Saturday quiz

Difficult questions this week. I scored 4/10, but even that very modest score was enough to trump that of political journalist John Rentoul, who managed only 2/10. I knew the answers to questions 1, 5, 6, and 7. I came close (in my opinion, anyway) to getting no. 2 as well.

Talking point

Interesting. Well worth an hour of anyone’s time.

I liked the comment from a 90-something ex-soldier who said that, looking at Britain in the 21stC, he wishes that Hitler had successfully invaded in 1940 (in fact, there never was a serious plan to invade the UK: Hitler wanted alliance with the British Empire, not to conquer it. “Operation Sealion” [Fall Seelowe] was never more than a contingency plan and/or a smokescreen with which to lull Stalin into a false sense of security prior to Barbarossa).

I also liked the several comments by old soldiers now wishing that they had fought for Hitler.

Starmer’s priorities are: 1. Whatever Israel and the Jewish lobby want; 2. To eliminate any remaining free speech (and refer to previous priority); 3. To destroy what is left of Britain as a real nation, rather than a geographic space filled with globalized economic entities, including humanoid entities (and refer to no.1 above); 4. The self-interest of “Labour” politicians and hangers-on [e.g., most recently, Ayesha Hazarika].

They should have been kicked into the gutter and stamped on. They are nothing but sub-terrorists, using their age and sex as a shield.

Just Stop Oil is a pathetic excuse for a cause or ideology; worthless.

Those ridiculous old “entitleds”, crowing about their “Christian” faith, will try to destroy a (genuine) “national treasure”, but probably welcome the migration-invasion which will destroy this country and its society long before any “climate change” (however caused).

Typical msm scribbler thinks that “govt” can “solve poverty”. That depends on various other factors. In the case of the UK, you have importation of around a million unwanted immigrants every single year now, a fact which scribbler Paul Lewis ignores. Simply ignores. As if to say “million immigrants a year? Irrelevant. Just build more houses for them” (for these mostly useless parasites). Oh, and give them cash, and medical services, and schools for their offspring (etc).

4 million? Try 12…(and, by 2034, 25M, or more).

I doubt whether scribbler (posing as an economist) Paul Lewis has much real expertise in the economics of a state or a society (about your electricity or gas bill, maybe; I do not know).

Both lots of demonstrators are deluded in their own ways.

I used to go to Brighton Beach (New York) occasionally. Early 1990s. It was a largely Russian-speaking neighbourhood then. There was a large shop selling good bread, and pickled herrings and cucumbers etc.

I usually arrived on the”El” from Manhattan.

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

Macron is an idiot. France would not survive war (totally pointless and unnecessary war) with Russia. One Sarmat-2 missile might take out, i.e. destroy, about 90% of the whole of France. I value France, where I lived for 3-4 years; I do not want to see that beautiful country destroyed.

Macron is yet another puppet of the Israel/Jewish lobby: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/09/on-recent-events-in-france/, my assessment of Macron from 5+ years ago.

Worth reading the explanation.

That case is a good example of how some Jewish lawyers abuse the English legal system. See also: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/11/update-re-mark-lewis-lawyer-questions-are-raised/.

Mr Justice Nicklin said this in another case: “It is likely that this error occurred because he [Mr Lewis] had simply failed to carry out sufficient (or any) research or to take adequate instructions from his clients.

[per James Wilson]

Dishonest and incompetent…

Both Mark Lewis and Daniel Berke are fanatical Jew-Zionists. Lewis even lives, some or most of the time, in Eilat, Israel.

As said, both dishonest and incompetent, in the case of Lewis. As to Daniel Berke, I have no idea of how competent or incompetent he is in the civil law field (I read that he is a criminal solicitor), but on the face of the above, he seems as incompetent as Lewis.

As I opined some time ago, there seems to have been professional negligence on the part of Lewis, and that may now apply to Berke as well.

Incidentally, Berke also opines about “antisemitism” being connected to “mental illness”:

Seems that Berke’s knowledge of both “antisemitism” and mental illness is as sketchy as his knowledge of civil procedure seems to be. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/ [updated consistently], in which I examined the incontrovertible links between Jew-Zionism, Jewish “antifascism”, and mental illness.

Yet anywhere hosting anti-Zionists, whether political (London Forum, Patriotic Alternative, Keep Talking etc), entertainers (Alison Chabloz, Gilad Atzmon), metaphysical speakers (eg David Icke) or whatever, will be “hounded” by packs of Jews such as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], “Hope not Hate” (“HnH”] and others.

When will the Daily Mail (etc) cover that story? Never…

Fair enough, but Neil is completely at one with Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby, and the Jewish element has been the driving force behind the attack on freedom of expression throughout the Western world: so-called “race relations” and “anti-hate” laws (designed to shut down socio-political debate), “holocaust” “denial” laws (designed to make aspects of modern history off-limits to both non-Jewish historians and members of the public) etc.

Incidentally, should anyone wish to help defray the costs of my own recent free speech trial, the crowdfunder is still open: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.

Could Andrew Neil be more craven? All his money, yet no real independence, in my opinion.

Like Andrew Neil (pre-2024), I have never watched Eurovision and (unlike Neil) do not intend to change my habit today. I have no interest at all in the Israeli contestant, positive or negative, or in any of the other howling freaks and noisemakers taking part.

I did notice that Denmark’s entry is an African! Not even a beautiful one. “Those whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad“…

The number of foreign mercenaries participating in the conflict on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has decreased by two thirds compared to March 2022 , writes “Business Insider”.

“Half of the mercenaries come from Latin American countries hoping to make money. They are there for money,” said Carl Larson, a former American soldier who fought in Ukraine.

He also admitted that, while he was in Ukraine, he realized that foreign mercenaries would not be able to stop the Russian forces and that they could only delay their advance “perhaps for an hour“.

…and if you cannot believe what (supposedly; they say; they claim) happened only last year, then how can you believe “them” when they claim that this, that, or the other happened in 1942, 1943, or 1944?

“They” are very brave when in a group, harassing a lone woman but, if confronted, run away and then claim to be “victims”.

A horrible tribe.

Turkey should turn off the tap.

Let them squirm as their tanks and trucks and cars grind to a halt.

The IDF captured the Rafah checkpoint on the border of the Gaza Strip and Egypt –

Israeli flags were raised there … The Rafah crossing was the only land corridor for people to enter and leave the Gaza Strip without going through Israel.

Let us remember that the capture of Rafah by the IDF is precisely the “absolutely red” line that all Middle Eastern players have drawn – from Iran and Qatar to Jordan and Saudi Arabia.”

Well, let’s see if the Arab and other Muslim states take any action against Israel. Frankly, I doubt their resolve.

Marine Le Pen on Macron’s decision to send soldiers to Ukraine:

“War is the worst thing that can happen to a people and a country, and I am amazed at the ease with which Emmanuel Macron talks about it. When, with a glass of whiskey in hand, while talking to a singer at three o’clock in the morning, they say: “I’ll have to send the guys to Odessa.”

Yes, I’m talking about ease, because we are talking about the lives of our soldiers. He wants to send troops for the sake of his own ego, personal image.”

My assessment of Macron from over 5 years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/09/on-recent-events-in-france/.

I knew it had to be something like that. Pearl Harbor Mark 2.

I attempted an analysis of those events a few days or so after they happened, 7 months ago now.

