“…I see the question (philosophically) as one of the tension between individuality and collectivity. I blogged about this 2-3 years ago, not long after I started this blog:
https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/01/06/free-speech-individuality-v-collectivity/

If people are all identical, they need no law, no order; it is all automatic. The more “diverse” the society, the more law is necessary, the more that order has to be imposed externally, unless the individuals are of such elevation that they can order themselves as a group entity.

In practice, at the present time, we see that the UK has few characteristics of homogenous unity, or in the German term, Volksgemeinschaft. Folk-community. All the aspects of a society are, in *this* society, pulling apart “community”: race, religion, economics, politics, language, even age and sex (meaning male/female, which is fraught enough, but now there are a dozen other “possibilities”, like the Eskimos having 30 words for “snow”).“

[remarks by me, from a discussion with others on the blog about 5 years ago]

In fact, here was another reply I made to a commentator on the same day in 2019 as the above remarks, but on other topics:

“Thank you.
As to some of your points:
1. The SNP is the faux-nationalist party par excellence in the UK. Immigration fine, Scottish future population black, brown, Muslim…also fine. “Scottish” = “born in Scotland or just living there” as distinct from descended by blood. The SNP wants to decriminalize drug abuse, criminalize the “wrong” opinions etc. How cheaply the votes o the Scottish people are bought! Free prescriptions, free hospital parking etc (not that I oppose either of those), and in return give up your freedom of expression, turn your poorer people into mixed-race human material, as well as “hoes”, drug-abusers and degenerates; I noticed some time ago that Police Scotland is entirely under a Jew-Masonic thumb;
2. This did not come out of nowhere.The SNP was founded around 1930 or so, but did not get 1 MP until 1970, and only had a tiny group until 2015. However, the fault is not, in origo, in the SNP itself, but the way in which the SNP has obviously been taken over in the past decade or so. The other System parties in Scotland seem useless anyway.
3. As you say, the police have been turned, all over the UK, into something scarcely recognizable. At ground level, shouting mercenaries with H&K weapons, tattoos and stubble; at the senior level, public-relations-advised Common Purpose members, often women, full of anti-“racism” and anti-“sexism” “initiatives”.
4. Meanwhile, real crime goes almost unaddressed. I was watching a documentary about the con-man (now in prison) Ross Acklom. One lady conned by him went to Gloucestershire Police, who advised her to fill in a form online. Even when she told them that she had lost everything she owned, they were useless (she turned to an investigative journalist). They did not even send a detective to talk to her!“

In my opinion, those comments of mine (except for the name of the said con-man who was, in fact, called Mark Acklom) have held up rather well in the succeeding four and a half years, nicht wahr?

…and after he is released in a couple of years, he will still not be deported, and will continue to live here as —at best— a parasite and, more likely, as a scavenger and predator given accommodation and money via the British people.

“I grew up on a Council Estate and never once questioned my parents income, it was never a discussion.

We didn’t eat a lot of fast food because it was considered a treat, not a food group. We ate homemade meals consisting of meat, potatoes and vegetables – (which were not an optional choice). No vegetables, no dessert!!!

We grew up during a time when we mowed lawns, pulled weeds, babysat, helped neighbours with chores to be able to earn our own money. We by no means were given everything we wanted.

We went outside a lot to play, ride bikes, run with friends, play hide and seek, or went swimming. We rarely just sat inside.

Bottled water was unheard of. If we had a coke, it was in a glass bottle and we didn’t break the bottle when finished. We saved it and cashed it back in at the shops for a sweet. After school, we came home and did homework and chores, before going outside or having friends over.

We would ride our bikes for hours. We had to tell our parents where we were going, who we were going with and be home when the street lights came on! You LEARNED from your parents instead of disrespecting them and treating them as if they knew absolutely nothing. What they said was LAW and you did not question it and you had better know it! We watched what we said around our elders because we knew if we DISRESPECTED any grown-up, we would get a real telling off, it wasn’t called abuse, it was called discipline!

We held doors, carried the shopping and gave up our seat for an older person without being asked. You didn’t hear swear words on the radio in songs or TV. “Please and Thank you”, were part of our daily vocabulary!

The world we live in now is just so full of people who hate and disrespect others.

Consider Re-posting if you’re thankful for your childhood. I will never forget where I came from and only wish children nowadays had half the chance at the fun and respect for real life we grew up with! And we were never ever ever ever bored.”

Despite not having been brought up on a council estate, and occasionally being bored as a child (usually when forced to visit relatives with my parents), and never having had to do many chores (or any babysitting), I can say that much of the rest of the above statement might echo my own early-mid 1960s English childhood, when I was 5-10 years old [b.1956].

Gideon Falter, the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, and their lies

As noted yesterday, LBC is owned by a Jew-Zionist-owned company…

…but what is the BBC’s (Radio 4 Today Programme’s) excuse?

Good grief! Even David Aaronovitch is against Falter’s lies, and those of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.

Falter, as noted on the blog yesterday, is a liar, and someone indeed who has previously lied on oath in court.

Falter’s “Campaign Against Antisemitism” colleague, Stephen Silverman, who gloated from the back of the court as I was convicted on contrived charges under the absurdly-badly-drafted Communications Act 2003, s.127 last November, had previously, in 2021, made a totally untrue allegation of “racial harassment” against me, which resulted in police appearing at my door (though in the end, no charges were brought, for the simple reason that there was no evidence whatsoever, not even any cooked-up by Silverman).

Silverman should have been charged in 2021 or 2022 with an attempted perversion of the course of justice (I suppose that he still could be, in theory), or at least wasting police time (though that latter option would have had to have been brought to charge within 6 months of the false allegation). That is even without consideration of his former online trolling behaviour (using pseudonyms to intimidate people online, mainly women). An incompetent “CAA” lawyer admitted to that behaviour in open court about 6 years ago, in one of the hearings involving another “CAA” target, the satirical singer Alison Chabloz.

Why are these lying Jew-Zionists so often apparently immune from police action? Why is “justice” so often a one-way street in England? The impression given is that “the fix is in” when it comes to the Israel lobby’s activities…

As to Falter himself, he is 40 or 41 years of age, apparently acquired a law degree from Warwick University about 20 years ago, but seems never to have become either barrister or solicitor; seems to be a kind of “trustafarian” (wealthy Jewish parents); described as a “company director”; not much is in the public domain: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/officers/X6tALf0VtsoUgZjSCFF5vMXrKo8/appointments.

As frequently blogged in the past, faux-proletarian Kevin Maguire is just another puppet of the UK Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby, as seen on those ridiculously-staged Punch and Judy “debates” on Sky News with that other puppet, Andrew Pierce.

For more about Myerson, his toxic social media activities, and his unprofessional attitude, see this blog on previous days.

Ten o’clock in the morning, and Myerson has already tweeted 19 times. Obsessed. He should not be sitting as a Recorder (if he still is after all the complaints against him). In fact, if I was disbarred (as I was, in 2016, after a Jew-Zionist campaign against me) for having tweeted 5 supposedly offensive tweets (out of about 150,000 altogether), then Myerson should surely be disbarred as well.

Hard to believe! Even “Lord” John Mann, that longstanding puppet of the Israel lobby, and former MP, is now openly criticizing Falter and the other liars of the “CAA” cabal! Brilliant.

Rachel Johnson– part-Jewish, like her brother Boris-Idiot.

Falter is obviously not respected even by fellow-Jews, indeed even by fellow-Zionists (Jews and non-Jews). He seems to be someone who, without any known business or profession, is using his inherited or trust-fund money to push himself into a leadership position among Jews resident in the UK, but his attempts just do not wash. People, not least Jews, either dislike him, or laugh at him, or both.

Late tweets seen

Falter is patently dishonest. Why is he (and his malicious little “organization”, a tiny and self-selected handful of Jews out of 250,000+ Jews in the UK), given any credence at all by Sky, BBC, LBC, the mainstream Press, and the little Indian money-juggler presently posing as Prime Minister?

Quite plausible. Certainly a trained security man/bodyguard. Look at his head moving round, scanning the nearby crowd through dark glasses.

