“I’m not political, just in case anyone cares. I realize that can be unfashionable these days, but I’m too old to believe politics can change anything when such a huge majority of people in my country are so spiritually sick and/or dead inside. Not to mention our sellout/traitor political classes, nearly all of whom are being blackmailed or brainwashed. I generally sympathize more with conservative views culturally, left-libertarian views on the warfare state, and old-school labor-left views economically. But I’m at the point where I feel like whatever time I have remaining on this earth is best spent on other issues.”
Yvette Cooper thinks the way to stop the boats is to collaborate with France on law enforcement. This has already been tried and failed. The answer is far simpler – stop the incentives. Stop the hotels. Stop the benefits. Stop rubber-stamping asylum applications. https://t.co/U7TYqSV9iUpic.twitter.com/gPlfMIoNXZ
Yvette Cooper, an expenses cheat, fraudster, Labour Friends of Israel member, and traitress.
The ONLY way of stopping the boats is to make it clear illegal migrants who break our laws will not be allowed to stay. This means leaving ECHR, reforming Human Rights Act, detain & deport & have active deterrent. NOT Labour scrapping deterrent, expanding hotels & giving asylum
None of the System parties have any intention of “stopping the boats”, let alone stopping the million or more migrant-invaders (every year) coming in as “legal” migrants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.
Amusing. Something similar once happened on a Caribbean island where I lived, though it all blew up a couple of months before I arrived; I was told about it by a colleague.
Apparently, the defaulter was a pilot, a native of another island. He flew for a regional airline. He crashed his plane on one island or another (I do not recall what I was told, exactly; I think maybe St. Lucia) and he was killed, along with about 30 passengers and crew. Cannabis and cocaine were said to have been found in his body.
After his death, his wife was sorting through his belongings (not where she lived) and found the video tapes (this was about 25 or 26 years ago).
It turned out that the deceased pilot had, er, had literally dozens of prominent women on the island where I later lived. His wife made sure that copies of the tape were sent to several people. Soon, everyone had seen or heard of those tapes.
As my colleague later told me, these were women one met on a daily basis, such as the tall, sunglasses-wearing, woman police sergeant who conducted my driving test (I did not usually drive myself around until I arrived on that island and had no choice).
Other women involved were almost all of those who worked at the small airport on the island (as immigration officials, canteen staff, cleaners etc), the local schoolteachers, wives of the officiants at several of the (many) local churches etc. Apparently, bananas (literal bananas) featured in some of the tapes.
It all caused an enormous upheaval on an island where people tended to know everyone.
Reverting to Equatorial Guinea, I have never been there, and have only met a couple of people who have. Having said that, when I was a mere 18 years of age, in 1975, I had the idea of invading the island. A couple of boys my own age were my co-planners in that mad idea, which of course never went anywhere.
I had a large pilot’s map of the island (bought from Stanford’s in Covent Garden) and the nearby/not nearby bit of Africa where the larger part of the country (the former Spanish colony of Spanish Guinea, independent since 1968) was located. The island of Fernando Po (now, Bioko) was where the capital, Santa Isabel (now, Malabo) was. The island is about 3x the size of the Isle of Wight, and the whole country is slightly larger than Wales.
I twice met the (now long-deceased) Conservative MP, Harold Soref, in connection with my doomed plan, once at the Carlton Club and once at the original St. James’ Club in Piccadilly. He was rather dismissive (perhaps unsurprisingly). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Soref. Maybe he was just keeping an eye open for SIS/MI6.
At that time, oil had not been discovered in Equatorial Guinea (that happened only in 1995), and few people had even heard of the place. I was unaware at the time that novelist Frederick Forsyth had already published, in 1974, the novel The Dogs of War, all about an invasion of Equatorial Guinea (disguised in the book as the republic of Zangaro).
Truth/fiction etc…

So there it is. The “party formerly known as Conservative” now has a Nigerian woman, married to a banker, as its anointed leader. What a farce.
That contest was between a black (Nigerian) woman, a woman who is a member of Conservative Friends of Israel, on the one side, and a rather unpleasant and corrupt person, member of Conservative Friends of Israel, and married to an American Jewish woman, on the other.
Who really won that contest? Think about it.
Kemi Badenoch is even less (even notionally) “British” than is the egregious “Boris”-idiot. She was born in London, taken within days back to Nigeria, then brought up there and in the USA before returning to the UK at the age of 16.
Has Britain finally gone mad? The Con Party certainly has. “Goodnight Vienna” to it.

