Diary Blog, 22 June 2025, including thoughts about London, and about the “entitled” attitude of the Americans

Morning music

London. England. UK.

“All these things happened to me in London today I paid nearly £30 for a train ticket to take me into London from a town just 30 miles away —on a Saturday

The first person I sat next to, I think from India, decided to have a FaceTime conversation with his friend on speakerphone so we all had to listen to it

The train was late by 40 minutes due to unexplained “signalling issues”. It was also filthy.

I paid nearly £8 for a pint

I offered a woman my seat on the tube without realising she was with a man who intervened and said “no man”. He was not from the UK. I think he took my gesture as an insult.

I was asked for money by homeless people 3 times in one day

I noticed several people who are paid to give information to taxpayers and tourists over the tannoy on the London Tube cannot speak English properly

A cabbie told me “London is dead most nights”, unless you are the global high net worth set or top 1%

Restaurants are visibly struggling and often hideously overpriced

I had dinner in a neighbourhood where the average rent is £3,663 per month while half of all local social housing has gone to people who were not even born in the UK

I was constantly aware I should not get my phone out on the street as 80,000 were stolen last year

I also read on the way back while checking that stat that there were 90,000 shoplifting offences in London last year, up 54%

My train back —delayed—was suddenly changed at the last minute with all passengers on board.

They were told it would no longer be stopping at all stops.

I bought a tin of instant coffee on the way home and it had a security tag on it

Maybe I’m in a bad mood and perhaps it’s amusing to think how somebody of my political outlook is “triggered” but to me there is a deeper point here

London is over —it’s so over

It’s a city in visible decline with deteriorating standards and no real sense of identity or belonging

Going in and out of our capital city is a truly miserable experience

Infrastructure is falling apart, as is the social contract

I’ve been coming in and out of London since 1981

I simply cannot remember a time when it’s been this visibly dire and when so many things just do not work as they should”

[Matt Goodwin]

That rather echoes a blog post I published almost exactly three years ago:

Of course, the migrant-invaders see nothing the matter with London as it now is, because where they come from is worse yet. They are from Bombay and Bangalore, the slums of teeming South Asian and East Asian cities, the ramshackle neighbourhoods of Lagos or Accra, or wherever.

Look at London’s Mayor, Sadiq Khan, a Muslim apostate carpetbagger in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist lobby. He himself is part of the problem, but only part.

I am very glad that I have not lived in London since 1998 (though I did live in Higher Denham, just outside London, for 6 months in 2001-2002, and worked at that time as international lawyer in London, both at Gray’s Inn, where I was leaseholder of a set of chambers, and just off Berkeley Square in Mayfair).

Ironically, my later disbarment (2016) was pronounced (by a superannuated former circuit judge chairing a 5-member panel) in the very same building where I had sat as notional “Head of Chambers” (it was actually an offshore set-up dealing with Russia, former Soviet Union, Caribbean, Brazil etc, not ordinary English Bar work), and leaseholder.

If I were to live in London today, I should probably have my Rolex watches stolen. In fact, I no longer have them anyway (sold many years ago for reasons of financial pressure, i.e. I needed the money!).

Even were I to hit the Euromillions lottery, and so be able to live in a Nash terrace at Regent’s Park, I doubt that I should bother.

“…Either way, suddenly alone in the centre of a city I no longer recognised, I couldn’t have felt more vulnerable.

I resolved to find a police officer, but despite walking up and down some of London’s busiest central areas – down Jermyn Street, along Piccadilly and over to Leicester Square – I saw none.

West End Central police station, which would have been a ten-minute walk away, had closed permanently in 2021 after being sold to developers for a reported £50 million. 

No wonder opportunistic crimes like these are on the rise when bobbies have all but abandoned their beats.

Giving up, I headed home, walking the three miles to my flat in Kensington because I had no cards with which to pay for a bus or taxi. 

Dazed and shattered, and with the pain in my leg only growing, I took a breather in Hyde Park to register the crime on my phone using the Met’s online form.

The next day I received a call to say that officers from Hammersmith police station would come to take a statement from me at 8am the following morning. 

But at the time they were due to arrive, they rang to say they couldn’t come because they couldn’t find an available police car.

Really? The station is barely a half-hour walk away. Disappointed, I had to make do with discussing it over the phone with the officer instead. Such muggings were, he said, ‘rife’ in the capital at the moment.

He asked if I wanted to take it any further and, honestly, I didn’t. The pointlessness of reporting a crime so long after the event is infuriating – it’s a tick-box exercise, nothing more. 

The chances of the police catching a gang with my vague description of their clothes and ethnicity must be almost nil.

Ultimately, pursuing a report would mean me enduring a bureaucratic hurdle – filling in more forms online, having more phone calls. And for what?

All of this could have been avoided if there were more police on our streets, which would serve as a deterrent to these thugs. It’s futile having a police force at all in London if they can’t adequately react to something like this.

[Daily Mail]

Actually, 90% or more of “all this” could also be avoided if London were a white English city…

Of course, what will happen is that the existing System parties will falter and fail, but Reform UK itself will become a System party in the end, if it looks like taking power. You can already see signs of that— the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby influence, the non-European candidates etc.

All the same, this is a great thing. The Overton Window is shifting, visibly. After Reform, there may emerge, may have to emerge, a genuinely social-national party or movement. However, the “Parliamentary road” is a limited option, because the English/British will soon be a minority in the UK.

Talking point

If anything, those predictions are conservative.

As I said 9 years ago, a squawking parrot in a golden cage, guarded by a phalanx of Zionist Jews…

Trump had the chance to take American in a new and better, and quasi-isolationist, direction. Now, the Deep State, largely under Jew/Zionist/Israeli control, has made Trump just the latest figurehead puppet for “intervention”, following Bush snr, Clinton, Bush jnr, “ex-tra-ord-in-ary” Obama (the one-time “great white black mixed-race hope”), and Biden.

I was also well ahead of Matt Goodwin on that…

(from over 6 years ago, and citing Daily Telegraph articles ).

