Diary Blog, 17 May 2023, with discussion about economic sanctions on Russia and on 1970s Rhodesia

We must never forget “the men behind the wire”.

This looks hopeful, on the face of it. Kennedy is all for taking away the ricebowl of the Kiev regime. At the same time, Biden is very clearly mentally unfit to continue in his office.

Economic sanctions

Economic sanctions either do not work at all or have unexpected consequences. When I visited Rhodesia in 1977, aged 20, I half-expected to see a country weighed down by sanctions imposed by the UN. What I found was a country where those who owned cars mostly drove quite new ones. The UK complied with the sanctions regime, but France, Germany, Japan etc did not, judging by the cars seen on the road. Outside the capital, Salisbury (now Harare), though, there were often empty roads— one sanction that did have an effect was that on fuel, which was rationed.

I noticed that books were hard to get. The main bookshop (I was told it was the main one) in Salisbury had few if any serious books (and none of my then-favourite Penguin Classics), but plenty of books from South Africa, most seemingly (my perception, anyway) about how to take care of your horse/dog/cat/tropical fish. You could buy Wilbur Smith adventures, another South African import [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilbur_Smith]. Also, no American or British news and current events magazines, no Time, Newsweek, Spectator etc. Rather poor South African magazines such as Scope were available. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scope_(magazine).

The dearth of serious reading material was probably the result of both sanctions and the disinclination of most Rhodesians to spend time on intellectual pursuits even of a superficial nature.

As to other effects of the sanctions regime against Rhodesia, imported booze (from Europe or North America) was almost unobtainable, but that did not affect me personally during my time there, because my main drink, apart from water and orange juice, was beer, and the local product was of high quality (Lion Lager or Simba, pronounced “Shumba“, or South African Castle Pilsner, my favourite).

The Rhodesians tried to get around sanctions by diversifying, producing admittedly inferior substitutes for previously imported products. Everything from chocolate to whisky, and even some firearms. I remember seeing ads in the local press for a highly inaccurate submachinegun called the Rho-gun. I seem to recall that the price was about $290 (Rhodesian dollars, not exchangeable outside the country officially, though I did manage to sell quite a few —at a poor exchange rate— to a businessman in Gaborone, Botswana, after I left Rhodesia).

See: https://guns.fandom.com/wiki/BHS_Rhogun and https://military-history.fandom.com/wiki/Rhogun. For sale to (white) Rhodesians with the appropriate permit. The Rhodesian military had far better arms, mostly either from South Africa or from elsewhere (and pre-dating UDI Independence from the UK). [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodesia%27s_Unilateral_Declaration_of_Independence]. See also: https://www.nytimes.com/1977/01/03/archives/travelers-get-armed-guard-on-a-road-vital-to-rhodesia.html.

I noticed that “white goods” such as refrigerators, icemaking machines etc were very expensive, whereas locally-produced food such as oranges, nuts, and biltong (meat, often beef or antelope, dried in the sun) etc was not too expensive.

As for exports (supposedly impossible under the UN sanctions regime), the Rhodesians were able to export minerals and some fruit etc. Years later, I discovered that the Soviet Union, one of the states pressing for harder sanctions against Rhodesia (and South Africa) had in fact been secretly buying Rhodesian exports (at a substantial discount). Chromium and other minerals, and Mazoe oranges (sold in the Soviet Union as “Chinese”, apparently). All shipped out of Mozambique.

Tobacco was another prime export, sold on world markets by a sanctions-busting operation based, I think, in Rotterdam.

The idea that Russia will be “brought to its knees” by economic sanctions is a pipe-dream. In fact, such sanctions help Russia in a “be cruel to be kind” way. They force Russia to diversify, and to improve agriculture and horticulture. The sanctions have also forced Russia to create new trading links, and to strengthen existing ones.

“Human rights abuses”

The next time some bought-and-paid-for “British” or American politician-for-hire, or some Jew neo-con publicist, or fake “centrist”, talks about “human rights abuses” by Russia or others, remember the behaviour of the USA itself. Here are a few examples:

More?

In tropical heat and/or blazing sunshine as well…

The above two images show the American concentration camp at Guantanamo Bay, on the island of Cuba.

…the fact is that the German camp guards of WW2, and even the brutal Soviet guards in their labour camps, behaved better than the Americans have in recent decades.

Behind the executives, and the paid-for public faces, the New World Order (NWO), and much of that is tied in with World Zionism, and Israel.

More tweets seen

Unless a true movement can emerge in the UK and mainland Europe pretty rapidly, that must be correct.

Exactly.

In 2016, one of the five tweets that got me disbarred, at the instigation of two connected packs of Jews, was that describing Sarkozy —accurately, except that he is not a full Jew, only part— as “a corrupt little Jew“. Well, scroll on 6-7 years and here we are…

Incidentally, my disbarment was both wrongful and actually unlawful: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

Another of the five supposedly “grossly offensive” tweets posted by me, as a result of which I was unlawfully disbarred, was that describing snivelling cocaine user and drunk, Gove, as corrupt, as a fraudster and as a freeloader, and also as being in the pocket of the Israel/Jewish lobby.

Well, any argument on that now?

