Well, slightly to my surprise, I defeated political journalist John Rentoul once again this week. Rentoul scored 4/10, but I trumped that, scoring 6/10 (admittedly, was unsure about question 8). I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, 4, and 5.
Journalistic accuracy
Never accept, without checking, whatever a journalistic scribbler may say. I was just reading a not-uninteresting piece in The Oldie magazine, and about the Metropolitan Police in the 1970s, which article was written in 2023 by Duncan Campbell, a well-known journalist and author who was, arguably, better-known in the 1980s than he now is.
Reading Campbell’s nicely-written piece, I notice that he says (in 2023) of the famous or infamous ex-cat burglar, Peter Scott, that “Scott now lives in a council flat in King’s Cross, the proceeds from the odd Vermeer and Sophia Loren’s diamonds long gone.“
As a matter of fact, I reviewed Scott’s memoirs on Amazon UK many years ago now.
My Amazon book reviews are now unavailable— the usual pack of Jews had me “cancelled” about 15 years ago, around 2010, from reviewing books both on Amazon UK (where I was one of the top book reviewers) and Amazon USA. A Jew formerly resident in the UK but now living in Ra’anana (a suburb-town in the Tel Aviv area of Israel/Occupied Palestine) was the main instigator.
Scott lived, in his heyday, in the less-prestigious outer part of Maida Vale, whereas I lived at one time in Little Venice (also part of Maida Vale):
My (intermittent, from 1976 to 1996) times in Little Venice overlapped with Scott’s time in the area (he used the tiny “gangster pub”, the Windsor Castle, in Lanark Place, a pub at one time supposedly owned by Barbara Windsor, who was tied up with all sorts of gangsters and other criminals).
[The old Windsor Castle pub, in Lanark Place W.9., not to be confused with another and much larger pub with the same name in the outer regions of Maida Vale by Harrow Road; I believe both are now permanently closed, the Little Venice one (above) now trading as a Korean food outlet. Sign of the times…]
I occasionally had a drink there. One morning, waiting for the no.6 bus to take me to the High Court (I was appearing as Counsel), I observed the aftermath of a police raid there; about 3 or 4 police cars blocking Lanark Place. God knows why.
A flying boat capable of going nearly 6,000 miles without refuelling, at a cruising speed of 360 mph; maximum speed 380 mph.
The 105 passengers were carried in First and Tourist cabins.
As with the 1930s German airships, the Empire flying boats made in the UK were in some respects superior to the flying machines of today. As Francis Bacon observed, just because a thing is superseded by another thing does not mean that the latter is superior.
[“The Russian military struck Ukrainian infrastructure over the past day, the Defense Ministry reported: https://vk.cc/cIPYtl“— TASS]
“Labour must stop looking down on voters and start taking fears over immigration seriously”, says the Labour Prime Minister who has no plan for stopping the boats and is further liberalising the entire immigration system …
“Boris Johnson is no threat. He is the architect of all the decline & chaos you see around you today, all the mass uncontrolled immigration. If an architect destroyed your home you would never invite him back.”
[Matt Goodwin]
The only “threat” is that a huge number of dummies have still, after everything, not yet awoken to the utter uselessness of “Boris” Johnson.
I think that I can claim to have been one of the first not personally acquainted with Johnson to have realized that he was not only unfit morally to be MP, minister, and then Prime Minister, but actually intellectually incapable of doing any of those jobs.
I expressed my views first on Amazon book reviews from about 2002 (but was “cancelled” by Jewish lobby pressure sometime around 2010 or 2011); then on Twitter from 2010 until Jews again brought pressure on Twitter to “cancel” me (in 2018). Also, on the blog from 2017 to present.
Having said that, there are still a huge number of idiots, mainly Conservative Party members and voters, still willing to support “Boris”, so it is not inconceivable that he could return to Parliament, get Carpetbagger Kemi binned, then take over the “Conservative” Party again. I doubt, though, that that would propel the Cons to victory over Lab; it might save some existing Con Party seats, however.
If the Cons were set to lose about 80 seats, the loss might be reduced by half. Most of Reform’s likely victories henceforth, though, will be in seats presently held by Labour, not by the Con Party.
I remember that. I mentioned the matter on the blog a day or two before the “Ukrainians” (creatures of Zelensky’s regime) killed him.

Not exactly. Trump has treated the little NWO/ZOG hirelings, such as Macron, Starmer, Tusk and, a fortiori, Zelensky, with the contempt they deserve. They have outlived their usefulness, and are now dismissed. A salutary lesson for all intending traitors.

Looks as if Goodwin has woken up to what I have been blogging for many years. My blog post below (updated frequently) dates from 2019…
To guess at likely election results 4 years ahead of time is to go where the angels fear to tread, of course, but why should I stop now?!
To my mind, assuming we avoid nuclear war etc, the result of the next UK general election will be something like Reform UK 30%, Labour 25%, Con 18%, LibDems maybe 12%, Greens maybe 8%.
That would in turn result in Reform UK having 319 Commons seats (Lab 157, LibDem 60, Con 50, Greens 4 etc).
A Reform UK on the brink of an overall majority, but look at the Con Party! 50 seats, and only 4th placed behind Reform, Labour, and the LibDems. Terminal.
Unfortunately, I cannot see much chance, as yet, for a genuinely social-national party to emerge. The rise of Reform has taken the wind out of those sails. Still, all roads lead to Rome…
‘Should we farm octopuses for food?’ Definitely NOT! Nor any other sentient being No creature should ever be cruelly caged and confined#FactoryFarming is a stain on humanity and #shames us all@ciwfhttps://t.co/dR8cmDGq0m
Octopus are one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet. They even show gratitude to humans when shown kindness. No one could pay me any amount of money to eat them. https://t.co/EHPip2aPL4
Aristotle, apparently, called the octopus “a stupid creature“. Aristotle was wrong. It seems that he said that because an octopus will approach a man’s hand in water. We now know that that is because the octopus wants to be friendly, and is sometimes willing to take the risk that the man may not be. Aristotle can now be both understood and corrected.
The relentless sound of our heads smashing against the wall in frustration is met with nothing but silence—because, of course, the ones who should be listening couldn’t care less.
That would result in Reform UK having 189 MPs (Lab 181, Con 162, LibDem 58, Greens 4). A hung Parliament requiring a Reform-Con agreement of some kind.

