I sincerely hope that someone or other will be at least equally “ruthless” to “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, Lammy and the rest.
Rachel Reeves, aka “Rachel from Accounts (and Customer Relations)” has a grasp of real-world economics about as great, i.e. as poor, as George Osborne. Meaning very poor.
I wish some passer-by or anyone would just kick those women and their co-conspirators in the head. Smug, entitled, wrongheaded sub-terrorists. Yet look…all that the people there are doing is watching and/or taking stupid telephone videos of the incident.
If the criminals are arrested (and even that is doubtful), some magistrate will probably only give them a suspended sentence, which will not deter the next lot to do something similar.
As for wildlife extinction and the environment, I would bet the shirt off my back that those old or old-looking women support the nonsense of “refugees welcome”, the migration invasion, mass immigration etc. It is the superabundance of backward people in the world that is killing Nature, not oil and gas. Trying telling such idiots, though…they would not want to know. They have facile slogans where their brains should be.
I have blogged about Extinction Rebellion and its Just Stop Oil overlap in the past. My blog posts can be found via the search box on the blog.

Labour hated, “Conservatives” (under a silly and useless Nigerian woman carpetbagger) despised, LibDems a dustbin for uncertain votes, or a non-choice. Result— Reform UK, though underwhelming, as a straw at which to clutch, and at the same time a serious protest vote.
According to Electoral Calculus, that, at a General Election, would make Reform UK the official Opposition: Labour 269 Commons seats, Reform 149, Conservatives 101, LibDems 73, Greens 6. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.
The most likely outcome there would of course be a Lab/LibDem coalition, or maybe a Lab minority govt. with LibDem support. If either of those, then there might be a LibDem demand for proportional representation, to replace the current ridiculous First-Past-The-Post voting system.
Incidentally, such a voting result would also mean that about 143 Labour MPs would be culled, and another 20 Con Party MPs would also lose their seats.
Also incidentally, if that result were to be changed in only one small aspect, Reform UK going up from 25% to 26% (with all other vote shares unchanged), the end result would be Lab 259, Reform 173, Con 87, LibDems 73, Green 6. That would be existentially disastrous for the Con Party

“Why is Britain going bankrupt and what might this mean? Let’s take a look.
First it is worth noting, Labour et al might calm the markets in the short-term but what markets are telling us is that there is a festering problem – even if this goes away in the coming weeks it will keep coming back.
There are short-term and long-term trends driving the bankruptcy; a few of the long-term trends are poor resource allocation in the public sector, aging population and low growth; short-term trends are basically COVID-19 spending and spending on energy price guarantees due to Ukraine war – also BoE’s enormous losses from QE aren’t helping.
Britain can always print money to finance its debt but the problem is that foreign debt sales keep sterling propped up which, in turn, keeps UK living standards propped up at an artificial level; if sterling were allowed fall to close the large trade deficit and Britons were forced to live within their means, living standards would be lower – probably significantly lower.
If/when the bankruptcy takes place there are basically two paths that it can take: either the government impose harsh austerity, likely by handing the reins to the OBR and the Treasury, or the country is put into receivership and the keys are handed to the IMF.
There is some talk that the IMF option is like what happened in 1976 – yes and no; in 1976 UK government debt was below 50% of GDP and while the country’s trade deficit was large it had only opened two years beforehand; today government debt is well over 100% of GDP and the trade deficit is not only enormous but has been enormous for 20 years (!).
Britain lives beyond its means by managing capital via the City of London; rather than producing goods to export the country tries to attract capital inflows sustain higher levels of consumption than the economy would naturally allow – but a serious crisis will change all this making the situation very different to 1976.
In 1976 the UK was really just trying to stabilise sterling amidst some troublesome worldwide inflationary pressures while today the country needs to be treated like the typical patient that the IMF gets its hands on.
Nor would such an austerity program even look like, say, Ireland after 2011 which was aimed at bringing down wage costs and making the country competitive again – this meant that the country went through a few years of pain and recession but then emerged with their living standards intact and started growing once more.
Rather any austerity program that is applied by Britain – whether by the IMF or by OBR-Treasury, or some combination of the three – would look more like what happened to Greece after 2011: a managed, permanent decline in living standards.“
Is there a silver lining? There would be, if all the above led to a real social-national government and “a revaluation of all values“…

