Israel, the leech-state…

Mostly Jews, many of them with dual nationality. They support Israel fanatically, in many/most cases. They made the bed, so let them lie on it…

Whatever happens in the next months, in the long term Israel is doomed.

This is a modern-day version of Old Testament ethnic cleansing. Look at the religion of the Jews; several of their religious festivals refer to military victories, execution of “antisemitic” rulers or advisers etc.

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

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism#Jewish_holidays

The Gaza quasi-genocide has exposed the Israeli Jews not only for what they have done but for what they are, at least as a collective.

I prefer peace to war, but just as there are, in ordinary life, some individual people, lunatics, psychopaths etc, who will not stop, and cannot be stopped, not by ordinary peaceful means, so there are some states which just go too far…

Most mainstream politicians in the USA, UK, France etc are in the pocket of Jewish-Zionist or directly Israeli orgs. Look at Starmer-stein’s horrible yet pathetic UK government— almost entirely composed of Labour Friends of Israel members. Starmer. Rachel Reeves. Yvette Cooper. Liz Kendall. Dozens of others.

The same is true of most of the mainstream media.

Cleverly’s suit is not as striking (neither is it as good or as well-made) as the off-white/cream suit I had made at Sam’s Tailor in Hong Kong in 2006. Perhaps not a good choice, though, for the UK. I have only worn it a couple of times, once on a very hot and sunny day in 2023 when I had to attend Southampton “Mags” on a preliminary appearance to do with my free speech trial: see

The (all black) security staff loved my white suit as I walked in, which must say something! In fact, a rather nice black girl (security guard) was particularly complimentary.

[“Did you know that after the Macron “Rothschild” Olympics’ blasphemous re-enactment of the Last Supper, the first country to defend Christianity and condemn it was Iran? It was not the USA, Britain, Italy, or Israel. In Tehran a billboard went up, with these words: “Indeed, the Messiah, Jesus Christ, Son of Mary, is a messenger of God.”]

The Muslims, at least the educated ones, revere Jesus Christ as a prophet (though not, of course, as divine).

As to Macron, his links to Jew-Zionism were explored several years ago on the blog:

In the midst of life, we are in death“…

Media vita in morte sumus.

Whether death comes to us via natural causes, by an accident or other violent event limited in scale, or via a gigantic human conflict, we are all on the same journey.

And rival storms abroad are surging
From sea to land, from land to sea.
A chain of deepest action forging
Round all, in wrathful energy.
There flames a desolation, blazing
Before the Thunder’s crashing way:
Yet, Lord, Thy messengers are praising
The gentle movement of Thy Day.

Russia or, rather, the Russian people, will eventually, in about 1,500 years, become the leading edge of the world, just as the Germanic/Anglo-American element now is. That may be why Russia cannot be successfully invaded from west or east (as in the cases of Napoleon and Hitler). The double-headed eagle looks both east and west at the same time.

Russia is not really either European or Asian, but sui generis.

There you are. That is the face of the UK armed forces in 2025. “Equality”, “diversity”, “best practice” in admin etc. Useless, in short.

Also, someone cannot spell (it’s “practices” in this case, not “practises“, unless, as a kind of American colony, we should all be writing in American English).

Still, when many “journalists” cannot spell, or write decently, why should some M.O.D. bod be any better?

I cannot know, but do suspect, that similar situations exist in the Army and Navy, and also in SIS/MI6 and MI5 (and, of course, in the police and CPS).

I cannot get too worked up about the Brize Norton attack, because for me the invasion of the UK is happening in small boats across the Channel, via “legal” immigration, and via births. I do not take “Britain’s defensive capability” against the (non-existent) “Russian threat” seriously, not in the slightest. Russia is only bristling because the UK is taking pointless and self-harming measures against Russia in the first place. We should be in loose alliance with Russia.

Having said that, it is clear that serious attackers, such as Spetsnaz commandos, would have no difficulty causing absolute havoc on such bases, should they ever be tasked with doing so.

The RAF Regiment usually defends RAF bases. What went wrong?

Britain’s dying rivers, and the need for new reservoirs

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jun/20/england-rivers-water-extraction-record-levels

Our rivers are under threat,” said Nick Measham, the chief executive of the conservation charity WildFish. “We are putting extra demands on water resources when the rivers are running dry. When it does rain after persistent dry periods, we often return our water polluted, which means that river habitats for animals and plants are in serious trouble.”

[Guardian]

Of course, the increase in population by reason of mass immigration is largely the cause. 56M when I was born (1956), and perhaps (no-one really knows) 70M today.

