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.

“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.
Suitable employment, appropriate and decent pay; decent housing; decent transport; decent medical care; decent social care; also, decent architecture and town planning.
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?

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.

“Carlson dedicated a separate video to the Moscow metro.
The journalist was struck by the contrast of the capital’s subway with American metro stations filled with homeless people, dirt and graffiti.
According to Carlson, the Moscow metro is clean and orderly, despite the fact that the Kievskaya station, which Tucker reviewed, was built more than half a century ago.
“How is it that Russia has a metro station that people use every day to commute to and from work, and it looks better than anything else in our country?”, noted Carlson.”
When I was first in Moscow, in 1993, I used the Kievskaya metro station daily (though I also had a car and driver at my disposal). I was staying nearby, at the Ukraina Hotel.
The first tweeter, head of the “Holocaust Educational Trust” propaganda org, is a committed Zionist, of course.
Even if the headlines are “true” to some extent (though, as always with “them”, hugely overblown), I think that one has to ask the reason why. The Gaza brutality, ethnic cleansing and quasi-genocide is only part of the reason…
In election year, I want to know where candidates stand on:
I was just looking at the Betfair Politics website. At Wellingborough, Labour remain even-money favourite; Cons are at around 7/1 from 6/1 yesterday.
At Kingswood (Bristol), both Labour and the Greens are around even money. The LibDems, whom I thought would be the main challenge to any Labour upset, have drifted out to 70/1, having been 2/1 only yesterday (Cons 10/1, Reform UK 85/1).
[Update, same day: the LibDems are now back to 2/1; maybe there was an error on the Betfair site, or more interest in the LibDems— I do not know. The betting now is similar to yesterday’s market: Lab even money, LibDems and Greens 2/1, but Cons are now out to 21/1, and Reform UK to 120/1].
The betting market is an unreliable guide to the result of by-elections, but it looks as though the punters, at least, are saying Wellingborough Lab, but Kingswood either Green or Lab.
I still think that it might be fairly close in Wellingborough, despite the Bone scandals and the unpopularity of the Government, but it is obviously Labour’s contest to lose. Many usual Con voters may vote Labour purely as a protest; many will also abstain in disgusted apathy. At Kingswood, I cannot see the Con candidate having any realistic chance.
If the Cons lose both seats badly, will Sunak resign? Maybe not, but there might be enough discontent in the Conservative Party MP ranks to stiffen the backs of the —usually spineless— Con MPs, and for there to be a leadership challenge.
It is hard to see that any new Conservative Party leader could turn around the fortunes of the Cons so close to a general election but, on the other hand, it might be those MPs’ last despairing throw, hoping against hope that a new figurehead might, if not win GE 2024, at least mitigate the expected losses, saving maybe 50-100 seats; i.e. instead of Con Party ending up with 50-100 seats, they might hope for 100-150 or even more.
Imagine how weak the tories are when they support a creepy, sex-pest's mistress because he threatened to stand as an independent if they didn't.
The sad thing about that tweet is that the tweeter seems to think that “Labour” will make a difference once it forms a government, as will probably happen later this year. All major Labour people now are Labour Friends of Israel members, and/or freemasons. Join the dots…

She said the thieves also poured bleach over her grandmother’s sofa, clothes, and curtains. Piles of clothes and belongings were scattered around Betty’s home in the Shard End area of Birmingham. Rebecca says every door was broken and the heartless criminals even smashed windows.
The robbery took place last Saturday (February 10), which would have been Betty’s late husband’s birthday. Betty’s family now say she is too terrified to live in her own home. Rebecca shared poignant photos of a teary-eyed Betty in her armchair surrounded by the mess.”

