Talking point

I notice that one of my very early blog posts, from 2017, has had a few hits. I just re-read it; perhaps worth republishing it today:

Saturday quiz

Well, an unusual week, in which political journalist John Rentoul did better than me. Rentoul scored 4/10, but my very disappointing result was a mere 2/10. I knew the answers to questions 4 and 6.

Disagree. Yes, Reform is underwhelming, and the Greens are indeed loonie, but the existing System parties deserve to be smashed and destroyed. Until they are, nothing better can emerge.

Local elections in the UK are yet another System stitch-up, deliberately staggered in different years so that each System party is likely to get a piece of the pie, continuously.

All elections, national and local, should be held on the same day and in the same month and year.

Incidentally, that would mean that all elected authorities, and central government, would be on the same page.

The Jewish-lobby influence on and in Reform weakens it hugely, and will (as probably is the plan anyway), eventually kill it whether it gets into government or not.

1945 was a year of disaster, and was followed by the also-disastrous year 1948, when the Jewish state of Israel was established, and the land of Palestine partly “ethnically-cleansed” and then repopulated by the sweepings of the ghettos, prisons, and labour camps of old Europe.

Tim Stanley is one example of a type of person that has come to prominence over recent decades: usually a so-so minor academic, with System party (usually Con Party) connections, always scribbling rubbish in the Daily Mail, Daily Telegraph or Spectator etc, and/or being an msm TV/radio talking-head. Also, almost invariably pro-Jewish lobby and pro-Israel.

Douglas Murray is another one.

Slightly further back in time there was Andrew Roberts (now elevated to the House of Lords, thanks to “Boris”-idiot). His father owned Job’s Dairy and the UK part of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

I am unsure as to whether I agree with her first point, but Seldon is certainly erudite, and surely correct in his highlighted contention(s).

The General’s first assertion is right, the second not quite right. The UK must leave NATO, cultivate friendly though independent relations with Russia (which really wants that from us), and stand with Russia and all true Europeans against Islamism, Zionism, and non-European migration-invasion.

Russia will give us cost-price fuel, maybe even free fuel, and will provide a massive market for British goods, services, and expertise.

Those people should be on our side, and really want to be on our side.

Well worth reading.

The panicdemic/scamdemic and the associated supposed “vaccines” are, combined, so big a lie, so great a scandal, that even now many people cannot accept the truth; the same applies to the associated stupidities—facemask-muzzling, “social distancing”, “the Rule of Six” (that absurdity only seen in England, and invented by “Boris”-idiot and little Matt Hancock) etc. The same goes for the ongoing economic consequences of the overall scam.

Even now, you still see the occasional loonie or idiot, usually middle-aged or elderly, wearing a facemask. I saw one today in a supermarket. I am sure that her health is hugely improved by wearing some ancient, filthy bit of cloth over her mouth and nose for years…

That loonie looked a bit like the one in the first cartoon below:

Er, no. NO. NO!

The “first small boat since [etc]” has NOT arrived in the UK. Use your eyes, “Politics UK”.

The migrant-invaders have just been ferried in by the Border Force (Border Farce). This is a deliberate and planned conspiracy to flood the UK and other countries with non-Europeans. Google “Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan” (though Jews and others have vandalized the Wikipedia article).

There comes a time when fair liberty becomes ugly licence, when “diversity” becomes the swamping of a culture, when reasonable tolerance becomes weak acceptance of wickedness and evil, and when “decency” no longer has meaning.

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

[Matthew 7:6]

Starmer cannot see what is staring more and more people in the face about the state of this country and its direction of travel (straight down); he is also entirely without self-consciousness, even by System-drone political standards. He’s going down, and Labour will go down with him (or without him).

I have always tried to be fair to the former Prince Charles, now King, but he recently agreed to become a patron of the “Community Security Trust” [“CST”], the Jew-Zionist snoop-and-strongarm organization.

As far as I am concerned, Charles has cancelled himself.

Incidentally, I should not be surprised to see Trump pardon Ghislaine Maxwell at the end of his term of office. The Israelis may “request” it, covertly of course.

Translates to a Commons with about 360 Reform MPs (very solid majority), 63 LibDems (extremely weak official Opposition), 62 Greens, 48 Lab, 45 Cons, 44 SNP [etc].

You can see why the Jew/Zionist/Israel lobby has been scrabbling to influence or take over Reform UK— they think, with reason, that Reform will probably form the next government, maybe self-standing, maybe with Con support; of course, on the figures shown above, Reform would need no support.

Incidentally, once again (as shown in all recent polls, for several months) Starmer-stein would lose his own seat.

Very nice idea (but you do occasionally see that in the UK as well).

