[“Pits, dungeons and unofficial prisons are commonplace in Ukraine, and the authorities in Kiev are well aware of their existence, Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik told TASS.

On Monday, Ukrainian media outlets reported that armed men were detaining about 40 people in the basement of a private house in a Kiev suburb.

TASS has summarized the key details available so far: https://vk.cc/d3xOa1“]

https://tass.com/politics/2212297

The Jew-Zionist/Ukrainian thug Kiev regime is a shambolic and corrupt dictatorship which, without the endless billions being pumped in by the US, EU states, and the UK, would be finished within a week or two.

Ukraine, at present, is a fake state, not really a state at all.

Russia cannot lose this war, and will not lose it.

[“Tehran Threatens to Missile U.S. Bases in Europe

IRANIAN MILITARY DECLARES READINESS TO EXPAND “GEOGRAPHICAL SCOPE OF MILITARY OPERATIONS”

Around Donald Trump, three camps have formed: Vice President J.D. Vance and the Persian Gulf monarchies advocate for a deal with Iran, while Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demand a continuation of strikes. The leadership of the State Department, the Treasury Department, and the CIA call only for continued economic pressure.“]

Are the Iranians thinking of dispersing their attack-power even more?

Concentrate on Israel itself. Schwerpunkt.

Zelensky deserves what all evil tyrants deserve.

[“In Germany, the scandal involving the torture of soldiers near Kyiv has become a question for the Chancellor.

Alice Weidel, co-chair of the “Alternative for Germany” (AfD) party, has demanded that Friedrich Merz discuss the issue with Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Mobilized soldiers and military personnel who had deserted their units were reportedly held in a private house used by the National Guard. Relatives have reported instances of beatings. Four soldiers with injuries were hospitalized. The National Guard denies the allegations of torture; an investigation is underway.

This issue has now become more than just an AfD agenda item. Fabio de Masi, co-chair of the “Union for Social Justice and Economic Prudence,” linked the scandal to forced mobilization and corruption. He believes that the poor are sent to the front lines, while the wealthy can buy their way out. The Berliner Zeitung published evidence of beatings and document forgery during mobilization back in January.

This is a test of consistency for Friedrich Merz. Berlin demands respect for human rights from other countries. Is he prepared to ask the same of an ally?”]

Kiev-regime Ukraine is no “ally“; it is a beggar-state, a criminal bandit fake state run by Jews and Ukrainian thugs and gangsters.

As for Merz, he is a joke, a bad German joke.

I had forgotten about his latest political adventure. I assessed him (as well as Brendan Bracken and Dominic Cummings) on the blog 7 years ago:

Les Eminences Grises…of Dystopia

Seems that he is on the back foot in the California gubernatorial election. latest polls give him only 34% of the vote.

An amusing spat…

Regular readers will be aware that I have been attacked and, in a word, persecuted, by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] for about 12 years, in fact ever since the bastards started, and even before the small but (((well-funded))) organization was officially established.

At the end of this piece, I shall post again some of my own experiences with the “CAA”, and a few comments thereupon.

However, for the moment, I repost a series of tweets just noticed. The irony is that the tweets are not from those persecuted by the CAA (which would, apart from me, include singer/satirist Alison Chabloz, Jewish anti-Zionist Gilad Atzmon, celebrity intellectual dissident David Icke, and many many others), and not from other anti-Zionists or “anti-Semites” but from a Jew, indeed a Zionist Jew, who himself has been, I believe, assiduous in targeting supposed “anti-Semites” from his home in West Wales.

The tweeter in question was one of two Jewish activists (the other was from North London) who continually pressured the police in Wales until the police arrested and the CPS charged a young man (24-y-o) called David Morgan with “antisemitic” incitement.

Apparently, after political pressure, the young man’s tweets were eventually passed to the Anti-Terror Command of the police. You could not make it up. Ludicrous.

Morgan pleaded guilty (I think mistakenly) and was shown no mercy by the System judge sitting: 20 months in prison, though I believe that Morgan may have been released recently, having served 10 months.

I think that Morgan would have been better pleading Not Guilty, and taking his chance with a Welsh jury.

So that is the background. Here are the tweets just seen:

(the word “work” appears to have been left out of that first tweet; arguably ironic, but let’s leave that aside)

Yes, I have to say that, on a dull day, it has at least marginally amused me (“delight” I shall save for yet better news).

Incidentally, I do not endorse, indeed I oppose, the street-baiting of those “black hat” (or any other) Jews, whether to get online clicks or for any other purpose. Serious socio-political activists should not behave in such a way.

Of course, honesty has never been associated with the “CAA”. Their self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”, one Stephen Silverman (I think “Slitherman” is a better name), has been making lying complaints about me (and others) for years, not least to (until recently, far too-compliant) police in various parts of the country. In 2021, Slitherman made up a completely-invented story, which he retailed to the police in Gloucestershire (where he now lives), about how I had been “racially harassing” him.