Zelensky is a dictator, or at least the figurehead of a dictatorship. That is a fact. Elections “delayed” and not expected to be held for years, if ever. Dissidents arrested, with some imprisoned, some even shot. Trade unions banned. Opposition parties, opposed to the war, or favourable to negotiation with Russia, banned. Military recruits simply seized off the streets and brutally pressganged.
That’s before you even start with the pervasive corruption, which is worse the higher you get in the Ukrainian fake state. Every kind of international gangsterism and moneylaundering is there.
Zelensky and his cabal is now sidelined as a near-irrelevance. Why? Because the Kiev regime is not a real player in the war. Stop the arms and ammunition (and vast amounts of US, EU, and UK taxpayer monies) going to the Kiev regime, and the war will stop within weeks. The war juggernaut cannot run without that fuel.
There are only two real players in the war, Russia and the USA, and now, thank God, they are both interested seriously in a negotiated peace, or at least a negotiated armistice.
The EU states and the UK are not serious players because the amount of arms, ammunition, and money they are wasting on the Kiev regime is less than half of the total spend. If the USA stops funding the Kiev regime but the EU and UK continue, the war will continue for a while until, before very long, Russian forces prevail and the Zelensky dictatorship collapses (in 2025 or 2026).
Ukraine is not a proper state, and was not even when it was established, in the 1990s. I have heard tales of corruption and degeneracy that would make your hair stand up on end. Now, even basic State functions are only carried out because of the Western money being funneled to the regime.
Trump may not be a particularly likeable man or leader, but I seriously think that, to put it in traditional terms, “God is on his side” in trying to close down this terrible war; in other respects as well.
Russia has been partly to blame. I blame the leadership (from high to low) of the Russian Army, air force, SVR, and also the political leadership, for not having conducted a swift and unstoppable coup de main and coup d’etat in early 2022.
I have written about this previously on the blog. Something akin to the way in which the Afghan government was removed in 1979.
Swift. Relentless. Remorseless.
Had that been done, civilian casualties and environmental damage would have been minimal. The whole thing would have been over in a few days.
Going from the sublime to the ridiculous, the minor would-be players, such as Starmer, and (if the idiot is worth even mentioning) David Lammy, are just making themselves look ridiculous. They talk about “British boots on the ground in Ukraine“, when only between 5,000 and (at very most) 10,000 troops could be sent, and they would be irrelevant in such a situation, quite apart from quite likely sparking a major Russia-NATO war.
Little lawyer Starmer is out of his depth. He should leave Ukraine alone and start to do something (if he even wants to, and if he is capable of doing anything useful) about the invasion of Britain by blacks and browns.
As said, Zelensky can be regarded as a dictator or, perhaps more accurately, the figurehead of a dictatorial cabal of thieves, those thieves posing as a legitimate government.
People in the Western msm, and System politics, are now waking up to what I have been presuming for some time, namely that, if a European NATO state calls upon the “mutual aid” Article 5 of the NATO treaty, regarding a situation arising from the Ukraine situation, and if that state wants other NATO states to weigh in against Russia, the USA (all the more so now Trump is President) might well say “no” in respect of US forces, or nuclear weapons, getting involved.
NATO has outlived its usefulness.
The idea that Russia wants to occupy central and western Europe, or even most of eastern Europe (Poland, the Baltic states), is ridiculous anyway. Those EU states and others throwing money at the Zelensky “government” in Kiev are a joke. Wasting money which should be going to improve the lives of their own citizens, whose taxes are being stolen, in effect.
Britain should be ready to normalize relations with Russia now. In fact, that is the only way that Brexit can work properly. We can form a mutually-beneficial trading and strategic connection with Russia. The rest of Europe (within or without the EU) should do the same.
Thoughts about “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer’s latest nonsense
Starmer has now commented that he may decide to plant British “boots on the ground” in Ukraine. This is a comment which could only be made by someone with no grasp at all of geopolitical realities, and no thought at all for the welfare of the British people.
So what happens if/when serious fighting breaks out between the forces of the Russian Federation and those of the Kiev regime? Presumably, Starmer will want them to fight on the side of the Kiev-regime forces, i.e. against those of the Russian Federation, unless the British forces would just stand there, or retreat westward.
At that point, a NATO nuclear-armed state’s forces would be in direct armed conflict with Russian nuclear-armed forces. What happens when the Brit forces, maybe thousands of them, are destroyed? Send another tranche? How so, when the battle-ready UK Army numbers around 30,000 (some say fewer)?
Has Starmer thought this through? I think not. He’s useless.
Apart from anything else, the Russian Government would inevitably see the presence of NATO troops in Ukraine, whether designated as “peacekeeping forces” or not, as tantamount to a NATO force in Ukraine and on the side of the Kiev regime.
Madness.

