A remarkably stupid woman, who only became an MP on her back.

The cultural fall of the USA has been absolutely incredible.

The contamination, in the UK, has reached deeply into the police, the legal professions etc.

I shall be surprised if the Conservative Party has more than 100 seats this time next year; if it has over 150, I shall be astonished. If it has fewer than 50, I shall only be mildly surprised. I think between 50 and 100.

“This is the terrifying moment a teenage girl was sprayed in the face with ammonia and bleach in a random attack on her doorstep.

Shannelle Farrier was left in excruciating pain and needed her eyes washed out with several litres of water at hospital after brute David Nicholson threw the chemicals in her face. The shocking assault was captured on CCTV in the hall way of the 19-year-old’s flat in Newcastle.

She said: “I felt burning in my eyes and my mouth. I was screaming in pain yelling that something was in my eyes. I honestly thought that I was going to die and screaming out for help. It was instant, I didn’t know what was happening. They did it without rhyme or reason.

“There was a strong smell of bleach. We thought it was an acid attack. I eventually ended up unconscious. My friend had rang an ambulance who turned up in protective masks and hauled me in the shower to wash off as much of the substance as possible.“

Shannelle was rushed to Newcastle’s Royal Victoria Infirmary where her eyes were swilled with litres of water to return them to a normal Ph level. She spent a total of five hours being treated before she returned home. She said: “I felt violated. The attack happened in my own home.

“After that, I went to stay with my mother for months. For me, last Christmas was totally ruined. I spent the entire time worrying about my sight. I couldn’t leave my home, I had to quit my college course as I was too nervous to be outside. I was constantly looking over my shoulder.

Nicholson, of Hauxley Drive, Gosforth, Newcastle, was arrested a week after the attack. He later admitted assault. He was sentenced to 20 months, suspended for two years with rehabilitation requirements and an alcohol abstinence requirement at Newcastle Crown Court earlier this week (December 20).

The thug was also given a five-year restraining order to protect the victim. Shannelle has now slammed the sentence, claiming he got off lightly after he intended to cause harm.“

Britain has had enough of the “trans” nonsense. Anyone who imagines that Eddie Izzard is a woman is someone who should never be in any position of power or influence. Societal poison.

That is to the East of the centre of Gaza City.

It is hard to believe, but it is now very nearly 3 months since the Gaza conflict erupted. A truly “David and Goliath” struggle.

Late lighter note

I happened to watch a Celebrity Weakest Link show today on TV. As usual, the “celebrities” mostly knew almost nothing. The comedian Joe Pasquale was a deserving winner, but it was funny to see Jew-Zionist “activist” Tracy-Ann Oberman [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracy-Ann_Oberman] not only struggle in places with fairly simple questions but also get voted off, and then, it seemed to me, fume (though looking as if she was trying to disguise it, at least a little) about having been voted off.

Also, I may be wrong, but it seemed to me that she looked drunk as she walked off (the so-called “Walk of Shame”). I do not say that she was drunk, but she certainly looked (to me) as if she was, looking at her gait. Just my honest opinion based on what I saw, of course.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week one of my poorest scores ever, a miserable 3/10. Political journalist John Rentoul beat my score (with 6/10), a rare occurrence indeed. I only knew the answers to questions 5, 7, and 10.

Much of the “counter-terror” stuff in the UK is a fake, and a cover for repression of opinion unwanted by and disapproved by the System, or by special-interest groups such as —and mainly— the Jew-Zionist cabals (malicious nuisances such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, a kind of volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in the UK).

See also: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/05/30/one-mans-extremism-is-another-mans-struggle-for-liberty-and-justice/.

More “trans” nonsense. Why are so few people, even now, pointing out the sheer oddness of the fact that an absolute tidal wave of this stuff has crashed over the UK in, mainly, the past few years? What is happening? What is being encouraged to happen? What is behind it all?

I do not say “never believe the experts“, but the fact is that they (and, more so yet, scribblers pretending to be expert) are usually wrong, especially when they try to predict the future, or when unexpected events happen.

