Well, this week a narrow victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 6/10. I scored 7/10, and did not know the answers to questions 3, 5, and 8.
[Starmer-stein and Angela Rayner kneel in fealty to the black mobs of “Black Lives Matter” a few years ago, at Westminster. Both traitors to the British people]
Well over half the adult population of the UK get at least some of their income from social security “welfare” benefits. If you include state pensions in the definition, the figure must be over 60%. Attack people’s survival at your peril, Starmer-stein.
Yes, Farage, as a finance-capitalist promoter, also wants to reduce the “welfare bill”, but if Starmer thinks that the way to stop Reform UK is to say “they will do it too“, he is certainly very mistaken.
There is a necessity to move towards some kind of Basic Income system, once the connected immigration and migration-invasion issue is fully sorted-out.
"The state, the establishment, the elite class, will now go to war with Reform and try to block anything and everything they set out to do."https://t.co/fhacQZEP9H
I have already predicted that on the blog. Look at the House of Lords. Already over 800 members, and by 2029 could be 900 or more. Not one adheres to Reform UK. Farage could either abolish the Lords, or create 1,000 new peers. If he does neither, he may well find any radical legislation blocked.
No Labour minister will ever solve this fiasco, no matter who is in the Home Office. Because so long as Labour refuse to LEAVE the ECHR, scrap Blair’s Human Rights Act, and detain & deport the boats will keep on coming .. another 600 todaypic.twitter.com/nZoajo2ErD
Britain has no need for any new housing at all. What it needs is fewer inhabitants. Fewer (no) migrant-invaders, more (none at present) remigration, more (not much happening at present) deportation, and (not happening at present) elimination of greedy developers.
"Labour routinely claims it’s “returning more people than ever” but, in reality, only 4% of all small boat arrivals have been returned."https://t.co/0uCfgX2fsc
“Small boat” arrivals are only about 5% of all arrivals by migrants. Concentrating on the “small boats” (however necessary that is) often misses the bigger problem, which is “legal” immigration, and also births to non-Europeans.

The Kiev regime is losing 1,000-2,000 troops on the front-lines every single day. Therefore, the Kiev-regime’s press-gangs abduct potentially-suitable, if unwilling, “recruits” off the streets.
The “recruits” know that to be posted to the front-lines is an almost-guaranteed death sentence, so they fight their abductors, or try to flee. Most fail, and are carted away to be brutally subdued, then given a few weeks of rudimentary training before ending up in the squalid ranks of other impressed “soldiers” on those front-lines. Low or no pay, little food, and an open-ended commitment. No wonder that several hundred thousand have deserted in the past 3+ years.

Gaza’s Health Ministry said six Palestinians have died of Israeli-induced starvation in the past 24 hours, bringing the total number to 382 people, including 135 children.
Meanwhile, the Jew-Zionists in the UK, such as that dead-eyed woman in Brighton who is very prolific on Twitter/X, say “oh, look, the ‘Pals’ say that we, the Jews, Israeli Jews, are literally starving to death children in Gaza, but here is one starved child in Gaza who may have died from a pre-existing rare medical condition!So the Palestinian Arabs in Gaza are lying!“…
I do not think that “they”, or most of them, even really see themselves, they are so indoctrinated.
…and what about the tens of thousands of Arab children killed by bombing, shooting (including deliberate and sadistic targeting) etc by the Israeli forces over the past 3 years alone?

Iran is trying to produce viable nuclear weapons, and is pushing ahead with production of thousands, tens of thousands, of drones, as well as advanced medium to long-range rockets with high-grade conventional warheads in large numbers. When the time comes, the rockets will rain down on Israel. Israel is doomed.

Once Reform tries and fails to do more than, say, 10% of what is necessary (not just on migration invasion, but across the waterfront), real social nationalism can arise, for the first time since the 1930s.
The 2026 local elections, which will include parts of Solihull, will probably prove a wipe-out for both Lab and Con. It looks as though Reform’s time has come.

Lucy Connolly said today she wants to work with Reform. She should stand against Yvette Cooper, a seat she’d win. Lucy Connolly bringing down the politician who expanded ‘non-crime hate incidents’ would be too perfect
I have seen replies to Goodwin’s tweet, those saying that Lucy Connolly would be disqualified from standing by reason of having been sentenced to, or detained for, more than one year. That is not so. Now that she has been released, there is no legal or constitutional bar on her standing for election as an MP.
It would just be brilliant were Lucy Connolly to stand against Yvette Cooper and win. I think it would be possible. Yvette Cooper got a 47.5% vote-share in 2024, with Reform in —fairly good— second place on 29.1%. The Con candidate was well behind on 15%. However, turnout was a mere 48.2%.
Bearing in mind Yvette Cooper’s incompetent showing as Home Secretary, the fall in support for Labour, and the collapse in support for the Conservative Party, it is not implausible to guess that, at the next General Election, the result in that constituency might be to return Lucy Connolly for Reform UK with maybe 50% of the vote, Yvette Cooper for Labour getting maybe 35%, and the Con candidate 5%.
Tactical voting might well play a part. A Con vote in that constituency is a wasted vote now. Also, as said, in 2024, fewer than half of the eligible voters even voted (48.2%), indicating extreme disenchantment with both Lab and Con, the previous main contenders there (in a differently-named constituency on somewhat different boundaries).

