Well, I did much better than political journalist John Rentoul this week— 7/10 as against his claimed “4 and a half out of 10” (not sure how he managed to give himself a half-point for no.7; still, there it is). I did not know the answers to questions 6 and 9; I might have got no. 3 had I thought about it (but did not, because I jumped at Francesca di Rimini which was composed a couple of years earlier).

Only a small number of NATO states really want Kiev-regime Ukraine to join the alliance. Maybe France, maybe the UK, the Baltic states, Poland, maybe a few of the Scandinavians. Out of 32 states, maybe 10-15. It will never happen. It was never going to happen, once the war started.
In any case, every NATO state has a veto. So, even leaving aside the USA (the most important of all, and the only NATO state with both nuclear and serious non-nuclear forces), Hungary would veto, Italy too, Slovakia too. Others as well, if push came to shove.
What makes the cruelty and brutality of the Israeli Jews worse is the fact that those they victimize have little or no way in which to defend themselves, at least not really significantly.

I recall my own visit to the Kremlin in 1993. A tourist visit to the Kremlin, in effect, though I was in Moscow on business. Most of my time, though, was my own.
I paid my few roubles early one summer morning, after having swum, as usual, at the Moskva swimming pool at Kropotkinskaya. I would have been the first visitor that morning, had I not gone to sleep in the sun while sitting on a low wall by the little ticket kiosk (now replaced by a modern visitor centre); a Russian family thus bought their tickets ahead of me. In fact, it was their arguing with the ticket lady that woke me up.
My komplekt of tickets entitled me to visit all parts of the Kremlin open to paying visitors (other areas are closed off for the exclusive use of the Russian Government; the Kremlin is more or less like Whitehall, but inside a walled fortification). I visited the Kremlin churches (I was the only visitor, in fact, at that hour). I also wandered around other parts and saw, from above, the green Land Rover of the British Ambassador arriving, Union Jack bravely flying in the slight breeze.
[“On this day of Covid reflection I reflect on how there was no pandemic, Covid was a hoax and the lies of the state inflicted uncounted numbers of deaths and injuries upon the world.“— Neil Oliver]
You still see a few facemask loonies about, here and there.
There is still a disinclination to understand that the “scamdemic” or “panicdemic” was a massive psy-op right across the world. So many people still believe that there was a genuine and deadly “global pandemic”…
Now there is a real public health danger, as millions fall victim by reason of the “vaccines” having caused serious medical problems, especially heart problems. Huge numbers of people, often healthy young people, worldwide have just dropped dead.
One aspect of the years 2020-2022 was the way in which a combination of repressive pseudo-public-health “measures” (invalid laws, regulations made superficially under those laws, and State propaganda, amplified by very well-paid “useful idiots” such as Piers Morgan, James O’Brien etc), enforced compliance.
Any dissidents were labelled, in the Press, on radio etc, “Covidiots” for saying (as I did, on the blog) that people camping on deserted Welsh hills, or walking in the Peak District, or taking a spin on the empty roads on their motorbikes or in their own cars, were not thereby “killing people” etc.
Some people even got prosecuted and convicted for such terrible crimes as having a picnic, though most of such convictions were later overturned when the hysteria had somewhat abated.
The police were particularly stupid during the “Covid” panic. In fact, I should say that the present contempt for the police in the UK, though it had been developing for a number of years, is mainly a reaction to the memory of police shouting from helicopters at elderly couples walking on hills, and examining people’s shopping to adjudge whether purchases were “reasonable” or not (!), which is and was not the job of the police; neither are they authorized by law to do that.
The reach of the State has extended, partly by reason of the craven response of most of the public to the dictatorial measures imposed during the scamdemic/panicdemic. For example, you can now not only be arrested, charged, indeed imprisoned, for owning a copy (hard copy or online copy) of such a work as the 1970s Anarchist’s Cookbook, but also even for simply owning a machete or the like, even if kept in your own home. Some such laws that existed prior to 2020 (eg about supposed “terrorist materials”) are now seemingly used more often, indeed often against young people (sometimes still at school). Socio-political hysteria.
Just as well that the Rhodesian Army panga (a kind of machete), in a handsome light-tan thick leather sheath, which I brought back from my visit to Rhodesia in 1977, was later stolen by the staff of the Kazakh removals company which moved my personal possessions (at least, the ones they did not steal) from Almaty to London 20+ years later.
Well, the “panicdemic” is now history, though attempts are still made to revive it, and with it the control-State of 2020-2022, but new panics have been substituted. At present, the panic all over the mass media is around the non-existent threat of Russian invasion of Western Europe, including the UK. It’s rubbish, of course, but the unthinking part, maybe a majority, of the public seem ready to believe that “we” “have to” fight Russia quite soon.

