapping about the danger of firearms massacres etc. I covered this issue years ago on the blog, pointing out how very few “spree killings” via firearms have ever happened in the UK. Only 3 or 4 over hundreds of years, and one of those was about 15 years after the great restrictions on firearms introduced as a panic measure in the 1990s: see
Overall, I cannot see the LibDems appealing to many people, but their concentration of support in 50-100 constituencies should see them maintain their presently quite high number of MPs, looking at the collapse of the Conservative Party.
The Second World War broke out on this day 86 years ago, when Britain and France declared war on National Socialist Germany.
The Second World War was disastrous in so many ways. The devastation of much of Europe and Russia (the latter taken as sui generis), the death and overall misery inflicted on millions of people, the advance of Stalinism into Central Europe, the destruction of the German Reich (the only European power almost free of Jewish influence and control). Then there was the economic damage across Europe. Six years of a war economy.
Beyond the above, the Second World War had consequences arguably even more disastrous. The fall of European rule, or slow abandonment of European imperial and quasi-imperial power over most of Africa, much of Asia, parts of Latin America etc. That led in turn to large-scale civil conflicts, regional wars by the newly-independent states (as with India-Pakistan), a huge increase in urbanization, enormous environmental damage, deforestation, extinction of wildlife etc.
Latterly, also the flooding of Europe with “refugees” and economic migrants from across the more backward parts of the world.
It just goes on.
Now, in 2025, 80 years after the end of that disastrous conflict, we see the possibility of a new “world war”. Siren voices in the UK, USA, France etc call for war with Russia, even with China, as well as against smaller states.
There are few “statesmen” around, certainly not in the West, but all political leaders and commentators should think twice and thrice before placing their weight on the scales in favour of war, particularly when the ostensible casus belli is the fake “state” of Kiev-regime Ukraine, a country under the control of a Jew-Zionist cabal which has banned elections indefinitely, banned opposition parties, banned trade unions, arrested or killed dissidents; the army of which is manned by ill-trained troops often abducted on the streets and forced to serve. A brutal, corrupt, and shambolic regime, ruling a “state” which did not even exist 35 years ago.
Of course, “world wars” are a misnomer. Large parts of the world were not directly affected by the Second World War while it was ongoing; the actual destruction was largely confined to parts of Europe, parts of Russia, parts of North Africa, parts of Asia. Vast areas of the world technically “at war” never saw a battle. Even in Europe, there were neutral countries which saw no actual fighting or bombing: Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Sweden.
Today, though, we are in a world overshadowed by nuclear weapons. Still, it may be that, should the worst happen, life will eventually resume. Let us hope so.
In the meantime, let us also hope that the voices calling for war are silenced.

Boris destroyed and betrayed Britain. He imposed masses of low-skill, low-wage, non-European migration, making us poorer & more divided. He even removed the need for British firms to advertise jobs in Britain first. I'd take @ZiaYusufUK + Reform any day of the week over that. https://t.co/BSo7agZaxF
That buffoon, Clarke, thinks that “Boris”-idiot is a “leader“. Well, no, he is not. He is just an over-entitled silver-(plated)-spoon psychopath who should have been locked in a box decades ago and kept there.
“Boris” Johnson was puffed to absurdity by a supine Press and TV over two decades and more, largely because he has always been connected to the Jewish lobby and Israel (and is himself part-Jew). The public were told what a great brain he was or is, how educated and informed he is or was, what a “leader” he was or is etc. All lies. Stupid schoolboy ideas at best (bridges over the Irish Sea, an island airport between Kent and Essex etc etc), no ideals at all, no ability to inspire or even administer, no honour, no honesty…just a big nothing. A kind of public entertainer.
“Boris”-idiot never had either the ability or the character to be a prime minister; he also lacked (and lacks) any useful or realistic ideas.
I shall add one thing, that I noticed, and noted on the blog, years ago: “Boris” Johnson is no strong-willed leader; in fact he is no kind of leader at all and, far from imposing his will on people, organizations, countries, events, is and was pushed around by all of those.
As for Clarke, he is a know-nothing who, until selected and elected as an MP in 2017, at age 32, had never really had a job. He lost his seat in 2024 and is now director of one of those Jewish-lobby-connected fake think-tanks, in this case called “Onward”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Clarke_(politician).
I suppose that Clarke thinks that he can regain his seat at Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland, lost to Labour in 2024 by only 214 votes. That seems unlikely to me, looking at the collapse of support for a —daily less credible— Conservative Party; also, the seemingly irresistible rise of Reform UK (which did not contest that seat in 2024).
The *very first thing* the new leader of the "liberal" Greens in the UK does is publicly endorse the arrest of a comedian for sharing gender critical views. This is where radical "progressive" authoritarianism leads: shut down anybody who disagrees with them. Be warned.
One Zack Polanski, apparently. Are you surprised? I have little doubt that (((Polanski))) also supports the idea of the UK having “holocaust” “denial” heresy laws too, repressive laws similar to those in France, Germany, and elsewhere. So far we have managed to avoid such police-state nonsense, at least as far as examination of history is concerned.
Of course, the Greens in the UK are a joke party, supposedly environmentally-conscious yet supportive of the mass immigration which is trashing the environment.
The Greens are only about 10% in the polls; were Labour under Starmer-stein not such a shambles, the 10% would be about 5%, if that.
In case you’re wondering what is happening in the UK, the Labour prime minister who told Donald Trump “we don’t have a free speech problem” is now criticising police for sending five armed officers to arrest a comedian who shared gender critical views on Twitter/X.
The moneygrubbing, and petty corruption, of this Labour Friends of Israel government were both evident from the start, of course.

As Galloway implies and indeed expresses, Angela Rayner’s political career, which has done nothing for the British people, has enriched the woman herself. In fact, she personifies the change in the demographic, as part of the working class or proletariat became, after the 1970s, the contemporary “chavscum” element (or latter-day British lumpenproletariat), with its grabbing of whatever is going free, its tattoos (even for women), its “vaping”, the underage pregnancies, and so on.
Galloway got his point across clearly without having to resort to the obvious (though true) comment that Angela Rayner and her colleagues are “filling their boots” while they can.