“Revealed: Rachel Reeves’s £74k rental income.
Rachel Reeves and her husband are making £74,000 a year in rental income alone, The Telegraph understands.
The Chancellor, who this week hit second home buyers and landlords with a surge in stamp duty costs, is thought to be receiving rent from two properties that adds up to more than £6,000 a month.
It comes after Ms Reeves delivered her first Budget on Wednesday, in which she condemned millions of workers to be poorer by raising National Insurance for their employers.
Landlords and second home owners reacted angrily to Ms Reeves’s maiden Budget, claiming she had put the “final nail in the coffin” for the struggling buy-to-let sector.
The Chancellor, who now lives in Downing Street with her family, lets her former family home – a four-bedroom property in south London – for around £3,200 a month.
While her husband Nicholas Joicey, a senior civil servant, is believed to have let his central London two-bed flat since 2011. It now has a market rental value of nearly £3,000 a month, according to property website Bricks&Logic.
It means the pair, who both have six-figure salaries, make more than four times the average landlord income of £16,500. Their rental income is also twice the average salary of nearly £37,000.
Conservative MP Ben Obese-Jecty said: “Having just announced a deeply unpopular Budget that has caused mortgages to rise, how does the Chancellor justify the £74,000 rental income of her and her husband’s London properties whilst living rent-free in Downing Street as their mortgages are paid for? It’s no wonder she abstained from the most recent vote on the Renters’ Rights Bill.
Ms Reeves earns around £160,000 for her roles as Chancellor and an MP. It means her household income, combined with her husband’s salary of up to £174,999, is more than £400,000.
Earlier this year, as shadow chancellor, Ms Reeves told GB News that checking her bank statement made her “wince” after she found “the money coming in” was “increasingly short of the money going out”.
The Chancellor bought her family home in 2012 with her husband for £599,950. The two co-own the property, according to the Land Registry. The couple’s detached property – which was bought with a mortgage – consists of four bedrooms and two bathrooms, according to Rightmove.
Since Ms Reeves bought it, property listing websites estimate it has gained around £349,000 in value – putting its value today at nearly £950,000.
Nine years ago, Ms Reeves had her parliamentary credit card suspended because she owed more than £4,000 in unauthorised payments. The bill was eventually recouped by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.
Between 2014 and 2022, she also claimed £1,225 on the taxpayer to pay someone else to help file her tax return.“
[Daily Telegraph]
Rachel Reeves also has other investments. She is a Grade A moneygrasper; also a member of Labour Friends of Israel and a trustee of the Jew-Zionist Auschwitz-Birkenau Foundation.
Rachel Reeves and her husband have a joint salary/investment income (including capital growth) of well over a half-million pounds a year, possibly even a million.

“Inefficient commanders and former ministers must be sent to the front line, and women must be mobilized into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army , said the head of the Air Reconnaissance Support Center of the Ukrainian Army Maria Berlinskaya. The mobilization of women is an unpopular but necessary decision, she pointed out and stressed that Ukraine “will have to give up” if the mobilization of women does not take place.”
The Kiev regime will have been toppled, or driven over, by this time next year.
If the (?) 10,000 North Korean troops are kept concentrated in a tight, discrete battle-group, they will be able to punch a hole 20 miles wide in the Kiev-regime lines in the Kursk region and behind that, in the Ukraine region bordering Kursk region. To repair that hole, the Kiev-regime will have to transfer forces from elsewhere, maybe even from the Donetsk/Lugansk front, where Russian forces are still steadily advancing.
“The gangs” are not the problem; the problem is that there are literally tens of millions of migrant-invaders en route to the UK, either “illegally” or “legally”. A million a year. Plus births to already-arrived migrants.
Incidentally, the way the UK’s asylum laws were framed, in totally different conditions decades ago, as late ago as the 1950s, there are, in principle, literally hundreds of millions of blacks and browns who might be able to claim asylum. All they have to do is reach our shores…

