[Sam Melia and Laura Towler, of Patriotic Alternative]
Regular readers of the blog will be aware that I have blogged in recent days about the very unjust prosecution, conviction, and sentence visited upon Sam Melia and, consequently, upon his wife, Laura Towler, and their children (one very young, the other expected to be born sometime in the next few weeks).
I am not a member of Patriotic Alternative, and am personally unacquainted with the couple, but this is a disgraceful persecution, not merely an unjust prosecution.
I often criticize Toby Young and his “Free Speech Union” (for turning a blind eye when social-national people such as Alison Chabloz, “Sven Longshanks”, and indeed me, are harried by the State at the behest of the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby), but credit where due— even Toby Young has criticized this latest curb on freedom of expression: see https://www.noticer.news/sam-melia-jailed-two-years-for-sticker-campaign-patriotic-alternative/.
Prior to his sentencing, Sam Melia made a statement, alongside Laura Towler, and Mark Collett; Laura Towler also made a brave and defiant statement after her husband had been taken away:
The crowdfunder referred to by Sam Melia, set up mainly to support his wife and children during his involuntary absence, has now reached, as of time of writing, £52,331. The more the better. These seem to me to be good people. Help these people and, at the same time, stick it to the System. Minimum donation is £4.
Incidentally, Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch) is still in prison, inter alia for having criticized “the usual suspects” on his podcasts. He too has a crowdfunder, in order to help him both in prison and upon release (probably around August 2024). https://www.givesendgo.com/SupportSven.
As regular readers will also know, I myself am also to be sentenced (next week) (for having blogged the truth over the past years).

George Galloway calls on Jeremy Corbyn: "Announce an alliance of the remaining socialists in the country, you lead it, I'll support it, and let's go. Time is running out." pic.twitter.com/itnNct7vtK
Corbyn is rather underwhelming, as I have said previously and for a number of years. Poor (almost non-existent) academic and work background, far too interested in the blacks and browns as contrasted with English people and, despite his opposition to Israel as a state, far too ready to give credence to all the “holocaust” stuff.
A SINGLE anti-war candidate just got elected in a free and fair election, and within 24 hours the media class are slandering him and the entire UK Government has been weaponised against him.
God forbid we have a voice for PEACE in Parliament!

My own home area is not much better. This is the real UK, while this rotten misgovernment (with Starmer-Labour support) throws taxpayers’ money at the Kiev regime, Israel, and the Jewish lobby in the UK (particularly the “Community Security Trust” [“CST”] strongarm and snoop org). About £15M per year to the CST alone (billions to the others): see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_Security_Trust#Funding_and_finances.

The corrupt “two main parties” scam is now trying to criminalize anything and everything they decide to label “extremist”. Fight it.
It isn't centrist or moderate to break every record on net migration, year after year, and then refuse to monitor the results of your policy decision. It's extremism, driven by ideology. https://t.co/pRR7CLFoSa
I am in absolute disbelief, how are we now a country that refuses to give the data to its people specially because they ‘don’t want it to inflame tensions’? I cannot possibly be reading this right, surely?
Behind that, the reason is because the System has an agenda: google “Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan”.
You're undoubtedly correct. The really big question, therefore, is why DO successive governments and civil servants support such insanely high immigration figures, given the enormous strain it puts on the economy? I truly have no idea, unless the Kalergi plan is really true 😦
They did this with GCSE results based on country background of kids about ten years ago, the results showed what everybody already knew so they simply disappeared in the hope nobody would notice.
Islamism is only one existential threat to Britain. (Political) Zionism is another, mass immigration and/or “migration-invasion” by non-Europeans generally is yet another. Societal breakdown and the allied cultural trash is another. There are others too. Those strands are woven together.
Goodwin is very pro-Israel, very pro the Jewish/Zionist lobby. He makes some good (though very obvious) points about UK society and politics, but his limited ideological perspective leads him to partly-incorrect conclusions, as in his espousal of the “controlled opposition” Reform UK party.
The latest from the bookmakers is that George Galloway (Workers Party) is odds-on to win, followed by (around 6/4) Azhar Ali, the former Labour candidate disowned by Starmer, Azhar Ali therefore being an independent candidate in reality, though “Labour” on the ballot paper. The next in line is the LibDem, trailing the frontrunners at about 65/1. Reform UK (Simon Danczuk) is at 100/1. The rest of the field of 11— 1,000/1.
This is now between Galloway and “Labour” Azhar Ali. Former Labour MP Danczuk only got 1.8% (as Independent) in 2017, after having been sacked. The LibDem may do better than expected, being a white man and alternative to Ali and also to Scotsman George Galloway, whose campaign has been all about Gaza, and whose voters are (90%+) Muslims. Still, if I had to bet, I would probably go with the perceived favourite, Galloway.
The by-election is between two candidates trying to capture the Pakistani Muslim vote. Where do the English voters go? They are still the majority in the constituency, numerically, yet have been frozen out.
Symptomatic of System politics in the UK?
I have no sympathy for Danczuk, and little for Reform UK, but will be interested to see how they go. Had Reform UK put up a better candidate, it might have gone close. As it is, I daresay that the white (English) vote will be split several ways.
Israel declares war on “antisemitism” and “anti-Semites”
“Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikii said that “the time has come to move from the defensive to the offensive, and to ensure that the perpetrators of anti-Semitism are identified and dealt with.
“The time has come to move from the defensive to the offensive and to ensure that the perpetrators of antisemitism are identified and dealt with,” Chikli said.
The initiative will include a push for a government proclamation to improve Israel’s global standing and legislation to target organizations, including NGOs, and individuals engaged in antisemitism.“
[Jerusalem Post]
Well, there it is. “They” want a war, and are about to launch one.
In fact, Israel already targets (via local volunteers in the UK and elsewhere) anyone opposed to Jewish/Zionist global domination.
I myself am due to be sentenced next month, following my conviction in November 2023 for political “offences” under the notorious “bad law” Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).

What the Israelis are saying about why the Israeli response on 7 October 2023 was at first very slow, and then incompetent (killing Israeli civilians indiscriminately).
Needless to say, the “Pearl Harbor” idea, i.e. that the Israeli leadership knew of the attack plan but allowed it to happen in order to be able to flatten Gaza with a figleaf of justification, is not mooted.