Will Russia strike Israel? If so, where? Dimona? Ben-Gurion Airport? I doubt that that will happen, but it just might, now that the USA dog has been wagged (again) by the Jewish tail.

She forgot to add that Tugendhat is himself quarter-Jew: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Tugendhat#Early_life_and_education; also, a member of Conservative Friends of Israel.

The United States, even more than Israel, has an entitled “I can bomb you but don’t you bomb me” attitude. I well recall the scalded reaction in the USA when the World Trade Center attack happened in 2001. That only happened to other people (who, many Americans think, are scarcely people at all)…

I think that that attitude goes back at least to the Second World War, when the U.S. bombing campaign in Europe laid waste huge areas not only of Germany but of several other countries as well. At that time, there was no danger at all of any country retaliating against the U.S. mainland or its population. A feeling of invulnerability.

Farage is almost pathologically pro-Jewish lobby, and pro-Israel. That is my biggest black mark for Reform UK, and supports the theory that Reform is being lined-up to take over when the main System parties finally fall, which cannot be far off.

Ecce the Nigerian woman who will soon (next general election) be “leader” of a Conservative Party with as few as 10 MPs. I imagine, though, that her MPs will dump her by the end of this year.

The premium for being slavishly pro-Israel is not high when the leaders of “Labour” and Reform UK, maybe the LibDems too, are no different.

If so, it might have been better to say that the base was totally wiped out!

Were I the Iranian decision-maker, I should make that airport a really major priority target, along with the Dimona nuclear base. After that, central Tel Aviv.

[“The takeoff locations of the aircraft involved in the attack on nuclear facilities have been identified. The US must expect a regrettable reaction that exceeds its calculations. Having several US bases in the region is not a strength, but a vulnerability. Attacks on Israel will continue.”]

Hotels much the same. I was due to speak back in 1978 at the Clarendon Court Hotel, Little Venice. Jews connected with the pathetic Searchlight mag, now defunct, contacted the hotel management (the same kind of malicious harassment now undertaken by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” cabal). As a result, the Clarendon cancelled, and I had to pay out for a coach to bus people who arrived there to my new venue, a large room with a bar over a pub somewhere near the river, not far from Dolphin Square.

As to the Clarendon Court Hotel, which had once been a fairly good place (foreign Test cricket teams playing at quite-nearby Lord’s would stay there in the 1970s), the last time I saw it, around 1990 or so, it was full of…yes… “asylum-seekers”, East European Gypsies etc. Yes, that’s right…35 years ago! That crap did not start in 2024, or 2010, or even 1997.

Incidentally, the Clarendon once had an amusing notice outside, relating to its spa studio: “The Body Feminine— Entrance at Rear“!

Ah. Just looked it up. The building has evidently been extensively remodelled, and is selling as multi-million-pound apartments, like the rest of London (even the old SIS/MI6 building, Century House, at 100 Westminster Bridge Road, near Lambeth North underground, is now “luxury” apartments).

I also just saw this 1992 report about that hotel: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/231279.stm: the hotel was forced to pay £6,000 apiece —maybe £20,000 each in 2025 money— to some bloody Afghans and others “forced to endure cockroaches” (etc) there… Cockroaches. Well, that would certainly never have happened back in Afghanistan…

[“Unfollowing as many Jewish pundits today as I followed in support after 7/10. If you’re tweeting “Islamo leftie tears” you’re off your rocker & deeply offensive. It’s not even a left or right thing to object or agree with strikes on Iran and America barrelling in with 6 Enola Gays.

You’re also displaying Islamophobia whilst constantly bleating about anti-semitism. I’m no leftie, I was a Tory until I had enough of the crazy far-right lean and a succession of appalling leaders. I’m a Zionist, my 22 yo father helped liberate Belsen and still talked of it on his death-bed. I have a Star of David in my bio since 7/10 as a tiny gesture of support for Jews even though I’m C of E. What more do you want from people like me? What?! Your blind support of Israel no matter what, even as babies in Gaza are blown to bits and everyone starves is crackers. Enough.

You bring it entirely on yourselves. You actively goad & insult people on here. You insult the very people who believe in Israel and have always supported it just not when it goes mental which is very regularly under Netanyahu. Lots of Israelis hate him too. I have no time for the ghastly Hamas, Mullah, Houthi and Hezbollah fans who go on marches but dear god the Jews who back Trump & Netanyahu are a loud & aggressive disgrace. And when Eylon Levy talks of the Blitz or Dunkirk – it’s an insult.

You bombed Iran, you got bombed back, you seem to want all of us to be bombed, bugger off!“]

Ha. Brava!

I had thought that lady tweeter must be at least partly-Jewish. Seems that I was probably mistaken in thinking so.

She is talking, inter alia, about the kind of aggressive and malicious Zionist Jews prominent on Twitter etc, such as those connected with the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, Jews such as Gideon Falter, “Slitherman”, and “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, among other liars.

There I do disagree. The “British” Jews who are those, or most of those, being repatriated, are probably hard-core Zionists anyway. I have already blogged that, if they love Israel so much, let them hunker down with a pack of matzo biscuits, an Uzi, and a Desert Eagle, and fight. Why should they be rescued at all? If they are going to be, why should the British taxpayers subsidize them? Most probably have plenty of money, too.

Horrific, and on a Biblical scale. The (Israeli) Jews have done that, and others, in the USA, UK, France etc, support what the Israeli government has done and what it continues to do.

Lewis poses, increasingly without credibility, as an effective solicitor, but he has been making false accusations to police etc for *at least* 13 years: see

and

Others of the same type, such as Simon Myerson (Jew barrister who had to be removed as part-time judge because of his hate-filled tweets etc), Daily Star scribbler Adam Cailler, and others, had their sworn testimony disbelieved by a senior judge at Wilson’s successful libel trial. All members or supporters of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, and all liars and quite possibly perjurers.

Incidentally, the sworn testimony of the “CAA” Chairman, Gideon Falter, was also disbelieved by another judge and at another trial, years ago, the successful appeal of Foreign Office diplomat Rowan Laxton.