Examples? Professor Lindemann [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_Lindemann,_1st_Viscount_Cherwell], Churchill’s scientific guru, thought that rockets as weapons could never work unless huge and propelled by solid fuel. Shortly after that, the V-1 and then V-2 rockets started to explode in and around London and elsewhere. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-1_flying_bomb; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-2_rocket.

The recent “Covid” “panicdemic” showed up ignorance of the supposed experts of the so-called SAGE committee (I called it “DUMB”— Department Under Matt and Boris).

There are, actually hundreds of similar examples, especially if you move from scientific-milieu examples to those of politics and economics. Lenin thought that the Bolsheviks would come to power when the 1905 “Revolution” (uprising) was taking place. Wrong… and Lenin did not think that the Tsarist state of Russia would fall as a result of the first (Spring) Revolution of 1917. Wrong again…

Probably a poor-looking place even before the destruction, but these were people’s homes, now blasted by some of the war crimes of the Israeli military machine.

At first, I myself believed that the 2022 devastation in Bucha (a small township or suburb very close to, or effectively part of, Kiev) was a real event, albeit one committed by poorly-disciplined allies of Russia (Chechens etc). It is claimed that hundreds of civilians were killed and/or tortured.

Now, I wonder whether it ever happened at all (as reported). The much-photographed devastation seems to have been mainly in one small section of a single street; burnt-out Russian vehicles, destroyed single-storey houses etc. Hard to get to the truth. It may lie somewhere in the middle.

She seems to be mentally disturbed, and/or perhaps a drug-abuser. God help the USA (and Europe) if that crazed woman becomes U.S. President.

Her Wikipedia entry [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikki_Haley] contains a couple of interesting facts. Turns out that she is an Indian (Sikh), and that her personal wealth, estimated at USD $1M in 2018, had jumped to USD $8M only 2-3 years later, in 2021. How?

“A restaurant that drowned three hundred cats a month to fuel Vietnam’s cruel meat trade has been closed for good.

The Gia Bảo restaurant in Thai Nguyen city, in the country’s northeast, ran a lucrative trade selling cats, likely including stolen pets, drowned in a bucket one after another.

For five years, Pham Quoc Doanh, 37, ran the establishment after struggling to feed his family selling ‘other normal food and drinks’.

‘It was then I tried selling cat meat since there was no other available restaurant serving this in the area,’ he told Metro.

Doanh reached out to the Humane Society International, campaigning to ban the trade in Vietnam, who offered him a one-time grant to set up a grocery store instead.

On December 6, he symbolically tore down the banners outside his slaughterhouse and restaurant and began a new life. 

‘For a while now I have felt a genuine desire to leave the cruel cat meat business and switch to something else as soon as possible. When I think of all the thousands of cats I’ve slaughtered and served up here over the years, it’s upsetting,’ he said.

‘Cat theft is so common in Vietnam that I know many of the cats sold here were someone’s loved family companion, and I feel very sorry about that.’

An estimated one million cats are killed each year for their meat in Vietnam, according to the charity – despite 71 per cent of the population favouring a ban.“

[Daily Mail]

Well, my opinion of Vietnam has never been very high (I admit that I have never actually been there), but at least 71% of the population apparently want this trade banned, and they do seem (from what I read today) to be taking steps in the right direction.

I knew the answers to questions 1, 2, 5, 6, and 10.

I feel that, with the passing into history of the late Queen, the Monarchy in Britain has ceased to be of any real relevance.

Charles has become a total —and very obvious— mouthpiece for the international conspiracy.

Please refer to previous comment…

That would result, using Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] in a massive Labour majority of (about) 352: Labour 501 MPs, Conservatives 74, LibDems 35. The only thing keeping the Con Party going would be its history (now trashed anyway), its assets (if any) and its name-recognition among the public.

I notice that it might also mean an undeserved boost to the LibDems, tripling their number of MPs.