“This story just breaking in The Telegraph must spell the end of Lord Hermer’s time as Attorney General. It’s been disclosed Hermer fought for compensation for Mustafa al-Hawsawi , one of the plotters of 9/11 where 2,900 people were killed. Hermer claimed the MoD, MI5 and MI6 were complicit in the torture of Hawsawi who was arrested in Pakistan alongside the 9/11 mastermind in 2003. Hermer started taking the terrorist’s money in 2023. A year later al-Hawsawi pleads guilty to murdering 2,900 people and is sentenced to life meaning life. Let’s get this right. One minute Hermer is accusing the MoD torture the next moment he’s on Labour’s payroll. A total shit. And don’t believe all this tosh about lawyer’s having to take the cab off the rank. As a KC he’s so busy he can pick and choose.who he represents. He chose a terrorist. Says all you need to know about Lord Hermer.“
Meanwhile, in Germany it's much the same. When Europeans complain about the US excluding then from negotiations, we know why: Europe has nothing to offer, and will just demand US taxpayers continue doing what Ursula, Keir, Olaf and Emanuel want.https://t.co/xUSjCKR7cp
Starmer is talking s**t, as usual. Not only would putting UK “boots on the ground” be likely to go very wrong, and potentially lead to a conflict between the UK and Russia, possibly nuclear, but it seems that the quantity and indeed quality of British troops would be inadequate, taking “quality” to include their equipment, arms, armament, air “lift” power etc.
The best soldiers in the world are all but helpless without the right arms, armament, transport, logistics etc. True, in small scale “special forces” situations that is less so, but the Ukrainian theatre is not like that. Do not think Bosnia, Oman, Northern Ireland; think Second World War or, indeed, First World War.
Large armies, large artillery contingents, slugging it out on a vast scale. Even the present overall front-line is something like 900 miles long.
We see retired Brit senior officers saying that the UK government should be doubling military expenditure “to face Russia”. Why? There is actually no need. Russia is only looking (to some) like an adversary because the UK has been backing the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev. Russia would much prefer to have cordial or at least normal relations with the UK.
Even leaving that aside, to scale-up the British armed forces to anything like what would be required to have more than a token effect in Ukraine would take not months but years. Personnel, training, re-equipping, rearming etc. Maybe 5 years.
Where would Britain’s retired senior officers’ new fantasy armies come from? Young people in the UK mostly wish to have nothing to do with anything military or naval, and who can blame them, looking at the increasingly degenerate and shambolic country they live in…
Meanwhile, Britain’s people become poorer by the year, Britain’s road and rail network is not even maintained, for the most part, properly, drug and alcohol abuse is rife, the population is degenerating culturally and ethnically, hutches for migrant-invaders threaten what is left of the green and pleasant land, and idealism (whether real or misplaced), is hard to find.
“As Starmer and his advisors scurry to Paris this morning collectively shamed by Washington into finally pulling their finger out on defence, here’s two cold hard realities.
1. The idea of deploying a peacekeeping force to Ukraine is indeed noble. But the UK have four deployable brigades for such a task. These would need to be re-rolled into a coherent entity or BCT, plus a corps level HQ which would be expected by allies. This would exhaust the British Army – with many units up to one third non-deployable. The notion of a 10k UK force I’ve seen doing the rounds is simply laughable. At most, a brigade, and this would exhaust the Army past 18 months (3 rotations).
2. The absolute fallacy of Starmer thinking he can send a credible force – whilst *still* insisting in private he won’t go above 2.65% GDP for defence spending – is utterly shameful. The cost of deploying even one brigade will cost billions extra a year – whilst straining the Army to its seams. To commit UK forces but not be prepared to fund it adequately is shameful, and shows no signs from learning from Iraq and Afghanistan.“
[Robert Clark]
Worth noting that. Not that I agree that sending Brit troops to Ukraine is in any way “noble“. We, as Brits, have neither selfish interest nor any moral obligation to do so. “Ukraine” as a state has existed for only 33-34 years, since 1991.
Since then, it has been the most corrupt “state” or quasi-state in Europe. The Kiev regime is not only corrupt but brutal and shambolic. Trade unions are banned, dissidents arrested or even shot or otherwise disposed of. Elections should have been held, at latest, a year ago.
Zelensky and his thieving cabal (with their overseas villas and offshore bank accounts) have stolen literally billions, and rule by decree and brute force. Few Ukrainians volunteer to fight; most, almost all now, are either drafted compulsorily or are pressed into service after having been abducted off the streets.
Moreover, Britain has effectively no historical ties of any substance with the region, and none with Ukraine as a state, because until 1991, Ukraine was merely part of the Soviet Union, and before that part of the Russian Empire.
Starmer and his ludicrous Cabinet of idiots have nothing in the tank. I am not referring only to the armed forces but across the board. They are empty of ideals, ideas, policies, and public support.
🚨 By now everyone knows how US-based orgs like USAID fund NGOs to promote US interests abroad. But did you know the EU has its own USAID?
It funded the fake “movement” set up to oppose Brexit during the 2016 Referendum, and put in as figurehead that ridiculous “Femi” creature (Femi Oluwole), a loudmouth Nigerian know-nothing who makes a living by occasional TV appearances, online donations, and while living in his parents’ house (they are both NHS consultants): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Oluwole.

They care about their safety & capacity to provide for themselves & their children … Contrary to what you might hear in Davos, citizens don’t think of themselves as educated animals or as interchangeable cogs of a global economy.”

