Olly Robbins has destroyed Keir Starmer. He didnāt just bring a smoking gun, he brought a smoking bazooka. https://t.co/FpX2gRTdHe
[“Extraordinary testimony from Oliver Robbins to the foreign affairs select committee:
he was subject to āconstant pressureā from No 10 when he arrived in the foreign office to get Peter Mandelson in post asap.
fcdo was urged to allow Mandelsonās appointment as ambo without usual vetting process – but dept pushed back and it eventually went ahead.
Downing Street took a “dismissive” attitude to vetting & Mandelson was given access to fcdo, low classification ID & higher classification briefings before he was actually granted clearance.
he confirms he had not told anybody in No 10 about the UKSV decision.”]
Watching Olly Robbins' evidence, it's hard to escape the conclusion that he has been treated shamefully by Keir Starmer.
The British people have a unique, historic opportunity.

That translates to a Commons with about 355 Reform UK MPs (solid majority), 78 Greens (very weak official Opposition), 74 LibDems, 49 Cons, 45 SNP, and 23 Lab, meaning that 380 persons currently sitting as Labour MPs are not so far from losing their jobs, losing their status, and losing their salaries, expenses, perks etc. Once again, on those figures Starmer would lose his own seat.
This is actually a more devastating clip. Ed M literally acknowledges Starmer had enough evidence presented to him not to have appointed Mandelson. Which is a direct contradiction of his āI didnāt knowā line. https://t.co/iK3nobn5cW
Says it all. The only mistake in that 3-4 minute clip is where he says that Starmer is a solicitor (he’s a barrister).
In politics thereās a Wiley Cayote moment where it becomes clear – even to a PMās allies – that the established facts make their position untenable. But thereās still a brief lag between them realising, and going. Starmer ran off the cliff today. Soon he will have to look down.
Both System parties are running out of road, indeed effectively have run out of road.
All voters on 7 May should vote elsewhere than Lab or Con— whether Reform UK, the loonie fake-Greens, Independent candidates, even the ridiculous LibDems led by a show-off buffoon.
For the red squirrel problem, breed and/or release pine martens, who prey only on the greys (not a full or final solution to the decline in the red squirrel population, but would stop the steep decline).
As to the ever-reducing proportion of real (white, European) British people in Britain, another solution, or other solutions, may be required.
When I lived for several months in Egypt, about 28 years ago, I realized myself, and also was told by others, that the locals not only are careless about the lives and welfare of animals, birds, and sea-life, but actually take pleasure in hurting and killing them. You may or may not decide that the blame lies with backward Islamic culture (they might have developed that way under some other religion/culture), but that is how they are.
Many of the other backward peoples of the Earth are no better and, now that we no longer control them via European imperial rule, we cannot ameliorate, in “their own countries”, the symptoms of their backwardness. What we can do, however, given the will, is to prevent them coming to the UK and other parts of Europe, and also remove or eliminate those already here.
Again though. What a weird way to say it. Admired? If someone admires you – you owe them nothing. Itās not a transaction. Admiring someone doesnāt mean you owe them āloyaltyā.

[“This is a man who desires nothing more than to be admired, whose entire shtick revolves around presenting himself as a hero worthy of envy and emulation (lest we forget, he ‘identifies with Gandhi and Martin Luther King’). To people like Maugham, any perceived diminution of what they believe to be their exalted status feels like a mortal attack, which is why every loss must be spun as a win, and black must be made to be white if the facts threaten his self-image.
He’s just the latest in a long line of people on social media who think they’re dealing me a fatal blow by telling me I’ve lost popularity, that my legacy is tarnished or that former fans hate me. None of these people appear to grasped yet that I’m completely indifferent to being disliked by people I’ve never met, especially those I do not respect because of their online behaviour or what I believe to be their irrational and illiberal views.
Maugham is a textbook narcissist who can’t believe that everyone else doesn’t live life with an unceasing thirst for validation from complete strangers. In spite of the fact that we’ve never met, and that as the years have rolled by I’ve been very open about the fact that I find his public behaviour increasingly bizarre, he seems to genuinely believe that the loss of his approval will cause me anguish. In reality, it’s a welcome source of ongoing entertainment, so long may he continue.“]
I wish people in this country would not use Yiddish words in ordinary discourse but, leaving that aside, J.K. Rowling is quite right about that Maugham person. Anyone who (like me) saw his appearance a few years ago on Christmas University Challenge (alumni version of the famous TV quiz show) could not fail to be struck by Maugham’s combination of massive self-esteem and equally huge ignorance on pretty much any topic or question.
I fear that, in this country, the status of “KC” (King’s Counsel), has become as devalued as that of “Professor” and others.

[“Hi all, I’ve just reactivated social media to deliver important news. I am charged with supporting terrorism and face trial in January 2026, London after publishing ananti-Zionist legal analysis on X on the legal right to armed resistance to Israeli genocide.
The Bar Standards Board@barstandards, professional regulators of barristers, are relying on the Terrorism Act to bring this prosecution against me as a barrister, upon demands made by the UK Lawyers for Israel (@UKLFI – a notorious Zionist lobby group) despite there being no police involvement.
This is a massive expansion of the use and scope of the Terrorism Act and is part of a systematic and widespread effort by British regulators of professionals, including academics, doctors and nurses tosilence and punish professionals, by issuing substantial financial penalties and stripping professionals of their practicing license, after they speak out or take action against Israel’s genocide of Palestinians. If we donāt push back now, British regulators will be given free rein to continue prosecuting lawyers and other professionals under the draconian Terrorism Act, even without police involvement, taking the UK further into fascist territory.
On 20-21st January, my trial will be heard at the Bar Tribunal and Adjudication Service, London where my legal team will push back against this authoritarian repression of free speech within the legal profession by Zionist institutions providing cover for Israelās atrocities against Palestinians. I have instructed barrister Franck Magennis of @gardencourtlaw to represent me in this case with the explicit instruction to defend my case in a way that does maximum damage to the racist ideology of Zionism.
We have some important updates for all who are following this case: Update 1: The Islamic Human Rights Commission have filed a request to UN Special Rapporteurs to investigate the Bar Standard Board‘s misuse of the Terrorism Act.
Update 2: The evidence in this case has now been filed. The witness statement of Ousman Noor as well as the as the expert reports of Dr. Ralph Wilde and Dr. Maung Zarni are now publicly available (link below).
Update 3: Ousman will be speaking at the Bristol Palestine Film Festival on Saturday 29th November after the screening of Censoring Palestine, on the use of Terrorism Act to penalise lawyers speaking out against Israelās genocide of Palestinians. You can buy tickets at https://bristolpff.org.uk/2025/10/04/censoring-palestine/
Finally, we’re extremely grateful to all who have contributed to the crowdfunder on this case to push back against Zionist control over the British legal system and profession.
He is being “prosecuted” by the same pack of Zionist Jews that attacked me the same way in 2016. At the time, the retired circuit judge who chaired the 5-member Tribunal called my case “unprecedented”. It was the template for many of examples of Jewish “lawfare” against not only barristers, but also solicitors, doctors, pharmacists etc.