If ever the UK had a Prime Minister incredibly out of touch, it is Starmer-stein.
Starmer thinks that his pathetic attempts to play the world statesman resonate in this country. No, they do not. Why? Partly because his foreign affairs activities only underline how weak and divided are the European states, partly because Starmer has no credibility at all as a statesman, partly because everything is falling apart in this country. It seems that only Starmer and his Labour Friends of Israel cabal are unaware of how bad things are getting. Policing, NHS, the ever-more-mean benefits system, falling real take-home disposable income, the courts, prisons and, above all, the continuing migration-invasion (1,000-2,000 illegals every week, and also tens of thousands of “legal” immigrants, every week).
Late thoughts about Starmer, Rachel Reeves, and their Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment
Looking at the words of Starmer, Reeves, and various other nonentities now in Cabinet, particularly about their threatened cuts to the State benefits of the disabled, sick and others, can it really be said that the present fake “Labour” government is different in any way at all from the “Conservative” governments of 2010-2024 and, especially, that of 2010-2015? I see no difference at all.
This “Labour” (Labour Friends of Israel) government offers the British people nothing, nothing at all. Both evil and stupid.

The United Kingdom is “explosively configured” for mass unrest. That’s the chilling warning from Professor David Betz, a top government advisor and security expert.

What’s fueling the chaos? Mass immigration, collapsing legitimacy, and a government unable—or unwilling—to defend its own borders. The people feel betrayed, and Betz warns that if things don’t change, civil conflict could erupt within five years.
WHEN THE SYSTEM FAILS, HISTORY SHOWS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT.
WHAT THIS MEANS:
Social order is eroding, and the government has NO plan to control the fallout.
Warnings of civil war are coming from insiders—not just commentators.

Unpleasantness ran and runs right though “New Labour”, and Starmer-Labour is just a pointless, meaningless offshoot of Blair-Brown “New Labour”.
Bastani is right, of course, about the appallingly-low quality of MPs. Since 1997 and, particularly, 2010 (and as often said by me on the blog), that fact is inescapable. Not just in fake Labour though; also true of the fake “Conservative” Party, and fake “Liberal Democrat” Party (remember Jo Swinson?).

Blast from the past: the “Mrs Duffy” moment in 2010
Mrs Duffy, uneducated, “ignorant” etc, knew far more than “educated” fake “big brain”, globalist puppet Gordon Brown.

Aaron Bastani is far from my position, ideologically. Having said that, he often speaks the truth as he sees it.

