[El Greco, Adoration of the Name]

The future of Europe, and the future of the world

Our present civilization cannot continue to exist, still less evolve to a higher level, without a firm ethno-cultural foundation. In practice, that means a very significant proportion of white Northern European people in the world, and the world largely under the control of such people.

Angela Rayner, her careerism, and her hypocrisy on Palestine and Gaza etc

[“Here’s why I have less than no sympathy for Angela Rayner.

@DalloulAhmed, a Palestinian takeaway owner, was a constituent of hers. She’d met him several times, visited his shop and posed for pictures with him, emphasised her support for Palestinian freedom. She gave him a tour of Parliament. They repeatedly corresponded by text message.

Within weeks of the genocide, his mother, brother, sister-in-law, and two little nieces were murdered in an Israeli air strike. He was desperate to evacuate his wife and little daughter, only 4 months old, from Gaza. This little child was buried under rubble three times by Israeli attacks.

He emailed Angela Rayner twice to seek her help evacuating his family. She ignored him. He then turned up to a Labour fundraiser in January 2024, and stood up, clutching pictures of his dead mother, talking about his murdered family, asking for Angela’s support for a ceasefire. She knew exactly who this man was. He was then thrown out of the meeting and on to the street by security like he was trash. She did nothing, and simply said “Thank you, you’ve made your point.”

Just take a moment to absorb what was happening here. A Palestinian man she was friendly with, whose family had been slaughtered by a British-facilitated Israeli onslaught, whose pleas to evacuate his wife and daughter had been ignored by her, stood up holding photos of his murdered mother, pleading for her to take a stand against the violence slaughtering her family.

It gets worse. A few days later she was interviewed about the incident by Sky News’ @BethRigby, who framed it as an example of the sort of threats that politicians have to face.

Here is one utterly repulsive example of the dehumanisation of Palestinians. Imagine this was a Israeli man whose family had been killed on 7th October. If the same thing had happened, it would have caused a national scandal and ruined Angela Rayner’s career long before any stamp duty row.

Since this hideous episode, so many of Dalloul’s loved ones have been murdered by the Israeli government that their names fill three pages. Angela served as deputy prime minister in a government which continued to arm and facilitate this genocide.

I used to have huge respect for Angela Rayner. But she’s someone whose pursuit of power led her to make an accommodation with the worst people in the history of the Labour Party. The great moral test of our time was Israel’s genocide, and a belief that Palestinians are human beings of equal worth. Angela failed that test. Her political demise should be mourned by no one.“]

[Owen Jones]

Her political demise should be mourned by no-one“, writes faux-revolutionary socialist Owen Jones. Who is mourning it anyway? Anyone? I myself have scarcely stopped laughing! I especially like the fact that Angela Rayner’s salary will now be half of what it was, and that her expenses and perks will be much cut back. The newspapers say that the horrible bitch may even have to sell her latest taxpayer-funded holiday home.

Boo-hoo. She may even have to cut back on “vapes”, tattoos, and expensive new clothes (now that wealthy Labour donors are —supposedly— no longer paying for her clothes shopping).

Also, there is at least a sporting chance that Angela Rayner can be unseated at the next general election, either by Reform UK or by Corbyn’s new “real Labour” party, if it ever gets off the ground. Her share of the vote has declined steadily since 2017: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashton-under-Lyne_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

Raus! Into the dustbin of UK political history!

I assessed Owen Jones on the blog long ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/04/a-brief-word-about-owen-jones/

Palestinian prisoners in Israel are starved, beaten, tortured, refused medical care

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/sep/07/israels-supreme-court-says-government-is-not-giving-palestinian-prisoners-enough-food

[Israeli human rights group]…said the prison service has “turned Israeli prisons into torture camps”. “A state does not starve people,” it said. “People do not starve people – no matter what they have done.”

Even the Jews’ own Supreme Court of Israel admits it. This is what the pro-Israel Jews and others in the UK, USA, France etc (eg the appalling Richard Tice, of Reform UK) are supporting.

The Jew-Zionist lobby, particularly the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] and its lying and perjuring spokespersons and supporters (all or virtually all Jews), are the major source of malicious anti-free-speech complaints to the police and professional regulators.

Spectacular.

The whole of Europe, including the UK, has to be cleared out.

Not only is Paris now far far worse than it was 54 years ago, in 1971, when I (then aged 14) lived for 3 weeks with a French couple in the 5th arrondisement, but worse even than it was during the German Occupation of 1940-44.

[Paris, early 1940s: cafe for German soldiers and nurses]

There has to be a massive chistka across, mainly, Western and Central Europe.

Well, many of the Jews that came to Palestine after 1945 were the sweepings of the ghettos, camps, and prisons of Europe. Naturally, they behaved as such degenerate and criminal elements were always likely to behave…

[“Ramon Airport, the occupation’s southern gateway, just took a direct hit from a Yemeni kamikaze drone. Enemy media confirms the strike came from Yemen, slamming into the passenger hall before the IOF sealed off the site, shut the airspace, and slapped on full censorship. Even their own journalists are asking why the sirens stayed silent, letting the aircraft cross in without warning. Ansar Allah has now proven once again it can reach deep into occupied territory, bypassing Israel’s sensors and hitting strategic civilian–military dual-use hubs. Every unanswered siren is another reminder that the so-called Iron Dome can’t stop what’s coming.“]

The first of many such landings, I expect.

Evil little demons. I hope that, sooner rather than later, they get what’s coming to them.

More evil demons. Hopefully they, their families and tribe will also get what’s coming to them.

Probably the first of many.

Even if she and fake Labour wanted to stop the migration-invasion (which I doubt), what is a clown like Shabana Mahmood, or the Labour “Cabinet of Cretins” going to do? Nothing, or next to nothing.

Ban halal meat. Ban kosher meat.

Animal welfare trumps the religions of non-Europeans resident here.

The hordes of barbarians arriving here are a millstone round the neck of the British people.

He did it as a deliberate act. Part-Jew traitor “Boris”-idiot is an agent of the Coudenhove-Kalergi conspiracy:

Indeed, but as I predicted, Reform itself is being prepared to become a System party, as the “old parties” fail. One sees it in the non-European candidates, and in the pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby posturing (especially from Tice, Reform’s deputy leader).

I was reminded of the old joke about a Napoleonic-era battle. The battle is raging back and forth. On a nearby hill, non-combatants are watching, including a group of Jews. One Jew is especially excited, and is jumping up and down, shouting “we’re winning!“. Another asks him, “why are you so excited?“, to which the first Jew answers, “because our side is winning!”, and the other responds “which side is our side?”. The first Jew then answers, “the side that is winning!“…

Look at the Jew-Zionist pro-Israel march in London last weekend. The organizers invited Reform UK’s Tice to attend. He accepted that invitation, and was there helping to carry the main banner, along with the “CAA” liar and perjurer Gideon Falter, the fat woman who is the current Israeli Ambassador in London, and the Chief Rabbi of the UK.

In short, the fix is in. They know that Reform is quite likely to form the next government. That being so, Reform’s leaders are being cultivated.

I still hope that Reform will destroy the existing System parties. Once Reform has done that, and once Reform fails to deal with the major problems of society, especially the migration invasion and resultant multikulti society, a real social-national upsurge can manifest.

The vast majority of immigrants coming to this country are, at best, parasites. Quite a few are engaged in various levels of criminal activity. A relatively small number are active terrorists or are terrorist support agents.

One wonders who constitute the other 28%. Don’t-knows? Know-nothings? If blacks and browns were asked the question (as if “Brits“), then that might explain much.

As usual, Goodwin “forgets” to mention the main actively anti-free-speech group in the UK— the Jewish lobby or Israel lobby

The latest Israeli war crime(s).

Exactly (re. Ukraine) what I have been saying on the blog for 3-4 years.

Such brutal street abductions will not plug the gaps in the front-lines of the Kiev regime. 1,000-2,000 are being lost daily. Zelensky’s shambolic and corrupt dictatorship is doomed.

Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 4/10. I scored 9/10. I did not know the answer to question no.9 and, if truth be known, merely guessed no. 5 (it was the one I had in the back of my mind, though, when I saw the question). Question 1 has four or five possible “correct” answers; I knew one of them.

Exactly. Another Starmer-Labour trick. Exactly what we do not want— non-Europeans with Irish passports. That includes the mainly Irish “tinker”/”traveller” rabble, who admittedly are ethnically European, indeed Irish by origin, but often are also predators and scavengers, and parasites.

[“Exclusive: Rachel Reeves has warned cabinet ­ministers that tax rises in the autumn budget are likely to prove even more challenging than the £40 billion ­package she imposed in November The chancellor told cabinet on Tuesday that the decision to abandon welfare reforms meant taxes would have to rise to cover the cost She said the rises in her first budget, which included a £24 billion increase in employers’ national insurance contributions, were ‘painful’ but were the ‘low-hanging fruit’ Tax rises in the autumn are likely to be smaller than last year’s but she is still expected to have to raise tens of billions of pound. Reeves told ministers that would be a ‘big challenge’ given that she has limited options Ministers have been told that the spending review will not be reopened, meaning the bulk of any shortfall will have to come from tax rises Economists have warned that the scale of the hole in the public finances means that she may have to break ­Labour’s manifesto pledge not to ­increase income tax, national insurance or VAT. There are also suggestions that she could raid pension savings, which was rejected before the last budget Allies of Reeves say Labour rebels will have to ‘own’ the tax rises after they killed off welfare reforms. https://thetimes.com/article/9466ce73-ea71-4025-bd4e-bddbaf538d7b“]

That Jew, Finkelstein, now (absurdly) in the House of Lords, used to tweet to people who retweeted me (I was expelled from Twitter in 2018 after a concerted campaign by numbers of Jew-Zionists), demanding or “requesting” that they not retweet me.

How “typical”, though; Finkelstein supports mass immigration, i.e. invasion, of this country.

A couple of rounds from a police pistol would have punctured the boat as effectively. About 30 would have prevented another attempt. Extrapolate at leisure…

The British people are confused, exploited, stamped upon, invaded, frightened, and do not know where to turn. This is the moment when a real social national party and/or movement could make hay. Sadly, there is none.

About half of all Jews in the world live in Israel, the rest in a number of other states.

A rather nice Chevy Suburban. I wanted to get one of those a few years ago, but they are expensive when sold new in the UK; there are almost none used on sale, and actually they are not so convenient either, being heavy on fuel consumption and also rather outsize for roads and (especially) the cramped parking places in this country. The same is true of the Lincoln Navigator, though there are usually a few used ones for sale in the UK at reasonable prices.

Not that I am a car buff. I only had a driving licence from age 42, and for me the appropriate phrase would be “a second-class ride is better than a first-class walk“…

Well, as we know, the Jewish/Israeli tail wags the American/U.S. dog.

Surely the time has come for Russia to end this awful war by rolling over all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper. Looks like the window of opportunity is, or soon will be, there. Finish the conflict, drive out Zelensky’s cabal from Kiev, then rebuild in co-operation with the peoples of Eastern Ukraine.

Perhaps Woody Allen will make a film about it.

Radek Sikorski is a long-term NWO/ZOG insider. Look at his background and connections: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rados%C5%82aw_Sikorski; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rados%C5%82aw_Sikorski#Early_life_and_education; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rados%C5%82aw_Sikorski#Personal_life; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rados%C5%82aw_Sikorski#Minister_of_Foreign_Affairs_(2023%E2%80%93present).

Sooner or later, the inhabitants of Central Israel will wake up to a big bang. Or maybe not wake up.

Gaza and the fragmented West Bank are now being further “ethnically cleansed” by Jews.

“They” leave their victims with nothing, not even a few percent of the land that, a century ago, belonged entirely to the victims they have killed, driven out, or cheated.

Seems very unlikely to me. Rutte was a business executive [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Rutte], and really should leave grand strategy to others.

Interesting. Similar communities are springing up all over the USA, in Germany, and elsewhere.

“They” were behind the rigged Nuremberg “trials”. Perhaps that is a precedent that, one day, will be revisited.

Once Tice, Farage, Matt Goodwin etc have junked Lab and Con, the national revolution may finally start, swallowing them up too.

Looking at it globally, there is only one solution, overall.

Britain in 2025.

We need a society which draws on, inter alia, the more positive aspects of socialism, private enterprise, National Socialism, Grail Christianity, and New Age philosophies, in particular Anthroposophy (etc).

A very different kind of society.

We also have to “take out the rubbish”, even if that means doing things on a large scale which we might prefer to avoid.

Whatever it takes…

Saturday quiz

Well, this week a clear victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He claims 5.5/10, whereas I scored 8/10. I did not know the answers to questions 8 and 10.

[Update, 25 May 2025:

Wrong, Monsieur Rentoul…I got number 9 right (“ryokan”— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryokan) ]

Israel, “antisemitism”, and the continuing Israeli war crimes in Gaza

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/23/netanyahu-accused-of-slander-criticising-macron-carney-starmer

Benjamin Netanyahu was accused of slander and pursuing a war without end after he claimed the leaders of France, Canada and the UK were stoking antisemitism and siding with Hamas by demanding he end the two-month blockade of food and aid into Gaza.

In a post on X on Thursday evening, the Israeli prime minister said Hamas wanted to “destroy the Jewish state” and “annihilate the Jewish people”.

I could never understand how this simple truth evades the leaders of France, Britain, Canada and others,” Netanyahu said.

I say to President Macron, Prime Minister Carney and Prime Minister Starmer, when mass murderers, rapists, baby killers and kidnappers thank you, you’re on the wrong side of justice.”

[Guardian]

So now even Starmer-stein and Macron, both egregious puppets of the worldwide Jew-Zionist lobby and Israel, are called “antisemitic“! Carney, too, a former Goldman Sachs and central banker who is himself believed to be part-Jew (though his background is mainly Irish).

Is this the peak of such “gaslighting”? We in the UK have seen, for years now, the raucous Jew-Zionist lobby saying that almost anything not slavishly pro-Israel is “antisemitic”. The malicious and dishonest so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] has been in the forefront of it all, making false accusations about people to police and professional regulators, and spreading its poisonous propaganda on Sky News, GB News, the “does anyone actually watch?” Talk TV online outlet, and even the BBC.

Apart from that, imagine the lack of self-knowledge it takes for Netanyahu to accuse the admittedly unpleasant Hamas organization of being “mass murderers“, “baby killers” etc when the Hamas attack on Israel in late 2023 killed some thousand or so Jews and others (though many were in fact killed by the brutal Israeli forces themselves when the latter were killing Hamas operatives, and the Israeli victims seem to have “got in the way”) but when the Israeli retaliation in Gaza has killed anywhere between 150,000 and 200,000, mostly civilians rather than Hamas personnel.

In other words, in terms of numbers, the Israeli forces have killed between 150 and 200 Gazans for every one Israeli Jew killed during the 2023 incursion by Hamas personnel into southern Israel.

The Gazan population has been bombed, firebombed, attacked with white phosphorus, attacked with flamethrowers, shot at from the air and ground, rolled over by Israeli tanks, and killed also by an embargo on medical supplies and even food and water.

About half, more than half, of the victims of the Israeli forces in Gaza have been women and children, a huge proportion of the latter having been under the age of 12 (so not teenage fighters, of which Hamas seems to have few anyway); many of the victims have been babies, indeed. Netanyahu should look in the mirror, if he can bear it.

Incidentally, most of the original Israeli victims of the 2023 incursion were adults, and most were members of the Israeli armed forces, police, or other security orgs.

