My council has just announced plans to reduce waste collections to once every 3 weeks. All households will be allowed just 3 black bags per collection, one per week. This is to achieve new Climate Change targets from the Welsh Government.
I'm sure that will stop climate change🤡

About a fifth of the bags required by most households, even small ones.
“Climate change” has become, like “Covid” and, pre-1945, “the War”, an excuse for local bureaucrats, and others (eg doctors, dentists) not to do their jobs properly.
So we just found out that the CIA definitively killed JFK (not that we didn’t know already), and almost no one is talking about it. In a sane society this would be the top global news story for 6 months to a year. But we don’t live in a sane society.

Naturally, I have little time for the self-describing “Left”, such as Ken Loach, but of course he is correct in what he says about Starmer. Having said that, Loach and his like still, even now, talk about the element that got rid of Corbyn as “the Right“, “the Establishment“, “the mass media“,and even “the ruling class“, while not once talking about the Jews, or Zionists, or even the baleful influence of the Israeli state, as seen so clearly in the Shai Masot case, except insofar as he mentions that many Jews who were pro-Corbyn have actually been expelled by Starmer.

There it is— White Genocide. Admittedly, not in the sense of non-whites directly killing white European people in large numbers (except in South Africa), but in a far more cunning way, or ways. Promotion of cannabis abuse, promotion of LGBTQXYZ, promotion of extreme feminism (most of the writers favouring which are— wait for it— Jewish women), promotion of mass immigration and migration-invasion into Europe. 90% or more of all of that is led by, and/or funded by, Jews and/or Jewish interests.
“Saatchi arrived at Gambler in a green Bentley and, according to Freedman, was immediately impressed by (and then bought) Hirst’s first major “animal” installation, A Thousand Years, consisting of a large glass case containing maggots and flies feeding off a rotting cow’s head.[1] (The installation was later a notable feature of the Sensation exhibition.) At this early stage, Freedman was financing the production of Hirst’s vitrines, and has commented that not many people attended these early shows, including Freeze.
In 1994, Freedman toured the US with Tracey Emin, driving in a Cadillac from San Francisco to New York.” [Wikipedia].
“Freedman said one of the [Tracey Emin] show’s themes was:the artist as a subject, and (to) explore the relationship between the art on the wall and its creator, to make the whole thing more humanistic. And in there somewhere there is the beginnings of a thesis on the relationship and similarities between madness and modernism, for example, defiance of authority, nihilism, examples of extreme relativism, strange transformations of the self, irrationality, and things like that.” [Wikipedia]
A 1930s German National Socialist would recognize very readily the all-too-typical themes of decay, decadence, perversion of the natural order etc.
[Saatchi Gallery]
Incidentally, “Emin was born in Croydon, a district of south London, to an English mother of Romanichal descent[18] and a Turkish Cypriot father.” [Wikipedia]. She is non-European, despite Wikipedia weaselling about her mother, who was apparently not English but a “Romanichal” (gypsy).
Tracey Emin is now herself “worth” millions; Damien Hirst, hundreds of millions.
Compare that to the many great and genuine artists who lived and died penniless.

The SNP is a joke “national” party, System through and through. “Holocaust”, “Covid”, and other nonsense propaganda parrotted at every opportunity, non-whites as leading figures (and now Leader itself), and a would-be tyranny in the making.
Scotland, despite its global cultural reach, is a small nation, most of the people of which oppose fake “Independence”.
I should hope —and I certainly think— that the SNP reached its high-water mark a few years ago, and will now gradually decline, but that will not happen until the voters are given a suitable alternative.

The poll does show how most of the “sheeple” want to be subjects of a (however fake) “caring/sharing” police state, at heart. I suppose that that came out during the “panicdemic”.
If the present Government were both willing and able to stop not only the cross-Channel migration-invasion but also general and continuing mass immigration, that would be a game-changer. However, since all System parties are supportive of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, that is very unlikely to happen.
Having said that, if the cross-Channel invasion on its own could be halted, so that there were no longer picture and clips of film showing invaders disembarking from boats, that might be enough to convince many voters to vote Con rather than Lab. Maybe.
If that were to happen, Poland must be suspended from NATO before a third major European (and perhaps world) war is triggered. Poland was the trigger for WW2. Most people do not want WW3.

🗓 Acting in violation of international law & supported by its allies, the US launched the Iraq invasion on March 20, 2003.

Thinking strategically, China and Russia together stack up fairly well against the USA. Both strategic nuclear powers, both with large armed forces, both with large populations (in China’s case, huge), both with geographically large state territories, both economically strong in different ways.
Were there to be a nuclear war involving all three (and leaving aside what might be left of this world if that were to happen), I would bet on a recovery in both China and Russia long before any such in the USA. As Hitler said (simplistically but truthfully all the same) the USA is “half-judaized and half-negrified“.
The aftermath of any large-scale devastation in the USA would be social collapse and social/racial war. That happened after Hurricane Katrina, a localized problem. How much more then after a nuclear attack?

Until recently, Russian people did not think of Ukraine, or Belorussia (now Belarus), or the Baltic states (the “pribaltika“), or other areas such as Kazakhstan (where I myself once lived for a year) as “foreign“, but rather as (during Soviet times) part of the same country as Russia, and/or as (since 1991) “the near-abroad“.
Western civilizations are only built by Westernkind. Nonwhites do not build Western civilizations whether they're born in them or not. Western civilizations only exist because White people exist.
It goes further than that. Non-whites not only could never build our white European culture and civilization, nor its American, Australasian and other offshoots, but also are unable even to maintain what our peoples have already built.
That is the point of importance at present, as our white European and European-origined countries are swamped by non-whites. As the proportion of non-whites in the population increases, the level of the culture and civilization not only will not rise, but will start to fall; disastrously so.
You can see that everywhere now: in the UK, in Scandinavia, in the USA etc.

