Nearly every threatened libel action relating to Palestine circulating around Labour Party 2015-2019, had a reference to Mr Lewis. pic.twitter.com/8qukKw1SJ2
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.]
Patron Law still claim Lewis is the UK’s foremost media, libel and privacy lawyer.
The reality is that Lewis is clueless and a danger to his clients.

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…
[Bishop Rock Lighthouse, Scilly Isles. I visited the Rock on a small boat once, aged 9 or maybe just 10, in September 1966. The sea-state was a dead calm that day, though. The lighthouse is now automated, like all others in the UK; in 1966, there were still three lighthouse-keepers; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_Rock]
That idiot, Brian Coleman, says in another tweet (by his co-pannelist, Tessa Dunlop), that he “used to be important” and is now “a has-been“. The second point may be so, the first only if you think that having been, long ago, a councillor in the Borough of Barnet (North London) and/or a member of the London Assembly, is “important“.
Wikipedia does mention Coleman’s membership of Conservative Friends of Israel, and his numerous instances of intemperate and violent behaviour, for at least one of which he was convicted of assault (though given a remarkably lenient sentence, on the facts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Coleman#Conviction_for_assault).
Coleman was also a pretty bad expenses-blodger.
One wonders why the Jeremy Vine Show is interested in the comments of such people. His claim that Farage is and Reform UK is a “sideshow” shows Coleman’s complete lack of political nous. He says that he is old enough to remember the SDP, and how, after riding high in opinion polls, it imploded after less than a year in 1981.
He seems to think that the voters will somehow go back to the “Conservatives”. Really? I doubt it.
Yes, I too recall the SDP [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Democratic_Party_(UK)], I being nearly 5 years older than Coleman. The reasons for its failure were several, but to my mind the main one was that its policies were pretty much the same as those (much of) the Labour Party, the Liberal Party, and even the non-Thatcherite part of the Conservative Party.
Another point is that the SDP (rumps of which struggled on until 1988) was led by people who were the opposite of charismatic.
Leaving aside policy, the key difference between the SDP in 1981 and Reform UK in 2025, 44 years later, is the surrounding socio-political background. While the UK in 1981 was suffering from mass immigration, and on a large scale, the scale of that immigration was still minor compared to that of the past 25 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_immigration_to_the_United_Kingdom.
In fact, even that alarming graph does not tell the true or full story. For one thing, the pre-1945 figures would include those white/English/British people born in parts of the British Empire; also those born in various parts of mainland Europe.
Again, the later parts of that graph, showing a steep rise, are yet not entirely showing the true racial/ethnic picture, because huge numbers of blacks, browns, Chinese etc (or half so) are now being born here in the UK to parents either recent immigrants or themselves born here, and those millions are not “foreign born” in that sense.
Not even just migration-invasion; also migration-occupation.
Another point is that living standards, though suffering a blip in the early 1980s recession, were not steadily declining, as is now the case for most people. Also, society had not collapsed in other ways in 1981, or the later 1980s, contrary to what is now the case. The monarchy, armed forces, educational standards, police, courts etc were still broadly as they had been for decades, indeed to a fairly large extent as they had been since late-Victorian times. Look now!
As to Parliament itself, it may have been flawed in 1981, but still worked more or less as it had done for the preceding century. MPs had not become total “grifters” and expenses-blodgers, because that system was not yet in place to the extent it later was.
Also, MPs were mostly either from trade union or teaching/academic backgrounds (Labour) or armed forces/landowning/business backgrounds (Conservative). A different ethos. For most of them, politics was a field they had come into from somewhere else. The present-day MPs are, many of them along the lines of: Oxford/Cambridge PPE or similar degree, political adviser, a bit of fake charity work maybe, maybe a bit of local councillor activity, then MP. Result— rubbish.
In a word, the voters are very angry with the state of everything in this country. They know Farage is a bit of a snake-oil salesman, they know Reform UK MPs are unpolished, inexperienced etc (and have not had the training of many System MPs). The voters, however, are voting in anger against the System parties rather than for Reform as such. They know that Reform is merely the best of a bad bunch. They are voting for change, too, not for specific Reform policies. Indeed, in supporting remigration/repatriation etc, the voters are well ahead of Reform UK, well ahead of Farage, well ahead of Matt Goodwin.
In other words, that Coleman character has completely misread the situation.