Moscow in 2025

As I said the other day on the blog, on my own visits to Moscow (1993 and 2007) I really did miss out!

More seriously, I can see that Moscow has changed radically in the past 18 years, let alone the past 32…

As for Petersburg, I have never been there, and it is one of a handful of cities which I have both never visited and which I might like to visit.

All this project has to offer you is hyper-individualism, endless choice, and sexual narcissism, as symbolised by the rise of Only Fans, while all the guardrails that once gave us structure, meaning, security and a genuine sense of belonging collapse all around us. This is what is happening in the UK right now. It’s why you can sense that unavoidable vacuum, that hole, that sense of emptiness when you look at what has become of our once great nation and community.“]

If only people with a mass following, or approaching a mass following, such as Katie Hopkins, would speak up against the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby; instead of which, they speak up for it, most of the time. What is the point in speaking up for free speech when you also speak up in favour of that evil and malicious lobby which is the biggest enemy of free speech in this country?

Danse macabre

Truly, the wicked flourish like the green bay tree…

Mark Lewis, Lawyer

God, just look at that bunch of…

Rosen’s comment is, presumably, meant to be ironic or droll.

The above tweet hits the nail on the head. Lewis has been puffed (as “foremost libel lawyer” etc) for years by a Jewish and/or pro-Israel cabal in the UK mass media, certainly since 2012, when the bastard started to (try to) persecute me. Connections included “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”] and the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] and its chief spokesperson, “Slitherman”.

12-14 years ago, Lewis was often seen being interviewed on TV (in relation to the now almost forgotten UK “phonehacking” scandal) and a few very simple defamation cases, notably one involving Katie Hopkins and “Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas), the fraudulent “Bootstrap Cook”, since exposed as a dishonest “grifter”.

Jewish scribblers in, for example, the Daily Mail (and other newspapers), made sure to give Lewis favourable coverage, as when he married Z-list one-time sort-of “celebrity” (she read the news on Sky for a while, about 25 years ago) Caroline Feraday (who joined with Lewis in attacking me on Twitter), and relocated with her to Los Angeles, but somehow there was no Press coverage at all when the marriage fell to pieces within a year, and Lewis had to return to the UK alone and broke.

I covered all this in my blog articles about the egregious Lewis, a few of which I shall post below.

The same happened when Lewis was “convicted” at the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal [“SDT”] for a few of his many social media abuses. There was almost no coverage at all. “They” (((they))) covered it up. Even when it leaked out, and he was found guilty, it was spun along the lines of “the Tribunal chose to support Nazis, not a Jew defending himself” (a gross distortion of the truth).

Incidentally, Lewis was such a successful libel lawyer and “reputation specialist” that his own Counsel, in addressing the Tribunal in mitigation, stressed that any fine should be reduced to a modest amount because Lewis was “someone without any means“, and “whose only assets are his own clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension valued at £70 per week.”…

In fact, it seems that Lewis did have one other asset, but one that seems to have been dishonestly concealed from the Tribunal— a flat in Eilat, Israel.

[nb: that picture of Lewis is from around 2012. He is now virtually unable to stand up, by reason of multiple sclerosis, and many think that his mental faculties, never as acute as his supporters would have people believe, are now in steep decline.]

More “irony” from Rosen there.

The cat came back

A very nice story and also, beyond that, an interesting example of how animals both have a homing instinct and also (beyond even that) a connection with their humans that goes beyond “mere” homing (amazing though that alone is). In some cases, animals have found their way across hundreds, even thousands of miles, to their humans’ new homes, homes to which, and in places to which they, the animals, have never been. There should be research into this.

Though The Incredible Journey and the novel on which it was based [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Incredible_Journey] were fictional, there are similar accounts which are not fictional.

Could it be that, apart from the more obvious ways in which animals navigate, or may navigate, animals such as cats and dogs, often personally connected with particular humans, can find those with whom they feel a connection via some kind of “silver cord” based on (?) brainwaves or some other emanation?

The strange military ballet which takes place daily at the border between India and Pakistan.

Even now, in the face of such devastation, bombing of hospitals, and starvation of children, and plans to drive out (to where?) the entire Palestinian Arab population, you see online and on TV the bleating of Zionist Jews living in the UK, USA etc that that is all “self-defence” and that any criticism of it is “antisemitic” and should be banned.