That was an out and out lie. At the time, 2021, I was unaware that Slitherman had moved from his “native” Essex to Gloucestershire, and I was unaware of his location even broadly, let alone his address (I never knew his address in South Essex, either). His general location has since been broadcast on Sky News.

I was (and am) unaware of Slitherman’s telephone number, email addresses etc.

I had never seen Slitherman in person until I saw the horrible bastard for the first time when he came to gloat at my free speech trial in 2023, and have never spoken or otherwise communicated with him.

Slitherman’s complaint to the police (in Gloucestershire, but then passed to the police in Hampshire where I myself live) was not only an out and out pack of lies, but an open and shut case of both wasting police time (which the police never seemed to notice) and, more seriously yet, an attempt to pervert the course of justice, an offence which carries, upon conviction, a maximum penalty of life imprisonment and a normal sentencing range which can go as high as 7 years in prison.

The matter can be explained in more detail in the following blog posts:

When I was a victim of a malicious Zionist complaint…

That was Slitherman’s first attempt to put the manacles on me (to quote the late Sir Roger Hollis). It happened in early 2017, just after he and his “CAA” colleagues had been involved in the operation —conducted with Jews from “UK Lawyers for Israel”, some of which also belong to the “CAA”— to have me disbarred, an operation that started in 2014, and concluded in late 2016, and which I have chronicled (with updates) on the blog:

The Slide of the English Bar and UK Society Continues and Accelerates

“They” like to kick people when their victims are down…look at what has been happening in Gaza for 3 years now.

So what about Slitherman’s attempt to pervert the course of justice (on that occasion)? It happened in 2021 and I blogged about it in 2022:

Diary Blog, 15 January 2022, including an outline of the failure of the latest Jew-Zionist attempt to prosecute me

Despite the tame police doing whatever the “CAA” wanted, the CPS decided not to prosecute me on that occasion, but the “CAA” and their non-Jew doormats in the political world eventually got me into the dock, on different and cobbled-together charges, in 2023 (Slitherman turned up to gloat):

Diary Blog, 16 March 2024, including an account of my recent free speech trial and sentencing

…and he turned up to gloat again at the sentencing hearing in March 2024 (but scuttled off very quickly once he realized that I would not be getting imprisoned, or even a suspended sentence, nor even a week or two of unpaid litter-picking):

Diary Blog, 17 March 2024, including the aftermath of my sentencing hearing

Leaving aside my own experiences for a moment, the “CAA” (i.e. Slitherman and his colleague Gideon Falter (self-styled chief of the tiny “CAA” apparat) have had “trouble” having their testimony, even their sworn testimony, believed by judges and others.

Falter, of course, made up a pack of lies about being harassed in the street by the Metropolitan Police a few years ago. The “CAA” wanted to get rid of the Commissioner of Metropolitan Police, Rowley (he’s still there, though, as far as I know).

Even before that, and before the “CAA” was even set up, Falter was disbelieved by a judge in relation to his attempt to have a Foreign Office diplomat, Rowan Laxton, convicted of making comments of an “incitement to racial hatred” “antisemitic” nature. Falter was just not believed, despite having sworn on oath. Laxton is still at the Foreign Office, and now holds ambassadorial rank.

As a matter of fact, both “antisemitism” as such, and “holocaust denial” (historical revision in relation to supposed events of the early 1940s), are —neither of them— crimes under English law, a fact repeatedly confirmed by English judges in English courts.

Even Jews, indeed even Zionist pro-Israel Jews, have over the years realized that the “CAA” and its leading lights are a pack of liars. Incidentally, I should be interested to know what, if any, salary Slitherman gets. It is certainly a full-time occupation for him, and a year or so ago, wealthy Jews gave the “CAA” £600,000+.

He is also sometimes (though not as often as a few years ago) on Sky News, and even BBC News, and much more often on the joke pro-Israel news outlets, GB News and Talk TV. The fact that Slitherman was once a notorious Twitter troll using the pseudonym “Bedlam Jones”, and was harassing mainly women online, does not seem to have made him unwelcome at GB News or Talk TV as supposed “expert” talking-head on “antisemitism”.

When will this poor country really start to wake up?

Finally, I had to laugh at the “CAA” tweeting today about how their lawyers might take on, in legal battle, the Good Law Project, which is going to apply for judicial review about the Labour Friends of Israel-instigated idea of censoring anti-Israel discussion in schools and universities.

I have little time for self-important Jolyon Maugham and his Good Law Project, and actually the “CAA” for once made a good point in their tweet about how the “GLP” is, in effect, a machine for collecting donations from mugs, but of course people in glass houses should not throw stones. The “CAA” has been collecting millions over the past 12 years from wealthy Jewish mugs, and for the same reason.

