Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings me 6/10, thus doing slightly better than political journalist John Rentoul. I did not know the answers to questions 3, 5, 7, and 9; a couple of educated guesses paid off this week, if truth be known.

The party formerly known as Labour…

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13848783/Fury-Labour-MP-says-OAPs-choice-heating-on.html

A Labour MP was lambasted last night over ‘abhorrent’ claims pensioners losing their winter fuel allowance have a ‘choice’ whether to put the heating on.

Newly elected Crawley MP Peter Lamb said anyone who needs the payment to afford heating will still get it as he defended axing the subsidy.

Yet campaigners said millions of pensioners will struggle this winter without the subsidy, which is worth up to £300 on energy bills.

Defending his decision amid criticism it would let ‘old people go cold’, he tweeted: ‘If people choose not to put the heating on after several above-inflation increases in the state pension then that’s their choice.

Last night, after being approached by the Mail, Mr Lamb apologised.

We are told that the remedy for useless and nasty little freeloaders of that sort is to “vote them out” in four or five years’ time. Really? Yes, he probably will lose his easy £91,000+ salary and generous expenses (and other income sources) in due course, but do you think that really frightens him and the many others like him?

The bastard did not even have the guts to stand by his remarks; he just caved in when the Daily Mail approached him and told him that he was going to feature in the newspaper.

Strange, that quoted tweet by Myerson.

Western countries are taking very big risks by trying to allow Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory, said retired US Army officer Daniel Davis. ” We are literally playing with fire. The leaders of Western countries do not realize that with their decisions they are bringing the world closer to a new stage of military action, which could bring even greater risks of escalation ,” he added.” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_L._Davis].

Not bleeding as much as the children killed and mutilated by Israeli war crimes.

True, but Goodwin fails to mention the most important factor— the gene pool.

The only way to maintain civilization, and to then move it to a higher level, is to build upon a European-race foundation. That can be the basis for a later quantum leap in consciousness, a “super-race” if you like.

Importation of non-European populations destroys the possibility of creating even the early foundation for that. That is why the forces of Evil want race-consciousness and European race itself to be expunged.

I have thought for some time, 1-2 years, that we are closer to the edge than most believe. Think back to 1914 and 1939.

Now it seems that Starmer (a complete NWO/ZOG/Israel lobby puppet) is pushing even more than the American hawks for “Ukraine” (the Jewish regime in Kiev) to be able to attack all parts of Russia with long-range missiles. This is akin to Russia or Belarus supplying Cuba with rockets and allowing them to be used on all parts of the USA. Think about it.

I had thought Rudolf Steiner mistaken in answering a woman who asked him, in the early 1920s, whether she might reincarnate with him in the later 20th/21st Century (Steiner died in 1925), that she might, were she willing to walk with him across broken glass in a devastated Europe.

I also thought, up until about 15 years ago, that nuclear war between NATO and the Soviet Union, and then Russia, would never happen, or be allowed to happen.

As things stand, I am seriously wondering how much time our present civilization has left.

If war starts, in a big way, between Russia and the NATO alliance, it may take on a life of its own (literally), and prove hard to stop. It would probably escalate and go nuclear.

Starmer is only 2 months or so into a 4-5 year tenure (assuming of course that he and “diversity-hire-on-a-stick” Lammy do not help to precipitate a nuclear war before 2029).

Well, that’s that…

Many of the readers of the blog will be aware of my free speech trial, held in November 2023, and my sentencing hearing, which was held on 14 March 2024, i.e. about 6 months ago. I blogged about both:

The main part of the sentence imposed upon me for having allegedly blogged about various things, but principally the behaviour of Jewish Zionist groups and cabals, was to attend 15 “rehabilitation days” with the Probation Service people.

It turned out (I did not know) that the initial few meetings, mostly less than 1 hour long (one or two longer) do not even count towards the 15 imposed, but also that the “rehabilitation days” are not (at least in my case) days at all but hours or part-hours.

I found the process slightly opaque, but it seemed to be a mixture of conversation and slightly more structured psychological assessment designed to assess “risk”. Well, I do not go around shooting people or blowing them up, and I should have imagined that that was fairly clear from the start.

As for others being “influenced” by me, I only wish more were! Still, “one human soul is a big audience“, as some saint or other once said.

There was none of the armchair brainwashing I thought might be attempted.

Well, I attended about 4 “rehabilitation days” (as designated), and other meetings, I think 4, not designated (for some reason) as “rehabilitation days”. About 8 altogether.

It turns out that, at least as far as I can understand, I am not much of a “risk” to the public, even in a broad sense…

It also now transpires that, for reasons that are again slightly opaque to me, but apparently connected to larger events, I need not attend any more meetings, whether flagged as “rehabilitation days” or not, and I am deemed to have completed that part of my sentence, the other being the financial impost linked to the (purely notional) “costs of trial” and (risibly) “victim surcharge” (just another label meaning further fine)— £734 in all. About a third of that was crowdfunded by a handful of generous donors, the rest paid off in instalments the quantum of which was decided by me; I only have two small instalments outstanding at time of writing.

Incidentally, I parted on good terms with my Probation Service officer, a rather charming and polite young lady.

So there it is. “Free at last…I’m free at last!” (only joking)…

Of course, the “usual suspects” will almost certainly be plotting in their cellars, trying to get “the authorities” (police, CPS etc) to take their whining demands seriously, and “it ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings“, but for now at least the matter is at an end.

One man’s “extremism” is another man’s struggle for liberty

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13844609/Record-numbers-children-arrested-terror-suspects.html

A record number of children are being arrested as terror suspects, new Home Office figures have revealed.

Police detained 242 people on suspicion of terror offences in the year to June, of which 17% (40) were aged 17 and under.

This is up 60% from the 25 detained in the previous 12-month period and is the highest number since records began more than 20 years ago, when just two children were arrested in the year to June 2002.

MI5 director general Ken McCallum previously said terrorism inspired by Islamist ideology still accounted for about three-quarters of the security agency’s terrorist caseload.

But he warned that extreme right-wing terrorism was ‘sadly here to stay’ as he told how agents had been investigating teenagers as young as 13.

The latest statistics come after record numbers of children were revealed to have been reported to the Government’s anti-extremism services for expressing ‘far right’ ideology.

