Back in the mid-1980s, I sometimes enjoyed Spitting Image [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitting_Image]. The sort of real cutting satire that would simply not be allowed today, much of it. In any case, with the sort of events we now see (eg Biden’s funny but also sad descent into the fog), any similar show today would have to fight hard to compete with what is actually happening in front of our eyes.

True, Reagan was not the most-obviously intelligent world leader, but the satirical treatment of him was deliberately “over the top”; whatever his flaws, he was not in the grip of a dementia-related condition plainly visible whenever he spoke in public.

I have not seen the more recently remade Spitting Image but I doubt that it pokes fun at the kind of non-political targets the 1980s original did, e.g. black “rap” performers. I admit that I am guessing, though. The remake is not broadcast on mainstream TV.

The regime of that evil little bastard has only one main chance— to drag NATO into the war. That might mean a slide into a nuclear confrontation before very long.

If the Kiev regime starts to attack Russian cities far from the front line, the response might be that Ukrainian cities in the western part of Ukraine, west of the Dnieper, might be attacked and even destroyed.

So far, Russia has not launched all-out attack on Kiev, partly because of its role in Russian history, but if major Russian cities start to be bombarded, that may change.

I predicted, a couple of years ago, on the blog, that Russia would start to degrade the electrical production and distribution network across Ukraine. That is now being intensified, and is a far more intelligent way of waging war than the more brutal and harsh —and less effective— choice of attacking directly the homes and neighbourhoods of the Ukrainian civilians.

If the Kiev regime starts to badly damage Russian cities away from the front line —especially Moscow, Petersburg and surrounding territories— the Russian response could be devastating enough to bring NATO into the war on some pretext such as Poland suffering damage. Were that to happen, all of us would be but a step away from a Russia-NATO war, which is being pushed by secret circles within the West. Such a war, which would quite likely go nuclear within weeks, would change Europe and the world forever.

Incredible, when you think of the historical hardships of the Irish people. Now, unwanted non-European migrant-invaders demand this, that, and the other…

Forget the “Conservative” Party. Social nationalism can provide the right policies and administration.

Starmer-Labour has surprised even me by its evident ineptitude. We are only one week into what looks like being a disastrous 5 years.

Another example of the undemocratic and quasi-dictatorial nature of the Starmer-Labour government. 411 MPs from whom to choose, yet Starmer is appointing ministers at will from outside the Commons, elevating them to the Lords first.

Sophie Corcoran fails to point out that her comment might also apply, absolutely exactly, to the past 14 years of Conservative Party government.

Reform UK, GE 2024, and the Twitter twits

I was just looking at Twitter/X, which is alive today with Twitter-twits attacking Reform UK and, particularly, belittling Reform for, as it were, pretending to be a serious political party when it “only” has 5 MPs.

As recently as June 2024, the LibDems only had 11 MPs, and had only 8 from 2015 until 2017.

The forerunner of the LibDems, the old Liberal Party, at one time the party of government with hundreds of MPs, fell to having only 6 MPs during the 1950s and again in the early 1970s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)#Electoral_performance.

As for the SNP, from its foundation in the early 1930s and until 1970, about 37 years (!), the SNP had no MPs at all; in 1970, the SNP managed to have elected 1 MP. The MP-cadre of the SNP then varied from 2 to (1974 to 1979) 11 MPs in the years 1974 to 2015, but mostly stuck at 2 or 3 MPs until 1997, when the SNP bloc increased its numbers, this time to 6 MPs. When the FPTP tipping-point was reached in 2015, the SNP mushroomed from 6 MPs to 56 (out of 59 Scottish MPs) overnight: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_National_Party#House_of_Commons.

Apart from those comparisons, the Twitter-twits might like to consider what this blog has been saying for the past week, as have some others (though not enough) even in the msm: Labour did not win by some kind of popular “landslide”, but only in terms of seats conferred by a totally unfit-for-purpose electoral system.

As noted on the blog in past days, at GE 2024 the Conservative Party only got (just over) 1.5x the number/percentage of votes of Reform UK, and even Labour only got (below) 2.5x the Reform UK vote-share.

As put on the blog the other day, out of every 20 eligible voters, only 12 even voted.

In very rough terms, out of that eligible 20 voters, 8 voters abstained, 4 voters voted Lab, 3 voters voted Con, 2 voters voted Reform, 2 voters voted LibDem, and 1 voter voted Green.

Not exactly, and “other parties were available”, but 90.29% of UK voters voted for one of those 5 parties. In England specifically, about 97% of voters voted Lab, Con, Reform, LibDem or Green.

The Twitter-Twits tweeting about Reform UK are mostly Labour supporters who belittle Reform because only 2 out of every 12 voters who voted voted for it, yet only 4 out of 12 (4 out of 20 if you count the abstainers) voted Labour.

I happened to notice one particular Twitter/X account, one “@RobBaron10”, who today (as of 1430) has already managed to put out about 29 Twitter/X “replies”, almost all angrily insulting, and all or almost all completely brainless. I have to say that I am loath to give much credence to someone whose Twitter/X profile says “Retired lecturer in philosophy trying to live a low-impact lifestyle. Despises the far-right and social injustice. Responds in the tone responded to.” Especially when said “retired lecturer in philosophy” thinks that “toe the line” is spelled “tow the line“…

Indeed, looking at the tweets copied below, it may be that “RobBaron10” deserves a place in my updated essay on the links between “antifascists” and/or Zionists, and mental illness: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/

More seriously, if Starmer-Labour MPs and supporters think that the absurd result of GE 2024 gives Starmer the right to impose a “woke”, and also Israel-lobby, tyranny on the people of the UK, he and they are very much mistaken.

Remember those figures— only 4 out of 12 who voted (<34%) voted Labour; only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters (~20%) voted Labour.

“American citizens stand with Russia, not Ukraine. Russia is an orthodox Christian nation, a sovereign nation, doesnโ€™t pander to illegals aliens, was lied to by Ukraine, the U.S and NATO and had forces put on their border, a violation of previous promises made. Ukraine is in bed with the illegal covert bio weapons laboratory facilityโ€™s doing gain of function. Ukraine is the most corruption country in Europe, a money laundering hub, a child trafficking hub and a live organ black market dealing hub. Fuck Ukraine and punk ass Zelensky!“

At present, the forecast for Winchester on St. Swithun’s Day (next Monday) is…wet.

