Maggie Fleming Animal Hospice
A regular reader of the blog alerted me yesterday to what sounds like a wonderful animal-welfare place in Scotland.

“The Maggie Fleming Animal Hospice and The Karass Sanctuary for Farmed Animals is a wee bit of the world where animals who have more often than not had a pretty hard time of it and not known a lot of love or kindness in their lives can lay their hats and leave the bad stuff behind them. The worst bit is over and now it’s time to enjoy life, find love, and enjoy the things that make them come alive.
I started The Maggie Fleming Animal Hospice in March 2016 in memory of my friend Maggie who died alone and in a lot of pain at the vet hospital. You can read more about Maggie here. Maggie had died alone and I thought I’d never be able to smile or laugh or love again, but even though I could hardly think for the grief, the words ‘The Maggie Fleming Animal Hospice’ came into my mind, and once the thought was there it wasn’t going to loosen its grip any. Six months and a few signs along the way later the hospice was born.
When new folk arrive, I promise them that for so long as they want to be here life will be good, and when the day comes and they are tired and they have had enough, I’ll listen even if it’s the last thing in the world I want to hear, and we’ll face it together.
The hospice and sanctuary gives life-long and end-of-life care to terminally-ill companion and farmed animals who have been abandoned in the final stages of their lives or who would otherwise have lived and died in the food system. The hospice and sanctuary Waltons-esque family – 154 at last count – is made up of hens, cockerels, sheep, pigs, cats, dogs, quail, turkeys, and as of spring 2021, nine lambs.
Comfort, kindness, respect, compassion, dignity, joy and freedom – altogether, love – make life worth living, no matter how long we get to enjoy the ride. Whatever shape carries us through this world, in my experience of facing death with so many of my friends, ultimately in life and in death we all want the same things. We run towards security and comfort, contentment and trust – love – and we cower away from worry, loneliness, pain and fear – the absence of love.“

I could answer that rhetorical question, but my essay would be long, maybe even book length…
If our so-called “democracy” cannot “do the business”, then something else will, sooner or later.
Tice is a waste of space. His natural home under other circumstances would be the Conservative Party, and he has one foot still in it. Farage and Tice are both pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby. I only hope that they do well at the GE because I hope that that will help to kill off the Con Party.

The world, not just Africa, has a choice— “white saviours“, or black chaos and corruption. I know which I prefer…
More “diversity”…
“A seriously disturbed man who stabbed three people to death last year had been centre of seven alarming incidents that brought him to the attention of police, the university, healthcare workers or his employer before the fatal attacks.
It emerged following the killings that Calocane had turned up at MI5’s headquarters in August 2022 and banged on the door demanding to be let in. He was reportedly ‘moved on’ by security personnel after his name was logged.”

Blacks are far more susceptible to schizophrenia than white people. Not “prejudice” but fact. In fact, I can remember one incident from the time when I was in chambers in London in 1993 and did a regular voluntary Saturday morning stint at a law centre in an inner city neighbourhood.
A respectable-looking black woman, apparently a nursing sister from, if I recall, Swindon, was telling me all about the abuse she had endured from her (white/English) colleagues at her place of work. It sounded terrible. Abused daily (because of “racism”, of course), and assaulted. They had even tried to inject her with something, holding her down to do so.
I asked questions to clarify what had actually happened. As the story was politely probed, the supposed nurse began to sweat slightly, and started to look uncomfortable as the inconsistencies came out. She left, eventually, when the nonsense became apparent even to her.
All in her mind, of course. No-one had assaulted her, no-one had tried to inject her.
Another time, an old black woman was convinced that her neighbours were beaming waves of some sort through the wall at her. Other allegations were also made, which might have had serious consequences had anyone believed them..
As far as I know, it has not been discovered why blacks are more likely than Europeans to be schizophrenic.
Incidentally, were the facts of yesterday’s case not so unpleasant, I should find it amusing that, while MI5 wastes so much time tracking and snooping on so called “far right” people, certain blogs etc, they all but ignore an obvious menace like the defendant above, who actually tried to gatecrash their own HQ. They did not even pass the details on to the police, it seems.

Useless Nigerian freeloader and occasional System mass media face, Femi Oluwole, complaining yet again about British people. Still, credit where due; I enjoyed reading the —admittedly unsophisticated— tweets he has reposted. They made me laugh.

Only a few days after that Dutchman, Bauer, said the opposite thing, more or less…
Israel is doomed.
Labour is likely to “win” GE 2024 because the Conservative Party is now entirely useless, but Labour is basically no better, and is the home of many black/brown MPs who, at heart, resent or hate British (ie white) people, and everything British in fact.
