Memory Lane

I happened to see that someone with whom I was slightly acquainted at school in the early 1970s died a couple of years ago. Not someone I really knew, or knew well, because he, Matthew Perry by name, was in the “B” or “C” stream of my year, whereas I was in the “A” stream.

In fact, I really only became acquainted with Perry —and he was never a friend as such; I never visited his home or went anywhere with him— because, if I remember aright, we were both in the Bridge Club. An amusing fellow, with several stories to tell, often about (horse-) racing or gambling generally. The sort of person one might, in an older person, call “clubbable”.

I noticed from the piece I saw (from the online mag of my old school —incidentally, I should never have recognized him from the appended photo, perhaps taken in an unwell later year) that, after his school years were over, he had done well in pharmaceuticals, but had also flown aid to Africa (Uganda, I think it said).

Quite a few people of the same or similar age to myself, and whom I knew as a small child, older child, or generally in youth, are now no longer on this Earth. In fact, the same goes for several people I knew in later life. A reminder that we have to do what we can, accomplish our mission (of whatever kind) while still here.

Kyle is “questionable” in several different ways: see

There is a distinction to be made between housing migrant-invaders in old military or naval bases prior to swift deportation, and housing them there (especially with few restrictions on their movements) on an open-ended or indefinite basis.

Many Jews are actively helping the migration-invasion of this country. Look at Simon Myerson, the unpleasant barrister abusive on social media. He, with a few minions, set up a “charity” expressly designed to bring more Afghans to this country.

Incidentally…

[“A major investigation into Afghans imported into the UK by our politicians finds:

many “under threat” went back to Afghanistan for holiday

many faked claims of Taliban threat & staged torture videos

many already had asylum in other safe countries

some only worked with British forces for “one or two days”

many pushing for large families to come into UK including second wives“]

Send them back.

The Hamas political leadership in Gaza launched a noisy gambit on the chessboard nearly two years ago. Had I been in their position, I should have played that deadly game differently, in a far more oblique way…quietly extending a very very deep tunnel system under Israel, perhaps digging for years, until that network extended as far as Central Israel, then branching out.

“Measure seven times, then cut” [Russian proverb].

Some good news.

That made me smile. Based, of course, on the famous or infamous photos showing Stalin with Molotov, Voroshilov, and Yezhov. After Yezhov had been dismissed (and shot), the photo was doctored, as shown below:

“Just like that!”, in the words of Tommy Cooper.

“What would they do if they held a (socialist) party, and no-one came?”…

Political splits happen in almost all parties, and Marxist-oriented parties are notoriously prone to them, but I do not think that I have heard of a party of any kind splitting into two —or is it three?— factions before the party has even been officially formed! Comedy gold…

Taking the news as an accurate picture of what happened, this seems to be a counter-productive move by Russia. Putin needs to get the Western public opinion on his side, or at least neutral.

…and what is to stop the few actually being sent back to France from then returning to the UK on another rubber boat? Nothing, albeit that their fingerprints etc will be on file.

Very much also the truth in the UK (indeed, even more than in the USA). My own experiences over the past decade, and previously, have confirmed and re-confirmed that.

[“Claire Hazelgrove – Labour MP for Filton and Bradley Stoke. Claire is one of the young and upcoming stars of The Labour Party. She became an MP at the 2024 election. Clearly being one who was highly thought of, Claire received a whopping £58,000 to help her get elected. £33,700 of this was from the unions @unitetheunion @GMB_union @unisontheunion and @UsdawUnion. Claire also received £15,000 from Israel lobbyist Gary Lubner. Mr Lubner also donated this same amount to 75 other Labour candidates to help with their election campaigns. Claire also received £10,000 from Lord Sainsbury’s daughter Fran Perrin. With these generous donations on on top of her £93,904 salary and expenses, Claire is doing very well for herself financially at Westminister. Yesterday, Claire voted for the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill that will result in sick and disabled people facing further hardship in their lives. @UKLabour #WelfareReformBill @CHazelgroveMP.”]

Isn’t “democracy” wonderful? The people of Filton (Bristol) kicked out the former MP, Jack Lopresti (Conservative Friends of Israel), a thick one-time Italian ice-cream salesman, only to be saddled with “young and aspiring” Claire Hazelgrove (Labour Friends of Israel).

At 36 (37 next week), Claire Hazelgrove may be young-ish, but not, as far as I can see, very idealistic, and she obviously aspires to get as much money for herself as she can, though she has pledged not to take outside work (if offered, which is unlikely).