More than 2,100 under-15s were referred to Prevent in 2022/23 over fears they were being groomed by extremists or at risk of radicalisation.

Of them, 462 expressed ‘extreme right wing’ ideologies compared with 182 ‘Islamist’ referrals.

Officials describe Extreme Right-Wing Terrorism (ERWT) as using violence to further aims. Such ideologies can be broadly characterised as ‘Cultural Nationalism, White Nationalism and White Supremacism’, the Home Office says.

Many of the referrals and reports came from schools where children were identified as being at risk of radicalisation as a result of their extremist views, often associated with expressing hate speech involving racism, homophobia or anti-Semitic abuse.

Expressing sympathy or admiration for the likes of Adolf Hitler or praising extremists would be enough to risk being flagged to Prevent if overheard by a teacher, social worker or even work colleague.

A Home Office spokesperson said: ‘Extremism is an evolving threat, which threatens our democratic values and freedoms. Government is determined to take every possible step to tackle it and show it has no place in our society.‘”

[Daily Mail]

I blogged 6 years ago about the Prevent/Channel nonsense: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/05/30/one-mans-extremism-is-another-mans-struggle-for-liberty-and-justice/.

Imagine, teenagers being treated as serious “terror” suspects just because they own some anarchist book about bombs, or because they find Hitler or National Socialism interesting! Back in the 1970s, that would have been almost par for the course! This is all box-ticking nonsense, typical of the UK as it now is.

Freedom of expression in the UK is being closed down for no good reason at all. “They” (“the usual suspects”) are behind most of it. The slide has to be stopped, and then reversed.

As for that McCallum person, little seems known about his views, but I retain the right to assume that he may well be a nerdy waste of space…[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_McCallum]. I wonder.

Let us hope so.

NATO (meaning NWO/ZOG based in the USA) has as its greatest fear a Russia which joins with Ukraine (once the Jewish regime in Kiev is removed) and other former Soviet lands, albeit under different ideology.

Have you noticed how Zelensky pushes away anyone who can bring about a peaceful solution? Nothing suits him except the possibility of the army fighting to infinity. They drag this situation out indefinitely, because according to them there is no need to solve problems, to deal with the economy, social issues, elections …”, says Alexander Dubinsky, deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.”

The “VR” is the unicameral Parliament of Ukraine. The last elections were in 2019, and Zelensky and his cabal are now ruling illegally, albeit using a convenient law passed by them not very long ago, and under which new elections will only be held after the end of the present war…

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

I feel sorry for both the civilians whose former homes are now destroyed and the press-ganged Ukrainian soldiers fighting (are they aware?) for the money-laundering corruption of Zelensky and his Jewish-Zionist cabal, but Russia has to prevail in this terrible conflict, no matter what.

Just a few tens of millions out of the hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars and pounds thrown away on the Zelensky “Ukraine” bonfire.

Wall. Squad. End. (in a better UK).

NEW. Low-wage migrant workers (i.e. what we are encouraging) cost British taxpayer: £150,000 if they reach 66 £500,000 if they reach 80 £1m+ if they reach 100 Do not believe the expert class. OBR confirms what I’ve argued for yrs. Mass low-skill migration is cost not benefit to our economy https://mattgoodwin.org/p/the-big-tory-lie.

I went into a Lidl supermarket (about 6-7 miles from my home) yesterday, because they are having a “Central and Eastern European Week”. I like the Polish cherry/apple juice drink, and a few other things such as Turkish coffee.

Needing a pound coin for the trolley or cart, I approached an enormously fat African woman stacking shelves (so slowly that she appeared to be in a slow-motion film). She scarcely spoke English, but informed me (incorrectly, and not politely) that Lidl do not take coins, only cards. She obviously failed to understand why I wanted the coin (despite my having told her clearly).

That is the type of low-IQ, low-skill humanoid being imported into this country, not in the thousands but in the millions.

I should add that the other Lidl employee seen was a cashier, an American (white) man, who seemed drugged or something, and was like a refugee from a Grateful Dead concert. Why he is even in the UK? God knows.

What do you think Britain’s future will be if it has a population largely composed of humanoids of those types? Not to mention the English “wiggers”, Vicky Pollard lookalikes etc.

They know. This is a conspiracy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan [be aware that “the usual suspects” vandalize Wikipedia, and that includes the cited article. “They” also infiltrate the Wikipedia editing structure].

…and what does that foolish American think will be happening in the USA while that is happening? True, of Russia’s 6,000+ nuclear weapons, perhaps only 10% or 20% will successfully launch (i.e. 600-1,200), and perhaps (I do not know) only 10%-20% of those will reach the USA and UK etc without having been intercepted (i.e. 60-120).

So let us say that, at an absolute minimum, “only” 60 nuclear missiles hit American cities and other targets, and let us assume for the sake of argument that military targets are prioritized so that “only” 30 actual American cities are hit.

So you write off New York, LA, Chicago, Houston, Phoenix, Philadelphia, San Antonio, San Diego, Dallas, Jacksonville (and 20-40 others) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_population]. What life would the surviving Americans have?

Stop this mad rush to war.

Putting it frankly, even if you believe that “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) is “in the right” (I myself do not), is it worthwhile to —literally— fight for that rabble at the expense of much of the civilized world being destroyed and irradiated, including most of the USA?

Think again.

If that tweeter is typical of the American officer corps, God help America.

Same American ex-officer fails to understand that Putin does not rant and rave and wave his arms about like so many American politicians. Putin’s bite is far worse than his bark. Be warned.

I wonder what the American reaction would be if Russia were to supply some anti-USA state with long-range missiles capable of hitting most parts of the USA?

What, America has not “invaded” a sovereign state? It has invaded dozens since 1900, and in fact even over the past 50 years, and has also bombed and rocketed them and others.

Ukraine is not a real state in any case. It has only been regarded (by some) as a valid state for the past 30 out of the past 1,300 years, and is now really a “failed state” at best; more of a “non-state”.

I have to say, they look a pretty silly lot. Quelle surprise… Maybe, though, to look silly is an asset in their (alleged) occupation.

Never break the 11th Commandment…

Maybe the USA is now seeking a way to back out of its failed game.