Trump, and Trump’s White House

Looks as though Musk should have a word with the child’s nanny. The child seems short on good manners. (I have to admit that it made me laugh, though; look at Trump’s expression!).
Very odd. Where did the child hear that, to regurgitate it?
That scene really does seem mad, disorderly.
On the other hand, until Trump took over, the international situation, and several regional issues, seemed stuck in glacial mud. He has disrupted that pattern. As psychologists say, a “pattern-interrupt”.
It may seem absurd to want to buy Greenland, annex Canada, and turn the Jew-Zionist-devastated Gazan hellscape into a Mediterranean beach resort, but all of those ideas have at least made people think about alternative realities.
To compare Trump’s disruptive ideas to the campaigns of Alexander the Great may seem to stretch “first time tragedy, second time farce“, in the famous comment of Marx, to breaking point, but history is sometimes moved by ideas that seemed absurd.
Look at the state of Israel itself. When Herzl and others first came up with the idea of Israel as a state, they were just a few Jews in the lower strata of the Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires. Their ideas seemed crazed, and they themselves had no genuine ancestral link to Palestine, which was then one of the poorer provinces of the Ottoman Empire. Also, the Ottoman Empire might have been “the sick man of Europe” but it sat there, apparently immovable in its vast power.
Is Trump trying to make his Gaza plan (“Club Trump?) seem more credible by hiding it among even crazier-seeming plans? One thinks of stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and E.W. Hornung.
Where do you hide a pebble? On a beach. Where do you hide a murder? Among other apparently-similar murders. Where do you, as a fugitive person, hide? Not in isolated places but in a big city. So where do you hide your plan to seize Gaza? Among other apparently-mad plans.
A paranoid analysis, possibly; also, though, possibly, accurate.
Trump cannot realistically seize Canada. He cannot, either, seize Greenland, not without smashing NATO to pieces. He could, however, take over Gaza. The Israelis (quelle surprise) seem open to the idea. After all, from where would come most if not all inhabitants of the proposed Club Trump, Club Gaza? Israel, of course, or Jew-Zionist settlers from places such as New York City.
“Greater Israel”, in some form, seems more than a mere “conspiracy theory”.
When Trump was serving out his first term, this blog described him as “a loudly-squawking parrot in a gilded cage, guarded by a phalanx of Jews“, and that remains broadly the case, but perhaps less so in this second term. Trump no longer needs the Jewish lobby or Israel lobby for political purposes, though he would not want to make an enemy of them either, whether for political or business reasons.
Trump may be thinking in terms of “legacy”, especially after the assassination attempt(s).
Looks as though Trump is also determined to bring an end to the war in and around Ukraine. He must know that the quickest way to do that is to restrict or stop money, arms, and ammunition flowing to the Kiev regime.
That “charity” was set up by Rory Stewart himself. His wife was an employee of his prior to their marriage. I believe that she was married or engaged to someone else at the time. She is half-Jewish, I believe. See also:
My assessment of Stewart, published in 2019 and updated over the years, has proven to be fairly popular with readers. He himself is part-Jew, incidentally, a fact of which I admit I was unaware until an alert blog reader sent information (read the published assessment).
As for Stewart’s wife and that “artwork” etc, funny how “they” are always around when degenerate influences are promoted.
FACT: Whites are 9% of world population and must be protected as an endangered human species…rethink the racist model and see the truth: whites are being decimated by racism.
Ukraine's President Zelensky says he won't accept any peace deal reached between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin without Ukraine's involvement – follow live https://t.co/Hid5lUXJz6
Zelensky is living on borrowed time. How long before tidal waves of tanks roll into Kiev?
As soon as the money/arms/ammunition tap is shut off, or the flow reduced to a trickle, the Kiev regime will just implode. “Ukraine” is not a real state at all.
Full quote: “I welcome what the Minster has said from the despatch box. Can I ask the Minister if she agrees with me that in this new world, and in the event of any peace deal, that the United Kingdom and its European allies must lead in providing Ukraine with military support…
It always looks ludicrous when “British” politicians of today try to play the “war leader and statesman” card, even when they have some underwhelming “military experience”; neither Sunak nor Starmer have any at all. Neither, of course, has Maria Eagle, a former solicitor best known as MP for having been an expenses cheat [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Eagle#Expenses_controversy].
Maria Eagle is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, of course.
Look and learn. When “they” have power, as in Russia/Soviet Union after the Bolshevik “Revolution” (coup d’etat).
If some of the Palestinian Arabs sometimes do monstrous things, as on the day or two before the Israeli attack on Gaza in 2023, it is because they have been made monstrous by, mainly, Jewish/Israeli behaviour.
That might translate into a Commons with 276 Reform UK MPs! Also, according to Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] 139 Lab, 108 Con, 59 LibDem, 4 green, 40 SNP; 24 others.
Still no majority (50 short), but I imagine that, under those circumstances, some Con MPs would defect, and others support ad hoc.
Were Reform to be able to get even one extra point, to 30%, then, even with other figures unchanged, its MP cadre would be around 298 (Lab 129, Con 95, LibDem 60).
Were Reform on 30% and Cons a point lower than in the opinion poll, i.e. on 20%, Reform would have 318 MPs, 8 short of a majority but with very close to a working majority. The Cons, though would have only 75 MPs.
For the long-established Conservative Party, effectively terminal. Not even the official Opposition. Maybe not even the third party.
Tim Montgomerie has recently opined that the Conservative Party might be expiring; for once, I agree with him. Or does he, belatedly, agree with me?
Fake “Labour” will decline but not so far or so fast, because about 20%, maybe more, of the electorate is now black/brown, and that percentage will increase inexorably, because few white/British children are being born. Virtually all the births now are from the ethnic minorities (who, within half a century, will certainly be the majority, unless action is taken to prevent that). They all vote Labour; at least 90% of them do.
Opinion polls suggest that among those aged 18-24, only about 5%, if that, vote Conservative; about 80% vote Labour. Who are those young voters? Largely, the non-whites.
So today we learn GDP-per-person down again in Britain. Why? Because all that mass low-skill, low-wage immigration is not making us more prosperous and productive as experts promised. On the contrary, it’s making us poorer and eroding living standards https://t.co/bH1j3G70WM