System drones Ian Hislop and Andrew Marr attack Elon Musk. There is an agenda here, as in “the public should trust the System mass media“.
Hislop, together with his totally unfunny pseudo-satire Have I Got News For You cabal, is to our society what the supposedly funny, supposedly satirical, Krokodil magazine was to Soviet society. Meaning— approved “satire” by approved “satirists” attacking “safe” targets.
Hislop has made a good thing for himself (and his bank balance) out of attacking “the right” targets. The same or similar might be said of Marr. Look at how they think, or want the public to think, that the mainstream media can be trusted. It could be called stupid to think like that, but Hislop knows exactly what he is doing.
As for Marr, a disgraceful System-approved journalist. His views? See below:

“A pensioner was visited by armed police at his house after ‘jokingly’ asking a Barclays bank agent whether he needed to walk into a branch with ‘a bomb strapped to my shirt to get some attention’.
Eric Trim, 75, from Royston, Hertfordshire, was mystified after discovering that his £14,000 bank account was closed due to inactivity just weeks before Christmas.
The pensioner was forced to take out a loan to buy Christmas presents for his children and grandchildren before spending more than four hours on the phone to various different Barclays agents to resolve the issue.
After feeling as though he was getting ‘nowhere’ with each representative, he snapped in frustration and in a ‘tongue-in-cheek way’ said he will ‘walk into your bank in Cambridge’ and ‘tell them I’ve got a bomb strapped to my shirt to get your attention.’
Just two weeks later, two armed police officers arrived at his house to arrest him and suspended his firearms licence due to him being listed as a ‘threat’.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, the 75-year-old slammed Barclays bank for showing ‘no care’ towards him and questioned whether Britain has become a ‘police state’ after the officers arrived at his door.“
[Daily Mail]
That report just typifies so much about how Britain now operates.
Someone’s bank account closed down for no good reason.
The inability of a huge and profitable company (in this case, Barclay’s Bank) to deal with a simple enquiry and matter.
The afraid-of-their-own-shadows Barclay’s employees, who obviously ticked some kind of box as an excuse for their own incompetence and the bank’s inability to operate in a customer-friendly way.
Or maybe, the bank drones were the kind of idiots who, during the 2020-2022 “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, reported people for not wearing a facemask muzzle etc.
Finally, the equally-boxticking behaviour of the police plods, who obviously did not really believe that the bank customer was “a threat“, looking at how they took two weeks after complaint was made to go to his house and arrest him (and then justified their unnecessary arrest by ticking another box and suspending his shotgun licence; thus they can now close the case with “appropriate action” having been, supposedly, taken…).
The fact that the police arrived and rang the doorbell, when they supposedly viewed the poor chap as “a threat” who had a shotgun as well as, in the Barclays/police fantasy, a bomb, says it all.
Pathetic.
As to whether Britain has become a “police state”, yes it has, though (so far) mainly a pathetic velvet-glove one, and one which attacks mainly decent citizens, not the rabble who should be dealt with.

(so much for their claims to be ancient, or to have any real connection to the Jews or Israelites mentioned in the Bible)…
“Here’s how all Zionist arguments collapse upon the slightest examination: “We were here first”: no, the Canaanites were, and many Palestinians have Canaanite DNA (& Jewish DNA as well, per Ben Gurion himself). Now prove yourself each of you is a direct descendant of someone who inhabited this land!
“We’re returning to our homeland” so said the French & Italians in Libya & Algeria “we are returning to & recovering Roman lands.” “But the West Bank is ours b/c of the bible”, that’s not how international law works, its utmost principle is a prohibition on acquisition of territory by force; i.e. you can’t just steal land by conquest & military power anymore!
“God promised it to us”; a) good luck arguing this in court. B) then why did he take it away from you for 2000 years? “We had a Jewish kingdom on this land for about 250 years”: and Muslims have been sovereign on this land for 1400 years! Does Greece have a right today to occupy Turkey’s Istanbul/Constantinople b/c it was once part of the Byzantine empire?
“The world gave us Israel in 1947”: no they didn’t & they don’t have the right to! The UN then had only 57 members out of 193 member states today. Even then, & despite intense US/Zionist lobbying & intimidation, only 33 states voted for (mostly white) the Partition Plan as a proposal. The partition resolution was never voted on at the UN Security Council.
“But we were persecuted in Europe for centuries culminating with the Holocaust”: but why should I pay the price of European savagery & antisemitism?
“We have a right to return 2,000 years later”, then why doesn’t my grandma have that right only 76 years later?
That’s why no state has a “right to exist”. Because who/what gave them that right?
Despite all this, Palestinians unrequitedly recognised Israel over 3 decades ago, accepted its existence as a fait accompli, & accepted less than 22% of our homeland; & that is called today “Palestinian maximalism/rejectionism”, while Israel offering us caged bantustans worse than apartheid South Africa is call “a generous offer”!
[Ashkenazic Jews in Jerusalem, c. 1885. God’s sake! Just look at them!]
“New research suggests that the majority of the world’s modern Jewish population is descended mainly from people from ancient Turkey, rather than predominantly from elsewhere in the Middle East.
The new research suggests that most of the Jewish population of northern and eastern Europe – normally known as Ashkenazic Jews – are the descendants of Greeks, Iranians and others who colonized what is now northern Turkey more than 2000 years ago and were then converted to Judaism, probably in the first few centuries AD by Jews from Persia. At that stage, the Persian Empire was home to the world’s largest Jewish communities.
According to research carried out by the geneticist, Dr Eran Elhaik of the University of Sheffield, over 90 per cent of Ashkenazic ancestors come from that converted partially Greek-originating ancient community in north-east Turkey.“