Nick Griffin blog
Nick Griffin has now appeared in court, privately prosecuted by the malicious Jew-Zionist cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”]. He has written a blog post about it, and particularly noting the part played by the lying bastard called Silverman (aka “Slitherman”):
As is his right, Griffin applied, via his legal representatives, for the Crown Prosecution Service [CPS] to take over the private prosecution and then discontinue the prosecution. This was denied, but it is interesting that the CPS (which had already declined to prosecute Griffin officially) did not decide to take over the prosecution and so make it an official prosecution. It therefore remains a private prosecution by a pressure group which is, effectively, a volunteer Jewish arm of the Israeli Embassy in London.
By reason of the maximum sentence upon any conviction, Nick Griffin’s case has now been sent from the magistrates’ court for trial at the Crown Court. When any trial will be is unknown. There are already Crown Court trials being set down for dates as late as (days in) 2029.

That former Labour press officer is still mainly in the “two main parties” ping-pong mindset; he is not alone— many others also still think like that.
Still, he is correct in his basic thesis, as I see it— that governments exist to govern, and today that means not just sitting in the seat of power and “defending the realm” from invasion etc (something which, taking it in a wide sense, has anyway not been done for at least 20 years), but actually accomplishing things for the people, and making them feel, if not “happy”, then at least content.
Starmer-stein’s government was doomed pretty much from the start.
“This is the young mum who found herself on a nightmare first date with a fitness instructor which ended in a police chase and a Ā£250,000 pile-up that left seven police officers in hospital.

Despite Courtney’s protests, Iranian-born Azarbonyad put his foot down and led police on a terrifying high speed pursuit through Gateshead and onto the A1M towards Newcastle.”

“Last month Azarbonyad appeared at Newcastle Magistrates’ Court where he pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, failing to stop twice and having no licence and no insurance during the crash.

A couple of points. Firstly, note that all three police “officers” involved are still in the police, incredibly. Secondly, note the appallingly-poor colloquial English (“bum“; “getting off“) used by the My London reporter, one Callum Cuddeford.

“Cool. People should learn about how virtually every slave sent to UK colonies or the US was SOLD TO WHITE PEOPLE BY BLACK SLAVERS. They should also learn about Britain’s role in ending the international slave trade, so the BLACK SLAVERS had to sell their slaves to Arabs.

Finally, they should learn about modern slavery, where the slavers are almost exclusively black and brown people. Libyan slave trade below. But of course, Jovan doesn’t want any of that.

Also, there were “indentured servants” in Virginia and elsewhere, white British people sent to the Americas as —in effect— slaves for a fixed period: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentured_servitude.
Another aspect the “Good Law Project” fails to note is the very considerable Jewish involvement in the trade in black African slaves.
Incidentally, that African shown in the first tweet was the failed Labour candidate for the Clacton constituency at the 2024 General Election, and was soundly beaten by Nigel Farage of Reform UK; he ended up with a mere 16.2% of the vote, and in a poor third place: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clacton_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

As for the “Good Law Project”, it is the vehicle of half-Jew barrister Jolyon Maugham, arguably best-known for having brutally killed, at his country home (a windmill), and using a baseball bat, a fox. Another waste of space, in my opinion.
Incidentally, anyone who thinks that Maugham, a tax barrister (I do not know whether he is still in active practice) must, ipso facto (or otherwise), be some kind of great mind, should take a look at his efforts when on the team of Birkbeck (London University) playing “celebrity”/alumni Christmas University Challenge a few years ago: https://order-order.com/2022/01/11/jolyon-wins-university-challenge-after-getting-almost-every-question-wrong/.

“FURIOUS residents said they felt ‘helpless’ after a 95-year-old woman was forced to wait on the pavement for more than five hours for an ambulance.
On Monday, November 25, Winifred Soanes was left on the cold pavement after falling and breaking her hip in Christchurch High Street.
Accompanied by her husband of 61 years, Andrew, 92, who ‘wouldn’t leave her side,’ several people stayed to help, with nearby businesses pulling together, offering essentials to keep Winifred as comfortable as possible in the ‘freezing’ weather.
David Lovell, who saw the fall, was the first to call for an ambulance, staying with Winifred and Andrew for the five and a half hours.
He said: “I can’t describe how cold it was, and as it got dark, the temperature dropped really quickly.
“She was lying on the cold pavement, and we couldn’t move her because she was in huge amounts of pain.”
Because of the way she fell, David and the others had to find a way to prop her head up, getting some shoe boxes from stall holders and a pillow from a pub.
Staff at Mountain Warehouse provided sleeping bags, and the charity shops gave blankets and hot water bottles.
Jennifer Baylis, who works at the Prama charity shop, helped throughout the day.
She said: “I can’t tell you how upsetting it was, she actually said, ‘I’m going to die here tonight’.”
Jennifer said a number of people attempted to call an ambulance and explained that she was a vulnerable elderly person. However, they were given no time frame and were told she was not a priority.
Winifred’s husband, Andrew, is diabetic and a veteran, but despite needing to care for his own health, he stayed by her side in the cold.
He said: “The situation was dire, but it’s great to know that when they need to, the community all pull together to help.“
Andrew, who called his wife his ‘soul mate’, said she was taken to Poole Hospital for treatment and is waiting for specialist operation for her injuries.
People who witnessed Winifred’s distress criticised the ‘broken system’, many of whom have called for a reform of how the service is operated.“

