More about vicious pro-Israel social media troll Pete Newbon
Many readers will know something about Pete Newbon, the social media troll who committed suicide during the civil trial in which he was one of three defendants, Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon, and Cantor.
Newbon had neglected to tell his wife about his activities and about his (then upcoming) defeat in that case, which meant that she would have been unaware that their family home was on the line, largely because Newbon and the other defendants had been misled, either deliberately or negligently, by the Jew-Zionist solicitors and Counsel in the case, in particular the egregious self-publicist, Israel-based Jewish solicitor, Mark Lewis (re Lewis, see blog posts passim via the blog’s search box).
The political site Skwawkbox has now published more material about Newbon:
“The heartbroken husband of Lucy Connolly who was jailed for posting an online rant over the Southport murders has condemned her appeal being dismissed today as ‘shocking and unfair’ – saying his wife is ‘not a right-wing thug’.
Ray Connolly said: ‘My wife Lucy is a good person and not a racist’, adding: ‘Lucy got more time in jail for one tweet than some paedophiles and domestic abusers get.’
Connolly, who is locked up at HMP Drake Hall, Staffordshire, had claimed to the Appeal Court last week that she had no idea what she was admitting to when she pleading guilty to a charge of inciting racial hatred.“
“In a written judgment, Lord Justice Holroyde, said: ‘There is no arguable basis on which it could be said that the sentence imposed by the judge was manifestly excessive.”
[Daily Mail]
Pity that the husband plays the System/msm game by adopting their language, though.
I had thought that the Court of Appeal would probably cut the sentence, allowing for the release of the appellant not immediately, but within a few weeks.
I admit I was mistaken. I had underestimated the pressure on the Court (however obliquely, so be it) from the evil Labour Friends of Israel government of Starmer-stein, Yvette Cooper, Rachel Reeves etc.
As for the ridiculous dictum of Holroyde L.J., quoted above, what can one say? Imagine a Lord Justice of Appeal thinking that a sentence of over 2.5 years for having posted a brief comment on social media is just about right… Ludicrous.
It is too late now, of course, but I think that Lucy Connolly should not have pleaded guilty in the first place.
Looking at the words she used in her social media comment, and at the construction of the sentences, it certainly would have been arguable that the words used, and in the way they were used, and in the context of where they were posted, did not in fact amount to incitement at all.
I think that Lucy Connolly could certainly have taken her chances before a jury, particularly if most of the jury had been echt-English. Also, even had she been convicted after a jury trial, the hysteria of the summer of 2024 would by then have abated, and the sentence would probably have been far less harsh, in my view.
This case and sentence were surely both nakedly political. The unfortunate lady has been used as a kind of scapegoat and example by Starmer-stein and fake Labour. The aim was wider than merely to discourage “rioters” (protesters) in the long hot summer of 2024; it was to discourage social media and other online dissent generally, and into the future.
Politically, though, Starmer-stein has misread the room (again). The Lucy Connolly case will backfire on him.
Lucy Connolly’s team can go to the Supreme Court by securing a certificate from the Court of Appeal — or applying directly. The Court hears points of law of public importance, and this should qualify. Criminalising non-inciting speech (“for all I care”) must be scrutinised.
Exactly (that last point), but of course Lucy Connolly pleaded guilty at first instance (for whatever reason), and so this appeal has been on sentence alone.
The courts made a case against Lucy Connolly of incitement to violence, but looking at the rhetoric from Starmer and others – subsequently proven untrue – it's possible to claim the PM was making an incitement to injustice. https://t.co/t7wmGfL1KD

In fact, the Crown case was never tested at trial, because the defendant pleaded guilty.
This is the Tweet that landed Lucy Connolly in prison. for two and a half years.
I have seen Muslim child r@pists get community service and walk free from court yet she, a mother and carer to an unwell husband gets two and a half years.
Lucy Connolly did NOT suggest burning immigrants; she said she wouldn't care if they WERE burned alive and that's a very different thing.

Exactly. Which is one reason why Lucy Connolly should have pleaded Not Guilty. She might then have had, even had she been convicted, a good arguable appeal point.
I have to say that, if her original solicitor advised a guilty plea on the basis that she had no defence, she was probably badly advised.