Look at the above news report. Speculators and parasites are favoured by Gove’s latest policy U-turn. Not all are Jews (and not all Jews are speculators and/or parasites) but, at the same time…

So, of the five “offensive” tweets, turns out that, in fact, two were undoubtedly —and now provably— simple true statements of fact, as were also (in reality) the other three tweets in question.

Corbyn was not even decently “antisemitic”, despite the constant (((whine))) about him. In general, a complete idiot.

700,000 immigrants last year. That’s “net”, meaning maybe a million entered but 300,000 (mainly real British people going to Australia, NZ, Canada etc) left.

Britain as a dustbin.

As, I think, Lord Green of Deddington said in the Lords recently, that amount of immigration means that, just to stand still, Britain requires 300 new dwellings every single day!

Horrible little blots such as Tom Harwood are now showing tiny bits of the Green Belt as scruffy here and there. The exceptions that prove the rule— the Green Belt must be saved and, yes, improved.

Starmer can now, I hope, kiss goodbye to his desired Commons majority in 2024. Much as I want rid of the “Conservatives”, Starmer-Labour is now showing its hand…and it is looking even worse.

More tweets

It has nothing much to do with “dream of home ownership“. In any case, who wants to own a concrete or brick box in a hellhole landscape, and in which “neighbourhood” your “neighbours” may well be persons of backward culture not long off the boat (literally)?

Is that an honest poll? I wonder. Of course, the public has had 1-2 years of brainwashing or conditioning.

I wonder whether the results might have been different had the question made the point that if Ukraine joins NATO and has a war with Russia, it will be mandatory for all NATO states to join in. That is to say, it would be mandatory to join in a war against Russia which would almost certainly either be or become nuclear.

I suppose that, even were the question to elucidate the situation to the people asked, a few lunatics would still want to fight Russia, but most might think that the utter destruction of their homes and whole way of life would be a high price to pay for supporting “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime)…

Starmer still no more popular than Sunak, give or take a couple of points. Both stupid wasters unpopular with 60%-69% of the voters.

I daresay that, in a month’s time, once people realize that Starmer wants to continue to import millions of unwanted migrant-invaders, and destroy what is left of the still-beautiful English countryside so that millions of hutches can be built to house them, the popularity of Starmer —and so, Labour— will fall further yet.

The whole two-party system (with LibDem/dustbin add-on) is very ingrained. It is, in itself, a potent form of conditioning or brainwashing.

Thoughts

Thinking about that visit to Rhodesia in 1977: many people imagine that a collapsing society looks like Germany in 1945 (or 1923). Not so. I was in Poland (several times) in 1988 and 1989; also, in the DDR/East Germany, and Czechoslovakia.

The whole socialist system fell apart in late 1989. Yet the police still patrolled, the borders were maintained and guarded (until the Berlin Wall fell), utilities still worked, and there were few political demonstrations, let alone riots or the like. Letters continued to be delivered. Shops remained open, even if they had little to sell in some cases. The seismic changes were about to happen, but there were only slight external signs of that.

One got a sense of considerable discontent, talking to people in Poland and Czechoslovakia (on those visits and elsewhere as well), but the surface normality prevailed. The police still functioned, even in Poland (I myself picked up two tickets for, in the American phrase, “jaywalking”, i.e. crossing the road at the wrong place). Fined on the spot…twice. A recidivist.

Turning from those situations to the UK, there often seems to be little public appetite for swift political change. Frustrating for many of us.

We have seen, over 20 years, almost uncontrolled mass immigration (including, now, direct migration-invasion in small boats across the Channel, thousands of the bastards per day), crushing “austerity” for the poorer half of the society, ridiculous policies about the “Covid” “panicdemic” etc, an inability of Government to supply (directly, or via the private and/or third sectors) services vital to the people (such as trains, road repair, NHS or other healthcare, social care for various groups). Also, a failure to guard our borders, and a failure to clamp down on real crime (theft, drug abuse, social nuisance etc)., while kow-towing to Jewish/Zionist pressure re. social media non-crime.

Now we see idiots such as Ann Widdecombe criticizing parents who cannot afford to feed their children cheese sandwiches, while pumping billions out to “Ukraine” (the Jewish regime in Kiev) and to house and feed unwanted nuisances who have arrived via unauthorized Channel crossings.

Talk to people, and you get a sense of weary resignation in them, rather than anger, though that may also be there, under the urbane English exterior.

Still, there is everything yet to play for. The NSDAP vote in Germany was only 2.6% in 1928. Events happened, and the NSDAP triumphed only 4-5 years later.

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/may/17/online-estate-agent-purplebricks-sold-charles-dunstone-strike

Purplebricks, the once high-flying online estate agent that reached a peak valuation of more than £1.3bn, has been sold to Charles Dunstone-backed rival Strike for £1 with all of its more than 750 staff put at risk of redundancy.

Purplebricks launched in 2014 and received early backing from Neil Woodford, the former star stockpicker. It floated on London’s junior market, Aim, in December 2015.”

[The Guardian].

Another example of the madness of crowds, and the madness of finance-capitalism, though I concede that there are arguments to the contrary.