The more I think about it, the more I think that the way forward is not the UK parliamentary democracy of (arguende) 1832-present, not Sovietism, not even National Socialism (in its original clothing), but a synthesis of the best elements of those, suffused with interest in, and knowledge of, the supernatural world, as noted in my blog piece from many years ago about my personal history:

[“Ian Millard is now determined to put forward ideas and views for a positive future society in the UK, mainland Europe and beyond.

Ian Millard’s world-view comes out of both wide reading and the experience of living and working all over the world, and is composed of a synthesis of political ideologies, religions, philosophies and studies, prominent among which are the ideas and ideals contained in Anthroposophy, National Socialism, pan-Europeanism, and non-denominational Christianity, particularly Christic and Grail occultism.

Society in the advanced countries (and, therefore, the rest of the world) has come to a dead end, except in strictly technical fields.

A new society must arise, based at least fundamentally on the Threefold Social Order concept of Rudolf Steiner and on a mainly European population in the European or Eurasian lands.*

*”Eurasia” in this context refers mainly to Europe, Russia (including Siberia), Ukraine, Kazakhstan and some other Russophone areas.“]

Stray thought (aka “why is nothing in the UK thought through properly?”)

I should say that a major problem of both local and central government (and orgs under both) in this country is the apparent sheer inability to think things through; particularly policies, but it extends to what Basil Fawlty would call “the bleeding obvious“.

Yesterday, I drove 15 miles to visit someone at a major hospital, the recorded telephone message of which starts with some pointless propaganda about how £400M or £500M is being spent on new buildings etc.

So, anyway, after a slow, incredibly congested drive to the place, I find that there are indeed new buildings still under construction, but that a good part of what had been public parking has now been built upon. No doubt the usual bureaucratic box-tickers think that that is wonderfully “green”, and have little interest in the inconvenience of people visiting, or needing to stay, in the hospital.

The next problem was in finding the patient I was visiting. I just cannot believe that a major NHS hospital apparently has no main reception desk! Perhaps (?) one will exist, once all the changes have been made, but for now at least, no reception. Beyond belief. In France, in the USA, the reception desk is inescapable. The UK prefers the “Hampton Court Maze” approach.

I asked some foreign (Malaysian?) nurse or other uniformed person where was reception. She had difficulty in repeating the word, then directed me to what was (inevitably) the wrong direction, in view of the fact that, as I then discovered, there was no reception…

Finally, another person told me to find A&E, and the A&E desk would look up the patient’s name for me. I did that, and was given the number of the ward and bay. Thank you. Where would I find that ward? They were unable to tell me! They did not know the layout of the hospital, and apparently had no map or plan to hand.

I had to stumble around, asking random uniformed personnel, until I was told— at the other end of the large complex (of course).

En route to my destination, I noticed a sticker or poster proudly proclaiming that the hospital had been awarded 5 stars (the maximum) for cleanliness. I have to say the place did not look too clean.

Signage— terrible. Architecture. Almost rock-bottom.

Just one example. I could cite so many others. Yet Britain not so long ago completed Crossrail (now, the “Elizabeth Line”), a very impressive, very complex rail project. I can only assume that people who knew what they were doing were in charge of the rail project, whereas in the NHS, local authorities, and in respect of central government direct policy (immigration etc) you are dealing with the —often-clueless— bureaucrat element and the —even worse— political-idiot element.

Walk down almost any street, in almost any part of the country. Even in the shopping streets of or near affluent areas, many on the streets are blacks, browns, Chinese. This is not only migration-invasion, but also migration-occupation.

In any case, that 431,000 number is arrived at by including (and setting-off) those white British/European people who are leaving, whereas almost all of the immigrants coming to the UK are black/brown/Chinese, so the reality is even worse.

Almost none. Statistical zero. Over time, they and their offspring will be, at best, parasites, at worst criminal or terroristic.

Simon Myerson is the malicious and vituperative Jew-Zionist barrister from Leeds who was sacked as a recorder (p/t judge) because he was unwilling, or perhaps unable (by reason of his character or mentality), to stop his online abuse of and insult to people.

Actually, looking at Myerson’s tweet, it is surely libellous on its face. It is not unlikely that Dr. Clarke henceforth will be avoided by Jewish patients etc who have seen Myerson’s tweet, and who may take seriously the allegation that she is “unsafe” (meaning, in this context, likely to deliberately cause injury to them).

There is surely, in potentio, direct financial damage there, and career damage, as well as reputational damage.

I think that Dr. Clarke should consult her solicitor without delay. Myerson has plenty of cash and property with which to satisfy any damages and costs that might result from a successful claim in defamation.