Keir Starmer is not putting out the anti-establishment revolt that is now erupting across the country; he is pouring petrol all over it. https://t.co/iNoPmlLqws
The Tories are now FOURTH, on just 16% in the latest YouGov. We are witnessing the death of one of the oldest and most successful parties in the history of democracy
No-one now is going to vote Con Party, for several reasons. First of all because it is now led, if such is the bon mot, by a Nigerian woman who has in the past called British workers “idlers“, and who, though born in London (her parents having come to London precisely for that purpose, to get her a British passport), was brought up in the alien surroundings of Nigeria and the USA. She only came back to her place of birth aged 16 or 17.
Secondly, the Conservative Party is partly, one might argue mainly, to blame for the terrible state the UK is in, and is going towards. 14 years of Con Party misgovernment. As I predicted, of course, the fake Labour government of Starmer-stein is as bad, or worse (many think worse), but that does not mean that many voters want to turn back the clock to 2010, 2015, 2017, or 2019.
The only people likely to vote Con now are elderly people who have always voted Con and who do not really keep up with events political or societal; those, and/or the affluent and wealthy who think that they would pay less tax under a Con government. Starmer-Labour, though, is almost indistinguishable from the Con Party in that respect.
Conservatives fall into fourth place with their lowest ever YouGov vote share, while Reform UK post their joint-highest lead since the election
There is a floor to Con Party support. I myself would estimate that floor as being somewhere around 15% but, having said that, if it were to look that the Cons had very little support and were therefore in perceivedly “wasted vote” territory, then even that floor might fall through.
On the basis of the latest opinion poll, the Commons might consist of 346 Reform members, 145 Labour, 73 LibDem, 39 SNP, and 17 Cons.
Matt Goodwin is therefore not right to say that the Conservative Party is now in 4th place. In terms of likely Commons seats, they are in 5th place; the 2% UK vote of the SNP is concentrated in Scottish seats, i.e. only about an eighth of all UK seats. You see the result predicted: SNP 39, Cons 17. Terminal for the Con Party…

Britain has been invaded and is being occupied: “legal” immigrants (supposed spouses, fiancees, students, work-visa holders, then illegal immigrants on “small boats etc”, then births to those non-white women already in the UK, and also to stupid white/British women impregnated by blacks).
Again, Reform in the top two places of an opinion poll. I think that all opinion polls for the past 6-9 months have had Reform either top or second.
The “Conservatives” have no chance after their 14 years of appalling misgovernment 2010-2024, especially now that their idiot MPs and ordinary members have (for the second time) chosen to be led by a non-white, non-British “leader”.
On the Opinium figures, the Commons would have both Reform and Labour on 228 MPs, Cons with 97, and LibDems with 43 (taking LibDems and Green as each having a 10% vote-share). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html
As with so many other recent polls, a Reform/Con government would be the only possibility, on those numbers, or a minority Reform government.
Very different figures, but same basic story. On those numbers, though, Reform UK would have about 325 MPs, one short of an absolute majority, but enough for a very thin working majority, without the need for support.
On the numbers there, Labour would have 154 MPs, Cons 58, and LibDems 45. If that were to happen, the Conservative Party would be utterly irrelevant, and likely to decline to near-zero over time.
Not sure whether that likely Con terminal decline would be the best result, or whether the best consequence of such an electoral result would be that Labour would have only 154 MPs instead of 403 (as now). A loss of 249 MPs. 249 upset System drones (plus 63 equally-upset Con ex-MPs; wonderful again…).

Starmer-stein and the Labour (Friends of Israel) misgovernment
So Starmer, with a potentially disastrous by-election (Runcorn and Helsby, 1 May 2025) coming down the track, is suddenly making meaningless “tough” noises about immigration gangs etc.
One thing is sure: the migration-invasion will not be stopped by such measures, even if implemented.
As far as Starmer is concerned, both as “world leader” or “statesman” (in his own little mind), he has, so far, managed to alienate both Russia and the USA, as well as 90% or more of the British people.

“Study the polls and see why Farage and Reform genuinely have a chance to govern.
Public put the Reform leader top in ‘best PM’ poll
Nothing is sticking. New polling for The Telegraph by Ipsos reveals that when asked who would do a “good job as prime minister”, Farage comes out on top on 28 per cent. Keir Starmer is one per cent behind, and Ed Davey two per cent. Badenoch is languishing at 18 per cent, her step-by-step approach to formulating a new set of Tory policies failing to register with voters who are still not listening to the “natural party of government”.
I went through the Ipsos numbers with Ben Butcher, our data editor, who identified just why Labour and the Conservatives should be worried.
“Labour is widely seen to be the party of the elite, with Reform trouncing Starmer with the C2DE and lower-paid respondents,” Butcher told me. The “red wall” is there for Reform’s taking, with the party polling well ahead of Labour amongst non-graduates.
“Ain’t nothing in the middle of the road but yellow stripes and dead armadillos,” said the American politician, Jim Hightower. As Davey attacks from the soft centre, Reform outflanks the Tories from the other side. The Conservative leader is on a perilous downslope, her skis pulling in different directions. Farage beats Badenoch with older voters, the working-class and lower paid people on the question of who would do a good job as Prime Minister.
“Let’s fix broken Britain,” Farage told 10,000 people in Birmingham. “I’m not mucking about.” The old parties that once commanded the comfortable heights of majority support are very clear that he is not.“