Despite that polling, indicating that Reform UK might still win no seats (despite polling nationwide a point higher than the LibDems; more proof that FPTP voting is not working now in the UK), this may not be the end of the show. I think that political academic Matt Goodwin might be right in predicting a surge in support for the rather pathetic latest Farage vehicle (now notionally led by Richard Tice).

If, as Goodwin predicts might happen, Reform UK does surge to, say, 15%, and if the extra 5 points come from Con Party former voters, then the number of Con Party seats reduces to about 30, but Labour would gain, and not Reform UK, which would still be left without any MPs despite, in that scenario, scoring one and a half times the votes of the LibDems, who would end up with about 43 MPs. The voting system is broken.

The reason of course, is that (as with UKIP in 2015) Reform UK has a fairly even level of support nationwide, without the concentrations of votes in some constituencies that the LibDems have.

In fact, to start getting MPs, Reform UK will have to achieve about 18% across the board. If those votes all came from former Con voters, the Con Party vote would have to decline to 14%. In that unlikely (?) scenario, the Conservatives would be left with about 10 MPs and might fairly be said to have been wiped out.

Incidentally, on 18%, Reform UK would still only get about 1 MP.

If Reform UK can take Labour votes as well, a very different picture. Still a huge Labour majority, but the Conservatives left with a rather more respectable 80-90 seats (and LibDems with about 50). Reform UK would still only get one or two MPs, however. Very unjust (not that I have much time for Reform UK, especially after Farage and Tice recently doormatting for Israel and the Jewish lobby).

I take Goodwin’s point though (I should do— after all, I have been making it for years myself): in a situation where both main System parties are determined to do pretty much the opposite of what most voters want, even sheep-like voters start to think how to protest, in the absence of a credible social-national party. Former Con voters may abstain, or may vote (mainly) for Reform UK, maybe LibDem, or other parties; Labour dissenters who dislike Starmer and his Labour Party may protest by (mainly) voting LibDem or Green.

Both main System parties are signed up to the transnational conspiratorial agenda— funnelling blacks and browns into Europe and other formerly almost-entirely white European societies (Australia, New Zealand etc). Also, signed up to the whole globalization project, to the biosecurity pseudo-health state idea, and to the cashless society idea (thus allowing the “central power” to de-bank people, cut off funds etc at will, eventually, e.g. to punish those who say or write the “wrong” things).

At present, GE 2024 is still a year ahead, probably. The only fairly certain fact is that this Government has run out of road, and is hanging on because it cannot think of anything else to do. Indian money-juggler Sunak is as misplaced in his office as were “Boris”-idiot, Theresa May, and David Cameron-Levita; ah, I actually forgot that ridiculous “ho”, Liz Truss. She too.

Sunak will probably decamp to California by 2025 at latest. Remember that nasty little bastard Nick Clegg? He is now living in an affluent suburb near San Francisco.

We are “ruled” by cosmopolitan poseurs of that sort, totally corrupt, and their venality equalled by their incompetence.

Yes, but at present there are nearly a million unwanted migrant-invaders coming to live in the UK every year, even after emigrants are taken into account. That makes a continuing and worsening housing situation inevitable.

In a word, yes…

“Ukraine” (Kiev regime)— a failed state, a non-state.

A considerable part of the Ukrainian population might be fairly described as “blockheads” (even before they get drunk).

Please refer to previous comment.

I do not know the politics of Highgate, particularly, so cannot really comment.

Incidentally, that tweeter, John Edwards, a retired fire chief, at one time quite a few years ago would chat to me on Twitter (a pack of Jews had me expelled in 2018), but later had his ear bent to the extent that he tweeted to people that I was “a dreadful fascist“; yet here I am supporting his right to freedom of expression. #MoralHighGround…

Anyone who votes Labour in 2024 expecting any kind of positive change in the UK from that would have to be a total idiot. However, the present Sunak Government is just so hated and despised by almost everyone (my guess, around 85%+) that, in a basically binary electoral/political system, Labour, despite the fact that it offers —realistically— nothing, is almost certain to win big next year.