I have had, as many readers will know, my own problems over the past 12 years and arising from lying accusations made by Lewis, “Slitherman”, and some old Jewish “CAA” crones from North London.

No wonder one of the Ten Commandments brought down by Moses was “Thou shalt not bear false witness“— it is what “they” do.

Accurate… I spent 9 months in East Africa. It’s very hard to pinpoint exactly why it’s such a mess.

They have an infantile mentality and absolutely no commercial sense.

I once went about 10 miles down the road, in the middle of nowhere on the way to Lusaka, the capital of Zambia, and every 50 meters there was someone selling watermelon. I said to the driver, “Everyone is selling exactly the same product. Why don’t they try making watermelon juice or something different to stand out?” He replied, “But why would we do that? We like melon!”

That attitude was everywhere. In fact, I would sometimes meet Westerners who would say, “Isn’t it amazing how they’ve kept this piece of junk car going for 30 years?” And I’d reply, “It’s more amazing that we have automated car factories with robots.” They literally only focus on the immediate need. “Car not go today, car fixed with string and tape.

The only two factors preventing Britain and other European countries from retaking direct control of Africa, of all of Africa, are 1. socio-political will and 2. the fact that the (((globalists))) find it more convenient to exploit Africa’s resources via corrupt tiny “elites” in each fake African “state” (and to hell with the environment, the forests, the wildlife, and the African people themselves).

The fact is that European rule would benefit all, not least the ordinary Africans.

Incidentally, it would be a great deal easier than many imagine for Europe to reconquer Africa militarily. Only the two factors already noted make it at all hard.

Illiterate travel

I have just read this, https://www.standard.co.uk/lifestyle/travel/sarajevo-guide-balkans-bosnia-and-herzegovina-b1176081.html, a travel piece in what I still call the Evening Standard, and written by well-known columnist Suzanne Moore. Not hugely interesting anyway, but then absurdly badly-written. An essay by a 10-year-old, at best. Or is the sub-editing to blame? Maybe someone pushed a few of the wrong buttons. Extraordinary. Read it and see.

I have read other pieces by Suzanne Moore which were written properly, so maybe it was the fault of the Standard.

Pretty accurate summing-up of “Starmer-ism”, in my opinion, “Blairism without the good bits“, though I do not recall many good bits then either, speaking personally.

As far as assisted dying is concerned, I see it as a generally well-meaning attempt to be kind, which however, put into policy and law, is the start of a slide to, eventually, somewhere down the line, killing people for convenience or money.

HS2 was a vanity project that never should have been approved. As far as I know, though, the other rail projects are or were useful.

She seems to have difficulty identifying the “J” problem…

Again, look at the “usual suspects”…

The “fake history” of the 1970s

That’s because you, “Steve Zodiac”, are apparently telling your grandchildren a load of old hooey…

I have blogged in the past about how very many people (including, weirdly, many who were at least in their teens then, and so actually of an age to remember) say, and even perhaps believe, that the 1970s in the UK were some kind of dark age in which the electricity was off most of the time, in which bodies were left unburied by reason of industrial action, in which trains and buses rarely ran, in which rubbish piled up in the towns and cities, in which there was a “three day week” when offices and factories were closed for four days each week, and in which life was generally miserable (for example, food was terrible, they say).

The above-noted fabled dystopia was, we are told, the result of overreaching trade union power and Labour misgovernment.

Where to start?

First of all, the party in power for the first 4 years of the 1970s was the Conservative Party: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970_United_Kingdom_general_election, and of course Mrs Thatcher won again for the Conservatives in 1979: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1979_United_Kingdom_general_election.

In other words, out of the 10 years, Labour was in power for about 6 years. Labour government was in place from the early 1960s until mid-1970, then from early 1974 until mid-1979.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_1974_United_Kingdom_general_election; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_1974_United_Kingdom_general_election.

One interesting fact is that, in the 1966 General Election, the “two main parties” (Lab/Con) got exactly 98% of Commons seats on just under 90% of the popular vote: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1966_United_Kingdom_general_election#Results.

Compare to 2024: 81.8% of seats based on 57.4% of the popular vote.

In 1966, the winning party (Labour) got 48% of the popular vote, the losing Conservatives 41.9%.

In 2024, Labour got 33.7%, and the losing Conservatives only 23.7%.

The electoral system has become not just unfair but also illogical and ridiculous. It no longer reflects reality.

Reverting to the general situation in the 1970s, the much-talked-about “Three Day Week” only affected, directly, commercial operations (which were banned from using electricity on the other four days). The Three Day Week only lasted for two months. Out of 10 years (120 months).

I saw the Three Day Week firsthand. I was working, aged just 18, as supposed assistant manager in a very small commercial intelligence outfit based in the Strand (London). The office only had 5 people including me, though we did have a network of mostly ad-hoc agents all over the southern and eastern parts of England (anywhere south or southwest of The Wash). Much of the work was in Surrey, Sussex, Kent, Hampshire, Berkshire, Hertfordshire, Essex. The agents were often retired Army officers who, on being contacted, would —eagerly— say something such as “right-oh, old boy. I’ll fire up the Rover and get onto it.”

I must do a blog post sometime about it.

There were, in the early 1970s, strikes by coal miners etc, resulting in a few brief power cuts (“outages”, as the Americans say), but they lasted for a few hours a day, for a few days. Out of 10 years, again.

In the “Winter of Discontent” (1978-79), there were, for a few weeks, situations in some towns and cities whereby rubbish piled up, yes; that much of the “fable” is true, but only for a brief time. As for the “bodies left unburied“, that only applied in Liverpool and Manchester and only for 14 days: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_of_Discontent#Gravediggers’_strike.

In fact, though the 1970s had its problems political, social, economic, Britain still had possibilities. The population was still almost entirely white Northern European, new ideas and projects were around or developing (the Milton Keynes conurbation, the Open University, new express trains, cross-Channel hovercraft etc), and the absurd and damaging house-price madness, though it had started, was still in its early stages.