[Philby on a 5-kopeck late-Soviet commemorative postage stamp, and described as “Soviet Razvedchik“, a term which might be translated as “intelligencer”, rather than the grubbier-sounding “spy” (in Russian, “shpion”); “razvedchik” is a more polite or dignified term]
“Secret surveillance of Britain’s notorious double agent, Kim Philby, made public for the first time in archived documents, reveals how keenly the Security Service wanted to confirm or disprove early suspicions of his high-level treachery.
In daily bulletins submitted to MI5 in November 1951, undercover operatives describe how Philby, codenamed Peach, moved about London.
They said he gave “no outward sign of being either nervous or on the alert, but your well trained man should not do so; every movement is natural – again as it should be”
[Guardian]
The whole Philby thing has always been hugely overblown. Philby himself has been over-rated, too. Superficially well-educated, yes, but really a rather dogmatic Marxist-Leninist who, under other formative circumstances, might have been like some of the other basically mediocre professional-level bourgeois Englishmen I have met in my life, and who were not in secret-intelligence work but, variously, Roman Catholic converts, and/or military officers or barristers or other activity.
Philby was certainly no great mind, though he evidently thought himself very clever. Likewise, he was a bit of a plodder ideologically.
I recall that Philby wrote in his supposed memoirs (possibly part-ghosted by KGB helpers), My Silent War, or elsewhere, that “you choose your side and stick with it“, i.e. rather as others do to the Labour or Conservative parties, or to (the contemporary British obsession) football clubs. Unthinking loyalty. Stick-in-the-mud loyalty.
The puffing of Philby as the “masterspy”, or even “spymaster”, suited both sides in the Cold War: the Soviet side getting the gloss of having not only suborned Philby and other “Establishment” Englishmen to the Marxist/Soviet cause, but also having outplayed Western intelligence agencies in the spy game.
As for the British part of the Western side, Philby’s prominence could be presented as an example of why pervasive “security” (and the whole Cold War stance) was necessary. Also, his supposed “brilliance” in a way bolstered the reputation of institutions such as the more expensive English schools (Philby was at Westminster School) and, of course, the supposedly elite universities, in particular Cambridge.
The whole “Cambridge spies” story tends to puff the reputation of SIS and MI5 (despite their having been outplayed) by making their role seem terribly important. One scribbler even penned a well-known book called Philby— The Spy Who Betrayed A Generation, as if the Cambridge Spies were pretty much the centrepiece of British history since the 1930s, rather than an obscure footnote to it.
In the 1930s (when Philby started to work for Soviet organizations), there was (in the first half of the decade) the Great Depression, and the initial triumph of National Socialism in Germany. In the middle of the 1930s to 1939, the Spanish Civil War, while in Britain itself, the economy was recovering and society changing .
Then, in the early/mid 1940s, there was the titanic Second World War (in the Soviet Union, the Great Patriotic War).
In Britain, after 1945, there were the great social changes of the 1950s and 1960s. By that time, the “Cambridge Spies” were mostly not even in the UK. Maclean and Burgess had fled in 1951, and Philby was in journalistic exile in the Middle East. The economic and social changes in the UK were the main events, together with the start of the disastrous migration-invasion of non-whites into the UK, and Britain’s retreat from Empire.
The “Cambridge Spies” were not even footnotes to much of that. Near-irrelevant, despite the obsessions of the Westminster Bubblers and newspaper scribblers.
What damaged Britain in the 1940s through to the 1960s, and then on to today, was not a few spies passing on information to the Soviet Union, but the abandonment of Empire, the importation of blacks and browns in vast numbers, the cultural decadence etc.
You often see Philby and his fellow Cambridge spies described as “upper-class” or even “aristocratic”. In fact, not one was of “aristocratic” background, though all (except Cairncross) were affluent or wealthy. Philby’s own father was from an affluent government-connected family [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_John_Philby] but a fact generally ignored or covered-up is that Philby’s mother, Dora, was half-Indian, a so-called “chi-chi” (pron. “shi-shi”), which may have subtly affected his loyalties.
General Kalugin, in his memoirs, describes how his superiors had the idea of using Philby, then in Moscow, as a kind of lure for potential agents in the West, by showing that he was respected, had a good life etc. His first meeting with the shambling drunken Philby makes a memorable picture.
Incidentally, Philby never learned to speak or read Russian beyond a rudimentary level, and had English-language books supplied to him via the KGB (presumably via people at the London embassy, and the diplomatic bag).
In the early 1990s, sometime around 1994, I was slightly acquainted with a Russian businessman living in London, and with an office in Regent Street, who had some legal business (I was a barrister at the time). We had lunch at least once at my Inn (of Court), Lincoln’s Inn. I recall that the Spanish waitress was very taken with “Ed” [Edvard] and his rather Scandinavian looks (he was from the Baltic regions) and even asked me later if I might effect an introduction for her (that never happened).
“Ed” was quite open about the fact that, prior to his taking to capitalist business activity, he had been in the KGB, though that would only have been, at a guess, for a relatively few years. He recalled having been at a lecture or two given by Philby in Moscow (he said that that had been at the Lubyanka).
Incidentally, those comments in the Guardian from the MI5 surveillance directorate in 1951 do tend to beg the question; after all, if a surveillance target is acting naturally, then either he is not guilty, or is literally acting (and/or has been trained to act) naturally, so in fact may be guilty. If, though, the target looks nervous, looks for reflections in shop windows etc, does that mean that he is guilty, or is he just a nervous wreck and/or afraid of being thought guilty?