It would take more than that to make me like Starmer, but good move, anyway.

Jesus H. Christ! Pretty different from the Ambassador in the mid-1990s, Mr. Komissarenko, with whom I travelled in the ambassadorial limousine to the Porton Down biological research centre in Wiltshire (I have blogged previously about that; anyone interested can find it via the search box on the blog).

“Global Times: Russia has – both militarily and economically – everything it needs to defeat Ukraine INFLUENTIAL CHINESE NEWSPAPER EMPHASIZES: RUSSIA’S FINAL BLOW WILL BE A BLOW FOR WESTERN POLITICIANS TOO “Regardless of whether it will take weeks, months or years, Russia has every opportunity to deliver the final blow to Kiev.”

Russia cannot lose this war, and will not lose it.

Uni lecturer wins damages from ‘antisemitism campaigners’ who endangered him and family

“University lecturer James Wilson has been awarded £30,000 in damages against James Mendelsohn and Edward Cantor for defamatory material published about him during an argument about supposed antisemitism in the Labour party. The false claim, that Mr Wilson was a ‘freak [who] takes pictures of kids’, put Mr Wilson and his partner in fear of physical danger, as well as seriously damaging his reputation. The judge had previously rejected an attempt by Mendelsohn and Cantor to quash the lawsuit.

University lecturer James Wilson has been awarded £30,000 in damages against James Mendelsohn and Edward Cantor for defamatory material published about him during an argument about supposed antisemitism in the Labour party. The false claim, that Mr Wilson was a ‘freak [who] takes pictures of kids’, put Mr Wilson and his partner in fear of physical danger, as well as seriously damaging his reputation. The judge had previously rejected an attempt by Mendelsohn and Cantor to quash the lawsuit.

The judgement lays bare that:

  • Mendelsohn and Cantor kept private information and recycled it to the late Dr Pete Newbon – a director of the anti-left group ‘Labour against Antisemitism’ (LAAS), so that he could use it to defame Wilson – the information was untrue and based a) on statements from someone the judge found to have lied about Wilson and b) on false claims about a university disciplinary investigation. Newbon was described by the judge as ‘bullying’
  • that Newbon, who committed suicide in 2022 after a row with his wife and has been lionised by so-called ‘antisemitism campaigners’ despite his awful record as a serial troll repeatedly disciplined by his employers Northumbria University for his appalling social media conduct, had not told her of Wilson’s lawsuit against him for the defamatory posts
  • Mendelsohn and Cantor refused to apologise, mediate or settle, forcing the legal action to proceed to its conclusion
  • a key witness for the defendants said that she had been offered £5,000 by Mendelsohn and Cantor to testify for them (though the judge did not make a finding that her claim was true)
  • the defendants further abused and insulted Wilson in the course of their defence – despite, in the case of Cantor, being warned by the judge not to do so.

The defendants – who represented themselves in court apart from the use of a barrister to cross-examine Wilson – wheeled out a number of figures who are well known for their attacks on the left in an attempt to shore up their defence. The judge dismissed them.

  • University lecturer David Hirsh, a prominent, pro-Israel proponent of supposed ‘left antisemitism’, who wrote an unintentionally revealing elegy to Pete Newbon after his suicide. Hirsh was called to bolster the defendants’ claim that Wilson had shown ‘unwarrantedly aggressive and belligerent conduct’. The judge rejected Hirsh’s evidence that Wilson was ‘aggressive, unpredictable, persistent and irrational’ and found that Wilson’s communications with him over the spreading of a crowdfund for the defendants’ legal costs were ‘not unreasonable’
  • Nathan Comiskey, another advocate of ‘left antisemitism’, who claimed that Wilson contacting him about insulting remarks was ‘highly intrusive and upsetting’ and that he had felt ‘harassed and targeted’. The judge ruled that there was nothing unreasonable in Wilson’s communications and that Comiskey’s testimony did nothing to support the defendants’ claims about supposed unwarranted aggression or belligerence
  • Simon Myerson – a founding signatory of LAAS and supporter of Israel, and a part-time judge recently sanctioned for judicial misconduct for abusive social media posts. Myerson was also a vocal supporter of Newbon, trying to link Jewish author Michael Rosen to Newbon’s suicide, despite a coroner not mentioning Rosen at all in his inquest findings. Mendelsohn and Cantor put forward Wilson’s communications with Myerson, who had shared a post describing Wilson as ‘scum of the earth’, as evidence to support their claim of aggressive behaviour. The judge ruled that it did nothing of the sort
  • Joanne Bell and journalist Adam Cailler – more well-known anti-left activists whose correspondence with Wilson was put forward by the defence as supporting evidence. The judge ruled, “I can find nothing in the emails which is particularly aggressive or which points to conduct of the kind said to demonstrate the pleaded propensity [to aggression]”.

[Skwawkbox]

[quaere: surely Skwawkbox meant to print that Hirsch is an “opponent” of “left antisemitism“? I suppose they meant that he is a proponent of the concept].

“The usual suspects”, or some of them. Most of the above have, in the past, tweeted about me.

The Jew barrister and now (if he is still allowed to sit) Recorder, Myerson, should be removed from any judicial or quasi-judicial positions. He was repeatedly vituperative about me on Twitter in the past, dozens of times. A pro-Israel fanatic, hypocrite, and liar; and that is only what is plain from his own tweets.

I was unaware that Myerson has already been sanctioned by the authorities for unethical conduct. Boot him out.

Most if not all of those mentioned above are also supporters of the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which was behind the recent (2023) prosecution of me, via the suborned police and “Clown” Prosecution Service, and under the notorious “bad law” of the Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).

Incidentally, I have just looked at Myerson’s Twitter/X account for the first time in many months. He has tweeted at least 20 times already today (though nothing about his above embarrassments), and it is only 1400 hrs. He must be busy…

[Update, 3 August 2024: Myerson was removed as a Recorder (p/t judge) in early July, though he was allowed to pretend that he had “resigned”].

Very diplomatic. Very “Christian”, really; almost too nice to the above tribe that set upon him like a pack of hyenas. Dr. Wilson is, after his victory, “turning the other cheek” in a way, but do not forget that other Biblical injunction— “do not give that which is holy to the dogs, lest they turn and rend you“.

Leading “activists” and/or supporters of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (“CAA) —one in particular— are also, or have been, serial online trolls, targeting mainly (but not solely) women, and with a sick glee. Some have now gone up the chimney or become actually/clinically insane, but others remain, making false accusations to police, regulatory bodies etc.

So Myerson tests whether any particular tweeter is a Jew? If anyone of a social-national viewpoint were to do that, Myerson and/or his friends would be straight down to the local police station to make a malicious complaint of either “racial harassment” or “grossly offensive” online posting.

Robinson is a half-Jew, so may not be completely impartial re. Israel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Robinson_(journalist).

On the other hand, some Zionist Jews think that Robinson is a little too fair-minded, noting Israel’s atrocities on air:

“They” never have a small problem; it is always “outrageous” (etc).

Karma applies to peoples and nations as well as individuals. Somewhere down the line, payback happens. Group karma. cf. Israel.

I have many reservations about China, its treatment of animals, lack of concern for individual freedom etc, but this is one of the world’s great peoples, and its achievements since the death of Mao have been more than impressive.

The rate of increase of the world population, so marked in the 19th and 20th centuries, has slowed to an effective halt. The above graphic shows that the fall in fertility and births is not confined to Europe.

Only in Africa, and a few parts of Asia (notably, Pakistan), are populations much increasing via births.

In the UK, the large increase in population over the past half-century has been (especially in the past 30 years) almost entirely by reason of unwanted mass immigration, much of it from Pakistan and other “brown/black” countries, and births to immigrants. Migration invasion.

“Hand over control of the Zaporozhye nuclear plant and they will stop shelling it ,”

Maria Zakharova quoted the famous ultimatum that could be heard on April 15 at the UN Security Council meeting where attacks on the nuclear power plant were discussed. –

“The collective West, led by the USA, continues to turn a blind eye to the crimes of the Kiev regime. The Western countries played along and literally exposed themselves and the Zelenskyi regime. They engage in blackmail, and blackmail related to nuclear energy,” emphasizes Zakharova.“

“Ukraine ignores US warnings to stop flights drones on Russian territory” The United States fears retaliatory strikes from Russia, but Kyiv is ignoring warnings from the United States to stop striking the Russian Federation, The Economist reports.