Britain still had a functioning Army, Navy, Air Force (etc), and a police force that mainly did its expected job and was not usually the sort of poundshop Stasi we now see, snooping on or “monitoring” the expression of views and opinions.

Incidentally, the food was OK back then on the whole. Slightly less cosmopolitan, yes, but in the South of England at least, foreign foods such as hummus, taramasalata, olives, Indian, Chinese, etc were ubiquitous. In fact, some food was better and more available back then.

What I find worrying is not only that people who were not there, or were small children, are convinced that England in 1970-1979 was a dark and gloomy place; more that people who were there seem to have substituted, for what actually happened, a kind of folk-tale.

As for Jewish-lobby puppet Robert Largan, who was parachuted into the constituency of High Peak (Derbyshire) and served as MP from GE 2019 to GE 2024, he was only born in 1987.

If people cannot recall accurately the 1970s, how much less accurate must be the “memories”, often publicized, of the 1930s and 1940s.

Rachel Reeves has no “plan”, just a tick-box idea of “balancing the books”. cf. David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne.

Look at what she herself has decided to do, along with her boss, fellow Labour Friends of Israel member Starmer.

Infrastructure investment slashed, which is the worst-possible choice (though some projects are useless, notably HS2). More money for the subsistence of unwanted migrant-invaders. Pensioners to lose a lifeline. No new hospitals. Yet pay rises of 22.3% (over 2 years) for junior hospital doctors most of whom are useless, and most if not all of whom will be on far higher levels of income within a few years of seniority.

That last reminded me of a major league baseball players’ strike when I lived in the USA over 30 years ago. The strike was bitter and crowned with success eventually. The demand was that all major league baseball players should get $100,000 a year minimum (I suppose you could at least double the value today). Not unreasonable, arguably, though it was several times the average pay of Americans as a whole. The joke was that only 1% of all major league baseball players at that time received pay of less than $100,000 anyway. Most were in the several hundreds of thousands a year, with a substantial minority getting over a million a year.

The “trans” nonsense has become utterly ridiculous. Having said that, women should not be boxing anyway.

Less than a month since GE 2024, and Starmer-Labour is already the “elected” dictatorship I predicted. I say “elected“, of course, because only 4 out of every 12 voters who voted, voted Labour (only 4 out of 20 of all eligible voters— 8 out of 20 did not vote at all).

We are not ruled by “Labour” or “Conservative” labels, but by NWO/ZOG puppets. There is no substantial difference between the “two main parties”.

…and there are “alternative” NWO/ZOG puppets, less important ones, too: “Tommy Robinson”, Reform UK, Farage, Tice etc.

“Zelensky: We will discuss the issue of Ukraine’s borders with the respective countries.

PROMISED TO DEVELOP A “PEACE ESTABLISHMENT PLAN” BY THE END OF NOVEMBER

Kyiv-based political scientist Andrei ZOLOTARYOV believes that Zelensky is “preparing to sell the truce to the Ukrainians as a victory.”

Washington Post: Armed forces of Ukraine exhausted, a critical situation is emerging for the Ukrainian army on the front with elements of “serious chaos”.”

Surely, if the Kiev-regime forces are exhausted, this is the moment for a general advance of Russian armour and infantry across eastern Ukraine, not for a truce, from the Russian point of view?

The US allowed the use of nuclear weapons because of Ukraine The United States may use nuclear weapons because of the desperate situation in Ukraine, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern said in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue works. “The situation in Ukraine now is that the Russians have virtually defeated Ukraine, and so the United States has a choice between a humiliating defeat and perhaps dropping one of these low-yield nuclear weapons,” he said.

If the USA uses nuclear weapons on Russian forces, it can kiss goodbye to the top 50 American cities, including Washington DC, New York, LA, Philadelphia, Houston, Denver, Chicago, San Francisco, San Diego, and Boston.

Don’t instigate nuclear war. It could put humanity back thousands of years.

As said several times before on the blog:

It is not, for me, a question of “hating” non-whites, but of providing a platform for the evolution of consciousness, for the eventual development of what might be called a “super-race”, in the sense of a people whose capacities would be seen by us, today, as “superhuman”.

Only the European people, speaking ethnically, can provide that platform and foundation for the later development. That is why we must oppose importation of non-whites into Europe, not because we “hate” them as such but because, primarily, their presence in Europe makes more likely a mixed-race population, which would make further evolution impossible.”

I have blogged many times about these questions (to read my posts, search, via the search box on the blog, for “social-national communities” and/or “safe zones” and/or “prepping”).

In 1932, Australia Started an ‘Emu War’—And Lost It sounds like a joke, but the Great #EmuWar of Western Australia was real. Soldiers with #machineguns were deployed to fight off the flightless birds. What did the emus do to deserve armed combat?

Western Australian farmers had been facing hard times with their crops following the Great #Depression, and their difficulties increased tenfold with the arrival of some 20,000 emus migrating inland during their breeding season. The birds had been protected as a native species until 1922, but now that they were classified as “vermin,” all bets were off.

The farmers relayed their concerns to the government, which called upon a deputation of ex-soldiers—many now farmers—from the first #WorldWar, who requested the use of machine guns to fight off the emus.

The battle began in early November 1932, when the soldiers encountered a lock of about 50 emus and succeeded in killing several before the birds scattered. A few days later, however, a second encounter with about 1,000 birds turned into clear victory for the emus when a machine gun jammed.

The Australian media quickly came to see the enormous birds as foes too crafty for mere human #Soldiers . Even a newsreel from the era prematurely announcing a human victory describes the tall, long-necked birds as “an advancing army with keen eyesight…the enemy watching event through their periscopes raised up over heads of corn.”

The Emu War was summarized thusly by Australian ornithologist D.L. Serventy: “The machine-gunners’ dreams of point blank fire into serried masses of Emus were soon dissipated. The Emu command had evidently ordered guerrilla tactics, and its unwieldy army soon split up into innumerable small units that made use of the military equipment uneconomic. A crestfallen field force therefore withdrew from the combat area after about a month.”