The Chief of the SIS/MI6 said, just a few days ago, that “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) has “the will to fight“. Ha. Most Ukrainians are trying to avoid or evade the draft (and we could save many billions in two ways— 1. by taking away Zelensky’s ricebowl; 2. by cutting back severely the huge amounts wasted on a “Secret Intelligence Service” that seems to accomplish nothing much of the time.

[note: before I could publish, the tweet above was either unpublished or (more likely) censored in some way. The video clip showed the thugs of the Kiev regime chasing a “draft-dodger” (a person who, wisely, decided not to go easily to his death on the front-lines, fighting for Zelensky’s dictatorship].

The Labour MPs are just as bad as the “Conservative” rabble. Craven venal nobodies.

Starmer deserves [REDACTED]…

In Tottenham Court Road. How wonderfully “diverse” London now is. It could only be more “diverse” if it were in a total state of socio-economic collapse and disorder, with non-white, machete-wielding mobs rampaging. When will that be? 2044? 2034? Next year?

Someone with hundreds or thousands of millions wants more than money; he wants power and influence. Whole cabals may be the same. Look at Twitter/X. Until Elon Musk bought it (I do not know the situation since then), it only made a profit in one quarter of one year, out of about 60 such quarters. Profit was obviously not the motivation.

The “Conservative” rabble had to go, and that was the reason people voted to bin them. However, it has to be repeated that, of every 20 eligible voters, only 4 voted Labour.

Starmer-Labour has no real or genuine mandate.

In fact, a very high proportion of UK prisoners who are “British” nationals are also non-white, a fact which I noticed when I started at the Bar over 30 years ago. White British people are probably no more than half of the UK prison population, if that, despite comprising, still, maybe 80% of the UK population as a whole.

The pro-Kamala Harris vote is simple: non-whites who will vote for her because she is non-white (part-Jamaican, part-Tamil Indian), and women who will vote for her because she is a woman.

Democracy at its least-logical, least-valid.

Behind it all, huge amounts of money, and (of course) “the usual suspects”…

In my last decade or so, or “time of troubles”, I have had the unsought opportunity to assess at first-hand the abilities and attitudes of what now passes for a “police force” in England. Unimpressive. Semi-educated young (mostly young) men and women, their little heads full of “diversity” and “anti-racism” nonsense, purporting to lay down the law (which they plainly often do not even know or understand), and acting, pathetically, as a kind of poundshop Stasi.

As far as doing their proper job is concerned, the police in the UK are almost useless. On the two occasions over the past 15 years when I have been the victim of acquisitive crime (once when a whole wheel was stolen from my car, another time when a previous car was broken into and the door almost wrenched off), the police did nothing but record the incident and give me a number for my insurers, not even when (in relation to the wheel theft) I passed on, online, very cogent evidence as to the likely “type” and almost exact location of the likely perpetrators.

Useless. Not worth their salt.

Exactly.

Brava! to her.

Capitalism” is too broad. Call it “finance-capitalism”. When I was 20, I did not think there was any real difference. I am 68 now, as of a week or so ago, so older and, dare I say, wiser.

…and if that were to happen, the Jewish “human rights” lawyers and their dupes, in the UK, will still be quibbling and saying that that is not, technically, “genocide”…

Think of Starmer. Not a Jew, but a former supposed “human rights” specialist married to a Jewish or part-Jewish woman; he, more recently, thought it perfectly acceptable for the (Israeli) Jews to cut off water to the people of Gaza, including the civilian population .

Good grief. I have used that airport myself a couple of times.

I mean, as to what the socio-political situation here might be like in 5, 10, 20, 50 years. If they have, then their evil is even more culpable.

Diary Blog, 8 September 2024, with some examination of the role of atrocity narratives in modern history

Morning music

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrushka_(ballet)]

Atrocity stories

Nihil novi…

As a matter of fact, most WW2 atrocity narratives in Europe can be traced back to WW1 British “black propaganda”. A few used in the First World War were not recycled for Second World War use, though, because obviously invented and very hard to believe (e.g. the German Army of 1914 allegedly having used Belgian nuns as bell-clappers in cathedrals).

More recently, many will recall the lying 15-y-o Kuwaiti girl who, after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990, claimed that Iraqi troops had taken hospital incubators, leaving hundreds of babies to die: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony.

In 1992, it was revealed that Nayirah’s last name was al-Ṣabaḥ (Arabic: نيرة الصباح) and that she was the daughter of Saud Nasser Al-Saud Al-Sabah, the erstwhile Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States. Furthermore, it was revealed that her testimony was organized as part of a wider public relations campaign conducted by the Kuwaiti government-in-exile’s Citizens for a Free Kuwait, which sought to encourage American military involvement against Iraq’s occupation of Kuwait through coordination with the American public relations firm Hill & Knowlton. In the aftermath of the Gulf War, the Nayirah testimony came to be regarded as a classic example of modern atrocity propaganda.[1][2]

Nayirah’s story was initially corroborated by Amnesty International, which published a report about the supposed killings[3] and testimony from Kuwaiti evacuees. Following the liberation of Kuwait, international media crews were given access to the country. A report by ABC News found that “patients, including premature babies, did die, when many of Kuwait’s nurses and doctors … fled” but Iraqi troops “almost certainly had not stolen hospital incubators and left hundreds of Kuwaiti babies to die.”[4] Later, Amnesty International USA reacted by issuing a correction, with executive director John Healey subsequently accusing the H. W. Bush administration of “opportunistic manipulation of the international human rights movement.”[5]

[Wikipedia]

In other words, the guilty parties were Kuwaiti doctors and nurses.

Incidentally, I have myself met only a small number of Kuwaitis in my life, about a dozen, but I have to say that every single one I have met in the past was a useless, unpleasant, and completely untrustworthy waste of space.

I myself was in the USA in 1990, and remember the barrage of TV propaganda pushing that untruthful testimony, as well as other stories designed to get the clueless American masses behind Desert Shield and, later, Desert Storm.

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

Apropos of nothing much, I think that the American names for military and other operations are much more evocative than the British equivalent, which are deliberately disconnected from the operations concerned, so that some espionage plot might be designated “Operation Morris Minor” or some such.

Hard to believe that that happened 33 years ago. The Second World War officially ended on 2 September 1945 (I was born on the same day and month but 11 years later, in 1956).