The Israelis covered up much of that, and spread the largely fake “holocaust” farrago around the world to create sympathy for the Jews in Israel and elsewhere. Now the ingrained evil is coming out very obviously, to such an extent that even some Jews (Sanders being one) cannot bear what is happening.

Emily Thornberry, aka “Lady Nugee”, a porcine freeloader who has a property portfolio (with her part-Jew husband) worth £5-10 Million, and who “earns” money from renting out houses etc, in addition to the MP salary, the generous Parliamentary expenses etc.
Emily Thornberry personifies much of the problem people have with Starmer-Labour. Not just the Jewish and Israeli connections, but the overall impression (I think accurate) that so many of these Labour MPs are people not far distant in lifestyle, money, and views from the “Conservative” MPs they claim to “oppose”.
cf. Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, Jess Phillips etc.
In fact, or in my opinion, the only reason Emily Thornberry joined Labour in the first place is because she had a massive chip on her shoulder from her father having abandoned his wife (her mother) and Emily Thornberry herself, and the mother and daughter then having had to live for some years in a council house (and in what is generally an affluent town, Guildford , in Surrey, which must have stung even more). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Thornberry#Early_life.
I think that that mixture of snobbery, reverse snobbery, chip-on-shoulder resentment, and hypocrisy comes out in her pronouncements at times, such as her notorious “white van man” and “St. George’s flag” comments.
Like many people, I want the Conservative Party to be annihilated, certainly electorally (it’s a start, anyway) but, in our rigged binary electoral system, that does mean a massive Labour landslide, an “elected” Starmer-Labour dictatorship that might make that of Blair-Brown look mild.
There is no way out of this. We, the British people, have to grasp the nettle. The Conservative Party, destroyed, will lead, eventually, to the destruction also of the Labour Party, perhaps via the uprising of a new social-national party not yet in existence.
I had thought that a hung Parliament might be the best result in 2024 (if that is when the next general election comes), but now I think that the only way is to kill off 90% of the Conservative Party seats, even if at the expense of a huge Labour Party majority in the Commons.
That might also lead to extra-Parliamentary action.

With time, especially in view of the spike of Russophobia in the West last year, it has become apparent that the #Salisbury events were just a trial run for a more systematic information and psychological operations campaign aimed at demonising Russia.
Quelle surprise. Still, were the Americans to have concluded that the release had been deliberate, that would have left the USA (and UK etc) with two questions: “why?“, and “how to respond?“. China is too large, too populous, and too powerful to be impacted by either economic or military sanctions, so it is more diplomatic to conclude, officially, that any “Covid” release was “a terrible accident“…
“Vladimir Putin is ‘terribly scared’ as he marks the first anniversary of his invasion of Ukraine, says an ex-Russian secret services general.
The Russian dictator has badly misread the West’s resolve to stand up to him, and did not realise his army’s incompetence, according to the former chief of the Moscow division of the FSB.“
The time will come, and [in Russia] we will see empty shelves, goods shortages, people impoverishment, and technological backwardness in all areas.
Savostyanov predicts that Russia now faces a bleak future. If Putin somehow succeeds in Ukraine he would enact a repressive crackdown.
His angry inner circle ‘which has lost everything accumulated over 20 years’ would need to be eliminated.
Despite Putin’s desperation, Savostyanov rated the chances of Putin using his nuclear arsenal as slight. ‘I can say no more than one per cent that Putin will decide to carry out the nuclear threat,’ he said.
This could lead to breakaway attempts by some regions, he said.
‘As the federal budget is reduced, subsidies will be reduced, respectively, in the regions…., and they will say: ‘Why do we need Moscow?’
He forecast an attempt to bring to power a figure who ‘will be able to keep the situation under control and, on the other, start reforms’.
[Daily Mail]
I suppose that Savostyanov assesses the use of the nuclear arsenal as “one percent” mainly because there is no “big red button” to be pushed by Putin; the missiles can only be launched by a series of protocols involving Putin, the Strategic Rocket Forces (in Russia, separate from other arms: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Rocket_Forces) and both the navy and aerospace commands as well as the relevant directorate(s) of the FSB (security service) which last (if the protocols are the same as in Soviet days) control parts of the launch codes.
As I blogged a year ago, it should never have been like this— the invasion should have been swift, overwhelming, and near-bloodless, a Blitzkrieg for the sake of mercy, minimizing harm to the Ukrainian civilians and their homes (and infrastructure).
All the same, the war in Ukraine is one which Russia now has to win, bitter though any victory will be— for both sides in the conflict.
Factors which may help Russia to victory include its much larger population, and so its larger potential recruit pool; its unused weapons of enormous destructiveness, both conventional and nuclear; the fact that Russia’s size and dispersed large population mean that Russia itself cannot be successfully invaded and occupied (unless, arguably, by future Chinese forces); the fact that Russia is still a functioning economy (unlike Ukraine) and with enormous reserves of valuable hydrocarbons; finally, the fact that the forces of the Kiev regime may now be running out of arms and ammunition, as well as manpower.
If that were to happen, and the Russian Federation split into a number of pieces (perhaps as many as a dozen), the Chinese would find it easy to pick up the pieces, not by war but by —mainly— slow osmosis. The former Soviet Far East, Eastern Siberia, maybe as far west as the Urals.
It may be that a terrible choice lies before Putin.
Take a look at that crime report. Not untypical of many seen these days, especially in the Daily Mail and, as here, Daily Mirror.
The narrative confused generally, and in its details; the second defendant sentenced to, in one paragraph, “four-and-a-half years” but, in another, “four years“; unnecessary adjectives and adverbs put in almost randomly (“twisted“, “sick“, “bizarrely” etc); ages of the defendants at some of the relevant times not printed, making the report less informative than it could have been; also, “Unbelievably, her and Jarvis told officers that she was in fact Carol“.
“Her and Jarvis“?!
Enough. That report was, according to the byline, written by not one but two Daily Mirror “journalists”, named as Lauren Davidson and Joe Smith.
The best newspaper now, from the point of view of literacy, seems to be the Guardian.
Strange that, now that so many newspaper scribblers have degrees or diplomas in journalism, their product has become so unprofessional. In my opinion, the same, mutatis mutandis, can be said of barristers now (and in fact since the 1980s/1990s). As late as the mid-1970s, barristers did not even need a degree to be Called, though in fact most had attended university. Is the Bar better now? I think not.