Europe’s largest economies, from 1961 to 2024. Interesting to see how some of the countries have improved or downgraded. Turkey, in particular, registered growth in the mid-sections of the list; East Germany/DDR was fairly high until the 1980s, when it fell like a stone. West Germany was high, and indeed at the top even before it absorbed the Eastern part in the 1990s, and has been pre-eminent since then. The Soviet Union as a whole was the largest economy overall for some time, but fell back in the 1980s, after which Russia started to climb, despite missing the other former Soviet republics, and has for some time been one of the five strongest economies (overall), in the top five. The UK has been in the top five consistently.
Of course, were that graphic to be expressed per capita rather than in gross terms, the situation would look very different.
Did you know there was a time when America was Art Deco, a blend of elegance and precision, marked by soaring towers and unshakable optimism?
Even after the Art Deco era, America was pre-eminent in terms of confident presentation at least, until the 1960s. Look, e.g., at a film such as North by Northwest (1959), with its ambience of, inter alia, Modern Movement architecture, as well as, later in the film, the influence of Frank Lloyd Wright.
I think the SRA have spotted a great opportunity for solicitors. If you're a solicitor, you find a reason to drop your client, come back on as an 'advisor', and do the work in any way, anyhow you like, not bound by any rules and regs. It encourages enterprise and initiative.
That refers to the egregiously poor, dishonest, and negligent behaviour exhibited by “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, who is now supposedly domiciled in Israel, though he seems to spend much of his time in the UK, either making money out of clients (who seem rather poorly served), or thinking up stunts to publicize “antisemitism” and at the same time make money out of possible “compensation” (as in the failed stunt at the Reginald D. Hunter show at the Edinburgh Fringe this year, when he cooked up a plot with his wife, Mandy Blumenthal, and Daily Mail junior scribbler Sabrina Miller). See
My own opinion is that, after the contrived Jew-Zionist storm that ensued after the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal reprimanded Lewis and fined him in 2018, the SRA is running a bit scared of the Jew-Zionist lobby and their characteristic contrived “claque” behaviour.

As for “KC”, I have noted before on the blog how it signifies not very much these days: in 1938, the later Lord Denning took silk, with three others, I believe, but in 2024 no less than one hundred silks (KCs) were appointed. “More will mean worse“, as Kingsley Amis said once in another context.

That idiot seriously thinks that Britain was “dominant“, internationally, about 24 years ago! What planet is he on? Britain was then not only within the trammels of the EU etc, but was the “poodle” of the then Bush jnr. administration in the United States.
It really is about time that the British people demanded a lot more from the “security and intelligence” bods, or just dumped them, or most of them.
What has weakened Britain has been a combination of the migration-invasion, together with the changing demographics of the UK, the sliding standards in all areas of society, cultural degeneration, and the domination of the UK’s government, political life, courts, policing and mass media, inter alia, by the Israel lobby. Oh, and the near-collapse and uselessness of our armed forces (etc).
But the CAA collection aren't honest. Plus they are a charity run by intel svcs which is illegal.
The “CAA” cabal, effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London, can be called (as blogged about in the past) a malicious little cabal. They threaten a lot, suborn police and CPS officials, are a damned nuisance, but accomplish little even by their own standards.
They should not, of course, be treated as a charity. For one thing, they are directly political; for another, the activity of the “CAA” exhibits no “public benefit”.
Myerson likes his drink a bit too much, according to eye witnesses in Leeds..
Is that true (about Myerson being a heavy drinker)? I have no idea, though if true it might partly explain his vituperative social media activity, which was at least part of the reason he was sacked (sub nom “resigned”) as a Recorder earlier in 2024. He certainly seems to stay up late, tweeting. Drinking too? As I say, I have no idea.

