In the early 1940s, Jewish scientists created the atom bomb, with the idea of using it in Europe, especially on German cities. There was a possibility, theoretically, that the first test detonation would set Earth’s atmosphere on fire. They took the risk because to them, as Jews, killing the world’s only National Socialist state took priority over the survival of all life on Earth. See the kind of thinking they had? Zelensky is no different.

To me, provisionally, this Chernobyl attack looks very much like a “false flag”, trying to stop Trump and/or the EU leaders talking to Putin.

The fact is that Zelensky is not really a player . Without American or EU arms, ammunition, money, and other aid, “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) cannot continue to prosecute this drawn-out and agonizing war. Cut off the supply, and Zelensky’s regime implodes within days, certainly within weeks. He is a man of straw.

Does anyone really watch BBC Question Time these days? I would guess a small tranche of the population, 55+ or 65+ in years, mostly. People who fail to see that it is just a rigged system propaganda show.

Looking at tweets, seems that one panellist was ignorant Labour-label expenses cheat Jacqui Smith [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqui_Smith], who is basically a fraudster (she even claimed on her expenses for her husband’s TV porn-watching!) A total fraud. Member of Labour Friends of Israel, of course. Also, entirely without any intelligent or cultural mentality of any use. Chucked out of Parliament by the voters, only to be given a fake title of “Baroness” and put into the discredited “House of Lords”.

Oh, and the Jew scribbler George Monbiot was yet another System-approved guest last night, it seems, droning on about “appeasement” and saying that “Ukraine” (the Jewish/Zionist regime in Kiev) should be given “whatever it wants“.

Fiona Bruce, presenter, had asked about how Ukraine might “defeat Russia“. Of course Monbiot could not answer, and just waffled, because “Ukraine” cannot “defeat Russia“, a proper state (unlike “Ukraine), and with a population several times that of Ukraine, with a proper army, its own supplies of arms, ammunition, money, food, oil and gas etc, and a territory many times that of Ukraine (even on the pre-2014 borders).

The way things are going, Israel may be living on borrowed time. If Iran develops nuclear warheads, half the Jews in the world (those in Israel/Occupied Palestine) may go up in smoke.

Starmer is either a political idiot (maybe an idiot anyway, for all his “KC” and former “DPP” ranks…), or a puppet of “the usual suspects”; maybe both. I think both, really.

Imagine betting other people’s, the British people’s, money and future on a one-trick-pony like Zelensky, who has already lost.

…and who could blame them? A fake “state” headed by a drug-fuelled Jew-Zionist former comedian who is, at best, a loose cannon.

Is it only now that Zelensky realized that “Ukraine” was never going to join NATO? Yet stupid Starmer still pretends that the contrary is the case…

I think that that says more about Starmer’s lack of geopolitical grasp than anything. There again, Starmer is just an Israel-lobby puppet anyway.

Entry of a candidate-state into NATO (under its own rules) has to be approved by all NATO member-states. Several are now against even pretending that “Ukraine” can join or will join. The USA is the most important but others too. Hungary, Germany (though the Germans may pretend otherwise); I think a few others as well.

The pretence seems to be “not this year”, and not next year; maybe in or around 2030. Maybe. Maybe not. I think never. The fake “Ukraine” state may not even exist by 2030, or even 2026.

How long can NATO even exist? 2028? Were the USA to pull out of NATO, about two-thirds of its overall funding (funding including the funding of national forces and their arms and armament etc) would disappear.

Likewise, were the USA to take over Greenland (thus provoking Denmark, a full NATO member), the alliance would probably fall to pieces one way or the other.

It even occurs to me that Trump’s recent statements about taking over both Greenland (territory of Denmark) and Canada (a full NATO member) were actually designed to weaken NATO. I have no doubt that Putin and his circle welcomed (secretly) Trump’s outbursts. Is that too “conspiracy theory”? Maybe. Unsure.

Many MPs have lied on their CVs. Not just overblown their academic and work backgrounds, but lied outright. Iain Dunce “Duncan Smith” is but one. Rachel Reeves is far from being the only defaulter. She is, however, also egregiously hopeless at her job, which is even more relevant. Incidentally, yet another Labour Friends of Israel member.

Jacqui Smith. Expenses cheat. Labour Friends of Israel. Anti-free speech.

Apparently, the unpleasant Alan Milburn [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Milburn] is also being brought back into government by Starmer.