Well, a poor result this week, both for me and for political journalist John Rentoul— we both scored only 3/10. I did get the answers to questions 3, 4, and 9, arguably the easiest ones. John Rentoul got the same questions right that I got right.
I thought that I had question 1 nailed with “boudin“, but (I think) it turns out that that is a different kind of sausage. Not sure. If “boudin“ is the right answer, then I scored 4/10. [update: just saw the official answers, and the right answer for that question is not boudin, so a mere 3/10 it is, one of my worst results on this weekly quiz].
Now it turns out that the kind of tendentious idiots they employ have compiled a list of books, films, and TV series which “might interest the [so-called] “far-right”:
“Some of Britain’s most popular sitcoms and greatest works of literature were flagged as potential signs of far-Right extremism by a counter-terror programme.
The flagship Prevent scheme, recently the subject of a scathing audit, singled out comedies Yes Minister and The Thick Of It, the 1955 epic war film The Dam Busters, and even The Complete Works Of William Shakespeare as possible red flags of extremism.
The taxpayer-funded document included references to The Lord Of The Rings by JRR Tolkien, Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, Joseph Conrad’s The Secret Agent, 1984 by George Orwell and the poems of GK Chesterton. It also referenced films including The Bridge On The River Kwai, The Great Escape and Zulu.
Works by some of the world’s greatest writers were included as examples of warning signs of potential extremism, including Shakespeare, Chaucer, Milton, Tennyson, Kipling and Edmund Burke.
It almost seems like a joke.
The report even highlighted the BBC’s 1990s political thriller House Of Cards, John le Carre’s seminal spy trilogy Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and Sharpe, the ITV drama set in the Napoleonic wars.
Inexplicably, it said the BBC’s Great British Railway Journeys, presented by former Conservative minister Michael Portillo, was of interest to the far-Right.
Historian and broadcaster Andrew Roberts said: ‘This is truly extraordinary. This is the reading list of anyone who wants a civilised, liberal, cultured education.
Author Douglas Murray obtained the full list and discovered that one of his books had been given a red flag by Prevent.
Mr Murray wrote in The Spectator magazine: ‘A number of books are singled out, the possession or reading of which could point to severe wrongthink and therefore potential radicalisation… It seems that RICU is so far off-track that it believes that books identifying the problem that it was itself set up to tackle are in fact a part of the problem.’ He concluded that RICU’s work was ‘pathetic’ and called for ‘accountability’ for its errors and ‘sackings by the score’.
The list has emerged following a major review into the Prevent scheme by William Shawcross.
His report, published earlier this month, exposed serious failings in Prevent, warning that it applies a ‘double standard’ to Islamist and far-Right threats. The £49million-a-year scheme had prioritised countering far-Right activity above tackling the prime Islamist threat, it added.
The report said Prevent had scrutinised Right-wing material which ‘falls well short of the extremism threshold altogether’.“
[Daily Mail]
I should be prepared to bet that the mix of staff at “Prevent” includes dim types harvested from police and military “intelligence” rejects or retirees, probably quite a few embittered Asians or half-castes of the Neil Basu type and, very likely, Jews.
In fact, I should also be surprised were the Jew-Zionist element not very prominent or influential in all this, whether directly employed by “Prevent” or not. The notorious Jew-Zionist snoop organizations etc.
My blog post about this “Prevent” nonsense was written almost 5 years ago. Looks like I have been proven right again, if I say so myself…
A few cartoons which cover parts of the problem(s).
“Earlier this month, a migrant from Moldova who had arrived in Ireland in September was charged with sexually assaulting a girl in Ballymun, another working-class area of Dublin. At his bail hearing, the court heard he had suffered head injuries after being confronted by up to 40 ‘vigilantes’ before police arrived to arrest him.”
[Daily Mail]
In the immortal line of Windsor Davies, “oh dear…how sad…never mind...”
“Last month, there were two ugly incidents in Finglas, a working-class district of the city, after rumours spread on social media that a local girl had been raped by a man who had recently arrived in the country.
An angry mob of about 200 surrounded a police station where the suspect was allegedly being held, with a ringleader telling the crowd: ‘The only way to f*****g deal with these c***s is burn them out of the f*****g place.‘”
[Daily Mail]
“Byzantine planning laws mean that only about 25,000 homes are being built each year, and around 11,500 Irish people are classified as homeless.
One of them, George Sturdy, whom I met on a protest march in Dublin this week, told how he was living in a shared hotel room rented by the government, having been evicted from a static caravan.
‘I’ve been on a waiting list for a council home for six years, and know people who have been waiting for almost 20 years. There’s a crisis with homes for Irish people, and you see them throwing open doors. What do you expect people like me to think?’“
[Daily Mail]
The conspiracy is transnational, and operates in Ireland, in the UK, in Germany, and all over Europe. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan. Google it.
“Sutherland strongly advocated unrestricted immigration into the EU… multiculturalism is both inevitable and desirable…”the European Union, in my view, should be doing its best to undermine” any “sense of our homogeneity and difference from others...”
As I said, a truly major conspirator and enemy of Europe’s future.