Though Powell would never have spelled “dependants” in the American fashion as above. No matter. The quotation is otherwise correct, and accurate in terms of Powell’s prediction. The only thing he got wrong was in the numbers. If as few as 50,000 non-Europeans were to invade the UK in 2024 or 2025, even Reform UK, even the rump of the NF or BNP, indeed even I (perhaps) would be sighing a sigh of relief.
At present well over a million a year are flooding in; about 1.4M. Only a couple of hundred thousand are leaving in the same time period, together with 50,000-100,000 Brits. That means over a million more inhabitants each year, which would be unsustainable even if they were all British, or white Northern European generally. However, a million more a year, of which many, indeed most, are useless, parasitic, criminal, or downright hostile to European culture and people, is indeed mad, just mad. It must lead to the breakdown of society sooner or later, probably sooner.
In fact, as the links clearly show, the father was “typical” in that, despite making millions out of commercial litigation, he supported not only thick-as-two-short-planks would-be black revolutionist Nelson Mandela but also the (other) terrorists (Africans and Jews) put on trial with Mandela in the Rivonia trial of 1963-64 (they intended to start a race war against white European people in South Africa). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivonia_Trial.
Incidentally, if you look at the tweets of Matthew Stadlen, which I have just been doing (for the first time, I think, certainly the first time for a number of years), you see that he is socio-politically confused. He welcomes the end of the Assad government in Syria, but lashes out at a tweet by Kelvin Mackenzie who makes the point that the 30,000 Syrians now in the UK as asylum-seekers or grantees can now go back.
Likewise, Stadlen praises the open spaces he and his dogs are able to enjoy in southern England, yet wants migrant-invaders to be allowed to arrive unimpeded, and to be housed (etc) at UK-taxpayer expense.
Meanwhile, “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer and his thick-as-two-short-planks supposed “deputy”, Angela Rayner, prepare to trash even more of England so that hutches for migrant-invaders can be built on a massive scale.
Again, Stadlen seems irritated by the decline of London into a city of crime, violence and anti-social behaviour, but fails (wilfully, I think) to note who is actually doing the vast majority of that…
Appreciate your answering but won't pretend I understand these particular distinctions on advising. I don't think it really addresses the issues you raised in your first tweet. Seems evasive to this layman.
“So, one of the things the SRA seem to be saying – and I think this comes from the very top, Juliet Oliver, general counsel – is; – a solicitor can continue to advise a former client where a conflict has arisen between that solicitor and client – so long as the solicitor only advises the client and does not ‘act’ by communicating with third parties or the court.” [James Wilson]
I mean I could guess what sort of response the SRA would get, and what sort of epitaphs would be used against them, if they reined in what I also regard as excessive generosity.