Remember Lastminute.com? The newspapers boosted that simple and actually not very clever idea, made an entitled/privileged and silly woman (and her Jewish business partner) incredibly wealthy in the speculative scramble, but it ended with the small shareholders all wiped out; cheated, in reality.

The woman was even elevated to the Lords by David Cameron-Levita. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lastminute.com and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha_Lane_Fox.

The only thing that can be said is that at least most of those small shareholders lost only a few hundred pounds, if that, their share allocations having been very small.

Lastminute is still, I think, trading, technically. I tried to use the booking service once, about 20 years ago. Useless.

As to Purplebricks, looks as if many shareholders are now left with the value of their shareholding being worth little more than 1% of the peak valuation.

Late tweets

“Jack Monroe”, someone with a 10+ year history of successful “grifting” and fraud, yet a few nincompoops in the msm have still not woken up to her dishonesty.

Looks as though she is more or less washed up now as a public figure or minor “celebrity”, despite 430 mugs still sending her a total of thousands of pounds each month via Patreon.

A worrying sign of the times

When American society finally collapses (and I think that that day will be much much sooner than 99.99% of other people think…), it will not be because of Jews, or blacks, or browns, or LGBTXYZ people, or finance-capitalist exploitation, or “woke” pseudo-socialism. It will be because of a cocktail of all of that.

Some people might think, “if I had a Luger, I might reach for it, if it would save the UK from going the way of the USA.” Sadly, a Luger (or a Browning, or a Sig-Sauer, or a Glock) will not help in this situation…you cannot fight a culture war with, primarily, weapons designed for an old-style or other real (shooting) war. More subtle —and yet wider— methods are required.

More about the Jewish-Zionist recapture of the Labour Party

I never thought much of Jeremy Corbyn, that unoriginal, poorly-educated, not particularly intelligent survival of 1970s London “socialist” meets “identity” politics. Corbyn, with his ludicrous “Cable Street”, “!Non Pasaran”, 1930s Popular Front-ism, his adulation of Fidel and Che (and, latterly, Chavez/Maduro).

Having said that, Corbyn, whose actual election as Labour leader was nothing short of miraculous, was recognizably British and, as I said in my blog, a type reminiscent of Labour people one met from time to time in the 1970s: the “Lenin” cap, the folded copy of, as it might be, Morning Star, Tribune, or Militant. The sort of fellow likely to be encountered at Collet’s London Bookshop in Charing Cross Road (a haunt of 1970s politicos of various sorts, and run by a little Jew).

Such people as Corbyn might also, I think, be encountered (though not by me) at local Labour or trade union meetings, steam fairs, heritage railways, the Durham Miners’ Gala, or the Tolpuddle Martyrs weekend.

I disagreed with much of Corbyn’s ideology, and with most of his (outdated and sometimes anti-British) policies. Having said that, he was decently anti-Zionist, though sadly gave lip-service to Zionist underpinnings such as the “holocaust” farrago and “anti-racism”, thus playing into the hands of the Jewish Zionist lobby, which itself is as “racist” as it gets, at root.

Zionism after all is basically a Jewish version of the Germanic “Blut und Boden” plus settler-colonialism (not that I oppose thatif done by real Europeans, though).

From the moment the Corbyn became Labour leader, there was a conspiracy launched against him. This was basically a Jewish/Zionist conspiracy, though making use of non-Jews (Chuka Umunna, Joan Ryan, Mary Creagh etc) and even the odd apostate Jew MP.

That conspiracy was funded by extremely wealthy Jew businessmen, and was able to rent quietly-situated houses in the country where secret meetings took place, and to utilize slush funds sourced directly from Israel.

Many will recall a (very) few TV programmes (very rarely seen in the msm) about the sheer scope of the Israeli/Jewish/Zionist lobby in the UK:

Sometimes that “lobby”, acting partly via Labour Friends of Israel and Conservative Friends of Israel, directs its attention to UK Middle East policy; sometimes, however, the interference is even more blatant, and extends to getting rid of MPs not willing to toe the Israel/Jewish lobby line.

Here below, for example, we see corrupt freeloader and expenses cheat, former “Labour” MP Joan Ryan, discussing a one million pound Israeli slush fund with one Shai Masot, an Israeli political intelligence officer (and reserve naval commander):

…and below, we see Israeli agent (of some kind) Maria Strizzolo (Italian name but, well, who knows?), and who, despite being a civil servant, talks about helping the Israelis to “take down” some British MPs:

I like the bit about the Israeli view of “Boris”, i.e. “...he is good, solid on Israel…you know he is an idiot...”. Yes, in fact, I did know that…

More on the above:

“Boris”, in following days, shrugged off and laughed about the above, even about the accurate Israeli assessment of himself (“an idiot“). What else could that sleazy part-Jew puppet do?

Reverting to the Labour Party and Corbyn, the conspiracy continued for about 3 years. A few msm stories over recent years:

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/6958056/12-labour-mps-in-secret-plot-to-oust-jeremy-corbyn-hold-secret-summit-at-farmhouse-and-plot-how-to-take-back-control/

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7341209/Jeremy-Corbyn-blocked-prime-minister-MPs-says-defector-Chuka-Umunna.html;

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6716379/Will-Labour-split-hours-Anti-Corbyn-rebels-poised-make-statement.html;

Of course, the msm stories never mentioned “Jews” or “Jewish” or “Israel”…it was all about how “moderates” wanted to oust “extremist” Corbyn, though the idea that Corbyn was “anti-Semitic” became a drumming tom-tom over time.