Enemies of the British people.

What an incredible waste of the British people’s tax monies, thrown at the brutal and shambolic regime of the Jewish dictator Zelensky. Meanwhile Britain’s public services are collapsing.

Fake Labour is already a failure as a government.

“Ultimately, this means that defending our truth-based order, free speech and national identity is considered undignified while sacrificing these values in the name of โ€˜equal outcomesโ€™ and โ€˜emotional safetyโ€™ is not.

Of course, Labour is also proposing innocent-sounding legislation on hate speech and racial equality which will further supercharge this woke cultural socialism, shutting down offensive speech while pressuring organizations to discriminate against whites and males to achieve equal outcomes for identity groups.

Will Britain wake up in time to prevent…erosion of our long traditions of free speech, free expression, objective truth, equal treatment and due process? Will future generations be taught to hate the British past and the white men who played an outsized role in creating our national community?

At best, I think we have one or two decades to reverse the march of wokeism before todayโ€™s Zoomers and Millennials, who prioritise โ€˜emotional safetyโ€™ over free speech, become the median voter and the country reaches a point of no return.”

[from a guest essay, published on Matt Goodwin’s blog].

There are of course other ways to resist tyranny than via the so-called “Parliamentary road”.

It will be recalled by older British readers that, in the Dikko case of 1984, an Israeli Jew doctor was directly involved in the MOSSAD operation to kidnap a former Nigerian government minister:

“The Dikko affair was a joint Nigerian–Israeli attempt to kidnap Umaru Dikko, a former Nigerian government minister living in the United Kingdom, in 1984, and secretly transport him back to Nigeria in a diplomatic bag. The kidnapping took place, but the transportation thereof was unsuccessful.

Mossad sources across Europe failed to locate Dikko. However, Mossad Director-General Nahum Admoni decided that Dikko was probably in London, which had become a haven for Nigerian exiles critical of the new regime.

Mossad field officers (katsas), accompanied by Nigerian security service agents led by ex-Nigerian Army Major Mohammed Yusufu, traveled to London. The Nigerian team rented an apartment on Cromwell Road and posed as refugees from the new regime. The Mossad agents rented rooms in hotels catering to tourists from Africa, and posed as anti-apartheid activists.

Working separately, the two teams moved among the Nigerian expat community in London, gradually narrowing their search to West London, to the area around Hyde Park, where many wealthy Nigerian exiles lived. They combed the electoral registers freely available in the area’s town halls, but found no trace of Dikko.

On 30 June 1984, a Mossad agent driving down Queensway, in Bayswater, spotted Dikko. He parked his car and then tailed Dikko on foot to his house in Porchester Terrace. Admoni was immediately informed, and ordered surveillance on the house. From then on, the house was constantly watched, while the Nigerians, using their London high commission as a base, prepared a kidnapping operation.

Meanwhile, Mossad recruited Levi-Arie Shapiro, an Israeli doctor who was a consultant anesthetist and director of the intensive care unit at HaSharon Hospital. He was to fly to London and participate in the operation. Shapiro’s job would be to drug Dikko, and insert an endotracheal tube to keep him from choking on his own vomit while being transported in a crate.”

Pro-migration-invasion “@zoejardiniere” (Zoe Gardner) with her usual pro-mass migration nonsense.

The 100,000 figure refers to invaders (often “illegals”) who are in the UK without having been granted leave to remain.

Still, her tweet featuring the Daily Telegraph story does confirm what I have repeatedly said on the blog would be the Labour policy: “stop the boats” by allowing almost all “asylum” applicants to stay. Those already on UK territory to be “processed” (rubberstamped) and allowed to stay (and so to work, and/or —more likely— claim benefits, apply for social housing, get a State Pension eventually etc). Those in France or elsewhere to be “processed” (rubberstamped) there, with 95% allowed to come to the UK.

This is the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan in action. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan. Of course, it will mean social and economic disaster not far down the line. Political upheaval too.

There is also the point that the “small boats” invasion is but 5% of the total of all migration to the UK. We are talking about a million, give or take, every year. Even if you use the “net migration” figure, meaning excluding those leaving every year (most of them Brits desperately emigrating to Australasia etc), we are still talking about well over half a million a year, maybe three quarters of a million, in bald numbers.

Zoe Gardner talks about “rebuilding lives”, but what is really happening is that lives, British lives, are being destroyed via mass immigration: impossibility of house purchase for most, impossibility even of renting properties without having to share with strangers or wasting most of a person’s pay on rent; crowded railways and roads; crowded State schools; ever-declining health services; a society in which real British people have to share space and life with persons of totally different race and culture.

Of course, those promoting all of that, whether “@ZoeJardiniere” or Yvette Cooper, will not themselves be subject to such cheapening of their lives. They, most of such pro-migration people, live far from those alien madding crowds.

Twitter/X idiocy

I see that one of those silly Twitter/X “news” accounts (with a mere 113 “followers”) has decided to tweet what is displayed below:

“@QUNproductions” is only 4 months late with that “news” (and copied its tweet verbatim from the BBC News tweet from 4 months ago). Why do people set up these ridiculous “news” Twitter/X accounts, copied from real news organizations? Maybe as an alternative to trainspotting or other hobbies; God knows.

For the true picture about my trial and sentence, see below:

“Starmerโ€™s spokesman, too, has already indicated the Labour government will allow more than 100,000 illegal migrants who are already in the country to apply for asylum, thereby, in my view, creating a huge incentive for many more to come.

Labourโ€™s new Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, who just watched Nigel Farageโ€™s Reform party finish second in her own northern seat, has also refused to say the Labour government is committed to Rishi Sunakโ€™s pledge to โ€œstop the boatsโ€.