Well, not all of that meets with my favour, but there it is…
“You have my absolute word that a reform government will repeal the Online Safety Act.”
As I blogged previously, in relation to both the USA election and Labour’s present situation in the UK.
The difference lies in the fact that the people of the UK had 14 years of inept “Conservative” misgovernment 2010-2024, and the voters wanted the Cons out, at almost any price.
Having said that, and as previously noted several times on the blog, out of every 20 eligible voters in the UK at GE 2024, and in rough figures, about 8 were so disenchanted with the whole political process, with society, and with the political choices available, that they voted with their feet (did not vote at all).
For me, the most significant figures would be the 8 out of 20 who did not vote, and the 2 that voted Reform UK.
Obviously, Labour, Starmer-Labour, has little real popular mandate, particularly in view of the fact that Labour’s “4 out of 20” or “4 out of 12” would have included those who, faced with a Lab-Con fight in many constituencies, voted Lab to do down the Cons; the same, in reverse, may also be true, though to a lesser extent; those who voted Con to prevent Lab from winning. Negative voting.
There is at present, or as yet, no sign of a real social-national party emerging in the UK.
I think that Matt Goodwin may be right, i.e. that Reform UK will emerge as the real opposition to Labour in the public mind.
Reform UK now has 5 MPs, though all are rather underwhelming. Reform should of course (were the electoral system not both illogical and unfair) have had about 93 MPs, not the mere 5 awarded to them under FPTP.
It is ridiculous that a party, Reform UK, can get 14.29% of the popular vote and end up with 5 MPs, and that another party, the LibDems, can be voted for by only 12.22%, yet end up with 72 MPs! That does offend the still quite strong sense of fairness and fair play in this country.
Come to that, Labour itself captured only 33.7% of the popular vote, not greatly more than double the vote of Reform UK, yet now has 411 MPs.
A pure proportional-voting system would have given Labour 219 MPs, the Conservative Party 154, Reform UK 93, LibDems 79, and Green Party 42.
In other words, under pure proportional voting, on GE 2024 vote figures, the UK would still be under a Labour Party government, but it would be a minority one.
In practice, 320 MPs give a UK government a Commons majority. Under the proportional-voting scenario, and in order to get over the line, Labour would have been required to compact with either the Conservative Party, or with Reform UK, or with both the LibDems and Greens. I suppose that that last choice would have been the most likely— Labour with LibDem and Green support.
Having said that, were there a fairer and more proportional voting system in the UK, voters would be able to cast their votes knowing that, unless they were to vote Monster Raving Loony Party or the like, their votes would almost certainly result in at least one MP of their preference getting elected. On GE 2024 figures, even George Galloway’s party, Workers’ Party, would have had 4 or 5 MPs in the Commons (0.73% of the popular vote, 210,194 actual votes).
There is little doubt in my mind that, were the UK voting system fairer, most UK voters would not be voting for the System or “legacy” parties. Not only would Reform UK surge forward, but a real social national party might be able to capture both the imagination and the votes of the British people. That, of course, is why System politicians want to retain the present voting set-up.

That is about Simon Myerson, Leeds-based barrister and one of the “CAA” and “UKLFI” Jew-Zionist crowd, who was sacked as a Recorder (p/t judge) several months ago as a consequence of his extremely unpleasant and persistent social media trolling.
According to Myerson, the terrible slaughter visited upon the people of Gaza is, “legally”, not “genocide”, presumably because not all Gazans have been killed or wounded (“only” 150,000+, i.e. about a tenth of the population), and because the Israelis at least claim not to intend eliminating all Gazans or other Palestinian Arabs from Israel/Palestine.
Well, could not a similar claim, mutatis mutandis, be made by Germany about the Europe-resident Jews of the early 1940s?
Not my area of law (when I had “areas of law”). In any case, my own view of the Gaza slaughter is not based on some “dancing on a pin” legal sophistry. I say, just look at what the Israelis have been doing, and what they continue to do. Whether it is called “genocide” or not is irrelevant, really.
I have noticed that some of the non-Jews (who are pro-Jew-Zionist or, maybe better said, pro-Israel), and some of those who are part-Jew (what the Reich termed Mischlingen) but Zionist, are actually more fanatical than many of those who are fully-Jewish. Strange. That phenomenon has been covered on the blog, on this very popular page: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/.

The System is now getting very worried about the level of support being shown even for Reform UK, a basically small-c conservative-type party. The anti-Reform UK rhetoric is now close to that displayed in the past against more social-national parties such as the BNP and, further back still, the National Front.
The System thinking must be, “if even Reform UK can be so disruptive, how more so would be a credible and genuinely social-national party?“
That anti-Reform UK propaganda is broadcast as Reform UK reaches heights of popular support few thought that it would or could reach.
Some polls are putting Reform UK as high as 20%, and all are putting it well above 15%, the average now being around 17%.
Meanwhile, support for the Conservative Party has dropped to as low as 18%, and may go even lower. I have just yesterday heard admittedly anecdotal evidence that, in my own local area (in coastal Hampshire, and one of the most heavily-Con in England), lifelong Con voters are planning to vote anywhere other than Con or Labour. Many, perhaps most (?), are switching to Reform UK, and some to the LibDems.
I was just looking at my blog from about 8 or 9 months ago. I thought then that Reform UK would get a nationwide popular vote of at least 15% and, at the outside, 20%. Seems that I was right (so far).
Estimates of the number of MPs Reform UK might have by 5 July 2024, i.e. once the votes are counted, range from 1 or 2 to as many as 22. A few Reform UK optimists are doubling or even tripling that. It seems very open, with less than a week to go.
I doubt whether the Channel 4 undercover silliness will change the minds of many people planning to vote Reform UK, as witness the tweets below:
I doubt that more than a few hundred of the voters of Clacton will have even seen the “expose”. In any case, the main person shown was merely a volunteer. It may even be that some people will be more inclined to vote for Reform after having seen the Channel 4 piece. You never know.
There is also the point that postal voting has already taken place. Many of the older and/or disabled British voters, as at Clacton, will by now have voted.
Farage seems nailed-on to win at Clacton, as far as I can see. The Conservative Party candidate has not even been seen (by me anyway) on TV or online, while the young African standing as Labour MP has apparently been redeployed to help another Labour candidate, in the West Midlands, and has thus left the field of battle at Clacton.
I can only suppose that Starmer decided that only the Con candidate had any chance of beating Farage, having scored 72.3% in 2019, so scaled back the Labour effort at Clacton to zero for nakedly tactical reasons.
Also, the fact that Labour deliberately chose an African for its candidate at Clacton, of all places, would be likely to prompt a surge in support for Reform UK. Anyway, he’s gone elsewhere, and will probably not be seen at Clacton until the count on Election Night. I still think that he might lose his deposit.
As blogged previously, while I am not a Reform UK supporter, as such, its existence moves the “Overton Window” a bit, at the very least, and will help to break down the “two main parties” scam.
The public’s view of the mostly System politicians is not favourable. Even Starmer, on the crest of his “popularity by default”, is only viewed favourably by just over a third of voters.
Look at Sunak. Only 19%, the same as the Conservative Party. I begin to wonder whether previously undecided voters will actually start to pile in against the Conservative Party now, or at the last minute, thus reducing the Conservative vote to somewhere below that 19%, maybe as low as 16%. We shall know in 6 days’ time.