33 years after the end of that terrible war brings us to 1978. By that time, a new generation, my generation, born after 1945, thought of “the War” as mere long-ago history. I presume that that is how young people today think of the Gulf War or, even more so, the Falklands campaign of 1982 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falklands_War].

Atrocity propaganda is now an inevitable part of almost all human conflict, as was seen in the fairly recent (October 2023) attack by the Gazan organization, Hamas, on Southern Israel. At time of writing, people are still arguing over whether Hamas operatives “beheaded babies”, but it seems that they did not. The story that they had done so, though, was much used by Israel and the worldwide Jewish lobby to deflect criticism of the initial Israeli attacks, which happened (on a huge scale, though similar attacks had happened for years) from October 2023, killing, wounding, and making homeless the civilian population of Gaza (including babies).

The ultimate “atrocity propaganda”, of course, remains the WW2 “holocaust” narrative, and particularly the “gas chambers” part of that. Other parts of that narrative (armchairs upholstered in Jewish skin, lampshades made of the same material etc) have joined yet other “holocaust” atrocity stories in what Marx called “the dustbin of history“, abandoned even by the Zionists, but the “gas chambers” remain. Not as actual relics— there are none, unless you count those constructed after 1945 at Auschwitz in order to show the credulous masses of West and East what German SS personnel were alleged to have done. The “relics” that remain are psychological, in the minds of millions, particularly in the Anglophone countries.

One can see why the Zionists persist in trying to maintain the “gas chambers” narrative. Without it, the whole Jewish “holocaust” narrative (as something above and beyond what was suffered by other races or peoples in the 20th Century) falls. What would remain, were the world to accept that the “gas chambers” never existed, would be the actual truth— that quite large numbers of Jews in Europe, especially Eastern Europe, were treated badly, with many of them actually shot, but none actually gassed (as per the “official” historical narrative).

That more truthful version of 20thC history, however, would put Jewish suffering on —at most— the same level as the sufferings of others: in WW2, the sufferings of Russians and others brutalized and/or shot by the Soviet government, and the sufferings of Germans brutalized and/or killed by Soviet forces and or by other forces, including the Allied bombing of Germany 1941-1945 (which killed somewhere between 350,000 and 800,000 Germans), as well as the various groups treated badly by some German forces.

The “gas chambers” narrative is really the only claim that, if accepted, would tend to put the experience of Jews in the early/mid 1940s into a box above and beyond what other peoples suffered during the 20thC (and before, and after). That is why the Zionists keep pushing it.

Very true.

Many seem to regard Divine intervention as the only thing that might stop or delay the migration invasion of the UK. Whatever one thinks of that, the System parties will not stop it; indeed, they encourage it.

Something for Richard Moore to think about before he broadcasts more pro-“Ukraine” (Kiev-regime) propaganda bs.

Hardball.

Well, as a pensioner now myself, I support that on a personal as well as general policy level, especially as I get a very reduced State Pension (by reason of having been overseas much of the time).

Wait a minute… Only yesterday, Sir Richard Moore, the Chief of SIS/MI6, told the UK television audience that “Ukraine” has “the will to fight“. In reality, Ukrainians are desperate to avoid or evade the draft. The Kiev regime will collapse before long. Russia will ultimately prevail.

If only I had the power to do something about all of that, especially that last item.

Exactly. The NHS is very much a “hit or miss” service now.

What is “on the rise” is a growing anger that nothing works properly or easily in the UK, and a growing anger about the migration-invasion (a million or more each year), and also a growing realization that “two-tier” Keir is incapable of improving this country and indeed is determined to (further) ruin it (as well as being an unmandated petty dictator).

…and another 20,000 who entered the UK “legally” in the past week; at least superficially “legally”.

That is in the northern part of Donetsk Oblast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloviansk.

Only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters voted Labour at the 2024 General Election. About 3 voted Con, 2 voted Reform UK, 2 voted LibDem, and 1 voted Green. 8 refused to vote.

Labour has no real mandate.

Hard to know what to believe.

So far, mainly threats. In a sense, a clever tactic, in that Israeli government, society, and economy seem paralyzed by the fear or expectation.

The appointment of an unfunny and uninteresting pseudo-comic American lesbianka as London “Night-time Tsar” (paid £133,000+ p.a. for a 3-day week) must rate as one of the most absurd appointments of the last decade, along with the elevation of “Boris” Johnson’s alleged illegitimate daughter, Charlotte Owen, as a member of the House of Lords in 2023 at the age of 29, despite having had no significant work or academic background. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte_Owen,_Baroness_Owen_of_Alderley_Edge]

Having said that, I now see that, after the unexplained elevation of Charlotte Owen, an equally-absurd “ennoblement” occurred this very year, when one Carmen Smith of the joke-“nationalist” Welsh party, Plaid Cymru, was made a member of the House of Lords aged just 27. A woman whose academic background consists of having attended one year, if that, of a 3-year law degree in Wales, before she dropped out, and whose work experience consists of about 18-24 months as an office gopher for several organizations (she spent 6-10 months in each). Pathetic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmen_Smith,_Baroness_Smith_of_Llanfaes.

Appointments of the type noted above bring the whole system of Parliament into (even more) opprobrium.

The Starmer-Labour government now intends to remove the remaining hereditary peers from the Lords. In principle, I would have no argument with that for several reasons: firstly, the hereditary peers (both those still sitting and the larger number removed by Blair in 1999) almost all had their “aristocratic” family pedigrees dating from as recently as 1900.

Until the era of George III (18thC), the House of Lords numbered only about 50 peers. By 1999, all but a handful of peers could trace their “aristocratic” lineage back only as far as the Lloyd George era of the early 20thC, when sales of honours happened on a wide scale.

The House of Lords has always, certainly from 1900, been a bit of a fake in terms of “aristocratic” credentials.

Having said that, Blair’s typically wrongheaded reform of 1999 has merely resulted in an ever-growing number of time-served ex-MPs, political donors, and low-grade cronies etc being given life peerages. Over 700 at latest count.