The US is concerned about rising oil prices, possible retaliatory strikes and an uncontrolled confrontation that could put Kyiv at a disadvantage. Serious concerns grew in late March when Russia caused major damage to Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. The attacks exposed gaps in air defense systems and vulnerability to the new Russian low-altitude cruise missile Kh-69, which destroyed the Trypillya Thermal Power Plant despite being within range of the Patriot air defense systems.”

“Sharon Ruf Offer, a former representative of the Knesset, made a confession in the studio of Channel 14 of the Israel: Why don’t we tell people the truth?! We have lost the north of Israel. The damage that Hezbollah caused us is 6 times more than the war with Lebanon.

I want to cry. Who would have thought that Israel would fall now? Tens of thousands of people were forced to leave their homes six months ago. During this period, the number of cases of divorce, and violence increased.“

Ha ha! I feel almost sorry for them.

True, but I do not recall Matt Goodwin complaining at any time over the past years when the Jewish lobby (which he seems to support 100%) has had closed down meetings, speeches, conferences, even musical entertainments; not to mention “their” continual harassment of various people, including me.

“Ukrainians view the West’s promises to support Kiev “as long as necessary” as an empty story, Politiko writes. ” Due to the weakening of Western support, Ukraine is experiencing an acute shortage not only of weapons and men, but also of the fighting spirit of the soldiers. Neither the population, nor the soldiers, nor their leadership anymore believe in the victory of Kiev. Russian leader Vladimir Putin may never have been closer to his goal “, the paper writes.”

The Western states may supply arms and ammunition but cannot supply fighting soldiers. The Kiev regime is running out of soldiers, and new recruits. It can only be a matter of time before there is a general advance of Russian forces across both Eastern Ukraine and the Black Sea littoral towards Odessa.

Talking point

From the newspapers

https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/disgraced-barrister-henry-hendron-bought-drugs-from-clients-loses-appeal-bid-b1151568.html

“A barrister who was jailed for asking clients to sell him drugs has failed in a bid to overturn his 14-month prison sentence.

Henry Hendron, 42, sent messages asking for help with drugs supply, after meeting the men through his work as a criminal lawyer.

Delivering the ruling, Recorder of Sheffield Judge Jeremy Richardson, sitting with Lord Justice William Davis and Mr Justice Calver, said Hendron’s case is “unique” and added: “It is to be hoped that remains the case.”

Dismissing the appeal, the judges concluded: “The sentence here is not excessive, still less manifestly excessive in all the circumstances.”

Hendron had built up a profile as a barrister to the stars, with prominent clients including the Earl of Cardigan and Tory MP Nadine Dorries.

But Hendron’s career floundered after his 18-year-old boyfriend Miguel Jimenez was found dead at the flat the couple shared in Pump Court, Temple, in the City of London, after taking a lethal cocktail of so-called chemsex party drugs.

He admitted buying £1,000 worth of M-cat or Meow Meow and GBL from award-winning former BBC producer Alex Parkin and was handed a community order with 140 hours of unpaid work at the Old Bailey in 2016.

The Court of Appeal noted that Hendron had not been disbarred after that conviction, noting “unusual and very serious” feature of his case.

He was suspended by the Bar Standards Board for three years following his 2016 convictions.

He was reprimanded and prohibited from undertaking public access work for two years following a disciplinary hearing in 2021 after holding himself out as a barrister on websites while suspended.“

[Evening Standard]

When I blogged about the injustices around my own (in my case, wrongful and unlawful) disbarment of late 2016, I contrasted the repeatedly lenient treatment of Hendron with my own Draconian “sentence”. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

In that blog post, I speculated as to whether Hendron knew something discreditable about senior figures or, perhaps, was being treated leniently by reason of some other kind. I am still none the wiser on that, however.

It seems, on the face of that Evening Standard report, though, that Hendron is still not disbarred. Curiouser and curiouser.

Elon Musk has enormous amounts of money, but when it comes to society and politics, he simply howls into the void like many another on Twitter.

In order to have real impact, an “uber-wealthy” person of that sort has to engage directly, either by funding people and projects (Bill Gates), or by himself becoming a kind of political figure (Donald Trump).

“My friend grew up in New England where they have pigeons. Apparently they also hate them. He was always saying bad things about pigeons until I pointed something out that he never thought of before: We domesticated pigeons. They are (nearly) all over the world because HUMANS BROUGHT THEM THERE. And, they were more than pets. They carried messages. People raced them. They lived spoiled lives as honored human companions for centuries. Then we got telephones and we threw them out like trash. Literally, we threw them away. Their species had already been fully domesticated and they could not survive in the wild; they lost all their survival instincts during the centuries that they lived caged by people. That is why they live in cities with people instead of in a forest somewhere. It’s OUR fault. And not only did we throw them away, but now humans curse them as “winged rats;” casting them as pests. But they don’t know how to live without us, and their instincts tell us that they should trust us. So, they continue to come up to humans and beg for food, because it’s the only survival skill left in their genes. They love us because they were bred by us to feel that way, and yet we hate them.”

Good points. Urban pigeons can be a nuisance, true, but they also clear up rubbish people throw away or drop in the streets, like crisps and chips. In the end, they are God’s creatures.

“Ukrainian Prime Minister Shmygal asked the West for air defense “to protect Russian cities”: “We need artillery and ammunition to reach parity with the Russians, we need F-16s to shoot down Russian planes near the front line, we also need air defense systems to protect Russian cities…

Sorry, Ukrainian cities where civilians live and where enterprises are located that are under threat from the Russian side. All of this will help us achieve victory, and will also set the stage for recovery, growth and prosperity.”

Freudian slip.

Uncharted waters. Trump is on trial on serious Federal charges, yet seems likely to win the 2024 Election. I suppose that, if elected, and also convicted, he can pardon himself! Not a mere jest; it is a long time since I passed an exam in U.S. Constitutional Law (1991 or 1992), and that topic was not on the paper (needless to add), but I think that there would be nothing to prevent Trump at least purporting to pardon himself (and/or those involved in the events at the Capitol several years ago).

Whitty strikes me as the sort of bureaucrat who, as Khrushchev said of Malenkov, should never be given power (admittedly, the second part might have applied to Khrushchev himself).

US aid and military involvement in the Israel-Iran fight might yet lead to entanglement and a possible superpower nuclear confrontation; US military involvement, directly, in the Russia-Ukraine war would almost certainly lead to nuclear war before very long. That is the difference. That, and the fact that the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby effectively rules over American politics. Most of their politicians are under control, basically.

Ha ha! So 51% of young Frenchmen are willing to fight for “Ukraine” (the regime in Kiev)? If it were even 5%, I should be amazed.

“The shark can smell blood in the water a mile off when it is hungry” [John le Carre, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold].

The Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby would like to criminalize any criticism of Jewish or Israeli behaviour, and also any positive or even neutral analysis of the enemies of Israel.

Britain was once known as the home of free speech. No longer.

Incidentally, should any generous persons like to help me defray the Court-imposed costs of my recent free speech trial, the link is here: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J. If you cannot donate, at least share the link. Thank you.

A much-overworked word, “top”, as shown in that tweet. Likewise, barristers and other lawyers are often (and usually wrongly) described as “top“; as in “top lawyer Mark Lewis“, which years ago was used re. Mark Lewis, the Jewish Zionist solicitor briefly well-known a decade or more ago during the “phonehacking” affair, who fled to Israel several years ago following his “conviction” by a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal for having posted some violently insulting social media posts.

Despite Lewis having been described for several years as “top lawyer” by various msm outlets, Lewis’s own Counsel at that Tribunal hearing said that Lewis owned only his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 per week.

Moral of the story? Never trust the msm.

If anyone wants to read more about Lewis, use the search box on the blog.