Pollard was granted Israeli citizenship while incarcerated. He relocated to Israel in 2020.
I suppose that the Israelis thought that they owed Pollard something. After all, when he desperately appealed to the Israeli Embassy in Washington —when the FBI was on his tail— the Israeli Embassy guards were ordered to shut the gates and not let him back in. He was then immediately arrested by the FBI. He did 30 years in Federal custody, altogether (inc. 2 years of pre-trial detention).

“[Canadian] Justice Minister Arif Virani has defended a new power in the online harms bill to impose house arrest on someone who is feared to commit a hate crime in the future – even if they have not yet done so already.
The person could be made to wear an electronic tag, if the attorney-general requests it, or ordered by a judge to remain at home, the bill says.
Bill C-63 is designed to curb the proliferation of hate online, but it also establishes a new hate-crime offence, which would carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
Mr. Virani said the hate-crime offence would only be applied if coupled with another crime and the life sentence would only apply in the most serious of cases – not, for example, for mischief to a garage door.
Mr. Virani said the current bill followed studies of the experiences of other countries, including Britain, France and Germany, which have produced similar legislation. Some have had to reverse course after challenges and criticism.
Since it was published on Monday, some lawyers and constitutional experts have raised fears that Bill C-63 could chill free speech.
The bill would allow people to file complaints to the Canadian Human Rights Commission over what they perceive as hate speech online – including, for example, off-colour jokes by comedians. People found guilty of posting hate speech could have to pay victims up to $20,000 in compensation.
But experts including internet law professor Michael Geist have said even a threat of a civil complaint – with a lower burden of proof than a court of law – and a fine could have a chilling effect on freedom of expression.“

Look at what has happened in the UK. Material (comments, cartoons) are supposed to fall into unlawfulness only if “grossly” offensive. In theory, remarks, cartoons merely “offensive” are not unlawful, but in practice one finds (as in my own case last November) that once the police, CPS and courts think that XYZ is “offensive”, then XYZ becomes, almost automatically, “grossly offensive“, and the maker is then convicted accordingly (as I was).
Free speech has then been further chilled, or killed…
Canada is asking for something akin to civil war by enacting tyrannical laws of this sort.

All “three main parties” (System parties) and their msm offshoots have, in the American phrase, “bet the farm” on the happy shiny “multikulti society”, the outward face of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan. The only thing is— it does not work (not in the way presented, and the European public are not supposed to see the real plan, i.e. a mixed-race population ruled undemocratically —and largely by Jews and part-Jews— i.e. a new pseudo-European “elite” but also tied up with the old elites via money).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan [but be aware that Jew-Zionist groups such as the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] have for some time been asking for volunteers to work with them, using their individual Wikipedia accounts to “edit” (vandalize) Wikipedia articles on a number of historical, political, and philosophical topics].

“Did you know that Bill Gates’ primary residence in Seattle boasts 7 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a 60-foot pool with an underwater music system, a 2,500-square-foot gym, a 1,000-square-foot dining room, six kitchens, and a trampoline room with a 20-foot ceiling?
And let’s not forget the 2,100-square-foot library, a home theater that seats up to 20 guests, and a massive 300-square-foot reception hall with room for 200 guests. And there’s also a spacious guesthouse, a garage that fits 23 cars, and an artificial stream stocked with fish. Depending on the source, its value is estimated at $127 to $170 million. But wait, there’s more!
Gates also owns homes in Del Mar, California at sea level ($43 million), Indian Wells, California ($12.5 million), Wellington, Florida ($8.7 million), and a ranch in Wyoming ($8.9 million). A fun little tidbit about his Florida property: In 2016, he paid $13.5 million for the neighboring house. Rumor has it he’s also bought four other properties on the same street, making him the sole resident of the entire block.
While Bill doesn’t own a mega-yacht, he regularly charters them for his vacations. He also has a penchant for spending big on luxury cars, and let’s not forget his four private jets. In interviews, he’s mentioned that purchasing private jets is his “guilty pleasure.”
Now, isn’t it ironic that one of the main proponents of reducing our carbon footprint lives like this? With such an expansive estate and luxurious lifestyle, we can’t help but wonder how much his own carbon footprint is ballooning. If the people who are urging us to reduce our carbon footprints are living lives of excess, how can we trust their motivations and the validity of their claims about man-made climate change?“

I had not previously heard of this person or of his crimes. It does beg the questions around Nature v.

In other words, someone evidently monstrous, but at the same time someone made monstrous, arguably. It would be interesting to compare the life-stories of his several siblings.
Having said that, there are, I think, still many good people in the NHS, but the structure and management of the Service is obviously unwieldy and inefficient.

The former Tory deputy chair, Lee Anderson, has refused to apologise for comments that saw him suspended from the party
I have a shrewd idea (or maybe not so shrewd— we shall see…) that “30p Lee” Anderson may have jettisoned the Conservative Party rather than the other way around. After all, the Con Party is staring down the barrel of an electoral meltdown which may finish off arguably the longest-surviving political party in the world.
The Conservative Party was looking at quite likely defeat in Anderson’s constituency, but now maybe not (if Anderson is reinstated). If Anderson is not reinstated, he may well be able to stay on as MP either as an Independent or, more likely, after having stood as Reform Party candidate. He now has real national profile.
The maverick MP has been suspended from being under the Conservative Party whip.
Naturally, I do not agree with his statement that London is “run by Muslims”. Sadiq Khan is from a Muslim background, but has been pretty much in the Jew-Zionist pocket for many years.
It would be more accurate to characterize Sadiq Khan as “anti-white”.
As to Anderson himself, I suggest that he is trying to bolster his position vis a vis the General Election expected later this year.
David Marquand, a former MP for Ashfield (1966-1977; he is still alive, at 89): “Originally a tentative supporter of Blair’s New Labour, he has since become a trenchant critic, arguing that “New Labour has ‘modernised’ the social-democratic tradition out of all recognition”, even while retaining the over-centralisation and disdain for the radical intelligentsia of the old “Labourite” tradition.” [Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Marquand.
Marquand defected to the SDP and then was honourable enough to step down as MP, not contesting the by-election.
In fact, Marquand was himself rather intellectual:
“Marquand addressed Britain’s relative economic decline in The Unprincipled Society (1988) and The New Reckoning (1997). He argued that this decline was caused by Britain’s failure to become a developmental state like France, Germany and Japan. In those countries state intervention had encouraged industrial development and had facilitated the necessary adjustments to competition. Britain, however, was wedded to an economic liberalism which prevented the state from undertaking the necessary measures to meet the country’s developmental needs.[7] In The New Reckoning Marquand claimed: “The economies that have succeeded more spectacularly have been those fostered by developmental states, where public power, acting in concert with private interest, has induced market forces to flow in the desired direction”.[8]” [Wikipedia].
In fact, Ashfield is not quite as “safe Labour” as the history might suggest superficially. Gloria de Piero won in 2010 by a majority of under half a point (0.4%, 192 votes) from a LibDem.
While de Piero’s majority increased in 2015 (as the LibDems imploded), in 2017 she beat the Conservative candidate by less than one point (0.9%, 441 votes). An Ashfield Independent came third with over 9% of the vote.
In 2019, Lee Anderson won convincingly: 39.3% of the vote, followed in second (27.6%) by another “Ashfield Independent”, Jason Zadrozny [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Zadrozny], who has had a chequered political and personal history. In third place came Labour, with only 24.4%.
Zadrozny is going to contest the seat at GE 2024.
So far, apart from Anderson (who may or may not be standing as Conservative Party candidate, depending on whether he gets back the Conservative whip), only the Ashfield Independent and Reform UK are presently known to be likely to stand at GE 2024, but a full field is almost guaranteed. There may be a dozen or more candidates.
At first, I thought that Anderson could probably be written off as post-GE 2024 MP, but now am not so sure. He has now (whether by design or not) distanced himself from the unpopular Conservative leadership —and possibly from the equally-unpopular Conservative Party— is anti-EU, anti-migration invasion etc, and is now known nationwide. He must have at least a chance of retaining his seat. If he does, and if he also retains it as a “Conservative” MP, he might be one of 100 or even as few as 50 such MPs. Who knows what might then happen?“
[from this blog on a previous day].
It may be that Anderson would be better off electorally standing either for Reform UK or as Independent than he would be as a Conservative Party candidate. Voters like “celebrity”; look at how Caroline Lucas has built up her constituency vote at Brighton Pavilion over the years, and that despite Green Party candidates elsewhere generally losing their deposits with votes under 5%.