I should say “80% that’s broken“, not “everything“. Otherwise, I agree.

Convinced whatever they say it's been deliberate. If labour implode off a large majority then the 2030 great reset and one world government is doing its thing.
I tend to agree, up to a point, with that last tweeter. Yes, the Cons are doomed, but look at what the Labour Party now is! A mixture of Blair-Brown-style fake communitarian rhetoric, “woke” craziness, “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) partisanship, and pro-Israel-ism, combined with pro-Jewish lobby repression of free speech and, in terms of domestic policy, almost indistinguishable in reality from the policies of the Conservative Party.
Incidentally, it is Bicester and Woodstock, a new constituency, not just Woodstock. That may explain the close polling.
Even Reform UK has more support among the under-30s in the UK, especially in England, than many suppose. A real social-national party might be able to capture far more hearts and minds.
This really is stunning. If accurate, it may mean a House of Commons with 483 Labour MPs (overall majority 316), 73 LibDems, 27 Reform UK, and only 22 Con Party MPs (SNP 18, Green 4 etc). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.
It would mean the LibDems as official Opposition, and Reform UK with several more MPs (27 in toto) than the rump of the old Conservative Party (22), which would not be the Opposition, not even third party, but a poor fourth. Finished. Washed-up.
I have yet to meet, in the past month or even longer, even one person who expresses an intention to vote Con. There may be some people I meet who intend to vote Con without my knowing it, of course; I meet relatively few people, and rarely talk directly about politics with most of those that I do meet. All the same…
In fact, and by my use of Electoral Calculus, it may be that, were Reform UK to poll at 24%, only 3 points higher than in this latest poll, Reform could edge the LibDems out of second place, which would mean Reform UK as the official Opposition, and Farage as Leader of the Opposition! Were that to happen, I should have to eat my words of a year or two ago (dismissing him as not such an effective politician despite his oratorical and mass media skills).

“I think it’s important that all candidates in this election come out clearly and say that antisemitism, racism and fascist views have absolutely no place in modern Britain.

[Bournemouth Echo]
Well, while I would never condone spitting at (or for that matter, throwing milkshakes over) people (as a Labour supporter did to Farage recently), if a candidate wants to knock on people’s doors to engage them in political debate, he must expect some of his “victims” to cut up rough, bearing in mind what the System parties have been doing to this country.

“Taurus missiles could have a significant impact on Ukraine’s ability to defend itself, – Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski supported Ukraine in its desire to obtain the Taurus and accused Germany of indecisiveness in supplying new weapons systems to the war zone.
“Thanks to cruise missiles from other countries, the Ukrainians have already convinced the Russians to move their logistics bases, such as ammunition depots, far behind the front line. And the German missiles will force them to move even further,” he said.“
As for those missiles, yes, they would assist the Kiev regime’s war effort, but its war is now lost anyway— insufficient soldiers, arms, and ammunition, and collapsing morale. If Germany supplies such missiles, not only Kiev might become a major target for —far more powerful— Russian missiles, but also other cities; even Berlin itself. Don’t stoke the fires of war.

George Galloway may heroically stand up for the Palestinians, but will he stand up for the British who are being rapidly replaced in Britain? Will he stand up for Sam Melia who has been unjustly imprisoned for simply speaking out about it? If not, he is a total fraud. https://t.co/AjkObUAvj2
Galloway is, to some extent, a kind of fraud and, to the extent that he is not, stands mainly for the Muslim bloc, not for white people in the UK (the people formerly known as “British”). He used to block me on Twitter, when I still had a Twitter account (the Jewish lobby, after a long campaign, had Twitter expel me in 2018).
I was amused and pleased to see Galloway’s recent by-election victory, which I anticipated on the blog, but he has nothing to say to the British people.
In 1998, I lived for three months in Egypt and, for the entire lunar month of Ramadan, was staying at Mamoura Beach, a suburb of Alexandria, where I took a flat. I believe in “when in Rome, do as the Romans do” (within reason), but not all reciprocate.
Not that I fasted like the Arabs, but I ate and drank mostly at home; very occasionally, I would go in late afternoon to the (deserted) McDonald’s in Mamoura Beach, a short walk away, for a “Filet-o-fish” or apple pie; they would seat me in a place which could not be seen from the street. McDonalds is a “restaurant” very rarely used by me in the UK, but that suburb had no other cafes.

[Sam Melia and Laura Towler, of Patriotic Alternative]
Regular readers of the blog will be aware that I have blogged in recent days about the very unjust prosecution, conviction, and sentence visited upon Sam Melia and, consequently, upon his wife, Laura Towler, and their children (one very young, the other expected to be born sometime in the next few weeks).
I am not a member of Patriotic Alternative, and am personally unacquainted with the couple, but this is a disgraceful persecution, not merely an unjust prosecution.
I often criticize Toby Young and his “Free Speech Union” (for turning a blind eye when social-national people such as Alison Chabloz, “Sven Longshanks”, and indeed me, are harried by the State at the behest of the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby), but credit where due— even Toby Young has criticized this latest curb on freedom of expression: see https://www.noticer.news/sam-melia-jailed-two-years-for-sticker-campaign-patriotic-alternative/.
Prior to his sentencing, Sam Melia made a statement, alongside Laura Towler, and Mark Collett; Laura Towler also made a brave and defiant statement after her husband had been taken away:
The crowdfunder referred to by Sam Melia, set up mainly to support his wife and children during his involuntary absence, has now reached, as of time of writing, £52,331. The more the better. These seem to me to be good people. Help these people and, at the same time, stick it to the System. Minimum donation is £4.
Incidentally, Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch) is still in prison, inter alia for having criticized “the usual suspects” on his podcasts. He too has a crowdfunder, in order to help him both in prison and upon release (probably around August 2024). https://www.givesendgo.com/SupportSven.
As regular readers will also know, I myself am also to be sentenced (next week) (for having blogged the truth over the past years).

