I was just looking at tweets mentioning me, going back years. Good to see that many of those who attacked me on Twitter for years are now missing, presumed dead. That is, missing from Twitter, with timelines either ended some time ago, or just posting automated follow/unfollow tweets. I know that several are no longer on this Earth.
i could never understand why George Osborne was personally popular among the MPs and in general because to me something about him always seemed to lack a "soul."
— Caroline is pooponbezos.bsky.social (@PoopOnBezos) July 8, 2023
Could it be because many MPs are not too different from Osborne in being soulless? As to the general public, I do not think that Osborne (a part-Jew whose brother and father are both sexually deviant) ever was popular with most British people when he was Chancellor.

Ah, Jeremy Vine, the “Covid” “vaccine” partisan and sometime pro-police-state drone (during the “Covid” craziness), who is also pro-EU, pro-mass immigration, and a fanatical pro-cycling and anti-car troublemaker.
Still, I shall be sorry to see him go from (was BBC, now Channel 5) Eggheads (if reports are accurate). He presents that rather well.
Makes a million a year. Not bad for someone who, after an expensive private education, left Durham University with only a 2:2 in English.
I once had a girlfriend who opined that Durham University was where people study if they are from wealthy families but cannot get into Oxford or Cambridge. That was in relation to a barrister who was a friend of a couple she knew, someone with a very unusual name— something like “Mauleverer”.
In fact, I met said barrister when we attended a dinner party (not my favourite activity) in Blackheath in, I think, 1987 or thereabouts, at which that barrister was also a guest. I was a belated Bar School student at the time (though about 31). The barrister in question must have been 40-something, but in my opinion looked 50+.
The hostess was a charming blonde lady of Polish origins (but I think born in the UK), whose familiar name I forget and was something like Dushka (but not that). Her husband was a friendly chap who seemed amused by that barrister’s seemingly dog-like devotion to the hostess.
If truth be known, the barrister in question struck me as a bit of a nitwit, and I was told that the hostess later said to my girlfriend that I had given more of an impression of being a senior barrister than the said real senior barrister, despite my being ten years younger and a mere Bar student.
Well, perhaps my view was wrong, or at least superficial, because I believe that I read that the barrister in question was then or not long afterwards a silk (QC, now of course KC) and later became a commercial arbitrator and judge (I think in Hong Kong), as well as a trustee of one or two well-known institutions. So maybe he was not a nitwit, at least not entirely. Or maybe our social system rewards people from privileged backgrounds who make the right noises. Take your choice.

Tweeter “Mido” needs to know that, without the almost endless arms, ammunition, money, medical supplies, and other aid (eg food) being channeled to the Kiev regime from the West, the war would stop in a matter of weeks, perhaps even days, and what is left of the Ukrainian state and society would simply cease to function, also in weeks or days. Even state benefits and pensions in Ukraine are now being underwritten by the NWO/ZOG states.
As for troops, the Kiev regime is already pressing into service all sorts of people hitherto exempt. Kiev is running out of cannon-fodder.

For younger or non-Brit people who do not get the above tweet:
I've said this before, and will say it again: the least bad things George Osborne has done are the alleged sex/kink/drug things. What he did in Government was so very, very, very much worse.
“In May 2018, The Daily Telegraph reported that Osborne and his siblings had discovered “with delight” that their maternal grandmother Clarisse Loxton-Peacock (a Hungarian émigrée) was Jewish, and therefore that in Jewish law they are Jewish too.”
[Wikipedia]
Of course, we go by modern biological science, not 3,000-year-old ideas from a backward tribe, so for us Osborne is merely part-Jew.
Still, isn’t it a strange co-incidence? Or series of “co-incidences”: David Cameron-Levita— part-Jew; George Osborne— part-Jew; Theresa May, part-Jewish too; “Boris” Johnson also part-Jew…

Prolific thieves are caught and convicted of stealing up to 50 times before they're jailed. Violent offenders are escaping jail until they've been convicted of up to 25 common assaults.
We need to get serious about crime. This is a joke.
You only have to look at the newspapers to see that that is so. The national ones do not carry the whole story. You see the picture better in the local newspapers (whether print or online). Even quite violent criminals with long and bad records are getting, quite often, suspended sentences, or even such leniency as conditional discharges.
As for thefts, unless the value involved is prodigious, a non-custodial sentence is the norm. Indeed, even where the record is very long and there are aggravating factors, e.g. having committed a “minor” theft (which can still be into the hundreds of pounds) during the currency of a suspended sentence, the time given is usually something like 1 or 2 months, meaning that the convict will be released in, quite likely, a couple of weeks (half of the headline sentence, minus any time spent in custody, but also administrative early release in many cases).
How long is a “long” record? In many cases, not even dozens but even hundreds of convictions, if relatively minor. For example, a shoplifting offence where the value is less than £200 carries a maximum sentence of 6 months in prison, in theory, but a more typical result is a penalty notice and fine of £80 rather than a trial, if the matter is admitted.
In fact, most smallish thefts of that sort never get to court, or even to the police (who now usually only attend stores if there has been a struggle of some sort). It is often left to the store staff to sort out (eg by expelling and banning the perpetrator). That’s when the perpetrator is caught at all.
If you look at local newspapers, you often see that, before a minor offender such as a shoplifter is imprisoned, the defendant will usually have been caught and convicted dozens and perhaps caught (and/or seen) by shop staff hundreds of times, and even then the sentence of imprisonment might be measured in weeks, maybe 10 weeks or similar, meaning out in about a month.
Not that I am a “hanger and flogger”, far from it, but it has become a bit of a joke.
The same is even true of offences involving violence, not uncommonly.
I noticed in the newspapers recently a trial of a gang involved in a series of high-value ATM ram-raids across the South of England. The amount taken was in the hundreds of thousands of pounds, and the damage done to shops and stolen cars (Range-Rovers etc) was even greater. Four or five were convicted at Crown Court. The leader got, I think, over 6 years, but will be released in 3 years; another pair got 3 years (so out in 18 months), and one got a non-custodial sentence.
Of course, say something online about, say, the Jewish lobby, and the police and CPS take much more interest (as the country folds…).
At the same time as the above-discussed cases, Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch) got 2.5 years (so will spend over a year in prison) for being rude about Jews etc on his Internet podcasts! The whole system is now mad. There was another recent case where someone got something like 6 years or more for supposedly having belonged to a banned organization, and also for having a copy (either in print or downloaded from the Internet) of the 1970s manual, The Anarchist’s Cookbook, which is now prohibited in the UK. Just mad.