As to her “career” to date, nothing appears. Born in 1988, she read politics at the University of York, did a post-grad year at Bath, after which she seems to have done not very much. Her academic time must have ended in or about 2013. Then there appears to be a gap for about a decade until the General Election of 2024.

Claire Hazelgrove was the unsuccessful (third-placed) Labour candidate at Ripon in 2010, aged just 20. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skipton_and_Ripon_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2010s.

Even Claire Hazelgrove’s own website makes no mention at all of her having ever had any kind of job or work except vague “campaigning”: https://clairehazelgrove.co.uk/about/. She is described (by herself), rather ludicrously and self-importantly, as “an experienced campaigner and changemaker“.

Conclusion: a typical “Labour”-label careerist drone, whose constituency profile makes it unlikely (though not impossible) that she will still be an MP after 2008 or 2029. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filton_and_Bradley_Stoke_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2010s.

Incidentally, the former MP, Lopresti, has apparently not returned to the family Italian ice-cream business, but is now sitting (I think with some spurious military rank) at a desk in Kiev, where he assists the Zelensky regime with this and that: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvg4jxw0zr7o.

Meaning Starmer-stein, Macron, and idiotic Merz, I suppose.

The taxpayers of the EU and UK are now going to be paying out yet again, while their own societies crumble.

More Israeli war crimes.

Well, the “Israelis” or Israeli Jews, really have come full circle, from posing as world “victims” for at least 80 years (and also for hundreds of years prior to the foundation of the Israeli state) to attacking mothers and children with bombs, flamethrowers and tank fire, to shooting children lining up for food (laid out as bait) while, at same time, cutting off food, water, and medicines from Gaza.

Finally, “deportation” of the Gazan population to areas where the Israeli Jews are setting up concentration camps. They, the Israeli Jews themselves, call those areas concentration camps (in unguarded moments).

Gaza then to be repopulated by Zionist Jew fanatics from “Israel” or the slum areas of Brooklyn etc.

The problem here, the source of the problem, lies not only in Israel but in the USA, London, Paris etc.

Stray thought on a hot day

In such a hot season as we now have in southern England, there is always, and now is, a plague of some kind of flying ants. I dislike killing anything (even “weeds”, noxious insects etc), but there are times when one just has to steel oneself, get the insecticide, and try to eliminate the nests of the flying ants, while also directly crushing stray insects that pop up.

I can smell the “diversity” from here… either the two blacks are “boat people” or (more likely) are just part of the “multicultural” “diversity” rabble which has overrun London, among other cities, for decades.

The miscreants know that the store employees are told not to use force, they know that the shoppers nearby will not try to stop them, either because they don’t want to be seen as “racist” or because they don’t care about the multi-hundred million profits of Waitrose and the like being impacted (in fact I have some sympathy with the latter point of view).

The untermenschen in question are unafraid of the police, firstly because it is quite unlikely that the police will even turn up; also, because if the police actually do turn up, there is every chance that the police people will be young women frightened of them and who, if then assaulted, will wail and cry like little girls (as recently seen in other cases) and be utterly useless.

Finally, of course, the “perps” know that, if actually arrested, they will almost certainly get bail pending any trial and/or sentence and, if actually sentenced to imprisonment (unlikely), will get a sentence measured in weeks, will only serve 40% or, soon, perhaps 20% of the headline time, and so will soon be back “at it” within weeks or even days. Even a 10-week sentence is now really 4 weeks, and may soon be 2 weeks. If that…

I was just looking at a local newspaper report. Someone (with 145 “previous”!) was sentenced to 10 weeks for similar crimes. Point proven. The prisons are full for several reasons, but anyway mostly full of blacks and browns, rather than real British people. Not entirely, but mostly, looking at proportions etc.

Both are a problem. I myself would certainly not wear my Rolex Seadwellers, if I still had any of them (sold long ago to fund survival in a finance-capitalist society, sadly), and if I still lived in London.

Obviously, the replacement of real Brits by blacks, browns, and others, is a tragic disaster, whereas the crime problem is “only” 95% connected to the migration invasion and “diversity”.

