Saturday quiz

This week, a slim victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 6/10, I scored 7/10. “By a head, cleverly“, you might say.

I did not know the answers to questions 3, 6, and 8.

British Legacy Media in meltdown mode after JD Vance Speech “Again he’s talking rubbish” “Because of Russian interference” The pundits dismiss Vance’s accurately poignant comments as “rubbish & nonsense” and continue to indulge in complete fantasies. Thankfully people are now starting to see straight through these charlatans.

Ecce the state of “British” political discourse in the msm or “legacy mass media”— a discussion between incredibly ignorant and uncultured scribbler Susie Boniface (the so-called and self-styled “Fleet Street Fox”), and some black woman whom I know not; no idea who she might be.

Those two, and a young woman presenter also unknown to me, “discuss” (entirely tendentiously), the geopolitical consequences of the comments and policies of Trump, J.D. Vance, and Putin. Risible.

Fertility, birth-rates, and the future

That may or may not explain the drastic fall in birth-rates in the more advanced countries, but how to explain the fall of the birth-rate in places such as China, and even India?

In fact, the only regions (with a couple of small exceptions) where the population is still growing via human births (as distinct from mass immigration) are Africa (mainly sub-Saharan Africa, black Africa) and Pakistan/Afghanistan.

Look at the graphic from 2020 (which is already out of date, and the trends noted even more stark in 2025). Replacement of population only happens around or slightly higher than 2.1 children born per woman (average). People used to talk, in the 1960s, 1970s, about the average British family in their modest suburban house and “with 2.4 children”.

Look now. The birth-rate of Europeans is well below replacement rate. UK around 1.5.

That is true (see graphic) even in France and Sweden, whose higher birth-rates are entirely by reason of the invasion by blacks and browns (i.e. children born to the invaders).

I do not know whether the “birth-control in the water” scenario is true, or to what extent, and whether that is deliberate or accidental, and to what extent, if at all, deliberate.

An alternative explanation for the fact that only in the most backward regions (Africa and Pakistan/Afghanistan, parts of the Middle East) are births now well beyond replacement level might be that only the most backward discarnate souls are not now, or have not been relatively recently on the Earth plane. Only or mostly the Africans and south-west Asians now flock into incarnation, to experience the civilization at its height (in some ways).

That may portend the end of our present civilization quite soon.

What the world needs is for a quintessence of the advanced peoples to create a nucleus of Aryan or post-Aryan people, and for that nucleus to create a relatively small number of families who, in turn, can be the seed of a people who, in their turn, can create the basis for a much later super-culture based on —in the correct sense— a super-race.

Most Europeans of today are descended from only three men of the Bronze Age. Worth remembering that fact.

JD Vance is saying out loud what millions of European people are thinking. We are losing our nations through mass uncontrolled immigration, broken borders, censorship, and an elite class that no longer represents the values and voice of the Forgotten Majority.”

In Devon and Cornwall, local Craft freemasonry is still rife, and most planning decisions are connected to it (and to profits and kickbacks). The author John le Carre (David Cornwell) faced a whole conspiracy when he fought against inappropriate “development”.

Kiev loses over 280 troops in Russia’s borderline Kursk area over past day, the Russian Defense Ministry reported: https://vk.cc/cIDjG3

The Kiev regime will probably fall this year or in 2026.

A la recherche du temps perdu

Was just indulging, again, in a favourite pointless (?) occupation, namely looking at street scenes via Google Earth Street View.

Fascinating how areas change over time.

I notice that a building between Whitehall and the river, once used by part of MI5, and also other government bodies, is now a luxury hotel charging some £600+ per night: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corinthia_Hotel_London.

The close-nearby (and 4*) Royal Horseguards Hotel, which I have visited a couple of times, though only the bar, and which is a good hotel with views of the Thames from many of the rooms, currently charges about £200+ per night, a third as much as the Corinthia.

Well, “you pays yer money“, I suppose…

Well, while the whole Russia-Ukraine-NATO situation is now cast into the hazard, there can be no doubt that, with Trump’s accession, the Kiev regime is on the back foot.

I notice, though, that the usual NWO/ZOG voices are now talking about a general European war within a short time (as little as one year from today!). How desperate they are to foment a war with Russia. As the old saying goes, “be careful what you wish for”. A war with Russia would probably result in the annihilation of much of the Europe we know, including much of the UK (if not all).

So according to that stupid woman, the “top priority” of the EU should not be the interests or well-being of the EU or its peoples, or their prosperity, or anything other than whatever the brutal, shambolic and corrupt Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev may demand from the EU states?

Is she mad, or just another tool of NWO/ZOG? Mostly the latter, I think..

Note her friends:

She is known for reading history books, and is friends with historians Timothy Garton Ash and Timothy Snyder.[118]

[Wikipedia]

As to those two, both embedded NWO/ZOG globalists at a high level:

“[Timothy] Garton Ash describes himself as a liberal internationalist.[10] He is a supporter of what he calls the free world and liberal democracy, represented in his view by the European Union, the United States as a superpower, and Angela Merkel‘s leadership of Germany.

In more recent times [Garton Ash] has represented a British liberal pro-EU viewpoint, nervous at the rise of Vladimir PutinDonald Trump and Brexit. He is strongly opposed to conservative and populist leaders of EU nations, such as Viktor Orbán of Hungary, arguing that Merkel should “freeze him out”, evoking “appeasement“.[12] Garton Ash was particularly upset about Orbán’s move against George Soros‘ Central European University.[12] … he notes with regret the move away from liberalism and globalism towards populism and authoritarianism under socially conservative political and religious leaders.”