Reform UK 38.72%, Labour 38.7%, Conservatives 7.17%, Greens 7.09%. The other 11 candidates lost their deposits, the LibDem coming 5th of the 15 candidates, and with a mere 2.88%.
What is so good about the result is that, had Starmer-stein managed to hold on to Runcorn and Helsby, even with one vote, he would have been able to weasel about “hard choices“, “making the tough decisions” etc. Now, the public can be seen to have replied with a massive “NO!” to all such Blair/Brown/Cameron (etc) dissembling.
So Reform (not my party, not my kind of party, not really my ideology, but halfway there) now has 5 MPs (6, really, Rupert Lowe having been elected under the Reform banner). Under a fairer electoral system, Reform in 2024 would have had 92 MPs anyway, not 5.
5-6 MPs may seem a small bloc, but for most of the 1950s and 1960s, the old Liberal Party had the same number, before struggling into double figures for the first time since 1945, and then recovering under their new name, the Liberal Democrats: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)#Electoral_performance.
Now the dam has burst. The main System parties have lost all credibility. Today Reform, but tomorrow who knows?

[“Remember Runcorn!“]
What won it for Reform UK in Runcorn was the total collapse of the Conservative vote. If we can get the Tories out of the way we can defeat Labour everywhere.
Farage may be a snake-oil salesman but “God moves in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform“. Once Farage and Reform have hacked the way through the jungle, real social nationalism will be able to break through. Maybe in 2033, the centenary of 1933. Just a thought…
Andrea Jenkyns

More thoughts about the by-election, local elections etc
The discomfiture of System drones, especially Labour ones, is both very evident and hilarious to see. Last night, I saw a section of the Sky News election coverage. One of the “experts” on their little panel was the TV talking head, now elevated to the degraded Lords as a “baroness”, Ayesha Hazarika. She obviously hates it that Reform is becoming electorally popular.
That Ayesha Hazarika person is emblematic of the times in which we live in the UK. Of Indian origin, she was a lowly civil service press officer before becoming a stand-up “comedian” (comedienne), a markedly unsuccessful one.
Despite that, her connections in the Labour Party ensured that she not only got “advisory” political work, but also slots on TV discussion panels and, eventually, the “peerage” (nominated by Starmer-stein).
Such peerages pay out £361 a day taxfree (when the House is sitting, i.e. 102 days per annum, plus travel costs and, in many cases, the costs of hotels or rent of flats etc in London. The £361 daily allowance is paid for up to 102 days per year, so as much as around £37,000 in a year. No fortune, but it is taxfree (so worth the same as a salary of maybe £50,000 or so), and all a “baroness” or “lord” has to do to get it is to sign in every day claimed for. It can take as little as 30 minutes, but why not stay and have an excellent and absurdly-subsidized lunch too?
A friend of mine often used to lunch with a peer of the realm (one of the real and unpaid old hereditary ones, not a life peer) in the 1980s and 1990s. She told me about the kind of luxury food and wine they had, and how low were the prices of that.
What a broken system. A low-level civil servant office bod and unsuccessful comic entertainer can get to know a few MPs, get on Newsnight or Sky News a bit, then become a member of the upper chamber of our legislature. It is absolutely ridiculous.
Turning from the Hazarika creature to more general matters, it is clear that the Westminster Bubblers simply do not understand what is driving the Reform phenomenon. They are too well-padded to feel the pain of so many people in this country.
Reform is underwhelming, really, yet look at what is happening! The voters are clutching at the Reform straw because not only are the main System parties useless, but they appear intent on stamping on British people, on their preferred way of life, on their history and on their future.
Labour especially is in the hands of secretive and hostile cabals. Starmer-stein is the obvious example: a freemason married to a Jewish woman, and who, at Easter, did not (as far as I have seen) invite any English children to Downing Street but did invite a group of Jewish children celebrating one of their religious festivals which occurred at about the same time.
Starmer-stein and his cabal have cut the small incomes of pensioners, the sick, the old, the unemployed, but have thrown money at “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) and at Israel (e.g. by paying for RAF surveillance flights over Gaza and other Arab territory, then giving the intelligence product to Israel for free).
I was driving in one of the most affluent parts of southern England this morning, and the road could have been in some broken-down part of the world; potholed, and poorly surfaced generally. Why? Why? I do not recall roads in England being as bad as this in the past, prior to, say, 2010. certainly not in the 1980s. “Austerity”? Poor priorities?
People are getting very fed up, indeed angry, at the way things are going. Reform UK is just the first step. People will go much further if the country continues to be so broken, and even more invaded by migrant-invaders (“legal” and “illegal”).
At present, there is no indication that the direction of travel of the UK is anywhere but straight down.

It’s wrong to call Reform a “protest party”, as many doing tonight. Protest implies voters are backlashing irrationally against the system & don’t know what they want. But they do know. End mass immigration. Fix the borders. Stop the boats. Prioritise British people.
Runcorn and Helsby was the first big test of the current parliament. Reform surged. A Labour Party stronghold was overturned. The Tories continued to go backwards. And the political map was redrawn. I suspect all this will now be the theme of the next four years.

Starmer-stein wants to impose “woke” tyranny along with (((the usual))) concealed dictatorship in this country. He has to be opposed by any necessary means.

“Pine martens return to Dartmoor after 150-year absence.
“Fifteen of the nimble, tree-climbing mammals were released last month at secret locations in Devon.
Fifteen pine martens are darting through the woods of Dartmoor for the first time in 150 years after the rare but recovering species was reintroduced into south-west England.
The nimble, tree-climbing mustelids were released last month at secret locations in the steep, tree-lined valleys of Devon in what conservationists are hailing as a historic step in the restoration of the region’s woodlands.
The eight adult females and seven males were caught from resurgent populations in Scotland, meticulously checked for health, and driven to 10 woodland pens, where they were released under the cover of darkness well away from people and busy roads. The threat of road traffic is a big risk for the mostly nocturnal animals.
Fitted with GPS or radio tags depending on their size (lighter radio tags were used on the smaller individuals), the animals were fed in the pens for three days to acclimatise, before the doors were opened and the martens slipped away into the night.
Pine martens were driven to extinction in England at the turn of the 20th century by the loss of forests and persecution, with gamekeepers in particular targeting the animals for preying upon pheasants and poultry.“