Here, I part company with Goodwin. After all, M&S has just posted a pre-tax profit of over £300M for the past financial year, and the other big supermarkets are in a similarly-fortunate position.

When it comes to small shopkeepers, it is different. The shoplifting upsurge really is hurting them.
The problem with making “minor” thefts punishable by harsh penalties is that it blurs the distinction between minor and major crimes, as in early 19thC England: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_punishment_in_the_United_Kingdom#Background. The adage was “hanged for a penny, hanged for a pound” (not completely accurate— the threshold triggering the death penalty was in fact, until 1832, not one penny but 12 pence, i.e. one shilling).
Incidentally, shoplifting did attract the death penalty 200 years ago, if the value of the goods stolen was high enough.
NEW POST. Nigel Farage has grasped the new winning formula in politics. He is appealing to the Alarm Clock Class in this country, the workers who keep Britain moving, by speaking to their populist left positions on the economy and their strong right-wing views on culture. This is…

This is neither the time nor the place to delve deeply into the Gay Paree scene, to which only Noel Coward could do justice. My YouTube channel, on the other hand, allows me to penetrate more deeply into the hard partying of Emmanuel Macron and his circle of elite and very handsome gays, including Gabriel Attal, whom he appointed as Prime Minister and who now heads up his (political) party in the National Assembly, and the renowned counter tenor Philippe Jaroussky.