The corrupt “two main parties” scam is now trying to criminalize anything and everything they decide to label “extremist”. Fight it.
It isn't centrist or moderate to break every record on net migration, year after year, and then refuse to monitor the results of your policy decision. It's extremism, driven by ideology. https://t.co/pRR7CLFoSa
I am in absolute disbelief, how are we now a country that refuses to give the data to its people specially because they ‘don’t want it to inflame tensions’? I cannot possibly be reading this right, surely?
Behind that, the reason is because the System has an agenda: google “Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan”.
You're undoubtedly correct. The really big question, therefore, is why DO successive governments and civil servants support such insanely high immigration figures, given the enormous strain it puts on the economy? I truly have no idea, unless the Kalergi plan is really true 😦
They did this with GCSE results based on country background of kids about ten years ago, the results showed what everybody already knew so they simply disappeared in the hope nobody would notice.
Islamism is only one existential threat to Britain. (Political) Zionism is another, mass immigration and/or “migration-invasion” by non-Europeans generally is yet another. Societal breakdown and the allied cultural trash is another. There are others too. Those strands are woven together.
Goodwin is very pro-Israel, very pro the Jewish/Zionist lobby. He makes some good (though very obvious) points about UK society and politics, but his limited ideological perspective leads him to partly-incorrect conclusions, as in his espousal of the “controlled opposition” Reform UK party.
In my pre-polling day look at the by-election, I picked Galloway (“Workers Party”) as the winner; not very difficult under the circumstances— most journalists also thought that Galloway would win, as did the bookmakers.
Galloway scored 39.7%; oddly enough, exactly the same figure as the understandably poor turnout, which was also 39.7%. In other words, Galloway was elected via the votes of about 15% of the whole eligible electorate.
I went wrong on second place. I thought that Azhar Ali, the disowned Labour candidate, would still manage a second place on the basis that he is local, a councillor, a Pakistani Muslim and, until Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer sacked him, the official candidate of the Labour Party.
In fact, Ali scored only 7.7% and a 4th place. I attribute that largely to his sacking, which means that he will not be the Labour candidate in the upcoming 2024 General Election. Also, to the fact that he climbed down and “apologised” to Starmer and the Israel lobby. In a word, he lost face, badly, by doing that. I presume that his 7.7% reflects a personal vote, mainly.
I also thought, though speculatively, that the LibDems might do rather better than they did, based on their previous (though pre-2015) showings in the constituency, and on their perhaps being a magnet for anti-Government white (English) votes in Rochdale. Not so. Seems that the LibDems are very much a spent force outside a few parts of southern England.
The LibDem vote was only 7%.
The poor turnout sank the LibDem cause in Rochdale. It is pretty clear that the Pakistanis voted but the English/white voters mostly did not. The Pakistani population of the constituency is somewhere in the 30%-40% range. Almost all Pakistanis voted (it can be surmised), but few English/white people bothered.
The Conservative Party candidate never had a chance. This government is as unpopular as any has been in the past century or more, and Rochdale has not elected a Conservative since 1955.
Having said that, the attitude of the candidate cannot have helped. He decided to prioritize his holiday over campaigning, jetting off to the sun only a week or so before Polling Day!
Ellison’s 12% vote (3rd place) is around where my initial thought about the by-election, a couple of weeks ago, put him (I thought maybe 15%), but better than my most recent speculation (a day or two ago, I thought the Con vote might go as low as 5%).
Finally (leaving aside the five candidates who lost their deposit, none scoring higher than 1.7%), there is Reform UK. Oh dear…
As I wrote before the by-election, Reform UK must have been mad to take on Danczuk as its candidate. After all, he was the local Labour MP 2010-2017, who was sacked for various personal behavioural problems, and who then tried to hang on as an Independent, getting an embarrassing 1.8% vote at the 2017 General Election.
The toxic tabloid content of Danczuk’s life 2010-2017 with and around his seriously thick then wife, Karen Danczuk (known as “the selfie queen” for her self-portraits posted online, featuring both her cleavage and her buck teeth), sank him in 2017, and will still be (and obviously was) remembered by the voters of Rochdale.
Danczuk’s 6.3% vote at the by-election is about where I thought he would end up.
In my view, Reform UK has rather too much of the “Mickey Mouse” about it, too much of the “wing and a prayer” “Amateur Night” village show, to be considered a serious party.
The political scientist Matt Goodwin has been pushing the idea that Reform UK might overtake the Conservative Party in the polls. Not yet, it seems.
At Rochdale, the Conservative Party candidate managed to get twice the vote of Danczuk and Reform UK, despite not bothering to campaign much, whereas Danczuk tried hard, and was even supported by his leader, Richard Tice, riding a sky-blue battlebus.
The by-election does say something about Reform UK that goes beyond its very silly decision to put up Danczuk as a candidate. If Reform UK was going to capture the mainly white/English protest vote, this by-election would have been the place for that to take off. White English people are a majority, maybe even two-thirds, of the Rochdale constituency, yet most —probably the vast majority— did not bother to vote, and even fewer voted Reform UK.
Some may say that the above is because English people are apathetic. I say that they are apathetic for a reason, or reasons. One, in this case, was because Reform UK’s semi-“libertarian” offering just does not “hit the spot”. White English people want, though in most cases unconsciously, social nationalism, and there is not one party, even a small one, offering or proclaiming that ideology.
What does the by-election say about the Conservative Party in the run-up to GE 2024? Toast. This was the worst Con Party result (12%) at Rochdale since the Blair-Labour years (10.5% in 2005, 13.4% in 2001, 8.8% in 1997). In 2019, the Cons received 31.2%, and even in 2017 28.4%.
So there it is. Angry apathy from the white English voters, angry protest from the Pakistani Muslims, a Government without hope, but an Opposition Labour Party unable to inspire any enthusiasm yet likely to “win” GE 2024 purely by default. Also, an upstart and supposedly “populist” party, Reform UK, that has no real support.
I have said nothing about the victor, Galloway. That is because he is a maverick and, despite the “Workers Party” label, basically a one-man band. Whether he can retain his seat at GE 2024 or not is an open question. Maybe he can.