I disagree with Lucas’s analysis which says that the fall of the Syrian government weakens Russia. It weakens Russia in the Middle East, yes— but in the big scheme of things, that makes no difference.
Back to basics. When Stalin was Soviet leader, the Soviet Union had a very small navy, and one which was mainly confined to seas around the Soviet coastline. For Stalin, the geopolitical reality was that the Soviet Union’s power rested on its huge land-based armed forces, and on its huge geographical size, as well as a large population.
With the coming of the atomic age, Stalin’s scientists and spies ensured that the Soviet Union acquired the weapons at first possessed by only the USA and then the UK. At that time, all Soviet atomic and nuclear weapons were land-based, i.e. launched from aircraft themselves based in the Soviet Union and, in a few cases, satellite states.
Khrushchev, in his memoirs, disparages the senior naval officers pushing for a global Soviet naval presence. After Khrushchev’s fall from power, his successors did the opposite, creating a massive navy, which included ships and submarines capable of launching missiles including, eventually, nuclear ones.
That post-1960s global-profile strategy included supporting various factions in Africa, Asia, Latin America; that included the Middle East. Superpower rivalry.
A clear cost-benefit analysis, however, shows that, in the present, post-Soviet era, Russia actually does not need bases in Syria or elsewhere. Its strength lies, as before, in its geographic size, its still-large population and, crucially, its strategic rocket forces. All of those still exist. Moreover, the Russian strategic rocket forces are, it seems, at least as powerful, and as awesome, as those of NATO (i.e. USA); perhaps more so.
If Russia is forced by events to take a smaller part in the events of the Middle East, then all to the good. It can concentrate its forces and attention on the key areas of Russia itself, Ukraine and other areas of the “near-abroad”, and on advancing its most important forces, the strategic rocket and other nuclear forces.
The main thing now is to defeat the Kiev regime, and to install in Ukraine, at least in Eastern Ukraine, along the Black Sea coast, and in Kiev, either direct Russian rule or a pro-Russia Ukrainian government. It may be thought expedient, and historically consonant, to allow an independent Ukrainian government in Western Ukraine, and based on Lvov.
In respect of Central and Western Europe, Russia merely needs to obtain a modus vivendi with those states by encouraging the election or other installation of governments not hostile to Russia. Such governments need not be “pro-Russian”, or under the control of Russia; they need only be independent of the USA and, of course, free from the Jew-Zionist influence now so pervasive throughout the West.
Putin and his supporters and/or successors should be focussing on their nuclear arsenal, together with active measures aimed at helping political parties and individuals in Western and Central Europe that want a civilized rapprochement with the Russian state and people.

Do you really expect that lot to be anything other than rubbish?
Now it seems that Rachel Reeves, who could not even control her own personal (and interest-free) House of Commons credit card, is apparently going to “scrutinize every penny” of public spending. i.e. do spending cuts.

Oh well, “worse is better“, as Lenin said. Maybe there will be a “straw breaks camel’s back” moment. Starmer, Reeves etc will then, I hope, get what’s coming to them.
Well, political parties need funding. That Nick Candy person certainly has money, and knows others with money. Still, his interest in UK politics has been anything but narrow, to date:
“...The Times in March 2021…named Nick as the leader of fundraising for Shaun Bailey’s London mayoral campaign.[78] In June 2020, The Guardian also reported that Candy had donated £100,000 to the Conservative Party in March 2020.[79] In February 2024, Nick was reported by the The Independent to have expressed support for Keir Starmer‘s Labour Party.[80]“

I now have clear evidence that suggests Lewis attempted to mislead the court. It is a serious allegation. The sort of allegation that, if true, should end Lewis’ career. The big question is: how are Lewis and his firm going to respond? @MLewisLawyer@Patron_Law.”
[James Wilson].
Actually Wilson is wrong in one respect. That is not “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, as his Twitter account used to be called; that is Lewis as he was about 12 years ago. He is now physically and mentally in a very poor condition, can scarcely walk, and his faculties are not what they may have been a decade or more ago.
Lewis and his fellow Zionist Jews in at least two pro-Israel organizations have been making false and malicious accusations against me for a decade now. I have responded with the truth, on Twitter (until “they” had me expelled in 2018), and on the blog (since late 2016).
The above video clip shows Lewis and his wife, Mandy Blumenthal, after their attempted political stunt (and scam) at the Edinburgh Fringe, in August 2024, failed risibly.
As for the latest information said to be in the hands of James Wilson ending Lewis’s career, that career is already effectively at an end. Many would say that (such as it was) it ended a long time ago.
When Lewis was fined and censured by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal in 2018, his own Counsel asked the panel to be lenient in terms of fining him because his sole assets were his clothes, a private pension worth £70 a week, and a mobility scooter! Even his car, at the time (before his domicile changed from the UK to Israel), was provided to him free of charge by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), under its Motability scheme.
Actually, Lewis’s Counsel may have (I presume, inadvertently) misled that Tribunal, inasmuch as Lewis had, or so he once claimed, a flat in Eilat, Israel.
Lewis and the pack of Zionist Jews connected with him (eg those in the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”) have never sued me for anything I have written about them. They have preferred to make malicious and false complaints about me to the police etc.
Having said that, it is true that my present impecuniosity would make me a pretty poor target for any civil suit; I have even fewer assets than Lewis, if you include his flat in Israel which he seems to have concealed from the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal.
Even if they were to sue me and even if they were to succeed at trial (and they have not done so at any time in the past 12 years), their victory would be very very expensive for them. Hundreds of thousands of pounds expensive.
“My allegation is not that Lewis’ clients are vexatious, but that the evidence I have suggests he cannot be trusted not to attempt to mislead the court. If I am right, what does this mean for all the other cases in which Lewis has acted? What if there have been other attempts to mislead the court?“
Lewis has misled the Court and his own clients several, perhaps numerous, times, but so far has got away with it, at least to the extent of not having been struck off the solicitors’ roll. Part of his immunity from punishment has been the protective shield around him, consisting of other Jews, in the Press and other msm, not reporting negative things about Lewis, and indeed puffing him to a ridiculous extent, especially years ago.