A lower-cost option would be wooden shelves and a few clean bricks for every shelf. I once, very long ago, had home-made bookshelves like that. Later, I had a library (built in Victorian times), and 2,000 books.

Part-Jew talking head Paul Mason has apparently thrown away his absurd pseudo-socialist or anarcho-syndicalist “beliefs”, and simply become another NWO/ZOG drone. He now champions the finance-capitalist system, the banking system, and even the contrived war in Ukraine. Why he does so is uncertain. I think that maybe he sees himself as a Starmer-Labour MP, and then perhaps, not-far-down-the-line, as Chancellor, and maybe even PM. Why not? I mean, look at the deadheads of the past decade. I would not rule it out.
Look at the tweet below:

I agree, to the extent that this incompetent government has run out of road. Starmer-Labour is “popular” by default, because the misnamed “Conservatives” have given up. As for the electorate— desperate, and so clutching at straws; and if there was ever a “man of straw”, politically, it is Starmer.

Ukrainians are forcibly recruiting people to fill the ranks of their armies. Now the military is trying its best to get out of Ukraine so as not to get to the front. The Russians are apparently killing Ukrainians in 7 to 1 ratio. My son fought there and told me about the artillery. He had skirmishes with the Russians mostly at night, but he said that most of the fights were artillery during the day, and that the Russians now outnumber the NATO forces in artillery 10 to 1 .

So the often-heavily-criticized Jolyon Maugham [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolyon_Maugham], a part-Jew barrister and “activist”, here supporting egregious and self-publicizing Jewish solicitor Mark Lewis, is applauded by one Charlotte Proudman, apparently a mainly academic lawyer and barrister who has attended or researched at no less than five universities in the UK and USA. I do not think that I had heard of her before today.
Ms. Proudman should read my blog posts, written several years ago about Lewis, before expressing an opinion:
So far from having been “grossly unfair“, as Ms. Proudman opines (having apparently read only a brief and one-sided scribble on the Legal Business online platform), the decision of the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority [SRA] regarding Lewis was impeccably fair and, in punishing Lewis very leniently, bent over backwards to be fair. Even his small fine was reduced from £7,500 to £2,500 because his Counsel said on his behalf that Lewis (the ludicrously so-called “top lawyer“, if you believe the tabloid Press) owned no real property, and in fact owned nothing at time of the hearing in 2018 but his clothes, a private pension worth £70 a week, and a mobility scooter.
After the SRA hearing, Lewis took off for Israel, where he now lives.
Looking at what Lewis wrote online to various people, including a Jewish teenager, I was surprised that Lewis was not struck off the roll of solicitors.
I wonder whether Ms. Proudman thinks that the decision of the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal in my case was “grossly unfair“? I doubt it, even though I was both wrongfully, and actually unlawfully, disbarred (at the instigation of a pack of politically-motivated Jews) for having merely tweeted five (5) tweets, all of which were completely true and accurate: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.
Incidentally, this (below) is the profile photograph of herself that Ms. Proudman seems to think appropriate to publish on her Twitter account (which profile describes her as a barrister etc):

Polls of that sort are of course unscientific, and anything on Twitter more so, because of the well-known biases. All the same, it is clear that the present Government has run out of road.

Actions speak louder than words. Something that the “Conservative” Party ministers and Prime Ministers of the past 13+ years seem not to understand. Mass immigration has continued unabated under Sunak and, as Chancellor, he also paused, for one year, the Triple Lock.

“Jack Monroe” is surely a busted flush. Even the utter mugs donating to her on Patreon are waking up: 396 as of today, the first time that the number has dropped below 400 (only a few days ago it was still 414). Last year, there were nearly 900 of those mugs, partly by reason of (now effectively withdrawn) endorsements by TV talking heads and cuisine “experts” Nigella Lawson and Jay Rayner (and others).
Still, 396 mugs each sending “Jack Monroe” between £3.50 and £44 monthly. As said previously, “not a bad little earner“, to use the Essex argot. Must still add up to at least a few thousand in cash. Monthly. For nothing.
If the fall continues, “Jack Monroe”, the “Bootstrap Cook”, may have to either go on the dole or whatever again (she made a whole media career out of having done that once, for a year or so, a decade or more ago). Or perhaps her affluent/wealthy family of buy-to-let parasites, who live in the same area as her, will help her out. I doubt whether she would be employable as anything. I read somewhere that she has only had a couple of jobs (for short periods, and long ago), one arranged via her father, answering the telephones at the Essex fire brigade, the other in a fish and chip shop.

In cheering Thursday news, Jolyon Maugham and his (Not Very) Good Law Project have lost yet another of their flagship cases. #LGBAllianceWinhttps://t.co/ZBhjC8S410
Until today, I was unaware that Maugham no longer practises as a barrister in chambers (he specialized in tax law). Apparently, he left his last chambers in 2020.
I have seen tweets saying that Maugham is a “grifter”, living off donations to the Good Law Project. I have no idea whether that be so, and I also note that the GLP is supported by not only individual donations but also large grants from several well-known trust funds, not least that of the rather odd Rausing people (the descendants of the man who invented Tetrapak in Sweden); they also give or have given money to the mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” crowd.
How much Maugham pays himself (in effect) as Director of the GLP I have no idea (and the website of the GLP is silent on the subject).
Jolyon lives in a construct of fantasy and demands that the rest of us exchange reality for that fantasy so it only makes sense that Jolyon see this loss within the prism of fantasy as well as a win.
I remember seeing Maugham on a “celebrity” episode of University Challenge. He stood out from the rest as combining a very-obviously huge opinion of himself with equally-huge ignorance of almost everything. Very funny.
I have no idea how well (or not) Jolyon Maugham was regarded as a tax barrister, before he launched “Woke Law Project”, but it gives pause for thought how many cases “GLP” has lost or not “won”.
As for Maugham being a KC, these days about 10% of all barristers hold letters patent as KC; it is not the accolade it once was. At one time, only a few barristers a year were made up to KC or QC; now dozens are.
You’d think people would realise how Jolyon works by now instead of continuing to fund the clown. His brings pointless and baseless claims to the courts that never should be there. He’s not doing what’s right by anybody but himself and his wallet.
@greenbelt do you still think Jack Monroe poses no risks? This is due to her doxxing someone, just for requesting a refund from her. Her fans turning up on someone’s doorstep and harassing him.
One of my online harassers turned up at my house late last night and refused to leave, claiming that I refused to answer their "3 reasonable dinner party questions" about myself and they felt the need to ask me in person. That is why the police are now taking it seriously.
I hope to god Jack Monroe bootstrapcook is punished to the maximum degree and shamed publicly for her part in this. She doxxed you, she led the pile ons, she is behind it all when she tried to escape facing justice.
“Jack Monroe” may not have ordered or asked for the above harassment to happen, but she is all the same behind it in the wider sense. She “doxxed” (revealed publicly the address of) the person involved, and she knows very well that her most fervent supporters are often those with mental health problems (as well as the very dim). In other words, she lit the blue touchpaper.