The following short essay from the American online publication National Vanguard was sent to me by a reader of the blog:
“Stalingrad and the Death of the West
SOMETIMES A MOMENTOUS event occurs whose significance is not recognized at the time but only becomes apparent later. So it was with the surrender of the last German defenders of the Stalingrad pocket on Feb. 2, 1943. At the time, every observer understood that it was a fatal turning point in the Second World War — after Stalingrad, a German victory by the force of arms was impossible. All the Soviets and the Allies had to do was to ignore their casualties and grind through to the finish.
But in retrospect, we can see that the defeat at Stalingrad was more than just the defeat of Adolf Hitler and National Socialist Germany: It was the beginning of the end of Western civilization. The 82 years that have passed since then have revealed this. What we are experiencing now — and will continue to experience in the decades ahead — is merely the winding down of a civilization and culture that has lasted 1,000 years. Had Hitler prevailed in the War, he would have revitalized Western civilization and extended its life another two or three hundred years — perhaps even the thousand years that he himself predicted. But Hitler did not prevail, and so the fate of the West was sealed.
One of the first to recognize the true significance of Stalingrad was the French author Louis-Ferdinand Céline, who said:
It’s Stalingrad. How’s that for catharsis! The fall of Stalingrad is the finish of Europe. There was a cataclysm. The core of it all was Stalingrad. There you can say it was finished and well-finished, the White civilization.
We agree with Céline — up to a point. What was “well finished” was not White civilization as a racial phenomenon but only the Western incarnation of White culture.
Adolf Hitler noted in Mein Kampf:
Every defeat can become the father of a subsequent victory, every lost war the cause of a later resurgence, every hardship the fertilization of human energy; and from every oppression the forces for a new spiritual rebirth can come — as long as the blood is kept pure. (Vol. I, Ch. 11, p. 327 Manheim; p. 605 Dalton; S/ 359)
That the West is doomed is beyond question. Yet, as long as there are Aryans of pure blood in the Universe, our culture and civilization can continue. That is what we National Socialists fight for today: not to preserve the rotting corpse of Western civilization but for the new racial rebirth of Aryandom that shall follow it!“

“A family cat in a quaint Northamptonshire village has been left traumatised after allegedly being targeted in a firework attack by a local parish councillor.
The shocking incident, captured on video, shows the cat being blasted after stepping into a birdhouse rigged with explosives.
The attack is believed to have been carried out by Councillor James Garnor, and is one of at least two such occurrences that took place in the village of Whittlebury.
It has been reported that Mr Garnor used remote-controlled devices to detonate explosives aimed at the animals.
Police were alerted in October 2023 when a local resident filed a complaint about the April 2023 attack.
While Garnor attended a voluntary interview and was shown footage of the April 9 incident, the authorities ultimately decided there was insufficient evidence to press criminal charges. Instead, he was addressed under anti-social behaviour legislation.
Nikki the owner of the attacked cat, Suki, has spoken about the disturbing effect the attack has had on the animal which suffered visible injuries such as singed whiskers.“

In two minds about that. First of all, the farmers may be notionally anti-socialist, but that never stops them from accepting all the subsidies and other freebies they can get, and they are not only ungrateful for getting heavily subsidised in the first place but also constantly demand more.
On the other hand, the farmers are one of the last few bastions of Britishness. Few are black, brown, Jewish, Muslim etc.
The German people should, before all else, demand repeal of all “holocaust” “denial” laws (and similar repressive laws), which criminalize free expression, and inhibit examination of history.
Until that is done, untruth will continue to permeate German history and public life.