As previously blogged, if the Hamas operatives of 2023 were in part monstrous, indeed if the Palestinian Arabs generally are sometimes monstrous, then they have been made monstrous, and made so mainly by the actions and behaviour of Israel, and its supporters and facilitators elsewhere. Jews across the world raise money for Israel, including money specifically raised for the Israeli armed forces.

Are we coming to the point at which the “Western” world will (start to) throw off the shroud of (((control))) over Western economies, legal professions, politicians, newspapers, TV, radio etc, which (((control))) has become ever-heavier over the last 150 years, and particularly since the disastrous end of the Second World War in 1945?

Israel itself was founded on a foundation of mass murder and ethnic cleansing. The karma taken on by Israel and its population (and its supporters in the West) is very heavy, and gets heavier daily.

More Labour hypocrisy

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/may/23/labour-blocks-proposal-for-swift-bricks-in-all-new-homes

“Labour blocks proposal for ‘swift bricks’ in all new homes

MPs had previously backed Conservative amendment to ask developers to provide hollow bricks for endangered birds

Providing every new home with at least one “swift brick” to help endangered cavity-nesting birds has been rejected by Labour at the committee stage of its increasingly controversial planning bill.

The amendment to the bill to ask every developer to provide a £35 hollow brick for swifts, house martins, sparrows and starlings, which was tabled by Labour MP Barry Gardiner, has been rejected by the Labour-dominated committee.

Despite the Labour party having supported the swift brick amendment when it was tabled on Conservative government legislation in 2023, housing minister, Matthew Pennycook, told the House of Commons committee: “We are not convinced that legislating to mandate the use of specific wildlife features is the right approach, whether that is done through building regulations or a freestanding legal requirement.

A new petition calling for swift bricks to be made mandatory for new homes has rapidly reached 80,000 signatures in recent days, two years after activist Hannah Bourne-Taylor won a parliamentary debate to help the rapidly declining migratory birds after 109,896 voters signed a government petition.

Bourne-Taylor said there appeared to be “no logic” to the government’s opposition to swift bricks when they precisely meet its ambition of creating win-wins for the economy and nature.

“They are going to be building millions of bricks into walls. I don’t understand why there’s such a problem with a brick with a hole in it. It seems ludicrous,” she said. “Why say your new legislation is a win-win for new homes and the environment and exclude the only measure that is a true win-win?

“They are tone-deaf. This is such a tiny thing they could do, but it’s brewing such a distrust and sense of betrayal among the people who voted for them.”

[Guardian]

Such an easy way in which to help those birds and the environment generally, and now fake Labour has ruined it.

The Labour Party is now fake, evil, and deserving of being stamped into the ground.

As for that Pennycook bastard, he seems to be a typical Labour MP of 2025, a “beggar on horseback”, i.e. a careerist from a very modest background, determined to climb the greasy pole, with neither ideas nor ideals, and completely unprincipled.

By reason of the repression of free speech in this country, I cannot say what I might hope will happen to most System MPs.

Ironic. The System politicians and msm recently lined up to mention the possibility that Britain might have been invaded in 1940, yet pretended not to notice a real invasion that is happening right under their noses, and literally under the noses of the spectators of that Dunkirk tribute show.

As to why Britain was never actually under real threat of invasion in 1940, there were numerous reasons. First of all, Hitler wanted to rule much of the world in alliance with the British Empire; he did not want war with Britain; Britain, i.e. Neville Chamberlain’s Cabinet, declared war on Germany in 1939 and, after mid-1940, his successor, Churchill, was unwilling to consider an armistice.

Hitler was weighing what became the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. He did not wan t a two-front war.

Hitler allowed most of the British Army soldiers in the Dunkirk area to escape (my own maternal grandfather one of them). Hitler refused to allow the Luftwaffe and tank columns to destroy that army, the remnants of the British Expeditionary Force or BEF. German ground forces were halted outside Dunkirk by Hitler’s own order (Fuhrerbefehl).

Secondly, the Germans never had enough barge and ship capacity to ferry an army of sufficient size across the Channel.

Thirdly, the Luftwaffe could not guarantee air superiority; neither could the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine much defend any forces ferried across.

Reverting to today’s real invasion, it continues, day after day, and nothing of importance is being done to stop, or even slow, the flow.

If only Britain had been in loose alliance with the Reich. We would have been, today, the rulers of much of the world, and that world would have been a better and happier place by reason of it. The usual evil (((influence))) prevented it from happening. Instead, we sit on our small and beleaguered island, invaded daily by trash from all over the world, we are individually poorer with every passing day and, with every passing day, our society falls apart, more and more.

I wonder how long it will be before there is little that is worthwhile left. At the age of 68, I may not see the ultimate depths of the degradation of Britain, thank God, and I am doing what little I presently can, in my present situation, to avoid the catastrophe, but see around me a society running around like a headless chicken, scarcely aware that it is already, in effect, dead, or at least mortally wounded.

I may, by Grace of God, be able to do more. We shall see. That is a matter of Fate. If the existing society cannot be saved, it may be that seeds can be planted in the rotting corruption, seeds which may germinate at a later time in history.

I noted Myerson’s recent and defamatory attack on Dr. Rachel Clarke on the blog, yesterday, and mused on whether she could or, rather, will take a civil action in defamation against him, as well as reporting Myerson to the Bar Standards Board. The same must be true of this doctor, assuming that she is a medical doctor, as it seems she must be. Myerson is plainly saying that she will not treat Jew patients professionally.

Perhaps the two lady doctors will co-operate in both suing Myerson and reporting him to the Bar Standards Board.

Anonymous Jew-Zionist stalker attacks James Wilson, the victorious defendant in the libel case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased) and Cantor.

Myerson and other notorious Jew-Zionist pro-Israel fanatics testified for the defendants, but the trial judge gave no weight to (i.e. plainly disbelieved) what they said on oath; Myerson included.

Thank God Myerson was at least sacked as a recorder (p/t judge) last year. The sacking was presented as if a “resignation”, of course. He had already been given an official warning about his online trolling.

Police who are doing this should have their names, ranks, and numbers recorded.

As one might expect from scribbler Allison Pearson, she has missed at least one point. It is actually irrelevant whether someone’s views are considered “racist” (an almost-meaningless term).

My views now, and when I was wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred by reason of a conspiracy by two connected packs of Jews (“UK Lawyers for Israel” and the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) in 2016 ( 8 years after I ceased to practise at the Bar), are little if at all different from when I was in ordinary Bar practice in England (1992-1996 and 2002-2008), I being overseas most of the intervening time and for several years thereafter.

When I was in Bar practice before the courts and tribunals of England (mostly the County Courts and the High Court, though at first also in the magistrates’ courts, various tribunals and —occasionally— the Crown Courts), I had lay clients (and instructing solicitors) who were from many parts of the world, most living in the UK. Many species of blacks and browns, inter alia. I always did my best for all of them. That is or was the ethos of the Bar.

It is also irrelevant whether or not Lucy Connolly is or is not labelled as “racist” by this idiot or that. The fact is that her sentence was harsh, and the circumstances of her original plea and the facts of her case amount, overall, to a miscarriage of justice, notwithstanding her (frankly, mistaken) original guilty plea.

Lucy Connolly is quite evidently being used, politically, by the Starmer-stein regime, as something akin to the dead crows etc that gamekeepers used to impale on spikes as some kind of supposed warning-off to others. Katie Hopkins has vlogged to the same effect, and I had already blogged to that same effect.

The same thing happened to Tony Martin, the farmer who was at first convicted, quite wrongly, of having murdered a “gypsy” (Irish tinker/”traveller”) after a group of those predators and scavengers attacked Martin’s isolated farmhouse: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Martin_(farmer).

Even after his murder conviction was quashed, being replaced by a manslaughter conviction and a 5-year term (his 10-year sentence for shooting and wounding another nuisance in the same incident was also reduced, the 10 years being replaced by a —concurrent— 3-year term), Martin was refused early release, and served 3 years. The woke-idiot probation and parole swine were judging him for his views, at root.