This is getting obscene now. How do you give people greater dignity by removing their ability to wash below the waist and get in and out of the shower. https://t.co/Htcx53yS2A
The sheer hypocrisy of the Labour Friends of Israel “Labour” government is simply unbelievable. Surely Liz Kendall, Rachel Reeves, Torsten Bell, Starmer-stein etc can see that? Or are they so removed from truth and decency that they cannot see it? That might be even more alarming.
A new MP for Runcorn? Bring on Reform, say disillusioned voters | Reform UK | The Guardian https://t.co/EgBKUoNgaE
I should imagine that even Labour-inclined voters will be voting Reform UK (or staying home) at the Runcorn and Helsby by-election, in order to send a message (and/or a kick) to this horrifyingly callous and irredeemably incompetent misgovernment.
As to Conservative Party loyalists in the area, I should say that the Cons have no chance— so vote Reform in order to stick it to fake Labour.
From “tepid bath of managed decline” (really offensive) to blood bath. On top of 30,000 NHS England jobs. We are the party of work, it’s in our name, says Starmer! I don’t think you are. What a disgrace and totally counterproductive in an already struggling economy. https://t.co/HNL1ZdmhUP
“Given that there is a lot of talk about changes to special educational needs provision and reform plans for the NHS, we should worry about what the government might focus on next. Equally alarming, it seems to me, is a belief in Downing Street that reviving the UK demands embracing the wonders of artificial intelligence, which Keir Starmer believes will have an almost magical effect on everything from social work to education, and realise his new dream of “totally rewiring government”. Because this is an administration so lacking in everyday humanity, that is a much more scary prospect than he and his colleagues seem to realise.“
[John Harris in The Guardian]
I should not be surprised to find (if I am still around) that, somewhere down the line, in 5+ years’ time, the members of the present Cabinet will find themselves up against a wall.
A super piece. I simply don't take Kemi Badenoch seriously. She will never be Prime Minister. I rate her 1/10. Keir Starmer, who I rate 3/10, surely can't believe his luck. Even so, tangentially, I increasingly wonder how much longer Starmer is PM? He'll be gone well before 2029.
Russia and the US have a long way to go to resolve the situation in Ukraine, and there is no point in deceiving ourselves about imminent prospects, said Russian Presidential Press Secretary Peskov pic.twitter.com/SmBOg59npJ
Sumy Oblast or region is in NE Ukraine. Sumy city is NNW of Kharkov; about 150 miles from Kharkov by road but only about 90 miles as the crow flies. About 200 miles east of Kiev.
So Russian forces are in Sumy Oblast now. There seem to be Russian advances in all material parts of the overall front. Kiev-regime forces are falling back.
I don't think people properly understand the extent to which Labour is now the party of the rich. In 1997 the Tories led Labour by 10 points amongst the most affluent AB social class. But Labour led the Tories by 23 points amongst C2s, and 38 points amongst DEs. In 2024 Labour…

If you want the full story about Beth Grossman of Doughty Street, Mark Lewis of Patron Law, and Daniel Berke of 3D Solicitors, here it is:https://t.co/02BP64b6sl
I think it was Daniel Berke’s firm 3D Solicitors who acted for Pete Newbon in relation to Northumbria. Maybe it was them who advised him not to make the agreed apology?
As to why they gave that advice, my theory is that the plan was to sue Michael Rosen and making the apology…
For those who are unaware of the outline of James Wilson’s (now-successful) libel case against three defendants (all Jews; in one case, possibly only a part-Jew), the defendants were advised and/or represented by Jewish solicitors and barristers who seem to have been, all or variously, professionally negligent and/or incompetent.
Mark Lewis and Daniel Berke were the main solicitors for the defendants, Beth Grossman of Doughty Street Chambers was the barrister (possibly the only barrister; I do not know, and only heard of her recently, via Wilson’s Twitter/X account and Substack blog).

I have blogged many times about him, over many years; he has never once threatened to sue me (no doubt partly by reason of my impecuniosity, but truth as defence –or other defences— may also have much to do with it).