“In 1943, amid the devastating final years of World War II, the Berlin Zoo was heavily bombed, leaving much of the zoo in ruins and many of its animals in grave danger. Among the survivors was a Shoe-billed stork, an unusual and majestic bird recognized for its unique, shoe-shaped bill and stately demeanor. With the zoo’s facilities destroyed, the stork found an unlikely refuge in a nurse’s bathroom, a small but safe haven where it was cared for during the chaos of war. The nurse’s bathroom became a sanctuary for the bird, symbolizing the compassion and determination of those who worked to protect the zoo’s animals despite the dire circumstances. The stork’s survival depended on the care it received in this improvised setting, where it was fed and tended to with limited resources. This poignant scene of a wild, exotic bird in a domestic, human space emphasized the extraordinary lengths people went to preserve life during a time when destruction seemed all-encompassing. The survival of the Shoe-billed stork and its temporary shelter in the nurse’s bathroom became a powerful symbol of resilience and hope amidst the horrors of war. While much of the zoo was destroyed and many animals were lost, stories like this highlight the small acts of care and humanity that endured even in the darkest hours. The stork’s journey is a testament to the enduring bond between humans and animals and serves as a reminder of the fragments of hope that can emerge even in times of overwhelming devastation.“

“The subterranean city of Derinkuyu, located in Cappadocia region of Türkiye, an extraordinary historical site with the capacity to house an estimated 20,000 to 60,000 people, including their livestock and supplies. Its discovery occurred unexpectedly in 1963 when a homeowner accidentally broke through a wall in his basement, unveiling an ancient and intricate underground structure hidden for centuries. Derinkuyu is an impressive multi-level complex, descending over 200 feet below the surface and consisting of at least 18 levels, though only a portion of it has been fully excavated. The city features an array of functional spaces, including living quarters, kitchens, storage areas, wine and oil presses, stables, and even chapels and schools. Ventilation shafts and a sophisticated water system ensured the city’s inhabitants could survive underground for extended periods. Defensive mechanisms, such as heavy stone doors that could be rolled into place, protected the city from invaders. Historians and archaeologists believe Derinkuyu was initially constructed by the Phrygians or Hittites in the early centuries BCE, though it was later expanded and used by various groups, including early Christians, as a refuge from persecution or attacks. Its design reflects the ingenuity and resilience of the civilizations that relied on such cities for survival during times of conflict or environmental challenges. The discovery of Derinkuyu has spurred interest in Cappadocia’s extensive network of underground cities, many of which remain unexplored. These ancient marvels continue to captivate researchers and visitors alike, shedding light on the innovative ways humans adapted to their environment and safeguarded their communities.“

“Recruits to the castle-convents scattered across Teutonic territory primarily hailed from Germanic regions such as Franconia, Thuringia, the Rhine, and other German territories. These knights, often aristocrats but also comprising lower-ranking members, were stationed in commanderies housing anywhere from 10 to 80 individuals. Similar to other military orders, recruits pledged monastic vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Joining offered prospects of spiritual rewards, adventure, career advancement, and even basic amenities like regular meals and shelter. While German settlers were permitted entry, they typically served as priests or half-brethren. Each castle-convent also accommodated local crossbowmen, as well as non-combatants like servants and craftsmen. Although officially international, the order predominantly drew recruits from German lands. Membership numbers varied, influenced by battles and territorial shifts. For instance, Prussia counted 700 members in 1379 AD, 400 in 1450 AD, 160 in 1513 AD, and 55 in 1525 AD. The total knightly roster likely never exceeded around 1,300. The order’s revenue stemmed from wartime spoils, captured territories, trade, land rents, and donations in cash, goods, or land. Some brethren paid an entry fee, while taxes on local populations were imposed in Teutonic territories by the 15th century AD. As recruitment challenges grew, the order increasingly relied on mercenaries, necessitating financial support. Commanderies not only offered training, residences, and retirement options but also extended aid to local communities through hospices, hospitals, schools, and cemeteries. Additionally, the order constructed churches, providing ongoing maintenance and fostering artistic endeavors for embellishment.“
I once knew a German lady from East Prussia, one of whose several historically-distinguished ancestors was a Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights in the Middle Ages.

“The Lion Man – An Ice Age Masterpiece : The Lion Man is a masterpiece. Sculpted with great originality, virtuosity and technical skill from mammoth ivory, this 40,000 year-old image is 31cm tall. It has the head of a cave lion with a partly human body. He stands upright, perhaps on tiptoes, legs apart and arms to the sides of a slender, cat-like body with strong shoulders like the hips and thighs of a lion. His gaze, like his stance, is powerful and directed at the viewer. The details of his face show he is attentive, he is watching and he is listening. He is powerful, mysterious and from a world beyond ordinary nature. He is the oldest known representation of a being that does not exist in physical form but symbolises ideas about the supernatural.
Found in a cave in what is now southern Germany in 1939, the Lion Man makes sense as part of a story that might now be called a myth. The wear on his body caused by handling suggests that he was passed around and rubbed as part of a narrative or ritual that would explain his appearance and meaning. It is impossible to know what that story was about or whether he was deity, an avatar to the spirit world, part of a creation story or a human whose experiences on a journey through the cosmos to communicate with spirits caused this transformation. Obviously, the story involved humans and animals. Lion Man is made from a mammoth tusk, the largest animal in the environment of that time and depicts the fiercest predator, a lion, now extinct, that was about 30 centimetres taller than a modern African lion and had no mane. Distinct from other animals through their use of tools and fire, humans were nonetheless dependent on some animals for food while needing to protect themselves from predators. Perhaps this hybrid helped people to come to terms with their place in nature on a deeper, religious level or in some way to transcend or reshape it.
Archaeological discoveries in other caves in this region include small sculptures as shown in the British Museum’s 2013 exhibition Ice Age art: arrival of the modern mind. They were found in caves with large quantities of stone tools and animal bones that indicate people lived in the shelter of the daylight areas of these sites for repeated periods of time.
Stadel Cave, where the Lion Man was found, is different. It faces north and does not get the sun. It is cold and the density of debris accumulated by human activities is much less than at other sites. This was not a good place to live. Lion Man was found in a dark inner chamber, carefully put away in the darkness with only a few perforated arctic fox teeth and a cache of reindeer antlers nearby. These characteristics suggest that Stadel Cave was only used occasionally as a place where people would come together around a fire to share a particular understanding of the world articulated through beliefs, symbolised in sculpture and acted out in rituals.
Lion Man is the oldest known evidence for religious beliefs and Stadel Cave suggests that believing and belonging have a deep history crucial to human societies and originating long before writing. In 2017, UNESCO acknowledged Stadel Cave and other Swabian localities as World Heritage Sites of importance to all humanity and now Ulm Museum has loaned this important sculpture to the British Museum for the exhibition.”
“The candidate for Chancellor of Germany Alice Weidel has called for the restoration of relations and economic ties with Russia The election program of Alternative for Germany includes points about the need to lift sanctions on Russia to allow free trade. Additionally, according to members of the AfD, it is necessary to repair the Nord Stream pipeline, which supplied Russian gas to Europe. “We want to end the sanctions policy, which primarily harms our country,” Weidel said.