The first ploy was to hold a leadership election to remove Corbyn. That misfired when most ordinary Labour members voted Corbyn rather than for the little Welsh windbag who opposed him.

The 2017 General Election, though superficially poor for Labour, was no worse, in percentage terms, than had occurred under Miliband and Brown.

The (((lobby))) then increased pressure on Corbyn himself, trying to pressure him to resign. That too failed, because Corbyn’s strong suit is that he has the hide of a rhinoceros.

Then came the 2019 General Election, at which Labour crashed, and the msm crowed about how “Boris” had won by a “landslide“. In seats, true, an 80-seat majority. FPTP voting did its work.

In terms of percentages, though, the Conservative Party garnered 43.6% of the popular vote, only 1.2 points higher than the 42.4% of 2017.

Labour’s overall vote did crash— 32.1%, as against 40% in 2017. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_United_Kingdom_general_election

What made the difference? Several factors. One was the perception that Labour MPs were often dim black women. Many were (and are): Fiona Onasanya, Kate Osamor, Claudia Webbe, Dawn Butler, Diane Abbott etc. Two of those have also now been convicted of crimes, one (so far) actually imprisoned. I have blogged about at least two of them: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/12/21/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-fiona-onasanya-story/; and https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/12/02/troop-cartload-barrel-or-family/.

Other factors existed, but one stands out— the daily drip-drip of msm and (less important) social media poison about “Corbyn the anti-Semite”, “Corbyn the friend of terrorists”, “Corbyn the extremist” etc. BBC, Sky, the newspapers….and guess “what sort of people” are often the political editors and scribblers? That’s right… Zionist Jews.

Just off the top of my head, I can think of several organizations of mainstream media where the political editor(s) are Jewish: Sky News, LBC, various newspapers. No doubt other TV stations, radio stations and social media platforms are the same.

All that crushed both Corbyn and Labour. Don’t take my word for it, take it from the horse’s mouth:

Now? Corbyn has been replaced by Keir Starmer, a dull fellow but, significantly, one married to a Jewish woman, and their children are being brought up as if fully Jewish.

Corbyn has been suspended from the Labour Party, and the new Keir Starmer Shadow Cabinet is packed with Labour Friends of Israel members.

The Zionist lobby likes to have both main System parties “under control”. Corbyn’s leadership meant that one escaped, for a while. Now the stray sheep has been herded back into the pen. Both System parties are controlled, certainly strongly influenced, by the (((same or similar))) cabals.

More? Look at the kind of evil creatures involved (a long series of tweets but worth seeing):

Ruth Smeeth, half-Jewish, partly-descended from London gangsters, was not only the head of communications at the Israel-lobby org BICOM [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britain_Israel_Communications_and_Research_Centre] but, before being pushed into a quite-safe Labour seat, was revealed by Wikileaks as having been effectively a spy for the US Embassy in London. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Smeeth (the bit about the US Embassy is not there). She is also tied up with the mainly Jewish “antifascist” org misnamed “Hope not Hate”. She lost her seat as MP to a Conservative candidate in 2019, but her main job was done…

Ironically, Ruth Smeeth, who favours clamping down on freedom of expression (if, inter alia, Jews or Israel are criticized), is now head of the NGO called “Index on Censorship”. Incredible.

The above EU/Brexit stuff is not, in itself, very relevant, not specifically.

That is not all. I have not even (today) yet mentioned the role played in Labour’s near-collapse by sex pest depressive case John Woodcock, former “Labour” MP, who now poses as “Lord Walney”. I have blogged about this sinister individual in the past: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2021/02/09/diary-blog-9-february-2021-including-further-assessment-of-john-woodcock/; and https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/05/04/john-woodcock-barrow-and-furness-and-the-general-election-2017/.

God. What a horrible creature.

That unpleasant-looking young Jew in the centre (name unknown to me) was the one sitting and smirking next to expenses cheat and Israel-puppet MP, Joan Ryan, when Israeli political intelligence operative Shai Masot explained that a million pounds had been approved for use as a slush fund at Westminster.

A late thought: when Starmer is en famille, and having one of those specifically Jewish evenings that they have on (I think) Fridays, or on Jewish religious holidays, does he wear one of those little skullcaps? As they say on Twitter (from which I have been barred since 2018), “genuine question”. I have no idea whether the headgear is de rigueur or not.

More tweets

The tweets below made me laugh:

Ha ha! At the English Bar, it has always been said that, in the examination or cross-examination of a witness, never ask a question to which you do not know the answer.

The first tweeter, a scribbler who describes herself as “zionist“, and who has (supposedly) nearly 40,000 Twitter “followers”, asks the question. She gets just over a thousand retweets from her “followers” (and/or stray Twitter readers).

That may or may not mean that 39,000 of her “followers” either disagree with her, or cannot be bothered to retweet, or that they think that she should have given an alternative option such as “like” for “No”, or even “history can be and should be examined and revised, because an asserted “fact”, or asserted “facts”, are not a religious article of faith but a matter for consideration of all or any evidence.”