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

Re. the case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased), and Cantor
If you want the full story about Beth Grossman of Doughty Street, Mark Lewis of Patron Law, and Daniel Berke of 3D Solicitors, here it is:https://t.co/02BP64b6sl
Those tweets by James Wilson, the victorious claimant (plaintiff) in the libel case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased), and Cantor, refer to two of the solicitors (perhaps the only two) and barrister (perhaps the only one— I do not know) of the defendants.
As seen, all the lawyers shown are Jewish. All of the defence witnesses were also Jews, as were the defendants (one may have been only part-) .
As far as I know, every last one of the witnesses were Jews. The trial judge assessed those witnesses’ veracity and relevance as having been (in my own words) rock-bottom. Worthless.
One of the witnesses for the defence was the fanatical and obsessed Jew-Zionist barrister and, until dismissed, part-time judge (Recorder), Simon Myerson of Leeds/Manchester, infamous for his nasty and malicious tweets etc.
The successful claimant in that case, Wilson, a Northern English academic, did well to stand up to the usual Jew-Zionist “claque” and clique pressure (whereby “they” band together to relentlessly attack a victim).
Well, Wilson won, and now (because notorious Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis, was apparently both dishonest and negligent in his handling of the matter, and may also have deliberately misled the Court) at least one of the defendants, Cantor, will probably lose his family home (not that I have any sympathy for him).
Barrister Beth Grossman of Doughty Street.
In 2023, she spent 2 hours in the High Court arguing my claim be struck out on the ground of minimal publication.
I am – I hope – going to be able to publish something about Mark Lewis of Patron Law acting for the CAA and Gideon Falter and what seems to have happened as a result.
I think – assuming that Ms Grossman saw the evidence her client sent – it is arguable she misled the court.
Here is an extract from the BSB handbook. The two issues are her own submissions and whether she knew Mark Lewis’ witness statement was untrue or misleading. https://t.co/3f2uBtktZlpic.twitter.com/pj62zSiO4c

While I do not think very much of Reform UK, the voters of Runcorn and Helsby must vote Reform at the by-election, to stick it to the System, to fake Labour, and to Starmer-stein.

Runcorn and Helsby, constituency voting intention:
Reform lead of 9 points in Runcorn ought to be 3 pts – it doesn't matter: the direction of traffic between now and polling day is one way https://t.co/DlPLJ2Lo5K
Rentoul obviously thinks that Reform will win the by-election. I should say the same. After all, look at the disaster that is the Starmer-stein government of cretins. “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, thick and uneducated Angela Rayner, would-be dictator Yvette Cooper, idiotic moneygrubber Liz Kendall, thick Pakistani Shabana Mahmood and, to top it all off, thick-as-two-short-planks David Lammy! (see below)
Putin and Lavrov must laugh their heads off at that idiot (and the rest). Worse even than “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss etc.
In fact, the surprise in the by-election opinion polling is that almost a third of people in that constituency still intend to vote “Labour” (Labour-label), even though there is nothing, in the present government, of real Labour at all. Just look at what they have done in the past 7+ months, and what they are planning to do. Even 2010-2024 “Conservative” governments were no worse.
I think that I may stick out my neck and predict that the by-election result will probably be 40%-45% Reform, 25%-30% Labour, 10% Conservative, 5% Green, 5% LibDem. Something like that.
True, a date has yet to be set for the by-election, and the mood may change a little, but not in essence (I think).
The Reform candidate will be under intense scrutiny; the System parties will be doing everything they can to discredit that candidate, and dig up damaging material about him (or her, though I would expect the candidate to be a man, in all likelihood). He (or she) had better be squeaky-clean.
It occurs to me that Reform may select Matt Goodwin. It would be a triumphant entry into direct front-line politics for him, and I note how Reform-loyalist his tweets now are.
I may be wrong, but I should not be surprised to see Matt Goodwin emerge, eventually, as leader of Reform. If he can win a Commons seat between now and the next UK General Election, that might see Goodwin actually become Prime Minister. Stranger things have happened.
As a matter of fact, the shorter the time between selection of a Reform candidate and polling day the better, thus giving Labour backroom spinners less time in which to dig up or contrive anything discreditable…
“Lynne Bennett, 70, voted Labour in July, but this time, she said she would vote Reform, adding: “A lot of our family is going to do the same.”

Any former Con voters still thinking of voting Con at the by-election would have to be utterly brainless. The Con candidate has no chance, will probably come only fourth, and may well lose the deposit (i.e. score under 5%). The only way for a Con voter to hit Labour at the by-election is to vote Reform.

Mark Lewis is just incredible.
What Lewis said: – analytics will be provided as soon as received – his client has nothing to hide
Reality: – Lewis received analytics 6 months before this email – he hid those analytics from the judge and me
That photo, like others recently posted, is a decade or more out of date. Lewis, now an Israeli citizen supposedly resident in Eilat, Israel, is a shambling wreck in 2025, both physically and mentally.