George Osborne is directly responsible for the mess we are in and the mess we've been living in since 2010. He destroyed this country.
So many people assume that because one enemy of the people has “Conservative” on the label, and another “Labour“, that they are not both part of the System together, or are somehow “opposed”. Only superficially.
The government refuses to believe that when you cut the benefit levels the economy crashes. The poor cannot spend what they don’t have. If you increase the benefit levels the economy grows as the poor spend everything you give them. That was why George Osborne’s cuts didn’t work.
Exactly. Give a poor man £1 and he will almost certainly spend it, and have to spend it. Give £1 to a rich man and he will either bank it or buy a hedging asset (eg over-valued real property) with it.

“It fits the definition of madness to propose more austerity. But that, along with higher interest rates, is what’s coming.
Here’s the current state of the nation. The economy is going backwards. National output is lower than it was at the start of the pandemic. Property prices have started to fall. Households have started to increase the amount they save in anticipation of hard times ahead. Living standards are falling because wages are not keeping up with prices. Despite the government’s price cap, average energy bills are double what they were a year ago. Officials are “war-gaming” the possibility of week-long energy blackouts this winter. NHS Englandhas more than 7 million people on its waiting lists. Food bank usage is soaring.
And what’s the response to this? Well, the Bank of England’s monetary policy committee is about to raise interest rates for an eighth meeting in a row, because it is worried that high inflation will set off a wage-price spiral. The City expects a 0.75 percentage-point increase to 3%, and a signal from Threadneedle Street of more to come. The Bank knows what it is doing will cause pain, but says that’s better than even more pain later.
If there was really such a thing as a fiscal black hole, it might be a good idea to fill it, but the idea that Britain is about to sucked into a vortex because it is running a budget deficit is a fairytale.
David Blanchflower, a member of the MPC during the global financial crisis, says the UK looks set to repeat the policy mistakes made back then – and his warning is timely. In September 2008, a month before Royal Bank of Scotland came within hours of running out of cash, the Bank was considering raising interest rates because it feared inflation would become embedded. The real threat, as Blanchflower pointed out at the time, was of a monster recession. Within months, official borrowing costs had been cut from 5% to a then record low of 0.5%.
The Treasury is living proof of the notion that insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting a different result. In 2010, just as the economy was starting to recover from the crash, George Osborne decided that the time was right to start hacking away at the budget deficit. Just as today, tax increases and spending cuts were deemed vital to keep the financial markets sweet.
An early critique of Osbornomics came from Ed Balls in August 2010, when he was pitching to become leader of the Labour party. Yes, Balls said, there needed to be a credible plan to reduce the budget deficit and the national debt, but only when the economy had fully recovered. By doing too much too soon, the coalition government was “undermining the very goals of market stability and deficit reduction which their policies are designed to achieve.”
Balls was making a straightforward Keynesian argument. JM Keynes did not believe in permanent budget deficits, and thought in good times that the state’s income should exceed its spending. But he was adamant that it was self-defeating to tighten policy during a downturn, as happened during the Great Depression. Doing so would make matters worse in every respect: slower growth, higher unemployment and a bigger deficit.
The same applies now, only more so. Things are worse than in 2010 because then, the Bank of England kept borrowing costs at rock-bottom levels while the Treasury imposed its austerity programme. Currently, both the Bank and the Treasury are tightening policy at the same time: a policy stance guaranteed to make the recession deeper and longer.
It is not just that unemployment and poverty will rise. Cuts to capital spending will mean more productivity-sapping delays on the country’s creaking infrastructure. The ill health that explains some of the absence of the over-50s from the labour force calls for more spending on the NHS. There is a case for lower taxes to stimulate investment, targeted at small and medium-sized businesses.
But even though it should be obvious that more austerity will make structural economic problems worse, the UK is firmly in the grip of a technocratic, economic orthodoxy that insists budgets must be balanced, inflation tamed and markets kept sweet. The consensus among the commentariat is that there is no real alternative to what the Bank and the Treasury are doing. Credibility is the priority.
This argument has been deployed before. It was used in 1925, when the consensus agreed there was no alternative to putting the pound back on the gold standard. It was used in 1990, when the consensus was that there was no alternative to joining the exchange rate mechanism. Eventually, the “no gain without pain” approach was seen to lack credibility, and abandoned. But only after immense damage was done.“

I thought it worthwhile to copy/paste quite a lot of that Guardian analysis partly because the simplistic Mrs. Thatcher-style “housewife’s shopping basket” kind of economic discussion is all too widespread, both in the mass media and amid the public— State funds (and overall money in the country) thought of as gold coins in a large chest kept at the Treasury (no doubt monitored by “the King in his counting-house“, in the words of the nursery rhyme).
I have little time for Ed Balls as a politician (and still less for his ghastly wife, Yvette Cooper) but, as a trained economist, he was right a decade or so ago. The part-Jew George Osborne mortally wounded the UK’s economy via the 2010-2015 (really 2010-2020) “austerity” nonsense. The economy is still declining.
It is more than slightly interesting to see msm political commentators noting that, behind the removal of Liz Truss and woolly-head Kwarteng, and behind the Rishi Sunak government, George Osborne has been both active and influential.
Still, politically, and from the standpoint of social-nationalism, the conditions likely to be engendered by these crazy policies may promote an upsurge which might turn into a real national revolution. It’s getting to the point where the UK desperately needs one.
What struck me was that the 11 “stranded asylum-seekers” (migrant-invaders and/or illegal economic migrants) were not only released from actual Home Office/Border Force custody and taken to London, where “volunteers” from some charity spent £450 on clothing for them, but were then picked up by taxi at Home Office expense, driven all the way to Norwich (!) and checked into some hotel! Again, of course, at Home Office (Government/taxpayers’) expense.
I wonder what would happen were I to be (as I very nearly have been a few times in my life) homeless and penniless on the streets of London tomorrow. Would I be fitted-out at once by a charity? Would I then be driven across country in a taxi, before being placed in a Norwich hotel, at State expense? The very idea is ludicrous.
The migration invasion must be stopped and the invaders repatriated, expelled, got rid of…whatever. As to “our” government and the whole present system, it works against our interests and future… and should be toppled.