Sam Melia
I happened to see the communique below from Laura Towler of Patriotic Alternative:
“Morning all. Bit of an update about Sam as he’s still under direction not to talk about his trial on social media.
He is being sentenced on Friday. There is a chance he will get a custodial sentence, but there is also the possibility he won’t. We are preparing for the worst but hoping for the best. It’s a weird feeling right now because we don’t know whether this will be our last week together for a while, but despite this Sam is in a good place. When you can hold your head up high and honestly say your intentions were good, and when you have the truth on your side, you can take whatever is thrown at you.
Sam has recorded a video that will be uploaded after Friday, sharing his thoughts and a message for you all. If he gets a custodial sentence, that will be how he speaks. If he walks away a free man, he will be able to post again.
Pictures are from last week when we went away for a few nights as a family and it was really lovely to spend that time together.“

Talking point
That may or may not be historically-accurate, but look what has happened in the ~76 years since then:
Now, the Gaza Strip enclave looks as if it too may soon revert to Jewish/Israeli occupation and, perhaps, settlement or resettlement by Israeli Jews, once the present Gazan population is killed or driven out.
“In a 1931 interview with a Leipzig newspaper editor, Adolf Hitler made a passionate declaration of the true significance of his National Socialist movement:
“The Frenchman Gobineau and the Englishman Chamberlain were inspired by our concept of a new order-a new order, I tell you, or if you prefer, an ideological glimpse into history in accordance with the basic principle of the blood.
We do not judge by merely artistic or military standards or even by purely scientific ones. We judge by the spiritual energy which a people is capable of putting forth, which will enable it in ten years to recapture what it has lost in a thousand years of warfare.
I intend to set up a thousand year Reich and anyone who supports me in battle is a fellow-fighter for a unique spiritual-I would almost say divine-creation.
At the decisive moment the decisive factor is not the ratio of strength but the spiritual force employed. Betrayal of the nation is possible even when no crime has been committed, in other words when a historical mission has not been fulfilled.”

Another idiot. He has no idea of what he is saying. Meaningless verbiage.
In classic British fashion our elites are now working overtime to turn a crucial debate about the failures of multiculturalism and the threat from radical Islamism into a debate about Islamophobia inside the Tory party. We are not a serious country.https://t.co/24s88IcbwF
I can agree with some, perhaps much, of what is written by Matt Goodwin, but he sees the threat to Western civilization as coming only from radical Islamism. He misses out several other basically “ethnic” threats— the Jew-Zionist influence and control, embedded within “Western” power structures; the non-Muslim black/brown influxes (and consequent emergence of mixed-race populations within Europe); also, the outwardly peaceful Chinese population influx.
In relation to the last-mentioned, I cannot do better than to quote the famous maxim of Sun Tzu: “to win without war, this is the supreme excellence” [Sun Tzu, The Art of War]. Peking (Beijing) is playing a long game, as always.
The multi-headed threat is a major reason why the West is losing.
Matt Goodwin’s material is a classic example: he concentrates on only one of several threats (extreme Islamism, given strength by the Muslim part of the migration-invasion of Europe).
Goodwin scarcely recognises the other ethnic-centred threats to our culture and civilization and, when it comes to the Jewish/Zionist element, vociferously supports it!

“EU Fear of Russia Degenerates into War Weariness – Bloomberg…
The protests of farmers in Europe, which erupted in the third year of the Ukrainian conflict, serve as a clear illustration of the fact that Kyiv’s Western allies are exhausted by military actions and their consequences, writes a Bloomberg columnist.
As the journalist reminds, the French government eventually managed to reassure its farmers by promising to protect them from Ukrainian imports. Chicken producers were especially afraid of eastern competitors, claiming that Ukrainian chicken was imported in huge volumes, it was extremely difficult to track, and the income from its sales enriched large corporations.
French President Emmanuel Macron this month even “pointed his finger” at the Ukrainian “chicken tycoon” Yuriy Kosyuk, owner of the MHP holding – the French leader warned that Paris “is not interested in enriching this man.”
The dissatisfaction of farmers may seem like a side problem to some – especially against the backdrop of difficulties with the bill on the allocation of additional aid to Kiev, which is stuck in the US Congress – but in fact it demonstrates well “how the Europeans, who, against the backdrop of stagnation in the economy and the prospects for the return of Donald Trump, are not very inclined to be heroic, fear of Russia degenerates into war fatigue.”
“Jewish leaders reacted with fury last night after a pro-Palestine slogan was projected on to Big Ben.
Activists pulled off the stunt in full view of dozens of police monitoring a protest outside Parliament on Wednesday night. Scotland Yard said the officers could not act because it was ‘not a criminal offence’.“
[Daily Mail]
A few months ago, the Jews arranged for the Israeli flag to be projected for a day or more onto 10 Downing Street. Blatant supremacism. That was far more offensive to many, including me.