Sutherland, totally tied-in with the transnational conspiracy (UN, WEF, GATT, WTO, Bilderberg, Trilateral Commission etc), tweeted a couple of times against me when I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews had me expelled in 2018), but he died not long after that.
I usually say “de mortuis nihil nisi bonum” (“Of the dead, [say] nothing if not good“), but in his case, and the case of any like him, good riddance.
[“Get down there where you wanted to send me, you unclean spirit!“]
Part of the reason is simply that there are relatively few “working-class” jobs now. As blogged previously, in the UK, the old “proletariat” has been replaced —to a large extent— by both the “precariat” (people in unstable, shifting employment, and with periods of unemployment), and/or by a contemporary form of “lumpenproletariat” (the raceless, cultureless masses whose world revolves around trash TV, trash “music”, “selfies”, drugs, drink, cars, and State benefits).
Some of what Monbiot sometimes says is sometimes right, but here we see his ingrained, genetically-determined (?) Jewish urbanism outweigh his learned environmentalism, arguably.
Monbiot is in fact only half-Jewish.
Not that I (as supposed “far right” “extremist”) am on the side of farmers at all times, right or wrong. Far too many (in the UK) are just greedy grabbers and/or freeloaders (taking endless subsidies or other State payments).
However, there is (as in the Netherlands) a push now by sinister forces to destroy the countryside for entirely spurious environmental reasons; in reality, just another aspect of the attack by alien forces on the white Northern European people (yet another aspect being the push to get blacks and browns visiting the countryside and/or relocating from cities to rural areas).
The same people who cry everyday about losing Freedom of Movement in the EU are totally cool with being locked in their little zone of the 15 minute city.
Reading that, though, and seeing the reference to Arsene Wenger (a football manager), it once again strikes me how odd it is that (soccer) football has become the sine qua non for the UK middle classes.
It started in the 1990s, I think, maybe in the Blair years of the late 1990s. Now it is ubiquitous. Every politician has to at least pretend to “support” a football team, and you see both men and women, even professional men and women, not only “supporting” some team or other, but (apparently) genuinely and indeed passionately so.
It makes me wonder whether it is a substitute for ideas, ideology, or political partisanship, now that all the System parties are almost identical in policy terms and personnel, and now that any other ideological position apart from “mainstream” LibLabCon is deemed “extreme” (and probably “antisemitic”).
My big weekend read for @HuffPostUK : Alarm is spreading over the tight grip Keir Starmer's office has over the selection of Labour's general election candidateshttps://t.co/pfDr1MQwGp
It makes me laugh that scribblers and MPs write much about the almost meaningless “right/left” labels, and occasionally about “antisemitism” (always from the viewpoint that it is, supposedly, “bad”), but rarely directly about the Jewish influence that now more than influences (put shortly, controls) the two main System parties.
I know what I would like to do to most of the MPs of both main System parties, and it would not be to vote for them.
NEW polling in Ukraine 🇺🇦 on the circumstances in which Ukrainians would support a ceasefire.
Key point: 80% of Ukrainians find a ceasefire in which Russia keeps a presence in the Crimea unacceptable.
Well, there it is. In this case political power certainly does come out of the barrel of a gun…
Not that the matter will ever be put to the actual Ukrainian people (beyond opinion polling). The regime of the Jew dictator Zelensky has shut down opposition parties, arrested the leaders and supporters of the same, and also banned trade unions and other organizations. His government may be, and is, a shambolic, kleptocratic mess, but when it comes to repressing political dissent it is efficient enough.
Fantastic story of "bike shedding": how corporate decision-makers focus on trivial issues, that they know lots about, rather than more important but complex issues issues
That of course is the problem faced by political leaders of any kind. They cannot be expert in all the fields over which their imprimatur is decisive, so it comes down to which “experts” or “specialists” they trust, unless their decisions are to be completely arbitrary in nature.
A political leader must inevitably always be a generalist, though he (or she) may be expert in one or two fields (eg Margaret Thatcher, a chemist who was also a tax barrister). However, what about all the other areas of policy, such as education, railways, military hardware, grand strategy, waste disposal and the general environment, intelligence and security etc?
You see all of that in the decisions of Adolf Hitler, among many others.
Hitler was, or became, fairly expert in some areas of military policy and strategy, and also knew much about art, architecture, and more academic fields such as history, religion and philosophy. In some other areas of policy or knowledge, he knew not much, yet had to decide upon them, a problem made worse by the structural constraints of the National Socialist state, meaning fuhrerprinzip or autocracy. The leader had to decide.
These factors affect the UK as well, for example at present. We have people who are pretty ignorant at the top (e.g. the recent Prime Ministers), and yet they have to decide high policy affecting diverse matters such as foreign policy, military and NHS procurement, law and order, freedom of expression, intelligence and security, transport etc.
There is no one answer, but having MPs, ministers, and prime ministers who are not such stupid deadheads as “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng), Therese Coffey etc would help.