Judge Carolyn Scott said it must have been a ‘terrible ordeal for a woman of 20’ and added: ‘She was on public transport and had no opportunity to escape the situation.’
She sentenced Salah to a suspended jail term and also gave him a sexual harm prevention order which prohibits him from communicating with any unknown female on public transport unless it is a member of staff in relation to her duties.
He has also been banned from deliberately touching any unknown female on public transport under the same order.
Judge Scott sentenced Salah to 44 weeks, suspended for two years, with rehabilitation requirements and 200 hours unpaid work.
Salah was ordered to sign the sex offenders register and abide by the sexual harm prevention order for ten years.

True, if rather simplistic. For one thing, while the Blair-Brown “Labour” governments of 1997-2010 turbo-charged the mass immigration or migration-invasion of the UK, the Conservative Party has been in power now for 13 years, and by the time of the next GE will have been sitting there for over 14 years. In that time, immigration of all types has gone through the roof. Also, which party was in power for the 18 years before Blair?
Both main System parties are enemies of the British people.
Labour is one of the main gravediggers of our society, but the System’s other face, the “Conservative” Party, is another gravedigger, and is now burying our society very rapidly.
The only thing for the voters to do now is not to vote “Conservative”. I do not say vote Labour, but do not vote for Conservative Party candidates at the 2024 General Election. Either vote elsehow (however pointlessly), or abstain. The Con Party has to be binned. If it can be binned with sufficient force and effect, perhaps it can be almost killed off, allowing other political forces to take strength.

That is in accord with my view: Russia to take Ukraine east of the Dnieper, together with a strip of land west of the Dnieper about 50 miles deep along the coast, and including Odessa. Kiev to be declared an open city akin to a semi-autonomous city-state.
That of course accords with the whole Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan agenda…if or when push comes to shove, there will be malleable non-white tools in key positions, ready to throttle any social-national upsurge.
While I have no reason to think that “Captain Tom” was other than “well-meaning”, that whole thing was just a ridiculous “silly season” kind of story, and was pushed by the mass media because it tended to validate the idea that NHS service is wonderful and that the NHS was only failing in its main mission because overwhelmed by the “Covid” virus (that in fact, statistically, killed very few people).
I was always suspicious of the hangers-on, especially the daughter, who now turns out to be yet another “grifter” or even fraudster, like so many around today: “Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, Jolyon Maugham, “Man Behaving Dadly” etc. Hundreds of this or that type are on Twitter alone.
As for the NHS, the cartoon below seems to encapsulate the public debate:
The NHS principle (“free at point of use”) is one I support, but it is clear that the NHS has lost its way. It —like the Welfare State generally— cannot work when mass immigration causes an endless line of new demand for its services. Also, maladministration has been patent for years, indeed for at least two decades. At present, the NHS is not really “doing what it says on the tin”. It is now a very hit-and-miss service.
Stopping the boats is much harder than the Govt thought it would beā¦. https://t.co/Ke4wgINUCS
They never really tried. Yet another political scam. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan requires Europe to be invaded by non-Europeans, particularly blacks and browns, and to be ruled by Jews and part-Jews. Look around you…
As far as the Channel migration-invasion is concerned, once a small number of boats were sunk (by Britain’s otherwise now-pointless Royal Navy), and that fact publicized, few others would even try; but the existing political system is either too weak, or implicated in the Coudenhove-Kalergi conspiracy, to take the initial harsh decision required.
Thus, instead of sinking the boats of the invaders, the Navy ferries the invaders to Dover, assisted by other corrupted organizations such as the RNLI, the Coastguard, the Border Force (“Farce”) etc.

“Jack Monroe” is but a small part of a wave of lies and fakery that has swamped our culture for several decades. Not just online “grifters” such as Melissa Hadjicostas/”Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, Rachael Swindon (not as bad as the others, arguably), “Man Behaving Dadly”, Mike Stuchbery (antifa cheerleader and mentally-odd anti-free-speech type), “Dr.” Louise Raw, and many many others, but also political figures (prominent among which would be “Boris” Johnson, of course) and the msm-promoted “real world” “activists” such as Greta Nut.
It goes beyond even individuals, to beliefs and “causes”: “global warming”/climate change via “emissions”, “Black Lives Matter”, migrant-invaders as something somehow positive, “Ukraine”, “Covid”, “Covid” “vaccines”, UK “austerity” 2010-2023, “UK terror threat” from podcasters and tweeters such as Sven Longshanks and others, etc. The tendency of large-scale falsehood might be traced back to the still-flourishing “holocaust” and “anti-Nazi” farrago. History as mixed fact and fakery with, often, more fakery than fact.
Talking of “Sven Longshanks”, the political prisoner, his resettlement fund (to help him get back on his feet when he is released next year) remains open:
I just donated 20 British pounds to support Sven Longshanks. Chip in if you can!
“Jack Monroe” stands out from the other two mentioned because she is a fake front or facade, with nothing behind it except her appalling “recipes”. Maugham is a barrister, and had a career, apparently lucrative, in that field before becoming an online personality. Owen Jones too, was known as scribbler on socio-political issues before he became a kind of msm/online caricature of himself.
“Jack Monroe” is actually more than a mere fake and “grifter”; she is a classic criminal type, psychologically (in my admittedly “non-expert” opinion), and who in other circumstances might have been (again, in my “non-expert” opinion) a career criminal, terrorist, or even something worse. She strikes me as being a dangerous woman. I think that the police should (at long last) start looking at both her fraudulent activity and her repeated organization of harassment against her critics.
Needless to say, the BBC etc should not allow her onto shows such as Question Time (which publicity wrongly validates her).