Of course, the problem is that (perhaps orchestrated on some level behind the scenes), the present “Conservative” chaos may lead in turn to a Labour Party “elected dictatorship” with new dictatorial legislation preventing discussion of anything racial or ethno-cultural, or of Jewish behavioural traits. There may even be “holocaust” “denial” laws, bearing in mind that Keir Starmer is married to a Jewish woman, that their children are being brought up as if fully-Jewish, and that Starmer is a fervent member of Labour Friends of Israel, as are all members of the present Shadow Cabinet.
If that happens, there may be only one way to fight the encroaching tyranny.

🚨 BREAKING: The Bank of England unveils biggest interest rate rise in 30 years
🔴 The increase also takes the Bank’s interest rate back to levels last reached in November 2008, driving up mortgage costs for millions of borrowershttps://t.co/sjWecNaEW7pic.twitter.com/uKVvlg1rie
Lunatics, who applaud the invaders who, with millions of others and the offspring of the same, will turn this country into a black/brown hellhole unless stopped.
🔴 The Home Office has blamed a group of migrants for giving incorrect information after they were dropped off in central London with no accommodation or assistance https://t.co/l8E25jTNUA
“Without accommodation or assistance“? What kind of post-Kafka nightmare is this, where illegal migrant-invaders demand —and usually get, as these did in the end— taxis, hotels, food, and pocket-money, but the British poor are left to struggle for shelter, or for food in unheated homes?
What nightmare is this?

I have always been opposed to capital punishment, perhaps influenced by Dostoyevsky’s famous novel Crime and Punishment, in which the murderer, Raskolnikov, eventually admits his crime, and is sentenced to long years (I think 20 years) of imprisonment with hard labour in Siberia, ultimately emerging as a better man or, as Dostoyevsky either writes or implies, “redeemed“.
A thin small boy, tortured mercilessly by a bullying man and by his own mother.
Even 39 years minimum seems inadequate as punishment for such monstrous and seemingly inhuman (or subhuman) individuals, particularly when served in English prisons, some of which are unpleasant or even horrible but some not so bad; that last particularly applies to the women’s prison(s) where the depraved mother will be held. In brief, they will probably not suffer enough, especially the woman.
It is a big thing for me to say that perhaps, in some cases, the death penalty might be appropriate, after many many years of trying to argue for mercy —life— for persons convicted or murder (not in court— I was never much of a criminal practitioner, and was never on that level of criminal defence, though I nearly got one murder in the early 1990s).
I once argued, at dinner in Lincoln’s Inn, against capital punishment. Seated at table next to me, Lord Justice Parker took the opposite view. He seemed a rather unpleasant man, but he may have been at least partly right.
I wonder whether, in a rare case of the above sort, the death penalty might be appropriate. Not some semi-medicalized type such as the American lethal injection or gas, but something carried out in public, and with some element of movement in it— hanging, beheading by axe, or the guillotine.
Those awaiting such a fate would have to be given a little time to contemplate the awfulness of what would be about to happen to them; and, as said, the execution(s) should be in public.
Not nice thoughts. I think that I shall park such thoughts there and move on to something else. All the same, the murdered boy cries out for justice, and the murderers are not, as yet, punished according to the full measure of their deeds.

Mencap suddenly remember they're supposed to give a shit about disabled children being locked away and separated from their families.
After supporting this as government policy for two years.
The charitable sector has been trashed over the years by several factors: the government subsidies paid to many charities; the tendency for the top few staff to be paid inordinate amounts, in some cases several hundred thousand pounds per year; the infiltration into important positions by “woke” or “politically correct” activists.
When MPs were persecuting their own people – threatening them, firing them, denying medical care – for refusing an injection, it was 'insane' & 'antisemitic' to compare it to 1930s Germany.
But apparently when MPs put foreigners in 4 star hotels, it's EXACTLY like the Holocaust.
Watching Lord Stuart Rose saying on Question Time that interest rates must go up to crush demand. This is ridiculous. We are in recession. We have a shortage of demand. This man chairs Asda. How can he be so wrong?
Presumably, Rose (like the Bank of England) wants to choke off demand in order to suppress inflation. The danger, of course, is that, after the harsh medicine, you control inflation, yes, have sound money, yes, a “sound pound” if you like, but also have a pretty dead economy, high unemployment, and continuing recession. You might even get the recession as well as high inflation (“stagflation”).

Interesting to see how the System scribblers are all desperately pushing Rishi Sunak, the “great brain” who closed down the UK economy for two years, sprayed money around like a drunken sailor at the same time, yet is suddenly “a safe pair of hands“, apparently.
There is something more behind this, a whiff of secret cabals and international money.
God forbid that Britain should have a British and/or indeed English prime minister. Look at not only the non-white presenter, but the attitude of the LBC organization.
System lies.
Of course Sunak is not really British; neither is “Boris”, with his part-Jew roots, including an ancestor who was a rabbi in Lithuania.
What does it matter that Sunak went to Winchester, or any other school? Hordes of foreign persons (whether born here or not) attend Eton etc.
As to that presenter:
“Myska was born in Tanzania,[6] and has Indian and African heritage.[7] She graduated from the University of Birmingham with an LLB in Law and Politics.[1]
In September 2009, it was revealed that she was mugged the previous year by Daniel Mykoo and his brother Matthew, dubbed the London ‘strangler-robbers.‘[8][9]“
Listen to the Indian woman (who quite obviously hates England and English people, in my opinion, listening to her tone of voice as she mentions them) pretend to be holding a “conversation” while shouting down the caller for, inter alia, using the word “globalist” (because her “Jewish friends” —as she herself puts it— do not like the word).
It shows what we, the real British people, are up against.
As a matter of fact, look at the replies to that tweet, as the inevitable Twit-mob attacks the caller. Idiots who want Britain to be non-white, or do not care whether it is or not, and probably have no idea of the consequences down the line.
Thank God that Twitter is very unrepresentative, especially now that the more interesting people (including me, if I be a little immodest) have mostly been expelled. A pack of Jews had me expelled from Twitter in 2018.