The Jews have been screeching about Roald Dahl for years, mainly because he recognized what Jews are like even while (in my view wrongly) saying also that Adolf Hitler was “a stinker” (Dahl also said that he was right about the Jews and their behaviour).
I doubt, though, that Toby Young’s “Free Speech Union” will mention the fact that the Jews are behind the attack on Roald Dahl. The “FSU” has never said a word to protest expressly against the Jew-Zionist attacks on free speech in the UK and elsewhere; neither has it said a word in defence of those persecuted by Jew-Zionist orgs which have persistently made false accusations to Twitter, Facebook, employers, professional and regulatory organizations, police etc; see my own experience (of several), dating back about 18 months: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2022/01/15/diary-blog-15-january-2022-including-an-outline-of-the-failure-of-the-latest-jew-zionist-attempt-to-prosecute-me/.

“A decade of darkness, below-freezing temperatures and starvation for BILLIONS: The potential horrors of what a nuclear winter would really be like – as scientists call for ‘urgent’ public education.
While it sounds very much like a fictional scenario, an expert describes a nuclear winter as a real and ‘horribly contemporary’ risk due to Russia‘s war on Ukraine.
The research also gauged support in the UK and US for western retaliation in the event of a nuclear blast, which could be the difference between a one-off nuclear attack and an ongoing series of attacks resulting in nuclear winter.
Ingram found there was ‘a strong reluctance’ to support nuclear retaliation in response to [a] fictional Russian nuclear attack on Ukraine.
Out of all 3,000 people in the US and UK, fewer than one in five people – 19.4 per cent – surveyed supported retaliation.
Next, half of the participants in each country were shown infographics of nuclear winter before they read fictional news of nuclear strikes, while the other half were not (the control group).
Unsurprisingly, the stark infographics had the effect of putting people off retaliation.
Support for nuclear retaliation was lower by 16 per cent in the US and 13 per cent in the UK among participants shown the ‘nuclear winter’ infographics than among the control group.
‘Our research showed that when the public is aware of the global risks they are less likely to support nuclear retaliation,’ Ingram told MailOnline.“

…and for what?
So that a fake and failed “state” called Ukraine, that did not even exist as a state at any point before 1991, and which is basically a Jew-ruled kleptocracy and dictatorship, completely shambolic, can continue to fight a war which, if push comes to shove, it cannot win.
This is not our (UK’s, USA’s, France’s, Germany’s) war. Time to stop supplying money and weapons to the Kiev regime.

Ha. Reminds me of when I was a superannuated Bar pupil in 1992, and we had a defendant, a big black man with an odd short haircut. He was a TV licence enforcement “officer”, and was accused at Wood Green Crown Court of blackmail and extortion, and a few other things (he was acquitted on all charges, in the end).
That case stuck with me (I was little more than a spectator) because the Indian Muslim solicitor said, angrily, after an altercation with his client, “why should I take that from a nigger with a horn in his head?” (!) and also because my pupilmaster (barrister notionally supervising me as pupil) had to make formal complaint to the judge that the alleged victim in the case had hired a number of black magic African women to intimidate the defendant (they were huge and evil-looking, and hung around the public waiting area, staring fixedly at the defendant when he was there; after the complaint, they were told by the court staff to get lost, in effect).

I had quite forgotten that one-time rock “music” groupie, pitifully poor MP-for-5-minutes, and hard-core drug abuser, Louise Mensch, even existed, but there she still sits on Twitter, with her 269,000 “followers”, still trumpeting the same kind of Jewish/Israel/NWO propaganda as she has for a decade or more. She herself admitted that her hard drug abuse “messed with her brain“. Her exact words were “My mind is messed up after taking hard drugs.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Mensch.
Follower numbers on Twitter mean little, of course. Louise Mensch may have 269,000 Twitter “followers” (on paper), but that tweet I featured above, for example, tweeted more than a day ago, has only been seen by 304 people (as at present time of writing), only been “liked” by 14 people, and only been retweeted by 1 person. Not one hundred thousand, not one thousand, but just one individual.
[Louise Mensch smoking drugs years ago]
Actually, looking even at the most-seen tweets of Louise Mensch, which have been seen by several thousand people (because she tends to tag in well-known or famous people such as Elon Musk, Biden etc), the number of “likes” and retweets is small, often a mere handful.
Even her Jew husband got rid of her in the end. I have no idea how much it cost him in alimony but whatever it was, I have no doubt that it was cheap at the price.

Something I had not seen before today. Rather underwhelming. Above all, the activities of our intelligence, counter-intelligence, and security people rather miss the main point— the principal dangers to the UK come not from North Korean missiles, Chinese or Russian spies etc, but from internal decadence and events. Mass immigration. Births to non-whites with UK residency and/or nationality. The infiltration into politics, law, the msm and, indeed, security and intelligence agencies by Jews and/or Israeli agents. The decadence promoted by TV and other msm, particularly the BBC. The general decadence of British society.
Indeed, it could well be said that the UK is now little more than a colony of the USA anyway— the one-sided extradition treaty, the American bases on UK soil (often nominally “RAF bases”), the huge influence of American-funded (and often staffed) “think-tanks” such as the IEA, the de facto US control or power of veto of the UK “independent” nuclear deterrent, and so on.