Maria Zakharova ridiculed British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy's claim that "the British-Ukrainian partnership goes back thousands of years."

“Maria Zakharova ridiculed British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy’s claim that “the British-Ukrainian partnership goes back thousands of years.” ” The roots of this friendship go back to the foot of the Egyptian pyramids? Why so little? They even hunted brontosauruses together ,” Zakharova joked.
During a visit to Kiev, David Lemmy stated that “Kiev princesses were marrying British princes” a thousand years ago.”
Lammy personifies the old Russian proverb, “an ape in a silk suit is still an ape“…(incidentally, that proverb was not originally meant to reference blacks, because there were none in Russia until the 20thC and even today they are few; it was basically metaphorical).
Here is “diversity-hire”, thick-as-two-short-planks, Lammy making a fool of himself once again, this time on Celebrity Mastermind:
Ha ha! Evergreen…
Incidentally, Ukraine only became a nominally independent state in 1991, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Its entire previous history was as part of the Russian state or its predecessor, Rus, though parts of Western Ukraine were within the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries.
Lammy is a total embarrassment as Foreign Secretary, but Starmer cannot easily sack him, having appointed him. Why? Because he is black. Simply that.
“The NHS has advertised almost a dozen ‘woke‘ jobs within the last few weeks, including one equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) role paying almost £123,000, MailOnline can reveal.
The recruitment drive comes days after Health Secretary Wes Streeting warned diversity and inclusion in the NHS has gone too far with some staff now promoting ‘anti-whiteness’ within the health service.
The Associate Dean with responsibility for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion role, advertised by NHS England, is based in the South West and comes with a salary of £122,470.
The salary is equivalent to the entry-level pay of up to three NHS doctors or four nurses.
According to the job description, the successful candidate can work from home 60 per cent of the time and will be responsible for ensuring medical students from different backgrounds have equal opportunities.”
[Daily Mail]
Wrong in every way. In any case, white English/British staff should have greater opportunities, because they are part of the UK’s proper folk-community.
“An asylum seeker from Pakistan has been awarded almost £100,000 after complaining that she was ‘treated like a criminal’ when she overstayed in the UK.

[Daily Mail]
British people find it hard to access peanuts-level State benefits, but a foreign migrant-invader, who entered this country on a fraudulent basis, is given £100,000! She should not even be here! You really could not make up what is happening in this country.
Incidentally, look at the readers’ comments on that Daily Mail report. It is only a thousand or more years of slow accretion of patience, and belief in a society under law, that is preventing a socio-political explosion in the UK (so far).