Had I been Prime Minister, I should have made sure that Martin was never charged (and don’t think that that is not possible). Indeed, he should have been commended for his brave actions, and given money from public funds.

“Gypsy and Roma traveller pupils are to be referred to as ‘mobile children’ under new government guidance.

New pupil absence advice issued by the Department for Education uses the term to refer to students ‘of no fixed abode’ who miss school while their parents are ‘travelling during the course of their trade or business’.

The law allows children to be away from the classroom while their parents are travelling for occupational reasons.

Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal wanted to 1. make up a fake “antisemitic incident” for tribal political reasons, 2. have that publicized in the Daily Mail etc by dishonest Jewish scribbler Sabrina Miller (see earlier blogs), 3. make money out of it all via “compensation” payments (as they had done on previous occasions).

The Daily Mail should sack Sabrina Miller at once.

nb. I have blogged on previous days about the attempted scam and/or stunt.

Why? Simply because both main System parties are under the influence of the same or similar cabals, pursuing the same agenda overall.

Incidentally, this will mean that any non-European —African, Afghan, whatever— with some kind of ad hoc EU travel document will be able to enter the UK…

Autarky is possible for Russia; it is also possible for Europe as a whole. The UK can link to one or the other, or both.

Quite.

You’re doing this on purpose now aren’t you Pink effing lights!!! You think that’s what people want?! God you’re disgusting.

Shove your stupid fairy lights you utter pathetic lily livered traitors!!! Sort this country out and the massive amount of Islamist males and mentally deranged men from Africa who are committing horrific crimes on a daily basis which you continue to ship in every day for us to pay for whilst you take every penny we have!

You’re a disgrace ! The people are angry !!!! Angry at what globalist liberal socialist measures have done to this once great cohesive nation. !!! Everything is breaking Our safety Our cohesion Our national identity Our public services breaking under the weight of the population explosion Our countryside you’re ripping up to house everyone Our education under woke bastardisation Our children being told not to be white not to be masculine not to be patriotic Our energy security – following the insanity of netzero and buying oil and gas from overseas when we have our own! Our food security as you fight against farmers and build on arable land and cover more land in metal solar panels

And you gaslighting us telling us we have no money and need to rob pensioners and yet in the same breath giving £11bn to foreign aid And to then stand there yesterday and say the ” far right ” Were the problem. Despicable .

I can’t think of one thing that the far right have done . My kids don’t fear the far right . Mums don’t wake at night worrying about far right grooming their girls, running around with machetes , bombing places . No We know the problem . Interpol knows the problem It’s importing a massive burden of men from 3rd world areas with often Islamist backward archaic ideologies. THATs the problem

You have let in a Trojan horse army. And you will not blame the exhausted British public who’ve put up with so much terror . You will be a leader and fix the actual problem Not the frustrated reaction after two decades of daily reports of evil committed on our streets . The public have been extremely tolerant. Beyond tolerant. No nation in the Middle East or China or Russia would have out up with one day of attacks like the U.K. has endured. And we’ve had 20+ years.

Starmer-Labour is basically a bunch of traitors who have “marched through the institutions” (and professions) to create a pseudo-“elected” government now trying to lay down the structure of a multikulti and “woke” police state.

Elected“? Only 4 voters, out of every 20 eligible, voted Labour.

That refers, in fact, to one Joanna Jarjue, a black woman who is (for no good reason) apparently on TV discussion-nonsense programmes occasionally. I had never heard of her, so looked her up online.

Turns out that Joanna Jarjue’s main and possibly only claim to (“15 minutes of”) “fame” was that she took part in the appalling TV show (fronted by the Jewish business person Alan Sugar) The Apprentice, seven years ago, in 2017. Sugar “fired” her before the final part of the contest: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Apprentice_(British_TV_series)_series_13#Candidates.

I don’t waste time on TV shows such as The Apprentice, but the format is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Apprentice_(British_TV_series)#Format

Basically, seems that Joanna Jarjue has put together a background or CV that, in reality, does not add up to very much (in my opinion)[https://www.linkedin.com/in/joanna-jarjue-261ab78a/?originalSubdomain=uk].

Seems that every pointless “discussion-nonsense” show on “British” TV now needs to show how “diverse” it is by including a black person, whether it is that useless Nigerian “grifter” Femi Oluwole or some other, such as this Gambian woman, Joanna Jarjue (of whom I had never heard until 10 minutes ago, when I saw a tweet about her defending “trans” “women” boxers brutalizing real women boxers —of whom I also disapprove— on GB News).

I do not believe that women should be boxing anyway.

I make a distinction, though, between women boxing and women doing other “martial arts” such as judo or even taekwando (which latter I myself did for a few months in 1984). There, the contenders score points, but do not (in the sport versions) aim to batter each other to the ground. I admit that taekwando utilises aggression (my instructors were always shouting at me, or encouraging me, in such terms as “More aggression, Ian! More aggression!“) but in a different way to boxing (in my opinion).

I looked at the GB News video clip. The Jarjue woman obviously wants to hit the “right” buttons to get invited to make more (paid) TV appearances (cf. Ash Sarkar).

Ah, here she pops up again, again on GB News:

Thick as two short planks. Thinks that people are angry about the state of the country not for any substantive reason, but because of “social media”. Good grief…

Seems to be supporting the fake Labour attempt to destroy whatever free speech is still left in this country. What a surprise…

System scribbler Dan Hodges uses the lazy “far right” label (as meaningless as “right” or “left”).

What Hodges means is, it is OK to sit in a dark room worrying about the migration invasion, or about the connected slow collapse of our society, but not OK to do much more than wring your hands, or maybe tweet something (or blog something).

I was not alone in predicting a short or non-existent “honeymoon” period for Starmer-Labour. Others, though not many, echoed my view; Matt Goodwin for one (and he makes money out of his blogging…well, that’s life…).

There are many reasons for Starmer-Labour having no popularity among the British people (excepting —some— Labour Party members, and/or the grifting online professional “anti-Tory” know-nothings such as “@supertanskiii”).

First of all, Starmer and his crew have no ideas worth a plugged nickel. Look at the stupid decision to halt so many infrastructure projects recently. Infrastructure investment is the very foundation for later prosperity, though I agree for other reasons with the halt to the HS2 vanity-rail nonsense, and with the scrapping of the Stonehenge tunnel (the better idea there would be a bypass, built a mile or more away).

Rachel Reeves is someone without any ideas worth anything, and I think that Starmer is similar. As to Angela Rayner and Yvette Cooper, need the question even be put?

Secondly, money is being cut off from British people who need it, including pensioners.

Meanwhile, however, Starmer has agreed to waste THREE BILLION POUNDS A YEAR on “aid” to “Ukraine” (the Jewish regime in Kiev led by the corrupt tyrant and former sleazy comedian, Zelensky).

Starmer is also throwing money at the —actually not very useful— junior NHS doctors, who only have to endure modest pay for a few years anyway before getting to fairly high salary levels. At the same time, the planned NHS hospital building and rebuilding programme has been stopped, more or less.

That is even before you start to look at the Starmer-Labour plan to destroy what little free speech exists still in this country.

Starmer was mainly (I think) a prosecutor, certainly best known for having been Director of Public Prosecutions. Looking at him, I have always been reminded of what Chekhov said to Gorky after having met, en passant, a smug young prosecutor in pre-revolutionary Russia: “…and it is pimples on the backside of humanity, like that, who dispose of the fate of people!”…[Gorky, Literary Portraits, trs. Ivy Litvinov]: see https://archive.org/details/maxim-gorky-literary-portraits-flph-1950.

Chekhov also said that every prosecutor he had ever met liked to fish. Well, I have no idea whether Starmer does. Perhaps not, though he does eat fish: https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/uks-new-pm-keir-starmer-is-the-1st-jewish-pescatarian-to-ascend-the-position/articleshow/111558669.cms?from=mdr, the India Times incidentally having —apparently wrongly— identified Starmer as a Jew in that headline (his wife is the Jewish half of the couple). See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keir_Starmer#Personal_life.