As blogged previously, I do not necessarily oppose “Independence” for Scotland, but it seems that many Scots are adamantly opposed, and that either there is no majority for it or only a very small majority.
I suspect that many Scots think “what Independence?” when Scotland would probably still be in NATO (i.e. under de facto American/NWO control), still in the EU (i.e.under EU control), still subject to the diktats of international finance-capitalism, and overall almost certainly poorer per capita.
Still, if a significant majority of the Scots were to clamour for “Independence”, I would say “so go…“, but it really would have to be 60% at a bare minimum; in reality, to make it work, 75% or more.
Speaking personally, for me the SNP is fake “nationalism”, having little to do with race and culture.
I do not think that the SNP will fall back to where it was before 2015. It has an electoral niche, which is a kind of social-democracy in policy terms, but underpinned by the faux-“nationalism” which sets it apart, superficially, from the other System parties “up there” (I am on the southern coast of England). The SNP of course is a System party. You only have to look at the lip-service it pays to the Jewish lobby/Israel lobby.
The SNP has also been even more repressive in terms of free speech than the Westminster regimes of recent years; Police Scotland has embraced its Poundland Stasi role with unseemly alacrity.
I imagine that many Scots, perhaps a majority, will prefer to stick with the UK rather than become poorer outside it. Whisky, tourism, and financial services cannot provide income enough to support an “independent” Scottish state, and North Sea oil/gas, even if partly under control of Edinburgh, is (arguably) a declining or depreciating asset, especially if supposedly “green” policies are pursued.
In terms of Westminster governments, though, the 59 Scottish seats are important. Without them, the UK Labour Party will find it difficult to form a government (even with SNP support), unless the presently-forecast huge landslide actually happens; such a landslide may happen this year or next but, if so, will not be repeated.

The trigger for the resignation may have been the SNP’s crazed promotion of the trans nonsense, but Sturgeon was “too big for her boots” in other ways as well, pretending that she was (sort-of) a world statesman and leader of a (sort-of) state.
Nicola Sturgeon has often been compared (approvingly or not) to the New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, who resigned not long ago. A lazy comparison though, arguably; after all, New Zealand is over 103,000 square miles in area, has over 5,000,000 people, and is a recognized state.
Scotland, though also having over 5,000,000 people, is only 30,000 square miles in area and, though a distinct country historically and to some extent culturally, is not a state, and has not been since 1707.
There is, though, no reason why Scotland cannot be a state again, so long as its people are willing to pay the price in various ways. It is clear, surely, that about half are not.
She tried to gaslight women into accepting less rights – she forced kids to wear masks for months and months longer than the rest of Britain – she behaved like a dictator during covid

We are sliding towards a situation in which the Western powers may find themselves in direct conflict, meaning war, with Russia. I have blogged about the madness of that, which is being driven mainly by secret cabals and ruling circles in the West. The Jewish element is prominent, as it was before other senseless (but for “certain types” very profitable) wars, such as the First and Second World Wars.
Let us pray that the next secretly-planned war does not happen. I want to examine briefly what would happen later, if any such conflict were to happen.
Were a truly major war to happen between the NWO powers and Russia, if that war went nuclear and no matter who might claim “victory”, the fact is that that would leave China in a position of world supremacy.
It might be said that China today is a massive regional military power, but already a world economic superpower. That position mirrors that of the USA between the end of the American Civil War (1864) and the entry of the USA into the Second World War in 1941 (some may argue earlier, when the USA entered the First World War in 1917, but I prefer 1941).
Until 1941, the American economic leadership of the world had not been translated into military reach worldwide. China is now in a similar position.
True, the American economy is still —arguably— in first place, if not exactly triumphant but, before the Second World War, the European economies also held sway over much of the world, exercising that power via the European empires— British, French, Dutch, and the smaller ones: Italian, Spanish etc, the German Empire having been broken up and given to others after the post-1918 Versailles Conference.
In 1939, the USA was the challenger or upstart power, but today its own world power is challenged, not by Russia but by China, which was, until the fall of socialism in 1989, of relatively little importance.
Incidentally, the fall of socialism happened in China too, though it was disguised in form. The form remained, but the content changed.
Now look at China! Its military and naval power is still regional rather than that of a true superpower, but for how long?
If there is a war between Russia and the Western powers, China will pick up the pieces, first of all in Russia.
Russia has had a demographic problem for decades, even before the fall of socialism in 1989 (officially, in Russia, 1991). Average death of men before age 60, women somewhat later and, together with that, the very low birthrate.
Chinese people have been gradually infiltrating into the former Soviet Far East and Eastern Siberia for over 30 years; traders, farmers etc. Even now, the borders of Russia are secure not through Russian power but because China prefers not to use its power. Not yet, that is.
In Western Europe and including the UK, the Chinese influence becomes ever stronger, inflated by the mass immigration that we have seen and continue to see. The “Boris”-idiot government invited 5 million Hong Kong Chinese to settle in the UK. That dwarfs the cross-Channel migration-invasion.
It might be argued that Chinese immigrants (especially from Hong Kong) are “useful” as opposed to the Albanians, Somalis and Afghans etc coming across the Channel in small boats. Perhaps so; little or no argument on that, but such vast numbers as in the projected Hong Kong influx have an influence on society which cannot be denied.
I want the European peoples to join with the Russian people to form the foundation for a later super-race. That cannot happen easily if Europe and Russia are flooded with other peoples, whether the blacks and browns now flooding Europe, or an even more enormous Chinese influx.
Having said that, one could perhaps see some advantages to an overall Chinese rule over Russia and Europe, if limited in time especially. The Jew-Zionist influence would be cut back or destroyed, for one thing. Also, there would be a curtailing of American influence generally across Europe. The Chinese could not rule directly over all of Eurasia; they would have to appoint suitable national satraps. Perhaps here is where— or rather how— social-nationalism can finally rise up again over Europe.
Russia was ruled by its own Imperial power, then by (mainly Jew-engendered) Sovietism. Those are now both now merely passages in Russian and world history. Russia was forced to its knees in the 1990s, and “Putinism” is quite clearly merely (and like Yelstsin’s shambolic, corrupt, and largely Jewish-owned society of the 1990s) a transitional phase.
Look at the embarrassing and bloody fiasco in Ukraine, a product of the ill-discipline, corruption, and disorder in, not only the Russian Army and GRU, but in Russian society itself.
Ukraine should have and could have been taken over swiftly, and almost bloodlessly.
The worm in Russian society, eating it from within, is not new. It has existed for hundreds of years. It existed within Sovietism, and had destroyed all but the shell of that by the late 1970s. The Jewish aspect was prominent in that, but far from the only matter of importance.
A multiform decadence. Alcohol was also a large part of the problem. Even Andropov and (a very different type) Gorbachev were helpless to reform the Soviet Union, meaning Soviet society. The rot had gone too far even for the lash to be effective, were it even capable of being used by a decadent political establishment.
Ideological emptiness also lies at the heart of the Russian problem as it now is. Old-style religious faith and loyalty to Tsar (“Orthodoxy, Autocracy, Nationality“), and Marxism-Leninism too, are gone forever. Mere Putin-style faux-nationalism can replace neither.
I have no faith that Russia could resist Chinese takeover; I wish I had. However, China will no doubt wait until the NATO/NWO-Russia conflict plays out, then probably just gradually take over, like an incoming tide.
Only the Aryan can give life. Only European people have the inbuilt, inherent, ability to mutate over time into a new and more advanced race-form. God grant that we find the way, whatever happens on the military-political front.
Both either idiots or tricksters. Food for 11p (“Jack Monroe”)? Nonsense. Food for 30p (Lee Anderson)? Also nonsense. Even a slice of toast and a can of cheap sardines costs nearly a pound. This race-to-the-bottom has to end.