If you go into a shop in, say, Egypt, a small shop that in the UK (if owned by real British people) would probably have one or two people, maybe three at most, but probably one or two, working there, you will find that the owner has half a dozen people working there, probably related to him in some way. Open long hours, perhaps, and the people there doing little individually. Paid peanuts, of course. Likewise, offices.
I understand that India and other such poor countries are similar.
Non-crime “hate” incidents are, ipso facto, not crimes. If the police continue to be incapable of doing their proper job, and if they continue to behave like a blundering, hopeless, poundshop KGB, snooping on people’s opinions, tweets, blogs etc, they deserve to be, when the UK has a real government, dismissed and put to work as forced labour.
On those figures, the House of Commons might look like this: Reform UK 256, Labour 217, LibDems 78, Conservatives 43, Greens 6 (SNP 19 etc).
That would mean either a weak minority Reform government, or an exceptionally-weak Labour minority government backed by LibDems, SNP and other minor parties.
Arguably the most interesting aspect of the latest polling is the apparent continuing collapse of the Conservative Party (predicted, of course, on this blog). Not only 4th placed, after the LibDems in 3rd, but with little better than half as many MPs as the LibDems.
I read today that CCHQ may be unable to pay the rent on its office building. I would not be surprised to see quite a few Con Party MPs now jump to Reform in the hope of being accepted as candidates for the seats they currently occupy as “Conservatives”. I wonder how many will be deemed acceptable. If they delay too long crossing the line, they may not be accepted.
I was interested to read that article on the Conservative Home website. The comments were 95% or more pro-Reform and anti-Con Party.
“Blimey. Simon Myerson KC chattin’ about other barristers apologising and showing a lack of judgement. A judge decided Myerson engaged in “disgraceful abuse” of me and I’m still waiting for Myerson’s apology. It’s all covered in my next S-stack post out tomorrow. Link in bio.”
[James Wilson]
You will get no “apology” from Myerson. “They” always like to extract “apologies” from their enemies or opponents; they see that as victory (and humiliation for those “apologizing”).
Their instincts are, of course, not those of the European.
As Corbyn noted, years ago, “they” also usually lack a sense of irony, likewise the ability to see themselves.
Myerson was sacked as a p/t judge (“Recorder”) last year for his inability to stop savagely insulting others online. In short, he was found to lack the proper judgment required of those who aspire to sit on the Bench.

Saw two silly twits on Sky News earlier, being interviewed separately. The first was someone called General Shirreff (retired) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shirreff], who thinks that war with Russia is all but inevitable, that the UK should double or triple the amount it spends on armed services in all ways, and that it is essential for the UK to back up “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev).
I find it disturbing that an officer previously at such a high rank and with such heavy responsibilities until retirement should actually think that Britain should embroil itself even further in the brutal, shambolic, and corrupt Kiev-regime war, and try to confront Russia in Eastern Europe.
Come to that, the UK should also have steered clear of a number of other late-19thC and early 20thC conflicts: the Balkan war(s) of the 1990s, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Libyan uprising.
President Kennedy said, of General Curtis LeMay [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_LeMay], that, in a war requiring an all-out attack, you would want LeMay commanding the first wave of the bomber force, but that he was the last person who should decide whether there should be a war at all. Having heard General Shirreff’s attempt at geopolitical argument, I rather think that that is also my view of General Shirreff.
Any war with Russia would leave what is left of this country, and worth defending, in ruins. Irradiated ruins, over which those of us who survive will crawl in misery. Nein danke!
The said Chalk, who lost his Commons seat in 2024, was briefly Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice under Sunak. My thoughts about him, having now heard him (I was only peripherally aware of his existence, previously) relate more to his ideas about how to fund the justice system than to his actual decisions when in high office. He wants even more cuts to the “welfare” (social security) budget, and for that money to be directed to the courts, legal professions, prisons etc. A rehash of 2010-2015 “austerity” nonsense, in short, but with money given to the legal and justice system (and defence). He seemed a smug bastard, rather full of himself. Again, nein danke!
There comes a point when many people wonder whether we still have much worth “defending”. In fact, I think that many have already reached such a conclusion, which is why recruitment to the armed forces has become a thorny issue. I saw an ad for the Army today, showing an entirely black platoon in the field. Has the Army given up trying to recruit real British people?