The flip-side of “top” may be “disgraced“, as (again, wrongly) used about me by “the usual suspects” and their scribbler dupes in the msm; in my case by reason of my (wrongful and unlawful) disbarment in 2016 and my recent conviction for having allegedly posted [the truth] on this blog.

“Top“, in that sense, is what might be called “Sun-speak”, used in tabloid “newspapers” but rarely in real life, along with “scorcher“, “fury“, “tot” (for a small child, not a small drink of spirits), and”far-right” (social-national) etc.

Hasn’t Goodwin worked out what forces are really behind the EU and NWO? (((you know who)))…

“They” always try to shut down free speech.

Goodwin may need to not antagonize “the usual suspects”, though.

Controlled opposition.

I often say that, but some (pro-immigration) people think that they “know better” than me…

It is very unlikely that Israel will still be in existence in 2034.

“Israel will surely respond to the Iranian attack, the question is in scale, instruments and time, according to Grigory Lukyanov, research associate of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Israel’s entire security strategy is built on the maxim that no attack on Israeli territory can go unanswered and that the answer must exceed the magnitude of the damage and the blow inflicted on Israel and its interests.”

What Gullis prefers not to understand is that people are voting, or intending to vote, Reform UK not because they expect their candidates, most of them, to win Commons seats or other elected positions (beyond local council level), but precisely because they know that voting Reform UK will hole the Conservative ship below the waterline, and sink it, along with the Conservative candidates.

Those voting Reform UK want to punish the existing government of clowns, even at the expense of inviting into government another bunch of clowns possibly even more toxic.

Polls show that almost all Reform UK voters believe that Reform UK will win few seats; even in their own constituencies where they vote, most (60%) do not believe that the Reform candidate will win.

What those voters are doing is making a protest vote against the whole rigged Westminster system, FPTP etc; they are also punishing the Conservative Party for being so useless generally, and especially on immigration and migration invasion, on law and order, and on things like NHS services. They are passing judgment on the Conservative Party, as well as saying “we want and deserve better” and “we want our country back” (which latter may or may not be possible now).

Reform UK voters, most of them, would never vote directly for Labour, not even tactically, but are going to steel themselves to vote Reform UK knowing that Labour victories, and some LibDem victories, will be the result. If Reform UK wins a few Commons seats, then (for those voters) that would be a bonus.

An appeal such as that by Gullis probably encourages Reform UK intending voters to stick to their guns.

[Update, 15 May 2024: Well, Gullis has now had his answer— Labour won that mayoral election, if only “by a neck, cleverly”, as they say on the racecourse. Labour 37.8%, Conservative 37.5%, Independent 11.7%, Reform UK 5.8%, and Greens 5.2%. The Con candidate would probably have won if Reform UK did not exist; most Reform UK voters would have voted Con, were the present Government not so utterly useless. There were few votes separating Con and Lab— 1,508 votes, in fact. The Reform UK candidate attracted 34,471 votes… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_West_Midlands_mayoral_election].

The result of constant msm propaganda. There is no reason for there to be a Third World War because of either the Ukraine situation or that in and around Israel, but certain groups in the West, mainly, are pushing for war.

Incidentally, what you rarely see is how Israel is, potentially, a threat, indeed a nuclear missile threat, to the UK and the rest of Europe:

I think that he means “unquestioning“, but yes.

Both UK and USA— corrupted.

Well, it could not be more clear what (((group))) is pulling Starmer’s strings. Everything about him, his political life, his personal life etc, makes that very clear. Putting it clearly, Starmer is a puppet.

When I had a Twitter account, it was one of a handful of individual Twitter accounts Icke followed; later, of course, the Jew-Zionist/pro-Israel cabal had me expelled, by pressuring Twitter (in 2018). Icke too, though he has returned, and I have not (and do not intend to return).

I once (about 1980) read an unpublished typescript in a dusty file (typed and placed in said file sometime around 1930 but a translation from a German original of about 1923) talking about how, within about 200 years (i.e. sometime around 2100 and thereafter), a web of part-human, part-robot “creatures” would criss-cross the Earth, but above the Earth (if I recall aright), and human beings would be to some extent dependent upon and in thrall to that web of intelligent human-robot creatures.

Was that just imaginative nonsense? I do not know but, looking at the Internet, looking at the rapid progress of AI, and looking at how human society is today already very dependent upon computerized systems etc (not only for physical activities but also for decision-making), I cannot simply dismiss it as over-imaginative speculation, or even a hoax.

I should like to read that manuscript again, if it still exists, but unfortunately I now have no access to the vault where it was stored.

Matt Goodwin, whose free speech has been interfered with, is very vocal in favour of Israel and the UK Jewish lobby. They are the main group shutting down free speech in the UK, and have been for decades. Goodwin should reflect on that old American saying “what goes around comes around“…

So how are we in the social-national world going to deal with the regime of those who will be “elected” dictators of the UK in less than a year (maybe only a few months)? Answers “on a postcard”, but don’t expect me to publish them— free speech is already all but dead in the UK, and the expected Labour Friends of Israel government of Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, Wes Streeting etc will finish the job, destroying what little is left of freedom of expression in this country.

“The Pentagon chief announced a threat to global energy due to attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Russian oil refineries.

Lloyd Austin announced this at a hearing in the US Senate. “ Certainly these attacks could have a knock-on effect on the global energy situation ,” he said.

At the same time, the head of the American defense department spoke in favor of Kiev stopping such actions. According to him, Ukraine “is better off pursuing tactical and operational goals that can directly affect current battles.”

Ukrainian drones have attacked several Russian oil refineries since the beginning of March. Among them are factories in the Nizhny Novgorod, Samara, Ryazan regions, and Krasnodar Territory.“

The West, particularly the USA, is shooting itself in the foot. It gives money, arms, and ammunition to the Kiev regime, which uses part of that to attack oil refineries in Russia. Result— the world price of oil increases, Russia makes even more surplus from the many refineries still operating normally, and the West, including the USA, pays through the nose even more for oil, making its citizens poorer and its industries less competitive.

“A trans woman who threatened to kill, blind and break the backs of woman’s rights campaigners Kellie-Jay Keen – known as Posie Parker – and Helen Joyce has been spared jail.

Layla Le Fey, 44, was handed a suspended jail sentence after the court heard she had been struggling with her mental health when she made the treats of extreme violence and arson towards the activists.

One post from Le Fey said: ‘I’m a trans woman and I’m not ashamed to admit I’d be happy to physically kick the s*** out of you and pull your eyes out and break your spine’.

In another post, Le Fey wrote: ‘If you want to prove your point that some trans people are extremely violent, I’m game’, while a third she said she wanted to burn Mrs Keen – founder of the group Standing for Women.

In a victim statement, Mrs Keen said she wanted to make clear the threats against her were made by a man.

‘A violent man committed a crime,’ she said. The violent threats had far greater impact on my husband and children than me. They are very worried for my safety. 

‘Terrorising women into silence was the intent of this man. I want to make it clear, this crime was committed by a man.’

“She added: ‘This is what happens when women speak up. I didn’t want to elevate this person’s comments, so I did not respond. These tweets disturbed me and I’ve no doubt given the opportunity this person would have carried out these threats.”She added: ‘This is what happens when women speak up.

It really is about time that “we” or, more accurately, the msm, stopped referring to these individuals as “trans women“. If they need be referred to at all, “trans persons” would be more accurate and so more suitable.

In fact, Tim Montgomerie is too mild. Abortion at a late stage is closer to murder than infanticide. Infanticide is usually done by a mother not long after birth; there are usually compelling extenuations of psychology and physiology. Abortion as we know it today is a planned and organized process, coldly executed, and often involving considerable profit.

A point made by me on the blog in the past, several times. Idiotic Gordon Brown, who thought himself so very clever was, I believe, the “brains” behind “working tax credits”, i.e. a system whereby employers could pay scheiss wages to their employees, who then had their pay topped-up by the State. “Welfare” for poor-paying employers. Madness.

Terrible. I am glad to say that I have never been on “Universal Credit”, but were I not exempt by reason of age I just might have been, especially since the Jewish lobby (sub nom “UK Lawyers for Israel”) had the Bar Standards Board contrive a case to have me disbarred in 2016.