Hello new people. You've probably seen a number of my Tweets about how I'm facing Jack Monroe, aka @BootstrapCook in court soon. Here's the full story:
I subscribed to her Patreon. She failed to fulfil the contract and didn't send out any rewards. I asked for my money back. Sheā¦

The worst of it is that, thanks to (LGBTQXYZ? Cocaine-abusing?) friends or contacts at the BBC, which contacts got her onto Question Time yesterday, “Jack Monroe” now has yet more msm “validation”, and many more ignorant mugs will probably be sucked into sending her cash via Patreon etc.
Having said that, and as Abraham Lincoln said, “you can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time“. I notice that the number of Patreon mug donors sending cash to “Jack Monroe” is, as of today, 404, less than half of the number donating last year, and fewer than were donating even a month ago.
Between this and Jack Monroe on Question Time itās not been a great night for the promotion of criminality on national television.
The tweets above attracted a host of “Jack Monroe” admirers to attack the tweeters. The admirers tend to be men (sometimes also women) of a certain age, and who want to “white knight” for the fraud/grifter. Pathetic.
As blogged previously, I see few if any young people taking “Jack Monroe” at face value; also, few if any ethnic minority people. I have speculated in the past that the latter probably know too much about real poverty or struggle, and /or look upon the swill “Jack Monroe” puts out as “recipes” with disdain or horror.
What I find incredible about the naivety of so many on Twitter is that they have been applauding the mediocre soundbite-uttering of “Jack Monroe” on Question Time as if it were some brilliant exposition of the horrible flaws of the “Conservative” governments of the past 13 years. In reality, she said (from what I have seen on Twitter) nothing new, nothing at all.
Appearing on Question Time and tweeting a bit about the “Tories” does not qualify as (serious) “campaigning“, by the way.

Leaving aside the Martin Amis news (which for me was not in any way major), Britain started to go wrong in the Thatcher era of the 1980s, and started to slide steeper downhill from, particularly, the Blair-Brown years. The UK may be still a bit of a “toytown” or “poundland” dystopian police state, but it gets darker all the time. It does not even have the saving grace of most police states— low (real) crime.

The quotation directly above expresses a fact which many prefer to ignore. Note— not “disagree with”, but ignore. They do not want the truth, but comforting (?) lies.
The UK is almost open-borders now. The “British” Government (packed with Jews, Indians, you name it) has basically given up the struggle to defend our borders. In that circumstance, how long can even the semblance of a “Welfare State” be maintained?
What seems to have been happening in Britain is that the outward forms have been and are being maintained but, at the same time, the content has been, and is being, hollowed out.
Not just Welfare State services such as State benefit levels, but allied aspects of society: the NHS is one. The NHS still exists, but underfunding and mass immigration is testing it to the limit. NHS dentistry is disappearing, in fact has almost disappeared. The GP service is now a skeleton of what it was only a few years ago.
Of course, “Covid”, or “the Covid crisis”, or “the pandemic” is a very useful excuse as to why standards cannot be maintained. You (apparently, supposedly) cannot see a GP or a dentist “because of” the “panicdemic” of 2020-2021.
That has become the contemporary version of the 1940s British excuse for non-availability of goods and services, as when, in the film of The Cruel Sea, senior Royal Navy Reserve officer Jack Hawkins calls over a steward at (?) the Trocadero in London to complain about dust in the decanter of water on his table, only to be told “I’m very sorry, Sir, it’s the war, you know…“, to which Hawkins replies, wryly, “well, in that case, I should not want to make too much of it” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cruel_Sea_(1953_film)].
The same has been the case in very many areas of British life. When I was reading for the Bar in 1987, there was discussion about whether wigs and gowns would still be worn by barristers in the future. A wise old barrister replied that “they will get rid of everything else before they get rid of wigs in court“.
That turned out to be right. The Bar has changed radically since the 1980s, in a few respects for the better but in most respects for the worse, but those wigs are still there, at least in the Crown Court (though now more rare in civil cases, in both the High Court and in the County Court).
Look at the armed forces. The outward forms are still there, but the few remaining ships are merely like stumps sticking out of drought-hit fields. A couple of aircraft carriers without planes (!), and the officers and crews of warships (as seen on “reality TV”) seem pretty poor quality, at least from what is shown.
In fact, so useless are our armed forces now that “Boris” idiot recently suggested giving our remaining planes and tanks to the Jew Zelensky in Kiev, because the UK has no use for them! Johnson was derided, of course, but actually (while I would not want to support the Kiev regime) Johnson had a point.
The Navy now does little but ferry migrant invaders to the UK (!) and interdict drug smugglers (the only way to really stop the drug problem, though, is to hit the consumers in the UK, and hit them really hard).
Why do we even bother having a navy in those circumstances?
As to the Army’s tanks, they seem to be of no use at all here, and are only used for exercises and for occasional foreign misadventures such as Iraq, and that was decades ago.
The Royal Air Force? Most of its bases have been closed down, and most of the rest are really semi-disguised USAF bases.
Is there, likewise, much reality in the Monarchy? I think not. Not only The Harry Formerly Known as Prince, and Meghan Mulatta. Not only Prince Andrew, that useless and unpleasant freeloader. Not only the rest of them, but also their actual role. What are they for, really? Does their existence as “royals” really serve any purpose now?
The migration-invasion, and the general mass immigration into the UK, has ripped the stuffing out of this country. The original 1950s to 1970s immigration from former colonies turned Commonwealth countries was bad enough, but in the past ~40 years, and especially since about 1989, there has been a flood even from countries which which the UK has historically had few if any ties. That increased during and after Blair’s evil regime, i.e. post-1997.
The old idea was that immigrants, even non-whites, would just blend in with British people and their way of life. That was only a half-truth even half a century or more ago. Now, it is just not so; the numbers have become too great. Britain may be majority non-white as early as 2050, and even many of the European people here now are not British in any real sense; many are the rejected dross from the poorer parts on the continent.
It makes me laugh when I read in newspapers about how the UK is being “defended” by the armed forces, and by the security and intelligence bureaucrats. What are they now “defending”? Not the British people or their way of life, that’s for sure. That is being destroyed from within. Mass immigration. Births to non-whites. Corruption at Westminster. Cultural trash on TV , radio and elsewhere. Cheap hee-hawing by Jew comedians and others. All of that.
I tremble to think of what Britain might look like by 2050, let alone 2100, if we cannot reverse the process, or take the country in a new direction. I myself (b. 1956) will not be on Earth by then, but it may be that, before then, Fate will enable me to join with the best of my fellow Brits to change the mood music in the next 20 years. We shall see.