Galloway must be one of the few, one of the very few MPs who can speak in public without either reading pathetic platitudes from a written crib, or sounding like a speak-your-weight machine, or both.
The symptoms of the slowly-encroaching “woke” global (Western) police state (in the UK, in the EU, elsewhere too) are now seen everywhere; they include my own Jewish-lobby-procured political prosecution and conviction last year (sentencing hearing this month).
When you look at why Simon Danczuk fell from grace, running on a grooming platform was not the best idea. It says everything about Tice's judgement. Especially when, standing as an independent in 2017, Danczuk won a mere 883 votes. He was a lame duck out of the starting gate. (do…
I agree with that. I have no idea what Tice is like as a businessman, though I note that his main work was in a company founded by his grandfather. As a politician, I have no doubt that he is “nbg” (no bloody good). As I blogged some time before the by-election, Tice’s selection of someone as sleazy as Simon Danczuk was a miscall of stunning proportions. As in…you run a “populist”, “new broom”, “clean the Augean Stables” party, so naturally you pick as your candidate someone who was not only sleazy in the sexual sense when an MP but also a grifting freeloader and moneygrubber. An example of the worst of the old parties. No, wait…
How does that work? It doesn’t.
If Tice’s judgment is in question for having, inter alia, picked Danczuk as a candidate, then that, and the by-election result, also brings into question the judgment of political academic, scribbler and blogger Matt Goodwin, who has been boosting Reform UK as a possibly-unstoppable coming political force in the land. Ha…

Unconfirmed reports are saying that Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative has been sentenced in the Crown Court to 2 years in prison for supposed “incitement to racial hatred”.
I did not follow the trial, but I understand that the charge or charges related to the production of (from the little I have read) very innocuously-worded stickers. “Evidence” deemed admissible (presumably going to the Defendant’s intention) included having a picture of Hitler.
The Star Chamber would be proud of England’s 21st Century police, CPS, and judiciary.
As we know, in 2024 Britain, political crime is deemed far more serious than real crime. In a country where crimes of serious violence, or considerable and dishonest acquisition, result often in non-custodial sentences, Sam Melia will now spend about a year in prison basically for having offended or opposed the System and “the usual suspects”.
I have no idea as to whether the plight of his wife, Laura Towler, and their very young child, was taken into account. Seemingly not, or not much. I understand that Laura Towler is presently pregnant with a second child, which will now be born (in the next couple of months) while its father is incarcerated.
I hope that a crowdfunder is soon set up for Melia’s wife and children.
“A huge crowd”? At a guess, 5,000. Maybe, at peak, 10,000.
Russia has ~143M people, so even 10,000 represents only 1 person in every 14,300. Out of the Moscow population of 13M, 1 person out of every 1,300. Somewhere between those two figures, then. 1 person out of every 1,300-14,300 people.
Of course, the authorities have tried to suppress visible support for Navalny, but even if the true figure is 1 out of every 1,300, and even if there are 20 secret supporters for every one on that march, that is still only, at best, 1 out of every 65 inhabitants of Moscow.
Whatever one’s view of Navalny, his percentage of even mild support was in single figures. Maybe 2%, maybe as high as 5%, of the Moscow population; probably no more than 1%, if that, among the whole population of Russia.
Thousands of supporters of #Navalny gathered for his memorial service and funeral in #Moscow despite #Kremlin warnings and a heavy police presence.

That film shows a seemingly larger crowd, but even if my calculations are out by a factor of 10, that would still show a visible and covert ratio of 1 Navalny supporter out of every 6 or 7 people. Significant but not overwhelming.
Anyway, such speculation is a castle in the air in the circumstances.

Mason again. His “political philosophy” comes down to two words: “arrest them“. Nothing more. Neither a socialist nor a pro-capitalist, nor yet anything other than someone cobbling together disparate strands to make one jumbled string of pseudo-philosophy which really comes down to the exercise of State power by those who control it, and against any dissidents or dissenters.
I'm not normally that interested in parliamentary politics. More interesting to see what everyone else in the country is thinking and doing.
But I will make an exception. It's good to see George Galloway is an MP while Paul Mason isn't. Mason's piss is boiling nicely. https://t.co/NC8j1otTRH
Mason’s sheer bile is obvious to almost everyone but Mason himself. Mason’s ideal living environment would be somewhere such as the DDR, circa 1970. Maybe as a Stasi-connected academic in a concrete provincial university.
“Left”/”Right” are terms I never myself use. Not helpful or meaningful. Look at Mason, though, playing the role of “licensed revolutionary”. The police seem uninterested in talking to him about any inflammatory outbursts…