The Jew Zelensky trying to fool the same people all over again.
Ukraine (Kiev regime) has fewer and fewer soldiers, especially on the frontlines, even fewer experienced soldiers, and a shortage of arms and ammunition. Its economy is in ruins, and up to a third of the entire population has relocated out of the country.
Russia has millions of reserve troops being trained and ready for deployment; has hugely expanded its production of arms and ammunition; the Russian hydrocarbon sector is bringing in hundreds of billions of dollars (or equivalent) in oil and gas sales; the domestic Russian economy is normal; new trade links worldwide are opening up. Russia’s nuclear backstop is being upgraded, and links with Iran etc are bringing up thousands of drones ready for deployment. Russia also has 6,000+ tactical and strategic nuclear weapons and a variety of delivery systems.
“Ukraine” will not launch a new counter-offensive, certainly not a successful one, in 2024. Russia, though, may launch one, and with every chance of success.
The U.S. Presidential election will quite likely bring a new American president to office. If that individual cuts off the supply of money and arms to the Kiev regime, the war will be over in weeks not months.

GE 2024
Saw an opinion piece in the Yorkshire Post about the upcoming 2024 General Election. It seems to me to be mainly right:
“Speaking to friends and colleagues, and listening in to conversations in the pub or on the train, I am becoming increasingly convinced that the public has made up its mind about the current government, and there is little Rishi Sunak and his team can do to change that.
They can keep talking, but voters are not listening anymore. The problem for the Conservatives isn’t a wave of enthusiasm for Sir Keir Starmer and Labour. Far from it. This isn’t the ‘Things Can Only Get Better’ vibe that swept Tony Blair to power in 1997, nor even the Corbyn mini surge that cost Theresa May her majority in 2017.
No, the problem for the Conservatives is not that their supporters are running to Labour, but that, as demonstrated in recent by-elections, Tory voters are simply staying at home on polling day.
Is that any surprise? I doubt that many people who gave Boris Johnson a thumping victory in 2019 thought they were voting for open borders, rampant inflation, an economic recession, and the highest tax burden since World War II. The Tories have only themselves to blame.
Sure, the pandemic followed by the war in Ukraine were unprecedented events that helped blow the government off course, but the Conservatives have lost sight of who they are supposed to be fighting for.
Imagine that over the next few months everything goes right for the Prime Minister – the establishment blob is finally defeated over asylum seekers and flights take off for Rwanda, and the boats are stopped crossing the Channel; the economy comes out of recession and begins to grow, inflation is tamed, and the Chancellor cuts taxes in the spring Budget.
Would it be enough to swing things Rishi’s way? I am starting to doubt it.
Any politician who wants to reconnect with the voters who could propel them to power should accompany me on my early morning commute. Catch any early train or bus into Leeds, Sheffield or Wakefield and take a look around the carriage. I guarantee you will see the nation’s grafters who work hard in often poorly paid jobs, pay their taxes, obey the law, and do their best to raise their families.
Women and ethnic minorities are overrepresented on these journeys, and I sometimes play a game with myself trying to guess their jobs – health staff, cleaners, construction workers, shop staff and call centre operatives.
If a party wants to gain power it should ensure that every single policy in the manifesto passes one simple test – will it make the lives of these people better?
The reason politicians, both left and right, have become so disconnected from their voters is that you don’t often see them shivering in the pouring rain at a bus stop at 5am, or catching the 6.18 crowded train into Leeds.
As the general election gets closer we are starting to get some idea of what a Labour government will look like, and it is not an encouraging sight.
…the radical ideas, like the green growth plan, have to be ditched. Anyone expecting sweeping progressive changes under Labour is likely to be sorely disappointed.
Instead Labour seems increasingly likely to concentrate on toxic culture war issues that mean little to most people beyond the ideologues and fanatics.
Take for example two recent policy pledges. One is to impose VAT on private school fees, and the other is to close so-called loopholes in the fox hunting ban by outlawing drag hunting.
Sure the vindictive class warriors will love this, but I look around the carriage on my early morning train and ask myself, would such policies make the lives of my fellow passengers any better? No, of course not. It would not make the blindest bit of difference.
Come the general election voters will be faced with an uninspiring choice between a Conservative party that has run out of steam, and a Labour party that never had any puff in the first place.
I am convinced that if any party produced a manifesto that passed my early morning train test it would win by a landslide.“
[Bill Carmichael, in the Yorkshire Post].
Not 100% right, but 90%+.
The problem is that only social-nationalism can really satisfy Britain’s requirements, but the “Zionist”/pro-Israel element jumps upon even tiny social-national parties, movements, fora etc, and makes constant complaint to police, regulators etc, in order to prevent any tiny social-national party etc becoming a large one.
Our form of Parliamentary democracy has failed because (((a certain element))) has choked it.
Until the ground is cleared, it will be hard for Britain to start to live again.

Hugely enjoying Liz Truss explaining to an American audience that the Right have been denied power in the UK for far too long. Just wait till they discover what her last job was .. pic.twitter.com/4LuoctOdYD
If anyone —such as the absurd political “ho”, Liz Truss— thinks that bureaucracy in the UK is worse than that of the USA, he or —in this case, she— has evidently never lived in the United States.
Liz Truss is a dangerous woman, though, despite her idiocy. Instead of accepting her political demise and defenestration, she is “doubling the bet” by saying that the Deep State etc got rid of her, and that she was right about the economy and society all along.
Truss’s strategy is obvious. The Conservative Party is going straight down with the electorate. Nothing can save it. The only chance, and a slight one, is that Starmer/Labour makes such a poor impression in the next few months that people will vote Con to stop Labour getting a huge majority. Very unlikely.
On that premise, Sunak, the little Indian money-juggler presently posing as Prime Minister, is toast. Maybe even before, but more likely after, GE 2024. The question then becomes who replaces Sunak. There are no candidates popular with either the public or the Conservative MPs and/or rank-and-file. On that basis, Truss seems to feel that she has as much chance as any of the other present possibilities (Mordaunt, Cleverly, Tugendhat, Suella Braverman etc).
Imagine Cleverly as Prime Minister! Or “chocolate soldier” Tugendhat. Still, Liz Truss was quite as absurd, really, as was “Boris”-idiot, as was Theresa May.
If, as predicted, Conservative MPs reduce in number to 100, or even 50, the pool will be small. Almost anyone in that small pool might have a chance. A chance, that is, of becoming Leader of the Conservative Party, not of becoming Prime Minister.
There it is, in a nutshell. Feral blacks (mostly), and sometimes others, uncontrolled by either society or any personal subjective value-system.