Nothing startling, but it seems that quite a few people need a reminder of where this shambles started.
Back in 2010 or 2011, certainly by 2012, the UK could borrow money at zero or near-zero interest rates. As some economists (including, to be fair, the then-MP, Ed Balls, someone I rarely commend) said at the time, that was the time to borrow massively for infrastructure purposes (rail, road, education, robotics etc) as well as for modest stimulation of the real economy.
Instead, the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne led a kind of witch-hunt, blaming (of all people) the disabled, unemployed and generally poor for the 2007-2008 banking debacle, and slashing UK government spending. Iain Dunce Duncan Smith was, arguably, the Witchfinder-General.
Libraries, courts, museums, community projects were all closed in huge numbers. The income (in real terms) of the bulk of the British people was slashed.
The result was a partial collapse of the UK economy and, at the end of it all, the Government had borrowed even more money than had “austerity” never happened.
The money was borrowed all right, but not spent on what it should have been.
That is what happens when you put the half-educated and half-baked in charge of things.
Liz Truss may have been the worst example, together with woolly-head Kwarteng, but her smoothed road to office was paved by the twelve years of idiots and self-publicizers that preceded her.

Not only did Penny not agree to fold…
Understand she also argued that only she could beat Sunak… ie that Boris should drop out.
Framed herself as the only person who could stop a Sunak coronation.
Looks like Penny Mordaunt is as silly and delusional as Liz Truss. Last time I looked, she had fewer than 30 MPs declared for her candidature. She has no prospect of beating Sunak among MPs voting, though she might then snatch his victory away if the matter were to go to the rank-and-file membership, but to do that she has to get 100 backers, which seems very unlikely.
If she had agreed to withdraw, and if then “Boris” Johnson had managed somehow to get to the 100-level, no doubt she would have been appointed to Cabinet later, assuming a “Boris” victory among the Con Party grassroots. Now, Sunak will probably sail home against a divided anti-Sunak front. Still, he may chuck her a portfolio as a consolation prize (and to keep her “in the tent”).
I was wondering, a few days ago, about what the plan might be to take the votes of the very many elderly Conservative Party members who are not online. Well, it turns out that, typically for the party that has catastrophically mismanaged this country for 12 years, there…is no plan.
At least, the “plan” was for Con Party officials to telephone the 20,000 members without email this weekend, either to register their emails or to urge the people to supply email addresses.
I would guess that at least 10,000 are not online anyway. 10,000 votes could easily be the difference between the two candidates; 20,000 would certainly be. I further think that most of those without email addresses will be “Boris” Johnson supporters.
Anyway, let us say that the Conservative officials can reach the 20,000 (which I doubt). How many officials? 10? 2,000 telephone calls each! 100? That would still be 200 calls apiece.
This is rubbish. The Con Party cannot even run its own simple election properly.
I wonder whether, on the above premises, the losing candidate might raise a legal challenge after the result is announced?

The long and short of it is that Sunak can never win an Election and making him leader would condemn the Tories to opposition. Yet the lemming MPs vote for him. Crazy.

It will all go pear shaped within weeks. The party is completely divided, the leader hasn’t been chosen by the members, (the exact opposite) and is hated. Members are leaving the party in droves. He doesn’t stand a chance and doesn’t deserve it either. Vile backstabber
Sunak is probably going to slash public services spending, State benefits, State Pension etc. He is probably not going to call for, or request, a general election soon. That means that he will rule as a hated, effectively unelected, unmandated “regent”.
As soon as the voters are given a chance, they will bury Sunak and, with him, the Conservative Party.
In recent years, the Conservative Party has scored around 40% in the seat (about 38% in 2019), so if that goes down to 30% or 20%, we shall get an idea of the popularity of the Con Party.

One wonders why, in this age of superficial iconoclasm, these antiquated figures (bishops) and organizations (churches) still command at least pro forma respect in the msm. I suppose because they always endorse every mad or evil trend the conspiracy wants, from “Black Lives Matter” and climate change via CO2 emissions, to “anti-racism” and all the other nonsense around, including the “holocaust” farrago and the “Covid” panicdemic propaganda and, of course, the “right” of women to become “priestesses” and crazed woman bishops.
A few thoughts about the hot weather
I have lived and worked in, as well as merely visited, various countries, both those which are usually hot and those which are hot only in summer: USA, Australia (where I was at school for three years), a few parts of Africa and North Africa, Turkey, the Caribbean, Kazakhstan, Russia, and of course European countries.
It is hard to come to a firm conclusion about climate from personal experience alone. That is especially true when other factors than temperature come into play: humidity, air flow, the difference (if any) between temperature in the day and after dark.
Age is certainly a factor. Children are often more accepting of hot weather, though many old people enjoy at least sunshine, if not fierce blazing heat.
For myself, I find that age makes hot weather less tolerable, especially when combined with high humidity.
Is the British weather less tolerable now, as compared to, say 1976 or other noted years? As a matter of fact, I would say that it is, possibly because the very hot weather at least seems to continue longer, indeed almost endlessly. In 1976, I was 19, so more resilient to heat than I now am, but I lived in London throughout that famous summer, and did not find it too difficult, despite its duration (longer than the present heatwaves).
I have not examined in detail the statistics of temperature etc, but we do seem to be having more hot and very hot days, days when the temperature is above not even 20C, but 25C and even 30C.
As to “climate change”, my own view is that there has been a change: Australia today, meaning Sydney and other Eastern seaboard regions with which I and my wider family are familiar, is far hotter more often than was the case in the late 1960s when I was a child there. What is driving the change is (in my view) uncertain. If it is said that CO2 emissions are the cause, then the UK or even all Europe making changes will be of only limited effect anyway. China and India are the big emitters as well as the big polluters, and they are not going to change what they do any time soon.
For me personally, I just look forward to next week, when the forecasters predict cooler weather, with rain, in southern England.
I was not going to look at the clip of the African’s cruelty, but happened to see it on Twitter. Upsetting. It angered me. People should know what a subhuman bastard it, the untermensch, is:

The British people are being conditioned to accept lower standards in all areas: NHS, the police, the legal professions, housing provision, MPs (most are real deadheads now), roads, universities, pension age, pay, State benefits etc.
Mass immigration is part of the reason: you cannot import millions of people from lower-quality ethno-cultural groups, and then expect standards to stay the same, or to rise. Such expectation would be lunatic.
On the broader canvas, the secret cabals and ruling circles of the West (commonly called NWO and ZOG), want to build up North America and the Far East, mainly.
Europe, with a European population, gets in the way of that, so the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan provides for importation of tens of millions of blacks, browns, and others, in order to create a mixed-race population that can be easily ruled by (mainly) Jews and, especially publicly, mixed Jewish/English individuals. The prime ministers and other top ministers of recent years prove the point: David Cameron-Levita, George Osborne, Theresa May, “Boris” Johnson, and so on.