Finally finally, here is that news report about David Morgan, the young man imprisoned for posting some tweets:

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/twisted-welsh-loner-able-spread-32962872

I wonder whether I should, even at this late juncture, make my own complaint, this time against Slitherman, and on the basis of his unquestioned attempt to pervert the course of justice in 2021-2022. Let’s see. In theory, there is no time limitation (though there is for “wasting police time”— 6 months from date of offence).

Ah…look at what someone posted only a day ago about “Slitherman”:

GB News and Talk TV should wake up, no matter who owns them…

Incidentally, Slitherman is lying again in that piece about “the Big Lie”. Hitler was talking (writing) about the System he opposed (the Weimar Republic, largely influenced by Jewish interests) and its methods. They were the ones using the “Big Lie”, not Hitler himself.

Ironic…

Just saw more on the basis for the initial tweets seen:

Don’t forget the billions thrown away propping-up the Kiev regime and supporting the Israeli and other Jews.

[“Under pressure from Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Trump administration may be within days of launching a nuclear strike on Iran. The target would be Pickax Mountain in central Iran, where Israeli intelligence claims the Iranian government has restarted its nuclear enrichment program. No conventional weapon in the American arsenal can penetrate 300 feet of solid granite to destroy the tunnels where enrichment is supposedly taking place. The only military option is a nuclear strike. Netanyahu has been pushing hard for one. “Bibi calls Trump about it every day,” says an informed observer.

Netanyahu is cornered and desperate. After last week’s election results, he can’t form a government unless Trump intervenes directly in Israeli politics and brokers a deal with other parties that gives Netanyahu 61 seats in the Knesset. Otherwise, he is out as prime minister and on his way to ignominy, investigations and possibly jail. Netanyahu must stay close to Trump. He needs this war.

To that end, he’s applied maximum pressure to his closest allies in the administration, including Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and CENTCOM commander Brad Cooper. Both oppose a negotiated settlement to the war they’ve so grievously mismanaged; both are pushing to restart major combat operations. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and CIA director John Ratcliffe are also following Netanyahu’s lead, as are leaders of the Democratic Party. In a recent meeting on the subject, former president Barack Obama said he opposes the current Iran peace deal being drafted in Doha.

The rest of America’s longtime allies in the Middle East are terrified by the prospect of more war. On September 27th, Netanyahu flew secretly to Abu Dhabi to enlist the UAE in his lobbying effort for a final attack on Iran. The Emiratis refused. After eight months of conflict, Gulf economies are teetering. So are global energy and fertilizer markets. They won’t recover soon. Globally, there are a total of about 850 supertankers used to transport oil from producers to the rest of the world. In October alone, 11 of them were badly damaged in Hormuz. At this pace, a global depression is imminent. A nuclear strike would radically accelerate the destruction. Fallout from a ground explosion at Pickax Mountain would contaminate the Persian Gulf, poisoning the water supply for 100 million people.

And those are just some of the immediate consequences for the region. The rest of the world is every bit as exposed. No country other than the United States has ever used a nuclear weapon in war. Some would like to. An American nuclear attack on Iran would set a new precedent. The Russians have already told at least two other governments that an American nuclear strike on Iran would free them to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine. Pakistan and India would be tempted to do the same against each other, as would North Korea against Seoul. After the first nuclear strike, World War Three is inevitable. That war would be short and final.

We’ve been sleepwalking toward this moment for months. Since February, the administration has quietly rewritten America’s nuclear doctrine to make first use of so-called “battlefield nukes” easier and therefore more likely. No one in Washington in either party seems bothered by this. Now we’re on the brink of it.

Close observers say Trump is likely to decide by next weekend whether or not to use nuclear weapons. That would be November 7, six days from now. To his credit, he’s hesitating. At the moment, Trump is listening to his vice president, JD Vance, and to his envoy and friend Steve Witkoff, both of whom argue a deal with Iran can be made.

They’re right, though it won’t be simple. The Iranians are famously frustrating to negotiate with under any circumstances, and elements of that government have become more radical since Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his family were killed in February. After decades of isolation, even relatively moderate Iranian leaders seem confused by how decisions are made in the West. (There is a widespread belief in Tehran, for example, that the United States government controls Israel.) But overall, people who have spoken to decision-makers in Iran say there is consensus there that more war is bad for everyone and a deal is worth making.

One group that hasn’t been consulted so far is the global population — the hundreds of millions of people who will be killed along with their children if Trump is pushed by Netanyahu into launching a nuclear strike next week. Now would be the time for them to speak up.”]

That, if it were to happen, would let the genie out of the bottle.

Since 1945, the use of nuclear weapons has been a consensus taboo. If the Americans attack Iran with nuclear weapons, they can hardly then censure others doing the same. For example, if Russia uses tactical nuclear weapons to clear the crumbling Kiev-regime front-line, destroying a large part of the most active Kiev-regime forces, and so allowing the Stavka to order a general advance, perhaps including air drops north and west of the existing overall front-line.