Still, there are 65 million inhabitants in the UK, and only about a thousand agreed with the proposition. 1 out of every 65,000. Or to put it another way, only 1 out of every 40 of her own supposed Twitter “followers”.

Speaks volumes…

As to the second tweeter, he/she does not seem to have considered that 39,000 out of 40,000 “followers” disagree, that even some Jews think that history is a moveable feast, revision necessary and even inevitable, and that people have the right to question such doubtful propaganda as comprise the “holocaust” farrago.

Ah. I see now that the first tweeter is in the USA, so the proportion either not agreeing with her, and/or not interested in her silly tweet, is many times even the above figures.

Good to see.

Parting shot: the Jewish woman who seems to want to restrict free speech on the fakeries and fraud around the Jew-Zionist “holocaust” farrago also claims to be in favour of freedom of expression! See below:

“Their” lack of self-awareness is always hard to believe.

Professor Haushofer is said to have believed that control of the Central Asian space conferred mastery of the world. No clear sign of that so far. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Haushofer.

Haushofer’s theory does work, however, if Central Asia is used merely as the notional centrepoint of a Eurasian superstate comprised of Northern and Central Europe, Scandinavia, Finland, Russia/Siberia, and the more northerly of the other Russophone regions, notably Kazakhstan.

True, but “those in glass houses…”

Kermode is just one example, perhaps typical, of a certain type of person favoured by the msm, especially the BBC. We must eventually have a massive cultural purge in the UK: the BBC, Sky, ITV, comedians, TV people, ad agency people etc. An Augean Stables situation.

Still, while not being terribly interested in the topic of rock and roll, I daresay that the fame of Eric Clapton will long outlive that of Mark Kermode. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Clapton, and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Kermode; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Kermode#Personal_life

Incidentally, Kermode’s reference to 1976 seems to be covered as follows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Clapton#%22Keep_Britain_White%22.

I have never met either of the above people, am not hugely interested in either, and am not (as such) biased in favour of either, though in the interests of “transparency” I suppose that I should add that, in the 1990s, I did know someone who had been friendly with Clapton and his Italian then girlfriend.

Alison Chabloz

Usually-reliable sources report that, though still incarcerated at Bronzefield Prison (near Heathrow), Alison is in excellent spirits.

Alison has apparently just been transferred to a different wing of the prison. She has a cell of her own, which contains, inter alia, a new mattress and a television which receives 30 channels, as well as all UK radio stations.

Alison’s cell door remains open all day, she can come and go as she pleases, and can shower, or go out for fresh air, whenever she wants.

One amusing point: it seems that a prisoner recognized Alison from last year and that, as a result, Alison was introduced to a number of other prisoners, who asked her to perform her songs. This resulted in what perhaps could be described as a general “sing-song”, the prisoners singing along with Alison. Pity that it could not have been filmed and distributed on social media. That would have made “you know who” (((s))) fume!

In other Alison Chabloz news, her upcoming trial has been deferred to a later date. It had been set down for today, 1 September 2021, with a time estimate of one day. That date was vacated recently. Now it seems that the trial will be held on a later date, if the matter proceeds at all.

So much for the Gulf Arabs. Just useless and cowardly hypocrites, whose micro-“states” do not deserve to survive.

Better idea than saving a statue— get rid of those individuals, groups, and types who want to destroy our history, race and culture, and are working towards our annihilation.

37,000+?! How many “interpreters” etc did the UK have in Afghanistan? This is just more migration-invasion. I reluctantly agree to the evacuation of a relative few ex-collaborators and their families, on the ground of honour and loyalty (they could perhaps be funded to make a fresh start outside the UK, and outside Europe, in a more suitable region and jurisdiction), but not to this nonsense.

On the wider point, the Western allies have deserted many of those who worked with them in Afghanistan. The USA, as main component in the occupation, has shown itself to be unreliable and, indeed, disloyal. A matter which may prove to be a strategic error of large proportions.

This needs to become the norm in the UK as well.

4 August 2021

A very truncated blog post today (by reason of a computer connection problem), so I shall write a little tonight, then add more tomorrow.

Facemask nonsense

While running a few errands yesterday (in the American phrase), I saw quite a few silly people still wearing masks even outdoors, including several people wearing them while walking on a clifftop overlooking the Channel! In a strong breeze of at least 15 mph, at that! I saw one family, a man, woman and two small children, all masked on the clifftop! They must have noticed my gaze, or realized the absurdity of their behaviour, because I noticed that when they walked back 10 minutes later, only the woman was still wearing the mask.

Admittedly, most people were not wearing the masks outdoors, but in a Tesco supermarket about 6 miles from my home, more wearing masks than not. However, no-one looked oddly at unmasked me, let alone said some, or any, virtue-signalling nonsense.

I get the impression that, now, the facemasks are less about any perceived (wrongly imagined) health benefits and more about saying “look, I am a member of the virtue-signallers’ tribe”…

Oddly, in view of the fact that most Jews (at least on Twitter) seem to be facemask zealots, I saw a horrible-looking Jewish woman unmasked; not at that supermarket, but in a large village somewhat inland; she was with not only three small children (one actually wearing one of those skullcaps…a yarmulka?), but also two even younger ones, pushed in a double pushchair. None were masked, in fact. An unpleasant sight all the same. An unusual thing to see in this part of the world.