We hear much about the “epidemic of shoplifting” and other crime, but I am wondering how much of that is driven by the fact that the social security/”welfare” system now does not really provide a sufficient safety net for those without paid work or private means. Not all crime is driven by real need, of course, but much is.

Basic income is probably the way forward. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_basic_income.

Compare that to the Profumo affair of the early 1960s. A Cabinet minister resigned merely for having had a secret girlfriend who happened to be also involved with the Soviet Naval Attache, and having lied about the affair.

The game is not…quite… at an end. There is still the possibility that a very small minority of Europeans (“Aryans” or, more accurately, post-Aryans) can take control sufficiently to vanquish evil and then create the basis for a new society which, eventually, over a long period of time, can become the foundation for an even later super-race.

[the Swastika, or Hakenkreuz, symbol of the positive evolution of consciousness]

As so often, people tweet or otherwise comment about the Muslim encroachment, and I have no argument about that, but they all too often ignore the fact of the far more powerful “Zionist” lobby, so embedded now in UK System politics, law, finance and business (obviously), and in the mainstream media and elsewhere.

Look at that cartoon. Islamic flags, but no Star of David or Israeli flags; yet which bloc or lobby is taking away freedom of expression in the UK? 90%+ of the repression is being co-ordinated by Jewish/Zionist and/or pro-Israel groups, such as the small but well-funded and very malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” kruzhok, which has attacked and tried to prosecute not only me but also such as Alison Chabloz, Al-Jazeera TV, David Icke, the Jewish —but anti-Israel— jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, and numerous others.

As far as my own situation is concerned, the “CAA” has engaged in a decade-long campaign against me (which fact the CAA admits, though saying it has been 7+ years-long). They also admit using the very peculiar Israel-lobby-owned “lord”, former MP Ian Austin, to pressure officials of the Crown (Clown) Prosecution Service, right up to the level of the Director of Public Prosecutions himself, to prosecute me on any basis that could be contrived.

The “CAA” (and their suborned dupes, the “Clown” Prosecution Service) were crowing online, including on Twitter/X, about having managed to get me convicted in November 2023, using the Communications Act 2003, s.127, a law so badly-drafted and unjust that the Law Commission has formally recommended its repeal, but the “CAA” has not tweeted at all about the sentence handed down in March 2024— 15 “rehabilitation” meetings with or via the Probation Service, and a costs order of £734 in all.

[I now, today, have just seen that the “CAA” website has published a long whining complaint that the sentence given to me was “scandalously lenient“. The “CAA” has nothing to complain about— its so-called “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” made a totally false allegation in 2021 that I had “racially abused” him. There was no evidence at all for that complaint, yet the individual has never been prosecuted, not yet anyway, for a quite plain attempted perversion of the course of justice].

Incidentally, should any kind persons wish to defray the costs imposed on me by the Court, donations can be made here: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.

So far, £235 has been raised, about a third of the minimum payment required, and I have agreed with the payment office of the Court to pay £91.75 per month (for 8 months).

The history of my decade of persecution by the “CAA” and the other involved group, “UK Lawyers for Israel” ([UKLFI”] (both presently to be seen supporting the slaughter in Gaza, and the latter responsible for the complaint against me that resulted, after 2+ years, in my getting disbarred in 2016) can be found, in part, here below:

When I was a victim of a malicious Zionist complaint…
The Slide of the English Bar and UK Society Continues and Accelerates
Diary Blog, 15 January 2022, including an outline of the failure of the latest Jew-Zionist attempt to prosecute me

I have little doubt that that “CAA” cabal will be trying to contrive another malicious complaint against me now that their 2021-2024 ones have fallen flat; fallen flat despite my 2023 conviction and 2024 sentence, because the sentence was fairly lenient (though I had hoped for an even-lighter sentence, a conditional discharge and/or small fine), and because the (rather fair-minded, in my opinion) sentencing judge refused to grant the pathetic —and pathetically-poorly drafted— Clown Crown Prosecution Service application to restrict what I say or publish on the blog.

Also, there was no suspended sentence of imprisonment— my written Defendant’s Argument on Sentence put paid to any idea of that sort, and Prosecution Counsel, to be fair, was not foolish enough to ask for one once the trial judge had effectively ruled that out at end of trial (let alone actual imprisonment).

Anyway, what that means is that, should the “CAA” and/or police and Clown Prosecution Service want to prosecute me again, i.e. for what has been posted on the blog since mid-November 2023, or what is being currently posted on the blog, they will have to start all over again, and if they were to do that (pointlessly wasting yet more tens of thousands of pounds of public money), the matter would probably not conclude until some time in 2025, or even later, were I to appeal any conviction and sentence (and, were I to be convicted again, an appeal might be more likely than it was in the 2023/2024 matter).

I should robustly defend any further attempt to prosecute me for anything, of course.

Actually, while I dispute that any of the material in respect of which I was recently convicted and sentenced was “grossly offensive” anyway, regular readers will have noted that the blog has, in the past months, taken on a more diplomatic and more thoughtful tone, while remaining staunch and steadfast in principle and ideology.

Incidentally, readers may like to know that no Prosecution application was made to the Court at trial or after sentence that any material should be removed from the blog. All the (5) blog posts (out of 1,800 posted since 2016) which were the subject-matter of the trial remain extant and, while naturally it is the wiser course for me not to link to them, browsing readers interested in seeing what nonsense the prosecution was can see all of those blog posts via the search box or otherwise.

Indeed, the Clown Prosecution Service and “CAA”, as well as the few mass media outlets that reported my conviction and/or sentence, have themselves republished most of the supposedly “grossly offensive” remarks about Jews allegedly first posted by me, thus spreading those remarks far and wide. Thank you, clowns!

My legal position now, in respect of the blog, is what it was this time last year, or indeed in 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 (when the blog started). The blog remains, all previous posts remain in place, and I continue to blog, despite the inevitably chilling effect on freedom of expression of the past year’s repressive legal process.

https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/27113042/spurs-joe-lewis-jail-insider-trading

“BRIT billionaire businessman Joe Lewis has been sentenced for insider training. Here is the rise and fall of the ex-Spurs chief:

After quitting school at the age of 15, entrepreneurial Lewis went to work for his dad’s catering company.

Lewis began managing a super-club called The Talk of the Town – where the likes of Frank Sinatra performed – in the 1960s, and granted girl group The Nolans their first live show.

He then got a taste for business and took over the firm – turning it into a string of restaurants before flogging it in 1979 for a whopping £30million.

Lewis used his cash influx to invest in currency trading and was subbed The Boxer in a nod to his wild success and power in the investment ring.

Lewis forked out £22million in 2001 to buy a controlling stake in Tottenham Hotspur from Lord Sugar.

One particular investment on Black Wednesday in September 1992 helped elevate him to uber-rich status, as he successfully bet on the Pound crashing out of the European Exchange Rate as Britain tried to align it with other Euro countries.

He became a billionaire overnight…”

Note how the Sun “newspaper” fails to identify the defendant as Jewish, despite said defaulter having profited hugely, e.g. on “Black Wednesday” (1992), from the impoverishment of the British people.

Officers in hi-vis clothing were filmed restraining a woman in a dark jacket and a grey hood at the edge of the concourse in London Victoria railway station, in video footage disseminated on Snapchat.

The arrest came after an as-yet-unnamed twisted prankster was filmed seemingly clobbering innocent victims on the London Underground as well as in a supermarket, and on the steps outside the Westfield Stratford shopping centre.

As a result, despite being seriously unwell and feeling ‘foggy in the brain’, he had to help advise doctors on how to treat him.

But even though he was a haematologist himself, he faced a struggle to persuade nurses to show him his blood test results, she said.

[Daily Mail]

In fact, Younger is just part of the problem, and offers no solutions. [What might be called] “an educated cretin” who, after an expensive education, did 2-3 years as a Guards officer before joining the “niche career opportunity for the English middle classes”— SIS/MI6. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Younger

Younger seems entirely unaware that, even now, the UK seems (not to me, but to most of the British people, meaning real British people) not worth defending. What does Younger think the UK will be like by, say, 2034? 2044?