“There is no military solution to the conflict in Ukraine and it must be resolved through negotiations,” said Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
A simple mathematical calculation shows that Russia is militarily superior, and that Ukraine will not be, if the West does not intervene. However, NATO does not want war and will not go to war. It is necessary to ask for a ceasefire, because it is impossible to bring Russia to its knees in the military plan” , said the Hungarian Prime Minister.“
In fact, though Orban is correct in assuming that the Kiev regime simply cannot “win”, he is not entirely correct in assuming that there is “no military solution“, because Russia could“win”, at least to the extent of seizing all of Eastern Ukraine, and all of the Black Sea littoral.

I had assumed as much, because the Israelis have only claimed to have cleared a relatively few miles of tunnels, whereas it was said initially that Hamas has 200-300 miles of tunnels, which may or may not be interconnected. Probably some are not connected to the others.
I have to say that I find tunnels fascinating, but am very glad that I am not one of the soldiers (on either side) fighting either to defend them or to clear them.

“A Utah mother whose harsh parenting advice made her a YouTube influencer has been sentenced to at least four years in prison for child abuse.
The two women were arrested in August 2023 after Franke’s malnourished 12-year-old son climbed out of a window at Hildebrandt’s house in Ivins, Utah. Police said the child then ran to a neighbour’s house and asked for food and water. He had lacerations from being tied up with rope, according to police records.
“[YouTube] fans started to become suspicious in 2020, when one of her sons mentioned that he had been forced to sleep on a bean bag for seven months.
YouTube viewers combed through her archives and pointed out other disturbing and controversial methods used by Franke – such as withholding food, threatening to chop the head off a toy stuffed animal and “cancelling” Christmas as a punishment.
Franke then began appearing in YouTube videos posted by Ms Hildebrandt – a counsellor and life coach – on her site, ConneXions Classroom.
Away from the camera, however, Franke’s children were being subjected to even harsher abuse.
This included tying them up, beating and kicking them, neglecting to feed them and forcing them to work outdoors in the summer without sunscreen, resulting in serious sunburn, according to police records.
In a plea agreement, Hildebrandt stated that she either tortured the children or was aware of the abuse and that she forced one of Franke’s daughters to “jump into a cactus multiple times”.
[BBC]
Terrible, and comes against a background of too-strict American parenting, though plenty of too-indulgent parenting exists there too. I concede that, as someone without offspring, I write as a mere observer. I do think, though, that many Americans are too strict with their children, but I admit that I have also seen much of the opposite tendency (children allowed to behave and speak rather rudely).

It’s a question most parents ask themselves. And it’s one I asked myself again yesterday while reading a new forecast on how Britain’s population will change over the next twelve years —which is not a very long time at all.
The forecast, from the independent Office for National Statistics, is striking to say the least. And I suspect many people out there in the country, many of the people who are perhaps reading this Substack, will find it deeply worrying.
By the year 2036, by the time my daughter turns fifteen, Britain’s population will have grown by another 6.6 million people. In just fifteen years, in just three election cycles, the population will surge by 10 per cent, rising from 67 million people to nearly 74 million. And of the additional 6.6 million people in the country —another 6.6 million people using the NHS, the GPs, the schools, the roads, and looking for a house to buy or rent— some 6.1 million will be here because of immigration.“

Does that idiot even believe what he is saying? Ukraine (Kiev regime) cannot “win”. It cannot regain the oblasti of Donetsk, Lugansk (and/or Crimea etc). It cannot attack, in any serious way, Russia itself.
It could only achieve those objectives by drawing NATO directly into the war (leading, probably, to a world war), or by somehow contriving a palace revolution in Moscow. Neither of those possibilities is likely to take place.
I have been wondering why the Western msm obsession with Navalny. Was it because, after the death of Boris Nemtsov, Navalny was the only high-profile opposition figure in Russia? Like Nemtsov, his support was only about 5% of the population, and could never have reached even 20%.
As blogged previously, I think that Navalny was almost certainly a braver man than me (going back from exile in Germany to almost-certain arrest in Russia), and certainly a more reckless one, inter alia.
The pandemic was never “Covid”. The pandemic was cowardice.
People sat back and watched as they took a sledgehammer to small businesses.
People let them deprive their kids of 2 years of education.

The “whys and wherefores” are not yet known, as far as I can see, but the news brought to mind the old Chekist saying, “the legs of the traitor are not as long as the arms of the Cheka” [ЧК].
One of the vilest things I’ve heard on Gaza. From a public speaker outside of the Israeli government.
Andrew Roberts, from the UK House of Lords believes that there is a 2:1 ratio of Hamas fighters killed to Gazan civilians.
Roberts is, in my view, a largely ahistorical scribbler, who has posed as a kind of pseudo-aristocratic historian all his life, always having had plenty of money thanks to his father having owned both the well-known Job’s Dairy and also the UK franchise rights for Kentucky Fried Chicken (now KFC).
He is and always was pro-NWO etc. An “Atlanticist”, if you like. Now he seems to be regurgitating lying Israeli government propaganda instead of pro-Churchill ahistory.