My solution, whether it be termed “final” or not:

Jew, of course: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Hermer,_Baron_Hermer#Early_life,_family_and_education

[“So the guy who once compared his political opponents to Nazis has now quietly handed himself an “effective veto” over govt policy… Meaning he’s arguably undermining the will of democratically-elected ministers in favour of his own legal interpretations. This is Lord Hermer, our Attorney General. He also personally signed off on seemingly unprecedented charges against X/Facebook users under the Public Order Act 1986—said to have “intended to stir up racial hatred”. By result, some of those online commentators were handed a harsher sentence than a convicted rapist. And he also happens to share ties to a vicious political pressure group, Hope Not Hate, known for issuing book ban lists and working to deplatform those they disagree with. Couldn’t make this stuff up…“]

Terrible, but young ladies like that should simply not be front-line police. The public deserve firm but fair police who can do the job properly, not young ladies in uniform who, on being attacked, cry and wail like upset little girls, and then themselves need protection .

Jews, and so Jew-Zionist influence, exist in all Western states, to a greater or lesser extent.

When the UK has a real social-national government, and not until then.

In some countries, at some times, it would have been shot on sight.

A rare voice of sanity.

Madness. The governments of the EU states and UK do not care at all about the welfare of their own citizens.

Ha ha! Jews are quite funny (without meaning to be) a lot of the time. It’s always “all about them”, in any and all circumstances. For example, Israeli Jews destroying every single hospital in Gaza is simply war damage, and really the fault of those being bombed, but if a hospital in Israel as much as has its windows broken, it’s some kind of evil “holocaust” (and so on…).

A few hundred cowardly Jews with dual nationality leaving their own (supposed) beloved country because they wish to avoid all risk is apparently the same as the 1940 Dunkirk evacuation of the British Expeditionary Force (my own maternal grandfather having been one of those taken off the beaches then) facing possible annihilation; and with the 1940-41 London Blitz thrown in as well! No wonder so many Jews are comedians…

Having said that, I believe that the lady tweeter is herself at least partly Jewish, but not (not completely, anyway) pro-Israel.

There used to be a saying, something about (I forget which creatures) leaving the sinking ship…

Oh, dear…what a pity… and only yesterday or the day before, I read that the shares on that stock exchange were rising fast, after Israel’s sneak attack on Iran. Life is so unexpected…

…and once the Israelis run out of ground-to-air missiles, Tel Aviv and other target areas will be almost undefended, and will be ground down (as Gaza has been), assuming that the Iranian missile barrages continue. According to the US/UK msm, that might be as early as one week from now.

So much for “Tel Aviv, the high-tech city with the booming economy“…It might soon be little more than a hole in the ground.

The Israelis hide weapons in hospitals, it seems, just as (they claim) Hamas did in Gaza.

“They” are a force for destruction, wherever they are.

Ecce the supposed “free democratic country” we hear so much about from our (UK, US etc) System politicians and msm…

So much for Israel being a “free and democratic” society…

(((Hermer))).

People are always saying how wonderfully talented Fry is. I cannot see it, for all his fame, acting career etc. In Jeeves and Wooster, that wonderful adaptation of P.G. Wodehouse, Fry was admittedly very good as Jeeves, but Hugh Laurie was the star, really. In Gosford Park, Fry’s police inspector ruined, in my view, the atmosphere, by importing a kind of cheap comedy into the film. As for his film about Oscar Wilde, it was nowhere as good (or as historically accurate) as the 1960 film starring Peter Finch, The Trials of Oscar Wilde. Fry’s version (if I recall it aright— I have seen it, though long ago) almost completely expunged Wilde’s heterosexual side [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Wilde#London_life_and_marriage], and said little about Wilde’s life or views outside of Wilde’s obsession with Lord Alfred Douglas and various disreputable youths.

I knew a barrister who met Fry at a wedding, and said that he, the barrister, had been quite shocked at how “left-wing” (a term I myself rarely if ever use) Fry was. Said barrister was himself Labour, though of the John Smith “centrist” (?) tendency. Where Fry’s true sympathies lie is disputed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Fry. I am unsure whether he really has what might be called an ideology. He is, of course, half-Jewish.

Iran’s most deadly missiles may not be capable of interception.

It may be (speculating wildly, so be it) that the Iranians, often though not always noted for their subtlety, have been using their “pawns” (drones and slower missiles) as sacrificial pawns (as in chess), with the idea of exhausting the Israeli supply of ground-to-air defensive missiles. Then, when the Israelis run out of countermeasures such as Iron Dome and Arrow missiles, the Iranians will launch the real stuff…

That occurs to me as I recall the arguably most famous game of the Soviet chess grandmaster Mikhail Tal (a Jew, incidentally), who sacrificed almost every piece he had on the board, even his queen, in order to deliver the final brilliant and inescapable line of moves that led to checkmate (via a minor piece, at that). I think that that game was in 1968 or thereabouts.