And the Labour government is already pressing ahead with its proposed โ€˜solutionโ€™ to the illegal migration crisis by establishing a โ€˜new UK Border Security Commandโ€™ to โ€˜tackle the gangsโ€™ โ€”a move which for reasons Iโ€™ve already outlined (see here and here) is unlikely to stop the gangs or the small boat invasion at all. In fact, Iโ€™ve yet to meet a single expert who thinks Labourโ€™s plan on illegal migration will work.“

[Matt Goodwin]

“Furthermore, the very man tipped to be appointed by Labour to tackle the small boats, Neil Basu, has previously said he is “proud to be woke”, compared Suella Braverman to Enoch Powell, has suggested diversity and inclusion are the most important things in policing, spoken positively about the revolutionary group Black Lives Matter (BLM), and openly opposed a โ€˜No Dealโ€™ Brexit.“

[Matt Goodwin]

Neil Basu was one of the most senior policeman, and was always shouting about the “danger” from the so-called “far right” (despite migration invasion happening all around him); he seems, all of the time, to have supported the interests of the non-white population as against those of the real British people. That was certainly my perception.

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

“The era of the cold war is over, the era of the real war may be nearing its start“…

Reminds me of one of the few times I ever played a kind of video game. It was in a South London pub, sometime in the 1980s. I was early for a rendezvous not far away. I went into the pub, bought a beer, and played a game machine; one had to rescue hostages and kill terrorists. Result: all terrorists killed, but about half the hostages also killed.

“Former economic adviser to Israel’s chief of staff, Ram Aminah, said: “Israeli society does not understand the extent of Hezbollah’s power” because it has a large stockpile of missiles, he added.

“He who lives by the sword shall die by the sword” [Matthew 26:52]

Wonder what that idiot-tweeter will say when real social-nationalism arrives…

Incidentally, that Britain Elects poll result, if it is right, would mean a House of Commons with 469 Labour MPs (overall majority 288), 75 LibDems, 56 Con MPs, 15 SNP, 9 Reform UK, 3 Green (etc). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

My view is that it would be better to raise the threshold to at least the ยฃ20,000 level, but increase the tax burden of VAT (overall). True, that would hit poorer people disproportionately, but at the same time would put the choice into their hands, in fact into the hands of all consumers. Basic purchases, such as food, or basic foodstuffs, could be charged out at a lower rate or rates, or zero-rated.

Government needs tax monies in order to fund the functions of government.

Another stunning opinion poll, if accurate.

That poll, by my use of Electoral Calculus, would result in a House of Commons with 454 Labour MPs (overall majority 258), 74 LibDems, 46 Cons, 34 Reform UK, 15 SNP, 4 Green (etc).

That People Polling opinion poll comes very close to my own (I hope, educated) guess about what might be the result of tomorrow’s General Election. Labour as “elected” (by default) dictatorship, LibDems the official but completely toothless Opposition (again only by default), and Reform UK in a good position to capitalize on what will soon be Labour’s total let-down as a government. Oh, and the SNP put back in its box, probably permanently.

As for the Conservative Party, if not totally wiped out on the day, mortally wounded.

I also tend to agree, as I have been blogging recently. “Shy Reform UK voters”, unwilling to share their tendency with pollsters, may add up to something significant, if they vote at all.

That means a House of Commons with 472 Labour MPs (overall majority 294), LibDems 69, Cons 63, SNP 15, Reform 6, Greens 3 (etc).

Once again, LibDems as official Opposition. About half the polls are predicting that the LibDems will get more MPs than the Cons. I imagine that large donors to the Conservative Party will close their pocketbooks soon. A party not in government and not even the main opposition party has little influence.

1700 hrs now. 17 hours before the polls open for real.

“This is Frank and he has had a coffee stand at the top of the steps at Bethnal Green tube for as long as I can remember.

When the new restaurant/coffee shop next door opened along with another high street outlet opening across the street, Frank suddenly found that his license from the council had been revoked and he was chucked off his stand. I believe it was to make way for these new shops to take his regular custom. They didnโ€™t need him in the way of gaining maximum profit… so Frank was gone.

Well the locals were having none of it and a petition started demanding his return. How dare they do this to him. How dare these people smash his business and leave him with nothing.

After a lot of pressure the council backed down and Frank had his licence and pitch returned to him but sadly by that time Frank had sold his equipment to feed his family and try to survive. So the good people of Bethnal Green started crowdfunding and hereโ€™s the result… Frank back in business on his old pitch with brand new equipment and even a little hut now to shelter him from the rain… Brilliant!!

He is truly the happiest man in East London and itโ€™s wonderful to see. It really does show that if we all stick together, stand up to them and just say no… the little guy can win. If youโ€™re in Bethnal Green come and have a coffee with this lovely man.“

A nice story, and an illustration on a small scale of what society could be.

Not an area I know (have been there a couple of times, 30-40 years ago), but if I am ever there, admittedly highly unlikely, I’ll take that coffee.

The Conservative Party misgovernment is more or less at an end now. The next battle will soon start, the battle against the overall “woke” nonsense going to be spearheaded by the Labour Party in government: “trans” nonsense, multikulti nonsense, migration-invasion, Israel/Jewish lobbyism and, encompassing all of those and more, the attack on free speech and freedom of expression.

A reminder that, in international affairs, there is sometimes no “good” option but only “bad” or “worse” options. Sometimes the “least worst” option is also the (relative) “best” at that particular time.

In the example, leaving a terrible tyrant like Saddam Hussein in place might be “bad” (arguably) but deposing him, destroying Iraq, and further destabilizing the region, thus also causing millions to flee westward, might be described as “worse” or even “worst”.

That’s now. Ask again in 2025. Ask again in 2026…

Reform UK

So we are asked to believe that two Reform UK GE 2024 candidates have only just discovered, in the latest case two days before the General Election, that they disagree with their Reform UK colleagues or ex-colleagues?

To me this looks like a set-up, maybe co-ordinated, maybe not.

The latest defector is one Georgie David. I wonder what her provenance might be. She does not look very European in the Sky News photo.

If those two candidates really are against the UK being mainly white Northern European etc, how stupid must they be to have joined with Reform UK in the first place? I might add that the pair are, obviously, though in a minor sense, “traitor” types by nature, to defect like that only days before the “off” (to put it in racing terms).

I doubt that the defections will have any effect on the General Election. In fact, I doubt that the barrage of anti-Reform propaganda being put out by the Conservative Party will do more than perhaps dent a little the Reform UK vote. Even if it did, it would not help the Con Party; any Reform-leaning voters in doubt would not vote Con anyway, but more likely abstain.