The two mentioned above, Charlotte Owen and Carmen Smith, are just the tip of the iceberg. As long ago as 2011, useless Oona King, half American black, half Jewish, was put into the Lords having lost her seat as MP in 2005, and having failed to become Mayor of London: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oona_King. She had ridden the “diversity” carousel to get that far, and continues to do so, though she retired from the House of Lords in 2024 and is now “head of diversity” at, of all things, Uber taxis.

I read Oona King’s book of memoirs, The Oona King Diaries: House Music, many years ago. Utterly cretinous. I should have been able to refer readers of the blog to my Amazon review of the book, but the “usual suspects” (malicious Jew-Zionists) had my reviews all taken down over a decade ago. I am now unable to review on Amazon, despite once having been voted a “top 100” reviewer. “Free society”?

There seems little point in having the House of Lords at all now, even as a so-called “revising chamber”, a job at which the Lords is useless anyway.

Goodwin forgot to mention that the leading cabals in all the System parties are effectively signed-up to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan. They want to swamp the UK with non-whites.

A number of NATO states, including the most important of all, the USA, are trying to edge away from the upcoming defeat of the Kiev regime.

Sirsky: The armed forces of Ukraine are inferior to the Russian army ” Russia really has an advantage in aviation, missiles, artillery, in the amount of ammunition used, and of course, in manpower, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles ,” said the commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian army, Alexander Sirsky. According to his words, mobilization is now a priority for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.”

Russia could “win” this long and bitter conflict by simply flattening Kiev, but has not wanted to do that. Kiev was the first capital of Kievan Rus, before Moscow was even founded. It is a basic part of the Russian imperium, part of its history.

I would probably not imprison “two-tier” Keir Starmer or dictatorial expenses cheat and freeloader Yvette Cooper even had I the power to do so. ‘Nuff said…

Many were British ex-soldiers of, mostly, private-soldier rank, who found that the front lines were not only hazardous but very poorly-paid.

As for Ukrainians, most potential recruits are either evading the draft or have already avoided it by relocating to other countries.

According to the malicious, tiny but very well-funded Jewish/Zionist “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], as many as 96% of “British” Jews consider themselves to be “Zionist”, and most of them also support what the Israeli Jews are doing in Gaza and elsewhere.

That last tweeter is wrong; she compares one or two days at Dresden with the whole 5+ years of war in the UK.

The more accurate figures are: about 60,000 killed in Britain, as against (disputed) 350,000 to 800,000 killed in Germany. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_bombing_during_World_War_II.

The increasing support for Reform UK among (but not exclusively) “the young” seems to mirror the support for the AfD in Germany.

For me, Reform UK is not the way to go: pro-Israel, pro the UK Jewish lobby, economically “libertarian” etc. I agree with the Reform UK hostility to mass immigration, but not with much else they say. For me, real social nationalism is the way to go.

Still, the overall direction of travel is hopeful.

You see tweets, or on TV, that “at least the migrants are prepared to work“, but first of all that applies to some, not all; secondly, what that naive assessment omits to add is that the kind of work most of them (the ones that are willing to work) want to do (or can do, having no usable qualifications or skills, or English language), is in the “black economy”. No income tax, no VAT etc. That way, they can get whatever State benefits they can blag as well as whatever they can make on the side, so rent paid, pocket money, maybe disability too in some cases. Child benefit, if applicable. You get the idea.

The bigger picture, as Goodwin has said, is that that whole process traps this country into being a low-wage, low productivity economy. Exactly the opposite of where we should be heading.

That would be good.

The self-describing “left” is particularly prone to denunciation. In fact, in modern Britain, that is its sole characteristic of note. No more do they want to revolt against privilege, or have a revolution of some sort. No, all they want to do is to obey the dictates of the State (especially if fronted by a “Labour” label), and to “deplatform” or “cancel” (censor or ban) anyone thought to be an independent thinker (usually someone labelled “racist” or “fascist” or “Nazi“). You saw the syndrome during the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, of course. Anyone questioning the nonsense pumped out by Government or “SAGE” (I preferred “DUMB”— the Department Under Matt and Boris) was called a “Covidiot” by real idiots such as Piers Morgan.

You can send 200 to somewhere like Rwanda, maybe even 2,000; at a pinch, maybe even 20,000. You cannot, however, send 200,000, or 2 million, or 4 million, or 6 million or more.

The United States is afraid of losing Ukrainian troops before the November presidential elections, because it will be very bad for the Biden administration, and especially for Kamala Harris.

Ukraine, even with American or Western weapons, cannot improve the situation on the battlefield, but the White House has only one goal – to ensure that the Ukrainians do not fail before the elections ,” says John Mearsheimer, an American political scientist.

Zelensky in an interview with NBC News: Russia must be present at the second peace summit He said that Ukraine and the signatories of the Swiss resolution will work out a plan to end the war by this event and will propose it for the second summit.

“Representatives of Russia must be present there. We understand that without the Russian side, it is very difficult to end this war diplomatically. And all countries asked us to have representatives of the Russian Federation at the second summit. We said, we are not against it, let’s prepare a plan and invite them.”

Zelensky knows that the Kiev regime is losing. Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

Who that Labour ministerial drone is, I do not know. He’s talking absolute shite.

Thangam “Debbonaire” (real/original name is/was “Singh”), is expressing exactly what I predicted “Labour”-label would do, i.e. “stop the boats” by simply rubberstamping 95% of applicants for “asylum”, and allowing the invaders to enter “legally” via air, train, or ferry; thus not solving at all the actual problem of the swamping of the UK by migration-invasion, but keeping it off the TV screens, off Twitter/X, out of the newspapers etc.

It’s true. That weird individual’s name is Pitcavage, a Jew-Zionist who has made a kind of career as a supposed “expert” on “terrorism and extremism” with the very well financed Jew-Zionist snoop and anti-free-speech group, the “ADL”, in the USA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Pitcavage.

Incidentally, one notes that that individual’s Jewish and Zionist origins are not mentioned on Wikipedia, which is often vandalized by Jewish/Zionist/Israeli groups such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” in the UK (the “CAA” even advertised openly for supporters with Wikipedia accounts to collaborate with them in “editing” some Wikipedia topics).

Politicized law under the Starmer-Labour dictatorship.

The point is that the UK is a failing society, overall.

Part of that is caused by the ever-lessening white European proportion of the population, and the ever-increasing non-white part of the population.