Britain is now so screwed, and in almost every way, that only a total change to a social-national rulership, combined with a massive cultural and other purge, will save it, if it can be saved.

Hancock should have been tarred and feathered, along with all those in and around government promulgating the absurd “lockdowns” and other “Covid”-related nonsense.

Instead, he is given hundreds of thousands of pounds to eat snails and witchetty grubs in that ridiculous “Jungle” TV show.

My assessment of Hancock from 2019: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/09/09/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-matt-hancock-story/.

Well, dear readers, was I right or wrong?

“Israeli-born geneticist believes the Turkish villages of Iskenaz, Eskenaz and Ashanaz were part of the original homeland for Ashkenazic Jews.

New research suggests that the majority of the world’s modern Jewish population is descended mainly from people from ancient Turkey, rather than predominantly from elsewhere in the Middle East.

The new research suggests that most of the Jewish population of northern and eastern Europe – normally known as Ashkenazic Jews – are the descendants of Greeks, Iranians and others who colonized what is now northern Turkey more than 2000 years ago and were then converted to Judaism, probably in the first few centuries AD by Jews from Persia. At that stage, the Persian Empire was home to the world’s largest Jewish communities.

According to research carried out by the geneticist, Dr Eran Elhaik of the University of Sheffield, over 90 per cent of Ashkenazic ancestors come from that converted partially Greek-originating ancient community in north-east Turkey.“

[The Independent]

In other words, they have no right (based on claims of ancient settlement) to the lands now known as Israel and Palestine.

There should be an institute somewhat similar to SS-Ahnenerbe which could take DNA and other evidence, in order to investigate such theories and claims.

Should not be too difficult. After all, Zelensky has ripped off tens of millions, maybe hundreds of millions, of US dollars, has a $50M villa in Florida, another luxury villa in Italy, probably others as well.

I missed that poll. Interesting to see where the people are on the migration invasion.

As to Suella Braverman herself, though, she is, just like a more determined Priti Patel, all talk. Also, and also like Priti Patel, she is another Israel-lobby puppet. She is a flash in the pan. When the Conservative Party goes down at the 2024 General Election, she will either become a backbencher again or, possibly, Conservative Party leader but of a Conservative Party with 50-100 seats, and in possibly permanent opposition.

The fakery of Starmer-Labour, but as it stands Labour is pushing at an open door; it would take a miracle to save the Government of Indian money-juggler Sunak.

Gavin Barwell is an idiot. “Net migration” is certainly not “essential for our economy“. In any case, any benefits of economic growth are, at present, going to, at most, 5% of the population; arguably to <1%.

I, obviously, support that, but such a pause would not deal with the existing mixing of populations within the UK.

For me, the aim is to create a foundation for a higher-level race-form in the far future. The only basis that can exist for that is an entirely or almost entirely European population, as existed in the UK until quite recently (say 1970s).

Turning off the tap is a start (if it ever happens), but is not enough.

“Exclusive: Wokeness at the heart of “anti-woke” Kemi Badenoch’s dept:

Civil servants held a diversity meeting discussing the book Why I don’t talk to white people about race, and were encouraged to keep the discussions private. The Department for Business and Trade’s Race, Ethnicity and Cultural Heritage (REACH) Network, a group representing minority staff, held the discussion on 16 November which was advertised as revolving around “topics relating to race, what it means to be anti-racist, and how to be an impactful ally”. An email from REACH to DBT staff said the “discussion groups are a safe space to discuss what allyship of ethnic minorities really means” and “will be based around Reni Eddo-Lodge’s book Why I No longer Talk to White People about Race”.

@GoodwinMJ, told The Telegraph: “For all of Kemi Badenoch’s rhetoric attacking Critical Race Theory, it is now clear that this divisive ideology has captured her own department.

