[swimming pool “Moskva”, pictured in the late 1970s. At the time, it was the largest swimming pool in the world. I myself swam there later, in the early summer of 1993. In or about 1994, it was closed, and a replica of the 19thC Russian Orthodox cathedral that had once stood on the site was then built: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moskva_Pool; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_of_Christ_the_Saviour]
I was glad when Trump was first elected, and then later re-elected, and for one reason only, i.e. that he would probably not trigger or launch a nuclear war with Russia. To that extent, my “choice” (notional only, because I am not, nor ever have been, a U.S. citizen, though I was once a “resident alien” issued with a Green Card) has been validated by events. However, much of what is happening in the USA now is somewhere between tragedy and farce.
In fact, it is said that that particular video, above, is yet another AI production. Not unlikely, but my point still stands.
On a related topic, how long before a “long-lost piece of AGFA film” is “found”, and will appear to “prove” that German labour prison/labour camps in Poland in the early 1940s “really did” have “gas chambers”?
I wonder…
[many many years ago, a supposed blueprint plan of the Auschwitz camp was supposedly “found” in a Berlin attic. It had “GAS CHAMBER” marked in big capital letters, in case the point was missed by anyone (nothing else on the supposed plan was so marked). It was a one-day-wonder as a news story, and I have heard nothing of it since, I presume because the fakery was a little too obvious]
So 16,500 (in the civil war in Iran) is “genocide“, but 50,000-100,000 (in the Israeli-Jew “war” on mainly unarmed Arab civilians in Gaza) is supposedly not “genocide”. What a world.

[“This evening, with sorrow, I have decided to resign from my position as an Opposition Shadow Minister and as a member of the Conservative & Unionist Party. Since joining the Conservative Party at the age of 14, I have been a loyal and committed supporter of the principles advocated by Margaret Thatcher that have always underpinned my own political beliefs. However, the time has come to put country before party. The failure of the Conservative Party both when in government and more recently in opposition to actively hold the government to account on the issue of Chagossian self-determination and the defence of British sovereignty, represents a clear red line for me. Since entering Parliament in 2001, I have consistently argued, both from the backbenches and the frontbench, that the right of self-determination of the Chagossian people is sacrosanct, and that they alone should decide the future sovereignty of the Chagos Islands. Regrettably, these concerns have fallen on deaf ears. Both the government and the opposition have been complicit in the surrender of this sovereign British territory to a foreign power. This was made abundantly clear by the failure of Conservative peers to vote down the British Indian Ocean Territory Bill at third reading earlier this month, following direction from the top of the party. Sadly, I now believe that the Conservative Party is irreparably bound to the mistakes of previous governments and unwilling to take meaningful accountability for the poor decisions made over so many issues. Moreover, the views and concerns of constituents such as mine in Romford have been consistently ignored for far too long. Following a conversation earlier this evening with Nigel Farage M.P., I have therefore agreed to join Reform U.K. as its seventh Member of Parliament. It is clear to me that Reform U.K. is now the only political movement that is genuinely willing to fight for the best interests of the United Kingdom. The views and concerns of the majority of the British people must no longer be sidelined. Our country has endured a generation of managed decline. Radical action is now required to reverse the damaging decisions of the past and to forge a new course for Britain – one that firmly places the interests of the British people first.”]
Another not-very-impressive Con Party MP defects to Reform UK. An expenses cheat, who has accepted freebie trips to Israel with Conservative Friends of Israel.
I agree with some of Rosindell’s views, but not with most.
The brutal, corrupt, and shambolic dictatorship of the Jew Zelensky.
The Kiev regime’s crumbling front lines are manned by people dragged off the street kicking and screaming. Little pay, not much rotation out of the front line, and no discharge (until the war ends, which might be years away) for those who escape being killed, horribly wounded, or captured. No wonder Ukrainian men will do anything to avoid being drafted.
🇺🇦🇷🇺 Zelensky blames the weather for Russian gains on the front lines

That's the difference between Russia in Ukraine and the US in Iraq, we don't hate the Ukrainians, we don't have to destroy millions of them.
If we wanted this conflict over in a month, it would be, but at the cost of 1mil civilians in Kiev alone. That would be terrible. https://t.co/N7K01AvPn6
Exactly. If the order were given, Kiev could be a smoking, nuclear-irradiated wasteland within half an hour or less. That is not Putin’s wish. He wants a productive Eastern Ukraine under Russian rule, and/or to restore the ancient link between Moscow and Kiev, which after all existed until 1991.

[“Look at the pic. This is Ukraine’s Minister of Energy, Svitlana Hrynchuk on a photo, who appears in recordings by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) in a major corruption case in the energy sector. She received kickbacks from embezzled funds allocated for the construction of protective infrastructure for the energy system—an initiative that received nearly $5 billion in funding from the United States alone. These defenses were never built. The money was stolen by people in Zelensky’s inner circle. The scheme was reportedly led by Zelensky’s close friend and personal “wallet,” Tymur Mindich. Yet Zelensky feels so secure in misappropriating U.S. funds that he placed one of the central figures in this corruption scheme right in front of the President of the United States. Hrynchuk is the common-law wife of former Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko, whom Zelensky reassigned as Minister of Justice after the investigation began. The previous Minister of Justice, Olga Stefanishyna – also charged by NABU in a separate corruption case now in court – was appointed as Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United States and is also on the table, right to the Hrynchuck. Zelensky brought a corrupt minister and sat her right in front of Trump.#TrueUkraine#ZelenskyLies.”]