Boris Johnson put mass uncontrolled immigration on steroids and should never be allowed anywhere near frontline politics again.
I thought, when he was not nominated (plainly at his own request) for a fake peerage that Johnson, aka “Boris”-idiot, had it in mind to stand for leader again.
Were Johnson to get some sympathetic Con MP to stand down in his favour, Johnson might well win a safe-seat by-election.
Why would any MP do that? In return for a promise of getting a peerage later. That would not require Johnson to be Prime Minister, because the Leader of the Opposition also has peerage-nomination rights.
Johnson would then have to wait (probably) until November 2025 before at least 15% of Con MPs send in letters of no-confidence in “Carpetbagger Kemi” Badenoch. That means 18 MPs, as matters stand. That would happen. Con MPs know that Kemi Badenoch is a total turn-off for most voters, sure to lose the next general election and, thus, a number of seats.
Then, all Johnson would need would be a small number of MPs (in the 2024 leadership election, the number was 10 MPs) to nominate him as a candidate (quite likely possible).
Opinion polls of 2024 Con-voting people show that Johnson is far more popular (despite his evident unfitness to hold office, despite his total incompetence) than Kemi Badenoch.
I may even place a bet on “Boris” to be next Con Party leader. The odds, though, are not too generous, below 5/1. Maybe I shall lose my money elsewhere…
As Matt Goodwin says, though, Johnson was disastrous as PM (and, before that, as Foreign Secretary), and at present the Con Party is hovering around or below 20% in the opinion polls.
“Healthcare”. So Orwellian. If defenders of abortion were really sure of their position they would admit that terminating a pregnancy means the ending of a human life but instead hide behind weasal words.

“Nearly every other day I learn that someone I know in Wiltshire, in Westminster or in my wider Conservatiive network has left the party – and about half the time they join Reform too. Today two have jumped. Give it time, say Tory diehards but even under new leadership the Conservative Party simply isn’t healing or recovering. Its decline is continuing. I am not finding Reform membership easy but don’t regret my move nor leaving a party that is now so divided and adrift. It’s sad to watch.“
“I don’t know one lifetime Tory that still supports them personally, i wont ever vote for them again. They’re bad coalition where no meaningful policy happens, migration we had since Cameron was mostly low skill we are paying 70 yr high tax to subside that migration . Waste is massive, they were funding most of the things they said they didn’t support. to be honest Tim looking at the state of this country I’m wondering did they do anything in 14 years, everything in England is broken, GPS, dentists, NHS, councils, police, judiciary, child services, mental health services, prisons, social care, we have gone backward and it’s frightening to watch.“
Semi-literate, but surely accurate.
It has been forecast in the past and not quite happened, but I truly feel that the once-great Conservative Party is now finally going the same way as the old 19thC/20thC Liberal Party. Terminal decline.
The Con vote in (?) 2029 (and assuming that a nuclear war has not happened by then anyway) may be as low as 15%.
It would also mean Reform UK getting 330 Commons seats, an overall majority, and thus being able to form the next Government of the UK. If that then ended badly, social nationalism could finally arise. God mote it be.