We can already see the road being taken by the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship. Cabinet members who are not even MPs (which has always happened, but not I think to this extent), and a likelihood of policies imposed with little or no consultation.

I covered the appalling Jess Phillips on yesterday’s blog, and have also done so in years past (see, for example, https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/07/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-jess-phillips-story/).

“A female Deliveroo rider who bit a customer’s thumb off in an argument over pizza has escaped jail.

[defendant]

Jeniffer Rocha caused Stephen Jenkinson a ‘permanent, irreversible injury’ while delivering him a Pizza Express order in a ‘reckless’ attack, a court heard.

Mr Jenkinson, 36, and Rocha, 35, had a brief argument over a delivery code before the Brazilian Deliveroo rider bit his thumb off.

Rocha, a married mother of two who was making deliveries on her moped as a replacement rider for her husband, admitted grievous bodily harm in March on the eve of her trial.

On Friday, at Salisbury Crown Court, Wilts, she walked free from court as she was handed a 16 month prison sentence, suspended for 18 months, by a judge who accused her of ‘excessive self defence‘.”

Peter Hitchens is a confirmed political spectator, and has certain fixed views, one of which seems to be a huge over-valuation of the importance of voting every 4-5 years. He thinks that MPs are terrified of their voters voting them out. No, because they have incentives to vote according to other motivations, such as lobby money, outside “work” as “consultants”, party discipline (careerism), possibility of a paid “peerage” down the line etc.

Another Hitchens characteristic is that he is very fixated on the “two main parties” set-up which has dominated British politics (with LibDem and SNP distractions) since the Second World War and to a large extent since the First World War.

Hitchens seems to think that it was wrong for the public to turn to Reform UK, and that it would have been better to have had a Labour government with a much smaller majority.

I disagree. That would change nothing, and the UK needs to change (though not in the Starmer-Labour way). Hitchens seems to support a different kind of Conservative Party, if possible, but you cannot put new wine into old bottles.

Regular readers will know that I have little time for Farage, let alone Tice etc. They are not social-national. However, their Reform UK project has moved the “Overton Window”, and has started to break up the rigged political system that has been in place all of my life.

Hitchens is right in saying, as he does, that Reform UK is just Farage, but you could have said that about, say, on a higher and more significant political level, Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP.

As Rudolf Hess said, famously, at Nuremberg in 1934, “Die Partei ist Hitler, aber Hitler ist Deutschland wie Deutschland Hitler ist!” [see https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6uajey at 1:43:00].

For me, Reform UK is but one means to an end, not the final destination.

I wrote an assessment of Hitchens some years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/19/peter-hitchens-and-his-views/.

Does Hitchens really imagine that Starmer-Labour is or will be worse than (or even very different from) the “Conservative” governments of the past 14 years?

“In his 1991 book Geschichtsdenken im 20. Jahrhundert (Historical Thinking in the 20th Century), Nolte asserted that the 20th century had produced three “extraordinary states”, namely Germany, the Soviet Union, and Israel. He claimed that all three were “abnormal once”, but whereas the Soviet Union and Germany were now “normal” states, Israel was still “abnormal” and, in Nolte’s view, in danger of becoming a fascist state that might commit genocide against the Palestinians.”

Good grief. What a list! Only one or two are even European. Suella Braverman of Indian origins; James Cleverly of mixed African and English origins; Kemi Badenoch, Nigerian; Priti Patel, East African Indian origin; Tom Tugendhat, quarter-Jewish; Robert Jenrick, possibly fully-English (uncertain); Victoria Atkins.

So leaving aside the obviously non-Europeans, that leaves only Victoria Atkins [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Atkins], Jenrick [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Jenrick] and Tugendhat [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Tugendhat].

Speaking personally, if I were in any case a Conservative, I should find Jenrick unacceptable by reason of his seeming (?) corruption, his Jewish personal links (not just his wife, his social circle, which seems to consist largely of Jewish business sharks), and his poor judgment in office.

Tugendhat? Apart from his part-Jewish origins, he is very very keen on support for Israel and the Kiev regime. Also, I am always suspicious when someone, especially from a privileged background (his father was a High Court judge), has a large hole in his or her CV.

Tugendhat seems to have graduated in or about 1994, then spent a year (?) getting a Master’s degree in Islamic studies. After that, he spent a brief time as a journalist on an English-language newspaper in Beirut.