The non-existent Starmer-Labour “honeymoon” period is, of course, also a function of the unpopularity of Labour at the pseudo-“landslide” General Election, Labour having (as I repeatedly point out, but the msm rarely do) only been voted for by 4 out of every 12 people who voted (and only 4 out of every 20 if you include the 40%+ of eligible voters who did not vote at all).

A bad combination: a government voted for by, at best, 34% of the adult population (but really only by about 20%), but pretending that it is wildly popular and has a “mandate” to pass repressive laws etc.

Here we go…sex-pest depressive “Lord Walney” (former Labour Party MP John Woodcock), a complete puppet of the Israel lobby, aka Jewish Zionist lobby (former Chair of Labour Friends of Israel), and a System drone who was ejected from the Commons by the voters, only to have been then “elevated” (in his case I cannot bring myself to write “ennobled“) to the pathetic House of Lords by a Conservative Party PM, “Boris” Johnson, himself a part-Jew and strong supporter of Israel, of course.

I assessed Woodcock a couple of times, but years ago: 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/.

Incidentally, looking at “Lord Walney” in that photo, he really has aged in the past few years. He looks drugged or something, as well.

Even leaving aside the civil rights and human rights implications of “Walney’s”/Woodcock’s suggestion, what an incredibly irresponsible and ridiculous thing to suggest, to “lock down” the UK again.

The “Covid” “lockdowns” were both dictatorial and unnecessary anyway, but the point here is the huge economic damage done by them in 2020-2021. Now Woodcock/”Walney” wants to “lock down” the country again, merely because a few cars have been overturned and a police station “up North” burnt out! I don’t recall him suggesting that when non-Brits (such as the Gypsies of Harehills, Leeds) were doing the same or worse only a week ago.

Just what the UK needs— more economic damage. What a prize careerist idiot John Woodcock/”Lord Walney” is.

Exactly the same as the way in which Roma and other Gypsies (who came to mainland Europe from India centuries ago) live in Romania, Bulgaria etc. Import foreign populations, and you also import their behavioural patterns.

In the 1970s, despite problems, despite some poverty-stricken areas, Britain still had many possibilities open to it. Not so now. The importation of tens of millions of backward people has painted this country into a corner. There are now few, if any, easy and peaceful ways forward.

That Bernal person, despite being a professor at a university, has rather poor thinking skills. For example, he used to tweet frequently about how “free speech does not mean freedom from the consequences of your free speech“. Under that definition, Stalin’s Soviet Union, Mao’s China, and Pol Pot’s Cambodia had “free speech”… In other words, Bernal, a part-Jew descended from the once-famous J.D. Bernal [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._D._Bernal], is a pretty silly person, to say the least.

Another socio-political idiot hiding behind a “professorship” (“professors” really are ten-a-penny these days in the UK).

In any case, he is wrong in his assumption: had the person charged and now arraigned been from a (real) British/English background, I am absolutely sure that the fact would have been proclaimed loudly all across the msm, and for years to come.

Starmer, and his mob of Islington lawyers, just don’t get it. His very political speech , surrounded by Union flags, deliberately misses the point. He doesn’t understand that away from his protected world, ordinary people associate the murder of innocent children with the arrival of illegal migrants. There is fear on the streets and he’s waffling on about online crackdowns or getting police forces to talk to each other. Neither will solve the problem. Stopping the boats will. The reality is I’m not sure he wants to.

Talking point

[Dave Brown/The Independent]

As the ordure hits the fan, the System (and its cartoonists etc, the cartoon above being from the now online-only Independent) are loudly shouting that the disorder just below the surface in the UK’s cities, and breaking surface fairly often, is not because of factors such as —and most importantly— the invasion of this country by tens of millions of blacks and browns (etc), but by the people appalled at what has happened, what is happening, and what is plainly going to happen not very far in the future.

The System mouthpieces blame, for that disorder, not the underlying causes, and certainly not the treacherous “political class” at Westminster (which deliberately contrived the migration-invasion), but Farage, Reform UK, “Tommy Robinson”, other and various nationalist or social-national Prominente, and even bloggers and truth-tellers such as me.

Incidentally, I was just looking at a few more examples of that cartoonist’s work; liked this one:

Day 8 of 56. Mark Lewis and Patron Law have not yet paid my costs. Lewis submitted evidence to the High Court in my case about the transfer of his client’s house.

It seemed unlikely the evidence was true, so – like the judge in Lewis’ Davidoff case – I checked.

The Land Registry info showed Lewis’ evidence was false and he made another statement apologising to the court.

That’s twice in a year that Lewis has provided untrue evidence to the High Court and it has only been picked up by careful online research.”

[James Wilson].

It seems to me that Lewis is going to find himself sued in professional negligence soon, if he has not already been. My prediction is that he will scuttle back to Israel screeching about “antisemitism” in the UK. He will (probably) be safe from legal action there (though that is, I admit, a guess on my part), and will leave the small Jewish law firm in West London, which is his foothold in the English jurisdiction, to pick up any bill. Another guess on my part, but I expect that to be the way things develop.

It would be rather unfair were Lewis to scream about “antisemitism”. After all, not only have “British” (albeit “occupied”) mass media outlets (Daily Mail etc) been puffing Lewis, quite inaccurately, and for years, as a supposed hot-shot lawyer, but when Lewis was found guilty before a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal in 2018 (just before he officially emigrated to Israel), his own Counsel begged the Tribunal not to fine Lewis heavily, because he lived in a rented apartment, and because his only assets were his [extremely vulgar] clothes, a private pension worth £70 a week, and a mobility scooter! Even his car was being provided to him free of charge by the “antisemitic” British taxpayers via the Motability scheme run for the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP).

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/31/farage-accused-of-inciting-southport-violence-by-former-counter-terror-chief

A former counter-terrorism police chief has accused Nigel Farage of helping incite violence that broke out in Southport after the killing of three children in a knife attack this week.

Farage drew criticism from across the political spectrum for remarks he made in a video on Tuesday in which he questioned “whether the truth is being withheld from us” after the attack on Monday.

Neil Basu – a former senior Scotland Yard officer who was in charge of counter-terrorism from 2018 to 2021 – said there were “real world consequences” when public figures failed to “keep their mouth shut”

[Guardian]

Well, there it is. Mixed-race ex-“anti-terror” cop Basu [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Basu] proclaims that people should not be allowed to speak on socio-politically contentious issue or events, but should “keep their mouths shut“. There speaks the true voice of “woke” System totalitarianism.

Why should British people “shut up” just because types like Basu disagree with what they are saying?

Even more egregious, Farage was merely asking pointed questions.

More egregious yet, Farage is actually an MP, and leader of both a bloc of MPs and a party for which 2 out of every 12 voters (who voted) voted at GE 2024 (Con 3 out of 12, Lab 4 out of 12).

If enemies of freedom like Basu demand that even elected MPs and party leaders “keep their mouths shut“, what little freedom would the bastards allow to “ordinary citizens”?

Incidentally, Basu has never been elected to anything, has no degree or equivalent (as far as I know), has never written a book or anything else of note (as far as I know), and even the police were glad when he took early retirement, it seems.

Where is Basu’s locus standi, really?

This is the way things are going in the UK.

A dispute over a 97-year-old woman feeding birds in her back garden has escalated with the ‘bullying’ council now threatening a £2,500 fine or even court action to force her and her son out of their privately-owned home.

Retired music teacher Anne Seago enjoys the simple pleasure of watching from her conservatory as sparrows and robins feed off seeds on her bird table.

A complaint from a neighbour that she was attracting pigeons and seagulls prompted the council to issue a ‘written warning’ last November and threaten a £100 fine if the ‘anti-social behaviour’ doesn’t cease.