I happened to see a shot of the headline of something written by Jew-Zionist and extreme conservative, Melanie Phillips:
Not often that I would be on the same page as her, though it has happened once or twice before.
I have always disliked tattoos, especially but not only on women. In the past, tattoos, at least in the Europe of the past couple of thousand years, were for men only, and usually for men in particular “walks of life”: some sailors, some soldiers, some criminals.
Even in the armed services, not only in the UK but in most countries, while tattoos might be acceptable in the ranks, they were, traditionally, not acceptable in the officer caste.
It is well-known that Jews are not generally tattooed; that seems to come from one of the strictures laid down in the Book of Leviticus. Some Jews were tattooed involuntarily when detained by the forces of the Reich; they were tattooed on the lower arm with their prisoner number: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identification_of_inmates_in_German_concentration_camps.
Waffen-SS men and officers often had their blood group tattooed under the left arm, for practical reasons. Not all SS personnel, though, had such a tattoo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_blood_group_tattoo.
I have not read the Melanie Phillips article (behind a paywall), but I am sure that the tattoos to which she objects are the purely decorative ones.
I too have puzzled over why they seem to be so popular now. It does seem to betoken a retreat from culture and civilization, but that is my feeling, not backed by cold logic.
I am not sure that my reaction on seeing tattoos is as visceral as that of Melanie Phillips, but it is broadly similar— I don’t like them.
Can no-one in Canada get rid of Trudeau? Still, he is only the monkey, or one of them, not the organ-grinder. The secret cabals and ruling circles are at the heart of the problem.
I thought at the time that the old ex-officer and one-time director of a concrete company was a well-meaning (but probably naive) fellow, and I did wonder whether the monies he raised would actually get through to do much good, but I preferred not to blog about it mainly because it seemed churlish to raise doubts based mainly on instinct or feeling (without hard evidence). I could see also that “Captain Tom” was to some extent being used by the same forces behind the “panicdemic” and the “weekly clap”.
It did not occur to me that quite a bit of the money would be, in effect, just stolen or embezzled. I thought that the public scrutiny would prevent anything as direct as that from happening. Apparently not.
You could compare the 2020-2021 “panicdemic” or “scamdemic” to the post-2008 “austerity” nonsense imposed by part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne (with, once again, a general lack of opposition from “Labour”): a cynical propaganda campaign by the System, allied in that instance to a modern version of the late-Roman cruelty whereby the deluded citizens watched, in this case from 2008-2019, the poorer citizens being, if you like, thrown to the lions.
The international Jew-Zionist lobby is trying to help the half-Jewess (and Israeli agent) Ghislaine Maxwell. It must be awkward for the screeching Jewish trolls on UK and US Twitter…just as the Janner paedophilia case was awkward for the former.

Once again, tweeter “@EternalEnglish” hits the target. The “democratic” pantomime is a Schauspiel for the credulous. “Boris” is now exposed for the useless barrel of lies that many, including me, have said for years that he is. We now see the start of the planned movement to replace him, either by Sunak or, should fake “Labour” somehow manage to recover electorally, by Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer and his Shadow Cabinet composed of Labour Friends of Israel members.
Incidentally, I heard Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper on the radio a few days ago, and her horrible, hectoring, and primly/smugly certain, voice brought back the days of Blair and Brown, including Yvette Cooper’s expenses cheating (she was, with her husband, Ed Balls, and in simple terms, a fraudster), and her support for both mass immigration and repression of free speech. A truly horrible woman.
Quite. Read , eg, To Build a Castle, by the recently-deceased dissident, Bukovsky:
“The man whom the New York Times called “a hero of almost legendary proportions among the Soviet dissident movement”, Vladimir Bukovsky was expelled from Moscow University at 19 years of age, and by the time he was 35 had spent a total of twelve years in Soviet prisons, labor camps and psychiatric hospitals.
Mounting pressure in the West led to his release in 1976, when he was famously traded for the Chilean Communist leader Luis Corvalan. He then accepted an invitation to continue his interrupted biology studies at Cambridge University. His fame as a major irritant to the Soviet government was sealed with the publication of his powerful bestselling prison memoir To Build a Castle.
A masterful writer, whom Nabokov called “that courageous and precious man”, Bukovsky continued to write about life under totalitarianism. “The great truth was that it was not rifles, not tanks, and not atom bombs that created power,” he wrote. “Power depended upon public obedience, upon a will to submit.” He himself never offered that obedience or submission to totalitarian authority.
Bukovsky has used his acclaim to warn world leaders of continuing deceit and manipulation by Soviet leaders and their successors, up to and including President Putin. He recently said: “Having failed to finish off conclusively the communist system, we are now in danger of integrating the resulting monster into our world. It may not be called communism anymore, but it has retained many of its dangerous characteristics.” [Amazon UK]
Incidentally, don’t assume that the latter-day Soviet Union (1960s, 1970s, 1980s) was always “iron fist in iron glove”. Sometimes, as often in 2021 Britain, the glove was velvet.
I was told, in the early 1980s, of a person who, in the Moscow of the late 1970s, was a sort-of dissident, though not one that wrote anything; he also did not really want to get a regular (or any) job.
That person was investigated by the local militia (police) on a potential charge of “social parasitism”, which could land someone with up to 5 years serf-labour (in effect) in regions such as Siberia, or beyond the Arctic Circle. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitism_(social_offense).
Eventually, the local militia chief summoned the young man to a meeting. The young (20-something) self-styled dissident was given a way out: to take a very poorly-paid job (I think as a night-watchman), part-time (I believe three nights per week). He could then loaf, or take part in harmless “dissident” discussions etc, for the other 4 days of the week. That way, also, the militia could be seen to have done its job, and the KGB (Fifth Chief Directorate and/or Second Chief Directorate) need not get involved.
Is that not what happens in the UK now? Politically active persons can tweet or blog (unless “deplatformed”), or even meet in person, up to a point. If some whining, or loudly complaining, Jew-Zionist body such as the “Campaign Against Anti-Semitism” [“CAA”] or “Community Security Trust” [“CST”] makes malicious complaint to the police, the police mess around slightly with the “dissident”, insist on a pointless interview under caution etc, with the aim of firing a shot across the bows.
Those who dissent more, or more actively, may find themselves being prosecuted, or perhaps even harassed by the “Anti-Terrorist Command”, but such cases are only the tip of the iceberg; many others are quietly and even politely repressed, just enough to “control” the dissident…
That useless barrel of lies was put where he is by System operatives far higher than he is; and he will be binned and replaced when the same secret cabals, or ruling circles, make that decision.
So the government are ramping up restrictions to protect the NHS despite the fact that only 5% of NHS beds are occupied by Covid patients and despite the fact that 5,000 NHS beds have been cut during the pandemic. Protect the NHS? What about protecting us?
(shouldn't be something that is debated any/either way) There is NO opposition to this by Labour, Lib Dems or any other Major political party, which PROVES they are all in it together. This bird has plenty of wings.#WeWillNotComply#EnoughIsEnough
If enough say no, they cannot enforce their mandates. They cannot drag 1000s of folk off trains, shut down 1000s of businesses, chase up 1000s of unpaid fines. If enough people say NO, you can stop Boris in his tracks#WeWillNotComply#EnoughIsEnough#NoVaccinePassportsAnywhere
The LibDems have been washed-up since they “enabled” the misnamed “Conservative” Party, under part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne, to impose wrongheaded austerity on the poorer two-thirds of the British people.
As for Reform UK, a pathetic “controlled opposition” vehicle, but a straw which may be clutched at by many in the absence of a real social-national party; the lineal successor to Brexit Party and UKIP.
Green Party upswing is another “grasp at straws” sign of voter desperation or frustration.
Well, this week brings another victory for me over political journalist John Rentoul; I scored 7/10 as against his 4/10. I did not know the answers to questions 5, 6 and 7.
System politicians and msm talking heads (and the medical establishment) are still pushing the “it’s an existential threat to humanity” narrative, and that is all you will hear and see on the BBC, Sky, ITN etc. They have painted themselves into a corner with their panic, lies, and obfuscations.

