This week, a narrow victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 5/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 4, 6, and 10. I really should have got numbers 4 and 10, but there it is.
“Two amphibious warships are set to be ‘mothballed’ in a move critics have said could spell ‘the beginning of the end’ for the Royal Marines, as the Navy tries to tackle a sailor shortage crisis.
HMS Albion and HMS Bulwark could be retired from active service under plans put forward by Defence Secretary Grant Shapps, according to The Times.
The plans would be designed to help deal with the manpower crisis in the Royal Navy, freeing up more than 200 sailors for other ships – most likely the force’s new fleet of Type 26 frigates when they come into service.
But the move has been slammed by critics who say the ships are crucial to the functioning of the elite commando force, with experts saying their retirement would weaken the Marines by diminishing their ability to storm beaches from the sea.”
[Daily Mail]
Ha ha! In what world does Britain presently need the “ability to storm beaches“? Not the world where the only “storming” of beaches is by migrant-invaders invading the UK.
As far as I am concerned, the armed forces have virtually no useful role in a Britain becoming totally alien, and which soon will have nothing its inhabitants will wish to defend anyway.
Come to think of it, I was just watching an episode of Spooks, a TV series I did not see when it was first broadcast. That led me to thoughts around what use is MI5. The damage (possibly mortal) being done to the UK is not by spies infiltrating government offices, and not by anarchists or others wanting to assassinate MPs etc, but by a tsunami of immigration, and by the cultural trashing of our mass media, publishing, schools etc. About all that, MI5 has nothing to say, and even less to do.

More “diversity”.
How on Earth can we create a more advanced society without —without creating— a more advanced population? Instead, the UK is nosediving to demographic disaster. The overall IQ of the population is sliding, and has been for some time. Not surprising when you look at specimens such as that in the above photograph.

“Britain’s youngest ever female murderer who stabbed a stranger to death when she was just 12-years-old could be freed in days, it has been reported.
Sharon Carr, dubbed the ‘Devil’s Daughter’, knifed 18-year-old Katie Rackliff 32 times in an unprovoked attack as the teenager walked home from a night out in June 1992.
The hairdresser’s murder went unsolved for two years as police officers hunted an adult man rather than the child.
It was only after she attacked another schoolgirl with a knife in Camberley, Surrey, and bragged about killing Katie while in a young offender institute that she was arrested.“

Kiev-regime Ukraine is one of the most rotten countries in the world. Even in the 1990s, that was so. I was told in 1998 by a Brit who knew it well (I think that he was probably an SIS officer) that an unpleasant American whom I had in fact met several times, a lawyer from Virginia with offices in both Kiev and London, and who was (maybe still is) well-connected with the Kiev government and business circles, regularly paid teenage Ukrainian girls —the same age as his own daughter— to wear nothing but stiletto heels and walk up and down on his back.
I have no reason to doubt what I was told, though by the same token I have no other evidence that such was the case.
The Soviet Union, always very flawed in terms of human ethics, fell apart morally from the 1960s, and what we saw in terms of gangsterism, Jewish “oligarchs” in Russia, other degeneracy, was all an outcome of that in the 1990s and since then.

It’s a shame the Telegraph don’t mention the elephant in the room which everyone else’s can see – the vaccine harms. Apart from that it’s a good article , they can’t listen to the voters as they are bought and paid for.https://t.co/8mk54HIFKJ
“Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic “vaccine” dangers are an important issue, but not as important as the continuing mass immigration migration-invasion, the Jew-Zionist stranglehold over the msm, politics, finance, and legal system; also, not so important as the necessity to realign geopolitically, more towards Russia, less towards the USA.
The general tenor of the article is right, though. The System in the UK, vis-a-vis the British people, is now pretty much where the old Soviet and satellite system was in the 1970s/1980s vis-a-vis the populations of Russia, East Germany, Poland etc.