I happened to watch an edition of Celebrity Chase quiz show (from about 6 years ago). As usual, I did not know even the names of a couple of the “celebrities”, but “Eddie the Eagle” was there and, also, Michelle Dewberry [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Dewberry].
I believe that Ms. Dewberry is now employed by GB News TV as presenter of a current affairs show.
Sadly, Ms. Dewberry proved herself entirely ignorant about politics, and pretty much everything else. Even worse than I was expecting.
Full of unwarranted self-confidence, but empty of intellectual content. Totemic of the present-day (think “Boris” Johnson, for one…).
The presenter of The Chase, Bradley Walsh, introduced Ms. Dewberry as “businesswoman and TV presenter“, I think. True up to a point. She did have a business, though I think an unsuccessful one, about 15 years ago. She is best known for having won, in 2006, The Apprentice, the TV competition run by Jewish businessman Alan Sugar.
My problem with all that is that she is one of a number of people with considerable public profile, and who opines about politics, Britain’s future etc, and yet is entirely ignorant in almost (?) all areas.
I suppose that I have to be honest and admit that, in the commonly-heard (on TV at least) phrase, “she scrubs up well“, anyway.
I see now from Wikipedia that Ms. Dewberry is now in a personal relationship with a once-successful and still affluent businessman, who is also, inter alia, a TV/radio presenter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Jordan.
Ms. Dewberry seems to be an example of a widespread problem in the UK these days, namely people posing as business successes, political experts etc when they are nothing of the sort; but it suits the msm to present them as such.
Most such people are boosted by the msm and/or politicians because it suits an agenda, in Michelle Mone’s case as an example of a *woman from *a deprived or poor background, who *via her own efforts *became “successful” and *wealthy. The David Cameron-Levita, George Osborne, Iain Dunce Duncan Smith (etc) ideology personified— and as fake as those cheats.
In fact, Michelle Mone is a fake through and through, and always has been, as seen even in her Wikipedia entry. That, however, has not stopped her from having been —ludicrously, so be it— elevated to the House of Lords; nor has it stopped her from making hundreds of millions of pounds from useless hospital equipment, sold to the NHS via contacts in the Conservative Party, together with her present husband: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Barrowman.
There is something wrong about a country that seems not to care whether someone prominent, and/or in public life proper, is a fake. Look at Iain Duncan Smith. That man has so many layers of fakery that to examine them all in detail would require a book by someone such as Tom Bower [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Bower].
We see now how history is not only misunderstood, but often faked in both its overall purport and in details. I am referring not only to the WW2 “holocaust” farrago, but to, for example, the attempts now made to present a one-sided view of European (including British) colonialism as something entirely bad, with no redeeming features.
When history is faked, how can present-day politics and intellectual life be unaffected?

Incredible, or perhaps not, that the only penalty the House of Commons itself has imposed on Benton is a 35-day suspension. Of course, the real penalty will be if there is a by-election and he loses his seat, though he would have lost it —or will lose it— at GE 2024 anyway.

I agree with tweeter “Betty’s Hotpot”/”@BigThickSlices” too. Reform UK is not properly social-national. I do not value it highly, certainly not to the extent of Matt Goodwin. Britain needs a social-national party which, sadly, does not even exist, at least as yet.
“A woman was left in shock after police allegedly told her to retrieve her stolen £30,000 Lexus car herself.
Alexandra Vlad, 32, woke up on February 6 to find her Lexus UX missing from her driveway in Newham, East London. Using a tracking app on her phone, she found the last known location of her car in Hackney, about six miles away. She called the police and provided all the information but claims she was then instructed to go and get the car herself.
Alexandra, who works in corporate finance, said: “I was more shaken by the experience of dealing with the police than the car being stolen itself. I told them what happened, and that I could see the last location of the engine. They told me they wouldn’t be there for at least an hour. It was a dodgy part of Hackney. I felt unsafe.“
[Daily Mirror]
The police are a prime example of how things generally do not work properly now in Britain, though there are many others— NHS, banks, insurance companies, the whole political and electoral system, repair of the roads, the non-existent border defences etc.
The same is true, mutatis mutandis, of the UK and the other parts of Europe. The “Great Replacement”, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan etc. Not a mere “conspiracy theory”…it is happening right in front of us.

Though the obvious thing is to talk about “co-incidence”, or perhaps the attempts —if any— by those bombing and shelling to avoid collateral damage to religious buildings, it may be that there is a supernatural element to such manifestations.
Look at the Second World War. Cologne Cathedral was left almost, not entirely, untouched while the whole central part of the city around it was flattened by bombs and, later, tank warfare.

As to Matt Goodwin, at first I thought him just a minor academic who had woken up to the madness of permitting mass immigration etc and so had, shall we say, “modified” his views.
Later, more recently, I thought that Goodwin was either trying to lay the basis for a new political movement, with himself as the director —and/but for genuine reasons— or perhaps was trying to make money out of it; his Substack blog is monetized and he now has 24,000 paying (?) subscribers.
Now I really wonder whether Goodwin is under some sort of “control”. His views as expressed have undergone a considerable metamorphosis over the past few years. Of course, people do often, and genuinely, change their views, either “just because” or because they see the impossible-to-ignore in front of them.
Goodwin’s pro-Israelism, and apparent pro-Jewish lobby views, give me cause for concern.
Goodwin is now seen often on TV.
The Substack subscription seems to be (I am unsure) about a pound or so per week. Modest, arguably, but he now has 24,000 subscribers. If they are all paying that, a very good income indeed for him (maybe £100,000+ per month. Can that be right?). Even if only a quarter or a tenth are paying £5 each month, not at all bad…
Conclusion: undecided. He may be a System puppet, creating more “controlled opposition” (and witness his support for the rather pathetic Reform UK, for Farage etc), or he may be doing what he is doing for genuine reasons, or for fame and/or money. Or a mixture of all (a “Father Gapon” situation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgy_Gapon). I just do not know.