I was of the view that Labour’s open door immigration policy (the real policy, not the “horseshit” fed to the public via the msm) would put voters off from voting Labour-label, but the “Conservatives”, under Indian money-juggler Sunak, are plainly bent on importing more millions, and have done nothing at all even to slightly reduce mass immigration, including the cross-Channel migration-invasion, so many people will just want to punish the Con Party even if knowing in their hearts that Labour will be no better in most respects— and worse in some.
Incidentally, that YouGov poll, if reflective of actual voting at the next general election, would give Labour the biggest Commons majority in history— a Commons majority of 430 [Labour 540, Con 20, LibDem 19, SNP 47, others 24 (inc. Northern Irish seats)].

That is what at any rate used to be the Consulate, the Embassy itself being nearby.
I remember standing in a long, slow line outside one of the gates in early 1993, the first time I needed a Russian visa.
In fact I had already been there once, in the 1980s, when I queued on behalf of my then girlfriend’s mother, who apart from being too aged to wait in line for hours, always seemed to have trouble there because she was born in pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg in or about 1908, and had insisted that her British passport reflect that and not (as per the silly Passport Office rule) Leningrad (the Passport Office staff always prefer to change places of birth to the latest name of the location, so “Tanganyika” is changed to “Tanzania” even if the latter was not in existence at the date of birth).
Of course, that 1980s visa for the old lady mentioned was a Soviet one, not a Russian one as such..
Incidentally, the fall of socialism in and after 1989, and the official end of the Soviet Union in 1991, brought a change in the way that the consulate treated its visitors. In the 1980s, an unwelcoming ambience and the strange little holes in the glass screen above the reception desk, as at old railway stations, the holes too low to speak through without stooping (they are —or used to be— everywhere in Russia, even at the Kremlin ticket office); in 1993, a new reception desk and no screen with little holes (in fact no screen at all, I seem to remember), and girls who actually smiled and were pleasant, unlike the sullen factotums of yesteryear.
The last two times I needed a Russian visa, in 1996 and 2007, I did not need to queue or to go there; commercial organizations will do it for you, at a price. I ended up going to Moscow again in 2007, but not in 1996, that visit having been called off at short notice, the very day before I was due to travel.

My two closest friends are Ukrainians; one is ethnically from its western part, the other is from Chernihiv. One is w/ Western education. Both live in Ru. Both have relatives all over Ukr. Both consider our countries undivided and are really suffering from what is going on.
To all those who try to lecture me about Ukrainians (esp Westerners, who donāt know Ukr/Ru, have no clue about history, have never seen an Ukr in real life; whose knowledge is limited to what the mainstream says), just donāt do that. I just ban not to waste my time & nerves.
Someone on here (and detailed further on Kiwifarms) has successfully won in Small Claims Court against Jack Monroe bootstrapcook and is now progressing it to CCJ as she's failed to respond/refusing to pay.
I'd say it's almost certain that Jack Monroe is refusing to pay because in her nasty, narc head, she thinks she can do what she likes. She'd have to tell a lot of lies under oath to make it look like she can't rather than won't pay. Well done for getting thus far already šš
As of today, the 502 hard-core mugs on Patreon are still sending “Jack Monroe” several thousand pounds each month.
It pleases me that every time I log onto twitter its either an Owen Jones binfire, a Jack Monroe binfire or trans rights activism is being shown the fucking door. It really does.
People of Britain: you know who your enemies are, and they are not the Russian people, not Putin, and not the so-called “far right” (social nationalists, who are fighting your fight)…
As far as ordinary System politics is concerned, the best result of any general election now is that the misnamed Conservative Party be simply wiped out, even at the cost of a Labour Party “elected dictatorship”. Once one half of the binary political scam has gone, sooner or later the whole rotten system will fall.
Meanwhile, the British people face high prices and shortages. Online repression means that I cannot suggest how to punish the freeloaders…
Actually, a friend of mine used to lunch quite often at the House of Lords in the 1980s and 1990s. Similar prices, or even cheaper, adjusted for inflation. Smoked salmon for pennies, main courses a couple of pounds.
Main square of local town. Stake. Blindfold. Firing squad.
In a better world…
In fact the tweet is mistaken, and the local newspaper report misleading. One untermensch was imprisoned for 12 years, the other for 10, meaning that, in fact, they will be out in 6 and 5 years respectively.
Odd though. How was the woman “lured” to the locus of the attack, a flat? Are we getting the full story here? I think not.
A little judicious “racism” might save many women and girls in the UK. Fact.
Even leaving aside the crime(s), what use are untermenschen of that type to the UK? They are nothing but a millstone round the collective neck. Useless humanoids. Get rid of them.
As said in relation to other matters, people know in their hearts what will eventually have to happen.
Ambassador Andrei #Kelin to @AndrewMarr9 and @LBCNews: #NATO countries, with #UK among the leaders, are getting deeper and deeper into the #Ukraine conflict. This only prolongs it.
Why is the UK run like a 3rd world country? Why can Norway out perform us on every metric that counts? Why are we so poor? Why do we have lowest pensions at highest retirement age? Why are people waiting years to receive health care? What happened to the country I grew up in? š

