Talking point

I might have a problem accepting the exact parallel, but it is worth thinking about.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 3/10. My score was 7/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 3, and 6 (and I admit that my correct answer to question 8 was a semi-guess or educated guess).

Israel is doomed.

I have met relatively few, not so many, Ukrainians. I have met many Russians, of all sorts. I have to say that I much prefer the Russians I have met to the Ukrainians I have met.

Subjective, yes of course. Anecdotal too, were details to be considered. However, consider the cultural riches of Russia: composers, writers, painters, philosophers and other thinkers. Now consider the Ukrainian equivalent. Frankly, there is no comparison.

This is the sort of thing that happens when free speech is attacked via not only misguided or deliberately-totalitarian anti-free speech laws but also via policy determinations that have no basis in law whatever, as with “non-crime hate incidents”. “Hate crime” itself has no real basis in law; even less so has “non-crime hate” etc.

This is akin to, parallel to, what happened during the 2020-2022 “Covid” hysteria— government wishes, or preferences, labelled as “official guidance”, and all of that farrago confused with actual law, and then “enforced” arbitrarily by police woodentops who often had, and have, no idea either as to what is and what is not law, and who also often have an inflated idea of their own powers under law.

Talking about “Covid” and thinking back to the facemask loonies seen everywhere 2-3 years ago (though not so often now the msm propaganda hysteria has died down), I saw a typical one today in a supermarket: a middle-aged woman, very fat, hauling herself along slowly, while wearing her filthy, probably 3-years-old, cloth facemask, and pushing a large shopping trolley full of high-carb, high-fat foodstuffs.

Incidentally…

Much of what Goodwin says is correct. What weakens Goodwin, weakens Farage, weakens Reform UK, is that they are totally in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist-Israel lobby. Same goes for Toby Young, Allison Pearson, the “Free Speech Union” etc.

Moscow travelogue

Very different from when I was not far from there several times in 1993 (in Leninsky Prospekt, at the Academy of Sciences). On my second and shorter trip to Moscow, in 2007, I was in another area of the city.

Whatever may be said about Putin, he has made Moscow a very much better city than it was either in 2007 or (a fortiori) 1993, when it was, palpably, on the edge of chaos.

Sovietism had to fall, after the years of gradual decline and the uselessness of Gorbachev. It fell into near-chaos, it was ravaged and pillaged by finance-capitalist carpetbaggers (mostly Jews) from the West, and also by (mostly Jewish) homegrown predators, the so-called “oligarchs”. Gangsterism too.

Putin put an end to much of that, certainly to the outright gangsterism (in 1993, in the Yeltsin era, I was staying in the same hotel, the Ukraina, as the top-level Chechen gangsters), but there are still huge social inequalities (and, worse yet, inequities) in Russia.

I feel that Russia is still in one of its states of transition. The situation will become clearer later.

I am not a “hanger and flogger”, usually, far from it, but the sentences handed down for quite bad crimes of violence are often risibly lenient. The public are rightly concerned.

Well, Corbyn proves, once again, that he is a bit of a political joke.

At present, Reform UK is between 28% and 34% in the opinion polls, which might result in anything between 200 and 400 MPs at a general election. Corbyn’s (I think as yet unnamed) “real Labour” party has not been much tested in opinion polls but seems to be somewhere between 5% and 10%.

That might result in anything from a couple of MPs (inc. Corbyn himself) and (at peak) half a dozen or so MPs. The likelihood is that Corbyn’s new party will take a small amount of support from Reform, far more from official Labour, and so give Reform maybe (?) a dozen more MPs.

The new and totalitarian Online Harms Act is already resulting in footage of protests being censored. LibLabCon MPs supported its passage.

American version, but applicable more to the UK.

Ha ha. “What goes around comes around”

Jew-Zionist troublemakers have been trying to censor British people for decades. They have been pressuring commercial venues to cancel shows by “antisemitic” and/or anti-Israel speakers, comedians, singers etc for at least half a century in the UK. People such as David Icke, such as the Jewish anti-Zionist jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, and hundreds if not thousands of others.

“Slitherman” and his “Campaign Against Antisemitism” co-conspirators are prominent in that sort of activity, and have been for at least 11 years.

As a matter of fact, the “CAA” was behind the “cancelling” of satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz at the Edinburgh Fringe several years ago, and dishonest/negligent Jew-Zionist solicitor Mark Lewis, and his loudmouthed wife/carer, Mandy Blumenthal (aided and abetted by lying Daily Mail scribbler Sabrina Miller), were behind the attempted shutdown of black comedian Reginald D. Hunter last year (2024), also at the Edinburgh Fringe:

Now, the “CAA” pro-Israel propaganda outfit (engaged in “lawfare”— abuse of English law for pro-Jew-Zionist/Israel purposes) has taken the matter further, actually having the sheer gall to privately prosecute that black comedian on a criminal charge.

They’re Coming to Take Me Away, Ha Ha!

One of the most popular blog posts, published just over 6 years ago.

The links between many Jewish/Zionist individuals, pro-Israel-ism, “antifa” cretins, and mental instability, are very clear.

Very true. I also note that there is a strong Jewish involvement in most of the significant regional flashpoints: USA/NATO/EU-Russia, Ukraine (Kiev regime)-Russia, Israel-Gaza, Israel-Syria, Israel-Yemen.

[“Genocidal Zionists are incandescent with fury at the continued solidarity with Palestine shown by international lawyer and UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese. The latest tactic is to have the Donald Trump administration announce sanctions against her. “Albanese’s campaign of political and economic warfare against the United States and Israel will no longer be tolerated,” the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, posted on X. “We will always stand by our partners in their right to self-defense.” Rubio is one of the most pro-Zionist people ever to be appointed to the post of US Secretary of State and has received over a million dollars from Zionist lobby groups, “making him one of the top recipients of pro-Israeli donations”. The sanctions announcement coincided with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Washington, DC. Rubio and Netanyahu met on the same day that the sanctions were announced, which must suggest very close coordination. My latest: UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese faces US sanctions and smear campaigns by Zionist groups after exposing tech billionaires’ complicity in Israeli genocide in Gaza. https://presstv.ir/Detail/2025/07/26/751884/francesca-albanese-smeared-exposing-tech-billionaires-complicit-gaza-genocide“]

Marco Rubio— just another corrupt Cuban.

I am sure that the USA would not like the Russians doing similar but in, say, Northern Mexico. A provocation.

Yes, get all of our armed services doing something actually beneficial for this country, instead of backing up American policy idiocy and/or supporting the Israeli Jews.

[“Major General of the German Bundeswehr Christian Freuding stated in a widely circulated statement that Moscow is striving to achieve the capability to simultaneously launch 2,000 drones and emphasized that intercepting Shahed-type drones, costing 30,000–50,000 euros each, with Patriot surface-to-air missiles, costing over 5 million euros per unit, is not economically efficient. At the same time, the German general noted that the most effective way to counter Russia is deep retaliatory strikes — on Russian bases, airfields, aircraft, defense factories, and production facilities.“]

Exactly the sort of twit who might trigger a third massive war in Europe, which would leave Germany once again devastated, this time even worse than in the 1940s.

NATO seems to be run these days by know-nothing “chocolate soldiers”.

As Russian forces slowly advance across eastern Ukraine, the Kiev regime is in turmoil. They know they are losing.

More Israeli war crimes.

Well, after Israel is defeated, those brutal and sadistic Israeli Jew military personnel who have targeted women and children must be “tried” and —after a “fair trial”, of course— hanged, as happened after WW2 at Nuremberg and elsewhere. Fair’s fair, after all…

“Deport“? No…I think that a wall and a squad should be able to finish this.