Whilst civil servants should not waste their work time discussing these radical narratives around race, it is up to ministers to put an end to this. The Conservative Party has had thirteen years to clamp down on officials who promote concepts like CRT, yet nothing ever seems to change. Instead of talking the talk, as Kemi and other Conservative MPs sometimes like to do on these issues, it is time for ministers to walk the walk.”

In October 2020 Ms Badenoch gave a speech in the House of Commons in which she described Critical Race Theory as a “dangerous trend in race relations… an ideology that sees my blackness as victimhood and their whiteness as oppression.”

The REACH meeting on 16 November took place between noon and 1pm, and was the first of six sessions set to be held by the group over the next six months. During the online meeting one official claimed that “four or five people in the last year” left DBT “out of pure frustration with the fact that they weren’t advancing and they weren’t growing to the same extent as their white counterparts”.

Another civil servant responded to the comment, saying: “I think it’s met with that defensiveness as well. It’s like the first reaction is to defend the position and state why but there isn’t a defence.”

During the discussion, which focused on racism and diversity, one official said: “I’m a trade advisor… and so often what I have done is connect what I believe in terms of the network with what my day job is… I work a lot to support ethnic minority businesses because I’m a trade advisor and so indirectly, so what I’m urging most people to think about is how can you connect your day job to being an ally and what does that look like?”

At the end of the discussion several civil servants made comments about preventing leaks from the meeting. One mandarin said: “Can I also just stress the importance of keeping the conversations that we’ve had here today to respect the anonymity… because the only way that we can foster these conversations in a safe space [sic] if we protect that.”

They continued: “And the reason why that I’m saying this is to be honest, that there has been articles that’s been posted online and in UK newspapers about what we do in a network, not just our network, but also other networks have been targeted. So it is really important to think about that. I’m not saying you cannot share what we’ve discussed in theory, but just don’t attribute it to a particular person so that we can continue to have these conversations.”

The comment was followed up by another official who said: “Just to add to what [civil servant] said, it’s the reason why we don’t record calls”.”

The “culture war” will probably, eventually, become a real civil war. Not today, and not tomorrow, but somewhere down the line. One triggering factor will be the ever-encroaching tide against free speech and freedom of expression. After all, when ideas are prevented from being expressed, the river takes another course.

As announced yesterday, the magistrates’ court trial to which I was made subject went badly for me. I cannot blog about that at present.

I am presently due to be sentenced at the end of January, or in February, of 2024. After that, I have 15 working days, i.e. three weeks, in which to serve any Notice of Appeal. Any appeal hearing, before a Circuit Judge (sitting with two magistrate-assessors), would be a complete rehearing, which would probably not happen until the Autumn of 2024, perhaps not until 2025.

The wrongheadedness of the “austerity” drive since 2010, which badly damaged the UK economy, especially in the years 2010-2015, but was sold to the unthinking British people as “necessary”.

That was a long time ago. The world is now overpopulated, and particularly with non-Europeans. A reduction of the world’s population to about 10% of what it is now is very desirable, but of course the remaining population has to be mainly ethnically European.

“You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your
fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who
have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the
past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon
the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in
which their bodies have long decayed.

Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can
change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has
inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will
and courage.

You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass
your blood on to your children, for you are a member of
the chain of generations that reaches from the past into
eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent
must do its part so that the chain is never broken.

But if your blood has traits that will make your children
unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the
heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will
lives.”

Well, this week I scored 5/10, the same as political journalist John Rentoul. Different questions, though. I got the answers to questions 4, 6, 7, 9, and 10.

Neil’s headline conclusion is right, but the rest of the screed is doubtful.

It is also disappointing to see a former editor of the Sunday Times using the word “graveness” when he means “gravity”…

It may not be “wrong” to use “graveness“, but it does read as only semi-literate.

“A ‘cat killer’ caught kicking an innocent pet like a football has admitted animal cruelty after MailOnline footage of his sick act went viral.

Terry Bree, 71, from Leamington Spa, was spotted on a video doorbell lashing out at Lenny, a 21-year-old cat who died three weeks later.