Incidentally, in English law there is no such thing as a “blood libel“, which is a term used only by Jews (or their puppets) to describe criticism by non-Jews of bloodletting, or alleged bloodletting, by Jews.

A barrister, Jewish or otherwise, should not be making up law and broadcasting the nonsense online (or elsewhere), thus misleading the general public.

I also think that Dr. Clarke would be within her rights to refer Myerson to the Bar Standards Board. I also think that she should.

Myerson should be reported to both the Bar Standards Board and the court where that trial is to take place (I think, not sure, the Central Criminal Court/Old Bailey).

Myerson was involved as a witness in the civil trial in which Newbon was a defendant. The trial judge did not believe a word Myerson said (or the testimony of several other Jewish witnesses), though said judge expressed his assessment more diplomatically than I have done.

Newbon, a vicious social media troll and pro-Israel fanatic, committed suicide before the trial ended (in defeat for the three defendants, the two still alive and Newbon). The James Wilson who has tweeted above was the successful claimant in that trial.

Starmer-stein has done the near-impossible— made Boris-idiot, Liz Truss and others seem (relatively) honest. Hard to believe (in both senses).

The Glamour Boys: The Secret Story of the Rebels who Fought for Britain to Defeat Hitler” tells the story of a small, loosely-knit group of rebel Conservative MPs who, from the mid-1930s onward, repeatedly warned of the dangers posed by Nazism, highlighted the plight of the Jews and vigorously opposed the appeasement policy of their own party’s prime minister, Neville Chamberlain.”

Runcorn and Helsby by-election— latest

Interesting view and analysis from the New Statesman. Not as tendentious as one might have expected.

Another view, this time from Cheshire Live: https://www.cheshire-live.co.uk/news/chester-cheshire-news/election-sees-voters-questioning-labours-31522527.

According to one poll, the only two significant contenders, Reform and Labour, are neck and neck, both around 35% of the vote. As to the bookmakers —in my experience a less reliable indicator— Reform are odds-on favourites at about 1/2; Labour 2/1: https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/politics/market/1.241434500.

As previously blogged, the only ways to sink Labour in this seat, and to at least “send a message” to Starmer-stein, are either to vote Reform or to vote anywhere but Labour or, failing that, not to vote at all. Whatever you do, do not vote (fake, taken-over) Labour.

I still think that Reform may smash this, but concede that I may be wrong. We shall soon know— the by-election is in three days’ time, Thursday 1 May 2025.

Import backward populations, import their religious, social, political and other behaviours. Surely that is not too hard for people to grasp, even those brainwashed by “anti-racist” propaganda?

Only a disciplined social-national movement can now save Britain and all Europe. Reform UK is a mere way-station. The real deal will come after Reform and all existing System parties are shoved aside.

She cannot believe that her treasured fake “centrist” parties have been found wanting by the British people. She has even invented a non-existent “moderate” party (it exists in her mind and tweets but nowhere else). Its “moderate” policies would include near-open borders, huge amounts of money funneled to Zelensky’s corrupt dictatorship, and huge, even unstinting, support for Israel and the Jewish lobby.

Unfortunately, Douglas Murray is “a white man in a suit” who is a complete puppet of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby. I should not complain about “racism” were it such that it were defending true European race and culture.

Of course, were anyone to denigrate “a black man in a suit” in the msm or System media, something seen daily, there would be uproar; the police (in their new chosen role as a poundshop Stasi) would probably get involved, in fact.

Yes, the USA might well be able to deploy 10x the military-destructive power that Russia can. Maybe even more. However, simple mathematics says that 0 x 10 is no different than 0 x 1. Once you are destroyed, you cannot be destroyed all over again.

Yes, it may be that the major Russian cities and towns and military bases could all be obliterated by American nuclear weapons, but I dare say that the 100 biggest American cities could also be largely destroyed by Russian missiles, together with the major American military facilities.

Would the Senator from Louisiana count that as a victory? New Orleans counts as no. 53, and Baton Rouge is at no. 107. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_population.

Historical footnote

[Philby on a 5-kopeck late-Soviet commemorative postage stamp, and described as “Soviet Razvedchik“, a term which might be translated as “intelligencer”, rather than the grubbier-sounding “spy” (in Russian, “shpion”); “razvedchik” is a more polite or dignified term]

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/mar/22/mi5-surveillance-british-spy-kim-philby-made-public

Secret surveillance of Britain’s ­notorious double agent, Kim Philby, made public for the first time in archived documents, reveals how keenly the Security Service wanted to confirm or disprove early suspicions of his high-level treachery.