We next hear of Tugendhat about 6-7 years later, in 2003, when he is gazetted as a Territorial Army officer (after a month or two, joining the Intelligence Corps); as of 2013, Lt.-Colonel in the Int. Corps. He was also working, ostensibly for the Foreign Office and in a civilian capacity or role, in Iraq in 2005.

As MP and minister, Tugendhat has been associated with both “security” matters and allied matters of so-called “extremism”. He seems to be hostile to free speech, especially about Israel and the Jewish/Zionist lobby.

Well, one can draw one’s own conclusions.

Not much to say about Victoria Atkins. A barrister by training, and married to a multi-millionaire who is a director of numerous large companies, including British Sugar.

I cannot see any of the above appealing to the British voters.

The only Conservative Party MP for whom I would have any time at all would be David Davis [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Davis_(British_politician)], who at least has proven that he has principle, respect for civil rights and, also, courage. He, however, is now 75, and may not want to lead that rabble anyway.

Yes, that is the point. Despite the “arrangement” concluded by the System parties and the other anti-French parties, the RN hugely increased the number of RN deputies elected.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 4/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 5, and 8, and was unsure about question 6, so also did not award myself a point for that even though I knew it was one of two particular architects.

GE 2024

Not only that, but Starmer-Labour’s vote-share of 33.8% was, of course, 33.8% of those that bothered to vote. Turnout was only 60%, so Starmer-Labour’s share of the entire eligible electorate was only 20.28%. That’s before you even take into account those too young to vote.

So active support for Starmer-Labour is, at best, little more than 20%, one in five of the eligible electorate. Even then, one has to consider that —as I have blogged since a long time prior to the General Election— the main motivation for all voters, except the quite small minority that actually voted Conservative, was to get rid of the Conservative government and, if possible, party, not to install a Starmer-Labour government.

It is quite likely that only about 10%-15% of the population really support Starmer-Labour.

Of course, it is worse for the Conservative Party. On the above bases and premises, real support for the Conservatives, in the country as a whole, is somewhere between 5% and 14%. Much worse than their headline 23.7% vote-share.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_Kingdom_general_election

Nearly 60% of voters, of the 60% who voted, voted for one of the three main System parties, but if you factor in the non-voting eligible voters, that means that a minority (well below 40%) of all eligible voters voted for a System party . Then factor in younger people unable to vote, and the true “support” figure for the System, let alone the Starmer-Labour part of it, reduces to somewhere abound 20% (with Labour having maybe 15%, as already noted).

Jess Phillips saying that “Birmingham Yardley has given my family everything..”!

Ain’t that the truth?!

“Since 2019, Phillips has received the second highest income on top of her MP’s salary amongst Labour Party MPs.[5]” [Wikipedia]

A freeloading grifting opportunist. Labour Friends of Israel member. It is unfortunate that Jess Phillips was re-elected; by only 693 votes too, ahead of a candidate from Galloway’s “Workers’ Party”.

I doubt that Jess Phillips will be MP after 2029. No doubt she will be using the next 4-5 years to coin as much money as she can for herself and her family.

“Her son literally sells his wife Only Fans, and she has no experience outside of being a trade Union representative, is she remotely qualified or experienced enough to hold the office she has? These are valid questions. But we could ask this of the entire cabinet? Literally none of them have experience of my distinction outside of playing politics. Look at the business Secretary, he has literally never owned or even worked in a business? What knowledge can he possibly bring to the role? These are important questions, that can’t simply be brushed aside with a few slurs.“

Interesting.

Look at thick-as-two-short-planks David Lammy, now Foreign Secretary.

Admittedly, recent years have seen quite a few deadhead appointees to Cabinet anyway (including, as Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss and “Boris”-idiot), but look at this!

The only way this undeserved huge-majority Starmer-Labour government will not crash and burn within 1-2 years will be if it can stop mass immigration into the UK (I doubt that it will even try), and stop the cross-Channel “small boats” migration invasion (Starmer will probably simply set up “processing centres” in France, then rubberstamp 95% of applicants).

Starmer will also have to reconcile the “need” (caused mainly by mass immigration) to build huge numbers of new and really affordable houses and flats, meaning council or other social housing, and at the same time not trash the —mainly— English countryside, including Green Belt land.

Starmer-Labour will probably not have the money to build millions of dwelling units, so will turn to private housebuilding carpetbaggers, and so will probably let them loose on what should be protected countryside. Starmer will all but demolish planning controls answerable to local people.