The human soldiers fired their Lewis guns with vigor, but it was the emus that came out victorious in the Great Emu War of 1932. The birds remain plentiful in the areas outside of Perth to this day, and their triumph may be destined for the big screen. As of 2021, an action-comedy film inspired by this unexpected chapter in Australian #HistoryOfViolence was in the works.

Very interesting and bizarre. Despite having spent a few years at school in Australia in the late 1960s, I had never heard of the Great Emu War.

Amazing what people will do if panicked, even if panicked by something that is not much of a threat (cf. the great “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic).

A frankly frightening face. Worse than a gargoyle’s. Totally crazed. I hope that she does not become U.S. President. If she does, the world war that already looks far too close may finally arrive.

A complete puppet for Israel and the American Jewish lobby, of course.

Only those who have no real desire for money can be — and then only prima facie— trusted. I do not say those without need for money; that is a given on this Earth— even Jesus Christ said that man cannot live by bread alone, thus implying that one does need bread in order to live at all.

I wonder from (((where))) that unit will get its ideas and strategy?

A great technical achievement, of course, but even as a teenager and young adult in the 1970s (Concorde was big news from the 1960s onwards, but only entered commercial scheduled service in 1977) I could not see the fairness of the British taxpayer paying out large amounts so that an aircraft could be developed and built, and then put into service, where the only passengers would be wealthy or very wealthy persons who in practice were being subsidized by those same poorer taxpayers who themselves would never be able to fly on Concorde.

First they had Concorde, then HS2…

The initial idea was that 350 examples would be built. In the end, only 20 were (plus 6 non-commercial planes).

An old schoolfriend of mine who lived in the Thames Valley had an inherited house over which, in 1977/1978, the Concorde would roar daily en route to New York; in the late afternoon or early evening. I saw it from his garden once or twice. I suppose that, therefore, I got more from its existence than most of those whose taxes paid for the plane.

Ukraine will never join the EU. Ukraine will never join NATO.

RAUS!

Of course, Rule Britannia is rather a parody, the way things are going in the UK, but it is for us, the echt-British, to decide whether or not it will be played…

Pity that tweeter David Atherton throws in “defeating Hitler“, as if that was something positive, rather than absolutely disastrous not only for Europe but for much of the world.

The devastating defeat of the German Reich triggered premature decolonization, with all the negative consequences in Africa and Asia that flowed from that— wars, civil wars, banditry, environmental degradation, extinction of species etc.

In addition, the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel in 1948 created the continuing problem which now threatens to develop into another world war. Also, the embedding of Jewish/Zionist power and influence in the Anglophone countries, France etc.

The defeat of the German Reich in 1945 also meant that Stalinist and post-Stalinist rule was imposed upon much of Central and Eastern Europe for over 40 years.

Had there been peace in Western Europe in 1939-40, or an armistice in 1940 between the German Reich and the British Empire, the Soviet Union would have fallen in 1941 or 1942, thus eliminating Soviet socialism at a stroke. So no devastation of Central Europe in 1944-45, no Soviet expansionism, no Cold War, no Korean War, no Vietnam War etc. Also, possibly, no Communist rule over China (and South-East Asia, and Korea).

This latest controversy does not stand alone; neither has it come out of nowhere. “The Great Replacement”. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

“They” are engaged in such activities worldwide. You only have to look at my situation, now facing magistrates’ court sentencing for having published the truth on this blog, and facing that challenge after a totally-contrived and totally political plot/conspiracy— lasting over 7 years— by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, during which seven years the police, Crown Prosecution and even Director of Public Prosecutions have been bombarded by whining and/or demanding communications from the small cabal of Jews who comprise the tiny (but well-funded) “CAA”.

The same “CAA” Jews have, in the UK and elsewhere, and over the past decade, tried to “cancel” Al Jazeera TV, David Icke, singer Roger Waters, and a plethora of other TV, radio and Press personalities, as well as a large number of less well-known persons. Their methods include malicious and false complaints to police, professional regulators, and others.

True, but Goodwin is now parroting pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, propaganda and views. Nein danke!

Superficially positive, but I wonder to what extent that poll reflects the fact that the blacks and browns are breeding prolifically in the UK, but the real (white Northern European) British inhabitants of the UK are not even reproducing their numbers.

In other words, the population of 16-24 year-olds is simply less white, less European, than older generations. The proportion of (among others) Muslims in that age group may be (is) far higher. Demographic shift.

The question reminds me of the Brexit Referendum, when the Remain side was terribly proud of the (apparent) fact that “the more educated” voters favoured Remain. In reality, that was a mirage. A far higher proportion of younger people have attended some kind of supposed “Uni”, but the older generations simply had a smaller proportion of people attending universities, usually for financial reasons, and because universities were fewer in number. Many of the new “universities”, are “McUniversities”, conferring “McDegrees”…

Goodwin writes a good deal of sense, but no-one British who does not oppose Jew-Zionism (as well) can be respected.

Brilliant, and very true.

The Conservative Party Conference 2023. Hard to believe, for anyone who remembers the same convention in the 1970s, 1980s, even 1990s.

Do they support those areas having high fences around them?…

Out of 5 or 6 polling organizations, the highest Labour mark at present is 47%, the lowest 43%; the highest Con mark is 30%, the lowest 24%. LibDems are in the 9%-13% area.

Those figures could give a Labour Party majority of anywhere between 120 and 322 seats, according to Electoral Calculus: see https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

One usually expects a narrowing of the polls prior to a General Election, and there is still maybe as long as 14 months to go before the 2024 General Election, but there is no sign of Con Party revival so far. In fact, the empty conference hall at Manchester is symbolic of what is happening in the country. Even dyed-in-the-wool Conservative voters are deserting, I believe. They are not going to Labour, most of them, but are either going to protest-vote via Reform Party or the LibDems, or simply abstain.

As for Con Party MPs, many are deserting the sinking ship. There is no unity. Even Suella Braverman’s attempt to capture the populist vote has foundered. Useless former Home Secretary (and Israeli agent of influence) Priti Patel has criticized Suella Braverman, as has the Indian money-juggler himself (Sunak).