In daily bulletins submitted to MI5 in November 1951, undercover operatives describe how Philby, codenamed Peach, moved about London.

They said he gave “no outward sign of being either nervous or on the alert, but your well trained man should not do so; every movement is natural – again as it should be”

[Guardian]

The whole Philby thing has always been hugely overblown. Philby himself has been over-rated, too. Superficially well-educated, yes, but really a rather dogmatic Marxist-Leninist who, under other formative circumstances, might have been like some of the other basically mediocre professional-level bourgeois Englishmen I have met in my life, and who were not in secret-intelligence work but, variously, Roman Catholic converts, and/or military officers or barristers or other activity.

Philby was certainly no great mind, though he evidently thought himself very clever. Likewise, he was a bit of a plodder ideologically.

I recall that Philby wrote in his supposed memoirs (possibly part-ghosted by KGB helpers), My Silent War, or elsewhere, that “you choose your side and stick with it“, i.e. rather as others do to the Labour or Conservative parties, or to (the contemporary British obsession) football clubs. Unthinking loyalty. Stick-in-the-mud loyalty.

The puffing of Philby as the “masterspy”, or even “spymaster”, suited both sides in the Cold War: the Soviet side getting the gloss of having not only suborned Philby and other “Establishment” Englishmen to the Marxist/Soviet cause, but also having outplayed Western intelligence agencies in the spy game.

As for the British part of the Western side, Philby’s prominence could be presented as an example of why pervasive “security” (and the whole Cold War stance) was necessary. Also, his supposed “brilliance” in a way bolstered the reputation of institutions such as the more expensive English schools (Philby was at Westminster School) and, of course, the supposedly elite universities, in particular Cambridge.

The whole “Cambridge spies” story tends to puff the reputation of SIS and MI5 (despite their having been outplayed) by making their role seem terribly important. One scribbler even penned a well-known book called Philby— The Spy Who Betrayed A Generation, as if the Cambridge Spies were pretty much the centrepiece of British history since the 1930s, rather than an obscure footnote to it.

In the 1930s (when Philby started to work for Soviet organizations), there was (in the first half of the decade) the Great Depression, and the initial triumph of National Socialism in Germany. In the middle of the 1930s to 1939, the Spanish Civil War, while in Britain itself, the economy was recovering and society changing .

Then, in the early/mid 1940s, there was the titanic Second World War (in the Soviet Union, the Great Patriotic War).

In Britain, after 1945, there were the great social changes of the 1950s and 1960s. By that time, the “Cambridge Spies” were mostly not even in the UK. Maclean and Burgess had fled in 1951, and Philby was in journalistic exile in the Middle East. The economic and social changes in the UK were the main events, together with the start of the disastrous migration-invasion of non-whites into the UK, and Britain’s retreat from Empire.

The “Cambridge Spies” were not even footnotes to much of that. Near-irrelevant, despite the obsessions of the Westminster Bubblers and newspaper scribblers.

What damaged Britain in the 1940s through to the 1960s, and then on to today, was not a few spies passing on information to the Soviet Union, but the abandonment of Empire, the importation of blacks and browns in vast numbers, the cultural decadence etc.

You often see Philby and his fellow Cambridge spies described as “upper-class” or even “aristocratic”. In fact, not one was of “aristocratic” background, though all (except Cairncross) were affluent or wealthy. Philby’s own father was from an affluent government-connected family [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_John_Philby] but a fact generally ignored or covered-up is that Philby’s mother, Dora, was half-Indian, a so-called “chi-chi” (pron. “shi-shi”), which may have subtly affected his loyalties.

General Kalugin, in his memoirs, describes how his superiors had the idea of using Philby, then in Moscow, as a kind of lure for potential agents in the West, by showing that he was respected, had a good life etc. His first meeting with the shambling drunken Philby makes a memorable picture.

Incidentally, Philby never learned to speak or read Russian beyond a rudimentary level, and had English-language books supplied to him via the KGB (presumably via people at the London embassy, and the diplomatic bag).

In the early 1990s, sometime around 1994, I was slightly acquainted with a Russian businessman living in London, and with an office in Regent Street, who had some legal business (I was a barrister at the time). We had lunch at least once at my Inn (of Court), Lincoln’s Inn. I recall that the Spanish waitress was very taken with “Ed” [Edvard] and his rather Scandinavian looks (he was from the Baltic regions) and even asked me later if I might effect an introduction for her (that never happened).