That tweeter “@ShaneDollards” has it right: yes, most voters despise and distrust Starmer-stein, but they also despise and indeed hate Labour itself (and, not much less, the fake “Conservatives”). Labour MPs should read the room…and the polls.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul. 6/10 as against Rentoul’s 3/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, 5, and 6.

New research suggests that the majority of the world’s modern Jewish population is descended mainly from people from ancient Turkey, rather than predominantly from elsewhere in the Middle East.

The new research suggests that most of the Jewish population of northern and eastern Europe – normally known as Ashkenazic Jews – are the descendants of Greeks, Iranians and others who colonized what is now northern Turkey more than 2000 years ago and were then converted to Judaism, probably in the first few centuries AD by Jews from Persia. At that stage, the Persian Empire was home to the world’s largest Jewish communities.

According to research carried out by the geneticist, Dr Eran Elhaik of the University of Sheffield, over 90 per cent of Ashkenazic ancestors come from that converted partially Greek-originating ancient community in north-east Turkey.”

[The Independent]

Explodes the very notion that modern-day Jews have any right at all to the lands of Palestine by reason of ancient occupation. They’re fakes.

but if Ian Leslie [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Leslie_(writer)] is so very clever, how is it that he and —apparently— John Rentoul think that Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper etc are “basically decent“?

Members of Labour Friends of Israel, expenses cheats and freeloaders, buy-to-let parasites, and general moneygrubbers, who want to institute a police state of a dystopian kind (prison time for free speech; encouragement of mass immigration and migration-invasion; enforced weight-loss injections as a condition for getting unemployment or disability benefits; euthanasia; abortion; and much much more).

Sounds hopeful. I’ll take 10,000. (only…sort-of…joking).

They don’t like it when it happens to them...

Anyone who uses Lewis as a solicitor can expect double-dealing, incompetence, negligence, and dishonesty.

Mark Lewis is a man of straw. When the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal fined and reprimanded him in 2018 (after which he scuttled to Israel, though he keeps returning here to make money, despite the “antisemitism” by which he claims to have been targeted), the Tribunal lowered the level of his fine because, as his own Counsel said to the Tribunal panel, Lewis owned only his own clothes, a £70 a week private pension, and a mobility scooter! Even his car was not his own, but provided to Lewis by the “antisemitic” British taxpayers via the DWP-funded Motability scheme [https://www.motability.co.uk/].

I wonder whether they will still be laughing when it happens to the homes of their own families?

As a former barrister (unlawfully and wrongfully disbarred in 2016 at the instigation of the Jewish lobby), I can see that what is happening is that many people involved (often only peripherally or online) with the protests and so-called “riots” of 2-3 months ago are now sentenced to terms of imprisonment (often years rather than months) for having done not very much; in some cases, almost nothing.

I am presuming that most of those sentenced will have had the benefit of legal advice from solicitors and Counsel.

The problem lies in the narrow legal view taken by many lawyers. I suspect that many of the lawyers involved looked at the political climate (eg the intervention on TV by “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer in July or August), looked at the evidence, and then advised their clients to plead Guilty in order to mitigate the sentence.

All good advice, or would be in a “normal”, non-political, case.

The fact is that most of the sentences being given are absurdly harsh, even taking the charges at face value.

In my opinion, the defendants in most of the recent protest cases, at least the ones about which I have read, would have been no worse off, probably better off, had they pleaded Not Guilty.

I concede that one cannot these days rely on the good sense of the traditional British jury, because the brainwashing of the public continues apace, but still I believe that a jury trial would have given many of those charged a good chance of acquittal.

A gamble, true, to plead Not Guilty, but in these “political” cases not so much, because the “message” from on high seems to have come down, “lock them up“… I do not really believe that many of those defendants have been given a real diminution of sentence of a (or the, notional) third.

My own free speech trial in November 2023 (sentence, March 2024) was different, not having been connected to any violent or noisy protests, but it was still a “political” case (instigated by the malicious Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby).

I republish the details here below but, in short, I pleaded Not Guilty to all 5 similar charges, was found guilty (by a District Judge sitting alone) on all 5 counts, and was sentenced to a financial impost amounting to £734, and to a period of, in effect, probation, involving 15 “rehabilitation days”. In the event, the financial penalty was one-third crowdfunded for me (the rest paid off over the past 6 months in instalments), and the “15 days” turned out to be about half a dozen meetings lasting from 20 minutes to a couple of hours.

All now water under the bridge, and the blog continues to be published daily, but would I really have got a lighter sentence had I pleaded Guilty? Frankly, I doubt it. For one thing, the malicious nature of the whole prosecution would not have been laid bare before the Court.

Anyway, there it is…