I should think so. For Germany to supply the Kiev regime with ever-more-powerful weapons might eventually result in Germany again becoming a battlefield, or even a charred and irradiated ruin.
Well, this week a clear victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He claims 5.5/10, whereas I scored 8/10. I did not know the answers to questions 8 and 10.
“Benjamin Netanyahu was accused of slander and pursuing a war without end after he claimed the leaders of France, Canada and the UK were stoking antisemitism and siding with Hamas by demanding he end the two-month blockade of food and aid into Gaza.“
“In a post on X on Thursday evening, the Israeli prime minister said Hamas wanted to “destroy the Jewish state” and “annihilate the Jewish people”.
“I could never understand how this simple truth evades the leaders of France, Britain, Canada and others,” Netanyahu said.
“I say to President Macron, Prime Minister Carney and Prime Minister Starmer, when mass murderers, rapists, baby killers and kidnappers thank you, you’re on the wrong side of justice.”
[Guardian]
So now even Starmer-stein and Macron, both egregious puppets of the worldwide Jew-Zionist lobby and Israel, arecalled “antisemitic“! Carney, too, a former Goldman Sachs and central banker who is himself believed to be part-Jew (though his background is mainly Irish).
Is this the peak of such “gaslighting”? We in the UK have seen, for years now, the raucous Jew-Zionist lobby saying that almost anything not slavishly pro-Israel is “antisemitic”. The malicious and dishonest so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] has been in the forefront of it all, making false accusations about people to police and professional regulators, and spreading its poisonous propaganda on Sky News, GB News, the “does anyone actually watch?” Talk TV online outlet, and even the BBC.
Apart from that, imagine the lack of self-knowledge it takes for Netanyahu to accuse the admittedly unpleasant Hamas organization of being “mass murderers“, “baby killers” etc when the Hamas attack on Israel in late 2023 killed some thousand or so Jews and others (though many were in fact killed by the brutal Israeli forces themselves when the latter were killing Hamas operatives, and the Israeli victims seem to have “got in the way”) but when the Israeli retaliation in Gaza has killed anywhere between 150,000 and 200,000, mostly civilians rather than Hamas personnel.
In other words, in terms of numbers, the Israeli forces have killed between 150 and 200 Gazans for every one Israeli Jew killed during the 2023 incursion by Hamas personnel into southern Israel.
The Gazan population has been bombed, firebombed, attacked with white phosphorus, attacked with flamethrowers, shot at from the air and ground, rolled over by Israeli tanks, and killed also by an embargo on medical supplies and even food and water.
About half, more than half, of the victims of the Israeli forces in Gaza have been women and children, a huge proportion of the latter having been under the age of 12 (so not teenage fighters, of which Hamas seems to have few anyway); many of the victims have been babies, indeed. Netanyahu should look in the mirror, if he can bear it.
Incidentally, most of the original Israeli victims of the 2023 incursion were adults, and most were members of the Israeli armed forces, police, or other security orgs.
As previously blogged, if the Hamas operatives of 2023 were in part monstrous, indeed if the Palestinian Arabs generally are sometimes monstrous, then they have been made monstrous, and made so mainly by the actions and behaviour of Israel, and its supporters and facilitators elsewhere. Jews across the world raise money for Israel, including money specifically raised for the Israeli armed forces.
Are we coming to the point at which the “Western” world will (start to) throw off the shroud of (((control))) over Western economies, legal professions, politicians, newspapers, TV, radio etc, which (((control))) has become ever-heavier over the last 150 years, and particularly since the disastrous end of the Second World War in 1945?
Israel itself was founded on a foundation of mass murder and ethnic cleansing. The karma taken on by Israel and its population (and its supporters in the West) is very heavy, and gets heavier daily.
“Labour blocks proposal for ‘swift bricks’ in all new homes
MPs had previously backed Conservative amendment to ask developers to provide hollow bricks for endangered birds
Providing every new home with at least one “swift brick” to help endangered cavity-nesting birds has been rejected by Labour at the committee stage of its increasingly controversial planning bill.
The amendment to the bill to ask every developer to provide a £35 hollow brick for swifts, house martins, sparrows and starlings, which was tabled by Labour MP Barry Gardiner, has been rejected by the Labour-dominated committee.
Despite the Labour party having supported the swift brick amendment when it was tabled on Conservative government legislation in 2023, housing minister, Matthew Pennycook, told the House of Commons committee: “We are not convinced that legislating to mandate the use of specific wildlife features is the right approach, whether that is done through building regulations or a freestanding legal requirement.“
A new petition calling for swift bricks to be made mandatory for new homes has rapidly reached 80,000 signatures in recent days, two years after activist Hannah Bourne-Taylor won a parliamentary debate to help the rapidly declining migratory birds after 109,896 voters signed a government petition.
Bourne-Taylor said there appeared to be “no logic” to the government’s opposition to swift bricks when they precisely meet its ambition of creating win-wins for the economy and nature.
“They are going to be building millions of bricks into walls. I don’t understand why there’s such a problem with a brick with a hole in it. It seems ludicrous,” she said. “Why say your new legislation is a win-win for new homes and the environment and exclude the only measure that is a true win-win?
“They are tone-deaf. This is such a tiny thing they could do, but it’s brewing such a distrust and sense of betrayal among the people who voted for them.”
[Guardian]
Such an easy way in which to help those birds and the environment generally, and now fake Labour has ruined it.
The Labour Party is now fake, evil, and deserving of being stamped into the ground.
As for that Pennycook bastard, he seems to be a typical Labour MP of 2025, a “beggar on horseback”, i.e. a careerist from a very modest background, determined to climb the greasy pole, with neither ideas nor ideals, and completely unprincipled.
By reason of the repression of free speech in this country, I cannot say what I might hope will happen to most System MPs.