The father-of-five admitted causing unnecessary suffering to the animal.”

Deserves a good kicking himself.

“The foul allegations of rape have been dropped by the Israeli government. The forty beheaded babies has been downscaled to one dead baby, not beheaded, and killed by persons unknown.

Two thirds of Israelis killed on October 7 were military personnel. The killers of the remaining one third are definitively revealed to have been in part the Israeli armed forces themselves.

Those with influence who spread the propaganda to the contrary stand exposed as War Criminals and now much blood stains their character for ever. It is a spot which will not out. #Gaza_War #GazaCeasefire #GazaHolocaust #GazaHospital.”

Six years ago, I wrote this: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/10/09/football-lads-alliance-march/.

Looks like not much has changed in that respect in six years…

South African scientists were working along similar lines in the 1980s. I believe that the results of that work were later sent or taken to Israel.

Incredibly, the distance from the northern border of Gaza to Tel Aviv is only 44 miles.

Ha. While not endorsing that tweet particularly, the point about the uselessness of the “security and intelligence” bods echoes my blog over the years. Not just SIS and MI5, but also the armed forces. What are they for, now? They cannot even stop the cross-Channel migration-invasion, let alone the wider mass immigration influx. The prospect of war with France, Spain, Germany, Denmark has receded into history. So what are the Navy and other forces for? To ferry yet more invaders to our shores?

As for SIS, and MI5, they still seem largely stuck in the era of “burgling the War Office safe”, or that of the key spy or defector (Penkovsky, Lyalin, Gordievsky etc), the existence of which will change everything (but never does).

Irrelevant in a fast-changing world.

Alarming.

Well, this week another narrow victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 5/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 4, 6, and 7.

Horrible.

Prophetic, but the British voters were more interested in house prices and what sport team won the latest game or match.

Look at the result, 50 years on; Britain is scarcely a nation at all now.

God, what an evil old cow. Pity a lucky strike did not finish both of them at once.

Ha ha!

I, needless to say (?), do not support Islamism, but Jew-Zionism has to be opposed, not only in Palestine but also in the outside world.

I have to say that I agree with that. Few indeed really “choose” to sleep rough; maybe a few hardcore alcoholics. The answer to the aesthetic and public order problem is to deal with the housing crisis: stop millions of unwanted “invaders” entering this country, build housing for British people (only), clamp down on rogue landlordism and buy-to-let parasitism.

I agree with Suella Braverman on one point only, the need to stop the migration-invasion, but after all she herself is both of alien origin and also, like Priti Patel before her, has not actually done anything practical to stop it.

Add to that the fact that (again like Priti Patel) Suella Braverman is in the pocket of the Jewish/Israeli lobby (Suella Braverman is even married to a Jew), and that is all I need to hear. “I’m out“.

This is not warfare as Europeans understand it; it is more like the wars of annihilation the Jews waged in ancient times, as seen in the Old Testament. That is their mentality. Tribal supremacy, as seen in most of the Jewish religious festivals.

So when is he leaving? Or is he not, but just making up some meaningless “fear” whining, like so many other Jews resident in the UK? As if an ultra-wealthy Jew in London really feels “unsafe“! It’s patent nonsense.

See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyal_Ofer.

The horrible Jewish actress Maureen Lipman was accompanied by a bodyguard this past week (and, of course, photographed by the Press…), also saying that she felt afraid.

Why do “they” always have to pretend to be “victims”, even when, like the Israeli Jews, dropping bombs on defenceless schools, hospitals, family homes, and little children?

A reminder of what “they” do…

Saturday quiz

Well, a very modest 3/10 this week, but the questions were, I think, a little more difficult than usual, looking at political journalist John Rentoul, who scored zero. I only knew the answers to questions 1, 4, and 10. I thought that I knew number 7 as well but, as football fans say, I “hit the post” and was mistaken.

The suffering and terror of the Gazan people is terrible. Two million civilians, half of them children or teenagers. The animal population, including cats, is also there, suffering with them..