Earlier today, I caught literally the last 30-60 seconds of an interview (I think on Sky News) with, I also think, a junior Labour minister whose name I did not get. What a typically smug, pleased-with-himself bastard! A System political drone with, in the short piece I saw, nothing to say beyond the sort of bland propaganda soundbites all too common over the past 25 years.
No wonder the British people are turning off from System parties and politicians. Reform UK is but the next step on the road, not the ultimate destination. Anger and frustration is growing.
“British Legacy Media in meltdown mode after JD Vance Speech “Again he’s talking rubbish” “Because of Russian interference” The pundits dismiss Vance’s accurately poignant comments as “rubbish & nonsense” and continue to indulge in complete fantasies. Thankfully people are now starting to see straight through these charlatans.“
Ecce the state of “British” political discourse in the msm or “legacy mass media”— a discussion between incredibly ignorant and uncultured scribbler Susie Boniface (the so-called and self-styled “Fleet Street Fox”), and some black woman whom I know not; no idea who she might be.
Those two, and a young woman presenter also unknown to me, “discuss” (entirely tendentiously), the geopolitical consequences of the comments and policies of Trump, J.D. Vance, and Putin. Risible.
That may or may not explain the drastic fall in birth-rates in the more advanced countries, but how to explain the fall of the birth-rate in places such as China, and even India?
In fact, the only regions (with a couple of small exceptions) where the population is still growing via human births (as distinct from mass immigration) are Africa (mainly sub-Saharan Africa, black Africa) and Pakistan/Afghanistan.
Look at the graphic from 2020 (which is already out of date, and the trends noted even more stark in 2025). Replacement of population only happens around or slightly higher than 2.1 children born per woman (average). People used to talk, in the 1960s, 1970s, about the average British family in their modest suburban house and “with 2.4 children”.
Look now. The birth-rate of Europeans is well below replacement rate. UK around 1.5.
That is true (see graphic) even in France and Sweden, whose higher birth-rates are entirely by reason of the invasion by blacks and browns (i.e. children born to the invaders).
I do not know whether the “birth-control in the water” scenario is true, or to what extent, and whether that is deliberate or accidental, and to what extent, if at all, deliberate.
An alternative explanation for the fact that only in the most backward regions (Africa and Pakistan/Afghanistan, parts of the Middle East) are births now well beyond replacement level might be that only the most backward discarnate souls are not now, or have not been relatively recently on the Earth plane. Only or mostly the Africans and south-west Asians now flock into incarnation, to experience the civilization at its height (in some ways).
That may portend the end of our present civilization quite soon.
What the world needs is for a quintessence of the advanced peoples to create a nucleus of Aryan or post-Aryan people, and for that nucleus to create a relatively small number of families who, in turn, can be the seed of a people who, in their turn, can create the basis for a much later super-culture based on —in the correct sense— a super-race.
Most Europeans of today are descended from only three men of the Bronze Age. Worth remembering that fact.
JD Vance is saying out loud what millions of European people are thinking. We are losing our nations through mass uncontrolled immigration, broken borders, censorship, and an elite class that no longer represents the values and voice of the Forgotten Majority

Was just indulging, again, in a favourite pointless (?) occupation, namely looking at street scenes via Google Earth Street View.
Fascinating how areas change over time.
I notice that a building between Whitehall and the river, once used by part of MI5, and also other government bodies, is now a luxury hotel charging some £600+ per night: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corinthia_Hotel_London.
The close-nearby (and 4*) Royal Horseguards Hotel, which I have visited a couple of times, though only the bar, and which is a good hotel with views of the Thames from many of the rooms, currently charges about £200+ per night, a third as much as the Corinthia.
Well, while the whole Russia-Ukraine-NATO situation is now cast into the hazard, there can be no doubt that, with Trump’s accession, the Kiev regime is on the back foot.
I notice, though, that the usual NWO/ZOG voices are now talking about a general European war within a short time (as little as one year from today!). How desperate they are to foment a war with Russia. As the old saying goes, “be careful what you wish for”. A war with Russia would probably result in the annihilation of much of the Europe we know, including much of the UK (if not all).
High-ranking officials from Russia and the United States are reportedly set to hold talks in Saudi Arabia next week to prepare for a potential meeting between the leaders of the two nations, according to Bloomberg:https://t.co/gZhoshoFSBpic.twitter.com/UX8j4OHPND

“Cash-strapped” NHS Trusts spent £13.5 million on “diversity and equality” jobs —some of which had higher pay than junior doctors and oversaw training in “whiteness”, “colonialism” and “allyship”.
So according to that stupid woman, the “top priority” of the EU should not be the interests or well-being of the EU or its peoples, or their prosperity, or anything other than whatever the brutal, shambolic and corrupt Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev may demand from the EU states?
Is she mad, or just another tool of NWO/ZOG? Mostly the latter, I think..