Another one who needs a wall and a squad to finish him off.

I discussed Israel-lobby puppet and fake “conservative”, Iain Dale, on yesterday’s blog. Poses as a political commentator, but knows nothing, just nothing.

“A national embarrassment“? That might be one way to describe Ian Austin himself, a former expenses-cheat MP, nominally “Labour” but “elevated” to the degraded life peerage by “Boris”-idiot.

Austin, a complete puppet of the Israelis and the Jewish lobby, apparently tweeted (I have screenshots, apparently genuine, and blogged using them years ago, and have never been sued, nor even threatened with action, by Austin) to the effect that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized. Hard to believe that he is now in the House of Lords, but that old institution is now so degraded that it really should be shut down.

I blogged about the matter a few times nearly 4 years ago, e.g.

That view of Austin’s was then discussed, sympathetically (!), on Twitter/X, by another Israel-lobby person, the Daily Mail scribbler, Sabrina Miller, who was involved with a few of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] scams, such as the Mark Lewis/Mandy Blumenthal stunt against black comedian Reginald D. Hunter at the Edinburgh Fringe last year (2024).

In fact, Sabrina Miller went even further than Ian Austin. He “only” wanted to decriminalize bestiality pornography; she thinks that bestiality itself should be decriminalized! See: https://web.archive.org/web/20210608011817/https:/fleajournal.com/summer-2020/rough-why-we-should-legalise-bestiality-wait-hear-me-out-its-not-as-crazy-as-you-think

Sabrina Miller was also one of the Jewish students at Bristol University who contrived to get anti-Israel academic Dr. David Miller sacked from the University (unlawfully, as it turned out; he later recovered substantial damages at an employment tribunal), another “CAA” conspiracy.

Both Reginald D. Hunter and Dr. Miller are now facing a different form of “CAA” scam— private criminal prosecutions. I hope that they not only secure acquittals but also secure substantial costs, as would be their right.

Incidentally, Austin (now, ludicrously, “lord” Austin) took part in conspiratorial discussions over years, trying to have me prosecuted re. my one time Twitter account (it was closed down by Twitter in 2018, at the behest, once again, of the Jewish lobby). He even wrote to the then Director of Public Prosecutions about me, demanding that I be prosecuted. In 2018, apparently. “They” and their puppets hate free speech.

Poundshop police state (and, yes, “they” are behind much of it…)

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jul/17/armed-police-threatened-to-arrest-kent-protester-for-holding-palestinian-flag

Armed police threatened a peaceful protester with arrest under the Terrorism Act for holding a Palestinian flag and having signs saying “Free Gaza” and “Israel is committing genocide”, accusing her of supporting a proscribed organisation.

In the encounter, which she filmed, one officer told her: “Mentioning freedom of Gaza, Israel, genocide, all of that all come under proscribed groups, which are terror groups that have been dictated by the government.”

He went on to say that the phrase “Free Gaza” was “supportive of Palestine Action”, adding it was an offence “to express an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organisation, namely Palestine Action is an offence under section 12(1A) of the Terrorism Act”. The officer told her she had committed that offence.

Speaking to the Guardian, Murton said: “I don’t see how anything I was wearing, how anything I was displaying, anything I was saying, could be deemed as supportive of the proscribed group.

“It’s terrifying, I was standing there thinking, this is the most authority, authoritarian, dystopian experience I’ve had in this country, being told that I’m committing terrorist offences by two guys with firearms.”

[Guardian]

I myself have had encounters over the past decade or so with similar woodentops, police “officers” who both over-estimate their own lawful powers and, also, fail even to understand what the relevant law is.

My own encounters had nothing directly to do with Palestine but did have everything to do with malicious Jew-Zionists and Israel fanatics making up contrived and false allegations and complaints. “Slitherman”, of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, is one of the worst.

Rental property deposits

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/jul/20/rental-deposit-scheme-puts-millions-in-the-pockets-of-landlords

Having spent much of my adult life in rental properties (everything from single bedsit rooms to a 26-bedroom historic house occupied only by me, my wife, and one cat), I oppose rental deposits. Completely. I suggest that tenants simply be required to pay an increased rent instead. Somewhere in the region of £5 per week.

As usual, “they” want a great deal more than a pound of flesh…

About 20 months ago, Gazan militants attacked southern Israel. Many Israelis (mostly military-connected, some civilian) were killed, some abducted. Several hundred killed by the militants, with several hundred more killed via Israeli “kill everything” military responses. In round figures, about 1,000 (including Israelis killed by the Israelis themselves).

Since then, the Israeli Jews have killed or seriously wounded, or starved to death etc, or prevented from getting medicines, or even water, about 200,000 Gazans, mostly civilians, mostly women and children. The Israeli Jewish “soldiers” have deliberately killed, or sadistically maimed, small children lining up to get water and/or food for their families.

What can anyone say about an evil tribe that does that?

Also, what about the surreal disproportion? 200 to 1.

One thing we can do in the UK is to get rid of politicians in the pay of the Israel lobby, in particular Starmer-stein, “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, Liz Kendall, and Yvette Cooper, all members of Labour Friends of Israel.

There speaks a vocal member of the tribe which invaded Palestine, robbed or stole from the original inhabitants 97% of the land, and which has, in the past 20 months, killed or grievously injured 200,000 people in hugely-disproportionate retaliation for an attack which killed or injured a few hundred Jews.

…and his wife and children (or servants) will not be deliberately shot in the knees or head for the crime of bringing the bastard food and water. cf. Gaza…

Britain was influenced to its massive detriment by the Jew-Zionist lobby (which controlled Churchill). Result? War, devastation across Europe, including parts of the UK, huge loss of life, huge waste of money on war operations, loss of the Empire (part immediately, part over the following years and decades), a great increase in the influence of the Jew-Zionist lobby, and its postwar takeover of much of the Press, radio, TV, the economy etc. Also, the importation of at first hundreds, then thousands, then millions, of non-Europeans.

Life goes on…

Her manner may be hysterical, but her point is valid. Terrible cruelties are still being inflicted on the civilian population of Gaza by the uniformed military forces of the Israeli Jews who, over a century, certainly over the past 80 years, have stolen Palestine.

According to the most fanatical Jew-Zionist organizations in the UK, up to 96% of UK-resident Jews support Israel, and the majority of them even support what is being done in Gaza.

Why “always support doctors“? They vary much in their abilities and attitudes. As for the ridiculously high pay (£3,000 for one shift), in 2006 or 2007 I was briefed to represent a crap Dutch locum hospital doctor (and not a “consultant”) at Cambridge County Court. His NHS pay for a single shift had been over £600— and that was nearly 20 years ago, so you could certainly double or even triple that in today’s money. Incidentally, he had been working 6-7 days per week.

Of course, the fanatical Zionist Jews in London, Manchester, Brighton etc will scoff, and say that Gazan people are not suffering much at all. Meanwhile, the very same Jews whine, and claim to be afraid, if they happen to see (or pretend to have seen) a Swastika drawn in chalk on a pavement by children.

Soon Russia will be able to launch over 2,000 of such weapons daily. Such an air fleet will be unstoppable.

If I am not mistaken, “Shahed” means “Martyr” in Arabic.

Historical note

On 20 July 1944, military and civilian backstabbers, with varying motives, attempted to kill Adolf Hitler, and to take up the reins of state in the German Reich.

The plotters varied both in their motives and behaviour, some principled and, at least in their own minds, patriots of a sort, others unprincipled and/or out-and-out traitors. Some exhibited courage, others cowardice.