Ah. Got it: “Tal vs. Vasily Smyslov, Yugoslavia Candidates’ Tournament 1959, Caro–Kann Defence (B10), 1–0.[33] A daring piece sacrifice to win a brilliancy prize“: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikhail_Tal. As I thought, it was against Smyslov.

Looks like my memory is still OK (though I got the date wrong)…

Chess is a rather comforting game. If I have leisure and time, and am not too occupied elsewhere, I should take it up again.

At last…

(of course, the Israelis may have secret back-up facilities elsewhere).

We must create the basis for a Northern European ethnostate.

Translates into a Reform UK government with a Commons majority of at least 50 (Reform 377, Lab 141, LibDem 52, SNP 37, Cons 13). For the Conservative Party, this may be the end of the line.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

I suppose she thought she had been elected (selected) as a real (old-style) Labour MP, not as lobby fodder for the Labour Friends of Israel cabal of Starmer-stein and company…

Wall. Squad. End.

The whole world is waking up (again) to “them”…

[“Retired US Army Colonel: “Israel’s situation is critical: the Iron Dome has turned into a sieve !” Douglas McGregor: “The situation in Israel is extremely grave. About a third of Tel Aviv is either destroyed or seriously damaged, and I am sure this trend will continue. I am told that a significant part of their aircraft has been evacuated from the country – many planes have been transferred to Cyprus to protect against attacks. Frankly speaking, Israel is in an extremely vulnerable and critical situation. Figuratively speaking, it is “hanging by a thread”. The missile defense and air defense systems will last only a few days. Those who are now in Israel describe to me that the Iron Dome has effectively become a “sieve” – it no longer provides protection.”]

As I wrote, in effect, previously today.

Here are a few:

The UK could have Russian gas at cost to heat homes and to power industry, if only this country’s pathetic governments were willing to stop joining in with the basically American NWO/ZOG anti-Russia strategy.

True enough, but the main attack on free speech in the UK comes from the Jewish or Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, and I never hear Matt Goodwin or Farage (etc) saying anything about that.

At what point does the encroaching slow-motion dictatorship programme become impossible to counter by merely “peaceful” means?

You cannot even take items to the local rubbish dump without booking a slot. Absurd.

“Maria Zakharova ridiculed British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy’s claim that “the British-Ukrainian partnership goes back thousands of years.” ” The roots of this friendship go back to the foot of the Egyptian pyramids? Why so little? They even hunted brontosauruses together ,” Zakharova joked.

During a visit to Kiev, David Lemmy stated that “Kiev princesses were marrying British princes” a thousand years ago.”

Lammy personifies the old Russian proverb, “an ape in a silk suit is still an ape“…(incidentally, that proverb was not originally meant to reference blacks, because there were none in Russia until the 20thC and even today they are few; it was basically metaphorical).

Here is “diversity-hire”, thick-as-two-short-planks, Lammy making a fool of himself once again, this time on Celebrity Mastermind:

Ha ha! Evergreen…

Incidentally, Ukraine only became a nominally independent state in 1991, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Its entire previous history was as part of the Russian state or its predecessor, Rus, though parts of Western Ukraine were within the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries.

Lammy is a total embarrassment as Foreign Secretary, but Starmer cannot easily sack him, having appointed him. Why? Because he is black. Simply that.

“The NHS has advertised almost a dozen ‘woke‘ jobs within the last few weeks, including one equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) role paying almost £123,000, MailOnline can reveal.

The recruitment drive comes days after Health Secretary Wes Streeting warned diversity and inclusion in the NHS has gone too far with some staff now promoting ‘anti-whiteness’ within the health service.

The Associate Dean with responsibility for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion role, advertised by NHS England, is based in the South West and comes with a salary of £122,470.

The salary is equivalent to the entry-level pay of up to three NHS doctors or four nurses. 

According to the job description, the successful candidate can work from home 60 per cent of the time and will be responsible for ensuring medical students from different backgrounds have equal opportunities.”

British people find it hard to access peanuts-level State benefits, but a foreign migrant-invader, who entered this country on a fraudulent basis, is given £100,000! She should not even be here! You really could not make up what is happening in this country.