Telling…The people do not want either main System party “leader” as Prime Minister. The people really want social-nationalism, but they themselves do not even know it, because the repression on free speech, and the lies of the ZOG/NWO msm, have them completely confused.
On that modelling, Labour would need support from both the SNP and the LibDems to form even a working minority government; the Conservative Party would in theory be able to govern with SNP support. However, the price of that would be, at the least, another Scottish Independence referendum.
Writing as advocatus diabolus, I suppose that the Conservative Party could buy the SNP by offering actual Independence without a referendum, but that might cause a political explosion north of the border, where about half of the Scottish voters are opposed to, or at least not in favour of, “independence” (independence from the UK/England, but not necesssarily from the international finance system, NWO/ZOG, NATO etc…).
Still, continuing in the cynical vein, and as I have blogged before, if Scotland were “independent” (from the UK), that would pretty much kill off Labour as a party of (“rump UK” or England/Wales) government. Once you take out the 48 SNP MPs and the one Labour MP from the Commons, as well as the 4 LibDems and 6 Conservatives, it becomes clear that Labour would never be able to form even a minority government, unless there were some kind of “peaceful revolution” in England. On the above modelling, Con 289, Lab 264, LibDem 7. (plus other parties).
Saw an old (not sure how old) “celebrity” version of The Chase quiz show. Featured Jewish-Zionist zealot Rachel Riley, who seemed to be pretty ignorant, though not much worse than the others. She even got a very simple maths question wrong (actually not wrong, because she failed to answer). Ghastly former MP, Edwina Currie, was the only one to be knocked out before the end. Surprisingly, though, the remaining three won £66,000 for charity, so that was nice, anyway.
Those who watch TV quiz shows will know that the “celebrity” shows are invariably cringeworthy, and lead one to speculate why hugely well-paid celebrity faces are often so hugely ignorant. I have seen few such “celebrities” acquit themselves well. One of the few who did was studiedly foppish interior designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurence_Llewelyn-Bowen]. I think that that was also on The Chase.
Keir Starmer
Heard part of an interview with Keir Starmer, conducted by Nick Robinson. Starmer’s first point, even before it was explored further by Robinson, was how he had done everything he could to stop “anti-Semitism” in Labour (I think that his pleasant phrase was “tear out“…).
Seems that Starmer’s only real interest is in bringing aid and comfort to the Jews, despite the fact that they are numerically few (250,000-300,000), and so relatively insignificant in electoral terms.
Starmer admitted that, at home, his family does celebrate Jewish customary holidays. Sadly, Nick Robinson was too polite to ask whether Starmer, on such occasions, wears the little skullcap (“yarmulka“) which I believe (rightly or not) is de rigueur.
On radio (the interview was also shown on TV), Robinson’s intro mentioned the problem Starmer has with seeming credible to the public were he to appear, as Prime Minister, on the step of 10, Downing Street. I am scarcely favourable to Starmer but, surely, after Boris-idiot, almost anyone would be credible, or at least not seem worse?
Late tweets
Last night's Templar Report. We discuss the ever-growing weight of evidence of the dangers of those jabs, growing protests, the issue of #NurembergRules and the reality of power. Plus the madness of the climate cult and other goodies. Thanks for sharing!https://t.co/79SWEDIH4a
This is now descending into total madness (again). A “variant” of a virus that kills about 1 in every 1,000 in the UK (and 1 out of 4,000 in the world), and this stupid yet evil Cabinet of clowns is apparently going to mandate the facemask nonsense again! We are pretty much at war now, not with “Covid” but with this evil Con regime, its equally evil fake “Labour” supposed opposition, and with a transnational conspiracy with several (to use Biblical language) heads and/or horns.
So the police shut down mild heckling of “antifa”-type “useful idiots”? Reminds me of the Trafalgar Square disgrace which continued for years in the 1980s, with amplified yelling 24/7 outside the South African Embassy, while the police, on political orders, allowed it and in fact facilitated it.
System conspiracy.