History is not black and white; it must be open to discussion, dissent, and revision, which is one reason why the quasi-mediaeval laws banning such revision in several EU and other countries (sub nom “holocaust” “denial” laws) are so wrong.

Today is only the 19th of July, but I may not publish a blog post tomorrow; we shall see.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week, a narrow victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 5/10; I scored 6/10, and did not know the answers to questions 1, 3, 5, and 10. Annoying that I got no. 5 wrong, having been there myself a couple of times.

Reform UK people are, inevitably, inexperienced in the procedures of central and local government. Is Rentoul then saying that the fake Labour and fake Conservative parties are so wonderfully efficient etc because of their long experience in government? If so, Rentoul should think again.

A useless box-ticker and “cover-ass” bureaucrat. Never give power to people of that sort (SIS/MI6 and MI5 please note).

I was just listening to that podcast:

Pathetic, listening to Michael Gove, the former MP and Cabinet minister (Israel puppet, Jewish-lobby puppet, expenses cheat etc) trying to bolster “Carpetbagger Kemi”. Gove is now Editor of the Spectator.

The contribution of Tim Shipman, political journalist, is more interesting, as is that of Luke Tryl, a pollster.

Incidentally, Gove’s choice as Con Party “rising star” is one Katie Lam [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katie_Lam], a Jewish or half-Jewish woman aged 33, who, prior to election as MP in 2024, had been both a Goldman Sachs banker and a public relations person.

Of course, in Tel Aviv “they” will be laughing. For now…

It must have taught the Iranian authorities a lesson, but not, I think, the lesson that the Americans thought that they were teaching…

One of the biggest problems Australia has always had, especially since the retirement of Sir Robert Menzies [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Menzies] has been the very poor quality of its senior (and other) politicians.

Menzies, above all, supported suitable European immigration to Australia after WW2, but opposed non-European immigration, a wise dual-aspect policy that was changed by and after Gough Whitlam’s government of the 1970s. Disastrous.

Not that, in retrospect, Menzies himself always made the right decisions. Even Menzies made very bad strategic errors, really.

Seems that “the reduction of the Gaza ghetto” is not going so well for the “Israelis”.

Gaza today; Tel Aviv, Ra’anana, and Eilat tomorrow.

So…will the man who was (from what one sees on Twitter/X) run over by a police van, deliberately, be charged with criminal damage to a police van by having been run over?

I recall a prison escape by bank robbers in the 1970s, in Leicestershire. When recaptured, one of the robbers was seen to have had the s**t kicked out of him, his face black and blue. Believe it or not, he was then charged with “criminal damage to a police boot” (using his face or head)! Talk about adding insult to injury.

I have no idea whether that ludicrous charge was later dropped. Maybe. Things like that happened sometimes in the days when the police were the charging authorities, i.e. before the Crown Prosecution Service was invented (1986).

Incidentally, my own (and only) contact with the underwhelming Essex Police was in 2017, when the usual malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” Jew-Zionist(s) made a typically false/malicious complaint against me. It went nowhere, of course (though was inconvenient…so the bastards owe me one…not the only one, though).

Talking about the “CAA” swine…

Ha ha! Mark Lewis is basically a fraudster, in lay terms. Negligent. Dishonest. Hopeless.

Iain Dale, another complete puppet of the Israel lobby/Jewish lobby. Quelle surprise— he is one of the System “conservatives” (he was selected as a Con Party candidate in 2024, but chickened-out) who think it OK that the UK is swamped by backward people(s) from all over the world.

Another “conservative” in hock to the Jewish lobby (LBC itself is owned by Jewish interests), who (in his case) lives in a luxury farmhouse in East Anglia, has a comfortable home in London as well, and makes hundreds of thousands of pounds per year. Yes, his own life will not be impacted by the migration invasion. He therefore prefers to be a traitor to the British people and their future.

Dale’s discussion there reminded me of the “Mrs Duffy moment” that sank Gordon Brown at the 2010 General Election. Both Brown and Dale refuse to see what is right in front of all our noses. Who, in that radio discussion, is the “dinosaur“? Dale, I think. Either dinosaur or cliche ostrich, head in the sand.

Does Dale have any idea about what is happening in the country, the UK, on which he purports to comment?

Incidentally, the appalling behaviour of many Afghan men (especially) is not confined to the Taliban; indeed, some of the Taliban are better than some of the others.

Oh…

That last tweet might be a bit challenging for Dale…

https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/25326157.carer-rachel-goodman-sentenced-weymouth-court-theft/

“THE heartbroken family of a man with Alzheimer’s say they feel ‘betrayed’ after a woman they employed to care for him stole ‘treasured’ and ‘irreplaceable’ items from the family home.

Rachel Goodman, who has a similar previous conviction, was said to have ‘exploited the family’s vulnerability in the most callous way possible’ after she admitted stealing sentimental items.

The defendant avoided immediate jail time when she was sentenced at Weymouth Magistrates Court.

Goodman, 54, was employed by Louise Woollam to care for her husband Richard, who suffers from Alzheimer’s, at their home in Shillingstone, near Blandford.

A court heard how the incident had such an impact on the family that Mr Woollam, a former RAF pilot, had to be placed in a care home.

The court heard Goodman stole items such as a diamond engagement ring which belonged to Mrs Woollam’s mother, earrings brought for Mrs Woollam by her husband, sunglasses, a watch, a snorkel, bedding, a throw, money – and a 250-year-old family heirloom.

Goodman, of Eastland Road, Yeovil, has 13 previous convictions, which includes conning an elderly woman out of £3,500 and for which she received a suspended sentence.

A victim impact statement read out in court by prosecutor, Christina Norgan, on behalf of Mrs Woollam, said: “My trust and security has been completely shattered by Rachel Goodman. Alzheimer’s is a cruel disease which has already taken so much from us.

“She exploited our vulnerability in the most callous way possible. I could not go to work as I could not trust another carer in my home. I feel betrayed and broken-hearted.”

Kenny Sharp, mitigating, said: “Maximum credit for an early guilty plea. This is a person who is struggling to come to terms with the reality of what she did. Immediate custody would have a significant impact on her two children.

The defendant was handed a 12-month custodial sentence suspended for two years. She must also complete 12 Rehabilitation Activity Requirement days and 200 hours of unpaid work.

Israeli-Jew psychopath cowards. Still, “what goes around comes around“. Seems that some never learn.

Even the better section of the Israeli msm admits it.

Those Israeli soldiers are members of the same group that whine constantly about alleged atrocities supposedly committed against their ancestors in the 1930s and 1940s, nearly a century ago (and “they” often make up all sorts of tales to embellish the same).

Literary note

There is a mediaeval legend, called “the legend of Ahasuerus (or Ahasverus)”, about a king who is unable to accept the divinity of Jesus Christ, as a result of which he is condemned to reincarnate always in the same race-type, unable to progress.

Reminiscences: temps perdu, and thoughts about mortality

When one is well over 60, as I now am (68; b. 1956), thoughts may naturally turn to mortality, life and death, and questions larger than the everyday concerns of life. That may be so when one notices that many people one has known in life are now defunct.

Some of the people I have known, or have merely met briefly or peripherally in the past, are still alive; many, however, are not. Some of those who are no longer alive have died from various natural causes (and are too numerous to list), others expired from unnatural causes (such as a Nigerian princess I knew, shot dead in Lagos in the late 1990s) or from causes or reasons unknown (such as the ex-husband of a lady I knew in the 1980s, which ex-husband apparently drowned in the Thames at London). A few, friends of friends rather than people I knew well, sadly died via suicide many years ago.

These thoughts came again to mind yesterday when I noticed information online to the effect that a former American colleague, a major-league American lawyer called Tim Scrantom, died some time ago, in 2021, apparently of a brain tumour. He was diagnosed in April 2021, and died 6 months later.