Likewise, I happened to be in Qatar for a few days in early 2001. On leaving from the old (now replaced) Doha Airport, I was just being driven to the steps of my plane in a limousine when I noticed that Air Force Two (with Colin Powell on board, as I later discovered, though probably not aboard at that exact moment), was parked right next to it. In retrospect, part of the diplomatic build-up to the invasion of Iraq which occurred 2 years later.

There are always small events, and there is always chatter, before larger events occur. One reason why it is so suspicious that the Israelis claim that the events near Gaza in early October 2023 came as a complete surprise to them.

Rachel Reeves. Labour Friends of Israel. Poses as “competent”. Ran up very large (interest-free) debt on her House of Commons credit card, then refused for years to repay. Freeloader and cheat.

More or less where my educated guess of several months ago ended up, though lighter on SNP seats and heavier on LibDem seats.

The only two where the range is relatively unimportant are Labour, which is (however unmeritoriously) on track for a massive win, it seems, and the LibDems, who seem likely to do modestly well or quite well purely by default, by being the “dustbin” or “tactical vote” choice.

All the rest? Either getting a bloc of significance, or almost nothing. Even the Con result will be very different on 34 MPs (a near wipeout) compared to 99 MPs (very poor but still just about in the game).

Starmer and his cabal are a collective waste of space, but this time next week they will constitute the “politburo” of an “elected” dictatorship.

BBC Question Time is a show so biased, and serving a System agenda, that it would not have been out of place in the Soviet Union. Look at what happened to Nick Griffin about 14 years ago. A complete and rigged lynching.

There should be a massive purge of the cultural sector generally.

Tom Harwood is a horrible little bastard. A typical “knows the price of everything and the value of nothing” careerist.

Yes, they will take “just” 1% of the Green Belt…at first. That covers a year or two of the “need” for new “homes”. A couple of years later, with another 1M+ immigrants to house, guess what? Another 1% (or more) of the Green Belt will be “needed”. And so on…

All that will feed money to housebuilding giants and banks and, down the line, to organizations such as GB News, and to talking heads such as Tom Harwood.

As tweeted there, “Labour” has no, or no effective, plan, because (just like the “Conservatives”) they want more immigration. Evil. Treacherous. Coudenhove-Kalergi puppets.

The weight of concrete, steel and chemicals used, such as acids/ bases, etchants, elemental gases, dopants, photolithographic chemicals etc. are never included. PV technology is more than 7 times more labor intensive than other energy sources. They never include disposing of the worn out panels, recycling copper wiring etc. after solar farms have reached end of life. So when they tell you solar makes back the energy used to build and maintain them in X amount of time, they are actually lying to you.”

Interesting, nicht wahr, that all these supposed imperative “needs”, such as concreting over the English countryside to provide “homes” (mostly for migrant-invaders), or creating massive solar farms in the countryside or, indeed, creating fake “vaccines” and the “need” for this, that, or the other anti-“pandemic” equipment and services, always seem to mean massive profit for greedy landowners, farmers, giant companies, the mass media organizations etc?

GE 2024 may be nailed on for Labour, but there is everything still to play for in respect of Reform UK; also, in terms of really wiping out (or not) the totally useless “Conservative” Party. Still 4 days or so to go before the campaign is at an end. About a fifth of eligible voters are still unsure whether to bother voting, and/or where to place their cross.

If Reform UK only gets about 15% or 16% across the board, then that will be underwhelming, though it should sink the Conservative Party. In that event, Reform would probably get only one or two MPs. If, on the other hand, Reform can get about 23%, then it might end up with 50+ MPs, and the map of British politics will have been irrevocably changed.

James Whale [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Whale_(radio_presenter)] and his co-host (who he?) are just two Israel-lobby monkeys-on-sticks at the bad-joke Talk Radio/Talk TV, which hardly anyone sees or hears.

Talk TV, one of the Murdoch assets, was one of the few msm outlets to report on my free speech trial sentencing hearing. It managed to get the sentence completely wrong, stating that I had been “jailed“!

That interviewee was right. Talk TV/Talk Radio are indeed “clowns“.

The mass media are under (((control))), just as the entire political system is monitored and controlled. Once even a mild-ish small-c conservative party such as Reform UK starts to become popular with the masses, the control starts to become more heavy-handed. It is pretty blatant.

What other party could do this in the Britain of 2024? Brexit Party did it, on a smaller scale, but Farage stabbed it in the back. This time, he obviously plans to take it to the end (Election Day).

Like the end of the 1934 Nuremberg rally, but without a proper social-national party, movement, ideology, or leader.

Still, if it destroys at least half of the “two main parties” scam, and moves the “Overton Window” a bit (or a lot), I am relatively happy…

Incidentally, if you do not see the (superficial) parallel to 1934 Nuremberg, see the video below [at/from 1hr 30 mins]

Well, it is a start…

“With the IFS questioning how Labour and the Tories are going to fund their manifesto pledges, the public are similarly sceptical: % who think each party’s promises are…

Affordable / Unaffordable Con promises: 14% / 57% Lab promises: 22% / 47%

Realistic / Unrealistic Con promises: 14% / 62% Lab promises: 25% / 47%

Good for Britain / Bad for Britain Con promises: 22%/ 52% Lab promises: 37% / 35%.”

Incredibly, the Cons are seen as worse on all those questions.

This Government is toast. Toast.

Most people realize that “democracy” is largely a sham.

“In 2015 I met this Palestinian farmer, Abdel-Majeed, on the West Bank. Israeli settlers were attacking him and stealing his land, and I thought the situation was about as bad as it could get. No, it has gotten much worse.

I revisited him last week, during a week-long trip through Israel and the West Bank, and I found that settlers have burned his cars and destroyed his tractor. They have cut down his olive trees and set his sheep shed on fire. They tried to break into his house when his granddaughter was home. Now his wife is arguing that they should give up their home, for fear of being burned alive by settlers.

This is life on the West Bank today. It doesn’t get as much attention as Gaza, but the situation is desperate. And the US is largely AWOL. I know it feels a long way away, but this is central to the Middle East crisis and is one reason I fear the crisis will get worse.