The thin end of a very big wedge.
The ones in the crowded zone also forced to endure official “campaigns”, Soviet-style, such as “wear a facemask!“
It does occur to me that, with the increasing pressure in the UK on animals, birds, fish, and insects, so many of which are now vulnerable or endangered, one possible answer might be to establish completely rewilded zones, perhaps 5 of them in England, and a smaller number but similar proportion in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland.
I have not fully thought-out the idea, so these are just stray ideas at present.
Such rewilded zones would go beyond the various existing zone-regimes such as Green Belt, National Park, Site of Special Scientific Interest etc.
The idea would be for such zones to be changed from whatever land use presently exists to a completely wild forest. New building would be banned, and existing housing gradually reduced. There would be no industry and no large-scale agriculture or horticulture.
The above requirements suggest that areas already sparsely-inhabited would be chosen.
As for the size of such rewilded zones, I am thinking in terms of about the same size of circumference as the M25, i.e. the Greater London area. About 5 of those in England, perhaps 2 in Scotland, 1 in Wales and 1 in Northern Ireland.
Traffic would be very restricted over time, roads not open to the public (eventually). The zones to be linked with each other and other countryside areas by the kind of wildlife grid I have proposed over recent years.

“Ukraine has enough soldiers for another 6-12 months of fighting, and then there will be an acute shortage, writes the New York Times, citing the Pentagon.
American military and intelligence officials have concluded that the war in Ukraine is no longer a stalemate, because Russia is making steady progress, and the sense of pessimism in Kiev and Washington is growing, the text says.”
“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.”

I am old enough to remember those little shops. One in particular, in Caversham Heights, near Reading, early 1960s. The sweets were dispensed by the owner, I think an otherwise-retired old fellow, who sold them in small white-paper bags. A wide range, but I either bought small boiled sweets (very small balls of hard candy), or a kind of chewing gum that came with collectable cards depicting (and explaining) battles of the American Civil War of the 1860s. I wanted the cards, not the gum.
Very gory, those cards (as I discovered only when I belatedly read law, 20 years later) were the subject of a legal case (as to whether they counted as “obscene” because of their bloodsoaked content), which case went as high as the House of Lords (House of Lords Judicial Committee, the forerunner of the present UK Supreme Court). That was around 1965, only a couple of years after I used to buy the cards.
I remember that all my friends (who also bought the cards) favoured the Confederate side, but I (alone, I think) favoured the Union. Not sure now, over 60 years later, whether that was because the Union side was more efficient, or more advanced in weaponry, or just because I wanted to go contrary to the views of the mob.
The sweetshop in question was actually made out of the front part of an ordinary late-19thC house, which (I see from Google maps and streetview) has now reverted to being just a house again.
I also remember the little sweetshop because, aged about 7, I sheltered in that tiny shop after I (God knows why, now, but it would have been in self-defence) hit another boy, and then was sought out by the much older, and rather fearsome, brother of the same. In the end, the older boy caught me outside but, after I explained that I had hit his brother in self-defence, he was very reasonable, and let me off. Maybe I had dormant barristerial skills even then (or at least the ability to get out of scrapes)…

Unsurprising mendacity. Yvette Cooper is not only a longstanding expenses freeloader but an actual fraudster who was lucky to escape criminal prosecution around 2009. A Labour Friends of Israel moneygrubber.

In Britain this month a man was sent to prison for “life” which the judge said was “a minimum of 8 years” for pushing somebody in front of a train, despite having 13 previous convictions, six separate prison sentences and being in the country illegally. Now read that again.

Whatever one may think of “Tommy Robinson” (and I myself consider him to be part of the “controlled opposition”, a kind of “Father Gapon” figure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgy_Gapon), he has, and makes, some good points. The above is one of them— a man of 61 chucked into one of England’s crumbling, dystopian prisons, and for doing almost nothing. Sub-Stalinist Britain.
Simplistic, maybe, but correct in broad terms. Starmer, the Jewish-lobby puppet who went down on his knees for the fraudulent “Black Lives Matter” nonsense (alongside thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner).