Iranian attack on Israel
Puzzling to an observer. It seems that the attack was mostly if not entirely on military targets. The Israelis are keeping the scale of the damage secret. I had thought that there would be a large number of civilian casualties (as when the Israelis attack Lebanon, Gaza, Syria etc) but it seems that hardly any Israelis have been killed or even injured.
I have seen no indication of whether the Dimona nuclear weapons plant was hit.
Likewise, it seems odd that the main international airport suffered no, or no substantial, damage. I should have thought that that would have been a priority target.
Looking on from outside, it is hard to fully understand both the overall situation and the details, such as how many rockets (and of what type) Iranian forces have; likewise on the Israeli side.
Well, appoint members of the House of Lords from the bazaars of South Asia, from the slums of Jamaica and West Africa, and from the tribe of “the usual suspects”, and naturally the whole institution crumbles. Who would have guessed?…
NEW Overwhelming support for James Cleverly in 10 random interviews I’ve just done for @GBNEWS with members leaving the hall just now. Many have switched from other candidates. It seems Cleverly won the debate in the hall. Will MPs put him through to the final two next week?…
A half-African, with a “degree” in Hospitality Management from Ealing College, as Leader of the Conservative Party and, potentially, as Prime Minister? What could possibly go wrong? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Cleverly.
Having said that, the other three candidates are also bad jokes: a Nigerian woman married to a banker of uncertain provenance; a part-Jew former “chocolate soldier”; a dishonest and corrupt moneygrubber married to a Jewish woman lawyer. All three vocally pro-Israel.
At least Cleverly is rather less vocal in his support for Israel and the Jewish lobby.
I suppose that most scribblers and msm talking heads are expecting the Conservative Party to revive as Starmer’s hopeless government continues to falter (after only 3 months), but that may not happen.
For me, the most telling aspect of GE 2024 is that, in broad terms, out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 decided not to vote at all. Beyond that, out of the 12 that did vote, only 4 voted “Labour”, only 3 voted “Conservative”, and then 2 voted Reform UK, 2 voted LibDem, and 1 (just about) voted Green.
At present, the underwhelming Reform UK is the only game in town in terms of becoming an unofficial populist Opposition. The LibDems are just beneficiaries of a ridiculously illogical voting system. The “don’t know how to vote so vote LibDem” party.
None of the 4 contenders for Conservative Party leadership are really of any importance; none —say I— will ever be Prime Minister.

Having said that, I now see that, after the unexplained elevation of Charlotte Owen, an equally-absurd “ennoblement” occurred this very year, when one Carmen Smith of the joke-“nationalist” Welsh party, Plaid Cymru, was made a member of the House of Lords aged just 27. A woman whose academic background consists of having attended one year, if that, of a 3-year law degree in Wales, before she dropped out, and whose work experience consists of about 18-24 months as an office gopher for several organizations (she spent 6-10 months in each).

The Starmer-Labour government now intends to remove the remaining hereditary peers from the Lords. In principle, I would have no argument with that for several reasons: firstly, the hereditary peers (both those still sitting and the larger number removed by Blair in 1999) almost all had their “aristocratic” family pedigrees dating from as recently as 1900.
Until the era of George III (18thC), the House of Lords numbered only about 50 peers. By 1999, all but a handful of peers could trace their “aristocratic” lineage back only as far as the Lloyd George era of the early 20thC, when sales of honours happened on a wide scale.
The House of Lords has always, certainly from 1900, been a bit of a fake in terms of “aristocratic” credentials.
Having said that, Blair’s typically wrongheaded reform of 1999 has merely resulted in an ever-growing number of time-served ex-MPs, political donors, and low-grade cronies etc being given life peerages. Over 700 at latest count.
The two mentioned above, Charlotte Owen and Carmen Smith, are just the tip of the iceberg. As long ago as 2011, useless Oona King, half American black, half Jewish, was put into the Lords having lost her seat as MP in 2005, and having failed to become Mayor of London: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oona_King. She had ridden the “diversity” carousel to get that far, and continues to do so, though she retired from the House of Lords in 2024 and is now “head of diversity” at, of all things, Uber taxis.
I read Oona King’s book of memoirs, The Oona King Diaries: House Music, many years ago. Utterly cretinous. I should have been able to refer readers of the blog to my Amazon review of the book, but the “usual suspects” (malicious Jew-Zionists) had my reviews all taken down over a decade ago. I am now unable to review on Amazon, despite once having been voted a “top 100” reviewer. “Free society”?
There seems little point in having the House of Lords at all now, even as a so-called “revising chamber”, a job at which the Lords is useless anyway.

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

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

“The Labour parliamentary candidate for Poole, Neil Duncan-Jordan, said he and others have been targeted with ’disgusting and disrespectful’ comments.

Mr Duncan-Jordan said: “In the last few days there have been three separate incidents that have caused me concern. I’ve been called a ‘white traitor’, one of my supporters was spat at and I was told that “Adolf Hitler had the right idea.”
“I think it’s important that all candidates in this election come out clearly and say that antisemitism, racism and fascist views have absolutely no place in modern Britain.
“Spitting at someone because you don’t like their political views is disgusting and disrespectful. We cannot allow this kind of behaviour to become the acceptable norm.”
The candidate has reported the incidents to the police.“
[Bournemouth Echo]
Well, while I would never condone spitting at (or for that matter, throwing milkshakes over) people (as a Labour supporter did to Farage recently), if a candidate wants to knock on people’s doors to engage them in political debate, he must expect some of his “victims” to cut up rough, bearing in mind what the System parties have been doing to this country.

As for that specimen being interviewed— ghastly.
For me, and surely objectively, the idea that, after an admittedly egregious attack (by Hamas) lasting some hours, or one 24-hour period, the Israeli response has been “proportionate” or “self-defence” (killing or wounding, so far, about 100,000, mostly women and children, and young persons under-18), is almost mad. Completely disproportionate, and way beyond anything reasonably describable as “self-defence”.
The Hamas/Gazan side does not have planes, tanks, armoured personnel carriers, really powerful missiles, bombs etc.
After the initial one-day attack from Gaza in October 2023, and arguably a day or so later, nothing the Israeli side has done can possibly be called “proportionate” or “in self-defence“.