By 2050, half of those inhabiting these islands will not even be British in any real sense. Does Younger imagine that they will agree to be conscripted? Incidentally, it is no answer to say that the agreement of the conscripted is unnecessary; enlistment of the unwilling usually produces poor results.

Younger seems to be part of that UK pseudo-elite at the top of UK affairs which is so featherbedded and isolated from reality—reality as most people experience it in this country— that the same (self-regarding) “elite” constantly get it wrong in every way.

Younger and those like him should read the “Readers’ Comments” appended to that article: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13273557/brits-called-fight-country-conscription-mi6-chief.html. They might give him and his cohorts pause for thought.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings a convincing victory over political journalist John Rentoul; he only managed 1/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 3, 4, 7, and 9.

Laura Towler and Sam Melia

I included material on the blog yesterday about Laura Towler and her husband Sam Melia. I am not personally acquainted with them, and am not, as such, a supporter of their organization, Patriotic Alternative, but obviously am, as they are, supportive of European race and culture, and want Europe to have a future worth living. I also support free speech and freedom of expression.

Yesterday, Sam Melia was sentenced to 2 years in prison, a result of his having been convicted of what amounts to political offences. He will therefore probably be in prison for a year (possibly/hopefully a few months less).

I also happened to see this crowdfunder for the couple, who have a young child, with another expected soon.

…”and then there were none“…

One more reason no longer to respect the police in the UK.

Sam Melia. Wrong race, wrong nationality, wrong “crime”…

No doubt Sam Melia’s solicitors and Counsel will be considering whether to appeal, at least on sentence. A tough choice, though, when there is the danger of an increase in sentence in the appellate forum.

Appalling, but I should have more (or some) respect for Toby Young and the “Free Speech Union” had he and they said a word in defence of those dissident voices criminalized because of their (perceived) political views. Alison Chabloz, Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch), Sam Melia, me…and many many others,

The little Indian money-juggler, Sunak, is going down politically. This time next year, he will probably have relocated to California or Bombay, and/or be another fake “lord” in the now-ludicrous House of “Lords”.

While it is true that a huge “Labour” majority would merely increase the repression on social-nationalism, at least there would be no nonsense about social national people having to play the “electoral” (rigged) game.

The faked pseudo-democratic “two main parties” game has to be brought down. If the Conservative Party can be almost wiped out at GE 2024, that party, half of the “two party” scam, may never recover. That in turn will lead to a vacuum which may then be filled by something new.

As for Sajid Javid, his brief political career is now at an end, unless he becomes yet another “plastic peer”. A near-loonie, who once praised the “antifa” thugs; also an acolyte of the Jewish “philosopher of selfishness”, “Ayn Rand” (Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum), and so pro-Israel and pro-Jewish lobby that he even spent his honeymoon in Israel. An ex-Muslim apostate, who thinks that the UK’s multikulti society is a “success” only because he happens to have made plenty of money here.

If Israel can be weakened, its support and aid given to the worldwide Jewish lobby web may falter, enabling that worldwide web to be taken down.

I was unaware.

Слава!

“While Rishi Sunak is whining about the peasants voting wrongly, WW3 just came a step closer!

Military experts told RIA Novosti how they assess proposals by top German officers to strike the Crimean Bridge: In response to the supply of Taurus missiles to Kiev, Moscow may consider the possibility of “Dagger” attacks on the manufacturing plant of these missiles in Germany, says Igor Korotchenko. ##NoConscription ##notourwar.”

Germany is presently ruled by traitors to the future of the German people. Those traitors are also pretty stupid. Do they think that Russia will sit still while its vital strategic infrastructure is targeted?

“A year in prison for stickers that told simple truths is as disgusting as it was expected.

Sam Melia was foolish to run with an obvious honeytrap group, and to be caught flirting with deeply demonised ideas, but that doesn’t alter the gross injustice of locking up a young father for purely peaceful dissidence, in order to intimidate other indigenous Brits into silence about our ongoing marginalisation and dispossession.

By refusing to allow peaceful and constructive expression of these issues, the UK state is pushing angry individuals towards a much less benign way of expressing their fears and frustration.

They were meant to learn from the Troubles in Northern Ireland, not repeat on the mainland the sort of injustice and repression that helped create them. #freespeech.”

[Nick Griffin].

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable“

[President John F. Kennedy; speech at the White House, Washington D.C. 13 March 1962; see https://www.oxfordreference.com/display/10.1093/acref/9780191843730.001.0001/q-oro-ed5-00006245].

George Galloway received 39.7% of the vote at Rochdale. The combined vote of the next three candidates (Independent David Tully, Labour Party, and Conservative Party) totalled only 41%: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Rochdale_by-election#Results.

The combined vote of the Labour and Conservative candidates was a mere 19.7%.

When Dan Hodges talks about Sunak “going early“, he is not referring to resignation but to Sunak calling an early General Election 2024. I had thought September or October, but it now looks as if June or July are possible months.

I just looked on the Electoral Calculus website [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html]. On present opinion polling, the Conservative Party might end up with as few as 43 MPs. Happy day, though equally I hate the idea of the Labour Party “elected dictatorship” that would inevitably result, and which might make Blair’s regime seem mild.

If those idiots attack Russia, there will be a direct response. That would presumably trigger Article 5 of the NATO Treaty, and from there it would be a very short step to a regional war, then a continental war, then an intercontinental war involving Russia and the USA. In other words, a Third World War. Terrible. Disastrous. Unnecessary.

That is enough for almost an entire year at present rates of use.

Seems speculative. If Iran does become a nuclear power, Israel will go ballistic, possibly literally.

Rochdale by-election

I blogged about the by-election a few days ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/02/25/diary-blog-25-february-2024-including-a-look-at-the-upcoming-rochdale-by-election/.

The latest from the bookmakers is that George Galloway (Workers Party) is odds-on to win, followed by (around 6/4) Azhar Ali, the former Labour candidate disowned by Starmer, Azhar Ali therefore being an independent candidate in reality, though “Labour” on the ballot paper. The next in line is the LibDem, trailing the frontrunners at about 65/1. Reform UK (Simon Danczuk) is at 100/1. The rest of the field of 11— 1,000/1.

This is now between Galloway and “Labour” Azhar Ali. Former Labour MP Danczuk only got 1.8% (as Independent) in 2017, after having been sacked. The LibDem may do better than expected, being a white man and alternative to Ali and also to Scotsman George Galloway, whose campaign has been all about Gaza, and whose voters are (90%+) Muslims. Still, if I had to bet, I would probably go with the perceived favourite, Galloway.

The by-election is between two candidates trying to capture the Pakistani Muslim vote. Where do the English voters go? They are still the majority in the constituency, numerically, yet have been frozen out.

Symptomatic of System politics in the UK?

I have no sympathy for Danczuk, and little for Reform UK, but will be interested to see how they go. Had Reform UK put up a better candidate, it might have gone close. As it is, I daresay that the white (English) vote will be split several ways.

Israel declares war on “antisemitism” and “anti-Semites”

https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-789439

“Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikii said that “the time has come to move from the defensive to the offensive, and to ensure that the perpetrators of anti-Semitism are identified and dealt with.

“The time has come to move from the defensive to the offensive and to ensure that the perpetrators of antisemitism are identified and dealt with,” Chikli said.

The initiative will include a push for a government proclamation to improve Israel’s global standing and legislation to target organizations, including NGOs, and individuals engaged in antisemitism.“

[Jerusalem Post]

Well, there it is. “They” want a war, and are about to launch one.

In fact, Israel already targets (via local volunteers in the UK and elsewhere) anyone opposed to Jewish/Zionist global domination.

I myself am due to be sentenced next month, following my conviction in November 2023 for political “offences” under the notorious “bad law” Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).

What the Israelis are saying about why the Israeli response on 7 October 2023 was at first very slow, and then incompetent (killing Israeli civilians indiscriminately).

Needless to say, the “Pearl Harbor” idea, i.e. that the Israeli leadership knew of the attack plan but allowed it to happen in order to be able to flatten Gaza with a figleaf of justification, is not mooted.