Congratulations @narindertweets ! This is quite possibly the funniest and most humiliating display of your complete absence of intellectually acuity.
To be fair you make a great poster child for the mouth breathers on the left though 👏🏼
Idiots like that Narinder Kaur woman (of whom I think I had not previously heard) are actually paid to spout garbage on “British” TV. Know-nothings, emoting and gushing anti-white and/or racemixing propaganda.

The tactics of a police state, which is exactly what the dictatorship of the Jew Zelensky is.
Needless to say (again), few if any in Ukraine “volunteer” to be killed on the Kiev regime’s crumbling front lines. Few even comply with the draft. They have to be abducted, and intimidated by threats of prison or death.
As I blogged previously, in relation to both the USA election and Labour’s present situation in the UK.
The difference lies in the fact that the people of the UK had 14 years of inept “Conservative” misgovernment 2010-2024, and the voters wanted the Cons out, at almost any price.
Having said that, and as previously noted several times on the blog, out of every 20 eligible voters in the UK at GE 2024, and in rough figures, about 8 were so disenchanted with the whole political process, with society, and with the political choices available, that they voted with their feet (did not vote at all).
For me, the most significant figures would be the 8 out of 20 who did not vote, and the 2 that voted Reform UK.
Obviously, Labour, Starmer-Labour, has little real popular mandate, particularly in view of the fact that Labour’s “4 out of 20” or “4 out of 12” would have included those who, faced with a Lab-Con fight in many constituencies, voted Lab to do down the Cons; the same, in reverse, may also be true, though to a lesser extent; those who voted Con to prevent Lab from winning. Negative voting.
There is at present, or as yet, no sign of a real social-national party emerging in the UK.
I think that Matt Goodwin may be right, i.e. that Reform UK will emerge as the real opposition to Labour in the public mind.
Reform UK now has 5 MPs, though all are rather underwhelming. Reform should of course (were the electoral system not both illogical and unfair) have had about 93 MPs, not the mere 5 awarded to them under FPTP.
It is ridiculous that a party, Reform UK, can get 14.29% of the popular vote and end up with 5 MPs, and that another party, the LibDems, can be voted for by only 12.22%, yet end up with 72 MPs! That does offend the still quite strong sense of fairness and fair play in this country.
Come to that, Labour itself captured only 33.7% of the popular vote, not greatly more than double the vote of Reform UK, yet now has 411 MPs.
A pure proportional-voting system would have given Labour 219 MPs, the Conservative Party 154, Reform UK 93, LibDems 79, and Green Party 42.
In other words, under pure proportional voting, on GE 2024 vote figures, the UK would still be under a Labour Party government, but it would be a minority one.
In practice, 320 MPs give a UK government a Commons majority. Under the proportional-voting scenario, and in order to get over the line, Labour would have been required to compact with either the Conservative Party, or with Reform UK, or with both the LibDems and Greens. I suppose that that last choice would have been the most likely— Labour with LibDem and Green support.
Having said that, were there a fairer and more proportional voting system in the UK, voters would be able to cast their votes knowing that, unless they were to vote Monster Raving Loony Party or the like, their votes would almost certainly result in at least one MP of their preference getting elected. On GE 2024 figures, even George Galloway’s party, Workers’ Party, would have had 4 or 5 MPs in the Commons (0.73% of the popular vote, 210,194 actual votes).
There is little doubt in my mind that, were the UK voting system fairer, most UK voters would not be voting for the System or “legacy” parties. Not only would Reform UK surge forward, but a real social national party might be able to capture both the imagination and the votes of the British people. That, of course, is why System politicians want to retain the present voting set-up.