That would benefit all sides, unbelievably. Russia would get paid for its gas, and the consumers of the EU would benefit from lower prices, but even the Kiev regime would benefit, because its EU bankrollers would have more funds to funnel to Kiev. Strange world…

The UK should be getting reparations from Jamaica etc for our having to have put up with the “Windrush generation” and those who came later, and their descendants.

The Kiev regime is a total disgrace. It should cease to exist.

Translates to a Commons with about 337 Labour MPs (smallish majority), 128 Cons, 103 Reform, 30 LibDems, 28 SNP [etc].

[““HE WAS OLD ANYWAY… SO WHAT DOES IT MATTER?”

Those are the words a paramedic says were spoken after 86-year-old Edward Anderson died alone on the floor of his bedroom.

Let that sink in.

Edward was a husband. A father. A hospice patient. A human being who deserved dignity in his final days.

According to investigators, his overnight caregiver, Beatrice Taylor, fell asleep during her shift. Around 1 a.m., she allegedly heard a loud thump and found Edward trapped on the floor with his head wedged between his bed and a nightstand.

He was alive.
He was conscious.

Investigators say a call to 911 at that moment could have saved his life.

Instead, authorities allege she walked away and went back to sleep.

Hours later, investigators say she spent nearly 40 minutes on the phone with her parents before checking on him again. By then, Edward was unconscious. Even then, deputies say 911 was not called immediately.

Emergency responders weren’t contacted until 5: 37 a.m.

By the time they arrived…

Edward Anderson was gone.

The medical examiner ruled his death positional asphyxia, meaning he slowly suffocated while trapped.

Investigators say data from his pacemaker showed he survived for a period after the fall, and that prompt medical assistance could have prevented his death.

Then came the statement that has left so many people outraged.

A paramedic reported hearing the caregiver say:

“He was old anyway… so what does it matter?”

It matters because every life matters.

It matters because growing old does not erase a person’s value.

It matters because no one deserves to spend their final moments frightened, trapped, and alone when help was only a phone call away.

Authorities charged Beatrice Taylor with aggravated manslaughter of an elderly person.

Edward Anderson deserved compassion.

Instead, prosecutors allege he was abandoned when he needed someone most.”]

I suppose that, in time, that sort of work will be done by robots. After all, no pay (and no fried chicken) required.

A few brutal weeks of basic training, and that man will be on the crumbling front-lines of the Kiev regime. After having been deployed, he will probably only be alive for a few days or weeks.

“Rivne” is the Ukrainian name for the town of Rovno, in Western Ukraine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivne.

Looks as if the young lady’s father has been kidnapped by the goons of the Kiev regime, and will suffer the same fate as the one shown in the previous above clip, in which a man was abducted from outside a chemist’s shop somewhere in Ukraine (looks like it was in Dnipro/Dnepropetrovsk).

Many MPs have CVs that are largely faked. Look at Iain Dunce Duncan Smith. He is also a criminal fraudster, who should have been prosecuted.

Burnham’s “strategy” of “majoring in minor things” has not —yet— angered many people precisely because of that. Ipso facto, if you like.

Perhaps surprisingly, Labour now sits quite high in the polls, around 30%.

In the country, in our society, though, the slide continues. Migration invasion, housing crisis, cost of living crisis etc. All worsening. Daily.

Is the name of the U.S. President “Trump” or “chump”?

Most commentators are thinking in terms of rockets, or bombs dropped from aircraft, but what if secret agents or special forces commandos were to smuggle suitcase bombs into target countries?

Frankly, I should prefer the UK to be invaded by Russians (not that it will ever happen) rather than by million upon million blacks, browns and Orientals from God-knows-where (as at present).

At least Russians are of European race, are (many/most of them) reasonably —and sometimes very— educated and cultured, and at least I can understand their language!

All about the dishonest and incompetent Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis, and a whole cabal of dishonest Jew lawyers (both barristers and solicitors) connected with Lewis.

I have covered the issues in the past. Use the search box on the blog for more.

Were Europe not so decadent, and were the international order not so messed-up, most of the black/brown “states” of Africa and elsewhere could be taken back under the wing of a new European over-state, a new imperium. About 1% of the native population(s), i.e. the present pseudo-elites and kleptocratic political types, would have to be detained or eliminated, but the 99% remaining would love European order and relative incorruption.

Another indication that the UK political system is broken is that a woman of very mediocre ability can become an MP, firstly, on her back, and then be promoted to Cabinet minister and even Prime Minister…

Dutch bum-boy posing as statesman pretends to lay down the law to Putin. Meanwhile, the Netherlands, a country I really liked in the 1970s and 1980s, is degenerating in every way (and has been for at least 25 years). Putin must be shaking his head…

[“Here’s what I suspect you won’t hear on the BBC about the budget.