That was, of course, a very wrong thing to have done. It certainly deserved punishment, and quite likely a prison term, but the length of the term imposed is what struck me— 3 years!
Admittedly, as things are, that means that the convicted defendant will serve “only” about 13-14 months, but surely, in all the circumstances, a 20-month term or even a 10-month term would have been sufficient (meaning that the defendant would serve 8 or 4 months). Still unpleasant for her, and still sending a message to others etc.
There is routine over-sentencing in this country, but that is, I concede, combined with under-sentencing for many others, e.g. some people who attack others violently, yet get suspended sentences.
I might add a few well-chosen words, but anything I might say would probably result (via “the usual suspects”) in the poundshop Stasi “thought police” being a nuisance and an inconvenience, and boring me at my door (yet again)…
Now reporting restrictions have been lifted we are able to say Chris Kaba was a notorious violent armed criminal gang member.
We were not allowed to report this until today.
Kaba's mother applied to extend reporting restrictions beyond the end of the trial, but she has failed.
It is, arguably, human nature to want to see one’s enemies eliminated. For example, if one has been harassed by some malicious nuisances for years, and they all, or some of them, start to “snuff it”, one tends to feel happy.
Now, we all know, in theory at least, that all human individual lives are limited in duration. A year, 10 years, 50 years, the “Biblical” 70 years or, in a relatively few cases, 100 years. We know that we ourselves are “in the same condemnation” as the Revelation of St. John the Divine puts it (if I recall aright). Yet we are pleased that our persecutors and other enemies die before we ourselves do.
I suppose that many will say that that is wrongheaded, but it is, au fond, human. After all, those who kill on the battlefield are trying, putting it in the most basic terms, to kill the enemy and also to avoid being killed by the enemy; that despite the fact that those adherent to both sides in a battle will die, if not on the day of battle, then the next day, the next month, the next year, or in x-years’ time.
Arjuna was advised by Krishna, on the eve of battle, and when Arjuna was having conscience-stricken thoughts, that he (Arjuna) must not avoid doing his duty on the field of Kurukshetra. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhagavad_Gita.
Evolution requires that we do what is necessary to further, or to fulfil, it.

I happened to see on TV an elderly, over-90 years, but very compos mentis, retired professor, talking to the TV chef Rick Stein about the decline in average IQ since 1950, as apparently noted in a study done by, or under the auspices of, Bradford University. The professor cited as a (or even the) causative reason the decline of consumption of fish and shellfish in the UK over the past 74 years.
That may be part of it. Certainly some types of fish popular with the mass market have become expensive; even standard British favourites such as cod and haddock. I bought some fish and chips recently: 1 large cod, 1 large haddock, 1 small bag of chips. £20.50.
Whether you think that £20.50 for a smallish bag of chips and 2 large pieces of fish is expensive or not will depend on your general financial level, but it is at least certainly more than most citizens will want to pay out on a daily basis.
Some fish in the UK is not, however, expensive, however poor you are. Mackerel, for one, which can be bought (uncooked) in a supermarket for as little as a pound or so for a good-size fillet.
I recall that, when I lived in Fethiye (Turkey) for a few months in 2001 (I drove there from the UK, a trip that was more difficult then than it now is), I went to the fish market in the town almost daily, about 4-5 times a week. The hierarchy of price descended from the most expensive, which were huge langoustines, or tuna steak and swordfish (cut from massive whole tuna and swordfish, some 5 or 6 feet or more long and 1-2 feet wide), through many other types of fish and shellfish and down to tiny fish, presumably by-catch, which cost only about 5% or even 2% of the most expensive. There is always a decision to be made by the individual on what is affordable or not.
[the fish market, Fethiye, Turkey. The many restaurant tables and chairs were not there when I used to patronise the market (neither was that sign in English) but, at that time, in 2001, the fish market was new, having been built or rebuilt and possibly having also been relocated from a different place. That was 23 years ago. How time flies when you are older…]

IQ in a general population is obviously affected by diet, but is also a function of other factors. The UK’s average IQ level has been badly affected by, inter alia, the mass immigration that has been such a feature of the past 75 years.
Importation of non-European peoples into the UK has had many negative consequences. A lower average IQ is merely one.
One sees evidence of decline in IQ and/or educational levels everywhere. One example might be secondary school exam papers. When I was studying, belatedly, in my mid-twenties, for “A” Levels (and an “S” level) in 1983, studying alone and without tuition, I sent off for papers from a number of previous years, from the 1950s and 1960s right up to 1982. Even in 1983, one could see that the level of difficulty had steadily declined over the previous 30 years.
Since the 1980s, of course, there has been massive award inflation. Not only at secondary educational level but also at tertiary (university) level. Hardly anyone actually fails a university degree now, unless the student drops out. The kind of average degree, normal only 30 or more years ago, a 2:2 (as earned by Tony Blair, among others), is now not even considered a reasonably “good” degree. The real standard has not improved, but dropped, while presented as something wonderful.
As for myself, long ago, in the 1980s, my IQ was tested at 156 (UK average being 100, and university students typically testing at 125), certainly in the top 1% of the population, but that was in the mid-1980s, when I was about 30, and it may well be (I do not know) that I would test lower today. By way of compensation, though, I think that I can say that experience, and other infusions from the stream of Life, make up the difference, and perhaps more.
We often hear that “things do not work properly any more in our society”, and that may become a greater problem as average IQ drops ever lower.
Our society should be travelling, by design, in the other direction.