Meanwhile the fanatical Jew-Zionists (though a small minority of all Jews currently resident here in the UK) cheer on “their” state of Israel as it does such terrible actions; the same also whine that they themselves are “in fear” from, it seems, people disapproving of them and Israel.

Of course, until 1948 Palestine was under British (international Mandate) rule, but as soon as Israel was proclaimed as a state, there began the mass killings, ethnic cleansing etc known as the Nakba. Seizure of land, houses, and apartments from Palestinian Arabs by Jews. It still continues, though more gradually. The Jews also punish the families and relatives of Palestinian activists or operatives by demolishing their homes.

Maybe that is what “they” really want…

Evil posing as “the Good”…

“Loony Toons“—a reminder…

It’s not me

Readers of the blog are advised that I was expelled from Twitter in 2018, after a long campaign against me by the “usual suspects” (Jews connected to the fake “charity” known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”). I have therefore not posted on Twitter/X since mid-2018.

I now see that one of the several people on Twitter/X with the same name as me (Ian Millard) is posting comment related to political and other matters. His account is “@IanMillard100”. I have no reason to believe that he is deliberately posing as me, but it occurs to me that some readers might imagine that he is me. In a word, no.

Why, I wonder, have Jews been so disliked and/or despised over the centuries? Why have so many great composers, writers, poets, political leaders etc been “antisemites”? It’s certainly a puzzle…

#Irony #Satire.

I have no idea whether that is so, but the Israeli forces have always been very trigger-happy, and never seem to care about the casualties of their callousness, so maybe the Israelis just opened fire on both their Palestinian targets and, as “collateral damage”, anyone who was in the vicinity.

Ah. Just saw this:

Worth listening to.

Israel, a state created out of the sweepings of the ghettoes of Europe and elsewhere, a state created largely by terrorism and intimidation, theft of land, and ethnic cleansing. Now we see the result.

God protect those, including animals, under such a bombardment.

Christian babies quite likely to be killed by…”them”…. Now where have I read about such events, in ancient history?

She is right, and about Elliot Colburn very right (except that his surname is “Colburn” not “Coldburn“). Here he is, the careerist little twit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliot_Colburn. Never really had a job; no profession, either.

Well, his MP-odyssey will soon be at an end. Looking at the election results for his constituency, he will be toast within a year; he will then have to get a real job, if anyone would give him one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carshalton_and_Wallington_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2010s

Andrew Bridgen is considered very dangerous by the System, because he is an MP, not someone opining on Twitter/X or Facebook. The System will be doing everything possible to have him removed as MP and replaced in 2024 by a Con Party or Lab Party drone who will make the “expected” noises. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Bridgen.

Looking at Bridgen’s constituency, it was Labour from 1997 until Bridgen was elected in 2010. His vote-share has increased steadily since then, and in 2019 was 62.8%: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_West_Leicestershire_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2010s.

Looking also at the present political climate, and the great unpopularity of the present government, it may be that Bridgen has as much chance as a “Reclaim Party” candidate as he would have had as a “Conservative” Party one.

Reclaim Party is a dead duck, in my opinion, but Bridgen has a high public profile, and it is just about possible that, if the Conservative Party vote in the constituency collapses, or reduces by 40%-50%, and if the Labour Party vote only increases slightly, that Bridgen might just manage to come through the middle and win by a short head. A long-shot, but just about possible.

All part of an overarching “agenda” (conspiracy).

I do not disagree on some of what Goodwin often expresses, but anyone who doormats for Israel and the Jewish lobby (as Goodwin does in that discussion, and in some of his tweets) cannot be respected by me…

Looks hopeful, as far as it goes…

I agree, in outline, with that tweet by Goodwin.

I would normally agree with that, but can think of a couple of advantages all the same. Hm, think that I shall lie doggo on that question.

About 25% (mostly over 70s).

“Brits asked: “Which side in the Israeli‑Palestinian conflict do you sympathize with more?”