[Tim Scrantom, 1956-2025]

Tim Scrantom was a couple of months younger than me, a fact which sharpens my reminiscence.

I met Scrantom after a headhunter in New York suggested to him and his two main colleagues, in 2001, that I might suit his niche law firm (based in Charleston, South Carolina). I was telephoned in Turkey, where I was then resident, and we arranged to meet in London at one of my usual haunts, the Churchill Bar at the Hotel Russell in Russell Square.

I drove back to England via Greece, Bulgaria, Romania (the latter two then not EU states, and very ramshackle), Hungary (excellent country), Austria, Germany (calling in at Berchtesgaden), Luxembourg, and Belgium.

The upshot was that Scrantom and I became colleagues, he based mostly at Charleston (the office was at East Bay Street, in the conservation zone of the city), I mostly in London, though we both visited various offshore jurisdictions, once or twice in tandem, as when we went to Liechtenstein one day (well, I did; Scrantom had left his passport at the Mayfair Hotel, and only discovered that fact when we met at Heathrow, prior to flying to Zurich…).

Scrantom was a genial host. He invited my wife and me to dinner in Charleston in August or early September 2001 and, on a later solo visit, I visited his home on Sullivan’s Island, by Charleston, where he lived with his then wife (I believe they divorced later) and young daughter.

Scrantom, though a graduate from American law schools, an attorney in several states, and a professor of law as well, was also a barrister of Gray’s Inn in London. I was a barrister of Lincoln’s Inn, though many years later (2016) wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred at the instigation of a pack of malicious and politically-motivated Jew-Zionists.

Scrantom, incidentally, was a modest fellow, very much a “Southern gentleman”, born in Georgia and from a wealthy background. I liked him. I never knew (until yesterday) about some of his earlier adventures, such as sailing around the Bahamas on his yacht, exploring the Himalayas, or visiting edgy places in Cambodia and elsewhere in South-East Asia, though he did tell me that he knew several of the people portrayed in the famous book and film Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_in_the_Garden_of_Good_and_Evil_(film)], the events of which occurred in Savannah, Georgia, where Scrantom’s family members were largely based.

In September 2001, I was with Scrantom in a taxi in the Strand, London, when his wife called to say that New York was under attack. We interrupted our journey (to the Berkeley Square area of Mayfair) to get out at a Dixons store to look at the TV screens.

I well remember him later fuming that Iraq “must have” been behind the attack on the World Trade Center (that was the neo-con and American msm line at the time, of course) and that “Israel has the right idea” (i.e. bomb the hell out…). Well, he was wrong, of course, and we disagreed about that. Like most Americans, and despite his intelligence and education, he was influenced by the pro-Israel propaganda so pervasive in the msm in the USA (though his main colleague, Ron, a hard-driving former USAF officer, was more alive to the menace of Jew-Zionism, and he was, as one might expect, also pro-USA to the hilt).

Scrantom, even when I knew him, was a multimillionaire, and later become a major player in the field of “litigation insurance”, once called “champerty” and historically not lawful in most jurisdictions (including England): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champerty_and_maintenance; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champerty_and_maintenance#England_and_Wales. Now, it is considered more acceptable.

I do not much like the concept (and Jew-Zionists in England use “litigation insurance” to pursue pro-Israel “lawfare”), so maybe it is just as well that our professional connection was mainly severed in 2002, when I decided to return to the ordinary practising Bar in England. I then moved to a large country house in Cornwall, and was based professionally at Exeter.

As already mentioned, I liked Tim (though not his then wife, to be frank; I only met her once), though I should say that he and his two main colleagues had no idea at all about how to run a law firm.

Life is short, something few if any really understand when in their twenties or thirties. We all have to try to accomplish something, not in a careerist sense, but for the future of the Earth, while in any particular incarnation.

That idiot, a (?) 30-something wannabee or occasional scribbler, tweeted something about me quite a while ago, I think in 2023 or 2024. He seems to be very pro-Jew-Zionist and pro-Israel, and his msm scribblings (it seems as part of teams, not sole bylines) were 6-11 years ago. A few more recent scribblings have been for online outlets (of which few have ever heard). https://muckrack.com/colin-cortbus/articles.

Apparently, that Cortbus person was once a UKIP activist (when a student, about 12-14 years ago).

I notice that that individual has only about 2,500 Twitter/X followers. When a pack of Jews had me expelled from Twitter in 2018, I had 3,000 followers (and that had been artificially lowered); by now I would have had tens of thousands of Twitter followers. Ah well…so much for “free speech” in this country…

Incidentally, I was unaware about that event in Zagreb. Looks as though parts of Europe are waking up.

…but look at that dishonest little Pakistani, Sajid Javid. Wrong once again. Remember his denial of the link between the migration invasion of tens of millions into the UK, and housing shortages?

Make that nearer to 10-15M, though…(plus births).

Starmer-stein is a total idiot. No idea about how to run the UK. Clueless. I predicted it, about 3-4 years ago, on the blog.

Scotland is even worse than England. Some of the idiots up there even claim to welcome being invaded by backward hordes!

The Labour Party in Scotland is actually headed by a Pakistani; so was (how ludicrous can you get?) the Scottish “National” Party, until recently.

As for that rapist, he will be out in 5-6 months. Shocking. The woman victim must be devastated and feel totally unprotected and unavenged.

Economic sanctions rarely work. When I was in Rhodesia in 1977, the roads outside the capital, Salisbury (now Harare) were empty, but that was not because of sanctions (fuel rationing only lasted 1965-1971). New cars were often seen in the city, though none were of British manufacture; French, I think Spanish, or other. Sanctions had limited effect— things such as books, Scotch whisky etc. Nothing really major. Tobacco, oranges, chrome etc were still exported (often under false flags).

Compare Putin to pathetic and dishonest Starmer-stein, or that truly ridiculous “diversity hire”, Lammy.

Not so much “wild geese” as Muscovy ducks…(only joking).

Unsurprising. Why should the peoples of Central and Western Europe (and USA) risk nuclear war for the sake of Zelensky’s brutal, shambolic, and very corrupt cabal? Most Ukrainian men are themselves trying to avoid serving in the Kiev-regime forces.

[“Israeli publication Haaretz reported that the US military used 93 THAAD interceptors in 11 days to defend Israel, revising previous cost estimates from $800 million to about $1.2 billion. With an annual production rate of about 36-48 THAAD interceptors, the US used up nearly two years’ worth of the missiles during the war.“]

Horrible. I hope they suffer for committing such crimes against the natural world. Barbarians.

Strange to think that, when I drove to the end of the almost-empty Karpas Peninsula in Northern Cyprus in early 2000, I was only 60 miles from Latakia in Syria. 60 miles, but a different world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karpas_Peninsula.

[“Few people noticed why exactly Israel launched a war against Iran on June 13. Here are three hidden reasons: 1. Just days earlier, the country was rocked by its largest pedophile scandal in history—one involving several high-ranking politicians. 2. Before the war, Iran hacked three terabytes of files from Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, which is known for collecting compromising information on global politicians. 3. Israeli PM Netanyahu risked losing power due to the unpopular proposal to draft ultra-Orthodox Jews into the Israeli military“]

I wonder what there is in that about Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Prince Andrew, Dershowitz, Clinton, Trump etc.

If MOSSAD or AMAN had that stuff, does the SVR now also have it, or some of it? About Trump, for example?

“The Consolation of Philosophy”?

Allison Pearson is a remarkably stupid woman.