Readers wishing further detail should use the blog search box: “Mark Lewis”, James Wilson” etc.
Lewis, reprimanded and fined by the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal in 2018 for his malicious and nasty social media activities, fled to Israel, but maintains a legal foothold in England by reason of his nominal partnership in the small and mainly Jewish law firm known as Patron Law, based in a mews side-street in Notting Hill, West London.
As to one of Lewis’s two now-dissolved marriages, to one-time minor British radio and TV newsreader, Caroline Feraday, that fell apart after a year, in or about 2013 . She initially joined in his Twitter abuse of me, but now (having been financially and physically abused etc by Lewis), is washed-up, “fat and fifty”, and a single mother (Lewis was not the father), living in a small house in a “Nowheresville” Californian scrubland suburb, and working for a local radio station out there. #TenGreenBottles…
Incidentally, Caroline Feraday’s Wikipedia entry (heavily edited by herself) has more holes than a Swiss cheese (and Lewis is not even mentioned in it…).
As James Wilson notes, Lewis should have been struck off the solicitors’ roll years ago. That would only happen, though, if someone such as Wilson were to make an official complaint…
“Celebrity lawyer” whose only assets in 2018 were, according to his own defence Counsel at the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal, his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a £70 a week private pension. Even his car was being provided for him via the DWP Motability scheme (funded by all those “antisemitic” British taxpayers).
Actually, he did, it seems, also own a flat in Israel at the time, but he seems to have concealed that fact from the Tribunal and, presumably, also from his own Counsel. Dishonest. Unfit.
What worries me is that if Mark Lewis knowingly tried to mislead the court in my case, what about other cases?
Has Lewis won other cases by basically cheating for his clients?
Unless Wilson complains to the SRA, that is not going to happen. Perhaps, though, he will make formal complaint.

Starmer-stein “Labour”, though, seems to be diving even deeper into the abyss than did the “Conservatives” from 2010-2024 and especially 2010-2015.
The Conservative Party, now “led” (astray?) by a Nigerian woman chancer, is destined to disappear, I think. It now seems to have no natural constituency among the public (even the elderly are abandoning it), and its place in the political matrix seems to be based mainly on the fact that it has been there for nearly 200 years. No obvious “offer” to the people or, in particular, the voters.
Mass deportations should be the default position of any self-respecting country.
Aiming to remove all illegal migrants from our country is in no way controversial. And actually, a large majority of Brits agree with me.
I would go much further than that. For one thing, illegal migrant-invaders are only about a twentieth of the current migration invasion, perhaps less. Also, there are, shall I say, other groups that should not exist in the UK.
If it had been, say, a White English woman who posted satirical parody songs on her own website…@SpeechUnion's selective defence / condemnation and ensuing promotion of these, imo, more trivial cases is a sad reflection of what passes for 'conservatism' in today's Britain.
The Toby Young fake “Free Speech Union” grift-org was penetrated and permeated by the (((you-know-who))) element right from the start. It never said a word in support of a woman who posted amusing satirical songs, mainly about Jews (Alison Chabloz, imprisoned for the same), or in support of a man who gave a speech in Whitehall (Jez Turner, imprisoned for that), or a man who distributed stickers which even the Prosecution at his trial conceded were “not unlawful” (Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative, imprisoned for that), or a man who ran an Internet “radio” podcast show (Sven Longshanks/James Allchurch, imprisoned for that), or a man who was disbarred for having tweeted 5 tweets, all absolutely true in their content (that was me), or a man convicted of having posted 5 supposedly partly “grossly offensive” blog posts, out of about two thousand (me, again— fined over £700 and forced to attend half a dozen or so pointless meetings with a Probation Service person, though she was very polite and rather charming, so be it).
How about making it a “priority”, and indeed a given, to have only real British people in Parliament?

I was/am still a huge fan of Rupert Lowe. I’m still not entirely convinced by Reform/Farage and effectively still homeless when it comes to a political party. However, do I think they are our best chance against the abomination that is Lab/Starmer & the uniparty? Yes, I do.
Politics is the art of the possible, as they say. Reform UK is currently the best chance to destabilize the LibLabCon trick rigged system. Once that is done, enough, social nationalism can emerge properly.
1, Keir Starmer blaming Putin for the cost of living crisis is the same PM who increased the so called black hole from £22bn to £142bn. 2, What Starmer doesn’t realise is that he admitted Putin has more control of The U.K. economy than him and Rachel from complaints.
A, She and Labour knew and approved the preferential treatment. B, She like the other Labour ministers lied in parliament when she said that would not be two tier justice under her watch. https://t.co/LXgA9KM3t1
Well, Shabana Mahmood, obviously, is not really British in the full sense, though born in the UK. Pakistani parents, and she lived until age 6 in Taif, Saudi Arabia.
Even leaving that aside, the qualifications of Shabana Mahmood to be mock-“Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice are ludicrously lightweight, even for contemporary Britain: a Bar pupillage (traineeship) for 12 months, then a year as a low-paid “gopher” at a firm of solicitors. I do not think that she was even working as a lawyer of any sort between then (2008) and when she was elected as MP in 2010. So, at best, two years, and as the most junior of lawyers…