Peter Oborne mentions almost every group but the Jewish lobby; not even “Zionists”; only “Israel”. I can only imagine (joking slightly) that he is afraid of being blackballed by one of his clubs (the Garrick? I am only guessing).
Slightly disappointing by Oborne, who has in the past made interesting anti-Israel lobby documentaries: see
What (((group))) is behind Starmer? What group is behind Sunak? What group is behind “Reform UK”, Farage, Tice etc? Yes, the Israel lobby, but of what (in the UK) is that composed?…
In some ways, Oborne’s 15-minute tweet above is very hardhitting, but it pulls a few punches when it comes to “a certain group” in UK society.
Oborne refers to the danger of the “far right” etc. In fact, any danger is actually from the two superficially opposed groups— Islamists/Zionists.
Announcement from Laura Towler
I happened to see the message below, believed to be a public announcement from Laura Towler of Patriotic Alternative:
“By now you will have heard that my husband Sam Melia was sentenced today to two years in prison for his intentions behind publishing stickers that the prosecution said were both lawful and truthful.
The sentencing guidelines gave the judge the option of choosing anywhere between 2 years and 6 years, and the minimum was given due to the lack of seriousness regarding the offence. The judge could’ve suspended the sentence (and sent Sam home) at two years, however he chose not to and said the reason why was because he wanted the sentencing to act as a deterrent to other people with the same beliefs.
Before today, Sam met with his Probation Officer who said that Sam was no risk to the public and there was no chance of reoffending, and recommended a community order. The judge chose to ignore this.
The worst case scenario is that Sam will serve 12 months in prison. Potentially, he could serve 6 – 8 months. He is considered low risk and could therefore be on day release from as early as in a few months.
If you take anything from this, let it remind you why we do what we do. We live in a country where our people are attacked by the anti-White state for advocating for their own safety and interests.
I don’t want cuddles and condolences. I don’t want thoughts and prayers. I want you to join me in filling the void that Sam leaves for the next few months. There are no excuses. Not everybody has to be on the front line. There is plenty you can do behind the scenes.
Sam should hold his head up high knowing that he put his head above the parapet when many others dare not. He didn’t back down at any point over the last three years, nor did he take any offer they offered him. He remained defiant for us, and now it’s our turn to repay his sacrifice by carrying his flame until he is back.“
[unconfirmed, but believed to be by Laura Towler]
Another example of how the British jury is now little better than a rubber stamp. As for the judge in question, I prefer not to comment, mainly because I have no wish to transgress the “contempt of Court” rules; in any case, I did not follow the case. There is also the further fact that I myself, in Biblical language, will be “in the same condemnation” in a couple of weeks, being sentenced for —in effect— telling the truth.
“Rishi Sunak has claimed extremist groups in the UK are “trying to tear us apart”, in a hastily arranged Downing Street statement that came hours after George Galloway won a byelection in Rochdale.
Standing outside No 10 late on Friday, the prime minister condemned what he called “a shocking increase in extremist disruption and criminality” after the 7 October massacre by Hamas and the Israeli invasion of Gaza.
He also claimed democracy itself was a target, as he condemned the election of Galloway, who easily won the seat in Rochdale on a platform that focused on anti-Israel sentiment over Gaza.
However, in a sometimes rambling and seemingly contradictory 10-minute address, Sunak made points likely to anger MPs on the right of the Conservative party such as Suella Braverman and Robert Jenrick, who have sought to frame recent tensions as almost entirely the responsibility of Islamist extremists.
Sunak was at pains to stress the recent abuse of Muslim Britons as well as the Jewish community, and to highlight the threat from far-right groups as well as Islamists.“
[The Guardian]
The little Indian money-juggler presently posing as Prime Minister has made a speech in which he conflated “democracy” with “electing System candidates”, in effect.
Sunak calls for no support for “extremism”, yet he does not seem to think it “extreme” to project the Israeli flag onto 10 Downing Street and then to call for support of a war by a huge mechanized army against, mostly, civilians, half of which are under 18 years of age, and about a quarter of whom are undisputedly small children and babies.
So far, the Israeli Jews have killed about 30,000 or so in Gaza, in under 5 months. About half were children.
Starmer, that nasty ideas-free puppet bureaucrat, is no better.
Incidentally, I myself have blogged about both “democracy” and “extremism” in recent years:

Coates was easily put in his place by Galloway. Not worth his salt.
The latest from the bookmakers is that George Galloway (Workers Party) is odds-on to win, followed by (around 6/4) Azhar Ali, the former Labour candidate disowned by Starmer, Azhar Ali therefore being an independent candidate in reality, though “Labour” on the ballot paper. The next in line is the LibDem, trailing the frontrunners at about 65/1. Reform UK (Simon Danczuk) is at 100/1. The rest of the field of 11— 1,000/1.
This is now between Galloway and “Labour” Azhar Ali. Former Labour MP Danczuk only got 1.8% (as Independent) in 2017, after having been sacked. The LibDem may do better than expected, being a white man and alternative to Ali and also to Scotsman George Galloway, whose campaign has been all about Gaza, and whose voters are (90%+) Muslims. Still, if I had to bet, I would probably go with the perceived favourite, Galloway.
The by-election is between two candidates trying to capture the Pakistani Muslim vote. Where do the English voters go? They are still the majority in the constituency, numerically, yet have been frozen out.
Symptomatic of System politics in the UK?
I have no sympathy for Danczuk, and little for Reform UK, but will be interested to see how they go. Had Reform UK put up a better candidate, it might have gone close. As it is, I daresay that the white (English) vote will be split several ways.

Well, there it is. “They” want a war, and are about to launch one.
In fact, Israel already targets (via local volunteers in the UK and elsewhere) anyone opposed to Jewish/Zionist global domination.
I myself am due to be sentenced next month, following my conviction in November 2023 for political “offences” under the notorious “bad law” Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).

What the Israelis are saying about why the Israeli response on 7 October 2023 was at first very slow, and then incompetent (killing Israeli civilians indiscriminately).
Needless to say, the “Pearl Harbor” idea, i.e. that the Israeli leadership knew of the attack plan but allowed it to happen in order to be able to flatten Gaza with a figleaf of justification, is not mooted.

Pollard was granted Israeli citizenship while incarcerated. He relocated to Israel in 2020.
I suppose that the Israelis thought that they owed Pollard something. After all, when he desperately appealed to the Israeli Embassy in Washington —when the FBI was on his tail— the Israeli Embassy guards were ordered to shut the gates and not let him back in. He was then immediately arrested by the FBI. He did 30 years in Federal custody, altogether (inc. 2 years of pre-trial detention).