The two inside seemed to be preparing to pay, but made up a story about how others were going to pay. One of the two, then the other, went “to fetch the others” but of course disappeared.

Well, there were two minor sequels to that incident. The first was the same day. On arrival in Calais or Boulogne (I forget which, and was a regular arrival at both, in those days), and on going back to my car on the ferry, I noticed the small crowd of foot passengers at a disembarkation point. One of them was a tall girl aged about 18-20, who was part of that “tinker” group. I noticed that she was now alone, and trying to “play grey”, i.e. blending in with the other foot passengers.
The other members of the “tinker” group were not there. Had they stayed in the UK? Had they gone to vehicles? Who knows?
The other sequel was that I stopped by the same cafe about 6 months later, and asked whether the police had done anything. Apparently not, though that may have been because the registration number taken was not a known one (probably false).
Statement
Regular readers of the blog will be aware that I am being prosecuted on 5 counts of breach of the notorious “bad law” known as Communications Act 2003, s. 127, relating to five blog posts allegedly posted by me.
Political “crime”.
I have already stated that I shall not be blogging in detail about the case until it is concluded.
Today, I attended the magistrates’ court for a case management hearing. At that hearing, various directions were given. The only ones of interest to readers of the blog are that there will be another case management hearing later in the year (in October), and that a trial date has not as yet been fixed but possible dates are in the latter half of November 2023. If those dates prove ineffective, then it may be that the trial of this entirely pointless and malicious prosecution will not take place until December 2023, or even a later date, i.e. in 2024.
I shall blog in detail about the matter once the trial has been held (assuming that one is held).

Even discounting the obvious propagandistic element (in which all the main parties of WW2 indulged), the film is interesting. I was always struck by how healthy most of those released from German camps looked, as seen in Allied, not in German, films. For example, there are photographs of women released from concentration camps into the custody of the Swedish Red Cross in 1945. They all look healthy, not starved, and in fact quite normal physically.

He had a point, looking at the symbiotic relationship between technical innovation, industrial change, and social change in, say, the 19th Century. Not for nothing did Engels go to the rapidly expanding industries of Manchester and other parts of the North of England in order to study both the new industrial working classes and the parallel socio-political ferment of the early Victorian period.
That answer sure does sound a lot more like the young, foreign men pouring into Germany than it does the young German men they’re replacing.

Meet Charlotte Owen. The 29 year old advisor to Boris Johnson who will now put her vast experience of 18 months in government to good use as a peer in the House of Lords. Now that's democracy! pic.twitter.com/O5kyj7Mq3Y
A student until 2015/2016. An unpaid “gopher” “intern” for a year or two after that. Finally, a “Special Adviser” from 2017 or 2018. Five years of political gophering and toadying now crowned by elevation to the House of Lords. The beginning of the end for our fake “democracy”, in a single appointment.
My take? That the appointment is one of “Boris” Johnson’s fingers stuck up to his party, his critics, his now-former constituents, and to the country as a whole. Several of the others on the “honours” list may also have been “Boris”-idiot’s way of saying to the world, “F…U.”.

In the admittedly unlikely case that all the mugs are giving £44 each, that would add up to over £18,000 a month. My guess? She is getting about £5,000 a month in cash from her mug-base.

I blogged years ago about how, when I was at the old Warsaw airport in December 1988 (quite nice— white marble floors and oriental-style carpets in the cafe), waiting for a late flight to London, I got talking to the only other person there, a youngish American (I suspect, Jew) wearing an overcoat and hat (there was snow on the ground outside the terminal). It turned out that he was the Newsweek correspondent for Eastern Europe, which meant everywhere from the West German frontier to the Soviet one, and south/southeast as far as the Black Sea and Adriatic.
That young or youngish person, maybe late twenties, covered the waterfront of Central and Eastern Europe from Bonn, of all places. I quickly established that I, myself only an occasional visitor to places such as Poland, nonetheless knew far more about the situation there than he did, yet his magazine (and so all its readers) relied on him for accurate reportage. Enlightening.
American news magazines are pretty poor; the best was probably the one to which I used to subscribe when in the USA in the early 1990s, U.S. News and World Report. That magazine ceased print publication long ago.
“The engineer battalions of the 33rd Mechanized and 47th Assault Brigades, the lead formations in Ukraine’s 2023 counteroffensive, suffered heavy equipment losses in their assault just south of Mala Tokmachka last week.
The losses include at least five of the battalions’ specialized engineering vehicles. Fitted with mineplows and minerollers, these vehicles lead tanks and infantry fighting vehicles through minefields, plowing and rolling a path so the tanks and IFVs can break through enemy defenses.
The Russian air force moreover has control of the air over the southern front line and has been able to fly back-to-back sorties with attack helicopters and fighter-bombers—a critical advantage that Ukraine’s ground-based air-defenses haven’t been able to blunt.“

No-one, of course, suggests that Johnson simply be shot. Everyone these days is running too scared of the UK’s emerging toytown police state dystopia, its poundland-KGB police, and its risible “anti-terror” snoopers and prosecutors. I cannot, however, think of a suitable punishment for Johnson. In any case, while he is far less honest, honourable and worthy even than his former colleagues in the Westminster monkeyhouse, from the straight political point of view he is no worse than many of them.