I presume that Lewis is hiding out in Israel. He has or had a flat in Eilat, a fact that he concealed from the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal when he was found guilty on several charges in 2018. Indeed, his Counsel told the Tribunal that Lewis should have his fine greatly reduced because Lewis’s only assets were his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 a week.

Ecce the supposed “top defamation lawyer”!

See also:

Mark Lewis is little better than a confidence trickster.

Incidentally, Lewis was an abusive husband when married briefly (one year) to the Z-list “celebrity” and, briefly, Sky News newsreader, Caroline Feraday (amusingly, best-known for having been sacked by text message by BBC local radio about 15 years ago).

Not that I care at all about Lewis’s abusive behaviour to his then wife, who now lives in a “nowheresville” in the outer regions of Los Angeles (see my blog posts).

The Feraday woman joined with Lewis in attacking me viciously on Twitter (about my opposition to the Jewish fake WW2 “reparations” scam); in fact she initiated the attacks, with which Lewis then joined in. Until then (many years ago, about 2012 or so), I had never heard of the bastard, or her.

Mark Lewis was (maybe still is) a “patron” of that evil and squalid organization, the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, working with its main characters, such as Gideon Falter (a proven liar and, arguably, perjurer) and the Jew-Zionist Israel fanatic, posing as “Head of Investigations and Enforcement”, whom we can call “Slitherman”.

An example below of Lewis’s abusive social media activity, which (after several years) got him into trouble (though not via me— unlike the Jew-Zionist troublemakers, I do not waste time making endless complaints to police etc):

(in fact, in 2018, it was revealed that Lewis constantly abused people on Twitter etc, even a young Jewish boy; Lewis blamed his medications for his abusive behaviour…).

Ecce Allison Pearson’s solicitor (apparently)…

My own Twitter account, as explained, was deleted by Twitter itself in 2018 at the instigation of effectively the same pack of Jews, while Caroline Feraday deleted her original Twitter account a year or two ago, mainly because it was too embarrassing for her in various ways. She has another Twitter/X account now (with only 115 “followers”, despite she herself following 166 Twitter/X accounts).

Caroline Feraday’s now-deleted Twitter account had, at one time, tens of thousands of “followers”, all fake, all bought by her and by “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, who himself bought nearly 80,000 in an attempt to seem important, popular etc. Legal business news outlets even commented, cautiously, about the dishonest fakery of Lewis and his then wife.

Caroline Feraday now works for local public radio station KCLU in Ventura County, California, a subsidized radio station (National Public Radio network) with (putting it jokingly) about half a dozen listeners.

A few years ago, Caroline Feraday was publicly begging on GoFundMe, in an attempt to raise a mere USD $5,000. Sic transit gloria mundi…(and “celebrity”)…

From last month; I missed that one.

Cor, ‘ee’s well ‘ard!” (when arresting a woman of 83 doing basically nothing; the police are, shall we say, “not so hard” when confronting, if they ever do, predators and scavengers, such as those usually found living in caravans…).

Pathetic.

Ha. Soon “we shall all be (called) terrorists”…

I have seen the odd thing over the years from Rod Liddle with which I have agreed; quite a lot with which I disagreed. Also, my impression (I have never met him) is that he is rather an unpleasant person.

I could suggest something, but would not want some Jew-Zionist troublemaker making yet another contrived complaint to the police “service” about me.

The Israeli Jews are so brave, when firing at unarmed and defenceless civilians…

Better tap the American taxpayer again…

I am surprised that Iran has (apparently) not thought of using 1980s-style Soviet-engineered atomic “suitcase bombs” in both the USA and Israel. The original ones were powerful enough to destroy anything within a radius of about 1-2 miles of the point of detonation.

Quite dispersed. At least 6 or 7 target zones. I have seen tweets suggesting nearly over 500 actual points of impact.

Remember Clausewitz. Concentration of forces. Schwerpunkt.

People generally are pretty tired of that whole hypocrisy of government saying that cuts to disability and other State benefits are somehow being “kind” or “caring”. Not so. At best, callous and aimed at “saving money” (which will then be really wasted, elsewhere). At worst, a refined form of cruelty and indeed sadism. Ian Dunce Duncan Smith, a fraud, an expenses cheat, and a total deadhead, was one of the first to do this.

In the end, some form of Basic Income, even if very modest, must be the way forward. End the bureaucratic nonsense of jumping through hoops, snooping, “assessments” etc.

Starmer-stein— no ideals, no ideas, no decency, no honesty. Just a freeloading, careerist, pro-Jewish lobby, pro-Israel, little bastard. Utterly clueless and incompetent as well.

I too agree. As I blogged at the time of the Brize Norton incursion, had the MOD or RAF had even one dozy security guard or policeman, unarmed but awake, on duty, the protesters would have been scared off or, even if not scared off, easily detained or arrested within a few minutes, once back-up had been summoned.

Only the Jew-Zionist lobby (effectively saying what the Israeli Embassy says) is calling Palestine Action “terrorist”, when in fact they are just protesters utilizing direct action. If they damage anything, then charge them with criminal damage, not “terrorism”. That’s just ridiculous.

Fixing it? Starmer-stein’s little cabal of pro-Israel freeloaders is doing even worse, incredibly, than the brainless “Conservatives” during 2010-2024.

Mark Lewis, very far from the hotshot lawyer persona he has been “cosplaying” for many years, backed by other Jews in the mass media etc. A lawyer at best semi-competent, really quite incompetent, indeed professionally negligent, and utterly dishonest. In fact, just another Jewish fraud. Also, a malicious maker and facilitator of false complaints to police etc.

Ah. Interesting. Looks as though the numbers of alleged victims have been edited down. I thought that the Jews/Israelis were still claiming that about 1,000, or even 1,500, had been killed. Seems that (as happened at the “reconstructed” site of the early 1940s Auschwitz camp, where a “4 million victims” sign was officially altered to about a quarter of that figure), the 1,500 supposedly killed by Palestinian Arabs in southern Israel in 2023 is now 378, at least at the festival itself. The other hundreds of victims, if they existed at all, were presumably killed by the brutal Israeli armed forces themselves as “collateral damage”.

None of that, though, explains how the Israeli Jews (and those supporting them in the UK and elsewhere) think that the deaths of 378 Jews etc by a particular paramilitary/political group somehow justifies the killing by Israeli Jewish forces of anything up to 200,000 Palestinian Arabs, mostly civilian, mostly women and children (about half of the victims being under 18 years of age). Retaliation? Revenge? Blood lust? Cruelty and sadism?

The disproportion is incredible.

Bombing, white phosphorus bombing, flamethrower attacks, drone attacks, shooting, grenade attacks, cutting off of medical supplies, cutting off of food, cutting off of water, shooting people lining up for food and water.

“They” are still whining about (alleged) German actions 80-95 years ago, yet look at what is happening now in Gaza, the West Bank, Iran etc!

Of course, the Israeli Jewish game-plan seems to be to kill as many Gazans as possible, and to incarcerate the rest in concentration camps (under some such name as “safe areas”), so that Jews can colonize Gaza again.

I missed that ridiculous jamboree in Venice. Thankfully.

Bezos reminds me a bit of that Steve Jobs character [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs], another one who thought he was a kind of “master of the Universe”, but who died aged 56 of pancreatic cancer which first manifested itself when Jobs was 48.

Bottom line is “you can’t take it with you“…

Make that 2050, at latest…

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

A ceasefire merely permits Israel to catch its breath and to resupply.

[“Israel awakened a sleeping giant when it attacked Iran and this KEY stat proves it “The full magnitude” of Iran’s defense power “has yet to reveal itself,” with JUST A FRACTION of its potential revealed in the recent war with Israel, IRGC deputy commander for coordination Mohammad-Reza Naghdi said. “Less than five percent of our country’s defensive capacity was actually activated” in counterstrikes, the brigadier general revealed. “And by ‘activated’ I do not mean ‘spent’. It merely means that five percent of our defense units became engaged with the enemy.“]

Words. They may be true, they may not be true. We shall see.