“Three people who displayed images of paragliders at a pro-Palestinian march in central London a week after Hamas militants went on a bloody rampage in Israel have been found guilty of a terror offence.
Heba Alhayek, 29, Pauline Ankunda, 26, and Noimutu Olayinka Taiwo, 27, were each given a 12-month conditional discharge.”
[The Guardian]
The malicious Jew-Zionist cabals such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” are fuming, of course. They love to see people charged, convicted and preferably imprisoned because of “offences” supposedly “antisemitic”. The 12-month conditional discharge was manifestly a just as well as merciful sentence, though it is unfortunate that the court saw fit to convict at all.
The whining demands of the various Jewish organizations are now just becoming a bore for almost everyone, including the courts, it seems. The woodentopped police, and the CPS, are still doing what those cabals demand (much of the time), but at least the courts seem both to retain some independence of thought, and to be waking up to the essentially trivial nature of many such “antisemitism”-related cases.
How absurd to charge people with a nominally “terror-related” offence just for wearing a cartoon or drawing on their clothing! UK society has no resilience at all now compared to the 1970s or 1960s, let alone 1950s. Society is now very fragmented, and has little internal strength.

What you see on X via Ford-Portes-Katwala is how academe works. Once you challenge sacred value (I.e. immigration = unalloyed good) you become target. They ignore (growing pile of) evidence which runs counter while trying to attack/silence dissenters
While it is true that the retail cost of housing, particularly sale/purchase prices, is influenced by a number of causative factors, mass immigration (migration-invasion) into the UK is probably now the main causative factor in making housing absurdly unaffordable; that is especially true of the housing rental market, and especially though not solely in London and the southeast of the UK.
The opposite contention, that (since 1997 alone) an influx of perhaps 15-20 millions (including births to immigrants) has little or no effect, is just ludicrous, totally illogical, totally absurd.