The “Jack Monroe”/”Bootstrap Cook” situation continues
People like this, thinking they're doing the best for the 'wonderful desperate people' at breakfast club. Now they'll be armed with thrifty tips and some extra smugness. pic.twitter.com/F4pyHKanJB
“@frugally_minded” is a woman who was cheated by “Jack Monroe”, and who, despite being now in a parlous financial state, has been refused a refund by the so-called “Bootstrap Cook”.
Yeah, it's vile. She's also sneered at social housing in other tweets, and said she was so relieved that she didn't have to apply for it. As well as being a habitual liar, she's a snob. Sadly, her fan base are mostly middle class people like her, and so they can't see through her
No, she regularly claims that she is working class – she isn't, she even describes herself as middle class. You don't suddenly become working class just because you signed on for a few months. She was never a single mum either – she's a co parent, and has supportive parents
She blocks anyone who asks reasonable questions about her patreon including those who've requested a refund, charity money, PayPal, backstory, and anyone who questions any of her provable lies.
I saw an interesting allegation, which may or may not be true, to the effect that “Jack Monroe” is now subscribing to her own Patreon donation appeal, in order to keep the numbers up and prevent the perception that she is being abandoned by her real donors (hundreds of utter mugs).
— ā„ļø never Tory š«š”Toxic & Cruel. (@Politics1951) January 3, 2023
Quite. There are a number of recognized defences to an action in defamation, one of which is “Truth” (formerly called “Justification”).
Apart from that, as that tweet implies, many potential claimants (“plaintiffs”, as was) will not want their business and life generally, exposed to public view. That of course applies a fortiori to those who may have unethical, or even criminal, matters to hide.
There is a further matter, which is that a claimant claiming that he/she has been defamed will have to spend much money bringing the matter to court, money which can only be recouped (and it may not be) from a wealthy, or affluent, or at least solvent defendant, or one who at least owns valuable real property.
We hear much (mainly on Twitter) about how people can sue others using litigation insurance etc, or “pro bono” lawyers. It’s not as easy as that.
Firstly, litigation insurance will only be available where it is thought that a claim is not only well founded in law and fact but also where the putative defendant has assets, or income, that might satisfy any claim.
You can see where that leaves the “Bootstrap Cook”— up a gum tree. The last thing she wants is forensic and/or judicial examination of her allegedly dishonest and/or near-fraudulent “grifting” cottage industry.
In any event, most of those criticizing her probably have next to nothing, certainly not enough to satisfy the legal costs (and award of damages) flowing from a successful defamation action.
The house owned by Katie Hopkins had to be sold to cover both the actual award to “Jack Monroe” (Ā£24,000) and the costs of the claimant (Ā£300,000), most of which went to her lawyers, meaning to her solicitor and —I think, two— Counsel.
Incidentally, “pro bono” properly refers to cases taken by a lawyer for no fee, not the “no win, no fee” speculative type; as when one of my tutors at degree level, who was an Old Etonian, appeared pro bono for Eton College in a 1980s High Court matter involving, I believe, land and trusts.
Someone like me, without real property, valuable assets, or much of an income, is effectively “unsueable”, unless the claimant were willing to accept that any award made, and costs which might top half a million pounds (bearing in mind appeals etc) would be irrecoverable. Of course, what at least used to be called a “prohibitory injunction”, and/or a “mandatory injunction” (those being orders to prevent a repeat of any alleged libel, and/or to order the taking down of the libel complained of) might be ordered, true, but at what cost!
All those tips are good – nothing unsafe about them. My mum used to have a glass rolling pin to fill with cold water. We are so far removed from making things for ourselves, that it seems alien to us.
Because she's not helping only herself. She is patronising & adds to the narrative that the poor are stupid, when she calls herself a working class woman & takes up that space she takes it from actual working class women
So tweeter “@sarahcam3ron”, apparently one Sarah Cameron, thinks that “Jack Monroe’s” suggestion of using a mallet and a chisel or knife to open a can (when you can get a new basic tin can-opener for a little as Ā£1 in a cheap supermarket, or a used one for 20p in a charity shop) is good advice for “the poor” (seen as a “huddled mass” yearning to be preached to). These “Jack Monroe” fans and partisans believe what they want to believe.
In fact, the same tweeter seems to think that the bad behaviour of “Jack Monroe” is de minimis in the face of larger injustices in society: see below.
Extraordinary unjustified cruelty against her, especially when so many people in power enable the deaths & suffering of 1000s. Tories prevent hungry children being fed, destroy the NHS, 1000s die from austerity & Covid. Jack writes a book, & sheās the villain. Ffs.
“Jack writes a book“? Try “Jack fleeces hundreds, indeed thousands, of people out of money most cannot really afford“. In any event her ‘recipes’ are largely carb-heavy slush that must be hard to stomach for many, from what I have seen.
Does anyone not totally loony think that a nutritious feed can be had for (as “Jack Monroe” claims) 11p per person? Even hardcore Con MP Lee Anderson only claims he can make such for 30p, and I (admittedly no cook) doubt whether anyone can make a decent lunch/dinner for less than about Ā£1. I suppose a slice of toast with a Burford Brown very large egg on it— that would cost about 70p.
Frankly, I should rather have a peanut-butter and lettuce sandwich or two (cost? maybe 40p, if that) than any of the stuff I have seen from the “Bootstrap Cook”— and it would also remind me of when I was 10-11 years old and had that (with some slices of rock melon) every day at Middle Harbour School in Mosman, Sydney, in 1967, sitting outside in the warm sun.

What "disabilities", what "disadvantages"? It's not about envy, it's about morals and her lack of them.
Using disabilities as an excuse from reprehensible behaviour is vile. But many have come to expect that from Jack Monroe.
She even tried to make #Grenfell all about herself.

There are bigger issues facing the UK than “Jack Monroe” (to use the Essex argot) “blagging” her way to a mass media semi-“celebrity” profile in the Guardian or on TV. Yes. No argument.
Having conceded the above, I just find it absolutely infuriating both that that person seems to have cheated all those people, some genuinely “poor”, out of money, and also that the msm scribblers and talking heads in this country are so dim and negligent that they accept many poseurs and/or frauds at face value, without checking them out; and that applies not only to the “Bootstrap Cook”, but to many many others, from “Boris” Johnson and Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, Liz Truss and Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng), to relatively obscure individuals such as Aisha Ali-Khan (featured on yesterday’s blog: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2023/01/02/diary-blog-2-january-2022-2/).