"Only 15 per cent of Brits, according to Opinium, last week, think the number of immigrants in Britain is ‘about right’, while close to 70 per cent say it’s ‘too high’."https://t.co/9Ab0mUOqge
Ironic. The System politicians and msm recently lined up to mention the possibility that Britain might have been invaded in 1940, yet pretended not to notice a real invasion that is happening right under their noses, and literally under the noses of the spectators of that Dunkirk tribute show.
As to why Britain was never actually under real threat of invasion in 1940, there were numerous reasons. First of all, Hitler wanted to rule much of the world in alliance with the British Empire; he did not want war with Britain; Britain, i.e. Neville Chamberlain’s Cabinet, declared war on Germany in 1939 and, after mid-1940, his successor, Churchill, was unwilling to consider an armistice.
Hitler was weighing what became the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. He did not wan t a two-front war.
Hitler allowed most of the British Army soldiers in the Dunkirk area to escape (my own maternal grandfather one of them). Hitler refused to allow the Luftwaffe and tank columns to destroy that army, the remnants of the British Expeditionary Force or BEF. German ground forces were halted outside Dunkirk by Hitler’s own order (Fuhrerbefehl).
Secondly, the Germans never had enough barge and ship capacity to ferry an army of sufficient size across the Channel.
Thirdly, the Luftwaffe could not guarantee air superiority; neither could the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine much defend any forces ferried across.
Reverting to today’s real invasion, it continues, day after day, and nothing of importance is being done to stop, or even slow, the flow.
If only Britain had been in loose alliance with the Reich. We would have been, today, the rulers of much of the world, and that world would have been a better and happier place by reason of it. The usual evil (((influence))) prevented it from happening. Instead, we sit on our small and beleaguered island, invaded daily by trash from all over the world, we are individually poorer with every passing day and, with every passing day, our society falls apart, more and more.
I wonder how long it will be before there is little that is worthwhile left. At the age of 68, I may not see the ultimate depths of the degradation of Britain, thank God, and I am doing what little I presently can, in my present situation, to avoid the catastrophe, but see around me a society running around like a headless chicken, scarcely aware that it is already, in effect, dead, or at least mortally wounded.
I may, by Grace of God, be able to do more. We shall see. That is a matter of Fate. If the existing society cannot be saved, it may be that seeds can be planted in the rotting corruption, seeds which may germinate at a later time in history.

As one might expect from scribbler Allison Pearson, she has missed at least one point. It is actually irrelevant whether someone’s views are considered “racist” (an almost-meaningless term).
My views now, and when I was wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred by reason of a conspiracy by two connected packs of Jews (“UK Lawyers for Israel” and the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) in 2016 ( 8 years after I ceased to practise at the Bar), are little if at all different from when I was in ordinary Bar practice in England (1992-1996 and 2002-2008), I being overseas most of the intervening time and for several years thereafter.
When I was in Bar practice before the courts and tribunals of England (mostly the County Courts and the High Court, though at first also in the magistrates’ courts, various tribunals and —occasionally— the Crown Courts), I had lay clients (and instructing solicitors) who were from many parts of the world, most living in the UK. Many species of blacks and browns, inter alia. I always did my best for all of them. That is or was the ethos of the Bar.
It is also irrelevant whether or not Lucy Connolly is or is not labelled as “racist” by this idiot or that. The fact is that her sentence was harsh, and the circumstances of her original plea and the facts of her case amount, overall, to a miscarriage of justice, notwithstanding her (frankly, mistaken) original guilty plea.
Lucy Connolly is quite evidently being used, politically, by the Starmer-stein regime, as something akin to the dead crows etc that gamekeepers used to impale on spikes as some kind of supposed warning-off to others. Katie Hopkins has vlogged to the same effect, and I had already blogged to that same effect.
The same thing happened to Tony Martin, the farmer who was at first convicted, quite wrongly, of having murdered a “gypsy” (Irish tinker/”traveller”) after a group of those predators and scavengers attacked Martin’s isolated farmhouse: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Martin_(farmer).
Even after his murder conviction was quashed, being replaced by a manslaughter conviction and a 5-year term (his 10-year sentence for shooting and wounding another nuisance in the same incident was also reduced, the 10 years being replaced by a —concurrent— 3-year term), Martin was refused early release, and served 3 years. The woke-idiot probation and parole swine were judging him for his views, at root.
Had I been Prime Minister, I should have made sure that Martin was never charged (and don’t think that that is not possible). Indeed, he should have been commended for his brave actions, and given money from public funds.
Late thought
There is, shall we say, a certain group or bloc in this world that the world would be better without…
There may be several, in fact, but I am thinking of one in particular.
I have been puzzling for some time regarding the ideology, if any, of GB News. Pseudo-nationalist, obviously largely “controlled opposition”, willing to help move the “Overton Window” re immigration, the failed “multicultural society”, immigration and migration invasion etc, yet painfully pro-Jewish lobby and pro-Israel.
GB News even allows the mendacious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA” Jew-Zionists to spout their lies unopposed, as does the “does anyone actually watch?” Talk TV (now online only). Why? (especially since “Slitherman”, the chief spokesperson for the “CAA”, was exposed several years ago, in open court, as a serial online troll and harasser of others, mainly women).
So I was interested to see the following tweet from Matt Goodwin, former academic, who is now more or less a Reform UK propagandist and, more recently, also a GB News presenter and commentator:
“The truth is that disinformation is information those in power don’t agree with and misinformation is information they don’t want you to read”https://t.co/ZnrLXv3QsV
That person, Paul Marshall, is not only extremely wealthy (apparently, £875M as of last year, so probably far more by now), but also the mainstay of GB News.
In the financial year 2022-2023, GB News reported a loss of no less than £42M, and would certainly have disappeared had not Paul Marshall invested £41M at that point.
It is impossible to say for sure, on facts known, whether that personal connection has influenced the editorial line of GB News; I should say, though, that it is more likely than not.
Britain’s borders have become such a joke that taxpayers are now having to pay for a German Shepherd dog that crossed the English Channel in a small boat.
A similar picture to all other recent opinion polls, though the Cons here are higher (the last opinion poll, from a different polling org, had them on only 16%).
On that basis, the Cons would be 4th-largest party in the Commons. Other recent predictions have had them as 5th-largest. Amazing, for a party which, only a year or two ago, was still at times spoken of as “the natural party of government” in the UK.