Lying Zionist and obsessed online social media troll, Myerson, comes up with a repackaging of the brainless old chestnut you have free speech but not freedom from the consequences of your free speech“. Under such formulae, Mao’s China and Stalin’s Russia had “free speech”…

Why has Myerson himself not yet been suspended, both as Recorder and barrister? He brings both the Bench and the Bar into disrepute. Looks like his thinking skills are also pretty poor.

[Update, 23 September 2024: Myerson was kicked off the Bench and sacked as Recorder —p/t judge— in June or July 2024, but was allowed to present his sacking as a “resignation”. Now the Bar Standards Board is (or so I read) examining, not for the first time, Myerson and his vituperative social media activity in relation to his status as barrister].

The IDF now controls the entire Philadelphia Axis along the Egyptian border in the Gaza Strip This violates the 1979 Egyptian-Israeli peace agreement, also known as the Camp David Accords. Under the agreement, Israel is not allowed to station any military units in “Area D,” which is a narrow land corridor along the border with Egypt.

They can never be trusted, any more than can most of their regional enemies.

This is what they are like, if given power.

Good move. Hopefully there will be at least a few countries in Europe not blasted into infinity by nuclear attack.

Inexplicable“? In fact, all too (((typical)))…

Yesterday, 98 illegal immigrants on 2 dinghies were smuggled into our country by our so-called Border Force. The video shows the illegals being collected mid-Channel where Border Force were waiting to take them onboard & whisk them to our shores. The Home Office alleges that the French prevented 3 ‘events’ involving 71 illegals. The total for 2024 is 8,685 illegals on 178 dinghies. All undocumented. They could be anyone & they’re free to roam amongst us.”

By the end of 2024, it will be about 50,000, maybe more; the calm sea season has not even begun.

The (((fix))) is in…

Actually, looking at that film, I was struck again by how much better-planned or built the Israeli villages and towns are compared to the Arab ones (anywhere). That will not lessen my overall hostility to Zionism and its Western lobby, but one must be objective.

The sheer vulgarity of the “Zionists” is always slightly shocking, even after having seen examples of it for decades.

See previous comment.

[From 2015].

Their true nature, some might say. Others might claim only a minority are that bad.

As the report notes, Israeli security and police were investigating the matter, if only because it showed the Israeli Jews and state in an even worse light.

I suppose that, also, the dangers facing the Israeli state are only partly from outside its borders. A civil/racial/ideological war inside its borders is by no means unthinkable. Such a civil war might be triggered by such atrocities.

I do not know whether anything happened afterward, or whether any of the Jews were punished; I doubt any were, at least not much.

https://twitter.com/jacksonhinklle/status/1778085529860415970

Israeli Jews when not playing the “victim” card…

The post-Mao transformation of China crept up on me; I was not fully aware of it (though I started to sense it in the early 1980s) even after I made my last visit to Hong Kong (I also went to Macau) in 2006. Since then, I have tried to see and learn more.

Sometime in the early 1980s, a couple of friends took on the “opportunity” of delivering telephone directories in SE London, using their private car. I think only Yellow Pages. I recall visiting their house not long afterwards, and seeing the whole place packed with the thick directories. Floor to ceiling. Thousands of them. Feeling sorry for them, I foolishly offered to help them for a day. Good grief! Katorga (hard hard work, like being a galley slave).

I especially recall visiting Greenwich with them. In those days, very mixed. The elegant 18thC house of a Lady or Countess Somebody or other (I noticed a grand piano in her drawing room; glimpsed through a window) but, only one street away, 1930s council flats, very dilapidated-looking.

Out of one such flat emerged a fat black woman without shoes, barefooted on the dirty concrete floor of a communal balcony, and she demanded two directories (God knows why; maybe to use as doorstops?).

Terrible. I recall (as repeated observer) from maybe 2011/2012 how bad much of the NHS hospital service was then (not all, though). God knows how much worse it is in 2024. I pity anyone having to endure one of the maladministered, dirty hospitals run by the NHS, even though I support the “free at point of use” principle, and recognize that some of the doctors and nurses are stellar.

Unless something (but what?) changes very soon, the Conservative Party is going to be pretty much wiped out at the upcoming General Election.

European states must become more Finnish. In other words, more prepared. You have to prepare for the worst to avoid it,” Stubb said. Alexander Stubb also said Kyiv’s support in the coming months is paramount as Putin “feels very confident and is targeting a window of opportunity to break through Ukraine’s defenses between now and September.””

Finns are not known for their brainpower, speaking generally, but this takes the biscuit, notwithstanding Stubb’s paper qualifications. Does this Stubb really think that there would be anything left of Finland were a major war to occur?

I see now that Stubb is from the Swedish minority in Finland (traditionally more affluent and better-educated than the majority Finnish population): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Stubb. Obviously plugged-in to the transnational NWO agenda.

Journalistic standards (fall ever-lower)

The standards of literacy in both online and “real” newspapers slide ever-lower. Look at this, from the online platform of a long-established local newspaper chain:

Police hunt after men try to rob teen’s expensive coat, police say” [headline]

How do you “rob a coat“? Did the coat fight back at all?

Police have launched an appeal after masked men with knives are said to have tried to get robbed a teen’s expensive coat” [first line of the report].

Where does one even start? Jesus H. Christ! To think that that “journalist” (semi-literate scribbler) probably has a degree, maybe/probably a degree in journalism. What can one say?

More tweets

Unless I have missed out some part of the graphic, that is a plurality, not a “majority“; still, significant, bearing in mind the “usual” (((usual))) bias of the American mainstream media.

That means that at least 32% of the people of the UK have no idea at all how unutterably terrible and nasty would be life in the UK after even a limited nuclear attack (if that were the cause of the collapse).

That terrible and nasty existence might (for the survivors) continue for decades; maybe even longer, depending on the level of destruction, how widespread it were, and the level of radiation.

Other causes of a civilizational collapse might lead to quicker recovery (eg were the poles to shift), but a decent level of living might not be resumed (or created), for many decades, all the same.

Does that mean “unbeatable“? As for “escalation“, what was the destruction of Iran’s embassy in Damascus? An attack on not one but two sovereign neighbouring states, simultaneously.

If all the Arab states, plus Iran, and plus the Palestinian Arabs in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza, turned on Israel at the same time, the Israeli state would be finished. The Arabs, and also non-Arab Muslims in the region, however, have always been disunited.

Flares. Does that mean there has been a ground incursion?

The Supreme Commander of NATO forces in Europe, American General Christopher Cavoli, stated that the size of the Russian army has increased during the conflict with Ukraine, and that Russia will soon be able to fire ten times more artillery shells than the Kiev forces.

“The [Russian] military is actually 15 percent larger now than when Special Military Operations began”, Cavoli said during a hearing before the House Armed Services Committee. – “All in all, Russia is on its way to commanding the largest army on the continent,” Cavoli said and added that, “regardless of the outcome of the conflict in Ukraine, Russia will be bigger, deadlier and angrier at the West than before the escalation of the conflict.”

Russia is winning and growing stronger despite the efforts of the West— Indian analyst.

Many countries receive information about the Ukrainian conflict through the prism of Western propaganda. It contains many myths that need to be debunked, writes former UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs official Arjun Katoch in an article for The Print.

In particular, according to the analyst, contrary to the claims of Western media, Moscow is winning the confrontation with Kiev and its overseas sponsors.

After the “impressive failure” of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ summer campaign and the liberation of Avdievka, the Russians are advancing along the entire front line, even in the current mud season.