An annoying early-morning start to the day, waking up not far past the middle of the night to typical rubbish on the BBC World Service. A programme called United Zingdom, in which what sounded like two Welsh women (one certainly was, being one Lisa Angharad) got together to trash England, the UK, and the British people. One of them apparently has a Singapore passport as well as a British one.
Everything, it seems, is the fault of “the British” (English). They, the English, are basically nasty, “racist” etc. They should not want their own country, language, customs, population. Now Wales, Wales is different! It (apparently) should have its own language etc. The bias and sheer untruth in that little broadcast was incredible.
The woman with the Singapore passport was asked about whether she would prefer to live there and seemed to affirm, though she said that “but they have anti-gay laws there…”, which apparently was a drawback. She then added “…but the British brought those to Singapore“. Ah, so once more the British (and failing that, no doubt any other white Northern Europeans) were to blame! I should have guessed. The other woman then chimed in with “ah, the British again“. Why are we paying (forced to pay) the BBC so that it can pay bitches like that to spout anti-British propaganda?
They should have added that, until the British arrived on the island of Singapore, there was nothing there at all, and had not been for at least 200 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Singapore
Another couple of deliberate inaccuracies: we were told that the Welsh language is vibrant and becoming more spoken, and that there is “a huge upsurge” in Welsh nationalism.
Language: I myself know from experience in the 1980s that Welsh is naturally a first language in some areas, in West Wales especially. It seems however that less than a quarter of the Welsh population as a whole speak Welsh to any useable standard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_language
Welsh nationalism: Plaid Cymru is only nominally “nationalist” anyway, willing to have people in Wales “whatever their race, nationality, gender, colour, creed [etc]” [Plaid Cymru platform].
Plaid Cymru controls only one local council in Wales (out of dozens). It also has 4 out of 40 Westminster MPs (a figure unchanged or not much changed since the 1970s), and in the last (and final) EU elections had elected 1 MEP out of 4 (their best result was in 1999, 2 out of 5).
Conclusion: there is no upsurge of Welsh “nationalism”, let alone a huge one.
The trashing of the World Service has been one of the saddest things over the past 30 years. It was once interesting, lively, truthful, stimulating. 1970s and 1980s. Now, it cannot even seem to be able to tell the time clearly! The World Service seemed to go into a kind of spiral of decline in the 1990s. A Jewish woman whose name I forget was on constantly, and —quelle surprise— obsessed on air about “holocaust” and “Nazis” almost nonstop.
The decline of BBC World Service continued, reaching (I hope) the bottom round about 2010. In the past year or two, there has been a slight improvement, but only slight. There are still only a few worthwhile programmes, the best being The Forum, especially when presented by Bridget Kendall: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3cszjvchttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridget_Kendall.
Martin Bell, the famous broadcaster, journalist and one-term MP [Independent, Tatton] made the point several times that, in dangerous parts of the world (Iraq, Bosnia etc) people know the BBC World Service, yet the World Service is funded on a shoestring compared to rather useless projects such as the British Council [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Council]
I really value the BBC World Service, which is precisely why I despise what it has largely become. As Nietzsche wrote: “the great despisers are also the great reverers” [Friedrich Nietzsche, Also Sprach Zarathustra].

I’m so sick of this ‘The British People’ nonsense. It’s inflammatory and divisive and also errant vacuous nonsense with no meaning in a multi-party democracy. The phrase should be banned from political discourse. https://t.co/zVW56W5qlZ
Here we see science popularizer Professor Brian Cox putting forward, yet again, his tendentious political views. The sort of person all too common in the UK, meaning someone who wants the country to become even more of a multikulti dustbin. After all, “I’m all right, Jack”.
There are two types of scientist: the ones doing serious research and perhaps making real and even great discoveries or leaps forward; then there are the others, who are basically popular in the mass media, write books popular with the public, are on TV frequently, rack up official honours (and plenty of money) for all that. Nuff said…
Cox is a good example of the “clever person” (not infrequently someone of scientific background) who has come to think that he is a good deal more clever than he is and who, at least when out of his specialist area or areas, is rather silly.
Incidentally, he presumably meant to say “arrant nonsense“, not “errant nonsense“…