Just thinking about how this latest news about Trump and Melania will play politically. Already I have seen opinions to the effect that Trump does not really have “the virus” and that Boris-idiot likewise never had it. Maybe so, but my inclination is to believe that both had/have it.
In respect of Trump, what matters is whether he recovers or not. If not, then (obviously) he will not win the upcoming election because he will be dead. In that event, Mike Pence would have every chance of beating Joe Biden and winning the Presidency for the Republican Party.
The more likely event is that Trump will recover. In the world as a whole, only one person has died so far out of every 8,000. In the USA, there have been (as the BBC and Sky keep telling us, usually without giving the per capita context…) about 200,000 or so deaths; that, though, is out of a population of about 330,000,000. 1 death out of every 1,500 or so of the population. In respect of known (tested) cases, nearly 5 million cases and, of those, 96% (4,737,000 approx) recovered; about 4% died: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/
Trump is 74, overweight etc, and so in a generally more vulnerable than average category. However, the odds are that he will recover. So how does that play?
In my view, Trump getting “the virus” and then recovering would boost his standing considerably. It would validate what he has always said, and which is after all backed by the statistics: that in the USA, 96% of those who actually have had “Coronavirus” have recovered. Thus, while this virus is certainly a major public health threat, it is not the plague, not the Black Death, and society must not be shut down because of its existence.
Boris Johnson please note…
The US election is close, and not so easy to predict. The Electoral College electoral system is very odd, a very 18th Century idea of democracy. Each state has a number of Electoral College votes, based on the amount of population. Whichever candidate wins the most votes in each state gets all the Electoral College votes for that state (with two exceptions, Maine and Nebraska): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College
Thus (as with the British electoral system based on MPs elected from constituencies), it is quite possible for a Presidential candidate to get a minority of the popular vote yet win the Presidency because that candidate has won a majority of the Electoral College votes. That is in fact what happened in 2016: Trump won a minority of the popular vote, but a majority of the Electoral College vote.
The bookmakers (in the UK) are making Joe Biden a close favourite over Trump, but it is still close enough to be uncertain. The demographics (increasing non-white populations in the US) favour the Democrats, but the majority is still small, though growing.
Superficially, Biden seems to have the election half-won, but I am not sure that Trump can be written off (assuming that he does not succumb to “the virus”). Trump’s handling of the virus situation is a major card for the Democrats. If Trump himself, at his age and in his condition of health and fitness, can pull through, that must strengthen his case on the virus and how to handle it, and would tend to back his preference for fully re-opening the economy.
There again, many white Americans especially will have been looking at the scenes of near-anarchy and even near civil war in some cities, and wondering whether Trump is not a better bet than Biden and the Democrats. After the recent “debate” shouting match, when (from what I have heard) Biden seemed almost ga-ga, this election may be very close indeed.
[Update, 29 August 2023: my view now on “Boris” and Trump getting the Covid virus is that they probably did, but that it was blown up out of proportion in order to increase the reach of the fear propaganda, and that neither was ever in real danger].

I happened to see this video, made in July 2020:
This one too:
I myself would never waste time “debating” with such [redacted because of the lack of freedom of expression in the UK]. In fact, I would not bother to “debate” with most white British people either. I am here to put forward my own views, ideas and policies, uncompromisingly. “Debates” tend to produce heat but no light, as on the pathetic BBC Question Time. A show for the entertainment of people with little better to do.
I know that I am not alone in noticing that TV ads in the UK are now even more than heretobefore the vehicle for racemixing propaganda. Almost every ad now is replete with blacks and other non-whites, as well as the TV “families” with the white (often blonde) woman, the black man, and the mixed-race children.
Who do you think is behind all this? You know who…(((the you-know-who))).
All part of “the Plan” (the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan)…
Those people who say “I have lost a son/daughter/father/mother/grandparent/significant other to Coronavirus, so please do XYZ, and do not be COVID-19 deniers” are like people who say “I have lost [whoever] because of a traffic accident, so please never drive a car except at below 10 mph, and do not be traffic accident deniers“. Except that no-one sane ever says the latter, because such a suggestion would be seen as wildly disproportionate, as well as importing emotional blackmail into what should be a reasoned argument.
Pleasant sentiments, but I noticed that that tweet was retweeted by Jew-Zionist fanatic and Twitter troll “@frankiescar” (real name Andrew Roberjot, apparently a failed businessman of some kind and now a “legal people” groupie, though not legally-qualified, I believe), someone so unpleasant that he actually turned up to gloat when I appeared at the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal (I was disbarred thanks to a pack of Jews, most of whom were known to him): https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/07/13/when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/
That is, so to speak, “very Twitter”, people who tweet or retweet all sorts of beautiful sentiments, while behaving like shits. Virtue-signallers. Fakes.
A pseudonymous but obviously Jew-Zionist Twitter account, tied in with the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” criminals, and making dark, if obscure, threats. In fact, I seem to recall “@badscooter” making the very same or very similar threats as long ago as 2012 or thereabouts. This is the kind of tweeter that the Metropolitan Police should investigate. If not, perhaps someone with money can discover his identity via civil litigation (e.g. via methods such as a Norwich Pharmacal order: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwich_Pharmacal_order).
Meanwhile, badscooter’s Twitter friend and fellow criminal, “@nathanjoseph198”, has just gone up the Twitter chimney: https://twitter.com/nathanjoseph198.

Britain is a country the governmental policies of which are driven largely by lobbies: the Jew-Zionist lobby, the subsidized-farming lobby, the banking lobby, and so on; in this case, the defence procurement and military lobby.