Now, amid claims the birds are still being fed, Fylde Council has issued her son Alan, 77, who lives with her, with another written warning. This time he is being threatened with a Community Protection Notice (CPN) and a potential fine of £2,500 for ‘non-compliance’ if the ‘anti-social behaviour’ doesn’t stop immediately.

And in a further threat the council’s environmental health department has warned it could take legal action for a ‘Civil Injunction and/or a Premises Closure Order’, that if granted by magistrates could ultimately force them out of their house in Staining, near Blackpool, for up to three months.

The officers even instructed the Seagos to take down the ‘I love’ birds notice on their window (above) in case it upset the neighbour.

Poland’s Prime Minister, Donald Tusk said: ‘I don’t want to scare anyone, but war is no longer a concept from the past. It’s real and it started over two years ago. We are living in the most critical moment since the end of the Second World War‘.”

[Daily Mail]

Tusk is a brainless drone, a complete puppet of NWO/ZOG. A year ago, he was predicting that Ukraine (the Kiev regime) would “defeat Russia“, and then go on to join both NATO and the EU. How is that going?…

As for war with Russia, certain powerful groups or cabals in the West are really pushing for it; the drift to war is almost entirely being driven by those groups, not by Putin, not by Russia.

An almighty war would be disastrous for Europe and the European peoples. Maybe that is why the “usual suspects” and their puppets keep pushing for one…

Despite 2 years of false reporting by the UK/US msm, the truth is slowly dawning: Russia must and will win this war. Ukraine (the Kiev regime) is a fake state and a failed state, and is fast running out of arms, ammunition and, most of all, soldiers.

Another System-party clown…

People say that it does not matter what a person’s private life, sexuality, even beliefs etc may be. Only their specific ideas matter. Easy to agree with that, superficially, but it is facile in more ways than one.

Matthew Parris is typical, in a way, of the faux-“caring sharing” “Cameroon” fake “Conservatism” of the past few decades; post-Thatcherite, espousing a neo-Spartanism for the poorer part of society, and a freedom-from-responsibility ethos for the affluent and wealthy, all disguised by the said fake “caring”.

Often, though certainly not always, publicized in newspapers, and in magazines such as the Spectator, and often by affluent metropolitan gays such as Parris himself.

That kind of “Conservatism” is the polar opposite of the paternalism which characterized at least part of the old and now long-gone Conservatism.

Mrs Thatcher may now be thought of as the standard-bearer of the new pseudo-libertarian “Conservatism”, but she herself, in office, was more a product of the old order, and vacillated between the two camps, for all her expressed adherence to Hayek etc.

The tweeter cited above is right. Parris is shown, not for the first time, as someone who basically knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. His notorious column about “left-behind” areas, such as Clacton, set the tone.

Not that I disagree with all that Parris has written, such as when his column opined thus: “In May 2021, Parris called for the removal of ethnic minority status from Gypsy, Roma and Travellers, describing them “not a race, but a doomed mindset” and called for “a gradual but relentless squeeze on anyone who tries without permission to park their home on public property or the property of others” [Wikipedia].

I agree with those words, though the Irish “travellers” are not the same actual group as the various kinds of ethnic “gypsies” in the UK and mainland Europe (etc). “Travellers” of Irish origin are not an ethnic minority; the Roma, Sinta etc are.

I also agree with his view of sinister clown “Boris” Johnson: “In June 2020 Parris wrote an excoriating article on Boris Johnson saying, “He never had any judgment or strategic vision. Mr Johnson was only ever a shallow opportunist with a minor talent to amuse” [Wikipedia].

What I find disturbing about, not only Parris but also that whole strain of post-Thatcherite “Conservatism”, discounting its pseudo-“caring” camouflage, is its un-Christian, un-spiritual “throwing under a bus” of those (the old, sick, and poor) who cannot keep pace with his preferred metro-affluent new order. It reminds me, more than anything, of Stalinism, in terms of its arrogant brutality. There is something dystopian about it all. Parris himself is an atheist.

This is the ‘racially aggravated’ banner they are trying to lock me away for, potentially for up to 7 years for holding it up outside RAF SCAMPTON The officer in charge has rebailed us while we await a CPS decision listen to her she HASN’T got a clue EVERY FACE on that banner came here as a refugee and went on to commit the most serious sexual offences against women and children You may try lock me up but you will NEVER STOP ME telling the public REFUGEE’S ARE RAPING HERE.”

Historical facts not much noted by the general public include the largely Jewish character of the second, Marxist-Leninist, “Russian” Revolution (coup d’etat) of 1917, the largely Jewish nature of the Soviet security apparat from 1917 through to the late 1940s, but also the pushback against that in the Soviet Union itself, starting in the Second World War but particularly from time of the postwar purge of 1948-49 and on to 1953-1956, after the death of Stalin.

The failure of Europe to keep pace with America has taken its toll on living standards. The average EU country is now poorer per head than every state in America bar Idaho and Mississippi.

The latter, the poorest state in the Union, is often referred to as America’s Third World but — with an average per capita annual income of $50,000 — the citizens of Mississippi are better off than their counterparts in France.”

[Daily Mail]

While I am no fan of the EU, the above is a typical example of how journalists twist the facts. Yes, per capita, France is “poorer” than Mississippi, but that is merely a headline figure.

In France, citizens get free and, until recently, quite good education, not only free at primary and secondary level, but also at tertiary level— universities, les grand ecoles, institutes etc. In Mississippi, higher education has to be paid for, either in cash or via student loans.

In France, medical and dental care of high quality is available via a hybrid State insurance system with a safety net for the unemployed, elderly etc. Hospital wards were done away with 40+ years ago. In Mississippi, there are areas without much healthcare at all and, despite Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare etc, health insurance is almost essential, if you or your employer can afford it.

Then there is the finance-capitalist system generally, and how it results in inequality of capital and income. In France, despite inequalities, there are relatively few people in grinding poverty; not so in Mississippi, where the top few percent take most of the money.

https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/23686626.residents-gobsmacked-horse-carts-race-bournemouth/

Residents ‘gobsmacked’ as horse and carts race through Bournemouth.

Footage sent to the Echo shows youths sat on the back of a cart attached to horses in the Lower Gardens, underneath the flyover at Pier Approach. 

Concerned residents feared there could have been injuries or even a fatality if the horses had hit somebody, so phoned the police.

One resident, who asked to remain unnamed, was walking around the town when he came across the bizarre sight on Saturday, July 22.

I was just concerned because had there been a little child, or pet, or mother with a pram came running down, the horse would have gone into them and there could have been a fatality.’

The man said it was the first time he had seen anything similar in more than 30 years of living in Bournemouth.

However, he didn’t want people to have negative attitudes towards travellers.

[Bournemouth Echo].

Isn’t that so typical of England in 2023? Nuisances, in this case “travellers” (Irish “tinker” “gypsies”), make life difficult and less pleasant (and potentially dangerous) for normal citizens, but nothing is done about them, the police do nothing, and even the concerned citizen who reported them felt obliged to say that no-one should have “negative attitudes” towards the nuisance group.

The System propaganda, endlessly pumped out by most msm outlets, by schools, by the churches (what’s left of them), and by MPs (especially Labour ones) has seeped into the thinking of many many people.

When I started this blog, nearly 7 years ago, I thought that the UK could be saved; now, I feel less sure every day.

HS2 was a wrongheaded concept anyway. The high-speed train idea is OK in much larger countries such as France or China, or very elongated countries, such as Japan. Chile would be ideal. Not in the UK, unless the train were to go London to Scotland, or maybe to Penzance; the present plan is London to Manchester via Birmingham.

The Eastern route (to Leeds) has gone. There never was a Cornish route, and anyway the existing rail line would not be strong enough to take such trains beyond Exeter.

The HS2 project should have been scrapped a decade ago, and the money spent on providing more services and more branch lines in the North.

As it is, the project will be delivered in the 2030s (maybe), at ruinous expense, at ruinous environmental cost. Already the construction has scarred the landscape, destroyed ancient woodland etc.