The British state is now working on the assumption that net migration will steadily rise again to at least 230,000 by 2031.

That’s equivalent to adding a city the size of Southampton to our population in just one year.

Between 2026 and 2031, 910,000 migrants will be added to the UK – net.

That’s equivalent to adding two Liverpools in five years.

While they are also failing to build enough houses, investing in our public services, and hold our country together.“]

As I have been predicting on the blog for years. The “boat people” will, some of them, now have no need to cross the Channel, because they will, like millions of other non-Europeans, simply be “processed” (i.e. given visas) before they get to the Channel, or even before they leave their home countries.

This is socio-political treachery. This is the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan in action. The Great Replacement. Migration invasion on a huge scale.

As far as I am concerned, expenses cheat, fraud, and Labour Friends of Israel member, Yvette Cooper, is a complete traitor to the British people.

Ludicrous.

Budget thoughts

The Budget announcements were mostly minor, if not very minor, and of course the money set to be spent on Defence (especially that wasted on support for the Kiev-regime dictatorship) is money thrown away, but I do think that getting rid of standing charges on gas bills is a good move, though something that should have been done decades ago. In fact, it should apply to all utility bills. Those charges are as outdated and unjust as the only-recently-junked “ground rent” scam profiteering.

A few thoughts out of season

I understand that the little twerp currently posing as Prime Minister took part in the TV show Gogglebox recently. I have never seen the show, but I believe that it consists of people sitting on a sofa and commenting on other TV shows. If so, pretty pathetic even without the Prime Minister being there.

Once again I was reminded of the pathetically low standards of those presently allowed (and I do use the word advisedly) to become MPs, ministers, prime ministers.

I also saw a clip of an interview given by Angela Rayner a few days ago. Again, absolutely pathetic. No point in reiterating my views about her. Regular readers of the blog will know my opinion. Suffice to say that I do not think some uneducated, uncultured, “chavscum” woman, utterly dishonest, and complete with tattoos, “vapes”, and a liking for booze and vulgar noisy “clubs” on Ibiza (at the age of 46, at that) should be anywhere near political or social power.

Those now “at the top” of the political totem-pole are almost ludicrously poor-quality. A few examples? Lammy. Burnham (obviously). Angela Rayner (ditto). Shabana Mahmood. Kemi Badenoch. Many others.

A different subject. Oxford Street.

I used to live in and around London (various times during the overall 1976-2002 period, and in a number of places, but most often in the Little Venice neighbourhood). Occasionally, I would go to shops in Oxford Street, mainly to Selfridges, which then sold Russian beer, Zhiguli (now all but unobtainable in the UK), and other items of interest.

I see now that the main part of Oxford Street, between Marble Arch and Oxford Circus, has been pedestrianized. Big mistake, in my view. Now, if anyone wants to get to a shop or store in Oxford Street without a walk, he or she will apparently have to get a taxi or bus to the streets round the back of the shops, somehow. Most people will not bother.

I saw a few minutes of an interview with that unpleasant little Pakistani, Sadiq Khan, in which he said that the decline of Oxford Street will be reversed by reason of the pedestrianization. Ha. I doubt it, and such pedestrian streets usually end up as the haunt of petty criminal elements, street buskers and jugglers, and beggars.

That Sadiq Khan individual is plainly, like so many political nonentities in the UK, living in a bubble of self-delusion.

Final stray thought: the less I hear, or see, of that ridiculous princeling, Harry Windsor, and (a fortiori) Meghan Mulatta, the more content I shall be.

[“During the Axis occupation of Greece in World War II, Mount Athos—the autonomous monastic republic—occupied a uniquely remarkable diplomatic position after its Holy Community (Iera Koinotis), fearing plunder or annexation by Bulgarian forces, sent a formal petition directly to Adolf Hitler in April 1941 asking for his intervention.

Hitler accepted the appeal and declared the holy mountain under his personal protection (Sondergebiet), assigning a minimal German garrison while tasking Ahnenerbe scholars like Franz Dölger with surveying and photographing the priceless Byzantine manuscripts and treasures rather than looting them.

Seeking to maintain local stability, prevent the peninsula from becoming a base for Greek resistance or Allied intelligence, and respect the ancient monastic Avaton (prohibition of women), German authorities strictly regulated military conduct on the peninsula, enabling the visiting Wehrmacht soldiers and the centuries-old monastic state to coexist in relative quiet until the German retreat in late 1944, leaving Mount Athos’s sacred architecture and millennia of historical archives virtually intact.“]

Our animal friends.

Several times, over many years, I have handed in (to the police, or to the owners directly) money and other property found lying on the ground. Smaller amounts than in the above example, and always with some kind of ID with it. I would not take on the karmic burden of appropriating it. Admittedly, if it were a suitcase containing a million pounds, I might take a different view…

Is that why, or partly why, we see constant “prepare for emergencies, prepare for black-outs, prepare for food and water-supply disruption” propaganda in the msm, and from government now?