The upcoming Wellingborough and Kingswood by-elections
'We have discovered that she claimed at least £1000 of Brexit campaign funding to her own physiotherapy firm.' @NatashaC and @mrjamesob discuss Helen Harrison, who is the Tory candidate for the by-election caused by the suspension of Peter Bone – her partner. pic.twitter.com/uTV22Oc9Ji
The Wellingborough by-election tomorrow is a contest among 11 candidates. Five are Independents or joke parties. The others are Con, Lab, LibDem, Green, Reform UK and Britain First (which last I have not included as a joke party out of courtesy, but they are not my idea of a proper social-national party.
The Conservative Party scored 62.2% in 2019, despite having had Peter Bone as the candidate. Ordinarily, this would be a shoo-in for the Con candidate. This time, though, that candidate is Bone’s girlfriend. There is also the fact that the Con Party nationally is falling through the floor in terms of, inter alia, popularity.
Labour last won in Wellingborough, though very narrowly, in 2001. It also came close in 1997. Before that, only in 1966. In 2019, Labour scored 26.5%, a very poor second place.
The LibDems have never achieved 20% in the constituency since they were founded, though the old Liberal Party occasionally reached nearly 25%.
The other parties can be pretty much written off in this contest. I shall be interested to see how Britain First and Reform UK perform.
The bookmakers (Betfair Politics) have Labour on evens. Not sure that is a value bet. The Cons, on 11/1, seem to be a value bet. Reform UK is at 25/1.
The Con candidate, however tainted, is however batting off from a favourable position, given that her personal “partner”, Bone, achieved over 62% last time, in 2019. Her positions politically seem to be quite close to those of Reform UK; has she shot Reform’s fox?
This, as far as I can see, is between the Con Party candidate and Labour (as a kind of protest vote). Reform UK may take away enough of the remaining Con support to help Labour in winning the contest, but I am far from certain. You would think that either Labour or (even) Reform UK would win this, in all the local and national circumstances, but I wonder. It could be close among all three.
One thing is for sure: if the Conservatives lose badly in Wellingborough, it’s “Goodnight Vienna” for them.
Kingswood, just north of Bristol, is a constituency due to be abolished; it will not exist at GE 2024. There are 6 candidates: Con, Lab, LibDem, Reform UK, UKIP, Green.
The former Con Party MP, Skidmore, has bailed out (on a not-very-plausible “green” excuse), presumably in order to get a job in the “green” sector somewhere soon. Good riddance, anyway.
It appears, according to a New Statesman report (see below) that the area is —like much of England— in steep socio-economic decline.
I doubt that the Con Party has much chance. Skidmore was, in my view, not much of an MP, and his intellectual pretensions were just that. Well, he has now gone and, bearing in mind that the seat will not even exist in 6-12 months’ time, and that the present government is despised or hated by a great majority of the public, the Con candidate is a sacrificial lamb whose only selling point is his local origin (however, the Lab candidate was also brought up locally, and even attended the same school).
The Labour candidate is the former recent Mayor of Lewisham (S.E. London), though educated locally. The voters may like his local links (though he was actually born in Cork, Ireland), and may or may not be impressed by his having converted religiously from his native Roman Catholicism to Judaism (the religion, it seems, of his gay marriage “partner”). He is pro-migration, too: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damien_Egan.
Until 2010, Kingswood was fairly firm Labour territory. As in other parts of the UK, the decline in both industry and living standards has led to a fall in the Labour vote, perhaps counter-intuitively. There again, Labour is no longer the party of “working people”, and most of those people know it.
Having said that, people despise this “Con” government, and this by-election is a pure protest opportunity, the seat going up the chimney sometime this year, so Labour must have a very good chance here.
The bookmakers have Lab at even-money, but both the LibDems and Greens are on 2/1, perhaps indicating that many are considering a protest vote for either of those. As for the Cons and Reform UK, 10/1 and 50/1 respectively.
Bookmakers’ odds are a poor way to forecast elections, though.
Kingswood is, if anything, harder to call than Wellingborough except that, at Kingswood, the Con candidate has really no chance at all. For the Cons, their vote-share will be a pure vote on how the public see them. It looks bad for them. They received 56.2% of the vote in 2019. Now? I think that they will probably end up with around 10%.
If I had to guess the result, it would probably be a Labour win, though the LibDems may have a chance.
[Update, 27 December 2024: Well, Labour won the 2024 Wellingborough by-election easily— 45.9%, with Peter Bone’s girlfriend, the pretty nice-looking Helen Harrison, on a mere 24.6%, and Reform UK getting 13%; at the June 2024 General Election, Lab retained the seat with 40.3%, a different Con candidate got 27.8%, and Reform UK crept up to 21.5%, a sign of things to come, perhaps.
As for Kingswood, the 2024 by-election was won fairly comfortably by Labour (44.9%), with Cons on 34.9%, and Reform UK on 10.4%, Reform’s candidate being the businessman Rupert Lowe, now Reform UK MP for Great Yarmouth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Lowe.
The Kingswood seat was abolished prior to the 2024 General Election. The reworked seat, Bristol North East, was then won by Egan, the former Kingswood MP (45.3%), with the Green in second place (18.7%), the Con on a mere 14.8%, and Reform UK on 12.9% (LibDems 4.7%)].

Then she stopped herself and said “of course don’t know if you might be an anti-vaxxer” I said “I wasn’t one, but the Covid vaccine nonsense woke me up”. I told her I knew a lot of injured people from the Covid jabs, and I couldn’t believe these highly novel, barely tested shots were being given to healthy, young people who stood to gain nothing from them, and that I was shocked that they were still being recommended.
She nodded in agreement and said the mRNA vaccines had been particularly bad, indicating she was aware of many people injured and killed by them.
Later in the conversation she told me that her husband had recently died of pancreatic cancer. And her son had been diagnosed with aggressive, metastatic colon cancer.
She did not appear to see a connection between the shots and the cancers. The timing of these tumors could of course, be mere coincidences, but I would have thought the question of a possible connection would be obvious. And given the frank medical nature of our conversation, I believe she would have mentioned a suspicion if she’d had one.
I find the whole encounter disorienting, suggesting a fragmented belief structure that I believe must be common amongst those getting their news from corrupted sources—the smoldering ruins of a collapsed mass formation event.”