1956. The year of my birth in present incarnation.

A very important message still not understood by some people.

One cannot simply dismiss that tweet as “a woman scorned”; the kind of dishonesty alleged destroys (if proven) hope for social nationalism, destroys trust.

Not that it matters in terms of realities, though. “Britain First” has no chance anyway, whether at Rochdale or anywhere else.

True, but I seem to recall that Jayda Fransen was pro-Israel not so very long ago…: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2020/09/11/diary-blog-11-september-2020-including-a-few-notes-about-jayda-fransen-and-her-new-british-freedom-party/.

I was unaware that that bastard Pollard was still alive.

I wonder how many Jews there are in, e.g. the Security Service/MI5 and SIS? Some, for sure. Where lie their loyalties? See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Pollard.

Pollard was granted Israeli citizenship while incarcerated. He relocated to Israel in 2020.

I suppose that the Israelis thought that they owed Pollard something. After all, when he desperately appealed to the Israeli Embassy in Washington —when the FBI was on his tail— the Israeli Embassy guards were ordered to shut the gates and not let him back in. He was then immediately arrested by the FBI. He did 30 years in Federal custody, altogether (inc. 2 years of pre-trial detention).

Quite right.

More from the global police state

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-justice-minister-defends-house-arrest-power-for-people-feared-to

“[Canadian] Justice Minister Arif Virani has defended a new power in the online harms bill to impose house arrest on someone who is feared to commit a hate crime in the future – even if they have not yet done so already.

The person could be made to wear an electronic tag, if the attorney-general requests it, or ordered by a judge to remain at home, the bill says.

Bill C-63 is designed to curb the proliferation of hate online, but it also establishes a new hate-crime offence, which would carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.

Mr. Virani said the hate-crime offence would only be applied if coupled with another crime and the life sentence would only apply in the most serious of cases – not, for example, for mischief to a garage door.

Mr. Virani said the current bill followed studies of the experiences of other countries, including Britain, France and Germany, which have produced similar legislation. Some have had to reverse course after challenges and criticism.

Since it was published on Monday, some lawyers and constitutional experts have raised fears that Bill C-63 could chill free speech.

The bill would allow people to file complaints to the Canadian Human Rights Commission over what they perceive as hate speech online – including, for example, off-colour jokes by comedians. People found guilty of posting hate speech could have to pay victims up to $20,000 in compensation.

But experts including internet law professor Michael Geist have said even a threat of a civil complaint – with a lower burden of proof than a court of law – and a fine could have a chilling effect on freedom of expression.“

[The Globe and Mail]

Look at what has happened in the UK. Material (comments, cartoons) are supposed to fall into unlawfulness only if “grossly” offensive. In theory, remarks, cartoons merely “offensive” are not unlawful, but in practice one finds (as in my own case last November) that once the police, CPS and courts think that XYZ is “offensive”, then XYZ becomes, almost automatically, “grossly offensive“, and the maker is then convicted accordingly (as I was).

Free speech has then been further chilled, or killed…

Canada is asking for something akin to civil war by enacting tyrannical laws of this sort.

Diary Blog, 16 February 2024, with thoughts about the Wellingborough and Kingswood by-election results, and the death of Alexei Navalny

Morning music

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1tnpLs1lns

I remember that song. 1967; I was a 10-y-o child living in Mosman, a North Shore suburb of Sydney. Different times (look at the comments appended to that YouTube video).

From the mass media

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68305050

“Major French magazine L’Express has revealed that its prominent former editor, Philippe Grumbach, was a KGB spy for 35 years.

He counted presidents, actors and literary giants as close friends. He was a legendary figure in journalism who shaped the editorial direction of one of France’s most successful publications. When he died in 2003, Minister of Culture Jean-Jacques Aillagon said Grumbach had been “one of the most memorable and respected figures in French media”.

But he was also “Brok”, the KGB spy.

Extensive proof of Grumbach’s duplicitous life can be found in the so-called Mitrokhin archive.

Born in Paris in 1924 into a Jewish family, Grumbach fled France with his mother and siblings in 1940 – the year Nazi Germany invaded and Marshal Philippe Pétain took power in Vichy with a collaborationist regime.“

[BBC]

The Wellingborough and Kingswood by-elections

At Wellingborough, a convincing win for Labour. I thought that it might go closer than it did. Labour 45.9%, Conservatives 24.6%, Reform UK 13%. All 8 other candidates lost their deposits; the LibDems came closest with 4.7%. A local Independent, Marion Turner-Hawes, scored 3.7% and probably would have beaten the LibDems had she been the only Independent standing. The Greens, as usual, were nowhere (6th) on 3.4%, and Britain First was even more “nowhere” on 1.6%.

The Conservatives were let down partly by the choice of candidate, the girlfriend of unpleasant former MP, Peter Bone. Having said that, the main reason for the electoral upset was that people want a change, even if it is really not much of a change, or the wrong change. They wanted, also, to stamp on the Conservative Party.

The Conservative candidate tried to make “stopping the boats“, i.e. the continuing cross-Channel migration-invasion, the issue. Of course, the fact is that the cross-Channel invasion is only a tenth, if that, of the main invasion— the enormous influx of “students”, “family-members”, “highly-skilled workers” (Indians that can work a computer) as well as supposed “asylum-seekers” etc.

Also, the “Conservative” governments of 2010-2024 have not even seriously tried to “stop the boats”, let alone the main migration-invasion. Not far short of a million a year now.

Talk is cheap…

Empty words at best, lying words at worst (collusion with the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan).

A better candidate, and one not tied up with Peter Bone, might have scored higher, maybe well over 30%, and so lost less embarrassingly.

A real social-national party, if one existed, might have won. Turnout was only 38%; a huge 62% of those eligible to vote did not bother, or showed their contempt for the whole system via abstention.

No need to “analyze” the Britain First vote— pathetic. As for Reform UK, it is going to have to do a lot better than that if it is going to start winning seats. Another pro-Israel scam-party by Nigel Farage.

Overall, the result is another nail in the coffin of the Rishi Sunak government, and the Conservative Party (and Sunak himself, of course).

I should be ready to bet that, if voters aged 65+ (many of whom would have voted early by post) were taken away, the remaining Con Party vote would have been no more than 10%.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellingborough_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s

Kingswood, north of Bristol and in effect an outer suburb of Bristol, also returned a Labour MP yesterday. Pointlessly, of course, because not only will there be a general election this year but, also, the constituency is being abolished.

The result was Labour 44.9%, Conservatives 34.9%, Reform UK 10.4%, Green 5.8%, LibDems 3.5%, UKIP 0.5%.

Turnout was 37.1%, even lower than at Wellingborough. Almost two-thirds of those eligible could not be bothered to vote, and/or despise the whole circus.

The Labour candidate had the advantage of being of local origin, more or less, combined with not being a Conservative. His unusual personal life (gay, and having converted from Roman Catholicism to Judaism to fit in with his Jewish “civil partner”) seems to have been disregarded by the voters (meaning the 11,176 who voted for him, out of about 80,000; the other ~68,000 were eligible to vote but either did not vote or voted for other candidates).

The Conservative Party candidate came closer than I had expected. His own local origins can probably be thanked for that. The Farage vehicle, Reform UK, came third, but again seems to be —time after time— the “also ran” party…

The Greens saved their deposit and beat the LibDems into 5th place. The rump of UKIP came last, and one has to wonder why candidates for no-hope parties like that even bother.

Yet another nail in Sunak’s political coffin, of course.

Taking away the local aspects of both by-elections, for me the “takeaways” are that this “Conservative” government is toast, that Sunak is toast, and that the Conservative Party is toast. Also, that the LibDems are seen as dull and, except where they have a good tactical chance against a Conservative candidate, unappealing to voters.

More? Well, that Reform UK is not exciting enough people, not yet anyway, to start being a major player. Also, that the Greens only appeal to around 5% of the electorate, if that.

Finally, for me the point is that, in both of these by-elections, only just over a third of people even bothered to vote; without postal voting, that 37%/38% would probably have been nearer to 20%. The voters most interesting to me are those not presently energized to vote.