“The Ukrainian army is being destroyed, and no amount of help can save it,” the author of the article emphasizes. “Russia will win this war; the only question now is how far west its troops will advance,” he adds.

The journalist also debunks the idea that the conflict is weakening Russia. Sanctions forced the country to focus on developing its own industry and reorient itself to the east. But as a result, its economy has outpaced the EU’s in growth, and defense production has grown exponentially, allowing Moscow to supply its troops with modern weapons and ammunition much faster than the West can supply the Ukrainians.

“Russia will emerge from this war with a battle-tested, most well-equipped and combat-ready army in Europe. So it’s certainly not getting weaker,” Katoch notes.

London court postpones Assange’s extradition to the US Julian Assange has been granted a reprieve in his fight against extradition to America.

London’s Supreme Court has ruled that the WikiLeaks founder can take his case to an appeal hearing if the UK and US fail to meet certain conditions, The Guardian writes.

The court demands that the United States allow Assange to invoke the First Amendment of the US Constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech. They must also ensure that his Australian citizenship will not affect the proceedings, and that the death penalty will not be taken against the whistleblower, the publication explains.

If the court does not receive such guarantees by April 16, the defense will be able to appeal. However, even if assurances are provided, the parties will be able to file a motion before a final decision is made to file an appeal, the article emphasizes. If Assange is denied permission to appeal, he could be sent to the United States within days to face espionage charges.

His lawyers insist that the charges related to WikiLeaks’ publication of thousands of secret and diplomatic documents related to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are politically motivated and the extradition request is illegal.

A purely political and malicious attempt to silence a truthteller. On a smaller stage, the same happened to me, most recently in 2023-2014.

Saturday quiz

Damn. This week I was, for once, beaten by political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 8/10; I scored 7/10, and did not know the answers to questions 3, 8, and 9 (in fact, I should also have got no. 9 right, but I had forgotten about his existence).

Sam Melia and Laura Towler

[Laura Towler with her husband, Sam Melia, and their little child; another is expected within weeks, while Melia is in prison]

Most readers will know the facts of the case: Sam Melia sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 2 years, of which he will probably have to serve 8-12 months, while Laura Towler struggles with her child —soon, two children— everyday life, her house (she may have a mortgage, I do not know), and her small business. Therefore, a crowdfunder was set up to help her at such a time of crisis. That fund has now reached, at time of writing, £58,972, and still rising. Excellent.

https://www.givesendgo.com/sammelia

The monies raised will go towards helping the couple survive the year ahead, and get them back on their feet after Melia is released. In addition, no doubt a small part of the money will be directed to helping him while he remains in prison.

Anyone can send modest sums to those in prison, via an official programme, using a debit card: see https://www.gov.uk/send-prisoner-money. To use that service, you need the prisoner’s name, his official prison number, and his date of birth. I have no idea of the date of birth of Sam Melia, but Laura Towler, Mark Collett, or Patriotic Alternative would be able to supply it (I am myself unacquainted with the couple, or Patriotic Alternative people, so have no contact details).

Message about Sam Melia from Laura Towler

Laura Towler has posted a message about her husband’s present situation:

We can now write letters to Sam

I’ve just spoken to Sam. He is in HMP Leeds. He won’t be staying there for the whole of his sentence but it might take a while for him to move. He’s safe and has made friends. He’s been exercising and reading a lot. He says the worst thing (other than missing us) is that it’s quite boring, although the library is pretty good. He said he would appreciate letters from people to help pass the time. Please don’t get too political or the letter won’t get through.

Samuel Melia
A3370FC
HMP Leeds, 2 Gloucester Terrace, Stanningley Road, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS12 2TJ

You can include a stamped address envelope in the first letter if you want him to write back.

We can also send him books from their preferred suppliers and also email him. I’ll provide some more information on this shortly.

The “men behind the wire”

I also happened to see the following, which may have been written also by Laura Towler (if not, then by associates of hers):

I know I have posted about Sam a lot over the last few days but here are the addresses for Sven Longshanks and James Costello who are both serving time for the same public order offence as Sam. Sven will be out this summer hopefully but Costello still has over two years of his sentence left to serve, so he needs us the most.

It’s sometimes difficult to think about things to write as you can’t get too political but they are both intelligent men with an interest in history, literature and culture. They might appreciate a poem you like, information about what’s happening on the outside, or even just a message to say you are thinking about them and they are missed.

Details below for both James Allchurch (“Sven Longshanks”), and James Costello.

Incidentally, “Sven Longshanks” (imprisoned for having published internet podcasts) also has a crowdfunder, both to help him survive in prison and to get him back on his feet when released (expected to be this spring or summer): https://www.givesendgo.com/SupportSven.

Also incidentally, I myself am due to be sentenced this week, in my case in the magistrates’ court, and for the political offence of having breached the Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission but still at present on the Statute Book).

David Atherton says that “the law” is trying to shut down “the debate“. Behind “the law” and the Bench, and the CPS, and the police, is (in 90+% of such cases in the UK) the Jewish/Zionist lobby.

Also, this is not a “debate” but a war (so far a cold war most of the time).

Ha ha! I’ll have whatever that Andrew Gimson scribbler is drinking! More seriously, where do they get these people from?

Ah, I see now: the Daily Telegraph and Spectator. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Gimson].

Is that the “Westminster Bubble” or a Conservative Party bubble? Both?

Imagine thinking that the little Indian money-juggler is the best available, or the best that the British people deserve…

Incidentally, many imagine that I just hate Israel and anything to do with it. Not so, as such. I like some of the Israeli town planning, and the efforts made to green the cities and towns; also, I like some of the modern architecture, and some of the agricultural, horticultural and hydrological techniques and projects (irrigation, de-salinization etc).

By the same token, I have only limited respect for many of the Arabs of the wider region (I have been to Egypt, Qatar etc several times, and, in the past, had occasional dealings with Kuwaitis and other types, as well as a few visits to Tunisia).

However, the Jews should never have been allowed or encouraged to take over Palestine and turn it into the state of Israel, and their brutal repression of the Arab inhabitants (including mass killings, deportations, and other “ethnic cleansing”) has been, in effect, a 76+ year war crime.

What goes around comes around“, as the Americans say, and I think that the time will come when Israel will face fleets of drones and missiles, numbered in the tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands.

Tel Aviv may, one day, look not unalike to Gaza today.

Macron discussed with French politicians a possible French invasion of Ukraine.

The leader of the French Communist Party, Fabien Roussel, told reporters that the topic was raised at a meeting between the president and the heads of political parties.

According to him, Macron allowed the entry of French troops into Ukraine if the Russian Armed Forces break through towards Odessa or Kyiv.

“There are no restrictions and no red lines,” concluded Jordan Bardella (National Rally). “I arrived excited and left even more worried,” concluded La France insoumise coordinator Manuel Bompard,” writes L’Indépendant.

Also in Paris, they are now discussing issuing permission for French special forces to cross the Ukrainian border, to create a “strategic dilemma” before the Russian Federation. And French Foreign Minister Sejournet said that Kyiv has not yet asked Paris to send troops, but “nothing cannot be ruled out in the coming months.”

Ha ha! What’s that? Revenge for Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow, 212 years on? Madness.

I shall be sorry to see Paris destroyed, if it comes to that, even though it has become largely a poubelle (rubbish bin). France may have its force de frappe (independent nuclear deterrent), but if it ever uses it, Paris and all other major French cities will be annihilated.