“Ed” was quite open about the fact that, prior to his taking to capitalist business activity, he had been in the KGB, though that would only have been, at a guess, for a relatively few years. He recalled having been at a lecture or two given by Philby in Moscow (he said that that had been at the Lubyanka).

Small world. “Six degrees of separation” etc…

Incidentally, those comments in the Guardian from the MI5 surveillance directorate in 1951 do tend to beg the question; after all, if a surveillance target is acting naturally, then either he is not guilty, or is literally acting (and/or has been trained to act) naturally, so in fact may be guilty. If, though, the target looks nervous, looks for reflections in shop windows etc, does that mean that he is guilty, or is he just a nervous wreck and/or afraid of being thought guilty? Wilderness of mirrors.

The sheer hypocrisy of the Labour Friends of Israel “Labour” government is simply unbelievable. Surely Liz Kendall, Rachel Reeves, Torsten Bell, Starmer-stein etc can see that? Or are they so removed from truth and decency that they cannot see it? That might be even more alarming.

I should imagine that even Labour-inclined voters will be voting Reform UK (or staying home) at the Runcorn and Helsby by-election, in order to send a message (and/or a kick) to this horrifyingly callous and irredeemably incompetent misgovernment.

As to Conservative Party loyalists in the area, I should say that the Cons have no chance— so vote Reform in order to stick it to fake Labour.

“Rachel from Accounts” knows no more about economics than George Osborne during 2010-2015. Both promulgating counter-productive fake “austerity”.

Given that there is a lot of talk about changes to special educational needs provision and reform plans for the NHS, we should worry about what the government might focus on next. Equally alarming, it seems to me, is a belief in Downing Street that reviving the UK demands embracing the wonders of artificial intelligence, which Keir Starmer believes will have an almost magical effect on everything from social work to education, and realise his new dream of “totally rewiring government”. Because this is an administration so lacking in everyday humanity, that is a much more scary prospect than he and his colleagues seem to realise.

Sumy Oblast or region is in NE Ukraine. Sumy city is NNW of Kharkov; about 150 miles from Kharkov by road but only about 90 miles as the crow flies. About 200 miles east of Kiev.

So Russian forces are in Sumy Oblast now. There seem to be Russian advances in all material parts of the overall front. Kiev-regime forces are falling back.

For those who are unaware of the outline of James Wilson’s (now-successful) libel case against three defendants (all Jews; in one case, possibly only a part-Jew), the defendants were advised and/or represented by Jewish solicitors and barristers who seem to have been, all or variously, professionally negligent and/or incompetent.

Mark Lewis and Daniel Berke were the main solicitors for the defendants, Beth Grossman of Doughty Street Chambers was the barrister (possibly the only barrister; I do not know, and only heard of her recently, via Wilson’s Twitter/X account and Substack blog).

News from the migration invasion

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14416593/Irish-migrant-powder-keg-Far-right-militias-rise-asylum-seekers-violence-machete-attacks-drug-brawls-Dublin.html

Ireland has exploded into a wave of violence as anti-migrant anger is at an all time high – after the number of people applying to come into the country rocketed by nearly 300 per cent five years.

Once sleepy towns are now homes to hundreds of asylum seekers while tent cities have been set up along Dublin’s Grand Canal. 

And with far-right sentiment at fever pitch the country is on a knife edge – with even Ireland’s left-wing politicians admitting that the influx of migrants was driving a spike in homelessness.

The government has previously spoken favourably about migration. Jamie Drummond, Co-Founder and Executive Director of NGO ONE and a friend of U2 star Bono, told the International Development Committee in 2015 that young immigrants were needed to help with Ireland’s ‘senile’ aging population.

“Just as this country and this continent will be at its most senile demographically speaking, Africa will be the world’s youth and the supply of the world’s energy, creativity and dynamism.”

[Daily Mail]

The final comment, apparently by a friend of grasping hypocrite “Bono” shows that he (Daily Mail says “she“, for some reason) has little of use to contribute: anyone who imagines that Africa can give white Europe “energy, creativity and dynamism” is either deluded or working to an agenda.

Very sad that Ireland has become so contaminated. I saw it in the 1970s, and again in the mid-1980s. From what I have seen on TV and newspapers, it has become busier and, in recent decades, more affluent in parts than when I was there but also, now, far less pleasant by reason of the migration invasion.

At least the Irish, unlike most of the English, are not going down without a fight.