@TrussellTrust having looked at the ātipsā from @bootstrapcook in the book youāre planning to distribute to foodbank users Iām both concerned and deeply insulted. These tips are dangerous and patronising, as a food bank user myself Iād be insulted by this book.#thriftykitchenhttps://t.co/IMbrxeTfsa
No, you don't need to break your paring knife to open a tin: just buy a tin-openerācheaper. You don't need to buy tins of spaghetti hoops & rinse them; just use dried spaghetti. Nor do you need to boil down soap to make shower gel; just wash with soap (which is no cheaper anyway)
As someone whose income is low & who has in the past been pretty skint (I was a dance teacher, guys), I empathise with poor people. But I also recognise that this has become another form of victimhood culture.
Awful too. Essentially saying that hopefully a book urging poor to budget better/embrace hideous 'tips' – supposedly purchased by those in poverty – will secure Monroe, from a middle class background with limited experience of poverty, a home. Mercenary! https://t.co/y5LDvlB73T
They are steeped in a long history of condescension and poverty tourism. Wealthy imagining poverty they'll never understand, judging behind thin veneer of helping, providing tips of no value because they write about an existence they've never had. It's harmful because rather than
challenge poverty it ultimately accepts it. Claims Italian meals can be had by poor from spaghetti hoops – ignoring lack of money to buy good ingredients, to travel, go to restaurants, even get a take away. It's a lie! Masks horrors of poverty to satisfy fantasies of wealthy.
“Jack Monroe” has surely descended into the realms of Monty Python now. Nutritious lunches made for only 11p a head, opening cans using a knife and a hammer, or mallet (the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, ROSPA, must love that one), and her various weird and not very wonderful “tips” reading like a dystopian Blue Peter charade.
I think that it is no accident that most of her supporters on Twitter seem to have mental problems of one sort or another. Many seem pretty stupid as well. Example? See below:
I spent about a month using my lads pen knife (that hook like blade similar to the bottle opener) to open cans when my can opener broke. I had the money to get one but just kept forgetting and I don't open that many cans without ring-pulls these days.
Ffs, of all the things to get angry about. It goes to show that those fuckers have never struggledā¦and to be honest neither have I to that extent but it doesnāt stop me imagining or empathising. Happy new year Jack Monroe x
People are angry about “Jack Monroe”, and the reason is that she has been making a good living by pretending to care about “the poor”, while taking money from, in some cases, genuinely poor people, and not even giving them what she promised, and because her food looks to many like “Mahashma Gandhi”, a dog’s dinner of beans and noodles mixed with curry powder etc.
Below, someone with more sense:
I've been poor and even homeless for a while so I saw straight through Jack Monroe immediately and I can't understand why so many people on my timeline fell for it. Does it have something to do with her being a middle-class person's idea of what a person giving advice would be?
The only poverty she campaigns against is that of her own "faux poverty".
Jack Monroe is a scammer and fraudster – why not ask her how many copies of the cookbook actually made it to foodbanks after this little cash grabbing stunt?
Day by day more evidence emerges that lockdowns were a catastrophe. When will those responsible admit they got it horribly wrong? You know who you are!
She is right, just as I and others were. People, many of them, don’t want to hear that. No, our national economic problems, they say, are caused by “Covid”, by Putin, by the war in Ukraine, by “climate change”, by anything other than the 2020-2021 ridiculous lockdown shutdown(s) of the UK for up to 2 years.
Enjoy your 11p “Jack Monroe” dinner in the dark and cold, once you get that can of ASDA cheapo spaghetti hoops open with a mallet and knife! And don’t forget to bring a couple of forks to the feast!

Even were Ukraine (the Kiev regime) able to defeat Russian forces, decisively, in the field, which is unlikely, that result would only then lead to the use by Russia of tactical or even strategic nuclear weapons, or to the decision to use fleets of bombers to reduce Kiev to rubble.