The French discussions, though, do seem to give the lie to the outpourings of Grant Shapps and others. Macron is obviously not expecting a Kiev-regime advance in 2024; au contraire… he expects Russian advances upon Kiev and Odessa. So do I, though whether they will be in 2024 or 2025 (after the US and UK elections this year) is an open question.

God. Biden is in a world of his own. He really is gone…

In respect of the Israeli war crimes in Gaza as well.

They show their true character…

Yet “they” (both in Israel and outside Israel, inc. the UK), continue to whine about (and demand “reparations” for) what Germans, Poles, Ukrainians etc did or did not do to Jews in Eastern Europe, 80+ years ago.

The Harry Formerly Known As Prince, and Meghan Mulatta. What a pair.

Now that the late Queen fades from memory, it is time to move to a republic.

Also, people from poorer countries outside Europe can live off small amounts of food-money, because they are accustomed to making their money stretch. I have had to do it myself a few times in the past, but it seems to come naturally to those such as a Nigerian girl I met in the 1980s, when she was a tenant of someone I knew. She would go to the street market a mile or so away in Peckham (South London), buy rice or potato by the sack, cook it with some hot spices and sauce etc, maybe add some small amount of protein, or not even that, and bingo…dinner served.

In fact, I seem to recall the same was true of a West Indian girl, another tenant of the same landlord, and also in the 1980s. She had been sacked for theft by her employer, the wife of an MI5 officer (she denied that she had stolen anything, but was sacked anyway), and was another one with basically no, or very little, cash.

I myself am not naturally a thrifty person, but I have blogged in the past about how I have had a few (in the American word) “hardscrabble” times in my life. You adapt, one way or another…

Last week, I told you about the Labour Party’s plan to import divisive, America-style culture wars into Britain —how the party plans to hardwire a toxic woke ideology into our civil service, schools, universities, and prevailing culture.

This week, I’m going to tell you how Labour also plan to make their political and cultural revolution permanent —by taking power out of the hands of the elected government in Westminster, out of the hands of the masses, and giving it to unaccountable quangos and civil servants you will never be able to vote out of power.

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable” [John F. Kennedy]

The present “Conservative” Government has to be removed, and the Con Party stamped on, but Labour under Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer is going to impose an “elected” dictatorship. It will be all but impossible to change that path by the usual Parliamentary/electoral methods.

The SNP is led by a Pakistani Muslim. Scottish Labour is also led by a Pakistani Muslim. What is strange is that Muslims only comprise 1.4% of the population of Scotland (about 75,000 out of 5.4M), yet two out of the three main System parties in Scotland have Muslim leaders. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotland#Population.

I favoured Brexit, but saw that it was (deliberately) mishandled from the start. A journalist in 2017 visited the civil service office that was meant to be planning for a smooth withdrawal, only to find it shut. That says it all.

“We are where we are”, in the commonly-heard phrase. For me, Britain’s main strategic move must be to withdraw from NATO before some lunatic starts a Third World War, and at the same time to pursue an independent course combined with a close friendship with the Russian Federation.

Russia can supply us with oil and gas at cheap rates, maybe even cost-price or below. It could save us.

Yet those mild anxious or protesting tweets have led to a flood of Twitter/X “woke” idiocy, as in the tweet below by one Andy Walsh:

Ignorance posing as wisdom…

Money, in vast amounts, wasted on the “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic, on no-hope stuff such as “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime), money wasted on Israel and the UK Jewish lobby, huge sums expended on the upkeep and health of millions of migrant-invader parasites, money in even greater amounts wasted on a largely-useless State educational system. Further vast sums spent on pointless “Defence” hardware.

As Goodwin says, all spent without much real benefit to the majority of UK residents, especially the real British.

As said earlier and previously, I shall be sorry to see Paris turned into a wasteland of irradiated ash, even if in recent years it has become rather a poubelle

Twitter/X is now full of idiots saying that Lydon is “wrong“, “gammon“, a “hypocrite” (because his family was Irish—as if that is equivalent to being a Congolese or Afghan…) etc.

All one has to do is remember that active Twitter/X is a very small world (perhaps 1% of the British people, and very atypical, which is why its “woke” apparent majority always gets it wrong politically, from the result of the Brexit Referendum to Trump’s first Presidential election to (you name it).

Amazing that people are somehow surprised at all. The economy was deliberately (and for no good reason) largely shut down for two years, and by Government decree, during which time millions of people were paid to stay home watching TV, or drinking, or paid to work (at well below peak capacity) from home.

At the same time, and over recent years, half a million to a million useless parasites per year, from all over the world, have been imported to the UK as fake “students”, “high-skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer), “family members”, fake fiances/fiancees etc, and/or allowed to stay having come here illegally on small boats. Most of them supported entirely from Government funds.

That is in addition to vast sums wasted otherwise during the panicdemic/scamdemic: “test and trace”, “PPE” etc.

Britain continues to go down, both economically and socially. Look at the cities: people sleeping in the streets, which are overrun anyway with unwanted migrant hordes from all over the world. In the countryside, the roads are like those I recall from driving in Bulgaria and Greece etc 20-25 years ago; potholed, poorly-surfaced and, unlike those of Bulgaria or Turkey decades ago, overcrowded.

Then look at the UK’s police (who prefer to snoop on bloggers and Twitter/X accounts rather than do their proper job), or the NHS (which is almost a skeleton service).

Oh, and the Jew Shapps was in Kiev on Thursday, throwing more British taxpayer monies at Zelensky’s brutal, corrupt, and shambolic dictatorship, which is about to be flattened by a Russian steamroller.

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/07/former-commander-in-chief-zalushnyi-to-become-ukraines-ambassador-to-uk

Ukraine’s former commander in chief, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, is to become the country’s next ambassador to the UK, a month after he was fired by the president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, from his job leading the military.

[The Guardian]

Quite a contrast to Mr. Komissarenko [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serhiy_Komisarenko], the Ukrainian Ambassador to London in the mid-1990s, with whom I travelled one fine day to the highly-guarded Porton Down microbiological laboratories on Salisbury Plain. I blogged about that a couple of times, so anyone interested can find my account on the blog via the search box.

About 29 years ago. How time flies.

It also occurs to me that almost all the Ukrainians, of all social/educational levels, I have met (admittedly not a huge number) have been very full of their own importance; that was certainly the case with Komissarenko.

There is no justification for acts of rape. There is no justification for acts of massacre. Those are war crimes. But in certain conditions, expulsion is not a war crime. I don’t think that the expulsions of 1948 were war crimes.[8]” [Benny Morris, Israeli historian, quoted on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benny_Morris].

On that basis, the expulsion of Jews from Germany was not a crime either…

The Jew Shapps is both mendacious and, at the same time, a total clown. Ukraine (Kiev regime) in fact cannot “win” against Russia, even to the extent of “taking back” Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts. If there were even a possibility of it, Russia could and probably would flatten all major Ukrainian cities.

Shapps is, of course, also lying when he calls Ukraine “a democracy“. Brutal, shambolic, corrupt; a country where press-gangs kidnap men off the streets for use as army cannon-fodder, and where young girls who are caught stealing lipsticks etc are almost “tarred and feathered”, tied to lamp-posts while people assault and insult them. A country where elections are now banned, as are trade unions and all free speech.

No-one who, like Jukes, calls an actress an “actor” can be taken seriously.

For once, “antifa” cheerleader Stuchbery makes a good point.

Stuchbery often used to tweet very negatively against me, and made common cause with the Jews on Twitter/X who have been trying to attack me for years, so I blogged about him. He did not like it: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/10/23/a-few-words-about-mike-stuchbery/.