I can see even worse bullying of the sick, disabled, and unemployed. Look at Rachel Reeves and Liz Kendall. Do you really see any compassion (or any particularly high intellect, or any willingness to think outside the box) there? I don’t.

Looks also as if the UK will continue to throw support, including money and weapons, to both “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) and Israel.

I see no higher (indeed, lower) living standards in prospect. Mass immigration inevitably means lower pay (whatever some Twitter-twits may think), and also higher taxes (because most of the immigrants are, at best, parasitic overall, and many are prolifically criminal as well).

The fabric of society will continue to fray, both by reason of the importation of about a million non-Europeans each year and because of cultural and administrative factors.

In short, this new pseudo-landslide government will almost certainly fail the British people, and fail quickly. After the people wake up to that, anything is possible.

I recall reading a Russian-language book about Dzerzhinsky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Dzerzhinsky], sometime around 1982. When he was, in the early 1920s, and amid his other responsibilities, head of the rail industry, he discovered considerable inefficiency, corruption etc. He had some executives and other people shot. Apparently, his methods, harsh though they certainly were, checked the problem sufficiently until systemic improvements were implemented: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Dzerzhinsky#Director_of_Cheka.

Just a thought.

Labour’s less sanguinary alternative.

Some industries are, in the contemporary era, better under public ownership. Rail. Domestic water supply. Most electricity. Most if not all gas.

Oh, right…let’s have a “bas-class” Mauritian Indian and pro-Israel puppet as “Conservative” leader and, later, potential (will never happen, though) Prime Minister…

No thanks…

I always said that the reason why British people, most of them, have not turned to social nationalism over my lifetime [b.1956] is because not enough of them were hurting enough. Not enough of them hurting enough and not enough of them knowing where to place the blame and, also, not enough of them knowing where to place their trust.

The situation at present, as I see it, is that living standards are now falling (and have been for some time), that social and civic standards are in most respects at an all-time low, and still sliding, and that the background and intellectual level of MPs is at an all-time low, as is public trust in, and respect for, them.

All those above factors are getting worse, more pronounced. At the same time (and connected to the above), mass immigration is totally out of control. Not just the cross-Channel “illegals”, but the “legals” coming in on student visas, work visas, “family and friends” visas, “fiancee” visas, tourist visas (the “tourists” then disappearing or claiming asylum) and the rest. A million a year, give or take.

That whole situation has been the background for the loss of confidence in the Conservative Party, and is also the reason why Starmer-Labour is also actually quite unpopular, despite its “landslide by default”.

The happy cheers from TV studios and from System journalists such as John Rentoul are not echoed by the British people.

The situation on the ground is why Reform UK, despite its semi-“libertarian” bias, and its often underwhelming candidates, has managed to get 5 MPs and (arguably as important) over 4 million votes.

When Starmer-Labour falters, in 2025 or 2026, the British people may be ready for a much more radical movement of the “Overton Window”, policies well beyond those of Farage’s Reform UK.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Vallance#Minister_of_State_for_Science

So it begins…

I notice also that Nick Boles, pro-Israel and a Bilderberg attendee, may be another to join the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Boles#Policy_positions; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilderberg_Meeting.

The System has several faces…

Tweeter “@jdpoc”, a self-describing “antifascist”, used to occasionally tweet rubbish about me, too. He has (as people now say) “issues”; he has made one or two guest appearances on one of my blog posts: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/.

Regular readers of the blog will know that I have never favoured the Rwanda plan, for several reasons (impracticability, cost, probability of political instability in Rwanda, numbers etc), but of course the cancellation will encourage the migrant-invaders (even more).

It is alarming to see (though Twitter is not at all typical of the mass of the public) how many idiots of the “Janet Cobb” type there are in the UK. Unwitting (?) gravediggers of our people’s future. Take a look at her Twitter/X timeline. Incredible wilful stupidity.

Now we see how Starmer intends to run his “elected” dictatorship. As a dictatorship. A Zionist-influenced or controlled tyranny. We are only on day 2 so far…

Jacqui Smith. Expenses cheat and freeloader, but that’s OK because she has the imprimatur from Israel…

…and then, after those who stole and grifted for years get chucked out in elections, those same cheats and freeloaders (such as Jacqui Smith) get invited back into government, given a peerage (no need for silly elections, oh no…), and a ministerial portfolio! How wonderful “democracy” is!