The kefuffle around the crowdfunder launched by “Dr” Louise Raw to (ostensibly) sue Jeremy Clarkson continues, with people not only saying that it is doomed on its own terms (for legal reasons, and as I pointed out a few days ago on the blog), but suggesting that the whole thing is a “grift” or near-(?) fraud by Louise Raw, something which I doubted when I wrote about it (if only because it seemed to me that it would be difficult to get away with a blatant fraud of that sort). Maybe I was too kind.
As to why gofundme was used instead of The crowdjustice platform, I also believe that refunds are possible via crowdjustice to the campaign donors
Youāre quite right that the money will be paid out to Louise Raw, unless she has nominated a Beneficiary in accordance with GFMās terms and conditions. If she had, that would appear on the crowdfunding page. Once in her control, she has no contractual obligation to account for it
Oh and this claim about āevery single pennyā isnāt strictly true, as GFM charge platform fees for using their service. Also, donation of a surplus fund in this form deprives charities of Gift Aid that UK taxpayer donors might otherwise lawfully claim on their donations pic.twitter.com/uRBiGdXIbV
I had thought that Louise Raw would not want to taint her “militant” or pseudo-revolutionary image to her mug followers on Twitter by keeping some of the money for her own use. On the other hand, the said “woke” mug Twitter followers are usually pretty dim, as can be seen in some of their responses to the legal critique of this doomed attempt to sue Clarkson.
Come to that, look at the fundraiser promoted by Roanna Carleton-Taylor on behalf of “grifting” fake “historian” and “journalist”, Mike Stuchbery (along with some Paki-stani solicitor whose name I forget). They raised about Ā£12,000, which as far as I know has never since seen the light of day.
Unless I discover otherwise, I shall believe that, on the balance of probabilities, those monies were split between “Roanna” and Stuchbery, with the solicitor getting a bit by way of “professional fees” (for doing almost nothing but sending one letter to Tommy Robinson). Certainly, no legal action was ever launched. About 800 “woke” mugs donated to that crowdfunder.
Stuchbery still has over 88,000 Twitter followers, though Roanna Carleton-Taylor has apparently withdrawn from online activism (I have no idea whether or not the police took an interest in her and/or her husband’s other activities, as claimed by some people). Anyway, there it is.
Then, of course, we have —what increasingly looks like— a continuing and outright “grift” by the so-called “Bootstrap Cook”, who calls herself “Jack Monroe”.
As of today, 643 mugs, donating regularly via Patreon, are closing their eyes to the very telling exposures of “Jack Monroe” which have appeared since, especially, August 2022; they are supplying her, in aggregate, with monies amounting to some sum between Ā£2,300 and Ā£30,000 each month. Maybe, at a pure guess, about Ā£6,000 or so, monthly. Probably taxfree, too.
“Jack Monroe” also had a crowdfund appeal going from May 2022, ostensibly in order that she could sue MP Lee Anderson and political activist/commentator Martin Daubney. People donated, but (quelle surprise) the “defamation case” has never been initiated, and the monies donated have disappeared into what might be called the “Jack Monroe” lifestyle fund…
“Jack Monroe”, despite everything, not only still has that cadre of 643 utter mugs sending her money every month, but also has no fewer than 563,000 “followers” on Twitter.
Even that ridiculous West Indian woman who caused a fuss recently at Buckingham Palace, and who literally “cosplays” as a tribal African, not only managed to rip off Ā£170,000 before people started to look into the affairs of her blacks-only “charity”, but also, tellingly, has since then managed to get hundreds of mugs to donate another Ā£36,000 in order to help to buy “her charity” a house. Unglaublich!
In other words, those “grifters” have not at all been damaged by what some have been calling outright theft of donated monies, because they make the right sort of “politically correct” or “woke” noises.
Perhaps that is what will happen to Louise Raw’s crowdfunder, i.e. a small amount will go to a solicitor, and Counsel, in return for a nicely-written Advice advising that legal action against Clarkson is impossible, after which Louise Raw will (I speculate, of course) keep whatever is left, perhaps donating a thousand or so to a domestic violence charity (on the publicized record, for public show).
Louise Raw is notably reticent with some information, e.g. as to her own background, including where she studied for her “doctorate” (if any) and her first and Master’s degrees (if any). It may be that she never will give information as to where the bulk of the monies raised went (or shall we say “disappeared”?). All she would have to do, on that hypothesis, is to say that the monies went to suitable “good causes” and that the “good causes” “requested no publicity” or some such. “Jack Monroe” has tried that one in the past, and the mug donors just accepted it as true, so…

Legal grift. It has the added bonus of getting you the approbation of the Good People who think Good Things.
The first tweet above of course refers to 1. The absurd Marlene-something-posing-as-African; 2. “Jack Monroe” (and her dog’s dinner “cooking”); 3. Dr. Julia Grace Patterson (was very briefly an NHS doctor, now lives off “grifting” and/or selling useless facemasks etc); 4. Either Louise Raw, or notorious fox-batterer Jolyon Maugham, the narcissistic New Zealand-educated barrister and “activist”, and his largely pointless “Good Law Project” (anyone who saw his lamentable ignorance on Christmas University Challenge recently might prefer to keep their money).
Incidentally, I just saw a few tweets by “Jack Monroe” about how hard it was for her (supposedly a recovering alcoholic) to find mince pies in the supermarket made without alcohol. Surely a quasi-professional cook would make her own, especially at Christmas? Oh, well, there it is.
She is attempting not only to crowdfund but to crowdsource the victims of the proposed harassment claim, as if that would be effective in any way, given the wording of the statute
Those refer to Louise Raw and her stupid (or maybe not so stupid, if indeed it is a “grift”) crowdfunder.
I was just trying to remember what were the best fees I myself ever got for one-off written Advices when I was at the Bar. I do not include advice given when I was a salaried lawyer overseas in the late 1990s (Kazakhstan, Caribbean, elsewhere), and provided to large companies such as Raytheon, because I was then charged out at about USD $400 an hour, but that money went to the law firm(s), not me personally.
I think that the best fees for basic written Advices that I myself ever had were somewhere in the region of (in the money of 15-30 years ago) somewhat short of a thousand pounds (you could/might double that to put it in the money of 2022), so fairly modest compared to Counsel in the best —or best-padded— chambers.
I do recall, when working in Charleston (South Carolina) in 2002, telephoning to London to ask the Clerk of one of the top company law chambers in Gray’s Inn as to how much a written Advice from one of their QCs would cost. The document in question was 17pp long, but the only important bit consisted of only two paragraphs, and on only one page. A few alternatives were offered, but the bottom line was— Ā£4,000 to Ā£5,000. Again, maybe you would have to increase that by 50% or even 100% today, but even so, the Ā£15,000 appealed for by Louise Raw seems high, particularly in view of the non-commercial subject-matter.

“Wokes” such as “Dr” Louise Raw always claim to be speaking up etc for the people, but the said “wokes” seem to forget that they chose the losing side re. Brexit, in the 2017 and 2019 General Elections, the 2016 US Election etc. Not that I myself favour Trump or the “British” Conservative Party, or even mishandled Brexit, as such, but the “wokes” are in a Twitter (etc) echo chamber where they refuse to even listen to, or see, any views contrary to their own; indeed, they try to “deplatform” people, as do the Jew-Zionists. Louise Raw is a prime example of an “I’m not listening” “woke”. No wonder they always get things wrong.
Incidentally, Louise Raw is on Twitter as “@LouiseRawAuthor”. “Author“?Technically so, because she has had one (non-fiction) book published, a decade or so ago. Is that really enough, though, to validate a self-description as an “author“? Maybe in her world, just as it seems to be OK, in her world, or mind, to call herself “Doctor” based on a “doctorate” granted (if indeed she has one) on the basis of the same subject-matter as her sole book, a strike of match-factory girls in London in 1888.