That is one quite small area of a large city.

Monte Carlo— “a sunny place for shady people“, as Somerset Maugham remarked.

Too wide, arguably (see the full list). Central Tel Aviv, the Ben-Gurion Airport, and (not targeted, apparently) Dimona would be the prime targets.

Starmer-stein and his Cabinet and whips can hardly, at least credibly, threaten Labour rebels with deselection etc, when all present polling is suggesting that, come the next general election, only about 100-150 Labour MPs out of the present 403 will retain their seats anyway.

https://twitter.com/Timesofgaza/status/1939373211596030171

Another Israeli Jewish war crime.

Seems that even Labour MP-drones, some of them, have some residual decency, and are appalled by the flagrant indecency of the Israeli Jews killing mothers and babies, and the UK Government torturing and effectively killing the sick and disabled.

Or is all of that just a convenient way of dumping Starmer-stein and “Rachel from Accounts and Customer Relations” Reeves?

Surely, the American attack, preceded by the Israeli attacks, has sent a message to Teheran, and the message is “strike Israel and the USA in a way both will find absolutely devastating“. That would not be the intended message, of course, but I think that that is the message Teheran actually received…The Iranian response may not come for years but when it does, it will be something really game-changing.

Only one thing will stop “them”.

Diary Blog, 22 June 2025, including thoughts about London, and about the “entitled” attitude of the Americans

Morning music

London. England. UK.

“All these things happened to me in London today I paid nearly £30 for a train ticket to take me into London from a town just 30 miles away —on a Saturday

The first person I sat next to, I think from India, decided to have a FaceTime conversation with his friend on speakerphone so we all had to listen to it

The train was late by 40 minutes due to unexplained “signalling issues”. It was also filthy.

I paid nearly £8 for a pint

I offered a woman my seat on the tube without realising she was with a man who intervened and said “no man”. He was not from the UK. I think he took my gesture as an insult.

I was asked for money by homeless people 3 times in one day

I noticed several people who are paid to give information to taxpayers and tourists over the tannoy on the London Tube cannot speak English properly

A cabbie told me “London is dead most nights”, unless you are the global high net worth set or top 1%

Restaurants are visibly struggling and often hideously overpriced

I had dinner in a neighbourhood where the average rent is £3,663 per month while half of all local social housing has gone to people who were not even born in the UK

I was constantly aware I should not get my phone out on the street as 80,000 were stolen last year

I also read on the way back while checking that stat that there were 90,000 shoplifting offences in London last year, up 54%

My train back —delayed—was suddenly changed at the last minute with all passengers on board.

They were told it would no longer be stopping at all stops.

I bought a tin of instant coffee on the way home and it had a security tag on it

Maybe I’m in a bad mood and perhaps it’s amusing to think how somebody of my political outlook is “triggered” but to me there is a deeper point here

London is over —it’s so over

It’s a city in visible decline with deteriorating standards and no real sense of identity or belonging

Going in and out of our capital city is a truly miserable experience

Infrastructure is falling apart, as is the social contract

I’ve been coming in and out of London since 1981

I simply cannot remember a time when it’s been this visibly dire and when so many things just do not work as they should”

[Matt Goodwin]

That rather echoes a blog post I published almost exactly three years ago:

Of course, the migrant-invaders see nothing the matter with London as it now is, because where they come from is worse yet. They are from Bombay and Bangalore, the slums of teeming South Asian and East Asian cities, the ramshackle neighbourhoods of Lagos or Accra, or wherever.

Look at London’s Mayor, Sadiq Khan, a Muslim apostate carpetbagger in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist lobby. He himself is part of the problem, but only part.

I am very glad that I have not lived in London since 1998 (though I did live in Higher Denham, just outside London, for 6 months in 2001-2002, and worked at that time as international lawyer in London, both at Gray’s Inn, where I was leaseholder of a set of chambers, and just off Berkeley Square in Mayfair).

Ironically, my later disbarment (2016) was pronounced (by a superannuated former circuit judge chairing a 5-member panel) in the very same building where I had sat as notional “Head of Chambers” (it was actually an offshore set-up dealing with Russia, former Soviet Union, Caribbean, Brazil etc, not ordinary English Bar work), and leaseholder.

If I were to live in London today, I should probably have my Rolex watches stolen. In fact, I no longer have them anyway (sold many years ago for reasons of financial pressure, i.e. I needed the money!).

Even were I to hit the Euromillions lottery, and so be able to live in a Nash terrace at Regent’s Park, I doubt that I should bother.

“…Either way, suddenly alone in the centre of a city I no longer recognised, I couldn’t have felt more vulnerable.

I resolved to find a police officer, but despite walking up and down some of London’s busiest central areas – down Jermyn Street, along Piccadilly and over to Leicester Square – I saw none.

West End Central police station, which would have been a ten-minute walk away, had closed permanently in 2021 after being sold to developers for a reported £50 million. 

No wonder opportunistic crimes like these are on the rise when bobbies have all but abandoned their beats.

Giving up, I headed home, walking the three miles to my flat in Kensington because I had no cards with which to pay for a bus or taxi. 

Dazed and shattered, and with the pain in my leg only growing, I took a breather in Hyde Park to register the crime on my phone using the Met’s online form.

The next day I received a call to say that officers from Hammersmith police station would come to take a statement from me at 8am the following morning. 

But at the time they were due to arrive, they rang to say they couldn’t come because they couldn’t find an available police car.

Really? The station is barely a half-hour walk away. Disappointed, I had to make do with discussing it over the phone with the officer instead. Such muggings were, he said, ‘rife’ in the capital at the moment.

He asked if I wanted to take it any further and, honestly, I didn’t. The pointlessness of reporting a crime so long after the event is infuriating – it’s a tick-box exercise, nothing more. 

The chances of the police catching a gang with my vague description of their clothes and ethnicity must be almost nil.

Ultimately, pursuing a report would mean me enduring a bureaucratic hurdle – filling in more forms online, having more phone calls. And for what?

All of this could have been avoided if there were more police on our streets, which would serve as a deterrent to these thugs. It’s futile having a police force at all in London if they can’t adequately react to something like this.

[Daily Mail]

Actually, 90% or more of “all this” could also be avoided if London were a white English city…

Of course, what will happen is that the existing System parties will falter and fail, but Reform UK itself will become a System party in the end, if it looks like taking power. You can already see signs of that— the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby influence, the non-European candidates etc.

All the same, this is a great thing. The Overton Window is shifting, visibly. After Reform, there may emerge, may have to emerge, a genuinely social-national party or movement. However, the “Parliamentary road” is a limited option, because the English/British will soon be a minority in the UK.

As I said 9 years ago, a squawking parrot in a golden cage, guarded by a phalanx of Zionist Jews…

Trump had the chance to take American in a new and better, and quasi-isolationist, direction. Now, the Deep State, largely under Jew/Zionist/Israeli control, has made Trump just the latest figurehead puppet for “intervention”, following Bush snr, Clinton, Bush jnr, “ex-tra-ord-in-ary” Obama (the one-time “great white black mixed-race hope”), and Biden.

I was also well ahead of Matt Goodwin on that…

(from over 6 years ago, and citing Daily Telegraph articles ).

Will Russia strike Israel? If so, where? Dimona? Ben-Gurion Airport? I doubt that that will happen, but it just might, now that the USA dog has been wagged (again) by the Jewish tail.