You can see that process happening in the UK. In fact, it has been a factor for decades, but the huge migration-invasion since, arguably, 1989, is now completely destroying the “democratic rights” of the (real) British people.

Somewhere around 15%-20% of the UK population is now non-white; in England, the proportion is far higher, around 25%, and in the major cities such as London even higher, somewhere around 30% if not more. Some cities in the Midlands and North are already majority non-white.

Even in the UK as a whole, the average non-white presence in primary schools is now somewhere around 40%. As shown, that means that in cities such as London, the primary schools are already about 50% or more non-white.

[In 1951, there were effectively no non-whites in the UK; the few that did exist were in the major ports, including London (graphic from Wikipedia)]

Incidentally, you can see from that graphic what a lie are those TV dramas (eg, Grantchester) which show even small villages in the 1940s or 1950s with racially-mixed populations.

People of my age [b.1956] know the truth, but younger people, especially children, are being brainwashed via the TV, cinema, streaming services, and at school, to believe what amounts to a lying narrative.

By 2050, at latest, the UK population will be majority non-white. Yes, some non-whites will not support later waves of immigration; however, most will, and do.

If Britain does not have, by 2030 or so, a genuinely social-national government, or at very least a Reform UK-type conservative semi-nationalist one, you can forget the “Parliamentary road”.

Fake Labour has no “plan”, except to allow profiteering bodge-housebuilders to make money destroying what is left of our countryside by building hutches for migrant-invaders and their offspring.

Now, the msm has awoken to what dissidents were saying on Twitter/X 6 months or more ago— there is no sufficient workforce to build said hutches.

You see the agenda, though, in that “i paper” bullet-point list: the UK “needs” more migrants to (supposedly) build more houses because…Britain has so many migrants (who are breeding). Brilliant…

To guess at likely election results 4 years ahead of time is to go where the angels fear to tread, of course, but why should I stop now?!

To my mind, assuming we avoid nuclear war etc, the result of the next UK general election will be something like Reform UK 30%, Labour 25%, Con 18%, LibDems maybe 12%, Greens maybe 8%.

That would in turn result in Reform UK having 319 Commons seats (Lab 157, LibDem 60, Con 50, Greens 4 etc).

A Reform UK on the brink of an overall majority, but look at the Con Party! 50 seats, and only 4th placed behind Reform, Labour, and the LibDems. Terminal.

Unfortunately, I cannot see much chance, as yet, for a genuinely social-national party to emerge. The rise of Reform has taken the wind out of those sails. Still, all roads lead to Rome…

Thoughts about “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer’s latest nonsense

Starmer has now commented that he may decide to plant British “boots on the ground” in Ukraine. This is a comment which could only be made by someone with no grasp at all of geopolitical realities, and no thought at all for the welfare of the British people.

So what happens if/when serious fighting breaks out between the forces of the Russian Federation and those of the Kiev regime? Presumably, Starmer will want them to fight on the side of the Kiev-regime forces, i.e. against those of the Russian Federation, unless the British forces would just stand there, or retreat westward.

At that point, a NATO nuclear-armed state’s forces would be in direct armed conflict with Russian nuclear-armed forces. What happens when the Brit forces, maybe thousands of them, are destroyed? Send another tranche? How so, when the battle-ready UK Army numbers around 30,000 (some say fewer)?

Has Starmer thought this through? I think not. He’s useless.

Apart from anything else, the Russian Government would inevitably see the presence of NATO troops in Ukraine, whether designated as “peacekeeping forces” or not, as tantamount to a NATO force in Ukraine and on the side of the Kiev regime.

Madness.

This story just breaking in The Telegraph must spell the end of Lord Hermer’s time as Attorney General. It’s been disclosed Hermer fought for compensation for Mustafa al-Hawsawi , one of the plotters of 9/11 where 2,900 people were killed. Hermer claimed the MoD, MI5 and MI6 were complicit in the torture of Hawsawi who was arrested in Pakistan alongside the 9/11 mastermind in 2003. Hermer started taking the terrorist’s money in 2023. A year later al-Hawsawi pleads guilty to murdering 2,900 people and is sentenced to life meaning life. Let’s get this right. One minute Hermer is accusing the MoD torture the next moment he’s on Labour’s payroll. A total shit. And don’t believe all this tosh about lawyer’s having to take the cab off the rank. As a KC he’s so busy he can pick and choose.who he represents. He chose a terrorist. Says all you need to know about Lord Hermer.