Well, a convincing win over political journalist John Rentoul this week: he scored an embarrassing 1/10 (though all credit to him for having admitted it). I scored 7/10. I did not know the answers to questions 7, 9, and 10, and guessed (out of two) the answer to question 8.
“It’s no longer up for debate: Joe Biden has got to go.
In a hastily called press conference Thursday night, President Biden was, for the first time, questioned relentlessly by the White House press pool about his age, cognition, and fitness to serve.
The latest national poll by NBC News found that a whopping 76 percent of voters are concerned about Biden’s mental and physical ability to serve.“
Looks as though only one likely alternative presently exists, a Jew called Dean Phillips, a member of the House of Representatives: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Phillips.
“Phillips is married and has two daughters from a previous marriage. He is Jewish[43] and was acknowledged by the Minnesota publication The American Jewish World for serving on the board of Temple Israel in Minneapolis.
In the primaries held so far, Biden got 100% of the delegates and 83.4% of the popular vote (Phillips got 7% of the popular vote). Phillips is not even on the ballot of several state primaries.

‘We need more guns, more equipment, but, most of all, more men.’ Dispatch from the Kupiansk frontline in Ukraine.”
[Daily Mail]
The msm in the UK, USA etc can no longer conceal the military crisis overwhelming the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev. The military chief, Zaluzhny, has been replaced, and the ranks of the Kiev-regime forces are being thinned by both battlefield casualties and the unwillingness of both Ukrainian men and foreign volunteers and mercenaries to serve.
The foreigners have mostly been killed, captured, or have returned home, while Ukrainian men in very large numbers are avoiding the draft, either by remaining in foreign countries or by keeping their heads down in Ukraine itself. The Kiev regime employs brutal press-gangs to capture draft-evaders. One has to ask, though, whether people forced to join up under violent duress are going to be of much use in the field.
Strategically, as noted on the blog for 2 years now, Russia cannot lose this conflict, and will not. Tactically, both sides have encountered problems, but in terms of both manpower and arms, Russia now has the edge, very obviously.
I would not rule out a large-scale Russian offensive in 2024, though it may be that Putin will prefer to see what happens politically in the USA first. The US Presidential Election is in November 2024.
“Russian troops are attacking a town in east Ukraine from all directions, and the situation is increasingly difficult for Ukrainian troops defending the town, its mayor said on Thursday.
“The enemy is pressuring from all directions. They are storming with very numerous forces,” Avdiivka mayor Vitaliy Barabash said in televised comments, describing the situation as “very difficult and hot”.“
The simple truth. Without EU, UK, and US arms and ammo, the Kiev regime will fall back, not only from the Donbass front, but fall back to Kiev, and quite likely further, to somewhere between Kiev and Lvov.
Likewise, Ukraine’s economy is on (Western) life-support.
Demographically, the population numbers are in freefall. 500,000 dead on or around the battlefields, huge numbers in foreign countries, and few children being born.
In short, as an independent state (failed state, fake state), Ukraine has no future.