The first direct observation of gravitational waves captured the merging of two black holes which emitted 36 septillion yottawatts of power (3.6×10⁴⁹ watts), greater than the combined power of all light radiated by all the stars in the observable universe.
Fact is, I was right, when halfwit Nelson Mandela took over in South Africa: I said then that South Africa would go the way of the rest of black-ruled sub-Saharan Africa (corrupt, violent, shambolic), but that SA would take longer to fall into the swamp because the proportion of whites in the population was far higher than had been the case in any other African country. At one time, it was as high as 22%; at present somewhere around 5%, probably:
“Statistics South Africa asks people to describe themselves in the census in terms of five racial population groups.[167] The 2022 census figures for these groups were: Black African at 81%, Coloured at 8.2%, White at 7.3%, Indian or Asian at 2.7%, and Other/Unspecified at 0.5%.[9] The first census in 1911 showed that whites made up 22% of the population; this had declined to 16% by 1980.”
Proportion of whites in SA population: 7.3% in 2022. Now? Maybe 5%, maybe still 6%, but declining, as Europeans find living in a black-ruled (though not run) country impossible.
At last, someone in the White House with the stones to say what everyone’s thinking. Trump lobs a truth grenade at the South African president and the usual vermin squeal.

Exactly. All the UK opinion polls on socio-political subjects are inaccurate for that reason— the views of non-whites/non-Brits are taken into account as if they are the views of “British people”. One reason why the pollsters (and the msm) mostly underestimated the recent election “upsets”.

So up to half a million lost in a year. Even if that figure includes those “merely” injured (many badly and even catastrophically), it is huge. Unsustainable. The Kiev regime cannot sustain such losses, especially combined with the very high rates of avoidance of military service, and desertion.

This goes well beyond “a pound of flesh“, with or without blood.
It is certainly arguable (for a number of reasons) that Hamas should not have attacked areas of southern Israel in 2023. However, Israeli retaliation went from being somewhat proportionate, in the first few days after that incursion, to being both disproportionate and then utterly brutal after that.
Later, Israeli-Jewish brutality became really just a kind of State-organized sadism, which then morphed into, effectively, attempted genocide of the entire Palestinian Arab population in Gaza. Daily bombing and machinegunning (etc) of civilians, deliberate withholding of medical aid, destruction of hospitals, an embargo on food, the deliberate starvation of children and others, and the planned deportation or slaughter of the entire population.
Incredibly, the Israelis (and the Jews outside Israel that support Israel, and suborned puppets such as Starmer and other UK political and msm souls-for-hire) are still whining about what Germans and others are supposed to have done to some Jews in Europe and Russia, mainly in the early 1940s, 80-85 years ago.
The Israeli embassy was undoubtedly involved in lobbying for my prosecution for satirical songs.