[Wikipedia]

As to Snyder:

Timothy David Snyder (born 1969)[2] is an American historian specializing in the history of Central and Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union, and the Holocaust.

Snyder serves on the Committee on Conscience of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. He is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

He received his bachelor of arts degree in history and political science from Brown University and his doctor of philosophy degree in modern history in 1995 at the University of Oxford while under the supervision of Timothy Garton Ash and Jerzy Jedlicki. He was a Marshall Scholar at Balliol College, Oxford, from 1991 to 1994.[9][10][11]

He is a member of the Committee on Conscience of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.[15] On September 25, 2020, he was named as one of the 25 members of the “Real Facebook Oversight Board”, an independent group monitoring Facebook.”

Historical note

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

Charles Edward Coughlin (/ˈkɒɡlɪn/ KOG-lin; October 25, 1891 – October 27, 1979), commonly known as Father Coughlin, was a Canadian–American Catholic priest based in the United States near Detroit. He was the founding priest of the National Shrine of the Little Flower. Dubbed “The Radio Priest ” and considered a leading demagogue,[1] he was one of the first political leaders to use radio to reach a mass audience. During the 1930s, when the U.S. population was about 120 million, an estimated 30 million listeners tuned in to his weekly broadcasts.[2]

Coughlin was born in Ontario to working-class Irish Catholic parents. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1916, and in 1923 he was assigned to the National Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak, Michigan. Coughlin began broadcasting his sermons during a time of increasing anti-Catholic sentiment across the globe. As his broadcasts became more political, he became increasingly popular.[3]

Initially, Coughlin was a vocal supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal; he later fell out with Roosevelt, accusing him of being too friendly to bankers. In 1934, he established a political organization called the National Union for Social Justice. Its platform called for monetary reforms, nationalization of major industries and railroads, and protection of labour rights. The membership ran into the millions but was not well organized locally.[4]

After making attacks on Jewish bankers, Coughlin began to use his radio program Golden Hour to broadcast antisemitic commentary. In the late 1930s, he supported some of the policies of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. The broadcasts have been described as “a variation of the Fascist agenda applied to American culture”.[5] His chief topics were political and economic rather than religious, using the slogan “Social Justice”.

After the outbreak of World War II in Europe in 1939, the National Association of Broadcasters forced the cancellation of Golden Hour. In 1942, the Archdiocese of Detroit forced Coughlin to close his newspaper Social Justice and forbade its distribution by mail. Coughlin vanished from the public arena, working as a parish pastor until retiring in 1966. He died in 1979 at age 88.[6][7][8]

[Wikipedia]

It seems that Father Coughlin’s views were a more politicized, and more American (though he was born and brought up in Ontario), equivalent of those espoused by those of the great G.K. Chesterton, Hilaire Belloc, and others of a Roman Catholic or an Anglo-Catholic ideological background prior to the Second World War.

Leaving aside the rights and wrongs, “IQ” can only take you so far. My own IQ was once measured (40 years ago) at 156, easily within the top 1% of the population, yet I have not taken over leadership of the world and, at age 68, time is running out, at least in my present incarnation.

Looking at most politicians, commentators, business leaders etc in our society, intellectual mediocrity is more likely to lead to “success” than a stellar IQ.

Interestingly, it is claimed that Marilyn Monroe had an IQ equivalent to that of Einstein, which must make one question the basis for IQ’s societal prominence. We are only at the early stages of understanding what makes the brain, the human personality, and society, work.

Ukraine

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jan/31/tired-mood-changed-ukrainian-army-desertion-crisis

When Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine three years ago, Viktor* was ready to die for his country. He volunteered to defend Kyiv as enemy tanks appeared and joined Ukraine’s armed forces. In the spring of 2023 he was fighting in the village of Tonenke, near the eastern city of Avdiivka. “When I arrived I was super-motivated. If necessary I would give my life,” he recalled.

Gradually, however, he became disillusioned. The battle was furious. “The Russians would smash our positions to the ground,” he said. Senior Ukrainian commanders gave unrealistic orders. Then, while he was defending a ruined building, a panel fell on his shoulder. After receiving injections to reduce the pain, he was told to return to the front. “I realised I’m nobody. Just a number,” he said.

In May that same year, Viktor left his position to seek further medical treatment. He did not come back. His commander marked him down as awol. Viktor is one of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers who have abandoned their units. The exact figure is a military secret, but officials concede the number is large.

The issue of desertion has made headlines in Ukraine. Last week the government launched an investigation into the 155th Mechanised Brigade. Fifty-six soldiers disappeared while training in France. Hundreds of others are said to be missing.

After three years of war, Ukraine is desperately short of soldiers, especially infantry. This has made it easier for Russia’s army to advance in the east. There are structural issues too. New brigades have been built from scratch. They performed poorly.”

As noted on this blog for the past couple of years.

Russia is winning, slowly. The Kiev regime may collapse later this year. There may be a general advance of Russian forces later in 2025.

UK demographics

White British births have fallen to a record low! New figures have revealed that White British births now make-up just 55.6 per cent of all live births in England and Wales. But at the same time, the British population is skyrocketing, with the latest reports published in the press predicting that our population will surpass 72.5 million by 2032!

The meteoric rise in population is largely being driven by mass immigration. Both legal and illegal migration into Britain are now at an all-time high and the last up-to-date figures we released show that net migration has reached over 900,000 per year. This is shocking in itself, as that is more people than live in the city of Manchester!