I remember that song. 1967; I was a 10-y-o child living in Mosman, a North Shore suburb of Sydney. Different times (look at the comments appended to that YouTube video).
“Major French magazine L’Express has revealed that its prominent former editor, Philippe Grumbach, was a KGB spy for 35 years.
He counted presidents, actors and literary giants as close friends. He was a legendary figure in journalism who shaped the editorial direction of one of France’s most successful publications. When he died in 2003, Minister of Culture Jean-Jacques Aillagon said Grumbach had been “one of the most memorable and respected figures in French media”.
But he was also “Brok”, the KGB spy.
Extensive proof of Grumbach’s duplicitous life can be found in the so-called Mitrokhin archive.
Born in Paris in 1924 into a Jewish family, Grumbach fled France with his mother and siblings in 1940 – the year Nazi Germany invaded and Marshal Philippe Pétain took power in Vichy with a collaborationist regime.“
[BBC]
The Wellingborough and Kingswood by-elections
At Wellingborough, a convincing win for Labour. I thought that it might go closer than it did. Labour 45.9%, Conservatives 24.6%, Reform UK 13%. All 8 other candidates lost their deposits; the LibDems came closest with 4.7%. A local Independent, Marion Turner-Hawes, scored 3.7% and probably would have beaten the LibDems had she been the only Independent standing. The Greens, as usual, were nowhere (6th) on 3.4%, and Britain First was even more “nowhere” on 1.6%.
The Conservatives were let down partly by the choice of candidate, the girlfriend of unpleasant former MP, Peter Bone. Having said that, the main reason for the electoral upset was that people want a change, even if it is really not much of a change, or the wrong change. They wanted, also, to stamp on the Conservative Party.
The Conservative candidate tried to make “stopping the boats“, i.e. the continuing cross-Channel migration-invasion, the issue. Of course, the fact is that the cross-Channel invasion is only a tenth, if that, of the main invasion— the enormous influx of “students”, “family-members”, “highly-skilled workers” (Indians that can work a computer) as well as supposed “asylum-seekers” etc.
Also, the “Conservative” governments of 2010-2024 have not even seriously tried to “stop the boats”, let alone the main migration-invasion. Not far short of a million a year now.
A better candidate, and one not tied up with Peter Bone, might have scored higher, maybe well over 30%, and so lost less embarrassingly.
A real social-national party, if one existed, might have won. Turnout was only 38%; a huge 62% of those eligible to vote did not bother, or showed their contempt for the whole system via abstention.
No need to “analyze” the Britain First vote— pathetic. As for Reform UK, it is going to have to do a lot better than that if it is going to start winning seats. Another pro-Israel scam-party by Nigel Farage.
Overall, the result is another nail in the coffin of the Rishi Sunak government, and the Conservative Party (and Sunak himself, of course).
I should be ready to bet that, if voters aged 65+ (many of whom would have voted early by post) were taken away, the remaining Con Party vote would have been no more than 10%.
Kingswood, north of Bristol and in effect an outer suburb of Bristol, also returned a Labour MP yesterday. Pointlessly, of course, because not only will there be a general election this year but, also, the constituency is being abolished.
The result was Labour 44.9%, Conservatives 34.9%, Reform UK 10.4%, Green 5.8%, LibDems 3.5%, UKIP 0.5%.
Turnout was 37.1%, even lower than at Wellingborough. Almost two-thirds of those eligible could not be bothered to vote, and/or despise the whole circus.
The Labour candidate had the advantage of being of local origin, more or less, combined with not being a Conservative. His unusual personal life (gay, and having converted from Roman Catholicism to Judaism to fit in with his Jewish “civil partner”) seems to have been disregarded by the voters (meaning the 11,176 who voted for him, out of about 80,000; the other ~68,000 were eligible to vote but either did not vote or voted for other candidates).
The Conservative Party candidate came closer than I had expected. His own local origins can probably be thanked for that. The Farage vehicle, Reform UK, came third, but again seems to be —time after time— the “also ran” party…
The Greens saved their deposit and beat the LibDems into 5th place. The rump of UKIP came last, and one has to wonder why candidates for no-hope parties like that even bother.
Yet another nail in Sunak’s political coffin, of course.
Taking away the local aspects of both by-elections, for me the “takeaways” are that this “Conservative” government is toast, that Sunak is toast, and that the Conservative Party is toast. Also, that the LibDems are seen as dull and, except where they have a good tactical chance against a Conservative candidate, unappealing to voters.
More? Well, that Reform UK is not exciting enough people, not yet anyway, to start being a major player. Also, that the Greens only appeal to around 5% of the electorate, if that.
Finally, for me the point is that, in both of these by-elections, only just over a third of people even bothered to vote; without postal voting, that 37%/38% would probably have been nearer to 20%. The voters most interesting to me are those not presently energized to vote.
What do these results say about GE 2024? That Labour must be en route to victory, though a victory not welcomed by all, or even a majority, of the voters. A feeling of dull meaninglessness, perhaps. A hollow victory?
For the Conservative Party, these results must mean that the bulk of their MPs are on the way out. 50 may survive, maybe 100.

"When you ignore the wishes of your core voters, when you treat them with contempt, when you promise them one thing only to do something else entirely, they will soon find another home. And that’s what they’re doing by switching to Reform"https://t.co/58R0TO4UNh
I agree with the first bit, but only partly with the second. Many 2019 Con Party voters seem to be switching, in despair, to Reform UK, but that would be only a small minority of the overall electorate. Look at the turnout figures from yesterday. Only a third (just over) of eligible voters even voted. Reform UK, with its limited “conservative nationalism” “cosplay”, its pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby attitude, and its semi-“libertarian” economics, will never inspire even a half of the voters. Maybe 10%, maybe 20%. I doubt that it will go higher.
The fact is that, even at Kingswood, where the result scarcely mattered in itself (a general election this year, and the seat then ceasing to exist), Reform UK only gathered in 13% of the votes, i.e. about 5% of all possible votes. The Wellingborough result was similar: 9.4% of votes cast, i.e. about 3% of all possible votes.
Only a fully-credible social-national party might be able to energise and inspire the British people. That party does not exist.
NEW POST. Sunak's Sinking — By-elections, recession, and a party in decline https://t.co/UkQl6UYyjf
“Today, the Tories are only holding half the people who voted for them at the last general election, in 2019, and only a little more than one in three of the people who voted for Brexit, in 2016. These are supposed to be the party’s core supporters. But many of them are now abandoning Sunak in droves, running for the hills.
And do you blame them? Seriously? Given some of the other events this week it’s not hard to see why. For a start, Sunak’s failure to control Britain’s borders was reflected in the remarkable finding that just 1.3% of the illegal migrants who entered Britain on the small boats since 2018 have been removed from the country.
And then came the latest data on the dire state of the economy, which confirms Britain is in recession and suffering the longest hit to living standards since records began, in 1955. Contrary to Sunak’s pledge to deliver economic growth, this week we learned that throughout his first year in office Britain’s economy grew by just 0.1%, while GDP per capita —which adjusts for population growth — fell by 0.7%.
This, too, will prompt many voters to ask Sunak some tough questions. Where is the growth you promised? Where is the strong economy? And where is the growth the Treasury, the Office for Budget Responsibility, and countless other experts told us would surely arrive if Britain opened its doors to unprecedented immigration?
The answer is it’s nowhere to be seen, partly because rather than deliver the high-skill, high-wage, highly-selective, and highly productive immigration the Tories have been promising since Brexit they’ve instead delivered low-skill, low-wage, non-selective, and unproductive immigration from outside Europe, which has been shown to be a net fiscal cost rather than a net benefit to Western economies.
...more and more [voters] are turning off and tuning out. Just look at the rates of turnout at the latest by-elections. Labour and Keir Starmer are not setting Britain on fire, far from it; the Tories are staying home.
These voters aren’t idiots. They know they’ve been led down the garden path by a Conservative government and a Conservative prime minister which have routinely overpromised and underdelivered.
These voters want decent economic growth and an economic model which prioritises British people. But Rishi Sunak and the Tories have given them more of the same.
These voters want much lower and manageable rates of immigration. But Rishi Sunak and the Tories keep putting mass migration on steroids. And these voters want strong and secure borders and a government which prioritises the security of the British people. But Rishi Sunak and the Tories have lost control of our borders, largely because they refuse to reform laws and leave conventions which make it impossible to remove illegal migrants and foreign nationals who commit crime, as we saw with the shocking case of Abdul Ezedi.“
[Matt Goodwin, on his Substack blog]
In any case, the UK needs no immigration at all. It needs to educate and train real British people to a far higher level, and then provide suitable employment for them. British people, real British people.