[HS2 ground preparation scars the landscape near Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, in 2021]

All so that a train currently taking 1 hr 22mins to Birmingham will take 52 mins in the future, a saving of 30 mins. Oddly, the reduction in (fastest) travel time to Manchester will be less— 1 hr 40 mins instead of 1 hr 54 mins, a saving of only 14 minutes.

It is just not worth the money and the environmental damage.

“Lionesses”

Speaking of System propaganda…

The public are currently subjected to endless propaganda for the LGBTQXYZ agenda, masquerading as “sports news”.

I switched on BBC TV News recently, for the first time in a while, only to find that most of the broadcast was taken up with a report about some women’s football game in Denmark.

Women’s football is being heavily pushed by the “usual suspects”. No-one had even heard of women’s football a few years ago, not as a mass spectator sport. It now turns out that many of the women footballers are lesbians.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-12350321/These-female-footballers-lighting-World-Cup-superb-skills-field-love-lives-adding-drama.html.

I myself am, in any case, not a sports fan, but the propaganda is just so blatant. Is that why most people do not notice it? It hides in plain sight.

This sort of nonsense is, like all the “anti-racism” stuff, and the “blacks with everything” agenda, part of a larger conspiratorial picture: see, e.g., https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/12/10/tv-ads-and-soaps-are-the-propaganda-preferred-by-the-system-in-the-uk/.

Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke was born on 2 January 1980 in Wimbledon, London.[7]Badenoch spent parts of her childhood living in Lagos, Nigeria and in the United States…She returned to the UK at the age of 16 to live with a friend of her mother’s owing to the deteriorating political and economic situation in Nigeria which had affected her family.”

Either Israel will eventually be hit by nuclear missiles from Iran or elsewhere, or it will fall apart internally, and then be subject to an uprising by the ~7,500,000 Palestinian Arabs who live at present corralled in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank areas, and inside the boundaries of Israel itself. The Arabs, as a population, number about the same, or only slightly fewer, than the Jews living in Israel.

If he were not so evidently mendacious and evil, Zelensky could simply be called an idiot. Imagine claiming to want a “peace plan” without the participation of the main player!

Dangerous territory both metaphorically and literally. If PMC Wagner were to attack Poland, that would presumably be taken to be an incident triggering Article 5 of the NATO Treaty (because presumably an action ordered by the Russian Government). Likewise, were Polish forces to attack official Russian or Belarusian forces, or to enter Ukrainian territory, there might be direct conflict between Polish and Russian forces, also probably triggering Article 5.

Sensible heads must rethink this conflict, and especially the increasingly frenetic NATO aid to the Kiev regime, before all Europe goes up in flames.

Diary Blog, 23 February 2023, with thoughts around “open borders”, mass immigration, migration-invasion, and the Welfare State

Morning music

On this day a year ago

Talking points

The quotation directly above expresses a fact which many prefer to ignore. Note— not “disagree with”, but ignore. They do not want the truth, but comforting (?) lies.

The UK is almost open-borders now. The “British” Government (packed with Jews, Indians, you name it) has basically given up the struggle to defend our borders. In that circumstance, how long can even the semblance of a “Welfare State” be maintained?

What seems to have been happening in Britain is that the outward forms have been and are being maintained but, at the same time, the content has been, and is being, hollowed out.

Not just Welfare State services such as State benefit levels, but allied aspects of society: the NHS is one. The NHS still exists, but underfunding and mass immigration is testing it to the limit. NHS dentistry is disappearing, in fact has almost disappeared. The GP service is now a skeleton of what it was only a few years ago.

Of course, “Covid”, or “the Covid crisis”, or “the pandemic” is a very useful excuse as to why standards cannot be maintained. You (apparently, supposedly) cannot see a GP or a dentist “because of” the “panicdemic” of 2020-2021.

That has become the contemporary version of the 1940s British excuse for non-availability of goods and services, as when, in the film of The Cruel Sea, senior Royal Navy Reserve officer Jack Hawkins calls over a steward at (?) the Trocadero in London to complain about dust in the decanter of water on his table, only to be told “I’m very sorry, Sir, it’s the war, you know…“, to which Hawkins replies, wryly, “well, in that case, I should not want to make too much of it” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cruel_Sea_(1953_film)].

The same has been the case in very many areas of British life. When I was reading for the Bar in 1987, there was discussion about whether wigs and gowns would still be worn by barristers in the future. A wise old barrister replied that “they will get rid of everything else before they get rid of wigs in court“.

That turned out to be right. The Bar has changed radically since the 1980s, in a few respects for the better but in most respects for the worse, but those wigs are still there, at least in the Crown Court (though now more rare in civil cases, in both the High Court and in the County Court).

Look at the armed forces. The outward forms are still there, but the few remaining ships are merely like stumps sticking out of drought-hit fields. A couple of aircraft carriers without planes (!), and the officers and crews of warships (as seen on “reality TV”) seem pretty poor quality, at least from what is shown.

In fact, so useless are our armed forces now that “Boris” idiot recently suggested giving our remaining planes and tanks to the Jew Zelensky in Kiev, because the UK has no use for them! Johnson was derided, of course, but actually (while I would not want to support the Kiev regime) Johnson had a point.

The Navy now does little but ferry migrant invaders to the UK (!) and interdict drug smugglers (the only way to really stop the drug problem, though, is to hit the consumers in the UK, and hit them really hard).

Why do we even bother having a navy in those circumstances?

As to the Army’s tanks, they seem to be of no use at all here, and are only used for exercises and for occasional foreign misadventures such as Iraq, and that was decades ago.

The Royal Air Force? Most of its bases have been closed down, and most of the rest are really semi-disguised USAF bases.

Is there, likewise, much reality in the Monarchy? I think not. Not only The Harry Formerly Known as Prince, and Meghan Mulatta. Not only Prince Andrew, that useless and unpleasant freeloader. Not only the rest of them, but also their actual role. What are they for, really? Does their existence as “royals” really serve any purpose now?

The migration-invasion, and the general mass immigration into the UK, has ripped the stuffing out of this country. The original 1950s to 1970s immigration from former colonies turned Commonwealth countries was bad enough, but in the past ~40 years, and especially since about 1989, there has been a flood even from countries which which the UK has historically had few if any ties. That increased during and after Blair’s evil regime, i.e. post-1997.

The old idea was that immigrants, even non-whites, would just blend in with British people and their way of life. That was only a half-truth even half a century or more ago. Now, it is just not so; the numbers have become too great. Britain may be majority non-white as early as 2050, and even many of the European people here now are not British in any real sense; many are the rejected dross from the poorer parts on the continent.

It makes me laugh when I read in newspapers about how the UK is being “defended” by the armed forces, and by the security and intelligence bureaucrats. What are they now “defending”? Not the British people or their way of life, that’s for sure. That is being destroyed from within. Mass immigration. Births to non-whites. Corruption at Westminster. Cultural trash on TV , radio and elsewhere. Cheap hee-hawing by Jew comedians and others. All of that.

I tremble to think of what Britain might look like by 2050, let alone 2100, if we cannot reverse the process, or take the country in a new direction. I myself (b. 1956) will not be on Earth by then, but it may be that, before then, Fate will enable me to join with the best of my fellow Brits to change the mood music in the next 20 years. We shall see.

That graphic leaves out the Labour result in 2019— only 32.1%…

Of course, the popular vote share, the numbers of seats won or lost, and the end result, are two or three different things in the UK system.

At present, Labour is hugely ahead in the opinion polls.

I was of the view that Labour’s open door immigration policy (the real policy, not the “horseshit” fed to the public via the msm) would put voters off from voting Labour-label, but the “Conservatives”, under Indian money-juggler Sunak, are plainly bent on importing more millions, and have done nothing at all even to slightly reduce mass immigration, including the cross-Channel migration-invasion, so many people will just want to punish the Con Party even if knowing in their hearts that Labour will be no better in most respects— and worse in some.