Still, credit where due… #MoralHighGround.

(ps. so Stuchbery is getting on, or has already signed on, the German dole,…as I predicted a few years ago. He must have long ago spent his share, if any, of the £12,000 he, thick “antifa”-loving Twitter nuisance Louise Raw, and a dodgy Pakistani solicitor, raised from a thousand mugs, ostensibly “to sue Tommy Robinson“.

No-one (as far as I know) has any idea where the monies disappeared to went. Not a fortune, I know (especially if divided three ways) but, all the same, something like a thousand mugs stumped up £5 or £10 or £20 each in good faith, and were cheated, I think.

I always liked Paris, though it is far from what it was when I was first there in 1970. In recent years, the migration invasion has ruined it, but I should still be sad were the city to be flattened and irradiated by a Russian missile attack. Hopefully, French people will be able to depose or otherwise remove NWO/ZOG agent Macron, and so not have to face directly the nuclear might of Russia.

Former US intelligence officer: Penetrating the Crimean bridge would be a direct act of war against Russia ” German military officers are talking about the use of Taurus missiles against Russia. But not only against Russia, but about the possibility of hitting a civilian target, the Crimean bridge… This is a direct act of war ,” said former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter.

Such actions by Germany, as he says, could drag the USA into a conflict with Russia that would end in a nuclear war. Therefore, the recording of the conversation between the German officers published by the Russian media should become the number one topic in the United States, he emphasizes.”

A mother with Stage 4 cancer claims she was left ‘traumatised’ when High Court enforcement officers (HCEO) evicted her from her house – leaving her outside in the cold until the early hours of the morning.

Video footage shows around ten security and enforcement officers surrounding Sheena Williams’ home in Plains Avenue, Maidstone, Kent, while police officers watch on.

The front door was eventually smashed in by the HCEOs as they forced entry into the home the 60-year-old has lived in for nearly three decades. 

When MailOnline visited the property on Thursday it was boarded up with a security team patrolling outside.   

Sheena, who has metastatic cancer and is confined to a wheelchair, was told the house was being repossessed due to an unpaid tax bill.”

Sam Melia/Laura Towler crowdfunder

[Sam Melia and his wife, Laura Towler. A hero and a Valkyrie]

Sam Melia has now been imprisoned for 3-4 days. Another 6-12 months to go, probably.

I am glad to see that their crowdfunder, established to help Laura Towler (expected to give birth to their second child soon) and Melia both survive and thrive, and to maintain political struggle both during the coming year and thereafter, has gathered in, as of time and date of writing, some £54,000, and is still increasing rapidly. When I first mentioned the crowdfunder on the blog, last Thursday, it was at nearly £48,000, so well over £1,000 a day has been donated over the past days. Excellent.

If anyone wants to donate and/or leave a message of support, the link is at https://www.givesendgo.com/sammelia.

Minimum donation £4. Show solidarity, stick it to the System, and help what seem to be good people (for sake of clarity, I am personally unacquainted with them, and do not belong to Patriotic Alternative).

Incidentally, this is what the CPS have had to say about the Sam Melia “case”: https://www.cps.gov.uk/cps/news/updated-sentence-far-right-organiser-found-guilty-intent-stir-racial-hatred-through.

It will be noted that the clowns are unable even to spell correctly the name of Oswald Mosley… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oswald_Mosley; https://www.oswaldmosley.com/. The CPS report has Mosley down as “Moseley“, like the Birmingham suburb.

So that is how the CPS and police waste huge amounts of public money, prosecuting a mere sticker-posting campaign as if it were an IRA bomb plot of the 1970s.

If the CPS and (more so) police behaviour is “Stalinist”, then so in the sense of the words of Karl Marx in The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon: “first time tragedy, second time farce“…

All the same, Sam Melia is still going to sit in prison for 6-12 months, thus punishing his wife and small children. Justice? I think not.

Europe will have nothing to defend itself with, in case it is dragged into a hypothetical conflict, retired Lieutenant General of the Armed Forces of Belgium Mark Thies said, reports the German “Mercury”.

” After a few hours we would have to throw stones. We are already in trouble. Be sure that our opponents, regardless of whether they are in Moscow, Beijing or anywhere else in the world, know about our lack of ammunition, ” Tees said.

According to his opinion, the main problem of the EU is small stocks, which consist of high-quality ammunition, and the process of replacing them and filling the warehouse is a difficult task that requires a lot of time. ” If you order them today, they may take up to seven years to deliver ,” he believes.”

The other problem, not mentioned, and never mentioned by System msm outlets, is that, if things continue for much longer as they have been in European societies, there will be nothing to defend anyway. Nothing worthwhile, at least.

Incidentally, it seems rather amusing to hear a Belgian, of all possible European nationalities, talk about fighting a war.

Belgium has frequently provided the battlefields (in the various 18thC wars, then at Waterloo, at Ypres, in the Ardennes in 1940, and the Ardennes again in the Battle of the Bulge of 1944) but Belgian arms have rarely been distinguished in battle. Belgium is, of course, a very small country, hard to defend: 11,000 square miles, not very much larger than Wales, or Israel, or New Jersey (all around 8,000 square miles).

Having said that, I hope that Reform UK does get plenty of votes at GE 2024, and so helps to stamp on the Conservative Party, even if helping the now-equally-evil Labour Party into “elected dictatorship”; and that a Con Party collapse will in turn help in breaking up the “two main parties” scam that still bamboozles many people.

Good riddance.

If the “preferences” of non-whites resident in the UK were not counted, that latter figure would be 0%.

The Jew-Zionists play it differently in France, the UK etc; there, they try to abuse laws of various kinds in order to repress free speech and freedom of expression, while trying to keep a stranglehold on the mainstream media.

The unfortunate population of Gaza suffers and suffers, while the Israeli and other Jew-Zionists mock their suffering in Tik-Tok and other online postings. “They” are laughing (so far).

The last time (the last major time, at least) that France gave (an entirely worthless) “security guarantee” was in March 1939: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Polish_alliance.

That went well…

Poland was then (September 1939) flattened by invasions from two sides, by the German Reich advancing from the west, and by the Red Army advancing from the east (with a few other little incursions in the south as well). France (and Britain) declared war on one invader-state only, the German Reich, and did not actually lift a finger to assist Poland directly.

Beware of “guarantees”, especially from France.

The number of Albanians arriving on the small-boats rose sharply between 2020 and 2022, from 54 to 12,301, though is now beginning to fall. Yet at the same time the number of Indian nationals crossing has risen sharply, from not a single Indian in 2018 or 2019 to almost 700 last year.

Some suggest Indians are now the third-largest cohort of migrants crossing the Channel. There are currently more than 51,000 asylum-seekers living in hotels in Britain.

At the end of 2022, the total estimated one-year cost of asylum-related spending on hotel accommodation, asylum-related allowances, healthcare, and school places – along with supporting new bodies like the Small Boats Operational Command (SBOC) and a technical unit specialising in asylum applications by Albanians – is now estimated to be in the region of £3.5 billion.

Put another way, last year the UK government spent three and a half times more accommodating newcomers in hotels (£2.2 billion) than the £630 million spent tackling homelessness in the UK, or spent more money accommodating newcomers than it spent on the latest fund for Levelling-up the left behind regions outside of London (£2.1 billion).

[Matt Goodwin, on his Substack blog].