Now that Fiona Onasanya is no longer an MP, Claudia Webbe may be the flag-carrier for thick-as-two-short-planks non-white female MPs in the Commons. Painfully thick.

Ha. Quite. Seems that the holes in cloth masks are 500,000x the size of “Covid-19” particles. In other words, facemasks are all but pointless. The main reason millions of “rabbits” are still wearing them (many even outside!) is because those deluded people want to proclaim that they are members of the tribe and/or good compliant citizen-serfs.

A couple of days ago, I saw two teenage girls, maybe 16-17, talking on the high street of a small town. Strong sunshine, a fairly strong breeze, no people anywhere near them either, and they were both wearing facemasks! One black mask and one polka dot mask. The masks did not match their outer clothing, anyway! Why were they behaving like that? God knows. Social conditioning. MSM conditioning. Such people are beyond reach. I drove on, shaking my head…

The illicit purported “laws” are now in place. Should the government of clowns want to mandate facemasks again, say in November, or December, 2021, and on some spurious biosecurity ground, they will be able to do so, and millions of citizen-serfs will obey, at once.

Kate Ferguson, who is apparently Westminster Correspondent at the Sun “newspaper”, and who apparently does not know that the phrase she is trying to use is a variant of “…and with one bound he was free”… I mean, this is not some ignorant pleb tweeting. Oh, no…wait…

Yet another unintended comment on the state of British “journalism” and “journalists” today.

There are few considered more anti-Israel or “antisemitic” than me, but credit where due— this is, on the face of it, a tremendous achievement.

The “virus” fall-out

The various Government measures to mitigate, not the virus but the Government’s own policies in relation to it (“lockdowns”, “tiers”, quarantining, etc) bought off real popular opposition last year. The Government took a leaf from the book of Aneurin Bevan [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aneurin_Bevan], who said that he had bought off opposition from medical doctors to the establishment of the NHS by having “stuffed their mouths with gold” (i.e. allowing senior doctors (“consultants”) to take on private work as well as receiving relatively high NHS pay).

“Furlough” payments ensured that, in 2020, many received effectively the same pay as before, but for no work (“furlough” was capped at 80% of net pay to a maximum of £2,500 p.c.m., but that was close to 100% for most, when the costs of just having a job are factored in: travel, snacks, drinks, clothes etc).

Many others were able to “work from home”, which might have had disadvantages for some but many advantages for others: no travel costs; a saving of (?) 1-5 hours of travel on the day, depending on the commute; the possibility to organize the day to suit the employee; no “boss” people supervizing the employee directly, or able to see what the employee is doing during the working day.

Naturally, the higher-paid working from home would have been, and are, in a better position than the lower-paid: perhaps large detached houses, perhaps also with swimming pools, tennis courts, large gardens in which to relax etc. One could imagine some, working in between swimming, and perhaps drinking Chardonnay ordered online and delivered to the door (I seem to remember that, even nearly 20 years ago, Sainsbury’s would not only deliver my wife’s orders, but actually take the stuff into the kitchen for her).

Also, companies started to demand Government help. Even those run by tax exiles such as Richard Branson. Some help was given.

Not everyone was taken care of by Government largesse. The self-employed, thhose running the smaller and one-man companies etc. The majority of the population, though, was shut up in both senses by Government order and Government money. Even the unemployed (etc) on Universal Credit, got a £20 a week increase.

Now, however, after much to-ing and fro-ing, we find ourselves back in “lockdown”.

Once again, the furlough is extended. Once again, failing businesses are, in some cases, being propped up, smaller airports among them. For how long, though?

Today, we heard that Newquay Airport (which I myself used a few times in the past) will be given money. I do not know whether other airports I used to use, e.g. Exeter and Southampton, are in a similar position.

Let us examine what might happen. Let us say that “the virus”, whether because of natural decline, the vaccine(s), whatever, disappears some time in 2021 from the UK. Air travel will take a long long time to recover, especially if countries are to insist on quarantines and “virus-free” certification. Will UK airports, airlines, ground services etc need or demand propping-up for years? Is that even possible?

We read that the UK Government can borrow money at very low, almost zero, interest at present. Good, but for how long?

We now read that the Government wants to reduce Universal Credit by £20 a week, while chucking those currently on it £500 in cash. There may be a revolt by Conservative MPs, and a possible Government defeat in the coming days.

The argument over UC payments presages coming disputes. No matter how much can currently be borrowed by the UK Government, eventually that will become unsustainable. What then? Already, State benefits paid to the unemployed are at their lowest since 1992 and, according to other calculation, overall benefits were not this low in real terms since the 1960s, which however was a era of, effectively, full employment.

The present government cannot simply, say, raise the State Pension (“Old Age Pension”, as was) entitlement age from 66, where it will be from 2022, to he age of 67, or 68, or 70, not without a massive backlash from voters aged over 65, and they are a half of all Conservative supporters: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-politics-47909281. They are also far more likely to vote.