An opinion poll that should be perused closely by, inter alia, the police (including Hampshire Police, Gloucestershire Police, and Essex Police), and the “Clown” Prosecution Service, among other bodies.
I republish some of my own relevant experiences below:
“Britain’s in decline. Democracy has lost its way. Yes, many would squeal – but it’s no wonder so many of my generation believe it’s time for a dictator: CHARLIE DOWNES offers a provocative view.
Young people in the UK – born, like me, in the 21st century – are constantly told how lucky we are to have ‘freedom’.
To our parents and grandparents, steeped in the baggage of the Second World War, ‘freedom’ is the ultimate democratic right.
But many in Generation Z can see that our ‘free’ society has degenerated into instability and uncertainty.
If ‘freedom’ means being unable to afford a home, to live in overcrowded and overpriced rented accommodation, to work soulless jobs in order to pay sky-high taxes, and to have no sense of belonging or identity, perhaps freedom is not what we need.
So it’s no shock to read that a recent survey commissioned by Channel 4 found that 52 per cent of Britons aged 13 to 27 have lost faith in democracy and would welcome a dictator – a strong leader ‘who does not have to bother with parliament and elections’.
A third of my generation believe ‘the UK would be a better place if the Army was in charge’.
Other polls have found that many of us are likely to back the death penalty, while a Mail on Sunday survey this week found that two-thirds of us favour castrating sex offenders.
These reports have caused much alarm among liberal commentators – for whom democracy and the social contract are sacrosanct.
They don’t want to face the brutal truth that the social contract has been ripped up by a political class that has long refused to put the interests of ordinary British people first, or to deliver on our repeatedly expressed wishes at the ballot box – on immigration, crime, tax and much else.
Drug use, shoplifting and defrauding the state go unpunished. Millions of economically burdensome migrants from places and cultures vastly different from our own are invited in, housed and fed at our expense – and we are attacked and slurred as bigots if we complain.
As for democracy, it’s obvious from the visible decline in our country – which worsened after the 2008 financial crash and which has accelerated under Keir Starmer – that it isn’t delivering the right results.
Our supposed parliamentary rule is either an illusion, an anachronism or, if it does exist, clearly not fit for purpose.
After Labour’s landslide win last summer, it rapidly dawned on many of us who had voted for the first time that we were essentially politically impotent.
Britain is crying out for leadership that can steer the country to safety.
Gen Z’s demands are not unreasonable: fairer taxes, affordable homes, cheaper energy and an end to unlimited immigration.
We ask that everyone contributes their fair share and that crime is properly punished.
We want to trust our neighbours, and talk to them in our own language. We want a sense of identity and belonging.
Which is why, I believe, we now need decisive action: a leader who would declare a state of emergency in response to illegal migration.
Without a strong leader who can reverse deindustrialisation, neoliberal economic policy and mass immigration, our country seems condemned to a future of being riddled with crime, political strife and social unrest.
Yet perhaps, out of this ongoing catastrophe, renewal will come.
History, after all, has a way of throwing up great men or women when the hour calls for them.
…young people in particular recognise that political leaders of all parties have made an abysmal mess of running things. No wonder so many believe it’s time for a radical alternative.
It sounds drastic – because it is drastic.
But otherwise we all face the continued rule of grey, miserable politicians with grey, miserable ideas, dragging us towards disaster.
Of course, if people lack shelter, clothing, warmth, food, other needs and/or wants, then “freedom”, let alone the existing form of supposed “democracy”, will not seem of the most pressing importance.
One has to wonder why the Daily Mail is allowing such views, those of this Charlie Downes, to be blasted so explosively on its pages. It seems to me that the main reason is that the Conservative Party is as good as dead among the vast majority of the electorate, and the Labour Party is in a similar condition except that it is still psychologically embedded in the mentality of the voters of much of the North of England and, also, most of the blacks and browns vote Labour en masse, and they are now 20% of the whole electorate, much more in the great cities.
Labour support among white people (the people formerly known as British) is no more than about 10% (at most), in reality. Maybe only 5%.
The Daily Mail’s owners, and others, now look for a party neither socialist nor national socialist/social nationalist but which may capture mass support. Reform UK.
A quasi-dictatorial period may be necessary in the UK, but only if the policies are those I have promulgated on the blog over the past 8 years. Basically social national policies. Anything else is useless and wrongheaded.

“Before us, I see two possible futures: One where the United Kingdom is remembered as a cautionary tale — the lone state that took the doctrine of modern liberalism (mass immigration, social egalitarianism, net zero) to its logical conclusion, and descended into poverty, social unrest, ethnoreligious balkanisation, and civil war. Britain gave birth to liberalism, after all, so in a way this would be quite a fitting end. The other is one in which a new, daring elite forgoes all niceties and brings order to the British Isles. Perhaps we are seen as a pariah state for a while, having gone to war with modern liberalism — but when all is said and done, our nation is secure. I know which one I prefer.”

“The Conservative Party remains in complete denial. It thinks Reform will soon disappear and voters will forget the Tory years of broken promises and national decline. When will the once great party of Churchill and Thatcher wake up and draft a plan to put its house in order? The country still hasn’t been given even the beginnings of an explanation for why the party failed so comprehensively in the painful years of May, Boris, Truss and Sunak. Losing 251 MPs didn’t do the trick. Reform overtaking the Conservative Party in membership and opinion poll strength hasn’t shaken Badenoch or her throwback shadow cabinet. Even an exodus of donors has provoked little signs of life or resolve. The top tier of the party still thinks they’re the natural party of govt and that Labour unpopularity will eventually restore sense to the vast bulk of former Tory voters. Most Tory commentators are going along with this complacency. The lack of urgency and the modesty of Badenoch’s first 100 days really shocks me. I am beginning to contemplate that the party’s decline might be terminal.“

According to Electoral Calculus, that equates to about the following Commons seats: Reform 201, Labour 189, Con 131, LibDems 67, Greens 4. The only possible governments would be Reform as a weak minority one, or Reform backed up by the Conservatives, or a “Grand Coalition” of System parties— LibLabCon.

I missed the reports of the recent death of farmer Tony Martin, imprisoned in 1999 for having shot some “travellers” (Irish tinkers) who had targeted his rundown farmhouse by night.
Martin was eventually released after having spent 3 years in prison, his initial conviction for murder having been downgraded on appeal to manslaughter. There had been a huge public outcry supporting Martin. I myself recall having posted a supportive postcard to him from Turkey when he was still sitting in prison. 2001. I wonder whether he ever received it.
I was unaware in 1999 and 2001 that Martin had (probably in the 1970s) supported the National Front [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK)], and was related by marriage to Andrew Fountaine [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Fountaine, an interesting if slightly alarming character whom I once saw, and heard speak (at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in 1975, when I was aged 18-19).
Martin should never have been prosecuted or even questioned (except pro-forma).
Hero.

A health minister who hopes pensioners will be dead before the next election and a chancellor who withdraws the winter fuel allowance, Labour are a disgrace! 😡😡😡
Starmer and Andrew Gwynne may loath pensioners and want them dead before the next election, but they seem to have forgotten the millions of people coming towards retirement have had the winter fuel allowance snatched away from them and won’t forgive. Labour are dead in the water.
Jack Lopresti, former Italian ice-cream salesman and sometime TA (part-time) private soldier [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] and MP (2010-2024) is in fact not “fighting” in Ukraine. He is sitting at a desk in Kiev.
Both Lopresti and his ex-wife, Andrea Jenkyns, lost their Commons seats in 2024. They were both members of Conservative Friends of Israel.
Lopresti seems rather unintelligent, and obviously has little idea of geopolitics, history, or anything else much. I expect he is being paid for his present role, and paid more than the peanuts pay, paid in local rubbish-money, that the Ukrainian soldiers get (when paid at all).
Incidentally, nearly 6 years ago, I penned an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns:
There are two (or three) main arguments against mass non-European immigration into the UK. One is both racial and cultural, meaning also societal, the other is economic. For me, the economic argument is not the primary one, but it is (obviously) hugely significant. The swamping of this country by non-whites is making us poorer and, until stopped and reversed, will continue to make us poorer as a country, as a population and, particularly as British individuals.
Do you trust Kemi Badenoch and the Conservative Party will lower immigration if they are returned to power?