In theory, there is almost no limit to the numbers who can claim “asylum” in the UK. The applicable law and rules were passed at a time or times when it was never envisaged that globalization and international disorder might result in huge populations, hundreds of millions of people, deciding to relocate en masse to Europe, including the UK.

If sceptics say, “it would never happen” (that hundreds of millions might strike out for the UK), the present migration-invasion (both “legal” and “illegal”) was never thought, by the average Joe, to be likely to happen, either. I can recall being ridiculed for suggesting that it might happen. That was in the 1970s. Look now…

Matt Goodwin, however, seems to be labouring under the misapprehension (let us politely call it that) that the System is simply incompetent, whereas in fact, amid the general incompetence of the Westminster Bubble types, there are secret and sinister plans afoot, and have been for decades: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

The continuing migration-invasion has already pretty much killed off, in most people, the pride in being British felt by most previous generations; it is also, right now, killing off what is left of the idea that the UK is “a nation” or a small group of 4-6 nations in one. It is killing off the Welfare State, the NHS, the idea that the average person without family money can buy a decent house or flat, and much else besides.

There will either be chaos or civil war, or both, by 2050 if not long before that date.

Is that surprising? Starmer is a member of Labour Friends of Israel (as is Blair, whereas Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris” Johnson, and Liz Truss are all members of Conservative Friends of Israel. Not forgetting the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak).

Starmer is of course married to a Jewish woman, a property lawyer: see https://www.tatler.com/article/the-rising-starmer-who-is-lady-victoria-starmer-tatler-january-2023-issue, and their children are being brought up as if full-Jew:

It was her parents who instilled her Jewish faith and the Starmers have continued in that tradition.

Despite Sir Keir being an atheist, the family attend The Liberal Jewish Synagogue in St John’s Wood. A politico from the Jewish community tells me: ‘Keir has fully embraced Victoria’s Jewish practice.’ Their children are said to go to Cheder lessons at the synagogue, where young people learn about Judaism.

They uphold the Shabbat tradition of Friday-night dinners with family and friends as often as they can, even taking to Zoom prayers – read by Victoria’s father – during the pandemic. Invitations to these dinners are known to be ‘highly prized’…

Her faith may in fact turn out to be significant in a political sense. As to what her first official foray into politics might be, one Westminster insider suggests that it could be connected with the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM): ‘Giving a speech to JLM would be quite an easy introduction because it is already the community she is part of.’

The group has approached Sir Keir’s office about Lady Starmer’s involvement. At the Labour Party’s annual conference in Liverpool last September, she went with Ruth Smeeth, who has since been nominated for a Labour peerage, and a small group from JLM to Liverpool Reform Synagogue to mark the first day of Jewish New Year.

Another Westminster insider says: ‘She has helped shape Keir’s understanding of anti-Semitism...”

I disagree with calling any humans, or humanoids, “animals“. The animal kingdom already suffers so much from humanity, so I prefer not to add insult to injury.

On the “terrorism” point, though, Jews have been going from the UK, France, USA etc to Israel for training and indoctrination for decades. They stand ready to do whatever they are told to do.

Victor Ostrovsky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Ostrovsky] has said (and written) that MOSSAD and other Israeli Intelligence agencies maintain arms caches in all countries except the USA. So the arms (and explosives?) are already in the UK, as are those Jews who have received military and other training in Israel. Most if not all have UK passports and mostly dual nationality. A ready-made small army…

Is the Security Service complacent about all that? Complicit? The Government actually gives Jewish organizations British taxpayers’ money in order to “assist with security”. Is there any oversight? I doubt it.

Israeli war crimes, cheered on by (it seems, looking at Twitter/X and elsewhere) many, maybe most of the Jews currently resident in the UK, France, USA etc. That, at least, is my own impression (I concede that my conclusion is based on evidence anecdotal or unscientific).

The Tories are failing to provide a serious & effective response to illegal migration while also losing control of legal migration. And now both will almost certainly soar to even higher levels under a Labour government, which has no serious plan for the former and does not care about the latter.

This will further erode public trust in politics, fuel division, cost more lives in the Channel, and undermine the legitimacy of the old politics.

The real losers in all this will be the British people who simply asked for what they were promised in 2016: control over their borders and much lower levels of immigration.

The end result –I suspect– will either be widespread apathy or the emergence of a new politics which finally takes this promise, and the British people, seriously.”

[Matt Goodwin]

First apathy, then perhaps, after the UK slides further into the mire, there may emerge, from the depths of the people, a new wave.

Zelensky began to prepare Western public opinion for total mobilization in Ukraine and the extradition of Ukrainian men: “This is a matter of law and justice. If you are of mobilization age, according to Ukrainian law, you must be in Ukraine. It is a fact. And then you will fight or not fight. You will work.

Without the help of the US and EU, Ukraine will struggle, Ukraine will be weaker and this will be an opportunity for Russia to take over us. And as soon as they capture us, believe me, it will be a war between NATO and Russia.”

The Zelensky cabal seems to have accepted that, as things stand, Russia has the strategic or positional advantage.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12620735/Rapists-spared-jail-prisons-hit-breaking-point-Judges-told-emergency-scheme-release-lower-risk-inmates-announced-ministers-early-week.html

Rapists could be spared jail from next week as prisons reach breaking point, it was reported last night.

Sex offenders and burglars could be let out on bail rather than handed an immediate custodial sentence, according to guidance issued to judges.

The most dangerous criminals will reportedly have to be held in magistrates’ court cells if they are remanded in custody.

Prisons in England and Wales are on the brink of maximum capacity, with 88,016 inmates last Friday – leaving just 650 spaces spare.

The senior presiding judge for England and Wales, Lord Edis, ordered that sentencing hearings will have to be postponed from Monday, The Times reported.”

[Daily Mail].

There has been a sentencing crisis for years. While many crimes of drunken violence, acquisitive crime etc attract, quite often, non-custodial sentences, other crimes, often very minor, not only result in prison time but in very considerable time.

Look at the political realm. Harmless teenage fantasists who have downloaded online material such as the notorious Anarchist’s Cookbook (which was sold openly in London bookshops in the 1970s, and without the State imploding) have been sentenced to terms of 4, 5, even 7 years, incredibly. Anything (political or otherwise) involving illicit possession of a weapon (even a WW2 revolver) has attracted sentencing as severe, or more severe.

Likewise, there have been sentenced to prison people such as Alison Chabloz (sentenced to a number of months for posting “antisemitic” satirical songs and cartoons online), Jez Turner (a year, for having suggested in a brief speech in Whitehall that Jews should be driven out from England as they were under Edward I in the 14th Century), and “Sven Longshanks” (James Allchurch, sentenced to a very harsh 2.5 years for having posted “antisemitic” material on an internet radio station).

The alert reader will have noted the common factor in the immediately-above three Draconian sentences, but what do you expect when 10 Downing Street has the Israeli flag projected onto its facade? Or when Keir Starmer, posing as Labour Party leader, thinks that the Israeli ethnostate has every right to cut off water, food, and electricity (and everything else) from the 2 million inhabitants of Gaza.

As far as non-political crimes are concerned, one often sees newspaper reports these days about various types of criminal sentenced to, say, terms of 4, 5, or 6 years in prison, when a far shorter term of, say, a couple of years would really suffice. Likewise, people are sometimes —in fact, often— sentenced to a year or more in circumstances where, even retaining a custodial element, a few months would be more than enough.