Incidentally, that YouGov poll, if reflective of actual voting at the next general election, would give Labour the biggest Commons majority in history— a Commons majority of 430 [Labour 540, Con 20, LibDem 19, SNP 47, others 24 (inc. Northern Irish seats)].

That really would be “elected dictatorship”, especially with tyrannical Yvette Cooper and Rachel Reeves in Cabinet. See https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

That is what at any rate used to be the Consulate, the Embassy itself being nearby.

I remember standing in a long, slow line outside one of the gates in early 1993, the first time I needed a Russian visa.

In fact I had already been there once, in the 1980s, when I queued on behalf of my then girlfriend’s mother, who apart from being too aged to wait in line for hours, always seemed to have trouble there because she was born in pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg in or about 1908, and had insisted that her British passport reflect that and not (as per the silly Passport Office rule) Leningrad (the Passport Office staff always prefer to change places of birth to the latest name of the location, so “Tanganyika” is changed to “Tanzania” even if the latter was not in existence at the date of birth).

Of course, that 1980s visa for the old lady mentioned was a Soviet one, not a Russian one as such..

Incidentally, the fall of socialism in and after 1989, and the official end of the Soviet Union in 1991, brought a change in the way that the consulate treated its visitors. In the 1980s, an unwelcoming ambience and the strange little holes in the glass screen above the reception desk, as at old railway stations, the holes too low to speak through without stooping (they are —or used to be— everywhere in Russia, even at the Kremlin ticket office); in 1993, a new reception desk and no screen with little holes (in fact no screen at all, I seem to remember), and girls who actually smiled and were pleasant, unlike the sullen factotums of yesteryear.

The last two times I needed a Russian visa, in 1996 and 2007, I did not need to queue or to go there; commercial organizations will do it for you, at a price. I ended up going to Moscow again in 2007, but not in 1996, that visit having been called off at short notice, the very day before I was due to travel.

My own assessment, from 3-4 years ago, of Therese Coffey:

People of Britain: you know who your enemies are, and they are not the Russian people, not Putin, and not the so-called “far right” (social nationalists, who are fighting your fight)…

As far as ordinary System politics is concerned, the best result of any general election now is that the misnamed Conservative Party be simply wiped out, even at the cost of a Labour Party “elected dictatorship”. Once one half of the binary political scam has gone, sooner or later the whole rotten system will fall.

Meanwhile, the British people face high prices and shortages. Online repression means that I cannot suggest how to punish the freeloaders…

Actually, a friend of mine used to lunch quite often at the House of Lords in the 1980s and 1990s. Similar prices, or even cheaper, adjusted for inflation. Smoked salmon for pennies, main courses a couple of pounds.

Main square of local town. Stake. Blindfold. Firing squad.

In a better world…

In fact the tweet is mistaken, and the local newspaper report misleading. One untermensch was imprisoned for 12 years, the other for 10, meaning that, in fact, they will be out in 6 and 5 years respectively.

Odd though. How was the woman “lured” to the locus of the attack, a flat? Are we getting the full story here? I think not.

A little judicious “racism” might save many women and girls in the UK. Fact.

Even leaving aside the crime(s), what use are untermenschen of that type to the UK? They are nothing but a millstone round the collective neck. Useless humanoids. Get rid of them.

As said in relation to other matters, people know in their hearts what will eventually have to happen.

Is that (the £8.4M) true? If so, how?

Liz Truss graduated from university in 1996. After that, she worked for Shell for not more than 4 years, until 2000. Her position was just a low-grade graduate-entry one, during which employment she also qualified as a management accountant; she left in 2000 to join Cable and Wireless, and was there for 4-5 years, but although she did eventually get appointed Economic Director, she was only at that level for a year or two at most.

Liz Truss was also Deputy Director of the Reform think-tank for a year or so (2008/2009).

After having won a House of Commons seat in 2010, Liz Truss was a backbench MP for 2 years, and gained minor preferment 2012-2014, joining Cabinet in 2016. She was, therefore, a Cabinet minister for 6 years until she became Prime Minister in 2022 for the notoriously and historically-short period of 44 disastrous days.

So from where does the £8.4M come? Surely not from her family, who though not poor were employed persons (father an academic, mother a schoolteacher); I have not heard tell of any considerable family money.

As for Truss’s long-suffering husband, he is a chartered accountant, so again, while not poor, scarcely living in great opulence amid heavy wealth.

Liz Truss cannot have begun to make more than a modest salary until about 2004, had 2-3 years out of employment (she has two children, and also took time out for reasons of political careerism etc) until 2008, and she ceased to be employed (prior to becoming an MP) in 2009 or early 2010. In other words, she probably only had ~4 years of relatively high earning.

A Cabinet minister and MP is paid a total of around £160,000 (plus expenses), but the £160K is taxed, and she was only earning that for 6 years.

The mystery or puzzle remains: if Liz Truss really does have assets of £8.4M (even if you include those of her husband) from where did the money come?

See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liz_Truss#Professional_career.

Ha ha! Look at the “selection process” for MPs. They are often selected either because they know the right people and/or went to school with them, or worked with them previously in some way; or they are selected because they have paper “qualifications” which look good but in reality are not worth a hill of beans.

For example, “Oxford degree” (which these days is scarcely worth squat, and 94% of them are now either “Firsts” or “upper seconds”).

Many MPs (refer to, e.g., my “Deadhead MPs” series on the blog) also more or less invent a fake CV— fake or embellished academics, non-existent private business “successes” (e.g. companies that were set up, but which actually made no money), worthless business or other qualifications and/or “letters after the name”, such as meaningless “doctorates”, or a couple of years at the bottom level of the Bar, or even membership of bodies such as the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA), etc.

All of the above, plus an air of confidence, easily impresses provincial selection committees.

Even those MPs exposed (later, after having been selected and then “elected”) usually manage to shrug off their dishonesty. Look at Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, an egregious example. Invented or hugely embellished his education (rock-bottom poor at secondary level, and then made up a fake degree from an Italian university he never actually attended; also turned a corporate in-house course lasting 2 weeks into a “management diploma”). Then his embellishment of a very underwhelming military career. And so on.

The fact is that Liz Truss is only one of very many MPs who are, in reality, mediocre or worse, and have been right from the start.

The world is not without kind people” [Russian proverb].

I certainly agree with that. This ghastly mess should never have happened as it has developed. The Russian High Command and GRU should have eliminated the Jew Zelensky —and his corrupt and dictatorial coterie— before (just before) launching an all-out and swift advance, including mass paratroop landings, on Kiev. One single and massive knockout blow for the sake of mercy, to save the civilian population from attack and misery, and to achieve the main objective before the NWO/ZOG support from USA etc could be mobilized.

As for “her lawyer“, well that is or was the egregious Mark Lewis, now resident in Israel: see, e.g. https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/11/update-re-mark-lewis-lawyer-questions-are-raised/.

The case in which Mark Lewis acted for “Jack Monroe”, as her solicitor (I believe that he instructed both leading and junior Counsel who appeared in court as her advocates) was a not-very-difficult defamation action against social commentator Katie Hopkins: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monroe_v_Hopkins.

Ms. Hopkins had to sell her house to cover not the award made (only £24,000) but the c.£300,000 legal costs, being mainly those of the claimant (“plaintiff“, as was): see https://www.devonlive.com/news/property/katie-hopkins-luxury-devon-home-1526502.

I am not sure that I believe that “Bootstrap Cook” now has a lawyer, as such, but we shall see. She threatened to sue MP Lee Anderson [Con, Ashfield], and Martin Daubney, “alt-right” (?) political commentator, but that was in mid-May this year, seven months ago. In theory, “Jack Monroe” has time, until early to mid-May 2023, in which to issue proceedings, but the courts may not take kindly to issuance which is only just in time, and so far no preliminary correspondence has been received (I read), so it is unlikely that any action will now take place.

How did I do? Better than both teams put together, to be immodestly frank.