Nobody knows who Charlotte Owen is, what she’s done, and WHY she’s been elevated to the Lords.
— EAT FLAG 🏳️🌈🏴🏴☠️🇪🇺🏳️⚧️🏁 (@AsenathMagic) February 10, 2024
Either Charlotte Owen is related to “Boris” Johnson (the most likely possibility), or he was having some kind of affair with her; there is a third possibility, i.e. that she somehow knows something very seriously discreditable about Johnson.
The last possibility seems unlikely. After all, Johnson is so discredited anyway that it would be hard to think of a concealed fact that would make blackmail or implied blackmail sufficiently threatening.
Still, there it is— an office gopher in her twenties now “elevated” to the House of Lords. Our whole system of government is rotten to the core.
“Politician“? Of course, we are talking about the Plaid Cymru fake “nationalist” joke-party, but even so…
“Carmen Ria Smith (born c. 1996/97) is a Plaid Cymru political assistant. In February 2024, it was announced Smith would be appointed to the House of Lords.
Smith was nominated to the peerage by Plaid Cymru after Dafydd Wigley announced he planned to retire in 2024.[2] This will keep the number of Plaid Cymru life peers as one.”
[Wikipedia]
A member of the Lords at 27, having been an office gopher for 1-2 years, and a lobbyist for a wind-turbine company for another 1-2 years. “Chief of Staff“? The Plaid group in the Senedd (Welsh Assembly) consists of only 12 people!
Carmen Smith was evidently born under a lucky star, and really should buy some lottery tickets. £350+ per day, plus extra monies etc, at age 27. For life, in effect. Incredible.
Ah…
On the day Carmen Smith takes her seat in the lords, a timely reminder of how she got there without consent of party members. Are @Plaid_Cymru now a party run by a few that runs roughshod over their members wishes? Shocking duplicity if so! https://t.co/romBSnEfKA
“A row has broken out in Plaid Cymru after an internal election for nominees to the House of Lords saw a lobbyist for a controversial wind power company elevated to first place on the list – even though she was decisively beaten in a members’ vote by former MP Elfyn Llwyd.
Although the voting figures haven’t been disclosed, Nation.Cymru understands that Carmen Smith, 27, who works for Bute Energy, received around 70 votes while Mr Llwyd got about 180 votes. A third candidate – longstanding party member Ann Griffith – secured around 40 votes.
A longstanding Plaid Cymru member contacted Nation.Cymru and said: “This is disgraceful. I don’t know the actual result of the vote but I would have thought that Elfyn was way out in front. The fact that the National Exec has imposed a woman on top of the list was not explained at any time in the introduction to the virtual hustings that I attended last week.”
A senior party source told us: “This all stems from a decision by the NEC to make sure that a woman was given top position, regardless of how many votes were cast. It’s quite farcical that Elfyn Llwyd was way in the lead, yet came second. It’s surely a travesty of democracy. He has a wealth of Parliamentary experience, while Carmen hasn’t even been elected as a councillor.“

“Russian President Vladimir Putin, during an interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson , the recording of which was published on the TCN (Tucker Carlson Network) website on February 9, said that Ukraine is an artificially created republic that appeared in 1922 during the formation of the USSR.
“When forming the Soviet Union – this is already 1922 – the Bolsheviks began to form the USSR and created a Soviet Ukraine, which did not exist until now. At the same time, [Joseph] Stalin insisted that these republics that were being formed should be included as autonomous entities,” Putin said.
Russia wants to achieve a settlement in Ukraine through negotiations, the Russian leader said in an interview. He expressed confidence that both countries “sooner or later” will be able to reach an agreement. Putin said Ukraine refused to negotiate with Russia “on instructions from Washington,” adding that the decision was wrong and must now be corrected.
Putin said that Russia has not yet achieved its goals in Ukraine.
The West has already come to an understanding that it is impossible to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia; it will fight for its interests to the end. Vladimir Putin told American journalist Tucker Carlson about this.
Putin: The West fears a strong China more than a strong Russia because there are 150 million people in Russia, and one and a half billion in China, and the Chinese economy is developing by leaps and bounds – more than five percent a year, it was even more. But this is enough for China. Bismarck once said: the main thing is potentials. China’s potential is colossal; it is the first economy in the world today in terms of purchasing power parity and economic volume. They have already overtaken the United States for quite some time, and the pace is growing.
Russia is not interested in a war with Poland, Latvia or another country ; Moscow may consider sending troops in the event of an attack, Putin said. He emphasized that getting involved in a “global war” does not meet common sense.“
All of those points can be found on this blog, in posts published over the past 2+ years.