At the present time, the crisis of available space would easily be solved if judges were to work out carefully, as they are supposed to do, the proper sentence in every case, but then, after all that, cut off a percentage, as an emergency administrative-judicial measure. Say 20%, so that a headline sentence of 5 years becomes one of 4 years, or one of 2.5 years becomes one of 2 years. That would scarcely impact anything other than space in prisons and, within a few months, would start to solve the present problem.

Captain Sir Tom Moore‘s daughter has confessed to pocketing £800,000 from books written by the NHS fundraising war veteran.

In a tearful interview, Hannah Ingram-Moore revealed how the family received the money thanks to her father – whose lockdown walks raised £39million for the nation’s health service.

Mrs Ingram-Moore said her father wanted them to keep the profits from his three books: Captain Tom’s Life Lessons, One Hundred Steps and his autobiography Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day.

The family is also adamant that people buying the books were never told their money was going to charity. 

However, the prologue of his autobiography calls this claim into question and suggests the veteran thought his books were just another way for him to raise cash. 

The extract read: ‘Astonishingly at my age, with the offer to write this memoir I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name.’

[Daily Mail].

I was in the minority of sceptics when the old ex-officer (he spent 6 years in uniform during WW2) started his “crusade”. While arguably wrongheaded, one had to respect the grit of the old fellow, yet the whole thing played into the “scamdemic” propaganda of the time, and even the £30M raised probably did little to help the maladministered NHS.

I could see that the daughter and her husband were basically a pair of freeloaders, if not outright frauds, but people so badly (and rightly) want to believe. In something. In anything. You only have to look at the well-known online “grifters” and frauds around. “Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, “Man Behaving Dadly” etc. There are dozens, probably hundreds, of them. They destroy trust in society, as do some of the family of the late Captain Moore.

I think that I may start including a random historical note from Wikipedia etc in all my blog posts. It is quite shocking how few British people know their own history, even in outline.

Admittedly, this is not a new problem. G.K. Chesterton has his Father Brown character complain about it a number of times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._K._Chesterton.

[little boy and his dead cat, following Israeli air attack on Gaza]

Were the atrocities not so terrible, it would be funny to see the UK Jewish/Israel lobby all both pushing out (identical) Israeli propaganda and —at the same time— saying, when asked about the quasi-genocidal Israeli Gaza siege, and mass murder of Gazan civilians, “oh, no, that has nothing to do with us; we bear no responsibility” and “we are just opposed to antisemitism, the actions of Israel are nothing to do with our campaigning in the UK...”.

Etc.

Typical.

Incidentally, I have never seen political fraud and con-man Nigel Farage so pumped-up as when parroting the current Israeli propaganda line in the past few days.

In the wake of the merciless assault by Hamas, Israel seems to be planning the same approach.

All the signs are that its government is preparing to retaliate on a massive scale, mobilising the country’s formidable armed forces against Gaza, which is controlled by Hamas.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared: ‘What we will do to our enemies in the coming days will reverberate for generations.’

His defence minister Yoav Gallant has added: ‘We are fighting human animals – and we act accordingly.

Yet just as Iraq turned out to be a calamitous error, fuelling a lasting cycle of violence, so I fear that – however understandable – any attempt by Israel to exact its vengeance with a savage display of military might could be just as disastrous.”

“…a full invasion, such as Israel’s generals are surely discussing today, would be a bloody quagmire. For Jerusalem, it would mean a conveyor belt of tired soldiers fighting day and night, resupplying with food, water and military hardware, rotating and evacuating casualties, for months on end.

It would chew up thousands of troops for little or no benefit, and poison the Arab world, and to a certain extent the international community, against the Jewish state.

Alas, it looks like Israel is set to take precisely this route.

Already the country has launched a barrage of air strikes, causing heavy civilian casualties – unsurprising given that more than two million people are living in a strip the size of the Isle of Wight.” [in fact, smaller than the Isle of Wight— 141 sq. miles as against 148].

This bombardment has been buttressed by a siege designed to weaken the morale of the citizenry by cutting off their water and electricity.

Yet what is the ultimate objective? What does ‘victory’ for Israel even look like?”

[Gaza City, already devastated by Israeli air attack]

It would be even more interesting were Israel to face attack or, even more so, invasion from the directions of Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, and perhaps even (though even less likely) from Egypt, and if the Palestinian Arabs of the West Bank were also to join in the fight.

The immediately-above scenario is unlikely, true, but the Americans must have some reason to have moved one of their fleets closer to the region.

If such a concerted invasion and uprising were to happen, though, Israel could be destroyed, its population fleeing in panic.

I face trial late next month on 5 counts of contravening the notorious s.127 of the Communications Act 2003 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission). Behind that prosecution, a pack of Jew-Zionists.

I cannot write about all that prior to trial, for reasons of potential contempt of court etc, but one aspect of the case is that I am alleged to have claimed that, in the UK, most of the TV and Press is effectively in the hands of Jew-Zionists (as Rupert Murdoch said years ago— and he is 100% pro-Israel…).

What do you think, blog readers?

Margaret Hodge is just another Jew-Zionist liar and hypocrite.

As in the infamous 1990 Kuwait atrocity story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony.

In 1992, it was revealed that Nayirah’s last name was Al-Ṣabaḥ (Arabic: نيرة الصباح) and that she was the daughter of Saud Al-Sabah, the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States. Furthermore, it was revealed that her testimony was organized as part of the Citizens for a Free Kuwait public relations campaign, which was run by the American public relations firm Hill & Knowlton for the Kuwaiti Government. Following this, al-Sabah’s testimony has come to be regarded as a classic example of modern atrocity propaganda.”

[Wikipedia]

[Nayirah al-Sabah, the lying Kuwaiti bitch at the centre of the faked 1990 Kuwait atrocity story]

I was in New York at the time, in 1990. Those lies (blown up hugely by the Jew-Zionist mass media) were quite effective in moulding the TV narratives and the political conversation etc.

Water cut off, food cut off, electricity and gas cut off; all other supplies cut off, and area bombing and rocketing of civilian areas, in a “ghetto” occupied by 2 million inhabitants, 600,000 of whom live in Gaza City.

Of the 2 million Palestinian Arabs in the Gaza Strip, about 1 million are under-18, and most of that million are young children.

If there was ever a war crime amounting to at least quasi-genocide, this surely must be it.

Emily Thornberry, entitled “Labour” hog, with a part-Jew husband and a dozen buy-to-let properties. In fact, the only reason she ever joined Labour was because her well-paid lawyer/journalist/diplomat father abandoned her mother, and the mother had to move to a council property (in Surrey). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Thornberry; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cedric_Thornberry.

She was called to the Bar at Gray’s Inn and practised as a barrister specialising in human rights law from 1985 to 2005 under Michael Mansfield at Tooks Chambers.”

Human rights” expert; you couldn’t make it up…

As I mentioned yesterday, the “human rights” lawyers (often Jewish, though she herself is not) seem to have gone AWOL now that Israel is involved…

[Emily Thornberry, some years ago, with (in centre) Mark Regev, then Israeli Ambassador, at a Zionist dinner in London]

If, as voter, you vote Labour now, you get moneygrubbing tools of Israel such as Emily Thornberry (and Rachel Reeves, and Yvette Cooper, and Keir Starmer). Why bother?

Emily Thornberry, “human rights” lawyer (etc), who thinks it justifiable for Israel to cut off water and food (etc) from 2 million people, almost all of whom (about 96%) are non-combatants, half of whom are under-18, and hundreds of thousands of whom are young or very young children.