Here’s my report: https://nyti.ms/3ROOfNs“

Even some Jews think the actions of the Jewish settlers are abominable.

America— a colossus on legs of straw. A demented President, and a total idiot-woman as vice-President…

Clacton and Reform UK

The System is now getting very worried about the level of support being shown even for Reform UK, a basically small-c conservative-type party. The anti-Reform UK rhetoric is now close to that displayed in the past against more social-national parties such as the BNP and, further back still, the National Front.

The System thinking must be, “if even Reform UK can be so disruptive, how more so would be a credible and genuinely social-national party?“

That anti-Reform UK propaganda is broadcast as Reform UK reaches heights of popular support few thought that it would or could reach.

Some polls are putting Reform UK as high as 20%, and all are putting it well above 15%, the average now being around 17%.

Meanwhile, support for the Conservative Party has dropped to as low as 18%, and may go even lower. I have just yesterday heard admittedly anecdotal evidence that, in my own local area (in coastal Hampshire, and one of the most heavily-Con in England), lifelong Con voters are planning to vote anywhere other than Con or Labour. Many, perhaps most (?), are switching to Reform UK, and some to the LibDems.

I was just looking at my blog from about 8 or 9 months ago. I thought then that Reform UK would get a nationwide popular vote of at least 15% and, at the outside, 20%. Seems that I was right (so far).

Estimates of the number of MPs Reform UK might have by 5 July 2024, i.e. once the votes are counted, range from 1 or 2 to as many as 22. A few Reform UK optimists are doubling or even tripling that. It seems very open, with less than a week to go.

I doubt whether the Channel 4 undercover silliness will change the minds of many people planning to vote Reform UK, as witness the tweets below:

In any case, Channel 4 News is only seen by a small minority of people. Only about 4.5% of the viewing public even watch Channel 4 overall, so maybe 1% or 2% (?): https://deadline.com/2023/06/channel-4-woes-deepen-ratings-historic-low-1235417804/; https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12199071/Panic-Channel-4-viewing-figures-plummet-historic-low.html.

I doubt that more than a few hundred of the voters of Clacton will have even seen the “expose”. In any case, the main person shown was merely a volunteer. It may even be that some people will be more inclined to vote for Reform after having seen the Channel 4 piece. You never know.

There is also the point that postal voting has already taken place. Many of the older and/or disabled British voters, as at Clacton, will by now have voted.

Farage seems nailed-on to win at Clacton, as far as I can see. The Conservative Party candidate has not even been seen (by me anyway) on TV or online, while the young African standing as Labour MP has apparently been redeployed to help another Labour candidate, in the West Midlands, and has thus left the field of battle at Clacton.

I can only suppose that Starmer decided that only the Con candidate had any chance of beating Farage, having scored 72.3% in 2019, so scaled back the Labour effort at Clacton to zero for nakedly tactical reasons.

Also, the fact that Labour deliberately chose an African for its candidate at Clacton, of all places, would be likely to prompt a surge in support for Reform UK. Anyway, he’s gone elsewhere, and will probably not be seen at Clacton until the count on Election Night. I still think that he might lose his deposit.

As blogged previously, while I am not a Reform UK supporter, as such, its existence moves the “Overton Window” a bit, at the very least, and will help to break down the “two main parties” scam.

The public’s view of the mostly System politicians is not favourable. Even Starmer, on the crest of his “popularity by default”, is only viewed favourably by just over a third of voters.

Look at Sunak. Only 19%, the same as the Conservative Party. I begin to wonder whether previously undecided voters will actually start to pile in against the Conservative Party now, or at the last minute, thus reducing the Conservative vote to somewhere below that 19%, maybe as low as 16%. We shall know in 6 days’ time.

I should say “80% that’s broken“, not “everything“. Otherwise, I agree.

As Hitler said, “dirty democratic politicians“…[Mein Kampf].

See also: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/10/03/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-esther-mcvey-story/.

The African will probably get about 4% of the vote, and lose his deposit.

This is incredible. It does not necessarily mean that the Channel 4 “expose” was a fix, but it certainly raises questions.

How did Channel 4 News come to fasten upon that particular person for its undercover filming?

My view: both main System parties should be eliminated.

Gavin Barwell really is an utterly stupid person, yet there he sits in the House of Lords, getting nearly ยฃ400 a day (taxfree) any (sitting) day on which he chooses to turn up for 30 minutes and have his name ticked off… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavin_Barwell.

Yes. If all Con-leaning or anti-Lab-leaning voters were to vote Reform UK, Reform UK could just about win at Dover; even then it might be very close. One thing is for sure— the Con candidate cannot win.

So Giles Watling is still alive… I had seen and heard nothing from the retired actor since the Clacton campaign started. I assumed that he had fallen into his soup and drowned at the Garrick Club.

Watling has nothing in common with most Clacton voters. Hopeless.

The Jew Zelensky thinks that there can be a “peace summit” without Russia’s participation (unless Russia were to effectively surrender). He’s a con-man who has stolen billions.

I tend to agree, up to a point, with that last tweeter. Yes, the Cons are doomed, but look at what the Labour Party now is! A mixture of Blair-Brown-style fake communitarian rhetoric, “woke” craziness, “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) partisanship, and pro-Israel-ism, combined with pro-Jewish lobby repression of free speech and, in terms of domestic policy, almost indistinguishable in reality from the policies of the Conservative Party.

Incidentally, it is Bicester and Woodstock, a new constituency, not just Woodstock. That may explain the close polling.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicester_and_Woodstock_(UK_Parliament_constituency).

Even Reform UK has more support among the under-30s in the UK, especially in England, than many suppose. A real social-national party might be able to capture far more hearts and minds.

This really is stunning. If accurate, it may mean a House of Commons with 483 Labour MPs (overall majority 316), 73 LibDems, 27 Reform UK, and only 22 Con Party MPs (SNP 18, Green 4 etc). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

It would mean the LibDems as official Opposition, and Reform UK with several more MPs (27 in toto) than the rump of the old Conservative Party (22), which would not be the Opposition, not even third party, but a poor fourth. Finished. Washed-up.