I fancy a nice house on the beach in either Africa or Asia. I'll admit, government benefits would do nicely too, along with free education & health care. Guaranteed sunshine. Do you think the natives would accept me & my white arsed family when we pitch up?
There are huge numbers of bien-pensant idiots in the UK, who love to think of themselves as kind, compassionate, generous etc, as they virtue-signal on Twitter and elsewhere. The famous or infamous ones, such as Yvette Cooper, Lily Allen, Gary Lineker etc are only the tip of the iceberg. Below their capital, income, and public-recognition levels, there are thousands, perhaps even millions of others.
I hesitate to say that none of those people, the “refugees welcome” dimwits, would ever accommodate migrant-invaders in their own homes. A few of the brainwashed and obscure ones might, just as, out of tens of millions, a very few people swim the Channel (to France, usually!), or learn to speak 10 languages fluently.
I met a man once who worked near Elephant and Castle, London, and who could speak, not 10 languages, admittedly, but certainly 8 languages fluently, and those languages did include some of the near-“impossible” ones, such as Finnish and Hungarian.
Such people are rare. They are not the general run. Most of the “refugees welcome” dimwits want the State and/or other people (which is all the State is, in the end) to house and feed those migrant-invaders, and to educate the children of the invaders. The dimwits prioritize the invaders over English/British people such as the ex-soldiers sleeping on the streets, or the middle-aged Brits struggling to survive after the (basically Jewish-influenced) “austerity” of 2010-2020 and the socio-economic upheavals which have occurred and those which lie ahead.
I thought that Richard Tice, 2-i-c of Brexit Party, had been nominated for a peerage; apparently not. Claire Fox has, though. What a strange nomination that is.
I first saw Claire Fox [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claire_Fox] on TV about a decade ago. I think that it was on Newsnight. Or Daily Politics. I think the former. She was supposedly the head of something called The Institute of Ideas. I was curious enough to look it up via Internet. There was not much to see. The “Institute” seemed to consist mainly of Claire Fox, and (I found out after a while) seemed to be funded mainly by a City of London hedge fund speculator Jew, whose name I cannot at present recall.
As for Claire Fox herself, as seen on TV, she was not at all impressive, not convincing; there was something fake about her and her “Institute”, even before I started to look into it.
I found the “Institute of Ideas” to be little more than a facade; indeed, little more than a catchy name. I was unable to discover much about it. The whole thing seemed opaque, insubstantial. One could not grasp hold of it.
I see now that others, such as the journalist and TV news presenter, Jon Snow, had similar problems:
” The news broadcaster Jon Snow, according to a Guardian article, withdrew from an event to which he had been invited by the Royal Society of Arts after realising the IoI’s involvement. Snow felt there was a lack of transparency. ‘I didn’t have a clear idea of who they were,’ he said. This lack of transparency affects almost every aspect of IoI events, as the article notes: ‘From the platforms and the floor, the LM [Living Marxism] line is assiduously promoted by the magazine’s supporters and contributors – often without clear attribution of their affiliations.’ ” [Lobbywatch] http://www.lobbywatch.org/profile1.asp?PrId=142]
It seems that the “Institute” was founded in 2000 by Fiona Fox, sister of Claire Fox, and other undisclosed persons. Fiona Fox also heads the Science Media Centre [http://www.lobbywatch.org/profile1.asp?PrId=121], which is embedded within the very Establishment scientific body, the Royal Institution [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Institution]. Another sister, Gemma Fox, heads an EU-funded IT organization in Wales.
Another fairly high-profile person connected with the above is Frank Furedi, a person of Hungarian origins, frequently on BBC radio [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Furedi], whose wife is the head of the UK’s largest abortion “advice” organization.
Some of the tweets of Spiked can command my support, many cannot, such as this pitiful article:
Hiroshima was an experiment in extermination. The West viewed the Japanese as racially distinct and inferior. Sadly, this kind of racial thinking has returned with a vengeance. We must say loud and clear: there is only one human race, says @MsDinglehttps://t.co/vKTf4MrWc1
Taking just the main contention of that article, the Anglo-American atom-bomb project aka the Manhattan Project or Tube Alloys [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_Project; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_Alloys] had as its primary aim the destruction of Germany and the German people, not Japan. Most of the scientists of importance were Jews. They hated Germany and National Socialism. Some were also Communists. Germany was only saved from atomic destruction by its unconditional surrender before the bomb was ready to be used.
The above exploration may or may not be interesting, but what interests me now and particularly is why did Boris-idiot (Boris Johnson) nominate Claire Fox for a peerage? Why?
Claire Fox has no real academic pedigree. Even in the 1980s (i.e. before the start of the present “award inflation”, by which almost all students get a supposed “First” or “Upper Second” degree), a 2:2 in English and American Literature scarcely cut it in the academic world! She was a mental health social worker for some years after graduation, then for 10 years a lecturer in English Literature at a couple of technical colleges in South Essex and in South Hertfordshire.
I think that we can be sure that Claire Fox’s peerage nomination was not for “services to education”!
We have already seen that, as a “think tank”, the “Institute of Ideas” scarcely existed. Even as an active lobby group, its activities do not seem to have had much impact. Claire Fox, despite a few appearances on TV, including the —now very outdated— Question Time, was not until recently (until 2019) a very publicly-known person; neither has she been involved with anything normally likely to attract an honour of any sort, let alone a peerage.
What about Claire Fox’s political life? Well, membership of the Revolutionary Communist Party or anything like it has never been an easy route to the House of Lords! Anyone with similar views who ended up with a peerage at least had to pretend to be “Labour”! I cannot think of many, even so. A few Jews, now long gone, perhaps. As for a “revolutionary communist”, even one now sort-of apostate, being ennobled “on the recommendation of” a Conservative Party Prime Minister would have been unthinkable, until now.
Claire Fox joined Nigel Farage’s pop-up “Brexit Party” in 2019, was selected (along with at least two other “former” Revolutionary Communist Party members) as a candidate for the European elections. She was elected, and was an MEP for about a year, until the UK nominally left the EU. One year…
It goes beyond that. Claire Fox has said things that many consider unforgiveable, such as, and in particular, her championing of IRA bombing in 1993, specifically the killing of a child.
Looking at it all, it seems inconceivable that, even a few years ago, or today, such a person could ever be nominated for a peerage, to become one of the UK’s upper house legislators, even bearing in mind the weird collection now in the Lords. Yet there she sits (soon). In fact, her previous (never reversed) support for the IRA has not stood in her way. Even the Sun “newspaper” has her on its YouTube channel!
Not that I disagree with everything she says. I agree with some of what she is saying in the above clip. [Having now —several hours later— seen all of the interview, I concede that I agree with a good deal of what she says in it].
So why was she given (nomination for) a peerage? I cannot entirely work it out, but it is obviously connected with her work for Brexit, and even more so with the standing down of most Brexit Party candidates while the election campaign was ongoing. A stunning act of betrayal by con-man Nigel Farage. He shot his own party in the neck. Or the back. Moreover, he stood down only candidates facing previously-incumbent or new Conservative Party candidates! Including Conservative Party candidates who were Remain supporters!
Nigel Farage ensured that the Conservative Party won the 2019 General Election. It might have won anyway, but might not have done, and certainly would not have achieved a Commons majority of 80 (or any majority).
If I am correct, and Claire Fox has been somehow rewarded for supporting Farage in his betrayal, why has Farage himself (or his 2-i-c, Tice), not been nominated for the House of Lords? There could be a number of reasons, such as (speculating) that Farage has been paid, as his reward, millions of pounds into an offshore secret account. Why not? I have no evidence that that is the case, but it seems not unlikely to me. £10 million? £20 million? Cheap at the price, when you get the UK in exchange…
Anyway, “the night is young”. Farage still might get a peerage from Boris-idiot; next year, or the year after. Tice too, maybe. Maybe Claire Fox getting one now is in the nature of a “statement of intent” or down-payment to Farage. Maybe giving Farage a peerage right now would make the corruption and betrayal just too obvious. Next year? 2022? Maybe.
The present politics of the System is more than sleazy. It has to be exterminated.