Incidentally, look at the readers’ comments on that Daily Mail report. It is only a thousand or more years of slow accretion of patience, and belief in a society under law, that is preventing a socio-political explosion in the UK (so far).

Give me one…

If you go into a shop in, say, Egypt, a small shop that in the UK (if owned by real British people) would probably have one or two people, maybe three at most, but probably one or two, working there, you will find that the owner has half a dozen people working there, probably related to him in some way. Open long hours, perhaps, and the people there doing little individually. Paid peanuts, of course. Likewise, offices.

I understand that India and other such poor countries are similar.

Non-crime “hate” incidents are, ipso facto, not crimes. If the police continue to be incapable of doing their proper job, and if they continue to behave like a blundering, hopeless, poundshop KGB, snooping on people’s opinions, tweets, blogs etc, they deserve to be, when the UK has a real government, dismissed and put to work as forced labour.

On those figures, the House of Commons might look like this: Reform UK 256, Labour 217, LibDems 78, Conservatives 43, Greens 6 (SNP 19 etc).

That would mean either a weak minority Reform government, or an exceptionally-weak Labour minority government backed by LibDems, SNP and other minor parties.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

Arguably the most interesting aspect of the latest polling is the apparent continuing collapse of the Conservative Party (predicted, of course, on this blog). Not only 4th placed, after the LibDems in 3rd, but with little better than half as many MPs as the LibDems.

I read today that CCHQ may be unable to pay the rent on its office building. I would not be surprised to see quite a few Con Party MPs now jump to Reform in the hope of being accepted as candidates for the seats they currently occupy as “Conservatives”. I wonder how many will be deemed acceptable. If they delay too long crossing the line, they may not be accepted.

I was interested to read that article on the Conservative Home website. The comments were 95% or more pro-Reform and anti-Con Party.

[James Wilson]

You will get no “apology” from Myerson. “They” always like to extract “apologies” from their enemies or opponents; they see that as victory (and humiliation for those “apologizing”).

Their instincts are, of course, not those of the European.

As Corbyn noted, years ago, “they” also usually lack a sense of irony, likewise the ability to see themselves.

Myerson was sacked as a p/t judge (“Recorder”) last year for his inability to stop savagely insulting others online. In short, he was found to lack the proper judgment required of those who aspire to sit on the Bench.

Double Twit Time

Saw two silly twits on Sky News earlier, being interviewed separately. The first was someone called General Shirreff (retired) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shirreff], who thinks that war with Russia is all but inevitable, that the UK should double or triple the amount it spends on armed services in all ways, and that it is essential for the UK to back up “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev).

I find it disturbing that an officer previously at such a high rank and with such heavy responsibilities until retirement should actually think that Britain should embroil itself even further in the brutal, shambolic, and corrupt Kiev-regime war, and try to confront Russia in Eastern Europe.

Come to that, the UK should also have steered clear of a number of other late-19thC and early 20thC conflicts: the Balkan war(s) of the 1990s, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Libyan uprising.

President Kennedy said, of General Curtis LeMay [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_LeMay], that, in a war requiring an all-out attack, you would want LeMay commanding the first wave of the bomber force, but that he was the last person who should decide whether there should be a war at all. Having heard General Shirreff’s attempt at geopolitical argument, I rather think that that is also my view of General Shirreff.

Any war with Russia would leave what is left of this country, and worth defending, in ruins. Irradiated ruins, over which those of us who survive will crawl in misery. Nein danke!

As for the other twit seen this evening, one Alex Chalk [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Chalk].

The said Chalk, who lost his Commons seat in 2024, was briefly Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice under Sunak. My thoughts about him, having now heard him (I was only peripherally aware of his existence, previously) relate more to his ideas about how to fund the justice system than to his actual decisions when in high office. He wants even more cuts to the “welfare” (social security) budget, and for that money to be directed to the courts, legal professions, prisons etc. A rehash of 2010-2015 “austerity” nonsense, in short, but with money given to the legal and justice system (and defence). He seemed a smug bastard, rather full of himself. Again, nein danke!

There comes a point when many people wonder whether we still have much worth “defending”. In fact, I think that many have already reached such a conclusion, which is why recruitment to the armed forces has become a thorny issue. I saw an ad for the Army today, showing an entirely black platoon in the field. Has the Army given up trying to recruit real British people?