At the moment, it looks as if Labour will win a huge victory by default. That might change, but how?

Traitors to Europe’s future dance with enemy invaders. I know what I would do to them.

…and see how many passers-by ignore the degeneracy. Brainwashed. Supine.

There was once a time when being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes was a death sentence. The ancient Egyptians first described the disease more than 3,000 years ago. During the many centuries that followed, parents would helplessly watch as their diabetic children slipped into comas and died.

By the 18th century, doctors discovered that a heavily modified diet could slow the disease. Many children were placed on starvation diets with limited carbs, which helped prolong their lives. However, such treatments were not very effective, and some children even starved to death. Fast forward to 1922, when a group of scientists went to the Toronto General Hospital, where diabetic children were kept in wards, often 50 or more at a time. Most of them were comatose and dying from diabetes. These children were in their deathbeds.

The scientists moved swiftly and proceeded to inject each of them with a new purified extract of insulin that they were able to successfully isolate. As they began to inject the last comatose child, the first one that was injected began to wake up. Soon, all the children in the room began to wake up—one by one!

The scientists responsible for saving the children’s lives were Frederick Banting and Charles Best. They both agreed that it would be unethical to profit from a discovery that could potentially save millions of lives. They sold the insulin patent to the University of Toronto for $1. “Insulin belongs to the world, not me,” said Banting.

Not only talented but also extremely altruistic.

I have to admit that, were I in their position, I might have kept the patent for my lifetime, and used the proceeds for my own humanitarian and conservation projects. They decided otherwise, as did another brilliant person, Tim Berners-Lee, the main force behind the World Wide Web.

HS2 should never have been approved. There were and are so many better uses for funding on that scale, even within the transport sector itself.

“Ukraine” of the Kiev regime has long been a “failed state”; now it is not really a state at all.


Russia cannot lose this war, strategically.

The same or a similar social crisis as across Eurasia. The Japanese and others (including the UK) need to put in place social programmes to ensure that suitable young women reproduce (while the State reduces, steadily, immigrant infiltration). #Lebensborn.

Ben Wallace, a washed-up one-time Guards officer (whose highest rank was Captain), and who is now politically washed-up as well (he ceases to be an MP soon, before the next General Election in 2024) has nothing to add of value.

If the police, prosecutors, and courts behave like enemies, then they are enemies.

I say the same (“very or fairly bad”) about all of those categories, except the buses and the fire service, where I should have to answer “don’t know“.

Gordon Brown— a totally useless pseudo-democratic political drone. As Prime Minister, he understood nothing about either politics or (real) economics. Superficial erudition covering utter ignorance of almost everything.

Listen to the idiot, saying in one sentence that he is not in favour of censorship but that “these people” (GB News) have to be kept off the air. When did he say that about vulgar pests such as Jo Brand or, say, the Jewish “comedians”, such as David Baddiel? Never, as far as I know.

Of course, GB News is mainly “controlled opposition” (OFCOM would never allow me to have a TV show, for example), but “all roads lead to Rome”…

Zoo. Worse than a zoo, in fact.

Corbyn has no idea. He stood up quite well (though half-heartedly) to the Jew-Zionist element for a few years, but is otherwise politically disastrous.

Short answer to tweeter “Norfolk Forever”— Yes. Google “Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan“.

Just think of what’s happened on channels like the BBC and Channel 4.

In 2019 Jo Brand joked about throwing acid over Nigel Farage on the BBC – No further action.

In 2020 Sophie Dukes joked about killing white people on Frankie Boyle’s New World Order – No further action.

In 2020 Miriam Margolyes said she wanted Boris Johnson to die on live TV while he was seriously ill with COVID – No further action.

Did the same people calling for GB News to be shut down call for the BBC and Channel 4 to be shut down? Of course they didn’t. The double standards are utterly staggering.”

I covered the Jo Brand scandal thus: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/06/16/__trashed/.

Regular readers will know that I myself currently face trial by the State (at the instigation of a pack of Jew-Zionists). I cannot blog about that prior to said trial (for reasons to do with potential contempt of court) but the above tweet makes the point for me.

My final thoughts, before I move on. As we have a busy day helping a girl who misgendered another student, by refusing to call her a cat. I know. Welcome to 2023. People are entitled to have a view on what I said and that is fine by me. Whilst a bit crass, it certainly didn’t merit the mega media storm which has resulted. Especially given the genuinely appalling things said on TV which pass without comment. The woman on the BBC saying she wanted to kill all white people. And countless other examples. I have been saying to GB news for months that they should stand up for themselves more against these unending attacks. Instead they panicked. Trying to appease an enemy, who will not stop until they shut down. Namely @Ofcom. A regulator created to ensure the state narrative is persistently and regularly hammered into every home.

As it happens, I am the catalyst for the great takedown to begin, which on reflection is a cause of sadness and regret, but if it hadn’t been me, it would have been one of the desperate presenters currently joining in the pile on, not realising that it’s just a crocodile eating itself, and not long from now, many of them will be out of a television job, or so shackled and censored, that any whiff of authenticity is gone. Like a nodding dog on a car dashboard. And about as relevant.

The United Kingdom is run by one political party, pretending to be two, by wearing different coloured rosettes, with the same freedom sapping policies and controlling agendas.

That is why you are seeing every show on regime TV discussing this affair, and both sides of the uni party calling in unison for an end to the insurgent channel. The uni party need Izvestia to spout their narrative.

Where GB news have erred is by forgetting why they came into existence in the first place. Calling themselves the “home of free speech” is a simple principle to protect. They could have easily said “whilst we find Laurence Foxes comments appalling and they aren’t representative of our views, we respect and uphold the fundamental right of free speech.”

This would have provided at least some defence and given time and opportunity to rally public support and fight back. Instead they went on the defensive. I still haven’t heard a word from them, and am waiting for the chop on Friday at my disciplinary hearing.