Today, I woke up hearing about sexual offenders being released early from UK prisons and I’m now going to bed hearing about Lucy Connolly being kept in jail for sharing some hurty words on social media. The absurd reality of modern Britain.
In reality, even were it thought to be necessary (I say not) or appropriate to send that lady to prison for her arguably inflammatory words on social media, 3 months would have been enough, and more than enough, to send a message to her and others. She was sentenced, on 17 October 2025, to 31 months, of which 40%, or about 12 months, will be spent in prison.
If memory serves, Lucy Connolly spent over a month in prison on remand before sentencing (it will be recalled that “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer-stein interfered with the handling of all those post-“riot” cases) , so that month or six weeks will be discounted anyway. On that basis, Lucy Connolly would have been released by some date in September 2025 anyway, even without having appealed on sentence (she could not have appealed the conviction as such, she having pleaded guilty).
As it is, at time of writing it appears that the Court of Appeal justices have reserved judgment.
I think that Katie Hopkins is right about the reasons for that; see
The Appeal Court does not need time to make a judgement.
Of course, I do not agree with Katie Hopkins’ lauding (in her tweet video) of stupid pro-Jewish-lobby scribbler Allison Pearson and the hypocritical “Free Speech Union” of Toby Young (also completely under the spell of the worst parts of the Jewish/Israel lobby). I have blogged about all of that on previous occasions.
We should know by Monday whether Lucy Connolly will be released soon. I expect she will be, with or without some face-saving slight delay.
Of course, what makes the Lucy Connolly sentence egregiously harsh is not even the 31 months itself (very harsh though that was, especially on a —possibly misguided— guilty plea; a mother of young children with no previous convictions, wife of an unwell husband etc; and because her swiftly-deleted tweet in fact resulted in no actual real-world riotous effects); but also the societal background.
A cursory look at the newspapers will show endless cases of (real) violence, of theft (often considerable in quantum) etc, in which cases the defendants (usually with previous convictions) have been given non-custodial sentences, or immediate prison sentences but far shorter than that visited upon Lucy Connolly.
The perceived helplessness of Lucy Connolly (a childminder, with her own young children, and who cried during her court appearances) makes her treatment all the more infuriating. It is as if (?) she has been made a deliberately-chosen sacrificial victim.
I am enjoying the vibes shift in the UK right now. Times columnist once critical of our Substack now comes round to what we argued for two years ago. Time to leave the ECHR.
That little twerp, Sebastian Payne, a failed Conservative Party candidate (he applied for several candidatures for Westminster seats during 2022-2024 but was never selected: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebastian_Payne) evidently thinks that the Con Party still has a run in it, and that, if the Nigerian woman now “leading” it will pledge to leave the ECHR regime, the Con Party will rise again.
It is sad, in a way, that the Westminster Bubble people, such as Payne, seem to genuinely believe that the ECHR issue is, firstly, of huge importance, and secondly, that it resonates with the Average Joe voter.
Just taking the second point, the idea that the average voter really cares about the ECHR, whatever its effect on deportations etc, is ludicrous. Most people do not know what it is, and that will not change however often some black woman posing as “Conservative” leader pushes it on TV.
'It's a marvelous initiative from the NHS to not be ageist in any way about the people that they're happy to see.'
DR Helen Webberley, Founder of GenderGP, outlines new NHS plans to treat nursery age children who believe they are transgender. pic.twitter.com/O2o8SDqYfs
Why is GB News even allowing that woman to spout rubbish, and why do they allow her to describe herself as “Dr” and so to pose as some kind of “expert”?
Helen Webberly and her husband, a struck-off medic, founded the misleadingly-named “GenderGP” in 2015 in Singapore: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GenderGP. A fraudulent and money-making entity.
Helen Webberley was suspended from practice by the GMC in the UK. Her husband, a retired gastroenterologist (i.e. not a specialist in the “trans”/sex/”gender” field) took over the business (for such it is), but was himself then suspended from practice, later being struck off the medical register.
Though Helen Webberley’s suspension from practice was lifted in 2023, her licence to practise was revoked in 2024.
I have always been wary of medics who prefer to be politicians, political activists etc (a few examples being Armand Hammer, Hastings Banda, Papa Doc Duvalier, David Owen, Che Guevara, Radovan Karadzic, Bashar al-Assad), and the same goes for medics who become money-grasping quasi-medical “activists” and business chancers (cf. Julia Grace Patterson, the British “Covid” fanatic, pseudo-champion of the NHS, and facemask seller).
Same basic story as in all other recent opinion polls: Reform UK easily top, and well ahead of fake Labour; Conservative Party trailing a very poor third, only just ahead of the LibDems.