The very fact that a dim and corrupt woman such as Jacqui Smith became an MP says much about the decadence of the political system in the UK. That she became Home Secretary beggars belief. Corrupt, an expenses cheat, a freeloader and a fraudster, as well as an influence-peddler.

“She resigned as Home Secretary on 5 June 2009 following her involvement in the United Kingdom parliamentary expenses scandal in which she had falsely claimed that a room in her sister’s house was her main home.” [Wikipedia] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqui_Smith#Expenses_controversies.

Thick as two short planks, she was a teacher in the State school system before latching to to the old MP racket.

Now look. Despite her disgrace and removal as MP, she is sometimes invited onto TV shows as (risibly) having some kind of weight or credibility (why?), is paid much for “consultancy” “work” with KPMG etc (why? she knows nothing), and is even invited to take part in pleb-TV such as Strictly Come Dancing. How does she get away with it? Well, she is pro-NWO, pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby. Das ist’s! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqui_Smith#After_politics

Not that I have much time for George Galloway, who had the cheek to insult me and block me on Twitter. A political self-server and chancer, who (like not a few of the self-describing “Left” and “antifascists”) loudly opposes Israel while at the same time giving lip-service to the “holocaust” fable (even the absurd fiction of “gas chambers”) which fable is Israel’s main weapon; he pretends (?) to be not “antisemitic” (as if being “antisemitic” were a bad thing).

James O’Brien. Just another msm drone and Jewish-lobby puppet.

There is little point in arguing with enemies of that sort…

https://twitter.com/DeptfordFunCity/status/1363099614346371076?s=20

Emma Barnett describes herself as “a camouflaged Jew“. Not much! “They” always imagine that they are not immediately obvious but, in 99% of cases, are (if one is not asleep).

I repeat, arguing with such individuals is a waste of time…

When I myself was about 7, 8, 9, in the early-mid 1960s, I would often cycle from my home (almost at the very point at which Reading, Berkshire, becomes South Oxfordshire and open fields). I would sometimes venture several miles further, often to Mapledurham (the Thames-side village used, a few years later, in The Eagle Has Landed, though in that film the location was transposed to coastal Norfolk).

Hitchens is right. Almost everyone now is afraid of others, of a virus most will either not get or, if they get it, will not be aware of it, and of their own shadows.

Yes. I occasionally used to use Downing Street as a short cut, in the early 1980s, before the “Thatcher Gates” were installed.

Hitler etc

The huge “Hitler industry” rolls on, making profits for (often) Jews and others. Much of it is nonsensical. The typical TV “documentary” on Hitler has a number of “experts” (not infrequently Jewish), and often not very expert.

I was just watching a film about Hitler’s own art collection, and his own private funds. There were a number of schoolboy-level errors, as when one American “expert” mentioned the concentration camp “near the little town of Dachau, just south of Munich.” Dachau is north-west of Munich. I remember seeing the roadsigns for that place as I myself drove north out of Munich. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dachau,_Bavaria#Geography.

A small point, admittedly, but typical of the careless scholarship on anything to do with the NSDAP, Hitler, or the Reich generally.

The film about Hitler’s private funds did contain some points of interest, as when one researcher said that, when he started to research the subject, he was expecting to find that Hitler had looted his art collection (“expecting“…!), but was “surprised” (!) to find that every last item had actually been paid for in the usual way.

Looks like that researcher had had his mind warped by anti-Hitler propaganda…at least he was honest to admit what he had found out.

This is but the start. Whether the repression will reach its peak in 2021-2022 is as yet uncertain. It may not reach its peak until many years down the line. I do not know. What is happening now seems to be in the nature of a mass psychological experiment. How much will people take? How far can they be led? How much control will they accept? And so on.

Flybe

Sad news, though not unexpected. I used to use Flybe sometimes, in those long ago days before 2010 when I actually used to go places…I have flown Flybe (or partner airlines) out of its Exeter base, as well as to/from Southampton, Brest (Finistere), Newcastle, Norwich, Doncaster, Manchester, as well as a few other destinations. Quite good. Hard to see how Southampton and Exeter airports will be able to continue if, as reported, Flybe provided up to 95% of the throughput (BBC says 90% for Southampton and 80% for Exeter). Journeys such as Exeter to Newcastle or Norwich are hell by car, even at 100+ mph. I think that the Newcastle route, taken a couple of times, took about 40 mins actually in the air. Pretty good. Car? About 5-6 hours, depending on M5/M6 (etc) traffic.