I have yet to meet, in the past month or even longer, even one person who expresses an intention to vote Con. There may be some people I meet who intend to vote Con without my knowing it, of course; I meet relatively few people, and rarely talk directly about politics with most of those that I do meet. All the same…

In fact, and by my use of Electoral Calculus, it may be that, were Reform UK to poll at 24%, only 3 points higher than in this latest poll, Reform could edge the LibDems out of second place, which would mean Reform UK as the official Opposition, and Farage as Leader of the Opposition! Were that to happen, I should have to eat my words of a year or two ago (dismissing him as not such an effective politician despite his oratorical and mass media skills).

We shall soon know.

“Brutal” is the word. Whatever one may think of Trump and his overall fitness for office, it is clear that Biden should now go into retirement.

The world has rarely if ever been in such multiform peril. The state with, by far, the greatest military-destructive power on Earth, is a “colossus on legs of straw”, and cannot, at this time, be commanded, even notionally, by someone not in command of his own faculties.

From the newspapers

https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/24416228.poole-labour-candidate-calls-others-denounce-hate-campaign/

“The Labour parliamentary candidate for Poole, Neil Duncan-Jordan, said he and others have been targeted with โ€™disgusting and disrespectfulโ€™ comments.

He said he had been called a โ€˜white traitorโ€™ and told that โ€˜Adolf Hitler had the right ideaโ€™.

Mr Duncan-Jordan has called on his counterparts in the election to distance themselves from antisemitism, racism and hate crime following a number of incidents he and his supporters have faced.

Mr Duncan-Jordan said: โ€œIn the last few days there have been three separate incidents that have caused me concern. Iโ€™ve been called a โ€˜white traitorโ€™, one of my supporters was spat at and I was told that โ€œAdolf Hitler had the right idea.โ€

โ€œI think itโ€™s important that all candidates in this election come out clearly and say that antisemitism, racism and fascist views have absolutely no place in modern Britain.

โ€œSpitting at someone because you donโ€™t like their political views is disgusting and disrespectful. We cannot allow this kind of behaviour to become the acceptable norm.โ€

The candidate has reported the incidents to the police.“

[Bournemouth Echo]

Well, while I would never condone spitting at (or for that matter, throwing milkshakes over) people (as a Labour supporter did to Farage recently), if a candidate wants to knock on people’s doors to engage them in political debate, he must expect some of his “victims” to cut up rough, bearing in mind what the System parties have been doing to this country.

“Rishi Sunak‘s chief of staff has been interviewed as a witness by the gambling regulator as part of the row over alleged bets on the timing of the general election, it has emerged.

Liam Booth-Smith is reported to have spoken to the Gambling Commission last week to help the watchdog understand who may have known when polling day would be.

Can you believe it, even today, as the UK goes into a tailspin? The Chief of Staff of the UK Prime Minister— and look at the bastard!

Booth-Smith was born in 1987[2] in Stoke on Trent and was raised by a single mother.[3] He read politics and social policy at Loughborough University. Booth-Smith was appointed as Downing Street Chief of Staff in October 2022 after Rishi Sunak‘s accession as prime minister. He succeeded Mark Fullbrook.

In 2023 the New Statesman named him as the ninth most powerful figure in British Right-Wing Politics.”

In the 1970s, Britain still had many avenues open to it. Now, it is as if (?) we are painted into a corner, with almost nowhere to turn.

2024-2029…perhaps in the next few years there will, at long last, emerge the popular social-national movement that can sweep all before it.

When I stayed for three weeks with a French couple, in Paris, in 1971 (at age 14), I was taken once by car through an area my host referred to as the “quartier arabe“. Now it seems that much of Paris is the “quartier africaine“…

An idealized but not really untruthful view of how parts of England were in the 1950s, or even early 1960s, if you forget the 1930s-style bus in the background.

Incidentally, I was watching a “true crime” documentary about a series of appalling murders carried out by some crazed half-caste in the mid-1980s, the “Stockwell Strangler” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Erskine], who, incidentally, is still detained in a mental hospital.

What struck me as much as anything is how smart the uniformed police still looked back then; one forgets. No beards, no stubble, no tattoos, and wearing shirts and ties and neat uniforms. What a contrast to the often untidy-looking rabble they (especially in London?) are today, with their beards and tattoos.

Sometimes, as I navigate along the potholed and badly-patched highways in the area where I live (supposedly one of the most affluent in England), thinking about things, I think that this country is so ****** that only some kind of very radical, indeed revolutionary, change will be able to give it a decent future.

Needless to say, my views on the current migration-invasion are not unalike to those of Suella Braverman, but I do not need some Mauritian Indian bas-class import to tell me what to think. Anyway, she is married to a Jewish Zionist, and supports Israel to the hilt, so nein, danke!

“For Ukrainian troops, a difficult situation has developed on the battlefield, said the head of intelligence of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense Kirill Budanov in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer. This is how he answered the journalistโ€™s question whether the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be able to stop the advance of Russian troops.”

Will truth now start to break out in the newsrooms of the Western msm?

Starmer-Labour will stop the smaller influx, the “small boats” influx, to a large extent, by simply rubberstamping 90% or more of the applications before they even get here, doing it in France, after which the invaders will simply get onto a ferry in Calais and will be here 2-3 hours later.

Both System parties are complicit, and are facilitating the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

I do not think that I can be accused of being overly pro-Arab, let alone pro-Islamist, and I might be induced to agree that the attack on Israel in October 2023 should not have happened (for the good of all sides), but what Israel has done since then has been utterly abhorrent, and it continues to do the same or similar.

My blog, my freedom of expression

Many readers will be aware that I was put on trial in November 2023 for having supposedly published 5 “grossly offensive” items on this blog; 5 items within 5 pages (5 days’ posts). 5 blog posts out of, at the time, about 1,700. I was sentenced in March 2024.

The background of that is known to some but not all readers. I therefore offer the following blog pages as explanation (obviously, I cannot republish or link to the 5 blog posts which were determined by the Court to have been, or to have contained material, “grossly offensive“, so here are 5 others).