This is all being driven by the Israeli Jews… so, if the USA launches another massive attack on Iran, the Iranian forces should concentrate most of their response on Israel, particularly on central Tel Aviv, the Dimona nuclear complex, and the Ben-Gurion international airport. After that, on the fake mini-states— Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait etc. Collapse them. They are a waste of space.

“Them”. Again. It is (almost) always them…

When “Boris”-idiot and others used to talk about importing “skilled workers”, I assumed —I thought maybe too cynically at the time— that what was meant was “Indians that can work a computer” (as I put it on the blog).

Even I, though, was not cynical enough to think that the “skilled worker” visa designation would or could be perverted to the extent that blacks and browns etc whose only skill is flipping burgers or delivering takeaway curries would be called “skilled workers”, and allowed into the UK on that basis. Mad.

Probably planned, though. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

This country is so ****** now, that only methods consisting partly of a mixture of Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, and Dzerzhinsky are likely to be able to save it, or to salvage a future from the wreckage.

[“Having spent two years attending marches around central London during 2020-22, I can assure you they achieve absolutely nothing.

Nobody will hear about them, if they’re reported at all it will be inaccurate, nothing will change.

Focus on building parallel systems outside of centralised control. New systems of culture, economy and even governance are the way forward.

And don’t expect anyone to do anything for you. Especially not the state.”]

Talking point

I happened to see online a recent 7-minute Sky News clip about a place on the front-line between Russian and Kiev-regime military formations. 2,000 out of the original 100,000+ population were still living in the partly-ruined city.

One man stuck there was describing life as lived in that place and said that people were (in the translated words) “eating grass“. That was used in the headline as well.

Well, I could understand some of what he was saying, and the word used was not (in Russian anyway) the word for “grass”, but something called “portulak“. I looked it up. Turns out that the English word is “purslane“:

“Portulaca oleracea (common purslane, also known as little hogweed, or pursley)[3] is a succulent plant in the family Portulacaceae. All parts of the plant are edible raw or cooked... All parts of purslane are edible raw or cooked. The seeds can be eaten raw or used to make flour.[30]

The plant may be eaten as a leaf vegetable.[31] William Cobbett noted that it was “eaten by Frenchmen and pigs when they can get nothing else. Both use it in salad, that is to say, raw”.[32] It has a slightly sour and salty taste and is eaten throughout much of Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Mexico.[5][33] The stems, leaves, and flower buds are all edible raw or cooked.[34] Purslane may be used fresh as a salad,[35] stir-fried, or cooked as spinach is, and because of its mucilaginous quality it also is suitable for soups and stews.” [Wikipedia]

Still a terrible situation for those unfortunate civilians, of course, but is it really so hard for Sky News, with all their resources, to get it right?

Warn them off. If they ignore the warning, sink them.

[“Putin: Western companies were leaving Russia crying.
When some companies were leaving under pressure from Western European governments, our friends from those countries were almost crying. Russia provided Western companies with a large market, and Moscow has many friends in Europe, said Russian President Vladimir Putin.“]

I saw, when I was last in Moscow (2007) that some Russians, working for large Western companies and firms, had hitched their wagons firmly to the Anglo-American horse. When sanctions were applied, those Russians were left out in the cold.

[“Grushko: The EU’s stance on the parameters for resolving the conflict in Ukraine excludes Europe from the negotiation process.

“If you want peace, you must first stop supporting the regime. In fact, the position they have expressed regarding the final parameters for resolving the conflict essentially excludes Europeans from that negotiation process,” said Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko.“]

Ah…that rings a bell. Grushko…

Just checked. Yes, and as I was just surmising, that Grushko is the son of Viktor Grushko (1930-2001), the one-time colleague and boss of Oleg Gordievsky, the intelligence officer, spy, and then famous defector of the 1980s. They both served at the same time in the First Chief Directorate of the KGB (now the SVR), and Grushko senior became its Deputy Head, right up to the official disbandment of the KGB in 1991, and transition of the First Chief Directorate into the SVR (External Intelligence Service).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Grushko

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oleg_Gordievsky

Ironically, in view of his risky espionage against the KGB, and his famously perilous interrogation and later escape, Gordievsky (1938-2025) outlived Grushko by many years, dying at age 86 as against Grushko’s 71 years. Seems that being a “double agent” is sometimes not as risky as vodka, smoking, and Soviet careerism (presuming —I do not, in fact, know— that Grushko senior indulged in all three).

Incidentally, I was just looking at that “Stalin skyscraper”, the Russian Foreign Ministry building, shown in the tweet; a building now dwarfed by the “capitalist” skyscrapers behind it in the Moscow International Business Center, aka Moscow-City, hardly any of which existed when I was first in Moscow in 1993, or even when I was again in the city in 2007.