[Kelvin MacKenzie]

Starmer is talking s**t, as usual. Not only would putting UK “boots on the ground” be likely to go very wrong, and potentially lead to a conflict between the UK and Russia, possibly nuclear, but it seems that the quantity and indeed quality of British troops would be inadequate, taking “quality” to include their equipment, arms, armament, air “lift” power etc.

The best soldiers in the world are all but helpless without the right arms, armament, transport, logistics etc. True, in small scale “special forces” situations that is less so, but the Ukrainian theatre is not like that. Do not think Bosnia, Oman, Northern Ireland; think Second World War or, indeed, First World War.

Large armies, large artillery contingents, slugging it out on a vast scale. Even the present overall front-line is something like 900 miles long.

We see retired Brit senior officers saying that the UK government should be doubling military expenditure “to face Russia”. Why? There is actually no need. Russia is only looking (to some) like an adversary because the UK has been backing the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev. Russia would much prefer to have cordial or at least normal relations with the UK.

Even leaving that aside, to scale-up the British armed forces to anything like what would be required to have more than a token effect in Ukraine would take not months but years. Personnel, training, re-equipping, rearming etc. Maybe 5 years.

Where would Britain’s retired senior officers’ new fantasy armies come from? Young people in the UK mostly wish to have nothing to do with anything military or naval, and who can blame them, looking at the increasingly degenerate and shambolic country they live in…

Meanwhile, Britain’s people become poorer by the year, Britain’s road and rail network is not even maintained, for the most part, properly, drug and alcohol abuse is rife, the population is degenerating culturally and ethnically, hutches for migrant-invaders threaten what is left of the green and pleasant land, and idealism (whether real or misplaced), is hard to find.

As Starmer and his advisors scurry to Paris this morning collectively shamed by Washington into finally pulling their finger out on defence, here’s two cold hard realities.

1. The idea of deploying a peacekeeping force to Ukraine is indeed noble. But the UK have four deployable brigades for such a task. These would need to be re-rolled into a coherent entity or BCT, plus a corps level HQ which would be expected by allies. This would exhaust the British Army – with many units up to one third non-deployable. The notion of a 10k UK force I’ve seen doing the rounds is simply laughable. At most, a brigade, and this would exhaust the Army past 18 months (3 rotations).

2. The absolute fallacy of Starmer thinking he can send a credible force – whilst *still* insisting in private he won’t go above 2.65% GDP for defence spending – is utterly shameful. The cost of deploying even one brigade will cost billions extra a year – whilst straining the Army to its seams. To commit UK forces but not be prepared to fund it adequately is shameful, and shows no signs from learning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

[Robert Clark]

Worth noting that. Not that I agree that sending Brit troops to Ukraine is in any way “noble“. We, as Brits, have neither selfish interest nor any moral obligation to do so. “Ukraine” as a state has existed for only 33-34 years, since 1991.

Since then, it has been the most corrupt “state” or quasi-state in Europe. The Kiev regime is not only corrupt but brutal and shambolic. Trade unions are banned, dissidents arrested or even shot or otherwise disposed of. Elections should have been held, at latest, a year ago.

Zelensky and his thieving cabal (with their overseas villas and offshore bank accounts) have stolen literally billions, and rule by decree and brute force. Few Ukrainians volunteer to fight; most, almost all now, are either drafted compulsorily or are pressed into service after having been abducted off the streets.

Moreover, Britain has effectively no historical ties of any substance with the region, and none with Ukraine as a state, because until 1991, Ukraine was merely part of the Soviet Union, and before that part of the Russian Empire.

Starmer and his ludicrous Cabinet of idiots have nothing in the tank. I am not referring only to the armed forces but across the board. They are empty of ideals, ideas, policies, and public support.

It funded the fake “movement” set up to oppose Brexit during the 2016 Referendum, and put in as figurehead that ridiculous “Femi” creature (Femi Oluwole), a loudmouth Nigerian know-nothing who makes a living by occasional TV appearances, online donations, and while living in his parents’ house (they are both NHS consultants): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Oluwole.

My favourite bit from the @JDVance speech

“No voter on this continent went to the ballot box to open the floodgates to millions of unvetted immigrants. But you know what they did vote for? In England, they voted for Brexit. And more and more all over Europe, they are voting for leaders who promise to end to out-of-control migration … I just think people care about their homes. They care about their dreams. They care about their safety & capacity to provide for themselves & their children … Contrary to what you might hear in Davos, citizens don’t think of themselves as educated animals or as interchangeable cogs of a global economy.”