That is about Simon Myerson, Leeds-based barrister and one of the “CAA” and “UKLFI” Jew-Zionist crowd, who was sacked as a Recorder (p/t judge) several months ago as a consequence of his extremely unpleasant and persistent social media trolling.
According to Myerson, the terrible slaughter visited upon the people of Gaza is, “legally”, not “genocide”, presumably because not all Gazans have been killed or wounded (“only” 150,000+, i.e. about a tenth of the population), and because the Israelis at least claim not to intend eliminating all Gazans or other Palestinian Arabs from Israel/Palestine.
Well, could not a similar claim, mutatis mutandis, be made by Germany about the Europe-resident Jews of the early 1940s?
Not my area of law (when I had “areas of law”). In any case, my own view of the Gaza slaughter is not based on some “dancing on a pin” legal sophistry. I say, just look at what the Israelis have been doing, and what they continue to do. Whether it is called “genocide” or not is irrelevant, really.
I have noticed that some of the non-Jews (who are pro-Jew-Zionist or, maybe better said, pro-Israel), and some of those who are part-Jew (what the Reich termed Mischlingen) but Zionist, are actually more fanatical than many of those who are fully-Jewish. Strange. That phenomenon has been covered on the blog, on this very popular page: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/.

“You can but admire Simon Myerson’s sanctimoniousness? He’s had a pop at Alistair Campbell for not admitting mistakes and blaming someone else. Meanwhile, when the judge in my case said Myerson was wrong to call me the scum of the earth and accuse me of contributing to someone’s death, Myerson accused the judge of antisemitism and blamed me for not seeing the judge’s misconduct. Myerson has some front?“
There’s no question (mark) about it…
Simon Myerson is one of the weasels connected with the Israel-lobby organizations “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] and “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”]. He has been plotting behind the scenes for years. The “CAA” and “UKLFI” have been conspiring to have me arrested, charged, prosecuted, disbarred, removed from social media etc for at least a decade. So far not arrested, but certainly disbarred in 2016 (albeit wrongfully and unlawfully), expelled from Twitter in 2018, and charged/prosecuted/convicted/sentenced (see below).
As for Myerson, he was, fairly briefly, a Recorder (p/t judge) before being sacked (earlier in 2024) by reason of his vituperative tweets and other activities.
In the case of Wilson v. Newbon (deceased), Mendelsohn, and Cantor, which has been featured on the blog previously, Myerson’s evidence was, to be “diplomatic” about it, “not given any weight” by the learned trial judge. The same was true of the other Jews who gave “evidence” in that trial: Adam Cailler (newspaper scribbler), Joanne Bell (occupation, if any, unknown to me, but prolific on Twitter as “@jobellerina”); David Hirsh or Hirsch (minor academic specializing in “antisemitism”…); Nathan Comiskey (occupation, if any, unknown to me, but an active Jew-Zionist Twitter/X troll). There were a couple of other minor witnesses, their sworn testimony also discounted by the trial judge.
And Myerson did not have the good grace to apologise even when a judge in the High Court explained to him what he’d done. Myerson is a very strange man. pic.twitter.com/e7C2y8IhUN
Having dealt with Mark Lewis in my litigation for over three years, I have to say this is all of a piece. I’m reminded of the two times – that we know of – that Mark Lewis provided untrue information to the Court and then got found out. pic.twitter.com/AbOoFaiRk4
CASE UPDATE: in relation to my costs, one defendant now complains he was badly advised by his solicitor. The judge’s response is “That is not a factor I can properly determine or take into account.”
Since then, the surviving defendants (Newbon killed himself) have been ordered to pay the costs of Wilson but (as far as I know) have not fully complied. As for Lewis, he should have been struck off the solicitors’ roll years ago.
Lewis’ clients must bitterly regret taking the cases to trial.
I don’t know what Lewis’ advice to them was. It does seem from Pete Newbon’s messages that Lewis advised him he would win and Newbon trusted him. pic.twitter.com/Aeb7iqeMLR
It is clear that there is an occult (in either sense) aspect to the mad wish of Starmer and Macron (both in the pocket of the Israel lobby) to have war with Russia. It cannot be in the interest of Western Europe (any more than of Central and Eastern Europe) to become a smoking and irradiated ruin.
Macron and Starmer are marching to the beat of another drum, that of the secretive NWO/ZOG cabals.
…and “nationalist” political parties which are not, not in the slightest, “nationalist”, let alone social-national (look at the SNP, Plaid Cymru, UKIP, Reform UK etc).