Connected with all that are falling standards in all areas: (real) education, administration, the justice system, the police, the NHS, the political system; and of course added to that the unjust and actually ridiculous First Past The Post voting system, as a result of which we now have a Labour Friends of Israel “elected” dictatorship of very little, very petty, people.

A “Labour”-label dictatorship “elected” by only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters, and by only 4 out of every 12 voters who actually voted. A government without legitimacy, without a popular mandate.

I recall mainly his talk with the then Prime Minister’s daughter, a rather attractive young lady who had been at an expensive school (Rugby) in England for several years (followed by 3 years at the LSE). That daughter had married an English tattooed heavy metal band leader and biker from somewhere “up North” (Leeds, I think); he died at the early age of 50, but the couple had already divorced: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugenia_Tymoshenko.

All the Prime Ministers of the UK back to 1997 need to be put on trial and then dealt with.

I am not usually a “hanger and flogger”, but it would please me to see Liz Truss’s carcass swinging and twisting in the wind.

Leaving the individual case behind, there is something very wrong with a system that elevates such unworthy individuals to the highest non-hereditary office. Not just Liz Truss (who only became an MP on her back in the first place). Look at Theresa May, who was an executive at the BACS cheque-clearing organization— hardly cutting-edge. That is before we even get onto the subject of “Boris”-idiot and others, including Starmer.

A suitable punishment for Liz Truss and others involved would be to lose their stolen money (e.g. via hyperinflation, or confiscation) and then to get cancer, the treatment for which they would be unable to receive without payment, which payment they would be unable to afford. That would be too just in this world, though, I suppose.

She says that she did not meet the Governor of the Bank of England because she did not want to undermine the then Chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng (aka “Woollyhead Trussbanger”).

Starmer and his cabal are rubbish, and tyrannical rubbish at that, but the only reason that they are sitting pretty with their huge Commons majority is because of the 14 years of equally rubbish “Conservative” misgovernment.

At the end, the voters were almost all desperate to bin the “Conservative” Party. Only 3 people out of every 20 eligible voters voted Con (3 out of every 12 that actually voted).

Both Starmer and ridiculous Ed Davey, the LibDem leader, benefited from the desperate wish of most voters to bin Sunak and his MPs. Starmer and Davey also benefited from the UK’s unjust and illogical FPTP voting system.

The USA is using Europe, particularly Poland, the pribaltika, and the UK as a first line of defence in any near-future and massive NATO-Russia conflict. European states should declare neutrality, and remove American bases and weapons.

An extreme example, of course, but even in the Second World War, the German High Command valued the average military units of the combatant nations as follows: every Waffen SS unit was worth 2 ordinary Wehrmacht units, 3 British or Russian units and 5 American ones.

Obviously, there are exceptions the other way. I recall meeting, many years ago, a few Americans from the more elite parts of the US Army and Navy, and they were very different.

Still, as General Schwarzkopf said, “special forces do not win wars“, at least not big wars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Schwarzkopf_Jr.

The Kiev regime may become more powerful in terms of destructive rocket and drone activity, but the war will be won by the side with the greater number of soldiers, tanks, logistical capability, air power and, yes, rockets and drones.

That would be the Russian side.

The Kiev regime is having to press-gang recruits, and thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands are still trying to leave Ukraine and join the millions of others beyond the borders.

Both the USA and European states such as the UK are funneling money, arms and ammunition to Zelensky’s dictatorship, but with people willing and able to fight, that will not turn the tide of Russian advance. As to the money, well…

They look like Roma Gypsies to me, though well-disguised.

I know little about Lineker, and have little interest in him except insofar as he seems to be a typical msm talking head enemy of the British people. Apart from that, it just seems mad to me that anyone at all should be paid a million a year for shooting the breeze about football (or anything else, even serious topics) on TV. The BBC is an over-resourced disgrace now. The key is to either junk the “licence fee” (enforced tax) or to return the BBC to its Reithian principles: “inform, educate, entertain“, and in that order.

526. In one day. Then multiply that by about 10 to include all the “legal” migrant-invaders.

Germans (real Germans)— OK. Others (non-Europeans with German passports or identity documents)— NEIN DANKE!

Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and other pro-immigration fanatics, such as Zoe Gardner etc, don’t want to hear about the very dark results of migration invasion. They want to sit in their pleasant homes in leafy areas, talking down —on the msm— both to the British people and to people like me (who really do “know better”).

Stray thought

Dan Hodges seems to have forgotten (assuming that he ever knew) that, in the Soviet Union, in Stalin’s day and even afterward, ordinary criminals were often treated better than “politicals”.

In any case, the “police state” aspect in question is not Hodges’ “early release” red herring but the incarceration of people for minor disorder, or for tweeting comments etc.

The present UK situation is similar (don’t forget Starmer’s extreme pseudo-socialist ideological background): the real criminals are being released after having served only 40% —with other measures in place, as little as 20%— of their headline sentences, but —by any other name— political, or treated as political, prisoners are being swiftly incarcerated, and are being more harshly sentenced as well.

Incidentally, not only those convicted following the recent protests and/or “riots” (nb. I myself do not consider saying “boo!” to a police riot squad operative, pushing at his plastic shield, looting a sausage-roll shop, or even overturning the odd police car, a “riot” nor indeed a “political protest” as such).

A while ago, I read that a young man had served his entire headline sentence (6 years, I think), having been convicted on one of those trumped-up bs pseudo-“terrorism” charges the UK police and Clown Prosecution Service seem to love today (they often involve an accusation that the accused shared some or another “terrorist” material online, and at the same time owned completely lawful objects such as copies of Mein Kampf or a picture of Hitler; random pieces of circumstantial “evidence” put in to bamboozle a typical low-IQ rubber-stamp “British” jury).

More broadly, the lack of real knowledge of history is widespread now. As G.K. Chesterton said, he feared the uneducated less than he feared the badly-educated.

I was just watching a recorded episode of The Chase [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chase_(British_game_show)], first broadcast some years ago.

The “Chaser”, Jenny Ryan [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenny_Ryan], fluffed the question “which of these three was first to be named as Time magazine Man of the Year in 1923?“, the three being Mussolini, Hitler, or Stalin.