Such is life. I own my mistakes and take full responsibility for them. The major problem for them is now they are not the home of free speech at all. They are the exact opposite. They will cancel just as readily, if not more so, than the rest just to try and stay alive, and they have opened themselves up to an unending, brutal and sustained attack from the regime and their media lapdogs. In trying to appease the mob, they have emboldened it. Which is why you never apologise to the mob.

I have worked hard to put across different stories, like the case of ST, which most of the propaganda media have ignored. I have enjoyed the lovely responses I get from the public for doing so. So it is a shame I feel for everyone that GB fell straight into the trap set for them. I feel even sadder, and pissed off at myself, that I allowed myself to be the bait for that trap by trying to make a serious point in a jokey and lighthearted way.

Now I must rebuild. I’ve done it before and I will do it again. I have two kids to feed and clothe after all.

On a final note, we should all ask ourselves if this is a society we want to live in, where the cancel mob reign and your only chance at existence is total and utter capitulation to their whims.

My own upcoming trial (for allegedly having posted a handful of comments and cartoons on my blog) is yet another example of the encroaching police state.

Professor Curtice, eminent and erudite psephologist though he is, cannot see the wood for the trees.

In the world of the Professor, there are parties A, B, C, D, and the game is to accurately predict how those parties will do competing against each other in a structured contest in which all parties of importance are saying variations of the same thing.

In the real Britain, however, there is migration-invasion on a vast scale, our society is being trashed, almost everything is slowly seizing up and ceasing to work properly —or at all— and standards in all areas are sliding.

“Left/Right” means nothing but, otherwise, that tweet is correct. Adam Boulton is a System drone, like so many others. Applauds the forced closure of the RT television station, and wants GB News to be shut as well. Freedom of expression, free speech etc mean nothing to these propagandists, who are akin to Soviet media broadcasters.

The System media in the UK promoted the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, has never seriously challenged the mass immigration into this country, nor examined the results of Jewish immigration into the UK in the 19th and 20th centuries.

The System drones and propagandists are all piling in to bury even the semblance of free speech. Here is BBC (also ITN, Channel 4 etc) drone Michael Crick:

These types are no different at root from Soviet media enforcers and sell-outs. They cannot wait for Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer and his post-Blairite know-nothing MPs to form a quasi-dictatorial government, to really shut down freedom of expression using the Online Safety Bill expected to become law soon.

When you see Adam Boulton, Kay Burley, Tom Bradby, Newsnight presenters etc, you are not seeing people who live as slightly more affluent members of the public, but people paid literally millions of pounds per year. They are shackled to the System, afraid to lose their pay and privileges.

As a matter of fact, you find that most of these prominent media faces also have personal and family links with System politicians or those who work in TV current affairs. Examples:

Boulton divorced his first wife, The Hon. Kerena Anne Boulton, after his affair with Tony Blair‘s spin doctor Anji Hunter became front page tabloid news in 2002.” [Wikipedia];

Crick lives in Wandsworth,[33] South London, with his partner Lucy Hetherington, an executive TV producer who has managed documentaries and current affairs programmes. She is the daughter of former Guardian editor Alastair Hetherington.” [Wikipedia].

Furious locals gathered outside a three-star hotel which is set to close in order to house asylum seekers in a move that will cancel hundreds of events as a result, including one woman’s 26th birthday party.

Dozens of residents holding placards arrived at Chichester Park Hotel in Chichester, West Sussex on Sunday afternoon claiming they had ‘no say’ in the decision.

Many of those at the protest said celebratory events had been cancelled after the sudden announcement that the hotel, which is said to be a ‘big part of the community’, will close tomorrow.

It comes as the Home Office said small-boat migrants must be booked into hotels of at least three-star quality with cost of housing rising to £8 million a day.

[Daily Mail].

These incidents are now happening all over the country— local people not only losing out, having hotels turned into hostels for migrant-invaders, and having their communities trashed in that way, but also seeing the prospect of large numbers of black/brown invaders making those communities permanently unsafe and, indeed, ruined.

Further, this is only the start. Million upon million migrant invaders are now invading white Europe every year. The EU is not blocking them, or even corralling them once they land, but actively encouraging them.

The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan. Google it.

We are looking at the complete collapse of, inter alia, British society, not far down the line.

I saw a newspaper reader’s comment which said something like “I was born in a First World country [the UK], and now live in a country transitioning into a Third World country [the UK].”

Simplistic, maybe, and I never much liked the First/Second/Third World concept(s), but that reader has got it, in essence.

Our troops have already broken through Ukrainian defenses east of Kupyansk and near Kremena. The task is not easy, but quite doable.

“The US government has banned Tucker Carlson from interviewing Vladimir Putin. “You know, I tried to interview Putin, and the American government stopped me. What, we can’t hear Putin’s voice?! Why? Nobody voted on this issue,” Carlson said in an interview with the Swiss magazine Die Weltwoche.

He emphasized that the American authorities have been controlling all media for several decades, and citizens do not know the true state of affairs.”

Government should not, in general, run businesses; however, the exceptions make the rule. “Strategic” areas of the economy which are also “strategic” parts of society generally should be run directly by the State: large-scale electrical generation and distribution, gas supply, water supply, trains, roads.

Everything else, pretty much, can be in private hands but still State-regulated for public health and safety etc.

There is a general attack on freedom of expression in the UK at present. The Zionist organizations are the main poisonous part of that.

As for that unpleasant-looking fat blonde woman MP applauding Jewish-Zionist “anti-fascist” organizations in the above clip, she may well be appointed as a Minister of State in charge of many aspects of digital regulation if Starmer-Labour becomes the Government next year: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Davies-Jones.

Imagine spending all those tens of billions (billions, not millions) merely so that a small part of the population could go between London and Birmingham about 20 minutes faster…and now it looks as if the trains will not even to to Central London, and that the journey may actually take longer than the present express rail journey. Madness.

When I look at policy in the UK, I mean policy across the board, “madness” is the word that always comes to mind. Poor or silly ideas, poor or even irrational decision-making, and hopelessly inept execution or implementation.

Starmer is a faceless drone, and a complete puppet of the Jewish-Zionist lobby, and of Israel. Married to a Jewish woman property lawyer, and their children being brought up as if fully-Jewish, complete with all the rituals.