Labour has two more MPs after by-elections this week – but this is by default, because Tory voters didn't bother to turn out. Labour also is less popular.

BREAKING: Jailed Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has died, the prison service of the Yamalo-Nenets region where he had been serving his sentence said https://t.co/L0YtgkcjKMpic.twitter.com/x7xFV3UERB
The Federal Penitentiary Service of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District said that Navalny 'felt unwell' after a walk at the IK-3 penal colony in Kharp, about 1,200 miles north east of Moscow. Navalny, the prison service said, had lost consciousness almost immediately pic.twitter.com/xtHflzjNC7
Defying the Kremlin can be dangerous. The story that Navalny “felt unwell after he went for a walk” is obviously unlikely.
The daytime temperature in that region today is about -20C. Cold weather for a stroll, even for a Russian.
As to Navalny himself, I knew nothing of him beyond what was occasionally on TV news or in the newspapers. I was unable to understand why he returned to Russia after he had recovered from having been poisoned in Russia and flown to Germany for treatment.
My conclusion (beyond the apparent fact that Navalny was a braver man than me— and a more foolish one, arguably) is that he had a huge amount of egotism. He probably wildly over-estimated his popularity in Russia (in fact only about 5% supported him), and may have thought that arriving in Moscow on a private jet with a horde of Western reporters on board would probably protect him, especially as thousands of his supporters (mostly Moscow-based) would be awaiting his arrival at Vnukovo (one of the four main airports in the Moscow region: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vnukovo_International_Airport).
I may be wrong, but I think that Navalny may have thought that his return to Russia would be akin to that of Lenin in 1917. However, Lenin was never in any danger of arrest and detention in 1917, and had not only supporters but an armed guard force at his historic speech at the Finlandsky Station in Petrograd. Also, the Tsarist Government had already effectively fallen. There was no-one to arrest him.
Navalny has, by reason of his imprisonment and probable murder, achieved the status of martyr, but had he ever become leader of Russia, might have been as harsh, and probably less effective, than Putin.
I am old enough to remember how the usually-wrong Western msm thought, in the 1980s, that Andropov would be “liberal” (mainly because he was said to like jazz). The same or similar was said in the late 1970s of the African tyrant Robert Mugabe (“well-educated” by Jesuits, and a “democrat” by African standards. So they said…). Indeed, look at how the globalist msm lauded thick-as-two-short-planks Nelson Mandela…
Well, there it is.
One interesting aspect to the news coverage in the UK today is that it has been so extensive. In a way, surprising, when Navalny had no real support base in Russia, and never had a real chance of deposing Putin.
Were I more of a conspiracy theorist than people think I am, I should suspect that the UK TV people are using the Navalny matter to talk less about yesterday’s by-election results.
Also, the Kiev-regime forces are crumbling on the Ukrainian front-line.
Many, even perhaps I myself, might think that a retaliatory strike by Israel on Gaza, immediately after the October 2023 incursion, meaning in the following few days, would probably fall into the “self-defence” and “proportionate” area (leaving aside the behaviour of the Israeli Jews since 1948), but what has happened since then is a cruel slaughter and devastation worse than the much-criticized Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto by German forces in 1943. The Germans did evacuate most of the non-combatant Jews before killing or capturing the rest (saboteurs, terrorists, and rebels) and then levelling the area.
Which of the following do you think would make the best prime minister?
According to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would still leave the Con Party with 117 MPs. Maybe. One or two points can make a big difference. For example, if the Con/Lab numbers were 23% and 45% respectively, the Cons would have only 97 MPs.
Also, these polls always over-estimate the Green vote. When and where (except at Brighton Pavilion) did the Greens get anywhere close to 8%? 5% is more usual; or lower.
Gee, I thought of Julian Assange who was put in the worst prison in the UK on April 11, 2019 for the crime of reporting true information about our government crimes. But we don't do what the Russians do, right?
After Guantanamo, Bagram, Kabul, Abu Ghraib etc, the U.S. Government can say nothing about human rights abuses.
Israel admits 200 of the burned bodies that Israel used as an excuse to commit the genocide in Gaza were for Palestinian fighters. This means the IDF is responsible for the Israelis that were burned alive not Hamas #bbcqtpic.twitter.com/45GsdKUHbL
Well, anyone can make a “mathematical error”, as when a number of, say, six million becomes one of four million and then, later, one and a half million…anyone could make such a mistake, I suppose…

Labour, “the party for working people”??
Yes & the far right ( today's tory party) broke it I'm not a great lover of Starmer's Labour but it has to be better that the last 14 years of corruption
Why exactly does it have to be better? History tells us that it will be considerably worse. And I (& I suspect you too) remember when the Labour Party actually contained some really clever & gifted politicians. Smith, Foot etc. Now it’s a refuse dump for morons.

For me, the main thing is to break the rigged “two main parties” system (scam). So if the Conservative Party is trampled upon and left almost powerless at GE 2024, good, even though that would be at the cost of a Labour Party “elected dictatorship” for up to 5 years. With one large party reduced to almost nothing, the System’s rhythm will be disrupted. No more the idea that “the other lot” will be better. With the Cons deflated, and the LibDems already on the floor, other ideas, social-national ideas, will come through, one way or the other.
NEW. The % of Brits who think "immigration has been too high" hits a new record of 64%, while the % of Brits who think "immigration has been mostly good for Britain" slumps to a new low of 21% (YouGov).

My thoughts are with him. He may not be quite my sort of person, but he is a martyr for truth. The UK should ditch the one-sided UK/US extradition law.

The Kiev regime may collect money, but on the front-line its soldiers are being gradually defeated, and the UKR ranks are thinning daily.