“Good man” is debatable. After all, “no-one can rule guiltlessly” [Saint-Just], but Putin is certainly at least as good a man as those opposing him, both here and in Russia itself.
People usually want things to be black-and-white, simple. Not everything is black-and-white. Look at modern history. There were people, some people, in the SS and even, rather later, in the KGB and GRU, who meant well, were relatively honourable, and who might be described in the superficial sense as “good” people, and there were those in the USA and UK, and also in the internal opposition(s) to both National Socialist and Soviet socialist rule, who were rather “bad” people.
If life is a chess game, it is often “three-dimensional chess”.
It seems to me —as far as I have read etc— that Israel is now quite centralized on Tel Aviv and its region, though the Jerusalem area has as many or more inhabitants. The economy is centred on that region. The Israeli state can absorb a certain amount of conflict in border areas (Gaza, the Golan Heights and Northern Israel, even the West Bank), so long as the central belt around Tel Aviv is still functioning.
The increasing capabilities of Hezbollah, especially what seems to be their fast-upgraded missile programme, threaten Tel Aviv and the surrounding region. The Israeli ruling circles are therefore probably contemplating a massive attack on southern Lebanon to destroy the Hezbollah infrastructure before missiles of real power rain down on Tel Aviv.
The Israelis are willing to take a hit in terms of international perception of Israel, a public relations hit, and also an economic hit, so long as that Hezbollah infrastructure can be at least badly damaged.
Were Hezbollah or other powers able to heavily damage Tel Aviv itself, the Israeli economy would tank, and the exodus (?) of dual-passport Jews from Israel —30,000+ since October 2023— would become a flood.

“God mote it be“, not because I think particularly highly of Trump as an individual, or as statesman of sorts, but because he will ensure, as far as possible, that the USA and Russia (etc) do not get into a Third World War that might set back civilization for hundreds or even thousands of years.
At the end of the day, the choice will be a poor one, because the US political system is sclerotic and almost incapable of substantial change. That will be so even were Biden and Trump not to be the candidates in the end.
As it is, it looks like being Trump on the one side, a very flawed individual but one with real strengths, as against Biden, a corrupt and possibly perverse individual who —most importantly— is plainly at least semi-demented.
People may say “so what if Biden has dementia? He has support etc“. Well, if that is so, why even elect a President? Just let the Deep State conclaves, and secretive Bohemian Grove circles, and Jew-Zionist cabals, rule the USA without the figurehead…

Amazing how many —indeed, brainwashed— people really want to believe either that the UK actually benefits from mass immigration (which is such nonsense) or at least can comfortably absorb the present (net) inflow of about 750,000 a year (more in fact, bearing in mind that the incomers are almost all non-white, while emigrants are often British people —real British people— going to Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere).
“Four of the Royal Navy’s smallest ships are preparing to head to the Arctic to represent Britain in a major NATO exercise after the fleet’s largest ship, the £3bn HMS Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier, was forced to pull out due to a ‘propeller issue’.
Four tiny P2000s, which normally patrol coastlines with crews of five, were seen making final preparations before heading to Norway for NATO’s largest joint exercise since the Cold War amid fears of escalating tensions on Europe’s eastern border.
Notably absent from today’s preparations was the 65,000-ton aircraft carrier, usually manned by a team of 780, which experts say could be docked for ‘a couple of months’ as engineers scramble to fix it. “

Meanwhile, a carer in her late 70s who chose to sit down on the path after waiting since 8.30am slammed the unacceptable delays.

I was blogging several years ago about how basic services in the UK were gradually ceasing to work. Journalists started to catch up with me a few years ago. Now, almost everyone accepts it as a fact.
Happened to come across the local history piece above. I was struck by the relatively lenient sentences. The ringleader (caught ripping off a bank, and in possession of gelignite, detonators etc), got 4 years. He had 10 previous convictions. Even in those days, when people convicted did either 2/3 or 3/4 of their sentence (I forget) rather than half (as today, in most cases), he would have still been out in about 2-3 years. That was in 1962. He would get far longer today.