My impression of Starmer, apart from the above, is that he is one of those “suited thugs” not uncommon in the House of Commons over the past 20 years.

Starmer’s voice, when not carefully restrained for TV interviews, is shrill, threatening, like that of a far nastier version of “Frank Spencer” [https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/who-is-frank-spencer/].

Peter Oborne’s piece above is well worth watching, and hearing.

The only criticism I would advance of Oborne’s view in that piece, to the effect that Britain must try to get back to the postwar 1950s/1960s “one nation” idea, is that that cannot now happen. Why not? Because Britain is no longer a nation, but more like a geographic space inhabited by various tribes and conditions of people that have few aspects or qualities in common, and fewer aspirations.

In the late 19thC, and then again in the 1930s, particularly, Britain naively allowed some cuckoos to enter its nest. Massive mistake.

There should be an institute for both the study of history and also for the study of how to create the basis for a more advanced human type; the evolution of consciousness as well as the higher evolution of race-types. Similar to the 1933-1945 SS-Ahnenerbe, but with more of an orientation to the future.

Nature’s holy religion.

Talking point

You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your
fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who
have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the
past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon
the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in
which their bodies have long decayed.

Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can
change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has
inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will
and courage.

You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass
your blood on to your children, for you are a member of
the chain of generations that reaches from the past into
eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent
must do its part so that the chain is never broken.

But if your blood has traits that will make your children
unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the
heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will
lives.”

Unusual for me to repost anything from smug “Conservative” greaseball Fraser Nelson, but “truth conquers all”…

As if Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer even wants to “fix the problem“… he is part of that problem. System party leaders are all signed-up to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan— creation of a mixed-race population over time, to be ruled by a thin stratum of Jews and Europeans, the latter mostly not fully-European but of partly Jewish background (like David Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris” Johnson etc) and/or with Jewish wives (like Starmer).

Even leaving that aside, Starmer knows that he will not lose votes at the 2024 General Election if he claims to “have a cunning plan” to “solve” the migration (invasion) crisis; and that is so even if his “cunning plan” is completely unworkable or does not in reality even exist. Unless, of course, the voters see through the lie.

That 2024 election would be the moment when a truly social-national party could and perhaps would break through into the major political league. Sadly, though, such a party does not exist.

I agree (and refer to the quotation from Lenin hereinabove…).

(and again refer to the quotation from Lenin hereinabove…).

Yes, a small area of one city in one country, but this did not exist at all, say 50 years ago. A warning from the future, and not only for the USA.

I recall hearing something on the radio in England in, I think, 1970, to the effect that London had a serious problem with heroin addiction; it had several hundred registered addicts, compared to about 50 in 1965. Now look! Millions of drug-abusers. Drug sodden council estates, but also the affluent msm rabble contaminated with drugs of various kinds; even MPs, indeed even Cabinet ministers (that little bastard Gove is far from the only one).

HS2

I opposed HS2 from the beginning. Why? Because first of all, HS2 was misconceived. High-speed rail is OK for countries which are very elongated and/or very large; it suits or would suit countries such as Chile, Japan, Russia, China, Australia, the USA, Canada, and even France (which after all is 2.5x the size of the UK and has important cities in all four “corners”, so to speak; indeed, in all directions.

The UK is only elongated and long if you go from, say Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands, or at least London to the major cities of Scotland. London-Edinburgh is about 400 miles (compare that to London-Penzance: about 300 miles). London to Inverness is over 550 miles.

In other words, HS2 only makes any sense at all if it goes either to Cornwall or Scotland. However, neither of those routes are being proceeded with.

The route London-Leeds was also axed. Now, it seems that even the section Birmingham-Manchester may be abandoned. That would leave only London-Birmingham, which would take 52 minutes instead of 1 hour 21 minutes on the present fastest trains. In other words, a saving of only 29 minutes. Passengers will also, for a long time, have to go to Old Oak Common in NW London in order to catch the train.

I also opposed —and still oppose— HS2 on environmental grounds: destruction of ancient woodland etc.

A further reason to oppose HS2 is that the money expended could have been deployed to improving the existing rail network, or extending it.

Finally, I have a problem with (in effect) the whole country being taxed in order that a tiny minority can travel faster. I felt the same about Concorde, despite its technical achievements.

HS2 is a massive fiasco on the scale of projects such as the Groundnut Scheme [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanganyika_groundnut_scheme], in fact far worse; far more expensive, and hugely destructive as well.

Sooner or later, the Ukrainian armed forces will certainly go on the defensive.” As soon as they do that, immediately expect our counterattack. It is always done this way: on the first day, it is checked whether the defensiveness is not just a ruse. If it is determined that it is not – on the second day, the “plowing” of enemy positions with artillery and rockets begins.

On the third day, the counter-attack takes place” “A counterattack at the operational level will have to be carried out by our fresh forces from the operational reserve.” Their task will be to return the territories that the Ukrainians “grabbed” from us during their raid last fall. Then we will start our offensive operations, which will gradually develop into a full-blooded offensive.”

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-12350543/ANDREW-NEIL-want-rejoin-EU-citizens-Americas-poorest-states-earn-French-Italians-afford-pasta.html.

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.

Beware of what newspaper scribblers tell you.

More “trans” nonsense.

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.

See my blog from yesterday.

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/.

Kemi Badenoch

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12352855/Kemi-Badenoch-leadership-ambition-rumours-swirl-campaign-make-Tory-leader-revived.html

Speculation about Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch‘s ambitions was gathering pace last night after a campaign to make her leader of the Tory party was revived.

The Backingbadenoch.co.uk website was quietly updated a few weeks ago, as were the corresponding Twitter and Facebook accounts.

[Daily Mail]

The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan in action. White people, despite still constituting 80% of the UK population, simply squeezed out everywhere, from TV ads and dramas to 10 Downing Street.

“Although a British citizen and born in the UK, Badenoch stated that she was “to all intents and purposes a first-generation immigrant” during her parliamentary maiden speech.

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.