Time was, when I would have defended the BBC and its non-commercial funding, albeit while recognizing that it needed radical reform to get it back to its founding Reithian principles (“inform, educate, entertain“…in that order), but it has become a politically-correct, “woke”, anti-British, anti-white-Northern-European monstrosity. I just want it gone now; either that or very radically changed, pared back to about a tenth of its present size, and not paid for by the so-called “licence fee” (tax).
Ha ha. Not very polite, but that resident is not wrong.
As for the canvasser, just a pawn. People like Starmer-stein, Rachel Reeves, Liz Kendall, Yvette Cooper etc are making careers and very large amounts of money out of their political life, and pawns like that local canvasser tramp the council estates and other mean streets of decaying England trying to sell a Labour Party which is merely one dishonest face of NWO/ZOG globalism, and which does nothing for the British people.
In fact, tweeter StacyWright/”@Stacywr2277″ is quite wrong about Mandela. He was not locked up for saying anything. He, at the time a middle-aged —46-y-o— failed black law student, was tried (very fairly, too) for having planned a race war in South Africa. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivonia_Trial.
All those on trial were blacks or Jews. One of the Jews alleged to have been involved was discharged by the trial judge at the close of the prosecution case, while another was acquitted. Four others escaped from prison custody.
Mandela, as thick as two short planks, was a failure as a would-be urban guerrilla and revolutionary, but a race war against Europeans was certainly his objective; he was arrested before he, and the other blacks (and Jews) involved, could put their plans into effect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivonia_Trial#Charges.

Well, same story as in other recent polls— Reform well ahead of Labour, with the Con Party trailing miserably. This poll, though, shows Reform again (for the second time) cracking the 30% “barrier”.
Electoral Calculus suggests, on those numbers, Reform having 334 MPs (an absolute majority of 8, but a working majority of 18). Labour 180, LibDems 58, SNP with only 28 MPs yet still ahead of the Cons (23 MPs).
So once again, the Con Party predicted to be in only 5th place, and with only 23 MPs. Terminal, probably.
I was looking yesterday at a blog post I published about 4 years ago, I think in 2021, and in which I said something like “…and, somewhat to my surprise, Keir Starmer seems to be utterly clueless.” Well, was I right or wrong?
As I have often said, the UK is now about 20% non-white; England certainly is. The Labour vote is now largely a non-white vote (together with a vote by public service workers, esp. NHS). Almost all non-whites vote Labour if they vote at all.
Using Electoral Calculus, the numbers suggest a Commons with no less than 300 Reform MPs, 188 Labour, 62 LibDem, 44 Con (26 SNP, etc).

Nathan Otitodilchukwu, 18, and a 16-year-old boy who cannot be named, threatened to “torch” the pensioner before punching a hole in his window and pushing a firework into his home, the Old Bailey heard.
Depending on a number of variables, that might mean a Commons with 375 Reform MPs, and so a very large (50-60) real majority; 121 Lab MPs; 62 LibDems; 38 SNP; 25 Con MPs.