Looks nice. Pretty sure that that hotel did not exist when I lived in the “tri-state region” (1989-1993, on and off). My first wife told me that, as a girl of about 10, which would have been in the mid-1970s, she used to ride her bicycle across to Roosevelt Island. Not sure that I would have allowed my daughter of 10 (if I had one) to do that. Roosevelt Island was fairly derelict then, as far as I know.
On the other hand, my own parents used to let me travel into Sydney from where we lived (Mosman/Cremorne) from age 10 or 11 (1967 and the succeeding 2 years) and, when I was aged 12/13, were letting me travel alone by Greyhound bus to Miami, and also walk alone around Acapulco and other places. Perhaps parents and other people now are less secure, more frightened (like society generally).

Watched a recent TV drama or thriller called The Au Pair the other day. Set mainly in the Cotswolds, though filmed in Ireland, it was quite good, and had an interesting twist in the plot near the end of the four 1-hour episodes, but —irritatingly— the makers felt the need to shoehorn some West Indians into the story (set in one of the least “diverse” parts of England!); the garden party scene was even more absurd (and even less credible). This country is just so ****** now. Made so, actually, by ill-intentioned individuals and groups.
Starmer-stein is out of his depth. Useless in every way. Personally, I do not care whether Trump comes to the UK or not, but (as with Tony Blair and others) it is just pathetic to see what poodles British prime ministers are when it comes to the USA (and Israel).
What a piece of work Rachel Reeves is. The UK economic contraction was for January when markets were still riding high and before Trump’s trade war even started. She’s pinning the blame elsewhere when it lies firmly with her and Labour’s catastrophic economic policies. Worse, her… pic.twitter.com/pz3GGOvAsV
[“No, wait! I voted Labour in 2024!” cried the poor mug as Liz Kendall, Rachel Reeves, and Keir Starmer-stein ordered the execution by stealth of the old, sick, and disabled]
The UK economy tanked from 0.4% to 0.1% at the start of the year. We are going backwards. This is what happens when you cling to a Big State, Big Tax, Big Debt, Big Net Zero, Big Immigration model that is stifling growth and prosperity.
Not sure I agree with all of that, but certainly agree about the net zero and mass immigration aspects. I wonder whether Matt Goodwin is positioning himself to become leader of Reform UK and, therefore, potentially, Prime Minister by 2028 or 2029?
As to the Runcorn and Helsby by-election, it is now surely Reform UK’s to lose, looking at the utterly disastrous Starmer-stein Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment. I have already covered the by-election on the blog:
Incidentally, Lord Ashcroft or his employees should learn to spell: “likelihood” is not spelled “likelyhood“.
That opinion poll is interesting, though. Labour support in the constituency seems to have almost halved since the 2024 General Election. In a way, however, the fact that a third of Runcorn and Helsby voters are still inclined to stick with fake “Labour” despite both the thuggishness of the former MP and the actions of Starmer-stein’s useless and unpleasant government says something, arguende, about the intelligence or nous of the average voter!
The fact is that the Conservative Party has no chance in that constituency anyway, so the way for Con or former Con supporters to stick it to Labour and/or Starmer-stein is to vote Reform.
As for disenchanted Labour or former Labour voters, they can protest against Starmer-stein’s and Rachel Reeves’ (and Liz Kendall’s) utter betrayal of everything for which “Labour” used to stand by voting Reform or, failing that, or if they cannot countenance that, by just staying home, abstaining from voting.

Incidentally, I just saw a Daily Mirror report about Kiev-regime drone strikes on Moscow yesterday or overnight. It included the classic error that one Ukrainian drone had hit an oil refinery near Moscow, “only 55 miles” from Putin’s palace on the Black Sea. Well, the nearest place —let alone palace— on the Black Sea from Moscow is about 865 miles away. The “British” msm is just full of absolute bs.
Only unexpected if you're called Rachel Reeves & are a disciple of this traitorous government. Anyone else saw it coming a mile off. Rachel from Accounts is not up to the job. She's in "good" company, though, because from #2TierKier down, none of them are. #StopLabour
I agree with that tweet, but I also agree with this:
At present, the UK is importing about a million so-called “legal” immigrants every year, as well as 50,000-100,000 illegal ones. There is no indication that Starmer-stein, “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, or Liz Kendall see any of that as the existential peril for our society that it is.
As for Rachel Reeves’ idea of building millions of hutches for people (many of them migrant-invaders): first of all, who will build those “houses”, in a situation where even poorly-trained artisans are in short supply? Secondly, few will be able to afford to buy or even rent the dwellings. Most will be subsidized. How will that save government money, or much stimulate the general economy?
More pathetic System-drone bs, in other words.
In my latest piece, I analyse whether Mark Lewis of Patron Law knowingly misled the High Court with his evidence in my case.
I think it is possible that his conduct amounts to contempt of court.