In reality, everything that has been happening in all parts of occupied Palestine relates to the plan to settle immigrant Jews everywhere, then to expand Israeli Lebensraum and to create, over time, a “Greater Israel”:
“It’s not hard to figure out why Reform is now surging in the polls.
Millions of hardworking, tax-paying, law-abiding people in this country are utterly frustrated & fed-up with the elite consensus that has been imposed on them from above for the last 30 years.
An elite consensus that’s defined by a deliberate and extreme policy of mass, uncontrolled immigration which is making us poorer not richer, is driving crime and ushering in millions of people from culturally inferior and incompatible nations.
An elite consensus that’s given us broken borders which make a mockery of our claim to be a self-governing, sovereign nation, are allowing an assortment of murderers, rapists and criminals onto our streets, and which our so-called “leaders” refuse to fix because they’re more interested in helping strangers than protecting their own citizens and children.
An elite consensus that’s ripped open our economy to a rampant and relentless globalisation that benefits an alliance of urban elites, global corporations and immigrant workers but which is smashing the working class apart and hollowing out our national economy.
And an elite consensus that would rather see Britain waste billions of £££ overseas each year on foreign aid and trying to maintain our failing asylum system than redirect all this money from British taxpayers into fixing Britain and helping British families before reaching out to the wider world.
For much of the last thirty years this broken consensus has been imposed on the Forgotten Majority in this country by both Left and Right, by both Labour and the Tories —by the Uniparty. They are the architects of the disaster that you see around you today, of the managed decline of a once great and proud nation that you used to know and love but today no longer recognise.
And so just as you’d never invite back an architect who took the home that had been loved for generations and destroyed it the people out there are now starting to reject the architects of what they see around them today —endless, unavoidable, embarrassing, never-ending national decline.
They might not think Nigel Farage has all the answers. They might not think Reform is the perfect vessel. But what unites them is a feeling that is far more powerful than any one leader or party can convey. “We want our country back”.
This is why we are now starting to see wholesale and historic change in the national polls and, soon, the country. Because what I think we might be about to witness in British politics is not just a revolt against an out-of-touch elite minority but a full scale revolution against the Uniparty and all that it stands for.”

“‘No medical evidence’ to support Lucy Letby’s conviction, expert panel finds.
Babies the former nurse Lucy Letby was convicted of murdering were in fact the victims of “bad medical care” or deteriorated as a result of natural causes, an expert panel has concluded.
Outlining what the senior Conservative MP David Davis described as “one of worst injustices of recent times”, the international team told a press conference there was “no medical evidence” to support claims of deliberate harm.
A panel of experts, chaired by Dr Shoo Lee, examined the cases of 17 babies whom Letby was charged with murdering or harming at the Countess of Chester hospital in north-west England.
Lee, an emeritus professor at the University of Toronto, saidsaid the 14 experts had found “so many problems with the medical care” of the babies and nothing to support the claim they were attacked. “In summary, ladies and gentlemen, we did not find any murders,” he told a press conference in Westminster on Tuesday.”
[Guardian]
I personally have no fixed opinion at all on the matter (and have not read up on it in any great detail), but the way that the NHS now is, I do find it impossible to ignore the possibility that the unfortunate babies in question were not murdered but simply died as a result of poor care.
Also, if the Lucy Letby convictions turn out to have been unsafe, it would not be the first time that events triggering huge public anger will have also resulted in egregious miscarriages of justice.
David Davis has courage. He would have made a far better leader of the Conservative Party than any who actually were elected in the past 25-30 years.
Britain has no proper governance, whether central or local.

Trump is promulgating tariffs on imports from a range of countries and blocs presently major trading partners with the USA. Canada and the EU, to name but two. China, too.
As many are pointing out, tariffs reduce trade, because they make imported goods (and/or services) more expensive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff.
Looked at from a different point of view, there are reasons why Trump’s tariff barriers might be positive for the USA, mainly because they might allow American industry, in decline for half a century, to revive.
“The tariff has been used as a political tool to establish an independent nation; for example, the United States Tariff Act of 1789, signed specifically on July 4, was called the “Second Declaration of Independence” by newspapers because it was intended to be the economic means to achieve the political goal of a sovereign and independent United States.[93]“
[Wikipedia].
In the short-term, Trump’s tariff’s may well cause domestic prices (within the USA) to inflate. In the longer-term, however, those tariffs may also create American jobs, and also increase America’s long-term security.
The USA is one of the few economies capable of being an autarky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autarky]. Others would be Russia and mainland Europe (the EU, presently).
There is little doubt, though, that in those countries that produce items exported to the USA, the Trump tariffs will cause economic damage, possibly severe damage. That in turn will cause political fallout.
The USA is a huge and vibrant economy. If turned inward, that may be able to create the prosperity and job security so lacking at present in many American communities. The USA should have been isolationist in the 1940s and afterwards, as it had been in the 1930s. It seems to me that that would be a good policy now for the USA. Economic isolationism allied to political isolationism.
The USA should build up purely defensive military and naval power, but avoid doing what it has done, particularly, since 1941, i.e. interfere all over the world. If that is done, American security will thereby be increased.