When I was a victim of a malicious Zionist complaint…
The Slide of the English Bar and UK Society Continues and Accelerates
Diary Blog, 15 January 2022, including an outline of the failure of the latest Jew-Zionist attempt to prosecute me
Diary Blog, 16 March 2024, including an account of my recent free speech trial and sentencing
Diary Blog, 17 March 2024, including the aftermath of my sentencing hearing

I should add that, while 5 blog posts were determined, in the magistrates’ court, to have contained “grossly offensive” material (in fact, in my opinion, largely innocuous comments and cartoons), the material in question was tiny in amount, about 2% of each blog post, if that. In fact, only a few sentences allegedly written by me were specifically mentioned in the judgment.

As previously mentioned on the blog, I am perforce far more diplomatic now on the blog than I was a few years ago, but how sad it is that this country that, arguably more than any other bar the USA, championed free speech for so long, should fall victim to this kind of sub-“Stasi“, poundshop KGB-ism, with the Clown Prosecution Service and police falling over themselves to placate the Israel lobby.

Election thoughts

Labour leader Keir Flip-flop (Starmer) is the personification of the Norman Wisdom character, the clueless teaboy or whatever, who suddenly wins the lottery (or, in those 1950s days, the football pools). Starmer is about to become an “elected” dictator, despite most people despising, disliking or distrusting him.

Look, though, at what the Conservative Party now is. We are told that, if they survive the election, the leading contenders for the leadership position will probably be Kemi Badenoch (Nigerian), Priti Patel (East African Asian, and Israeli agent), James Cleverly (half-caste West Indian/British), and Suella Braverman (Mauritian Indian). All members of Conservative Friends of Israel, too.

Need one even comment?

[Update, 1 December 2024: Erratum— James Cleverly’s father was African, not (as I said, mistakenly) West Indian].

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/jun/22/red-wall-tory-support-boris-johnson-south-yorkshire-labour

We are told, also, that the polls say that 20% of eligible voters have not even decided whether they will vote at all, and are also undecided as to which way they might cast their votes if they do vote. Do we take it that many of those will simply abstain? Will they vote simply as protest? Uncertain.

It could just be that those “undecideds” will vote, will want to vote as protest, and so will mostly vote Reform UK. Were that to happen, it really would put the cat among the pigeons.

The fact is that the Conservatives are in deep trouble anyway, that the mere existence of Reform UK has deepened that existing trouble, and that, even at a nationwide 15%-19% (as per recent polls), Reform UK, while perhaps only getting a few seats, would spell doom for the Conservative Party. Which is why the msm is now going crazy trying to demonize Farage and his latest party.

If Reform UK actually scores above 20%, then game on. If the existing ~18% is boosted by another 5 or 10 points, then UK politics will have received a meteorite hit, and will never be the same again. Were Reform UK to get 28% of the national vote, that might mean 80-90 Commons seats, and Reform UK would be the official Opposition.

That may seem impossible or crazy, and it may not happen, but the exciting thing is that it actually could happen. You cannot compare Reform UK in 2024 to Brexit Party in 2019, or UKIP in 2015.

This time, the Cons are going to go down really badly. More importantly, there is a perception this time that to vote Reform UK is not a mere protest vote, but a protest vote that really could accomplish something concrete— the utter destruction of the Conservative Party for a start.

I do not know whether Reform UK will manage to get beyond its present 15%-19% range, and/or get as high as 28%, but it just might.

Britain has not had anything approaching such a statesman for a very very long time.

Not that I approve of everything Putin has done within Russia itself, and Russian society still does not have an ideology capable of consigning to the past Western finance-capitalism, the mainly Jewish (but also Russian-criminal) “bandit capitalism” of the past 30+ years, and the former harsh Marxist-Leninist ethos, out of which the “bandit capitalism” emerged.

Still, as a transitional but very significant political power-holder, Putin must be supported as far as necessary, as a bulwark against various poisonous and contending elements in the world.

“Fewer“, not “less“!

True all the same.

The policy is working so well as a deterrent that, even in the past couple of days, about 2,000 more migrant-invaders have entered the UK via the English Channel, ferried in by the RNLI and Border Farce.

All the System parties talk about “smuggling gangs”, but the smugglers could, in principle, be dealt with easily enough by special forces undercover. Dealt with. Just dealt with. The necessity is to deter or stop the migrant-invaders themselves, to close down the “small boats” cross-Channel route, and to protect both our borders and the future of our people.

Not a very impressive candidate anyway: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Williams_(British_politician). 39 years old. His only non-political job was as a director of Cardiff Bus, a municipal bus service company owned by Cardiff Council; Williams was a councillor and on the relevant Council committee at the time. What a boondoggle.

Williams has been an MP since 2015, but lost his previous seat to Labour in 2017 and was then elected for another constituency in 2019. That constituency has now been abolished, and redrawn into the new constituency of  Montgomeryshire and Glyndลตr.

On the previous boundaries, the area was quite solidly LibDem until 2010, when the egregious Lembit Opik managed to ruin his political career by making plainly freeloading expenses claims and by playing around with young Romanian pop singers called the Cheeky Girls: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lembit_%C3%96pik.

While one might have expected Williams to continue the run of Conservative Party successes in the now-redrawn seat, the plunging popularity of the party, combined with Williams having tried to make an illicit profit by betting on the election date while obviously having inside information, may make him unelectable. We shall see.

The new constituency is being contested by Con, Lab, LibDem, Green, Plaid Cymru and, perhaps most interestingly, Reform UK.

Obviously, I have no idea how Reform UK will perform, and it may be that the LibDems have the best chance of getting rid of Williams, but if (a big if, as they say), Reform were to take half of the otherwise Con vote, then either Reform or the LibDems might succeed.

On the wider point, had something like this betting scandal occurred in, say, 1994, or 1984, let alone 1974 or 1964, the person implicated would have been expected to step down either as candidate or, later, as MP (if re-elected). The slide in integrity and honour in British politics is palpable. The bastard seems to be intent on riding it out, and hoping to get away with it.

Ha ha! Anna Soubry, the notorious former “MP for Plymouth and Angostura” (she briefly threatened me online with a libel suit when I first tweeted that humorous description of her, many years ago, the silly creature), talks about Farage being “a gob shite“!