Anonymous accounts? The majority that criticise him link to right-wing, fascist accounts? This is utter bollocks. Just out-and-out lies. The man is a dangerous zealot. Why does The Guardian still employ him?
I think that this desperate clutching at straws, or at men and women of straw, is a symptom of the fact that old-style socialism died in and after 1989, and so many many people have latched onto these pathetic examples of pseudo-socialist fake “protest” etc: Owen Jones, “Jack Monroe”, Julia Grace Patterson, Billy Bragg etc.
The main “grifters” make a living out of a certain “constituency” (quite directly— “Jack Monroe”, Owen Jones, and the Julia Grace Patterson creature all have Patreon, PayPal, and other donation-sources), but in the absence of real socialism (of any kind) they and their followers have attached themselves to one fake “cause” after another: “Black Lives Matter”, “Remain/Rejoin” (EU, a finance-capitalist bloc), “LGBTQXYZ”, “Ukraine”, “Covid” (the facemask nonsense etc), “refugees welcome”, Greta Nut and the other similar cretins.
Their natural home of the past, the Labour Party, has become very obviously (with the Conservative Party) just the other side of the same coin. They are politically homeless, and have no real ideology. Which is why they obsess about “deplatforming” those whose ideas they dislike. They cannot see that they have become both politically and socially irrelevant, an historical cul-de-sac.
Incidentally, the self-describing “Left” should note the words below:

If the Con Party cannot find a way of being (seeming) more credible soon, they’re toast.

Not really. There are people right across the political spectrum, left and right, who recognise Jack Monroe for the narcissistic hustler that she is. It's the strangest coalition I've ever seen on here!
If someone entirely opposed to me says “the sun is shining” and I look for myself and see that the sun is shining, then I agree— the sun is shining.
She's been exposed as a liar and there are lots of people who want their Patreon money back so she's gone into hiding for a while. She's done it before and she'll be back before long.
That first tweeter, “@DebbyHallett_LD” is probably fairly typical of many of those that are favourable to “Jack Monroe”: retired, a LibDem councillor, probably comfortably-off (living, as she does, in the generally affluent Vale of White Horse, Oxfordshire).
Well-meaning, no doubt, but more or less asleep. What’s the betting that she also supports the migration-invasion, “Black Lives Matter”, wearing facemasks, and “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime)?

I have blogged previously about that Kafka-esque “service”, HMRC. ‘Nuff said, and thankfully I have not had any need to engage with that shambles for a decade or more now.
To be fair to her, that Debby Hallett tweeter does seem to be very concerned about the English countryside, and Nature, and is helping via her local council work. It is all too easy not to see what positive sides people have.
Call me an old cynic, but the ex-Labour MP ends up in court for fake expenses? Of £30k? And is outed for coke? Presumably, if he was across the aisle and it was £30 million, or billion, he'd be off on a yacht or on the back benches?#ToryCorruptionhttps://t.co/XQ1eFkPlDx

Women submit to their bosses and no one bats an eye. But the moment a wife submits to her husband, it’s “oppression” or “slavery”.
Refers in part to a book, an anti-white diatribe called White Women.
Incidentally, I took the trouble to look up the book in question. It was published a couple of months ago, and presently ranks at about 19,000 in the Amazon bestsellers list. Using the Amazon Book Sales Calculator, that implies sales of only about 200 books worldwide per month. Not very many, but I bet that the “wokes” and the “you-know-whos” (((you know whos))) are getting it into the libraries of schools, colleges, and universities, mainly in the USA. More drip-drip anti-white poison.