In other words, if the present government hits the pensioners or those looking at shortly becoming pensioners, it is toast.

The Government is looking at the unemployed and others as targets because they are less significant electorally, though at the same time, 40% of UC claimants are actually not unemployed but are in low-paid work.

Unsurprisingly, Indian “clever boy” Rishi Sunak is not going to introduce a windfall wealth tax. He wants to extract money from the poor or poor-ish, while not dooming his party electorally.

What about demand in the economy? Already low. The poor spend all or almost all of what they have; they have no choice. The rich, given extra money, invest it, often in hedging assets: property, savings accounts, gold etc. It makes sense to give more to the poor and less to the rich (however defined).

Once the various mitigation measures tail off, unemployment —and discontent—– will soar.

One can see storms coming. God grant social-nationalism the way in which to take advantage of them for the good of the people. “For the good of the people is the highest law” [Cicero].

Meanwhile, the USA has concentration camps today, both at Guantanamo and elsewhere, including secret ones. The inmates are in many cases treated as badly or worse than were those in WW2 Germany, or even the Soviet Union’s GULAG operation. The American concentration camps have doctors too, as does the CIA.

Peter Hitchens makes, once again, a good point, but fails to point out that the present Kiev regime, posing as the legitimate overnment of the Ukraine, is a complete Jewish-Zionist sham. All the top ministers are Jewish, and at least one is actually an Israeli!

The whole point of the law is its cool impartiality, its judgment of the facts by a jury, and of the law by an impartial, dispassionate judge. If judges are going to start offering politico-medical lectures from the bench, it changes us into a completely different kind of country. In effect, a defendant in such cases is on trial for his opinions, not his actions.

Does Judge Matthews desire such a state of affairs? I doubt it. In that case she should not do this again. But I fear someone else will. Much that we used to know and trust about this country is vanishing with amazing speed.” [Peter Hitchens, Daily Mail].

All very true. Part of the problem is that “District Judges” (the old stipendiary magistrates) are not, in the traditional sense, real “judges”. Mostly solicitors who have applied for these rather simple jobs, which however pay quite well (I think that a full-time DJ gets about £110,000 p.a. now).

Anyone English or British who tries to indoctrinate British children with “BLM” nonsense and poison is poisonous, and an enemy.

Sadly for Rachel “@frangrantfeline”, the person with whom she wanted to speak (@BRLMatter) seems to have been removed from Twitter. Another example of System/ZOG censorship and repression?

I think so too, but it is a long time since I practised at the Bar, and I was certainly never a specialist in the construction of statute law, or in the validity of “advice” or regulations purportedly made under secondary law and/or primary law.

Quite. Also, while we are on the subject of American (government) behaviour, I have been struck by the hypocrisy of “the West” over the events in Belarus.

AsI have blogged previously, Belarus is, in effect, a dictatorship, though a far better one than many which the West supports with words and arms (inter alia, Saudi Arabia, Brunei, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar), not to mention China.

I daresay that there is discontent in Belarus, arising mainly from economic conditions, as well as those factors arising from relative lack of political freedom.

Having said that, the Western msm has been overplaying the “brutal tyranny” stuff. I hear on radio, see on TV, read about the repression of the discontent. Some people obviously have been badly treated, beaten etc. However, I also heard that some of those detained, and some who were ill-treated, were in fact released within hours, in some case a day or so, of having been detained.

In addition, some of the protesters themselves have admitted that the Belarus KGB and police were unwilling, generally speaking, to hit or brutalize women and old people. They obviously have some moral or ethical principles. European standards.

Compare that to how the USA often treats those whom it detains or abducts: “waterboarding”, i.e. cruel torture (in one case done dozens of times a day to a prominent prisoner, for reasons of sadism); hooding for hours, days, even weeks; cruel restraint techniques; use of attack dogs etc.

The names of the American “facilities” or concentration camps (those not still secret) are notorious: Guantanamo, Bagram, Abu Ghraib. Things were and perhaps are done there that have not been claimed even of the Soviet GULAG system, or during the German rule over Eastern Europe in the early 1940s.

When Johnny Mercer was first elected (2015), I thought that he would be a rare honest MP and a breath of fresh air at Westminster. Sadly, I was wrong. He has turned out to be basically a moneygrubber and waste of space (and a total woodentop): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mercer_(politician); https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mercer_(politician)#Controversies

Most ex-professional soldiers (in peacetime) who become MPs turn out to be useless.

To me, who was in Australia (Mosman/Cremorne, Sydney, NSW) for 2-3 years as a child of 10-13 (1967-69), it is incredible to see what a police state Australia has become. When I was there, the whole country had only 12 million people (it’s 25 million now). It was a white European-origined population, mostly of British ancestry. Now, very mixed. Result? You see it…

It occurs to me that Australia is being used as a laboratory, and its people as lab rats. Mixed population now (they have even imported Africans!); then made to fear “the virus”, with strict “lockdowns” and facemask police state-ism and all that nonsense.

Meanwhile, Australia has entered its first economic recession for about 35 years…

Why? Because the msm is basically controlled or very strongly influenced by the NWO, ZOG, and the associated Jewish lobby. That’s why…

The Government has no legal right to impose the severe and miserable restrictions on our lives with which it has wrecked the economy, brought needless grief to the bereaved and the lonely and destroyed our personal liberty.