I can well understand why Anna Soubry has no mirrors around her, but she ought to take a good look at herself some time…

Ha. Yes, that is what is happening. A million migrant-invaders a year? Putin’s fault. Housing crisis? Putin’s fault. Nothing working properly any more in the UK? Putin’s fault.

If the “occupied” UK TV, radio, and newspapers disappeared tomorrow, the air would be cleaner.

Even 8 years ago, I was saying that “Brexit is more than Brexit“. Now, I say that people voting Reform UK are doing so for reasons far beyond, far far wider, than a limited wish to have Farage and his party get a few MPs.

Apocalyptic. God help anyone under that.

Our animal friends.

At what point will “they” have had enough blood?

Starmer-Labour is a Labour Friends of Israel “elected” dictatorship about to happen. Basically, Blairism/Brownism, but without the hope and without any new initiatives.

I wonder how many Labour-leaning voters will really vote Con in an attempt to sabotage Farage? Perhaps some will vote Reform in order to make sure the Con candidate is not re-elected. Open question.

If the “vote Con to stop Reform” idea were seen to be building, it might be that many Labour-leaning voters would actually prefer to vote for Farage to make sure that the Con candidate is not re-elected.

For me, as previously blogged, and while I have no time for “libertarianism” or pro-Israelism, I hope that Reform UK does well for two reasons: 1. to crush the Conservative Party; 2. to move the “Overton Window” in society and the body politic.

I blogged about that useless African freeloader yesterday. The fact is that Labour, especially with such a candidate, has no chance at all at Clacton. Any Clacton voters who seriously want rid of the Conservative Party and its Clacton candidate have to either vote Reform UK or stay home.

Literary note

Just saw this about the novelist John Fowles, who died nearly twenty years ago:

“Following Fowles’ death in 2005, his unpublished diaries from 1965 to 1990 were revealed to contain racist and homophobic statements, with particular ire towards Jewish people.[26] He described rare book dealer Rick Gekoski as “Too Jewish for English tastes… bending to the way of the wind, or the business and money pressure”, and wrote a consciously antisemitic poem about publishers Tom Maschler and Roger Straus.[27]“

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Maschler; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Williams_Straus_Jr.; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Gekoski].

I have sometimes wondered why one rarely now hears Fowles’ name, despite his having been a major British literary figure. (((There))) is the reason. Fowles has become an “unperson”…

Bill Cash. Extraordinarily delusional. In fact, he personifies how totally out of touch with anything resembling reality many Conservative Party MPs or ex-MPs have become. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Cash.

Cash himself stepped down as MP earlier this year, and is now retired, aged 84. His former constituency has been abolished.

“8,790” so far…possibly 40,000+ by the end of 2024. However, that figure will be dwarfed by the numbers of “legal” migrant-invaders, which number will probably exceed a million.

Steve Laws is the English Democrats candidate for Dover and Deal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dover_and_Deal_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

In fact, I now notice that that figure of 8,790 was first tweeted about 6 weeks ago; I just saw a more up-to-date figure—over 10,000 already this year.

[Update, 11 July 2024: Steve Laws, unfortunately, did not have success at GE 2024: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dover_and_Deal_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s;

I believe I read somewhere that the “usual suspects” have been contriving legal cases against Steve Laws, using the supine police and “Clown” Prosecution Service].

Some politicians become an “ism”, while others do not. It is too early to speak of “Faragism”; my instinct is that if “Faragism” does become a thing, it will be a transitory phenomenon, as was Poujadism [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Poujade].

“In February 2010, New York Times commentator Robert Zaretsky compared the American Tea Party movement with Poujadism.[13]

In a May 2016 editorial, New York Times columnist Ross Douthat identified Donald Trump as a Poujadist.[14]

British historian Timothy Garton Ash used Poujade in discussing the British vote to leave the European Union. In a piece published in The Guardian in June 2016, he wrote about some of those who voted for Brexit, saying that:

It is a mistake to disqualify such people as racist. Their concerns are widespread, genuine and not to be dismissed. Populist xenophobes such as Nigel Farage exploit these emotions, linking them to subterranean English nationalism and talking, as he did in the moment of victory, of the triumph of “real people, ordinary people, decent people”. This is the language of Orwell hijacked for the purposes of a Poujade.[15]“

[Wikipedia]

The problem with “Faragism”, as with Poujadism, the Tea Party, the Yellow Vests, indeed “Trumpism”, is that, without a real ideology, nothing concrete or lasting can be achieved. Compare that to Marxism-Leninism or, even more so, arguably, National Socialism, which latter transcended its temporary 1920s and 1930s roots as “Hitlerism”, and still evolves.

Ideally, this would be when social nationalism could rise up.

It has not yet done so, partly because (over the past 20 years) “controlled opposition” parties (UKIP, Brexit Party, Reform UK), and peripheral scribblers have blunted the swords, but also partly because the British people, though suffering, are not, most of them, suffering enough to really be compelled to stand their ground and then advance to the future as a force to be reckoned with.

When that will happen is uncertain, but the “Overton Window” is already moving.

This is what happens when the State regulatory role is performed only pro forma, as a tick-box exercise. This became a total cancer under the Blair-Brown governments of 1997-2010; the spending cuts since 2010 have worsened that very bad situation (not only in the sector in the news tonight— across the board). Schools, prisons, the whole legal system, the court system, the probation system, academia generally. You name it.

Khrushchev, in his memoirs, said that (putting it in the language of 2024) an office-bod or bureaucrat type of person (he was thinking of Malenkov) was the very last type who should ever be given power.

Starmer is exactly that type. A sterile black-letter legal type, beholden to the UK Jewish lobby and Israel lobby; probably a freemason too. He will soon be an “elected” dictator by default, purely because the “Conservative” misgovernment is simply incapable of governing at all.

Starmer and Labour, on their own merits, would struggle to get elected. That they are now superficially popular by default is just absurd. They are not at all popular, but there is nothing in their way now. Less than two and a half weeks to go before Election Day, and the Conservative Party will be lucky to retain 50 MPs, in my opinion (which has been my opinion on the blog for months). (The “experts” are still saying 100-200).

Starmer is about to institute a kind of tyranny, for the benefit of transnational finance-capitalism and, of course, (((the usual))) “cosmopolitan” interests.