Reform UK has glimmerings of “nationality” but is pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, and not even against having non-white candidates or MPs. This is farcical.
Talking point
[A mother hides her face as she puts four children up for sale, presumably by reason of poverty, Chicago, 1948. “The land of freedom“, it is claimed (I have to say that I never found it so…). I hope that the children were able to stay together at least, and that their lives became easier later]
So the Starmer/Rachel Reeves Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment has decided to spend (waste) £3 billion on the brutal and shambolic Jew-Zionist regime of Zelensky in Kiev, about 15x what they are going to spend in a doomed attempt to “tackle homelessness” in the UK?
I say “doomed” because, with the huge migration-invasion taking place, homelessness and the overall housing crisis in this country will soon get much much worse.
Facts: about 1,200,000 migrant-invaders are entering the UK annually. About 300,000 leave annually (as well as about 100,000 British people). That means that the population is increasing by at least 800,000 every single year.
Let us assume that 800,000 individuals require about 160,000 dwelling-places (5 per house/flat). At £200,000 per flat/house build-cost, that comes to £32 billion, very roughly 150x what Rachel Reeves has earmarked for “tackling homelessness”.
The migration invasion of the UK means that another 160,000 houses and flats, at a minimum, will be required every single year. Unless the invasion is stopped, and the invaders already here are removed.
Incidentally, Starmer-Labour’s £3 billion a year, due to go to “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime dictatorship), will probably not have to be paid for more than a couple of years. The regime in Kiev will collapse and be rolled over before very long, probably next year.
Incidentally, a very unpleasant individual, a former American junior officer, who was in the U.S. Army for a couple of years at the rank of lieutenant and is now working as an assistant professor at Northumbria University in the UK, was tasteless enough to find the killing of the squirrel funny: see below
Oh, and guess what is the academic specialism of that very nasty (read his tweets) “assistant professor”? The old “holocaust” stuff…
I have noticed before that those in the lower reaches of academia who specialize in “holocaust” “studies” and, risibly, often refer to themselves as “holocaust scholars” (!) tend to be very unpleasant individuals. It is as if their minds have become contaminated.
“BREAKING: A horrific night in Ramallah, in the West Bank. Hundreds of Israeli terrorist settlers launched a brutal attack on the city of Ramallah, setting fire to numerous Palestinian homes and vehicles. After setting Palestinian homes and cars on fire, they moved to the main road connecting Ramallah to other cities, where they targeted Palestinian cars passing by, injuring a woman by hurling stones at her vehicle.”
Even Jew-Zionists are now often appalled by the terror unleashed by Jews in Israel/Palestine. I have noticed that several times recently.
The elephant in the room, though, is that, at root, what those Jewish terrorists are doing is no more and no less what the Jews did in Palestine in and around 1948, when they founded their state on terror, ethnic cleansing, and murder.
A fat Indian woman, caught out being effectively an Israeli agent, is now Shadow Foreign Secretary.
Conservative Friends of Israel member, of course.
Purely a nominal appointment, though. Does anyone seriously expect Kemi Badenoch, a Nigerian woman, to become UK Prime Minister? The idea is actually ludicrous, even after “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.
Incidentally, I wonder whether those “scammers”, “Mark Lewis Lawyer” and his wife Mandy Blumenthal, are awaiting said storm in Israel/Palestine, or have they scuttled back, yet again, to the “antisemitic” Britain they despise and pretended to have fled?
One of the oddities of American “democracy” is that the plebs seriously believe that voting every 4 years for this or that candidate changes things. Really? Clinton, Obama, now Kamala Harris, arguably the least credible yet.
The plebs voting for her because she is a woman, because she is a non-white, because Taylor Swift and Oprah Winfrey endorse her.
Strange. Reminds me of the days, some 48 years ago (1976) when I would buy and read Black Flag, the journal of revolutionary anarchism, sometimes perusing it on the London Underground!
I could say a great deal more, but think that I had better not…
In fact, I read a good deal of “alternative” political literature back then, from Black Flag, NF News and League Review (the journal of the League of St. George, to which I then belonged) to (though far less frequently) Militant and similar literature.