“[Canadian] Justice Minister Arif Virani has defended a new power in the online harms bill to impose house arrest on someone who is feared to commit a hate crime in the future – even if they have not yet done so already.
The person could be made to wear an electronic tag, if the attorney-general requests it, or ordered by a judge to remain at home, the bill says.
Bill C-63 is designed to curb the proliferation of hate online, but it also establishes a new hate-crime offence, which would carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
Mr. Virani said the hate-crime offence would only be applied if coupled with another crime and the life sentence would only apply in the most serious of cases – not, for example, for mischief to a garage door.
Mr. Virani said the current bill followed studies of the experiences of other countries, including Britain, France and Germany, which have produced similar legislation. Some have had to reverse course after challenges and criticism.
Since it was published on Monday, some lawyers and constitutional experts have raised fears that Bill C-63 could chill free speech.
The bill would allow people to file complaints to the Canadian Human Rights Commission over what they perceive as hate speech online – including, for example, off-colour jokes by comedians. People found guilty of posting hate speech could have to pay victims up to $20,000 in compensation.
But experts including internet law professor Michael Geist have said even a threat of a civil complaint – with a lower burden of proof than a court of law – and a fine could have a chilling effect on freedom of expression.“

Look at what has happened in the UK. Material (comments, cartoons) are supposed to fall into unlawfulness only if “grossly” offensive. In theory, remarks, cartoons merely “offensive” are not unlawful, but in practice one finds (as in my own case last November) that once the police, CPS and courts think that XYZ is “offensive”, then XYZ becomes, almost automatically, “grossly offensive“, and the maker is then convicted accordingly (as I was).
Free speech has then been further chilled, or killed…
Canada is asking for something akin to civil war by enacting tyrannical laws of this sort.

Of the 11 candidates, 4 could be described as Independent. There is a Green, and also a Monster Raving Loony.
Of the 5 more or less serious candidates, the LibLabCon “uniparty” has candidates, and then there is the egregious George Galloway [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Galloway], this time under the banner of the Workers Party, and also Reform UK, represented by Simon Danczuk [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Danczuk], the one-time Labour MP who was a perennial tabloid newspaper story 2010-2017 (along with his seemingly lobotomized then wife, Karen).
The by-election is complicated by the fact that Azhar Ali, the Labour candidate on the ballot paper, was suspended and disowned by Labour for having speculated that Israel may have been involved in the attack on its own citizens in October 2023, a “conspiracy theory” which at first blush seems mad, but less mad when you look at it. A possible “Pearl Harbor” scenario, in which the Israeli leadership may have allowed the Hamas attack from Gaza to take place in order to be able to destroy and then resettle Gaza with Jews.
Leaving that aside, Ali is still a candidate and still, on paper, “Labour”. Indeed, it is possible that, despite all the publicity, quite a few voters will remain unaware that Labour has disowned him; they may vote for him on that basis.
Having said that, Ali will not be Labour’s candidate at GE 2024, so even if he were to be elected this Thursday, he would only be an MP for a few months. That will obviously harm his chances.
It comes as a slight shock to see that George Galloway is only two years older than me. I thought about 10 years or more. He is now 69.
Galloway is far and away the most interesting candidate on the by-election roster. You only have to look at his Wikipedia entry. Indeed, apart from sleazy Danczuk, Galloway is the only candidate at Rochdale who is noted on Wikipedia.
Galloway started as a Labour MP, and has travelled through other parties and profiles to get here, but his anti-Zionism has remained a constant.
An ideologue of sorts, Galloway is not exactly on the same ideological page as me (and he blocked me on Twitter when I still had an account, i.e. up to 2018). He is interested in money, though he plays that down. His net worth is probably in the millions —though I concede that that is a guess— and his income from all sources in recent years has on occasion exceeded £500,000 a year. His RT (Russia Today) show has been sunk by sanctions, but his online broadcasting etc must still bring in a very good sum.
The Workers Party of Britain [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workers_Party_of_Britain] was founded by Galloway himself in 2019, and so far has had no electoral success, though Galloway himself achieved a notable third place at the Batley and Spen by-election in 2021— nearly 22% of the vote.
Other well-known members of the Workers Party include former Arabist diplomat and ambassador Peter Ford [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Ford_(diplomat)], and former Labour MP Chris Williamson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Williamson_(politician)], now a broadcaster on the English-language Iranian channel Press TV. Williamson occasionally retweeted my tweets when I had a Twitter account, though he later and foolishly “blocked” me (like Galloway).
Reform UK must be mad to have allowed Danczuk to be their candidate at Rochdale. He was MP for the constituency from 2010 to 2017, and at peak (2015), under Labour banner, was voted for by 46.1% of the voters who voted, but in 2017 achieved only 1.8% as Independent, once chucked out of Labour. Since then, he has been dumped by Karen Danczuk (or vice-versa), and has married for the third time, to an African from Rwanda.
I should have thought that Reform UK would have selected a candidate of real weight at this interesting by-election, but no…
The constituency is riven by division on racial, ethnic, cultural and religious lines. Also, by the aftermath of the Pakistani “grooming gangs” scandal (sex abuse of white English girls). Further back, there was the scandal of Cyril Smith [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyril_Smith].
I rule out as serious contenders the Monster Raving Loony, the 4 Independents, the Green (who, though still on the ballot paper, has also been disowned by his party for “antisemitism”, and has withdrawn), and (probably) Danczuk/Reform UK.
That leaves Galloway/ Workers Party, Azhar Ali/”Labour”, the LibDem and the Conservative.
In the past, pre-2015, Rochdale was contended for by Labour and the LibDems and, before that, the old Liberal Party. The LibDems fell into 4th place in 2015, after the “Con Coalition” of 2010–2015.
There have been fairly good showings by UKIP and Brexit Party in the past decade, but nothing earth-shattering. Reform UK might have done better, but surely not with Danczuk as the candidate. That’s my view, anyway.
Conservative Party candidates achieved (poor) second place in both 2017 and 2019, but this time the Con has almost no chance, so unpopular is the Sunak government. Also, Sunak is Indian. The 30% of the Rochdale voters that are Asian are mostly Pakistani. The Con candidate seems to be English.
The LibDem has a Scottish name; otherwise, I know nothing of him and cannot see him getting anywhere.
While 60%-70% of the eligible voters are English, it is a question of how many are motivated to vote. In 2019, only 60% of eligible Rochdale voters voted, and that was a higher percentage than most previous recent elections. The assumption, at least, is that the Muslim vote is more powerful, as a bloc, than the actually larger English vote.
The upshot is that this is between “Labour” Azhar Ali and Galloway. Galloway must be favourite to win now that Labour has disowned Ali. The bookmakers certainly think so: at present, Galloway/Workers Party 4/7 favourite; Labour 13/8; LibDems 40/1; Reform UK 50/1; Conservatives 200/1; Greens 1,000/1; others also 1,000/1.
“Byelections are traditionally a chance for voters to lodge a protest vote. But when the people of Rochdale go to the polls on Thursday, they have barely anyone to protest against.
The Labour and Green parties have ditched their candidates. The Conservative was abroad on a long-planned family holiday the week before polling day. The Lib Dem remains, but pulled out of the most high-profile political event, a local BBC radio debate.
The most energetic campaigning last week came instead from the political fringe: George Galloway, serial byelection winner and founder of the Workers Party of Britain, and Simon Danczuk, the town’s former Labour MP who was suspended by the party for sexting a 17-year-old girl and is now standing for Reform UK.
“We don’t deserve this,” said Margaret King, standing outside Marks & Spencer. “This town does not deserve to be this short of anybody decent to vote for.” This time she’s voting for one of the local independents.
“We’ve been Lib Dem for a long time, back to Cyril Smith, but when I think back I can’t believe I voted for him. There’s too many shadows on this town.“
Back in the town centre, people at the Regal Moon were surprised to learn that the Wetherspoons pub was the official headquarters of the Monster Raving Loony party candidate. Some drinkers there raised immigration as an issue, although none considered Reform UK to be an option. “Danczuk has been here before and he didn’t do anything then,” said David Brierley, after complaining how much the town’s ethnic makeup has changed.”