This is the verdict of one of the most distinguished lawyers in the country, the retired Supreme Court Judge Lord Sumption.

He said last week in a podcast interview: ‘I don’t myself believe that the Act confers on the Government the powers that it has purported to exercise.’”

He was referring to the Public Health Act of 1984, the basis for almost all the sheaves of increasingly hysterical decrees against normal life which the Health Secretary Matt Hancock has issued since March. I promise you that it is not usual for a retired senior judge to use such language in public.

This 1984 Act was drawn up mainly to give local magistrates the power to quarantine the sick. 

Nothing in it remotely justifies these astonishing moves – house arrest, travel restrictions, harsh limits on visiting family members, interference with funerals and weddings, closure of churches, compulsory muzzles, bans on assembly and protest.

English law just does not allow an Act of Parliament to be stretched so far.” [Peter Hitchens, quoting Lord Sumption, Daily Mail].

…and just in case you still imagine that you live in a “free country”, the Daily Mail has tipped the wink to its readers: “Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.” Quite. That would be going too far, would it not? After all, some of the comments would be about ZOG and NWO, and even “the Great Reset” etc…

SNP and Scottish independence

I have always found the SNP idea of Scottish “independence” odd. Free Scotland from Westminster and England, but not from supranational bodies such as the EU, NATO (probably), the international banking matrix, or the UN.

Also, what kind of nationalism is it that says that a Pakistani born or even simply living in, say, Glasgow, is more “Scottish” than a white European, say English but with Scottish or part-Scottish ancestry, and who may be living in England, maybe only on the border at Berwick on Tweed?

If Scotland departs, then it will be considerably poorer than it now is. Money is not everything, true, but the only benefit I can see to Independence is the right to stop mass immigration etc, and the SNP policies indicate that their intention is the opposite.

Having said that, if the majority of Scots want to pull away from the Union, then I say go with good wishes, so long as you do not become an enemy state.

Thoughts about the public mood in the UK as a government of clowns tries to act like a conclave of petty tyrants (forget “statesmen”)

We have seen the government of clowns first frighten the public out of its skin, then beg members of that public to return to work (muzzled on trains and buses), and we have seen all the other contradictory policies of a government that obviously has no idea of what it is doing; abetted by a non-Opposition that really just echoes the Government.

We also see much about how many people have got used to not going to work because paid as much or nearly as much (and in net terms, maybe more) to stay home and work online, or furloughed (paid by State benefit). Now we see others than Peter Hitchens telling people off for staying home etc, when the real culprits are the Cabinet of Boris-idiot, the ludicrously-misnamed “SAGE” committee, most MPs, and the compliant msm.

The fact is that the economy is crashing to a halt or at least a low point, all so that a virus which is not killing people now, can be confronted (and so that the Government is not exposed as totally incompetent).

Today, msm reports are that 3,300 people tested positive for “the virus”, and the number that died from it was…5. Not 500, not 50, but 5.

Resistance is growing.

Rename it: “Operation Bullshot” is a good name for it.

Seems that Dan Hodges wants things to return to “normal” in a situation where many do not: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-8701473/DAN-HODGES-Left-dont-care-Costa-staff-losing-jobs.html

Where are the public on this? I detected (look at my blogs posts from as long ago as April or even March) that the public mood was by no means gung-ho to return to work etc, even discounting the fear factor so incessantly whipped up by the government.

My view was and still is that people would like a better way of organizing the work-life balance. Less work, or less frenetic work, more leisure or at least other, more personal work, nearer to home.

I have, in earlier blog posts, postulated the idea of “a society of measure” to set against both the existing (pre-virus) frenetic workaholic society and also against the 1960s idea of the “society of leisure”.

In practical terms, that could mean people working fewer hours per week, or the same number of hours per week but on fewer days, such as 10 hours a day for 4 days per week, or even 13 hours per day for 3 days per week, leaving 3-4 days per week for other activity.

My view is that there should be one day a week when all or almost all shops etc are shut. That creates rhythm in the society.

A start must also be made with Basic Income, even if at first that Income does not cover even all basic necessities.

I think that the public, as individuals and families, are ready to consider other forms of societal organization. If paid work (talking about persons employed by others) occupies 3-4 days per week, and if a measure of Basic Income exists, people will be free to start businesses of their own in the remaining 2-3 days (with 1 day as “day of total leisure”).

This is not just pie in the sky. J.K. Rowling has written about how it was only the relatively more generous “welfare” arrangements of the 1990s that enabled her to sit in cafes writing Harry Potter. It was not that more money was given, though that might also have been true in real terms, but that she was not harried by DWP staff constantly (as her equivalent would now be under a system which was made far harsher by the part-Jap Iain “Duncan” Smith and the Jew “lord” Freud and others).

Because J.K. Rowling was not harried by petty bureaucrats, she was able to write her first bestselling book, which has created a huge industry for this country: books, films, spinoffs.

My sense is that people generally want a society which is less pressured.

As for the “measures” taken by government, most people are now rather sceptical, but the constant msm propaganda (esp. but not only on the BBC) is keeping some fear instilled too.