[Moscow International Business Center, aka Moscow-City; also showing the Foreign Ministry building at far right of photograph]

I think that, of the cities I have visited, Moscow has changed the most over the years, with the single exception of Doha (Qatar), which in 2026 is a completely different city to the one(s) I visited in both 2001 and 2008.

Well, a pretty poor week, only 4/10, though that was still enough to beat political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 3/10.

I knew the answers to questions 1, 2, 4, and 10.

“They” are a horrible tribe.

…and which (((element))), Goodwin, has been behind most of that indoctrination and brainwashing? Yes, “them” (again).

Incidentally, a goodly (and increasing) proportion of the “younger generation” in both France and the UK are really neither French nor British. Non-whites born in France and the UK.

…and her first degree was from the University of Manchester…

If it is “war”, as people of that sort often claim, then in extremis they themselves can be executed in the field (in the streets of Paris).

Talking point

[“The Church has been in schism since the mid twentieth century. People are only now realising it.

There is the Catholic Church, which rose from Sacred Tradition, with the deposit of faith, celebrating the Mass of the Ages.

Then there is the New Order, which sometimes goes by Holocaustianity, replacing Tradition with novelty, so subtly most people do not notice until it is too late. Like a frog in increasingly boiling water. High altars gone, nave tables in, the Sacrifice gets demoted to a Jewish meal. They revert to the passover which was fulfilled in Christ; the Mass of the Ages is suppressed; prayerful posture such as kneeling and receiving communion on the tongue is discouraged; homosexuality and women in positions of leadership is encouraged, by act if not decree; universal language of the Church is replaced with a thousand vernacular dialects; good priests are silenced, their obedience weaponised, whilst bad bishops are promoted, the very ones who push lgbtq; the catechism is infected with just enough vagueness and ambiguity to sow confusion.

The Church cannot change her teaching. Yet, the New Order will be quiet on issues they should speak out on, and vocal on issues they should remain quiet on. The New Order hierarchy uses enough abstractions to make it seem like the Church has “modernised,” where she cannot and should not. From the mass migration of Mohammedans, to the death penalty.

Modernism is the enemy of the Catholic Church, and the fruit of the New Order.

Lefebvre’s warnings were prophetic.“]

Another interesting “Matt and Julia” vlog about “the real Iran” (and a few memories of my own)

Persian food can be very nice indeed. I often recall the food prepared by a Persian lady in London, cooked as a kindness for a friend of mine (and hers), an aristocratic lady from East Prussia displaced by both the Second World War and the decolonizing nonsense in the East Africa of the 1950s.

That Persian food was sent across the road, via one of the Persian lady’s adult sons, packed in takeaway-type foil containers. Fantastic stuff.

As to those Persians, they had a lucky escape. The father of the family had been an MP in Iran, was I think strongly connected to the Shah, and had been hanged after the Shah had been deposed. The family lost pretty much everything in Iran, but the lady herself was allowed to leave thanks to some kind of family influence. Fortunately, her two sons were both students at Imperial College in London. A flat in Little Venice had been bought as somewhere for them to live while studying. That became the home for the three of them and their little cat.

Of course, a mansion flat in Little Venice is hardly poverty (the pop group, Bros, were their nearest neighbours), but back in Iran they had had rural estates (near Shiraz, I think) and numbers of servants.

Nice people. They thought that my German friend, by then in her 60s, ate too little, and should be encouraged to eat. They were right: my old friend could not cook, and tended to subsist on bread (she liked, ironically, a Jewish bread with caraway seeds, bought locally), eaten with butter and a lot of salt, and washed down with lemon tea or sparkling water.

I still remember how nice the Persian food, cooked by that Persian lady, was. My friend used to share it with me, if I were around when it was delivered.

Small world: I was dining at the Persians’ one evening, for the first and last time in fact, in company with both my
German friend and her young (20-something) step-grand-daughter, when the subject of the contemporaneous Darius Guppy trial came up [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darius_Guppy]. The Persian family had known Guppy as a small boy, Guppy being half-Persian; the Persian lady referred to him as having been “a nice boy”.

Many years later, about 24 years in fact, in 2017, I gave a half-hour political-legal talk at the then-popular London Forum. Afterwards, who should come to to me and introduce himself but Darius Guppy. A personable fellow, who had the interesting knack of being able to appear as if from nowhere, then later disappear the same way…

I did not of course refer to his 1993 trial and imprisonment, but I did tell him about the Persians with whom I had been acquainted and who knew Guppy through having known his mother, a folk singer who was involved with a film that won an Oscar; I once owned one of her albums. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shusha_Guppy.

I mentioned to Guppy that, as an Amazon Top 50 reviewer, I had once reviewed his interesting memoirs, Roll the Dice, on Amazon (that being before the Jew-Zionist lobby had my very popular reviews expunged).

Guppy is or was a great friend of “Boris-idiot” (Boris Johnson), via their Eton and Oxford days.