A real social-national party might have won this contest.
“Labour is being warned by a powerful alliance of thinktanks and charities that poverty will soar if it comes to power and then fails to spend many billions of pounds on welfare reform to help those struggling most with the cost of living.
Poverty and extreme financial hardship have become acute problems,” the new report says. “With wages at a standstill over the last decade, recent soaring prices came at a time when many households were already struggling to meet essential costs. While some have seen their earnings increase in the period since the cost of living crisis started, for many the damage had already been done. Use of foodbanks has reached unprecedented levels, and there has been a sharp rise in households taking out loans to cover bills and daily spending.”
It says that “people on low incomes too often cycle between low-paid, insecure roles and stints of unemployment” with the number of “economically inactive” people (those out of work and not actively looking for work) at record levels. “For too long, our welfare state has taken a punitive approach, ignoring individual motivations and challenges and wasting resources on approaches to that simply don’t work.”

Iain Dunce Duncan Smith is only one of the (most) guilty System freeloaders and oppressors of the disabled etc in the UK. He has never been punished.

A truly jaw-dropping piece on the long list of political failures that led to Birmingham Council going bust. What utter incompetence.https://t.co/3f8MbskJHg
Birmingham is or was a major hub of the sinister “Common Purpose” conspiracy, which is implicated in so many scandals, partly because its “graduates” (members) are often unqualified (except on paper) for their executive positions. For example, the shambolic social work and social worker department in Birmingham itself and, as we now see, the Birmingham local government milieu as a whole.
Birmingham is just one particularly egregious example. There are numerous others. The police throughout the UK provide other examples.
Although it has 80,000 trainees in 36 cities, 18,000 graduate members and enormous power, Common Purpose is largely unknown to the general public.
It recruits and trains “leaders” to be loyal to the directives of Common Purpose and the EU, instead of to their own departments, which they then undermine or subvert, the NHS being an example.
Common Purpose is identifying leaders in all levels of our government to assume power when our nation is replaced by the European Union, in what they call “the post democratic society.” They are learning to rule without regard to democracy, and will bring the EU police state home to every one of us.
Common Purpose is also the glue that enables fraud to be committed across these government departments to reward pro European local politicians. Corrupt deals are enabled that put property or cash into their pockets by embezzling public assets.
It has members in the NHS, BBC, the police, the legal profession, the church, many of Britain’s 7,000 quangos, local councils, the Civil Service, government ministries, Parliament, and it controls many RDA’s (Regional Development Agencies).“
Written, I think, some years ago, but still worth reading.

Accurate, but not entirely. Union Street in Plymouth is not really the city centre, though not far away; more a crumbling depressed bit between the main centre and the docks and ferry port (I once commuted to and from Brittany, Plymouth-Roscoff, about once every 10 days, in the years 2005-2009, so I do know Plymouth a bit; and also used to appear quite often as Counsel at the Plymouth County Court).
Plymouth is rife, in its administration, with both freemasonry and “Common Purpose”. A very badly-run city.
That bald vlogger is the one who used to visit out-of-the-way bits of the former Soviet Union. Not sure why he no longer does that. I think that he was removed from Ukraine but am unsure.
I just saw this:
Apart from Plymouth, “Bald and Bankrupt” goes to Weston-super-Mare, a place which I have also visited a few times quite long ago now (I knew a blonde Ukrainian lady who lived there, she having married an older Englishman who then, really not long afterwards, died of a heart attack, leaving her a quite decent detached house in what passes for the best area of the town). That was circa 2000.
I remember Weston-super-Mare mainly for playing tennis on a warm sunny day with the Ukrainian lady (well, just playing around, really), and deliberately hitting her on the rear with a tennis ball when she bent over to pick up another ball, after which she fired half a dozen at me (I dodged them by running away, weaving).
“Bald and Bankrupt” then goes to Birmingham, a city I do not know, and which I have never even seen, except once or twice from a train, or car circling its endless motorways and other roads, and —once— when on a small plane that stopped at the airport to take on fuel etc.
The state of Birmingham shown in the vlog echoes that discussed in those Matt Goodwin and Sunday Times tweets.
“Come, friendly Russian bombers...” (with apologies to John Betjeman…).
“Bald and Bankrupt” then goes, briefly, to Sunderland, a town I have also never visited (though my late father once played professionally for Sunderland football club, sometime around 1946).
He then goes to a semi-derelict former mining village called Hordern, where he meets a man demolishing a 19thC brick wall, the man having moved to this hopeless desolate place from Guildford (Surrey). Why? Why? Apparently because rental of property is cheaper. Even so…People are very strange…
Overall, dystopian, and not a little frightening.
Of course, much, maybe most, of England, or Britain, is not like those places. Not yet, anyway.

Having lunch with mate and a lovely lady handed me this.
Small acts of kindness and appreciation make such a difference in a world where the accepted narrative is that you are one of the most evil people on the planet.
The lady may be a fan of “Detective Sergeant Hathaway” in Lewis. Politically, Fox may mean well, but has not the ideological or intellectual weight to lead a new party, in my view. Also, pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby etc, so a non–starter as far as I am concerned.