It is time to stop thinking of MPs, not all but many of them, as merely “mistaken” or “wrongheaded“, and to awaken to the fact that some, perhaps many of them, are —in a word, in lay meaning— “traitors” to the British people and their future. Not necessarily the above MP, though; I am talking generally.

And it just is the SRA’s job to protect the public from incompetent advice. because that’s part of the obligations Parliament has imposed on the SRA by enacting section 1 of the Legal Services Act 2007.
“This decision by the SRA about Lewis’ negligent advice is just awful. Mark Lewis told Pete Newbon that the defamatory publication did not identify me. It was startlingly incompetent advice because the publication contained a clear photo of me and Tolley v Fry (possibly the most famous defamation case) says a claimant can be identified by a photo or sketch. The SRA’s own Code of Conduct says solicitors must “ensure that the service you provide to clients is competent…” So contrary to what the SRA says, incompetent advice is a regulatory matter. And the SRA’s strategy for dealing with Lewis’ incompetent advice is for Newbon to bring a negligence claim or complain to the ombudsman. Obviously, Newbon will not do either of those things. It scares me that the SRA – faced with a solicitor who appears not to grasp the absolute basics of the area of law he works in – won’t take action to protect the public from incompetent advice. Surely it is the SRA’s job to identify and deal with solicitors who give incompetent advice?@sra_solicitors@lawsocgazette.“
[James Wilson, successful claimant in the legal case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Cantor, and Newbon (deceased)]. ]
Mark Lewis, as previously noted, is a self-publicizing and —by the “occupied” UK msm— hugely overrated solicitor who should have been struck off (not merely reprimanded and fined, as he was) for some of his previous professional (meaning unprofessional) defaults. He is, and has been repeatedly proven to be, dishonest, untruthful, and professionally negligent.
Only a complete idiot would now instruct “Mark Lewis Lawyer”.
What is protecting Lewis, in my view, is the fact that the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority was screeched at in 2019 by the organized Jew-Zionist lobby, after the SRA fined and reprimanded Lewis, after which he performatively decamped to Israel (but then slunk back quite often to the UK to make money). The SRA may be running a little scared of “the screechers” (((them))).

“Almost 63,000 asylum seekers whose cases were placed on hold by the Tories could be granted permission to stay in Britain under Labour.
A report by the Refugee Council predicts a significant increase in granted claims thanks to changes brought in by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper.
Of 118,882 asylum seekers who were waiting for a Home Office decision at the general election, 62,801 are likely to secure refugee status here based on current rates, the report said.”
[Daily Mail]
Exactly as I have been predicting for the past couple of years.
Stand by for the next “shock”— Starmer and Yvette Cooper “processing” asylum claims in France or even in Africa and Asia, and “allowing” (rubberstamping) 90%+ to come to the UK, then to claim housing, cash benefits, NHS and other services.
Somewhere down the line there will be a complete collapse of our society, possibly in, or followed by, a social/racial/civil war.
Incidentally, over 14,000 migrant-invaders have used the “small boats” method to arrive here this year, so far. That, though, is only about 5%, if that, of the total of migration to the UK so far this year. Over the whole of 2024, the total will be at least half a million, quite likely more.
I live very close to a small southern Hampshire coastal town, reputedly one of the most affluent in the UK. Over the past decade or so, I first noticed quite a few Chinese appearing in the streets, but at first not many blacks or browns, only the odd one. The proportion of all non-Europeans, compared to (real) British people, has risen inexorably. It is patent, quite visible on the streets, even here. In larger towns and cities, such as Southampton and Bournemouth, let alone London, it is much much worse, and still getting worse.
There it is. The main Jewish religious text (the Torah, being the first 5 books of the Hebrew Bible, the same as the first 5 books of the Old Testament) is about twice as violent, even on a superficial view, as the main texts of both Islam and Christianity.