I think that the film is one of the best of its type that I have seen. Quite long on TV (with ad breaks, 2 hrs 35 mins), it nonetheless kept the attention throughout (and that is not always the case with me: in younger days, as a 20-something, I was notorious among my friends for getting bored and walking out of cinemas after 20 or 30 minutes of the start of a film).
Assuming that the film was accurate (and I do remember some of the details of that terrible event of 2013), the wife of the main terrorist —she was a Muslim convert, he a Chechen resident in the Boston area— was lucky that it was considered that there was insufficient evidence to charge her.
As for the surviving terrorist, he only last week won his appeal against the death sentence he eventually received. He will spend the rest of his life in some soulless American prison. He was only 19 when he helped his brother to bomb the marathon event.
Such people cannot be described as “urban guerrillas”, if that term is still in use. They are purely terrorists, actuated by malice rather than anything approaching real ideology.
Some may say, “but look what American forces do, bombing civilians“, and that is true, but even from the point of view of hearts and minds, and leaving aside ethics, to bomb a civilian event like the Boston Marathon has no point and indeed is counter-productive: the Islamists gain nothing but the enmity of a superpower and its people.
The above musical fossil, dating from 1977, displays contrived (?) sentiments about “revolution”. As late as 1977, elements of the Soviet state were pretending to be all about proletarian revolution!
I recall commenting to my then girlfriend, about 1982, how the Soviet Union (where I had never been) seemed fossilized; I referred as example to the masthead of Pravda, which showed the cruiser Aurora, the naval vessel which, in October 1917 (old-style), fired the first shot signalling the Bolshevik seizure of power in Petrograd.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_cruiser_Aurora].
[the cruiser Aurora, as shown on the medal, the Order of the Red Banner; the words say “October Revolution”]
My then girlfriend, though certainly not Communist, disagreed with my analysis (that the Soviet Union was fossilized), and she had in a sense the advantage of me, having lived there for a number of years up to about 1978 or so and knew it, in general, far better than me. Still, I was right and she was wrong. Why?
There is a natural human tendency to accept that tomorrow will be at least similar to today. The daily commuter who goes on the train every day, until he dies unexpectedly overnight, or hits the Lotto.
The “Russian” Revolution seems today to have been almost inevitable, looking back over a century, and perhaps even two centuries (i.e. from the Decembrist revolt of 1825 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decembrist_revolt]. Hindsight is always so.
The Russians of 1917, most of them, were taken by surprise when the first (February, old-style) 1917 Revolution happened. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_Revolution]. Lenin, in exile, dismissed it as unimportant, or at least not as “the” predicted revolution (once-bitten, twice-shy, perhaps, Lenin having said, inaccurately, in 1905, that the uprising in that year was “the” revolution): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1905_Russian_Revolution
In 1917, having heard of the revolution, Lenin only arrived in revolutionary Petrograd 2 months later! He then started to organize the coup d’etat which occurred 6 months later and which is now known as the “October Revolution” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_Revolution].
When Lenin arrived in Petrograd, he had, in all Russia, probably only between 10,000-50,000 members in his Bolshevik faction: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolsheviks#Demographics_of_the_two_factions. Lenin prevailed because his faction had discipline, and because he was unwilling to compromise.
My point here, though, is that it is hard to tell when significant and even —perhaps especially— seismic change will occur, in society or in the world as a whole. Lenin managed to seize power in late 1917 mainly because the real revolution, earlier in the year, had not stabilized into a firm and effective government. Lenin was not the creator or instigator of that first event, in fact he was irrelevant in respect of it.
Turning from events in 1917 to those toward the end of the Soviet period, the Soviet Union had given up the idea of revolution decades before: after the death of Stalin in 1953, and arguably since the exile and —1940— death of Trotsky, or even earlier (“Socialism in one country” was mooted as far back as 1924, and put into practice, in part, in the 1930s).
The “revolution” stuff after that was strictly for the naive: foreign fools and, in the Soviet Union itself, mostly Young Pioneers (akin to the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides of Britain) and maybe a few Komsomol members.
Yet the image, right up to the collapse of 1989 and the official dissolution of 1991, both outside the Soviet Union and to some extent, officially, within it, was that the Revolution, in some sense, was still guiding the society, along with the Marxism-Leninism still published and taught everywhere (but in reality ignored and/or privately scorned).
In my own unpublished work of 1990, I said that Fukuyama was simplistic and wrong. No-one took any notice of course, because the book was never published, and anyway I was an unknown, completely obscure, whereas Fukuyama was (according to System blurbs and drones) a “respected scholar” etc. Yet I was right and he was wrong.
In fact, a few people do seem to have agreed with my view: “Authors like Ralf Dahrendorf argued in 1990 that the essay gave Fukuyama his 15 minutes of fame, which will be followed by a slide into obscurity.[14][15] “[Wikipedia]
The West has the same problem as had the Soviet Union: an inability to accept its own sclerosis.
The future is, perhaps ipso facto, unexpected. In 1928, the NSDAP got 2.6% of the national vote in Germany. Hitler was considered a joke by many both in Germany and outside. As he later said, “They were laughing at [me and National Socialism] but they are not laughing now!“
What about that 2.6% vote? In 1932, it became 33%, and then, in 1933, 44%. Hitler was Chancellor, unchallenged, and everything changed in Germany and in Europe.
Moving to the UK of 2020, there are parallels. The Coronavirus situation has been blown up out of all proportion, allowing the System (not only in the UK, but across the “West”) to attempt a “Reset” of the Western world. The political sphere in the UK has been frozen. People cannot gather, or even easily talk face to face.
Parliament is not in any real sense sitting; in fact Parliament has been sidelined, unable or unwilling to scrutinize new “laws”, laws passed not by Parliament, but rammed through as secondary legislation, using obscure statutes, and by a would-be despotic government headed by the biggest idiot of the lot, the part-Jew (ex?) public entertainer, Boris Johnson, aka Boris-idiot, sitting on his pediment (of a Conservative Party majority of 80).
In other words, Parliament may still exist but its useful life in its present form has ended. Not just the Commons: the House of Lords now has nearly 800 members. The quantity is a problem, but so is the quality. Boris-idiot has added 38 “peers” just recently. Our “legislators” now include cricketer “lord” Ian Botham, pseudo-intellectual “baroness” Claire Fox of the Brexit Party and the Revolutionary Communist Party (!), and many many other deadheads, such as the failed bra-designer “entrepreneuse”— and so many others that I do not choose to list them all.
What about the Monarchy? It is being held together as a once-respected institution by a public relations effort and by the fact that the Queen is still there. The Queen is a link with the past, with Britain as it was when it was 99% white, and when it however had a global empire etc.
There are efforts being put in to make the public believe that “King Charles III” (already nearly 72) and then “King William V” (now 38) will take the place of the present Queen. On paper, perhaps, but not in terms of mass psychology.
Of course we also have the lesser lights and hangers-on, such as the dim “cuck” Harry and his “Royal Mulatta”, entitled arrogant idiot and doormat for several Jews, Andrew, and theatrical am-drammer Edward; and their stupid spoiled offspring.
Then we have the other pillars of English life, on paper: the Bar, the “free” Press, the Church of England etc. All now facades, mere Potemkin villages.
Will this present society survive the coming years? I think not. True, there is at present little sign of upheaval in the UK, despite the above-mentioned matters, despite mass immigration (migration-invasion), despite Boris-idiot inviting 4 million Chinese to come to live here, despite everything. That may not be the last word, though.
Was there obvious sign of imminent political upheaval in the Germany of 1928? No. In fact, Germany seemed to have finally found stability both economically and politically by 1928. Then came the Wall Street Crash followed by the Great Depression.
Was there obvious sign of upheaval in the Russia of, say, 1916? Some, by reason of the war with the Central Powers, and the consequent poverty and general discontent. However, if you take it back to 1913, there was no such sign.
“Extremist” solutions to Britain’s problems may be unpopular in 2020; by 2022 or 2023, they may be the only ones that seem to make any sense.