“The charity that employs Carrie Johnson paid more than £150,000 to its chairman’s wife for interior design services last year.
The figure paid by the Aspinall Foundation equates to ten per cent of all donations received from public and corporate donors in 2020.
The organisation and its sister charity the Howletts Wild Animal Trust are already being investigated by the Charity Commission over their spending and financial management.”
The Daily Mail report triggers thoughts about several different areas: the present rotten government, headed by part-Jew, part-Levantine chancer, “Boris” Johnson and his Cabinet of clowns; the whole area of charities and “good causes”; and a few personal reminiscences.
Aspinall’s mother was later married to Sir George Osborne [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_George_Francis_Osborne,_16th_Baronet], one of their 3 children being Sir Peter Osborne, who married a Hungarian-Jewish woman, that couple then having 4 children, one of whom is Gideon “George” Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer under David Cameron-Levita.
In other words, George Osborne is related to the present head of the Aspinall Foundation, Damian Aspinall (son of John Aspinall).
Around 1995, when I still lived in Little Venice, West London, I was acquainted with a lady of middle age called…well, let’s just call her by my nickname for her, “Mouse” (probably now-deceased). That lady had known John Aspinall’s brother or rather (I think) half-brother, rather well, and had stayed at the country house in Kent which also houses the zoo:
Over drinks at “the Bunker”, our name for the cellar bar at the Colonnade Hotel in Little Venice, I was told Mouse’s assessment of John Aspinall: ruthless, someone who much preferred animals to people, and who regarded the death of keepers at the zoo (five of whom were killed by the animals) as not very important; collateral damage, if you like.
[Colonnade Hotel, London W.9. “The Bunker” was under the garden area shown]
Apparently, in his early days as an illegal or near-legal gaming operator, in the 1950s, Aspinall had more than once had to ask his wife for her jewellery, to cover outstanding gaming debts.
By 1960, though, Aspinall’s activities had brought fortune, if not always a good name.
The present Aspinall, Damian Aspinall, son of John, is extremely wealthy, and his wealth is said to have come from real estate operations unconnected, originally, with gambling as such: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damian_Aspinall.
Whatever may be said about the way in which the Aspinall Foundation is said to be run, the work it has done with wild animals is said to have been very good, and in some respects pioneering.
Judging from what I have both read and been told, it seems that both Aspinall father and Aspinall son could say, “I did it my way“…
What about charities generally? There has been much criticism over the years of the loose oversight exercised by the Charity Commission.
Charity was originally a matter for the individual or the (Roman Catholic) Church. Taxation scarcely came into the matter. Once England started to become a more secular society, in Tudor times, legislation had to regulate what was or was not a “charitable” activity. The Statute of Elizabeth [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charitable_Uses_Act_1601] set down a list of “charitable” activities.
The Statute of Elizabeth was repealed in the 19thC, but the list of what is considered charitable still largely stands, clarified (or not) by case law precedent.
That is why, for example, the National Lottery of the UK has a fund not for “charity” but for “good causes”, a far wider ambit.
Many of the public concerns around charities have been caused by the way in which the larger charities soliciting money from the public pay their top-level employees. For many, it was shocking to learn that the husband of assassinated MP, Jo Cox, one Brendan Cox, was not only a sex pest and rapist or near-rapist [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5404241/Jo-Coxs-husband-admits-sex-pest-resigns.html] but was being paid something like £200,000 by the charity Save the Children, which churns out tearjerk TV ads and so on, which ads solicit donations and bequests from kind-hearted members of the public.
There seems to be no good reason why such high salaries are paid. Brendan Cox, for example, had a rather modest academic and work background: see https://uk.linkedin.com/in/brendan-cox-433b364.
I was myself shocked to learn, many years ago, that the (effectively) fraudulent MP and expenses cheat, Derek Conway [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek_Conway], after he was first removed from Parliament in 1997, had not only been appointed as Chief Executive of the Cats’ Protection League [now Cats’ Protection], but also been paid, if memory serves, something like £150,000 a year, a not inconsiderable sum in the 1990s. I favour that charity, which like many others has collecting tins here and there, but some of these executives, in the British Army phrase, really “tear the arse out of” their appointments.
This is very negative to the image of all charities, and leads to public distrust, thus hampering the valuable work that so many charities do.
No-one expects executives of large charitable organizations to work for nothing, or for peanuts, but there is a case, as elsewhere in our society, for decent measure.
It may be time to look again at what should constitute a charity, and to regulate the big charities, especially, more closely.
Surprised this morning when watching a few minutes of BBC TV News (something I rarely bother with these days), and to hear the BBC reporter say that the (presumed) terrorist bomber in Liverpool had “sadly” died. What?!
No need, I think, for me to expand on my point.
Covid nonsense
While watching some news on TV briefly, also saw and heard that absurd van Tam person talking (seemingly endlessly) about “Covid” statistics. Something about how one group of people in one area had extremely high rates of hospitalization, “7.1% per 100,000 people“!
[7.1 or 7.1%?]
So, in a town such as Reading, of over 200,000 inhabitants, about 15 people might be hospitalized over the period mentioned (and almost all recover after a few days or a week or so).
[So either 15 people or 15,000 people! The latter would surely be absurd, nicht wahr?].
This is a public health problem that is nowhere near existential. Scrap all “measures”, fake laws, “rules” and all but mild advice.
The bigger the lies the bigger the desperation and in the last few days we've had some whoppers.
In a week that saw doctors caught lying on numerous occasions we also saw 60,000 NHS workers given until April 2022 to get jabbed or get to the job centre. pic.twitter.com/EVGkB4fQPr
By the way if you are one of the people who willfully misinterprets critics of vaccine mandates or Covid passes as “antivaxxers” – ie traitors to a broader cause – you’re doing what every passive enabler of totalitarianism has done before you and it won’t end well.
This will only end when people, in numbers, not only start to say “NO!” but also start to punish the “authorities”, i.e. the System, and the “facilitators” of tyranny.
If even 10,000 Austrians were to go to the centre of Vienna, each armed with a mallet or hammer, and then were to break as many shop windows, and windows of government and police offices, as possible before being captured, that would make history. 10,000 freedom fighters, each breaking (say) 20 windows. 200,000 windows! Wien— Freiheit! Wien— das ist’s!!
Not that Austrians breaking windows will be sufficient, but it would be a start…

The change of blue of the flags adorning the Elysée Palace was first made a year ago but went largely unnoticed.
Previously, the shade was lighter to match the blue of the EU flag as decided by President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing in 1976.