Much of Africa had functioning railways when Europeans ruled. Few of those lines are left (mostly in South Africa, but some elsewhere too). Some new lines are planned.
I myself have only travelled once on African rail but that was, again, under white European rule, in 1977, travelling from Bulawayo, Rhodesia (now “Zimbabwe”) to Gaborone in Botswana, an overnight journey that started just after midday, around 1300 hrs, at Bulawayo, and finished at seven-thirty the following morning at Gaborone. About 18 hours. The train then continued on into South Africa, finishing either at Ladysmith or Mafeking (I forget). That would have been inconvenient to me, so I hopped off in Botswana.
Fortunately, the train was not hit en route (as it had been several times previously) by rocket or small arms fire from African terrorists/guerrillas/”freedom fighters” in the Rhodesia-Botswana border area (take your pick as to designation), the Rhodesian Bush War being at or near its height at the time.

No details about the polling, so I am entitled to presume that those figures are simply invented, the “poll” having been released by the globalist and finance-capitalist Policy Exchange “think tank” (lobby group). I should hate to have to conclude that 49% of the people in this country are ignorant morons.
The Commonwealth has been a complete waste of time and money for decades now, in any case.
Even now, the Kiev-regime front is crumbling, with Russian forces advancing on all sectors of the active front, and the Kiev regime struggling to find enough soldiers (many with as little as 6 weeks’ training) to plug the gaps. Untold thousands are evading or avoiding the draft, and brutal press-gangs are scouring the cities and towns.
This latest move could be a game-changer. The Koreans are tough, the North Koreans maybe even more so than those in the South.
I recall that, in 1984, when I was a taekwando beginner, I watched a film about South Korea’s advanced taekwando training academy, a modern white-painted concrete-and-glass building out in the Korean countryside. That film started with a contingent of trainees, all neat, none looking hot or sweaty, and all in white costume with black belts, jogging in perfect formation. The voiceover explained that the students had just finished a 10-mile run, and that all students at that academy were already of at least basic black belt standard when they started at the academy.
I wonder where Putin and the Stavka (Russian high command) will deploy those Korean troops. Clausewitz would seem to indicate that they be kept together rather than dispersed, thus forming a spearhead force that, concentrated on one area of the front, might be able to create a Schwerpunkt breakthrough.

The reasons for this latest injustice are, of course, obvious.
Firstly, Huw Edwards is a member of the System msm/political/talking head/scribbler club. Pro-migration invasion, pro-multikulti, pro-System, pro-Israel (probably), pro-Jew-lobby (almost certainly), pro-LGBTXYZ, pro-“trans” nonsense, and so on.
The lady sentenced to an incredibly harsh 31 months for an understandable (if unwise) tweet or whatever is not a member of that “club”. She is “just” a wife and (to use the very good American word) homemaker. A normal citizen, in short.
The System protects its own, such as Huw Edwards; ordinary citizens are treated like trash.
Secondly, Huw Edwards was guilty of a non-political offence. In the new sub-Stalinist Britain, socio-political “crimes” such as posting the “wrong sort of” tweet, or criticizing the Jewish lobby, or the migration invasion, are treated far more harshly than “real” crimes, non-political crimes.
Lucy Connolly has been treated harshly because of, and, in my opinion only because of, those two factors.
There was no evidence that any of the actual protesters or “rioters” were influenced by, or even saw, her tweet and/or her WhatsApp message (though that need not be proven to make out the offence). Still, those facts should surely mitigate sentence.
I have two or three further thoughts about the matter: firstly, that her husband or someone else should set up a GoFundMe or other crowdfunder for her; secondly, that she should have pleaded Not Guilty. She may well have been lucky in her jury.
It might also be worth her while to consider an appeal on sentence (alone).
As it is, 40% of 31 months translates to about 12 months and 1 week actually in prison. I believe that I read at the time of her arraignment that she was remanded in custody prior to sentence. That was sometime in August of this year, so she has already been in prison for —I think— over 2 months. That should mean that she can expect release within about 10 months. Still very harsh, in my view.
The sentencing judge (a Recorder, i.e. p/t judge, and barrister) apparently made the ridiculous remark today that “It is [a/the] strength of our society that it is both diverse and inclusive.” Does he really and honestly believe that?!
So another person has received a harsher yet sentence for merely having reposted part of one of Mrs. Connolly’s messages.
I have to say that Mrs. Connolly’s husband does not strike me as being or having been particularly outspoken in her defence, but I suppose that I could be mistaken about him. I should not like to think that his reserved response has anything to do with his pathetic local Conservative Party activity.