Why does @ChtyCommission allow Zionist groups to ‘police’ UK citizens using tactics synonymous with The Cheka police. How long before ‘volunteers’ claim leather coats on expenses? Make no mistake #Chekism is alive and well just watch Joe Glasman’s video. https://t.co/zZvuGe5HWg

God, that horrible cruel ape! I have often thought that T.E. Lawrence, “Lawrence of Arabia”, has a lot to answer for. Had Lawrence not fanned the flames of Arab nationalism and indeed Saudi nationalism, the Western states, and in fact maybe even just the European empires, could easily have taken the oil of Arabia and the surrounding region for the use of the advanced part of the world, and without having to give vast sums to any of the Arabs. Most of the wealth of the Arabs has been squandered anyway, one way or the other.
I may dislike (and oppose) the Jews, speaking generally, but I despise most of the Arabs.
A thought out of season
Statistics show that the Chinese have, as a national group, the highest IQ in the world, higher even than Northern Europeans. It is true that some of their achievements, both ancient and modern, are hugely impressive, yet I have to say that (with the arguable exception of a nuclear scientist I once met in the USA), all those that I have met personally or observed have seemed to me to be dimwits. Maybe I have just been unfortunate.

Chris Bryant thinks we should all forget about Labour staffers helping throw the 2017 General Election. Bet he wishes everyone would forget about this, too… The £650,000 profit a Welsh MP made from selling flats you helped fund https://t.co/tiYSAsSSkY
That little bastard is up to everything: former near-top employee of Common Purpose (so supported by that conspiracy), doormat for the Jewish/Israel lobby (so always supported by “them”); also supported by the gay lobby. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Bryant#Personal_life.
The sort of careerist who would be an early casualty in any real reform of Westminster.
When *anyone* on our planet can count their hoarded wealth on the same scale as stars in our galaxy – in the 100s of billions – then something has gone profoundly wrong in the way our societies are organised https://t.co/e4nhflDyA6
Please sign and share! Ikea is the biggest wood consumer in the world, tearing through our forests at the rate of one tree per second! Cheap @Ikea chairs come at a deadly price for our forests. It's time to take action!https://t.co/YBsNkhvw02
No. I am against disproportionate State interference that deprives people of their civil liberties, prevents cancer treatments and life saving operations, eviscerates the economy, pushes people to suicide, increases domestic violence and generally puts the fear of God into people
And in the UK, Germany, Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Switzerland etc etc – The peak for deaths of people with the corona virus, in all these countries, was in April.
I know people who have had it. I am 68 with a dodgy BMI. I’m not especially bothered. I reckon I take a bigger risk every time I ride my bike. Nor do I think a loose damp cloth muzzle is going to make much diff to the minimal danger of my spreading it. @gruffythhttps://t.co/S7UJxAPWGy
I don't think it's right to demean either mask wearers or non-mask wearers – I just think we should be given the choice. Millions die each year from contagious respiratory diseases worldwide and yet, never before, have such draconian measures been introduced. Why?
Three words: the Great Reset; or if you prefer, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.
Sure, it *reduces* them(not much), just as never going outside (slightly)cuts your (rather small) chance of having a tortoise dropped on your head by an eagle. But does that justify never going outside again, or walking about dressed as a slave? Proportion's the thing, @some1hguy https://t.co/LrMj4wyaD0