The above half-dozen tweets all relate to the libel action won by the tweeter, James Wilson, an academic from the North East of England, who won against a swamp of dishonest Jew-Zionist lawyers and perjuring or “unreliable” witnesses (every last one a Jew-Zionist).
Simon Myerson was a witness for the defence in that case. Myerson, a barrister based in Leeds, was later sacked as a part-time judge for other reasons, at least officially (his malicious and vituperative tweets and other social media comments). In the case in question here, Myerson’s testimony was given very little, if any, weight by the trial judge.
As for the defendants, one, a vicious pro-Israel social media troll called Pete Newbon, committed suicide before the trial had ended, he having failed to inform his wife that the libel case was happening, and that their family home might be on the line.
Another defendant, one Cantor, was (as it appears) either negligently or, quite likely, deliberately misled by the Jew-Zionist solicitor and Israel-lobby political fanatic Mark Lewis. It seems that Cantor will now lose his family home by reason of Lewis’s default(s), in order to satisfy the court-ordered legal costs of the successful claimant, Wilson. Not that I personally have the slightest sympathy for Cantor or any similar individual.
I do not know, but it seems not unlikely that, the defendants or surviving defendants having now a legal obligation to pay Wilson’s costs (though they are but a fraction of those that would have been claimed by the lawyers of the defendants, had they succeeded at trial), those surviving defendants will almost certainly end up suing Lewis and probably also Patron Law, the mainly Jewish law firm (based in a mews side-street in Notting Hill, West London), which is Lewis’s legal foothold in England (he is now, and has been since 2018, an Israeli citizen supposedly living in Eilat, Israel).
Good grief! Can you imagine that drunken and/or drugged and/or crazed shambles negotiating with Putin, or Zelensky, or Netanyahu?
There really is something wrong with the allegedly “democratic” process, both in the USA and the UK, when some creature like Kamala Harris can become Vice-President, and nearly become President, of the USA. In the UK, look at David Lammy, Angela Rayner, and most of the rest of Starmer-stein’s Cabinet.

This is interesting.
The top issue for ALL voters in Runcorn & Helsby, not only Reform voters, is immigration and asylum.
As frequently said on this blog, immigration affects everything when it is on the present Biblical scale— housing, pay, benefits, pensions, traffic, rail travel, crime, the environment, culture. You name it.

There are some enterprises, some kinds of economic enterprise, that should be in public ownership: water companies, major rail services, large-scale electricity production and distribution, large-scale domestic-use gas production and distribution; some other activities.
Some other things, relating to the State and/or wider society, should also be run by the State itself, or by a quasi-State authority: Royal Mail, prisons, National Lottery; some others as well.
Talking point— a “free speech” thread on Twitter
Free speech is free speech, Alex.
You can’t complain about it by shutting it down.
‘The left’ are not outraged. Normal folk are not comfortable with outward displays of Nazism.
What the fuck does that sign have to do with Jewish communities? Disgraceful to bring them into this. Defamation needs to be untrue – Musk literally did a Nazi Salute and then supported a Nazi like party in Germany the AFD.
Have any UK-based Jewish-Zionist organisations complained? – They're habitually the most litigious when it comes to being "grossly offended" over e.g. satirical songs.
By the way, have any of these same NGOs complained about Tory Lord Hamilton "Jews have lots of money" remarks?
GB News, looking at its output, is very obviously permeated by “the usual suspects” (((“them”))) and paid puppets.
Also, I only noticed today that reply by what purports to be a Twitter/X account of persecuted satirist and singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz. If so, good to see her back on Twitter/X.
Alert regular readers of the blog may have noted that it is exactly a year (14 March 2024) since I was sentenced as a result of my free speech trial in November 2023.
Amazing. A whole year has elapsed since the sentence, and about 16 months since the trial itself. I repost my accounts of the trial, sentence, and aftermath here below:
I was able to continue blogging right through the process, and am still blogging almost every day, about 25-30 times per month.
As previously explained, I am under no greater legal constraint now than I was in 2024, 2023, 2022 (etc).
I have no doubt that the malicious Jew-Zionist element will continue to try to destroy the freedom of speech and expression not only of me but also of all British and other people. However, one must stand up for free speech and expression.
As far as I am concerned, “one human soul is a big audience“.