A General Election now, or soon, would result in a massive win for Reform UK; certainly a plurality of seats in the Commons, and quite likely an overall majority, perhaps a large one.
An opinion poll, I think by YouGov, states that 60% of UK adults are generally in favour of the UK government’s “Net Zero” nonsense. Well, I do not overestimate the intelligence of most of my fellow Brits, but that seems hard to believe. Are they really that stupid, or so easily brainwashed? Thinking of the “panicdemic” Covid scam(demic), maybe they are. Depressing.

Whatever may be said about MOSSAD, there is little doubt that, over many decades, it has proven, repeatedly, its ability to undertake complex assignments, and to bring those assignments to a successful conclusion.
I found myself wondering how it was that, after Vanunu’s product found its way into the Sunday Times, MI5 was unaware of the fact that Vanunu was being honeytrapped?
Or was MI5 (and/or SIS/MI6) in fact perfectly aware, but let the thing continue? Why would MI5 or SIS do that? Well, maybe to keep UK-Israel relations stable by allowing (whether expressly or tacitly) MOSSAD to abduct Vanunu from a third country (as it turned out, Italy), thus allowing British services and government to wash their hands of it all. “Nothing to do with us, ‘guv”.
We shall only know for sure by reference to the records of MI5, SIS, or Israeli Intelligence, and that is not going to happen in our lifetimes.

Worth watching/hearing, but his final advice to join the so-called “Free Speech Union” hits a bum note.
The “FSU”, set up by Toby Young, has never once helped anyone attacked for their speech or online opinions by the Jew-Zionist lobby, aka Israel lobby, such as (most egregiously) the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, headed by a liar and perjurer called Gideon Falter, who is assisted by another liar, and maker of false accusations, called (by me) “Slitherman”, who calls himself their “Head of Investigations and Enforcement”. The sheer gall of the bastard! Incredible.
I have frequently blogged about their decade-long campaign against me, but they have also attacked many many others, ranging from persecuted satirist and singer Alison Chabloz, and jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, to David Icke etc, right through to large organizations such as the BBC and Al Jazeera.
At present, the “CAA” is privately prosecuting (criminally) several persons: Dr. David Miller, Nick Griffin, black comedian Reginald D. Hunter; others too. The “CAA” is also conspiring against people such as NHS doctor Dr. Rahmeh Aladwan.
The “CAA” even tried to get the Metropolitan Police Commissioner to resign (or to have him dismissed), and to that end contrived a street provocation using Gideon Falter, who then —once more— lied to get what he wanted but, as often in the past, failed.
All of that activity is an abuse of the English legal system, so-called “lawfare”, on behalf of Israel and its fanatical fifth column in the UK.
So what has the “Free Speech Union” had to say about the “CAA” and its abusive behaviour (including its attacks on me)? Nothing. So to me, the FSU is the same— nothing.

Some want to eliminate Palestinian babies. Listen to religious leaders too: Rabbi Eliyahu Mali “Today he is a baby, tomorrow he is a fighter … whoever comes to kill you … also includes the future generation (the children of Gaza), and those who produce the future generation (women of Gaza)” And the whole fu**ing world is not stopping them.“]
The UK (government and people) should be cracking down at least on Israel’s diplomatic representation in this country and, most importantly, on the Jew-Zionist organizations and individuals which are facilitating Israeli war crimes; organizations such as the small but (((well-funded))) “Campaign Against Antisemitism” and its unpleasant spokespersons such as “Slitherman”.
Is that so surprising? There has been a gradual takeover of the USA (especially political life, publishing, TV/radio, film industry legal system) by “them”; over a century or more, but especially since the 1970s.

Matthew you talk absolute nonsense Their is a two tier system & we all know it Ricky Jones should have gone to prison for what he said & the gesture he made as well The only person who is humiliating themselves is you with your statement & stupidity
That tweeter/commentator, Stadlen, a half-Jew, takes every opportunity to attack those fighting against the migration-invasion of this country.
As to the “jury’s verdict” in the Ricky Jones case, it was plainly perverse, plainly political or socio-political and, as I noted yesterday on the blog, probably the result of a largely or entirely non-white jury, and/or one containing jurors motivated by socio-political bias.
In fact, once society becomes fragmented, the jury system no longer works properly, at least in “political” cases. That is what happened in Northern Ireland in the 1970s. Juries were biased either towards or against defendants, bias based on perceived community allegiances, or were subject to intimidation. Thus it became necessary to institute “Diplock courts”, in which a judge sat without a jury:
A friend of mine, a barrister, once saw a Diplock court in action in Belfast, sometime in the 1980s (invited to see it by a barrister he knew from that region). He told me it was strange to enter a typical old-style British courtroom, all wooden panelling, bewigged judge and Counsel etc, but no jury. As well as the usual court staff, usher etc, a couple of policemen standing guard, and armed with submachineguns.
In the case before that court, a man stood accused of being a member of one of the paramilitary organizations (I forget which one). My friend recounting this to me said that the impression was that of a kangaroo court, but in fact the judge, on consideration of all the evidence, acquitted the defendant at the end.
A number of (real) British people have been imprisoned for race/politics offences in recent years, after juries convicted them; Jez Turner, and Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch), to name but two. Time for Brits on juries to start acquitting those standing up for European race, culture and civilization.