As said, small world.

All the crates are designated as “Apple”, which is an unlikely description (particularly looking at the nuclear hazard symbols)…

SS-Ahnenerbe.

Melenchon’s supporters and voters are mostly like him— not really French.

British political life, as mediated by the msm, is just a bad joke. Are we expected to take the rote-learned mantras of monkeys-on-sticks as something serious?

Excellent.

Thoughts out of season

Demographic collapse. Something that has engaged me for a number of years, perhaps triggered in part by my own increasing age (I was 70 in September 2026).

I notice that other thinkers into the future are also increasingly interested in the question; Nick Griffin for one (see his Substack blog).

In the part of the country where I live, on the southern coast of England, the ageing population is very evident. Not only in hospitals but also in supermarkets etc, it appears that almost everyone is well above retirement age. At 70, I should be considered “senior”, to put it politely, but (albeit that many think that I look many years younger than my real age) I at least feel fairly youthful compared to most of the shoppers around me, many of whom require sticks, Zimmer frames, mobility scooters etc.

Will robots save our society, or will they —literally— just support the aged as our whole society becomes totally sclerotic?

The crunch has not quite arrived. 2040?

Gloomy thoughts for a late-Autumnal day.

Both the First World War, and that of 1939-1945, did not start without a build-up. One sees the Western ruling circles and cabals pushing non-stop for conflict with Russia over (supposedly) the war between Russia and the Jew/Ukrainian-thug regime in Ukraine, a war which really has nothing to do, in its ground-reality, with the West, or NATO, let alone with the UK, which has never had more than peripheral contact with Ukraine over the past thousand years.

Were the West to stop supporting the brutal, corrupt, and shambolic Kiev dictatorship with arms and money (etc), the war would fizzle out in weeks. However, that result does not interest the NWO/ZOG cabals which are fuelling the conflict.

The result may be that Russia is pushed and pushed until it strikes with its one real trump card, its nuclear arsenal, at the societies of Western and Central Europe.

The USA would probably strand back, not respond. In the final analysis, the NATO treaty is just a piece of paper. I doubt that the USA would want its 100 biggest cities destroyed for the sake of the cities and military/naval installations of Poland, Germany, France…or the UK (probably the most exposed country of all in some respects).

The Cold War has long vanished into history. There is now no Soviet Union, with an expansionist and Marxist-Leninist ideology.

(a number of tweeters saying that there is no magazine in place; true, in theory, though, there could still be a round “up the spout”).

One has to consider a. why Muslim women want to join the UK police; and b. why they want to join the specialist firearms units.

Cut off all help to the Kiev regime.

Welcome back, brave young woman.

Not completely historically correct, but the main point is valid.

Yes, there have been a large number of cases over the years and decades, in the USA, UK, and elsewhere, of “antisemitic” vandalism (and other types of incident) in fact perpetrated by Jews trying to bolster the “Jews are victims” narrative(s).

Stray thought

I happened to see, yesterday, a brief segment of some political discussion programme featuring the dim-witted Con Party MP, Joy Morrissey. I wrote a short piece about her last year:

“Ecce Joy Morrissey, “Conservative” fake, and MP for Beaconsfield

Translation: “I am not British. I was born in Indiana, and brought up in Ohio. I only came to the UK in the first place to get a degree at the LSE. I married an EU citizen, and then divorced him to marry another. I thereby got the legal right to stay in the UK. I also got the right to work in the UK, but in fact never exercised that right, except that I was briefly and totally unsuccessfully a soft-porn would-be actress. Never mind; my second husband has plenty of money, so I never needed, in 18 years, to get any real job or profession… I just played at Con Party politics— in a think tank, with a Con MP, and as a local Con Party councillor. I then tried, unsuccessfully, to be selected as Con Party candidate for Mayor of London. I did, however, eventually get selected for the safe Con seat at Beaconsfield, because the existing Con MP, Dominic Grieve, was expelled from Con Party by “Boris”-idiot, whom I supported. I have been MP since 2019. In those 6 years, I have accomplished absolutely nothing, and, despite Beaconsfield having been (before I was MP) a very safe seat, my vote at Beaconsfield has fallen from 56% in 2019 to 38% in 2024. I supported uneducated, uncultured and stupid nobody Liz Truss as PM (for 49 days) as well as “Boris”-idiot. I doubt that I will be MP for much longer, but in the meantime will continue to support Israel and its UK Jewish lobby, and support mass immigration, as well as blagging my unmerited and generous salary and expenses.”

[Joy Morrissey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joy_Morrissey]

I lived for 6 months (2001-2002) at Higher Denham, Bucks, within the Beaconsfield constituency, so that idiot would have been my MP had I stayed in the area. At least Fate spared me that.“

The woman wants to destroy what is left of the Welfare State, and also throw money and other support at Israel and the Kiev regime dictatorship.

A total waste of space.