She forgot to add that Tugendhat is himself quarter-Jew: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Tugendhat#Early_life_and_education; also, a member of Conservative Friends of Israel.

The United States, even more than Israel, has an entitled “I can bomb you but don’t you bomb me” attitude. I well recall the scalded reaction in the USA when the World Trade Center attack happened in 2001. That only happened to other people (who, many Americans think, are scarcely people at all)…

I think that that attitude goes back at least to the Second World War, when the U.S. bombing campaign in Europe laid waste huge areas not only of Germany but of several other countries as well. At that time, there was no danger at all of any country retaliating against the U.S. mainland or its population. A feeling of invulnerability.

Farage is almost pathologically pro-Jewish lobby, and pro-Israel. That is my biggest black mark for Reform UK, and supports the theory that Reform is being lined-up to take over when the main System parties finally fall, which cannot be far off.

Ecce the Nigerian woman who will soon (next general election) be “leader” of a Conservative Party with as few as 10 MPs. I imagine, though, that her MPs will dump her by the end of this year.

The premium for being slavishly pro-Israel is not high when the leaders of “Labour” and Reform UK, maybe the LibDems too, are no different.

If so, it might have been better to say that the base was totally wiped out!

Were I the Iranian decision-maker, I should make that airport a really major priority target, along with the Dimona nuclear base. After that, central Tel Aviv.

[“The takeoff locations of the aircraft involved in the attack on nuclear facilities have been identified. The US must expect a regrettable reaction that exceeds its calculations. Having several US bases in the region is not a strength, but a vulnerability. Attacks on Israel will continue.”]

Hotels much the same. I was due to speak back in 1978 at the Clarendon Court Hotel, Little Venice. Jews connected with the pathetic Searchlight mag, now defunct, contacted the hotel management (the same kind of malicious harassment now undertaken by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” cabal). As a result, the Clarendon cancelled, and I had to pay out for a coach to bus people who arrived there to my new venue, a large room with a bar over a pub somewhere near the river, not far from Dolphin Square.

As to the Clarendon Court Hotel, which had once been a fairly good place (foreign Test cricket teams playing at quite-nearby Lord’s would stay there in the 1970s), the last time I saw it, around 1990 or so, it was full of…yes… “asylum-seekers”, East European Gypsies etc. Yes, that’s right…35 years ago! That crap did not start in 2024, or 2010, or even 1997.

Incidentally, the Clarendon once had an amusing notice outside, relating to its spa studio: “The Body Feminine— Entrance at Rear“!

Ah. Just looked it up. The building has evidently been extensively remodelled, and is selling as multi-million-pound apartments, like the rest of London (even the old SIS/MI6 building, Century House, at 100 Westminster Bridge Road, near Lambeth North underground, is now “luxury” apartments).

I also just saw this 1992 report about that hotel: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/231279.stm: the hotel was forced to pay £6,000 apiece —maybe £20,000 each in 2025 money— to some bloody Afghans and others “forced to endure cockroaches” (etc) there… Cockroaches. Well, that would certainly never have happened back in Afghanistan…

You’re also displaying Islamophobia whilst constantly bleating about anti-semitism. I’m no leftie, I was a Tory until I had enough of the crazy far-right lean and a succession of appalling leaders. I’m a Zionist, my 22 yo father helped liberate Belsen and still talked of it on his death-bed.

You bring it entirely on yourselves. You actively goad & insult people on here. You insult the very people who believe in Israel and have always supported it just not when it goes mental which is very regularly under Netanyahu. Lots of Israelis hate him too. I have no time for the ghastly Hamas, Mullah, Houthi and Hezbollah fans who go on marches but dear god the Jews who back Trump & Netanyahu are a loud & aggressive disgrace. And when Eylon Levy talks of the Blitz or Dunkirk – it’s an insult.

You bombed Iran, you got bombed back, you seem to want all of us to be bombed, bugger off!“]

Ha. Brava!

I had thought that lady tweeter must be at least partly-Jewish. Seems that I was probably mistaken in thinking so.

She is talking, inter alia, about the kind of aggressive and malicious Zionist Jews prominent on Twitter etc, such as those connected with the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, Jews such as Gideon Falter, “Slitherman”, and “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, among other liars.

There I do disagree. The “British” Jews who are those, or most of those, being repatriated, are probably hard-core Zionists anyway. I have already blogged that, if they love Israel so much, let them hunker down with a pack of matzo biscuits, an Uzi, and a Desert Eagle, and fight. Why should they be rescued at all? If they are going to be, why should the British taxpayers subsidize them? Most probably have plenty of money, too.

Horrific, and on a Biblical scale. The (Israeli) Jews have done that, and others, in the USA, UK, France etc, support what the Israeli government has done and what it continues to do.

Lewis poses, increasingly without credibility, as an effective solicitor, but he has been making false accusations to police etc for *at least* 13 years: see

and

Others of the same type, such as Simon Myerson (Jew barrister who had to be removed as part-time judge because of his hate-filled tweets etc), Daily Star scribbler Adam Cailler, and others, had their sworn testimony disbelieved by a senior judge at Wilson’s successful libel trial. All members or supporters of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, and all liars and quite possibly perjurers.

Incidentally, the sworn testimony of the “CAA” Chairman, Gideon Falter, was also disbelieved by another judge and at another trial, years ago, the successful appeal of Foreign Office diplomat Rowan Laxton.

I have had, as many readers will know, my own problems over the past 12 years and arising from lying accusations made by Lewis, “Slitherman”, and some old Jewish “CAA” crones from North London.

No wonder one of the Ten Commandments brought down by Moses was “Thou shalt not bear false witness“— it is what “they” do.

[“BREAKING: We’re on The Telegraph’s homepage tonight—and we’re front-page news in tomorrow’s print edition! FSU General Secretary Lord Young has written to the Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, raising serious concerns about how the Prevent programme is now treating mainstream conservative views as signs of potential extremism. Yes, you read that correctly. In training materials completed by thousands of public sector workers, the Home Office lists “cultural nationalism” as a form of terrorist ideology. That label now applies to anyone who believes mass immigration is threatening British values or social cohesion. Once flagged, individuals—often just teenagers—can have their names and political views logged in police and safeguarding databases for decades, with devastating consequences for jobs, university places, and future prospects. In his letter, Lord Young calls on Ms Cooper to suspend the use of “cultural nationalism” in Prevent guidance, conduct an urgent audit of the programme, and establish a way for wrongly flagged individuals to discover and delete their data. If you’ve got “very Brexity” Douglas Murray books in your house, a strong interest in national policy, and believe immigration is changing this country, the Home Office now says you’re an extremist. This has got to stop.”]

While I agree with the above, the “Free Speech Union” and Toby Young have damaged their own “brand” by failing to stand up for the free speech rights of those persecuted by the Jew-Zionist lobby and particularly the malicious and dishonest “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”. Those conspired against have included me, Alison Chabloz, Jez Turner, “Sven Longshanks” (James Allchurch), Sam Melia etc, as well as better-known people and organizations such as David Icke, Dr. David Miller, and al-Jazeera TV.

I wrote about Prevent and its poundshop police state nonsense years ago:

[“The govt’s “Prevent” programme claims being concerned about mass immigration is “terrorist ideology” They want to silence the truth tellers 1 in 100 UK Muslims (40,000) are on MI5’s terror watchlist That’s larger than Hamas’s forces on 7 Oct and ISIS’s army in Iraq in 2014, when it captured Mosul. The number of jihadis on the UK terror watchlist is already half the size of the full-time British Army – and growing. Due to the growth of the Muslim population, it could be larger than the British Army by 2050. Don’t let Prevent deflect attention from the real issue: 90% of the people on the terror watchlist are Muslim. The “far right” is a molehill next to the Islamist mountain. The majority of the British public have justifiable concerns about the importation of vast numbers of culturally incompatible peoples. To malign them – to malign us – in this way is beneath contempt.”]