I thought Mussolini (because of the October 1922 March on Rome, after which Mussolini became Prime Minister), and that turned out to be the correct answer. However, it occurred to me that there was at least a possibility that the correct answer would be Hitler (because of the Beer Hall Putsch of November 1923).

What swung it for me was that Hitler was still only a fringe figure in 1923, whereas Mussolini had taken over his country’s leadership. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benito_Mussolini#Appointment_as_Prime_Minister.

However, Jenny Ryan, “the Vixen”, thought that Stalin was the right answer, afterwards commenting that she had “thought that Stalin was a much bigger figure back then“, thus showing ignorance of the history of all three countries concerned (Stalin’s more or less supreme power in the Soviet Union only dated from about 1928, though it increased from 1924; in 1923, Lenin was still alive, and the leadership still somewhat collegial). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin#1924%E2%80%931927:_Succeeding_Lenin.

“The Vixen” later made another mistake on the same show, in failing to choose Offa as the answer to a question on Anglo-Saxon history; she chose “Cnut” (Canute), but he was not even an Anglo-Saxon king (though admittedly a king during the Anglo-Saxon period). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offa_of_Mercia; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cnut.

That’s the problem with such quiz shows, esp. The Chase. The “Chasers” and others have memorized lists, and (some) facts, but generally have no real in-depth background. I have noticed that with other Chasers, such as “The Beast”, Mark Labett.

I wonder what (((special interest group))) mainly influences the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship? Need one ask?

In the end, though, the Starmer-Labour government, for all its “massive majority” triumphalism, only got the votes of 4 people out of every 20 (eligible), 4 out of every 12 people (that voted). Quite a number of even the voters that voted Labour only did so to make sure that the Conservative Party lost the election.

The real support for Labour is about 10% of the population. The real support for the attack on free speech etc is even smaller, only a few percent of the whole population.

Starmer and Labour have no legitimate mandate.

Diary Blog, 17 August 2024, with thoughts about David Starkey, dissidence, free speech

[Knightsbridge, 1930s]

Saturday quiz

A poor week. I scored only the same as political journalist John Rentoul— 3/10. I knew only the answers to questions 1, 2, and 5; had I thought a bit more, I should also have recalled no. 9 and no. 10.

Talking point

As David Starkey says, Starmer is (along with others and, particularly but not exclusively, in “the party formerly known as Labour”) attempting to institute a kind of “woke” and multikulti police state.

Where I differ from Starkey is in having no faith in the idea that a different ethos of national identity can suddenly emerge or be fostered, not without a homogenous population. The UK population is going the other way, becoming ever-more heterogenous, and spinning out of control.

I also differ from Starkey in that he thinks, or hopes, that, if he or someone else puts forward a reasoned and reasonable argument, eventually people will accept the propositions put forward. The credo of the traditional or classical academic.

All very well, as far as it goes, but Mao put forward the credo of Realpolitik, that is “political power comes out of the barrel of a gun“.

Not that that I agree wholeheartedly with that Maoist quotation either. The —by any other name— “revolution” in the DDR/East Germany in 1989 was not violent. There were vast, though peaceful, demonstrations in several major DDR cities (Dresden, Leipzig etc). The Lutheran Church was part of all that.

The East German state was still arresting some dissidents even in 1989, but the heart had gone. I recall the strange feeling I had when spending a couple of days in the DDR in 1988. Like a stage set of a state rather than a real one, an impression made stronger by the seemingly almost-depopulated southern parts of East Germany through which I travelled by car. I have blogged once or twice previously about my impressions of the place(s).

As a matter of fact, the slightly contrived “revolutions” of the late 1980s in Romania, Czechoslovakia etc were mainly non-violent, as they were in the pribaltika (Baltic states). I myself saw Czechoslovakia briefly in 1988, just before it all happened, and was in Poland several times in 1988 and 1989.

In Poland, even in 1988, one got the impression that the state there was going through the motions of being a “socialist” state but that, just under the surface, the whole population, pretty much, was “dissident” in one way or another; a kind of vast, non-violent anti-socialist conspiracy of a whole people.

Even in the Soviet Union, a huge “revolution” happened over several years in the late 1980s and early 1990s, mostly though not entirely peaceful, and including (as in Romania and elsewhere) many elements of the socialist-state structure.

Starkey is or was a Conservative, politically. He seems at least slightly taken with Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick. Why? The first is a Nigerian (though born in London) and so, in my opinion, unfitted by that fact alone to be a British political leader, let alone Prime Minister. I have, also, never heard anything worthwhile from her.

As to Jenrick, I have several problems with him too. He appears to be at least partly English, but his full provenance is not in the public domain; at least, I myself have never seen it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Jenrick#Early_life_and_non-political_career.

Born 1982, qualified late as solicitor, aged 26, but was in legal practice for only about 4 years (with two of the leading American law firms, sequentially; presumably quite junior), and was then (somehow; how?) a director of Christie’s auctioneers (though only until he became an MP a few months later).

Jenrick’s provenance interests me. It also disquiets.

Jenrick, yet another member of Conservative Friends of Israel, is tied up with Jewish businessmen and property-developer sharks, and pushed for the ruination of the small park by the Palace of Westminster by the proposed construction of a hugely-ugly “holocaust” “memorial” and propaganda centre.

In addition, Jenrick ordered, as minister for immigration, murals for children of migrant-invaders to be painted over because the colourful murals might give them pleasure and comfort.

No-one, I think, could accuse me of being either pro-immigration or in favour of granting privileges to migrant-invaders, but that mean-spirited targeting of any small children of such invaders by Jenrick felt morally wrong to me.

Like Starmer, Jenrick is married to a Jewish woman and has had children with her.

Jenrick just feels wrong to me. He’s a bad apple.

As to the Starkey interview, while I can agree with much of what he says there, he is too much in the ivory tower in the end.

Ironically, for someone “cancelled” by the System for making “racist” remarks, he seems to me insufficiently so. How does he imagine this country will recover in the way that he hopes when 20% of the population is already non-European, and with another ~million coming in every year at present? Make that, conservatively, about a 2% increase annually.

It seems to me that Starkey knows in his heart that I am right (even if, as is quite likely, he has never heard of me), but fears to say so; don’t forget that he “apologized” and tried to retract after he was “cancelled”. Never pretend to apologize to either the mob or to “them” (((them))).