Bad news for those employed too, both at Flybe and in other connected or supplying organizations. It may be, acc. to reports, that BA, or the appalling (one hears) Ryanair, may take over some routes, so all may not be lost.

Coronavirus

So far, the public “panic” is muted in the UK. There is a groundswell of unease, though. Over the past 2 days, I have noticed that the (only) local supermarket, a Waitrose, has run out of (nearly £20 a jar) Mauka honey, the cheaper and larger-pack loo paper, antiseptic handwash etc. Also, far fewer than usual number of shoppers.

The response of Boris-idiot’s government to the “Corvid-19” situation has been feeble. As I noted here a few days ago, my Australian niece (early 20s) returned a week or so ago from the (in the event, largely-cancelled) Venice carnival to a Heathrow Airport sans any checks or questioning. When I visited Macau from Hong Kong in 2006, the bird flu was around and my almost deserted return hydrofoil docked in Hong Kong to a reception of white-garbed and masked medical personnel, who pointed a kind of thermometer gun as I and the few other passengers passed by. Notices warned that anyone could be taken into quarantine if their body temperature was “too high”. Alarming.

I have no confidence in the ability of the NHS to handle a large-scale epidemic. Its administration is not very efficient, the UK has fewer beds per 1,000 population than any other “advanced” state —far fewer than France, for example— and its staff and facilities have been hit by years of “austerity” cuts and government mismanagement.

For no particular reason, The Black Bear:

 

Despite being part-Scottish somewhere in the mists of time (from my surname, which is believed to be Franco-Scottish in origin…a former girlfriend once visited a chateau in Normandy owned since it was built, hundreds of years ago, by a Templar-connected family called de Millard), I have never actually visited Scotland. Maybe some day.

Badgers

At last some good news for our lovely badgers:

If any portion of this is because of the influence of Boris-idiot’s fiancee, then I salute her.

For far too long, the organized farming lobby has had a disproportionate influence in Westminster. The only industry to be still subsidized to the hilt. Ecologically, generally very negative. I must blog about all that again soon.

Judicial leniency

The woman in the report below should have been imprisoned. Too many use the fact that they have popped out a couple of children as a reason for not getting a well-merited prison term, even in cases (as here) where the woman in question was cruel as well as neglectful.

Coronavirus and Boris-idiot

It becomes increasingly clear that (as I realized when the London riots broke out, years ago) Boris Johnson is no good in a crisis. In any crisis.

Monkey World UK, 2020

Why was the younger one “spared jail”? An airline captain on duty attacked, kicked, struck, blood drawn…What do you have to do in England today to be given a custodial sentence? (say something about the behaviour of Jews, probably…). As for the District Judge finding that the older woman was acting in “self-defence”, that is just a joke. Idiotic woman (I mean the “judge”). Finally, why are these semi-savages in the UK or any part of Europe?

Save the Children and Brendan Cox

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/save-the-children-sex-sexual-harassment-justin-forsyth-brendan-cox-a9376336.html

When I still had a Twitter account, I did a series of tweets re. “Save the Children” and also the fake charity called the “Jo Cox Foundation”. The former paid and still pays its top few people hundreds of thousands of pounds per year. No-oneexpects the heads of such a charity to work for nothing, but the largesse extended to the few at the top has a degree of obscenity about it, especially when contrasted with the TV ads showing starving children etc.

The sex pest and near (if not actual) rapist, Brendan Cox (husband of the assassinated virtue-signalling MP, Jo Cox), was paid, certainly by average standards, a huge salary and very generous expenses to be one of the main executives. That despite a very mediocre academic and work background.

He was finally brought down by sexual assault claims which, eventually, had to be admitted. I doubt whether his basic attitude has changed much. He now still is involved in some way with the Jo Cox “charity”.

I discovered, about 3 years ago, that the Jo Cox “charity” had officially-published aims and purposes which were ludicrously wide— they could mean almost anything, and —more significantly– purported to allow the “charity” to do anything, pretty much. I also discovered that the “Jo Cox Foundation” had never filed accounts. It has now, and its documents have been amended to fit within UK charities legislation:

The disgraced expenses cheat and former Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, is now “Chair” of “Jo Cox Foundation”, which apparently spent about £400,000 last year, despite having an income from donations and “trading” of only £300,000. I should get an accountant like that myself!

I have to say that the whole set-up seems very dodgy to me, even now. I do not think that the whole Jo Cox/Brendan Cox story has been uncovered; it certainly has not been told.