I've been looking at Monroe's recipes for a long time now. Some of them are ridiculous and no one in poverty that I've ever known would waste 15 ingredients and £1 from their paygo meter to cook them.
I can only conclude her recipes are for comfortable poverty tourists.
To be clear… I'm all for small business (an owner myself) but to think that someone should have to live in poverty so that your business can exist is… damn… I don't even have words for it.

Most horse racing in England does not involve cruelty these days. There have been many advances in the care and welfare of horses over the years, though minor improvements are still necessary. Rather disturbing that so many seem to think that such a traditional part of British and especially English life should be banned.
‘If they carry on like this they’re just going to lose the election’
Part-Jew nasty little blot, George Osborne, talking about how great is HS2, and how good things such as the motorway system have been. There is a contrary view.
I myself remember, when aged about 21 (1976-77), the sections of the M25 in Surrey still largely unbuilt; at that time, I lived near the top of Reigate Hill, very easy walking distance from what is now the roundabout/interchange at Junction 8 of the M25. The M25 running east from there was nearly finished, but the bit running west was still being constructed.
Indeed, as a child (early/mid 1960s), I recall an England almost entirely devoid of motorway. In many respects it was better that way, though I concede that that may be regarded as a “Little Englander” or even “Luddite”, point of view.
When the motorway system was put in place, driving long distances became much easier. However, a certain character was lost, and that loss continued and deepened in the 1990s and up to the present day, made worse by the cancerous growths of new housing projects (“boxes for people”, if you like). I suppose that anyone under 40 —or even 50— would struggle to understand, though.

If they have (although I suspect they've dropped her as too much reputational risk), they'd take one quick look for "a few moments" and say she's got no chance here. Don't conflate commentary on Jack's own words with the KH case which was VERY different.
It makes me laugh how so many of the ill-informed and ignorant on Twitter believe that an action in defamation can be launched easily and with almost-guaranteed success. Few understand even the basics of defamation, or of the economics of litigation.
These secretive truth units don't just monitor disinformation – we've found they monitor, record and suppress criticism of government policies.
I love how Zahawi points out in his letter that he came to the UK fleeing persecution & speaking no English. It’s a shame people fleeing persecution now under Tory leadership don’t have the same opportunities. He’d be on a plane to Rwanda now. The utter hypocrisy of this man!
Would the British people not have been much better off without corrupt Kurdish carpetbagger Nadhim Zahawi? Some tweeters live their lives without logic.

Let us take the probably-mistaken idea that “Ukraine is winning” to the max, to the reductio ad absurdum. Let us suppose that the forces of the Kiev regime expel Russian forces from all of pre-2014 Ukrainian territory, including Crimea. What then? Does Russia, or Putin, just accept that? Is that the end? I think not.
Ukrainian forces cannot cross the borders of Russia, even marginally, without provoking not only a response from the Russian Government but also from the Russian people, who would then be “triggered”, as people now say, to defend “Holy Russia”, their native land or “rodina“.
For the first time since the incursion/invasion of 2022, the Russian Government would then enjoy almost-unqualified public support in fighting the invading forces of the Kiev regime.
It is unlikely, though, that the Kiev-regime forces can in fact expel Russian forces from Ukrainian or former Ukrainian territory. Russia has a far greater population, a functioning economy, vast economic resources, and a nuclear backstop.
The logic seems to be that either Russia prevails in the present conflict, or that it is pushed out, only to then return with far greater numbers and might within a year or two.
In the end, Russia will annex Ukraine east of the Dnieper, whatever happens in the meantime. Unless a major East-West hot war starts first.
When Jews started to flood into the then British-ruled Palestine, after the First World War, they were a small minority. In the period immediately before the Second World War, they were still a minority, but since the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel in 1948, the Jews have not only become the majority, but have gradually taken over most of the land of Palestine; by war, by terrorism, and now more by gradual encroachment supported by Israeli law and typical Jewish misuse of law.
In fact, if you include both Israeli territory and the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and Gaza, the Jewish population is not far in excess of the numbers of the Palestinian population(s), but of course the Jews control most of the levers of force and coercion. See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinians
The overall pattern has happened in muted form elsewhere. In Germany, particularly in the 1920s; also in the UK, mainly since the mid-19th Century and acceleratedly so since the 1930s. In the USA and other countries as well.
What matters is not the relative size of population(s), but rather the level of control exercised; not only over military power directly, but including that exercised over law, the legal professions, the mass media, money, and politics.

The NHS, though a good idea in principle, and even in practice (at times, perhaps often, even today), is not now providing a proper overall service. Needs root and branch reform.
The system known as “healthcare”, inc. NHS should be more intelligently linked to “adult social care” and “elderly care”, to provide a properly-working service for an ageing British population.
As for nurses, naturally I support them having a decent income, but they will —and rightly— lose much public support if they put their own financial interest (however justified) above compassion and care for helpless and suffering people.

When I lived for a little while in the Caribbean (about 22-23 years ago), I met an American naval officer on vacation with his wife. I never asked him his rank (or the name of his ship), but I presume at least a naval captain, maybe higher, in view of the fact that he commanded a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier.
A pleasant little man, who looked a bit like the Penguin in the 1960s Batman TV series, he had an air of unstressed command. Not exactly “commanding”, still less imperious or contrived; he just radiated a kind of urbane manner that conveyed that he knew that anything that he did order to be done would be done.
I asked that naval officer over a drink how on Earth he carried the responsibility of something like docking a ship of such enormous size, and he replied rather modestly that “ah, I have people to do things like that for me“…