The video is worth watching, though.

Further talking points

Good grief.

Listen to that “muppet” (on the second video clip), one Benjamin Butterworth. Complete idiot. Complete traitor to this country’s people and their future, too. Former (?) Chairman of Young Labour (in London). Scribbled a few times for the Guardian some years ago, apparently. https://www.theguardian.com/profile/benjamin-butterworth.

Poor thinking skills. Very poor, in fact. A fanatic, but one with nothing of interest to say. Claims that “legal immigrants” (the vast majority of all immigrants) all “come into the country with a job“. A straight lie. Huge numbers enter as supposed “fiances”, “fiancees”, “spouses”, “students”, “family members”, “asylum seekers” etc; and even those supposedly entering “with a job” (on work visas) are often not bona fide at all.

I fear that much of Starmer’s strongest support comes from semi-educated and anti-British fanatics of that sort.

I rather think that GB News had that Butterworth on because they knew that he would create a kind of petty storm among the discussion panel.

Interesting to note that the msm always applauds “resistance” (including violent “resistance”) in, for example, historically, the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, Italy, Spain, and in various other parts of the world; in South America, even in contemporary North America and Europe, so long as Jews, non-whites, or sometimes Communist partisans, are doing the various forms of “protest”, but as soon as contemporary white people do the same, they must, apparently, be shut down, “cancelled”, even prosecuted and, indeed, even imprisoned. Not even because they have been violent, in fact. Look at Jez Turner, imprisoned for making a speech, Alison Chabloz, for singing satirical songs and posting cartoons; more recently, Sam Melia, for having published stickers the subject-matter of which was not even unlawful.

Remember “two-tier Keir” and thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner being photographed literally “taking the knee” (bowing down before) the fraudulent “Black Lives Matter” nonsense?

Carol Vorderman thinks that Nigel Farage is a snake-oil salesman. Well, not much argument from me on that, but wait until La Vorderman discovers the truth about Starmer, Yvette Cooper, Rachel Reeves etc…

Of course, the main reason that Farage recently distanced himself from the English protests, and especially their riotous offshoots, was because he does not want OFCOM to pressure GB News to cut off his work (and money).

Well, I certainly hear what tweeter Paul Embery is saying there, but look at the alternative— Kamala Harris, a hugely-ignorant non-white who will be but a figurehead while the “Deep State” around her, and really running the show, foments war with Russia, a war they think they can “win” but which —if it happens— will leave Europe, as well as North America and European Russia, in irradiated ruins.

Dead men walking looting.

The only question is whether Putin will simply utilize conventional military methods to push the Kiev-regime forces out of that part of the Kursk region which they have recently invaded, or whether he will do something entirely unexpected by the Western msm, such as use very powerful bombs and missiles (even tactical nuclear ones) to blast clear the whole of the occupied area. There is an outside chance that he might even launch a massive air bombardment on Kharkov or even Kiev.

Whatever the Russian response is, the Kiev-regime forces will be unable to hold the recently-invaded territory. Zelensky himself has admitted as much, though saying that Kiev “is not interested” in doing so. If that is so, why invade that territory in the first place? Clearly, as a public relations exercise to keep Western arms and money flowing in.

Meanwhile, in the Donbass region to the south, Russian forces are steadily advancing at present. About a mile per day. Not spectacular, but the Kiev-regime forces, short of —most of all— soldiers, will have no chance of regaining those areas, or of stopping the Russian advance, all the more so now that some of the better Ukrainian detachments have been re-deployed to assist with the Kursk incursion.

Life in remote Western Siberia

A simple and, in many respects, hard life. Not completely isolated, though. I see that they seem to have electricity (“Socialism means Soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country“— Lenin) , and that their milk comes from a carton rather than from their one cow.

The old lady is cooking (I think) manti [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manti_(food)] or pelmeni [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelmeni], foods quite similar inter se, and not dissimilar to ravioli. Cuisine is not really my forte, so I had better say no more. As for what she is frying, maybe cubes of bacon, maybe pork fat.

The old man is seen mending his fishing traps (there is a nearby small river).

Retired people in Russia now get a pension of about £200 a month. Not much (under Yeltsin, it was only about £25, and not always paid), but it must go quite far in a Siberian village. Milk, tea, bread, flour etc.

It occurs to me that, were the world to be hit by nuclear war, and depending on how severe that would be, people of that type might survive better than those who live, as most of us do, in Western (or Russian) cities, towns, suburbs, or partly-suburbanized countryside.

As someone once said of the Louisiana Cajuns living in and around the Mississippi Delta, “when the rest of the world is starving, these people will still be eating.”

Starmer-Labour is clueless. The time for a National Wealth Fund would have been in the 1970s and onward, using North Sea Oil revenues, but the System parties gave most of the benefit to oil companies and foreign speculators.

Again, clueless. Mad. Crazed. Would-be dictator Yvette Cooper, who is closer to her evil dream than ever before, is even more of a police-statist than Starmer. She must be stopped. Starmer must be stopped.

Where is real journalism in this country?

[“British” journalism]

I mean by that, journalism that points out loudly and often that the Starmer-Labour regime was “elected” on the votes of only 33.7% of those who voted, i.e. a third of the actual voters, and only 20% (if that) of all eligible voters: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_Kingdom_general_election#Full_results.

This government has no real popular mandate.

Already, people who have nothing to do with “terrorism” (even taking the term at face value) are being snooped upon and sometimes raided by the police, under (some of them) their new-ish Stasi-lite grand title of “the Anti-Terror Command”. I think that even the satirical singer and entertainer Alison Chabloz was arrested by them one day, several years ago.

Wow. The tide is turning.

Is immigration good for UK economy? Good 31% Bad 40%

Is it positive/negative for public services? Positive 40% Negative 49%

Is it enriching/undermining UK’s cultural life? Enriching 30% Undermining 44%

Is it too high, too low, about right? Too high 66% Too low 4% About right 18%

The fake “Conservatives” had to be binned, and were not binned enough. Fake “Labour’s” turn now. Get rid of the System as a whole.

Terrible. I drove through, or very close to, that area in 2001 (having driven from the UK).