What do these results say about GE 2024? That Labour must be en route to victory, though a victory not welcomed by all, or even a majority, of the voters. A feeling of dull meaninglessness, perhaps. A hollow victory?

For the Conservative Party, these results must mean that the bulk of their MPs are on the way out. 50 may survive, maybe 100.

A few days ago. I missed that story.

The time may come when Israel faces thousands of such drones.

I agree with the first bit, but only partly with the second. Many 2019 Con Party voters seem to be switching, in despair, to Reform UK, but that would be only a small minority of the overall electorate. Look at the turnout figures from yesterday. Only a third (just over) of eligible voters even voted. Reform UK, with its limited “conservative nationalism” “cosplay”, its pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby attitude, and its semi-“libertarian” economics, will never inspire even a half of the voters. Maybe 10%, maybe 20%. I doubt that it will go higher.

The fact is that, even at Kingswood, where the result scarcely mattered in itself (a general election this year, and the seat then ceasing to exist), Reform UK only gathered in 13% of the votes, i.e. about 5% of all possible votes. The Wellingborough result was similar: 9.4% of votes cast, i.e. about 3% of all possible votes.

Only a fully-credible social-national party might be able to energise and inspire the British people. That party does not exist.

“Today, the Tories are only holding half the people who voted for them at the last general election, in 2019, and only a little more than one in three of the people who voted for Brexit, in 2016. These are supposed to be the party’s core supporters. But many of them are now abandoning Sunak in droves, running for the hills.

And do you blame them? Seriously? Given some of the other events this week it’s not hard to see why. For a start, Sunak’s failure to control Britain’s borders was reflected in the remarkable finding that just 1.3% of the illegal migrants who entered Britain on the small boats since 2018 have been removed from the country.

And then came the latest data on the dire state of the economy, which confirms Britain is in recession and suffering the longest hit to living standards since records began, in 1955. Contrary to Sunak’s pledge to deliver economic growth, this week we learned that throughout his first year in office Britain’s economy grew by just 0.1%, while GDP per capita —which adjusts for population growth — fell by 0.7%.

This, too, will prompt many voters to ask Sunak some tough questions. Where is the growth you promised? Where is the strong economy? And where is the growth the Treasury, the Office for Budget Responsibility, and countless other experts told us would surely arrive if Britain opened its doors to unprecedented immigration?

The answer is it’s nowhere to be seen, partly because rather than deliver the high-skill, high-wage, highly-selective, and highly productive immigration the Tories have been promising since Brexit they’ve instead delivered low-skill, low-wage, non-selective, and unproductive immigration from outside Europe, which has been shown to be a net fiscal cost rather than a net benefit to Western economies.

...more and more [voters] are turning off and tuning out. Just look at the rates of turnout at the latest by-elections. Labour and Keir Starmer are not setting Britain on fire, far from it; the Tories are staying home.

These voters aren’t idiots. They know they’ve been led down the garden path by a Conservative government and a Conservative prime minister which have routinely overpromised and underdelivered.

These voters want decent economic growth and an economic model which prioritises British people. But Rishi Sunak and the Tories have given them more of the same.

These voters want much lower and manageable rates of immigration. But Rishi Sunak and the Tories keep putting mass migration on steroids. And these voters want strong and secure borders and a government which prioritises the security of the British people. But Rishi Sunak and the Tories have lost control of our borders, largely because they refuse to reform laws and leave conventions which make it impossible to remove illegal migrants and foreign nationals who commit crime, as we saw with the shocking case of Abdul Ezedi.“

[Matt Goodwin, on his Substack blog]

In any case, the UK needs no immigration at all. It needs to educate and train real British people to a far higher level, and then provide suitable employment for them. British people, real British people.

Suitable employment, appropriate and decent pay; decent housing; decent transport; decent medical care; decent social care; also, decent architecture and town planning.

Defying the Kremlin can be dangerous. The story that Navalny “felt unwell after he went for a walk” is obviously unlikely.

The daytime temperature in that region today is about -20C. Cold weather for a stroll, even for a Russian.

As to Navalny himself, I knew nothing of him beyond what was occasionally on TV news or in the newspapers. I was unable to understand why he returned to Russia after he had recovered from having been poisoned in Russia and flown to Germany for treatment.

My conclusion (beyond the apparent fact that Navalny was a braver man than me— and a more foolish one, arguably) is that he had a huge amount of egotism. He probably wildly over-estimated his popularity in Russia (in fact only about 5% supported him), and may have thought that arriving in Moscow on a private jet with a horde of Western reporters on board would probably protect him, especially as thousands of his supporters (mostly Moscow-based) would be awaiting his arrival at Vnukovo (one of the four main airports in the Moscow region: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vnukovo_International_Airport).

The plane was diverted to Sheremetyevo Airport. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheremetyevo_International_Airport, thus bypassing the expected mass welcome.

I may be wrong, but I think that Navalny may have thought that his return to Russia would be akin to that of Lenin in 1917. However, Lenin was never in any danger of arrest and detention in 1917, and had not only supporters but an armed guard force at his historic speech at the Finlandsky Station in Petrograd. Also, the Tsarist Government had already effectively fallen. There was no-one to arrest him.

Navalny has, by reason of his imprisonment and probable murder, achieved the status of martyr, but had he ever become leader of Russia, might have been as harsh, and probably less effective, than Putin.

I am old enough to remember how the usually-wrong Western msm thought, in the 1980s, that Andropov would be “liberal” (mainly because he was said to like jazz). The same or similar was said in the late 1970s of the African tyrant Robert Mugabe (“well-educated” by Jesuits, and a “democrat” by African standards. So they said…). Indeed, look at how the globalist msm lauded thick-as-two-short-planks Nelson Mandela…

Well, there it is.

One interesting aspect to the news coverage in the UK today is that it has been so extensive. In a way, surprising, when Navalny had no real support base in Russia, and never had a real chance of deposing Putin.

Were I more of a conspiracy theorist than people think I am, I should suspect that the UK TV people are using the Navalny matter to talk less about yesterday’s by-election results.

Also, the Kiev-regime forces are crumbling on the Ukrainian front-line.

Many, even perhaps I myself, might think that a retaliatory strike by Israel on Gaza, immediately after the October 2023 incursion, meaning in the following few days, would probably fall into the “self-defence” and “proportionate” area (leaving aside the behaviour of the Israeli Jews since 1948), but what has happened since then is a cruel slaughter and devastation worse than the much-criticized Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto by German forces in 1943. The Germans did evacuate most of the non-combatant Jews before killing or capturing the rest (saboteurs, terrorists, and rebels) and then levelling the area.

According to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would still leave the Con Party with 117 MPs. Maybe. One or two points can make a big difference. For example, if the Con/Lab numbers were 23% and 45% respectively, the Cons would have only 97 MPs.

Also, these polls always over-estimate the Green vote. When and where (except at Brighton Pavilion) did the Greens get anywhere close to 8%? 5% is more usual; or lower.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

As to “the best Prime Minister“, terrible for Sunak, but hardly a ringing endorsement of Starmer either.

After Guantanamo, Bagram, Kabul, Abu Ghraib etc, the U.S. Government can say nothing about human rights abuses.

Well, anyone can make a “mathematical error”, as when a number of, say, six million becomes one of four million and then, later, one and a half million…anyone could make such a mistake, I suppose…

Adam Smith wrote about “the hidden hand“, but I don’t think he had this “hidden hand” in mind…

Interesting, but Britain First can never be the party Britain needs. Its pro-Jewish lobby, pro-Israel stance…that alone…

…and here is Emily Thornberry living the high life with a pack of Zionists in London, including the former Israeli Ambassador, Regev (centre of photo):

Labour, “the party for working people”??

For me, the main thing is to break the rigged “two main parties” system (scam). So if the Conservative Party is trampled upon and left almost powerless at GE 2024, good, even though that would be at the cost of a Labour Party “elected dictatorship” for up to 5 years. With one large party reduced to almost nothing, the System’s rhythm will be disrupted. No more the idea that “the other lot” will be better. With the Cons deflated, and the LibDems already on the floor, other ideas, social-national ideas, will come through, one way or the other.