“Just 1 in 20 visas that Britain handed out to immigrants in 2022-2023 went to people who are likely to make a net contribution to the economy”. https://t.co/amLAYUsp5d
There is a constant attempt in the msm to downplay immigration as a social and political issue, as if it is some kind of side-issue or non-issue. Far from it. It impacts every other social and political issue, from housing and water supply to policing, law and order, educational standards, transport, pay, State benefits (including pensions)— you name it.
Indeed, the System still tries to pretend that immigration is beneficial, both socially and economically, despite the enormous weight of evidence to the contrary. The level of deception and, on the part of the System drones themselves, self-deception, is almost incredible.
So we in the UK still have “compulsory blacks” in pretty much every TV drama, “soap”, TV ad, panel discussion etc. “Blacks with Everything”, to adapt the name of the well-known play by Arnold Wesker. I wrote about it some 6 years ago on the blog. That despite the fact that actual blacks (Africans, West Indians/Afro-Caribbean) make up “only” about 5% or 6% of the whole UK population.
The propaganda is not aimed, primarily, at persons of my age (68) or indeed those in their 50s, 40s, or even 30s, but at “the young” and, especially, at children whose critical faculties are relatively or completely undeveloped.
The aim of that sort of propaganda is to normalize both the multikulti society and, even more so, inter-racial relationships, resulting in mixed-race children and, ultimately, in an entirely mixed-race society (except at the top level), as provided for by the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan and, at least impliedly, by the Protocols of Zion:
A lot of fuss (whichever side you are on) over one runway at one major airport. Meanwhile, the fake “green” agenda has shut down much-needed power stations, damaged the automotive industry, interferes in various ways in the lives of tens of millions of British people, and for what? Really, for what?
In the words of Fleet Street in the past, “you read it here first!”. This blog predicted that Starmer and his cabal, once in government, would [pretend to] “solve” the “small boats” invasion by simply approving, whether in France or elsewhere, the asylum applications of 95% of the invaders. Likewise the problems of accommodating the invaders in the UK.
The migrant-invaders are, increasingly, being given accommodation across the country in council houses, other social housing, and B%B accommodation paid for by local councils (local people, in other words) and by taxpayers generally. They are, thus, less visible than when all concentrated in hotels. They simply become part of “the UK’s housing crisis” almost all of which is, in reality, an immigration crisis.

Very true. Apart from which, and despite the flaws adherent to all empires, the British Empire was great and, overall, or on the whole, something positive.
You only have to look at any TV quiz show, such as The Chase, Mastermind, or even University Challenge, to see that most English/British people have no real sense of their own history.
For many, it comes down to a few simple or cartoon views of a mere handful of periods such as Industrial Revolution, Victorian era, Henry VIII/Elizabeth I/Spanish Armada, maybe the English Civil War, and of course WW2 (largely, the Battle of Britain air war) with a few other individuals and events standing out as historical stalagmites, and usually thought of as isolated cameos, akin to the Swiss legend of Wilhelm Tell having to shoot an apple off the head of his son.
Robin Hood, William the Conqueror and the Battle of Hastings, Drake, maybe Waterloo, and Churchill (as indomitable hero leader, not as the warmonger and hopeless strategist who destroyed —thanks to US and Soviet alliances— not only the German Reich, but his own British Empire and those of all other European powers.
No wonder that so many silly people, if asked their views of the current migration-invasion, reply along the lines of “we have always had immigration— Romans, Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Huguenots...” etc, as if the invasion of this country by non-Europeans, in the millions, indeed the tens of millions, is effectively the same!
I have occasionally wondered what motivates idiots such as Socialist Worker Party demonstrators. Time after time (over the past 50+ years— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialist_Workers_Party_(UK)), the said idiots turn up in the cold rain, wave their placards, shout slogans or insults, and achieve exactly nothing. For half a century. According to Wikipedia, there are about 2,500 paid up members, but the average turnout seems to be about a dozen.
Still, to expect reason from the unreasonable is itself unreasonable.

Carpetbagger Kemi should scuttle back to the USA or Nigeria.
Acc. to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would translate into Labour 300 seats, Cons 119, Reform 113, LibDems 71 (Greens 4, SNP 12 etc). So a Labour minority government propped up by SNP/LibDem/PC votes.
Still, with such a split, a point or two can make all the difference. One point less for Labour, one point more for Reform, and the picture looks very different: Lab 260, Reform 157, Cons 109, LibDems 71. The result would be a weaker Lab minority govt. even more reliant on LibDem (etc) support. Also, Reform rather than Cons as official Opposition.

“Only 22% of Brits say they approve of Keir Starmer. Look at this chart. Opinium tonight.”
22%. About the same proportion of all eligible voters that voted Labour last year: in rough terms, 4 out of every 20 eligible to vote. (Cons 3 out of 20, Reform 2 out of every 20, LibDems 2 out of 20, Greens 1 out of 20; “non-voting”—8 out of every 20).