Time to shut down poundshop Stasi “Prevent”, and to sack its army of wannabee MI5 recruits with degrees from Lancaster University, superannuated ex-cops, ex-army corporals, and other odds and sods. Get them digging canals or stacking shelves.

It seems that YouGov did not offer an “I don’t give a monkey’s flying ****” option.

Just look at them…

[“Posts like this—“Russia’s GDP equals Spain and Portugal’s combined”—may sound punchy and attract clicks but they’re deeply misleading. And it’s precisely this kind of simplistic analysis that’s helped fuel decades of failed Western policy on Russia.

Measured by raw nominal GDP, Russia ranks lower—true. But nominal GDP is influenced by exchange rates, which are volatile and often manipulated or distorted by sanctions, capital controls, or energy prices. The more meaningful metric is Purchasing Power Parity (PPP), which adjusts for local prices and living costs. By PPP, Russia’s GDP in 2024 was over $6.91 trillion, making it the 4th largest economy in the world (IMF). That’s ahead of Japan and Germany. By contrast: — Spain (PPP): $2.74 trillion — Portugal (PPP): $0.51 trillion — Combined: $3.25 trillion Russia’s real economy is more than double the size of Spain + Portugal in purchasing power terms. And that’s just in official figures. And then there’s how GDP is compiled. Western countries like Spain include estimates for drug sales, prostitution, and other illegal activity in their GDP—since Eurostat guidelines permit it. Russia, on the other hand, excludes a massive shadow economy. From informal labour to grey-market services, under-the-table wages, and barter—none of this is properly reflected in official Russian GDP stats. So the picture is skewed. You have one economy padded with estimated sex work and drug dealing, and another where entire sectors—especially in rural and small business life—go uncounted. Tax dodging is practically a sport in vast swathes of Russia. No one is saying Russia is an economic superpower. But it’s also not Spain + Portugal. It’s a globally significant economy with vast resources, strategic industries, and real industrial capacity. Underestimating that is both lazy and dangerous.“]

Quite.

In particular, you cannot judge the state’s military power by its economic level, or by the standards of living of that state’s population. Stalin said, after Hiroshima, “we must have those weapons, even if we have to eat grass“, a statement echoed in reality almost literally by North Korea in recent decades.

Interesting. Naturally, it is often assumed that Jews would not betray the Israeli state, as the only actually Jewish state, but there are precedents, as when Soviet Intelligence ran a number of agents inside Israel, some of which were uncovered and punished.

Can that be true? What about Israel’s nuclear weapons?

Money from EU and UK (and US) taxpayers, huge amounts too, and completely wasted.

If it is true that, in the UK alone, there are 40,000 seriously and possibly actively pro-terror Islamists, imagine what would happen if even 10% of those, 4,000 of the bastards, were to commit such acts simultaneously. Alarming idea.

The Jew-Zionists of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] etc are a pack of liars and perjurers. They have made innumerable false statements about me to police and others, apparently without ever having been prosecuted for attempted perversion of the course of justice, or even simply wasting police time.

The so-called “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” of the “CAA”, one “Slitherman” (as I call it), has personally made false and unlawful allegations against me in the past. See below for the facts, and the wider picture. Why have the police never prosecuted him? Why is he even now seen on the “almost no-one watches” Talk TV, GB News, Sky TV etc? He was exposed in open court (by the CAA’s own bungling lawyer) as a serial online troll and harasser of (mainly) women. Evil.

Lewis has been involved in trying to “get me” numerous times over the past 13 years, but I am still here, the blog is still being published, while Lewis has suffered quite a few blows of fate in the same period, and I think is now looking down the barrel of bad news.

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

Danse macabre

Truly, the wicked flourish like the green bay tree…

Mark Lewis, Lawyer

God, just look at that bunch of…

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

More “irony” from Rosen there.

Graham is one of the worst puppets of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby in the Senate (though amid many others). One has to ask why the Israel puppets in the USA, in the UK, in France etc, always support the Kiev regime…

Even some Jews now find the direction of travel of the Jew-Zionist ethnostate, Israel, distasteful.

After all, how can you pose as a “victim” of supposedly “evil” “Nazis” (80, 90, 100 years ago), and claim present-day privileges and immunities on the back of that, when you are turning cities full of people into charred holes in the ground, bombing hospitals, when you are burning, shooting, bombing and starving civilian populations, and cutting off food, medical supplies, even water? When you have killed 200,000 people, mostly women and children, in only 18 months?

Also, when your Jewish state is itself now creating new long-term concentration camps for Palestinian Arabs…

Also, when the remaining cities containing Palestinian Arabs are being ethnically cleansed, and the Arabs subject to mob intimidation…

More about vicious pro-Israel social media troll Pete Newbon

Many readers will know something about Pete Newbon, the social media troll who committed suicide during the civil trial in which he was one of three defendants, Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon, and Cantor.

Newbon had neglected to tell his wife about his activities and about his (then upcoming) defeat in that case, which meant that she would have been unaware that their family home was on the line, largely because Newbon and the other defendants had been misled, either deliberately or negligently, by the Jew-Zionist solicitors and Counsel in the case, in particular the egregious self-publicist, Israel-based Jewish solicitor, Mark Lewis (re Lewis, see blog posts passim via the blog’s search box).

The political site Skwawkbox has now published more material about Newbon:

The world is not without kind people” [Russian proverb].

Yet another Labour Friends of Israel MP who has “never had a job” (a non-political job) (excepting some work for Facebook). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Simons#Early_life_and_education.

Hopefully, the next general election will see him chucked out.

Is he one of those “Labour” MPs with some kind of CIA or US Embassy (London) connection? I do not know.

You do not have to be a Labour Party supporter to see that Labour Friends of Israel member Liz Kendall is a disgrace.

Britain has been invaded and is being occupied: “legal” immigrants (supposed spouses, fiancees, students, work-visa holders, then illegal immigrants on “small boats etc”, then births to those non-white women already in the UK, and also to stupid white/British women impregnated by blacks).

Again, Reform in the top two places of an opinion poll. I think that all opinion polls for the past 6-9 months have had Reform either top or second.

The “Conservatives” have no chance after their 14 years of appalling misgovernment 2010-2024, especially now that their idiot MPs and ordinary members have (for the second time) chosen to be led by a non-white, non-British “leader”.

On the Opinium figures, the Commons would have both Reform and Labour on 228 MPs, Cons with 97, and LibDems with 43 (taking LibDems and Green as each having a 10% vote-share). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

As with so many other recent polls, a Reform/Con government would be the only possibility, on those numbers, or a minority Reform government.

Very different figures, but same basic story. On those numbers, though, Reform UK would have about 325 MPs, one short of an absolute majority, but enough for a very thin working majority, without the need for support.

On the numbers there, Labour would have 154 MPs, Cons 58, and LibDems 45. If that were to happen, the Conservative Party would be utterly irrelevant, and likely to decline to near-zero over time.

Not sure whether that likely Con terminal decline would be the best result, or whether the best consequence of such an electoral result would be that Labour would have only 154 MPs instead of 403 (as now). A loss of 249 MPs. 249 upset System drones (plus 63 equally-upset Con ex-MPs; wonderful again…).

Hard to say how many tanks Russia now has. Somewhere between 2,000 and 10,000. The Kiev regime has somewhere between 500 and 1,500.

It is not impossible to imagine a direct assault on Kiev either this year or in 2026.