All Brits: Israel 21% Palestine 17% Both equally 29% Dont know 33%

Labour voters: Israel 9% Palestine 27% Both 35%

Conservatives Israel 39% Palestine 6% Both 27%

18-24 yr olds Israel 11% Palestine 39% Both 16%

Pensioners Israel 37% Palestine 11% Both 36%.”

There should be an MPs’ section (result would be “Israel 90%, Palestine 10%“, looking at how many are either bribed or intimidated by the Jew-Zionist lobby).

The true face of Zionism?

Those American (mainly) Jew settlers or colonists are far worse even than the old-style or “Sabra” Israelis.

Incredible that, in 2023, a large organization such as Currys is still unaware that “Jack Monroe” is a total fraud and “grifter”. Still, if you have ever been in any of their stores, you can see that Currys is badly-run, and only saved from being hopeless by the skills of some of their staff, who however, are rather poorly-paid (underpaid).

“Jack Monroe” runs dozens if not hundreds of Twitter/X “sock accounts”, most of which are very obvious.

Incredibly, “Jack Monroe ” now has 507 utter mugs sending her between £3.50 and £44 per month via Patreon. Each. At one time she had over 800, but that fell back to below 400 as she was exposed as a fraud. Seems that another 100+ idiots have signed up in the past few months. Truly it is said that… there’s a new mug born every minute…

Why does some American patriot not do what has to be done?

At first, the rockets sent by the Palestinian resistance were little more than fireworks, but over the years and decades the technology has improved. It seems that now at least some of those rockets are quite powerful.

Israel, for all its military might, and for all its money, and its control/influence in other countries, is doomed in the long run. Demographics alone, in the region as a whole, would seem to indicate that.

Israel may have powerful weapons, including nuclear ones, but those weapons may not be enough to save it, in the end.

Perhaps a foretaste of what will eventually happen on a far bigger scale.

Cleverly, with all the erudition and wisdom of his “McDegree” in Hospitality Management, explains that firing rockets etc at civilian habitations is “terrorism”. Unless, of course, the shooters are British or American (or Israeli), and the civilians Palestinian Arabs, Iraqis, Afghans, Serbs or (in WW2) Germans etc…

I have to admit that I would never have guessed that the Arabs would be able both to co-ordinate such attacks and also keep the date and time of them secret. Presumably, the Israelis were also not expecting this.

Quelle surprise…

Again, quelle surprise— Israel almost always hits civilian targets.

In one or two decades, something a hundred times greater will probably happen, whatever Israel now does. Israel is doomed.

If the Palestinian Arabs were to create very deep tunnels, coming to the surface somewhere in Central Israel, it might be a gamechanger.

I seem to recall that the KGB had a directorate mainly tasked with digging tunnels. I wonder where those people are now.

Maybe the 15th? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KGB#Directorates.

Possible/plausible “conspiracy theory”: the Israeli ruling circles knew of the Hamas plan, but allowed it to happen, “throwing under a bus” their own Jewish inhabitants, in order to be able invade Gaza as a form of “self-defence”. That is what, mutatis mutandis, Roosevelt did before and after Pearl Harbor.

The Israeli population must be panic-stricken.

If the term “war criminal” means anything, here it is. Untermensch.

Look at the Old Testament. They started ethnic cleansing that long ago.

What is important about the events of the past 24 hours is not the statistical rate of attrition, not the damage done, and not even which side eventually “wins” in the short term (bearing in mind Israel’s huge military superiority, that can hardly be in doubt), but the fact that an incursion like that seen has happened at all.

Hamas has broken something now— the sense of effortless Israeli military might, and the idea that any invasions or incursions into Israeli territory will be slight, only in one area, and easily repulsed.

In the longer term (i.e. after 2023), that may prove to be the most significant fact about these events. The Palestinian Arabs now know what is or might be possible, no matter what Israeli/Jewish repression follows the current events.

This may just be the beginning of the end for Israel.