I used to wonder what Israeli Intelligence had on Murray to make him the unashamed propagandist for Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby that he is. Now, I tend to think that he is just deeply psychologically damaged.

As for Julia Hartley-Brewer, I think (am unsure) that she is part-Jewish. She is certainly rather ignorant; I had to correct her on a couple of legal points when I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews managed to have me expelled in 2018). Instead of thanking me for schooling her, she tried to obfuscate, and then blocked me.

Murray is right with his “flare” metaphor, though. These events have shown what group really pulls the strings of our “democratic” political parties, and System politicians. With a tiny number of honourable exceptions, all puppets of Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby. From Sunak to Starmer, and from Emily Thornberry to that fraudulent bastard Nigel Farage.

The war in Ukraine continues, but the Kiev regime now has to play second fiddle to the Israeli regime.

The Kiev regime is toast, and Zelensky is already looking like yesterday’s man.

As often seen in the past, Israel getting its “defence” in first…

Syria and Lebanon, and Jordan and Egypt, should all do everything they can to defend themselves.

BREAKING: Israel bombed the international airports of Aleppo and Damascus in Syria, forcing them out of service. Bombing civilian airports in Syria. Massacring entire families in Gaza. Dropping white phosphorus on Lebanon and Gaza. This is the Israel that Western media tells you is a “victim”…”

Zelensky is worried because the help of Western allies is weakening The Ukrainian authorities want to get a new series of weapons in order to attack Russian positions after the unsuccessful summer counter-offensive, “ABC” writes. “Ukraine is desperate for more weapons to help its troops take over the positions of Russian units before the ground on the front turns muddy,” the newspaper said. According to the media, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived at the NATO headquarters in Brussels on Wednesday, as Kiev is becoming worried about the weakening of aid from the West, which until recently provided constant support to the Ukrainian armed forces.”

Don’t forget the “out-stations” of Zionism across the world.

As previously blogged, the armed forces of the Kiev regime are running out of cannon-fodder. There are few if any volunteers from Ukraine itself, and the virtue-signalling nitwits and would-be “soldiers of fortune” from the UK, USA etc have either been killed or returned home, and the supply has now dried-up. Thus the regime uses press-gangs to force service upon ever-less-useful categories of recruit: the disabled, the middle-aged, those with various illnesses etc.

“Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) has only one chance— to drag NATO into the war. All their efforts are directed to that end.

I must have missed that, from last month:

Israel-based solicitor Mark Lewis has been heavily criticised by Mr Justice Nicklin in a recent High Court judgement. Lewis is known for acting for Rachel Riley against Mike Sivier and Laura Murray, and for John Ware against Jewish Voice for Labour and Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi. Lewis also acted for the late Dr Pete Newbon – a director of the notorious so-called ‘Labour Against Antisemitism’ (LAAS) group who was repeatedly disciplined by his employers for his behaviour on social media and was being sued by another of his victims – in his libel claim against Michael Rosen after Rosen had complained about Newbon’s tweeted misuse of Rosen’s famous ‘Bear Hunt’ book to attack former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

In the recent case, Lewis came unstuck when he was acting for Richard Davidoff of ABC Estates, a lettings and leasehold management firm. Lewis was seeking a court order requiring Google to disclose the identities of people with gmail addresses who had left negative reviews about ABC Estates on Trustpilot. The evidence in support of the court order was two witness statement by Lewis. The judge described Lewis’ evidence in general as “nothing more than assertion” and “perfunctory, even desultory” and “simply not good enough” to justify making the court order.

Things then got much worse for Lewis. He had stated that the Trustpilot reviews were “false, fabricated statements which Unknown person(s) know are untrue”. The judge conducted some online research himself and found that one of the reviews was true and based on the findings of another court. The judge said it was:

a matter of very real concern that the Claimants put evidence before the Court, on an ex parte application, that was not true.

The judge did not require Lewis to provide an explanation for the evidence that was “seriously in error” and accepted that Lewis would not have knowingly misled the court. The judge’s explained Lewis’ evidence as being:

because he had simply failed to carry out sufficient (or any) research or to take adequate instructions from his clients.

The judge also stated that there had been a “significant failure” by Lewis to comply with the general obligation of full and frank disclosure. The judge refused all the applications and the escapade is likely to have costs Lewis’ clients tens of thousands of pounds. Perhaps Lewis’ claim against Michael Rosen would have ended in the same way?

Mr Justice Nicklin’s full judgment is available here, with comments about Lewis’s contribution from paragraph 84 onwards.

Mark Lewis is a former director of UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) until his emigration to Israel and was involved in the relaunch of right-wing pro-Israel group Herut UK. UKLFI locked access to a YouTube video in which a panel discussed Lewis’s “very handy way of bankrupting organisations” the group considered to have done ‘wrong’. However, a transcript of the discussion is still available.

In 2018, Lewis was fined by the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority for abusive speech on social media toward a young Labour-supporting critic and others.

[Skwawkbox]

Some of my blog posts from past years about the egregious Lewis:

[other posts are linked via the one above]

Lewis was (is still?) a “Patron” of the malicious Jew-Zionist cabal known as the “Campaign Against Anti-Semitism” or “CAA”.

Incidentally, the title “Patron” does not indicate financial support. When Lewis was censured and fined by the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority a few years ago, his fine was reduced by two-thirds after his Counsel told the tribunal that Lewis’s sole assets were his clothes, a private pension worth £70 a week, and a used mobility scooter! So much for the so-called (sometimes, but only by the naive and ignorant) “top lawyer”! He then scuttled off to Israel.

Here is more on that story:

Richard Davidoff, of ABC Estates, and his legal team bungled a high court attempt to force Google to reveal the identities of online reviewers whose comments they claimed were false and defamatory.

The case unravelled after libel lawyer Mark Lewis, of Patron Law, accused one reviewer of writing a “false, fabricated statement” that referenced the decision by ARMA and IRPM to expel ABC Estates and Richard Davidoff.

Mr Justice Nicklin became peppery in his ruling (below, pp84-89) as his own “basic online research” revealed that this allegation was in fact true…”

It is a matter of very real concern that the Claimants put evidence before the Court, on an ex parte application, that was not true.

Mr Lewis has not provided an explanation to the Court for this error (I have not required him to provide one). Nevertheless, I accept that Mr Lewis would not have knowingly misled the Court.

It is likely that this error occurred because he had simply failed to carry out sufficient (or any) research or to take adequate instructions from his clients. Nevertheless, as a result, he included a statement in his witness statement that was seriously in error. That error was not detected (or corrected) by the Claimants.

[Mr. Justice Nicklin, in the High Court]

The High Court judge accepted that Lewis “would not have knowingly misled the Court” (but why accept that? Lewis is hardly a credible witness). Still, as the extract shows, Lewis (once again) “bungled” his work…

The judge [also] said “the underlying claims in defamation are hopelessly weak”.

[Mr. Justice Nicklin, reported by LKP]

Neither Lewis nor the Counsel in the case (also used by Lewis in other cases in the past several years) seem to have taken that last into account.

Historical note

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

In 1907, Dr. Henry Cotton became the medical director. Believing that infections were the key to mental illness, he had his staff remove teeth and various other body parts that might become infected from the hospital patients. Cotton’s legacy of hundreds of fatalities and thousands of maimed and mutilated patients did not end with his leaving Trenton in 1930 or his death in 1933; in fact, removal of patients’ teeth at the Trenton asylum was still the norm until 1960.[3]
