"Of the 84,000 people who received initial decisions on their asylum claims, almost half of them, 47%, were granted protection and allowed to stay in the country."https://t.co/t5Xtins5i0
As noted previously on the blog. In fact, in the end, about 80% of the supposed “asylum-seekers” are allowed to stay. Starmer-stein will make sure that that figure rises to 90%, and even the ones that eventually fail to make a case will, most of them, not be deported.
Under the now completely outdated rules and principles established after WW2, there are quite literally hundreds of millions of people who might make out a case for asylum in the UK, the state the world is in. Are our so-called “leaders”, the System political idiots, going to allow them all in? What do you think our society will look like then (before it collapses)?

"In the Netherlands, the net lifetime costs of asylum-seekers are estimated to be £400,000 per migrant while one study puts the annual cost of non-Western migration to the Dutch people at an eye-watering €17 billion."https://t.co/U5srndOvjj
All so that civilized European countries can waste the resources that should be going to the future of those countries on the maintenance —forever— of million upon million non-European parasites and their offspring. Scarcely any will make a positive contribution (even leaving aside the racial-demographic aspects); most will be (and are) at best parasites, at worst criminal or terroristic.
I used to think fears of open sectarian conflict, as a consequence of mass migration, were overblown. But the conflagrations in LA and NI, 5,000 miles apart, could be worrying precursors to more serious confrontations in the future. https://t.co/6s6pqVviWGpic.twitter.com/25LvVdDKzo
It's likely to happen eventually. Once you drill into the data, almost all conflicts are between genetically distinct people groups, and the UK has been increasing the average genetic distance between its residents.
The concept of the creation of a “super-race” does not (only) mean that one existing race rules other existing races, but (also) means the gradual change, or sometimes less gradual change, from an existing race to a higher race-form, one which can be the basis or foundation for a quantum leap in human evolution.
True enough, but the main attack on free speech in the UK comes from the Jewish or Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, and I never hear Matt Goodwin or Farage (etc) saying anything about that.
At what point does the encroaching slow-motion dictatorship programme become impossible to counter by merely “peaceful” means?

“Maria Zakharova ridiculed British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy’s claim that “the British-Ukrainian partnership goes back thousands of years.” ” The roots of this friendship go back to the foot of the Egyptian pyramids? Why so little? They even hunted brontosauruses together ,” Zakharova joked.
During a visit to Kiev, David Lemmy stated that “Kiev princesses were marrying British princes” a thousand years ago.”
Lammy personifies the old Russian proverb, “an ape in a silk suit is still an ape“…(incidentally, that proverb was not originally meant to reference blacks, because there were none in Russia until the 20thC and even today they are few; it was basically metaphorical).
Here is “diversity-hire”, thick-as-two-short-planks, Lammy making a fool of himself once again, this time on Celebrity Mastermind:
Ha ha! Evergreen…
Incidentally, Ukraine only became a nominally independent state in 1991, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Its entire previous history was as part of the Russian state or its predecessor, Rus, though parts of Western Ukraine were within the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries.
Lammy is a total embarrassment as Foreign Secretary, but Starmer cannot easily sack him, having appointed him. Why? Because he is black. Simply that.
“The NHS has advertised almost a dozen ‘woke‘ jobs within the last few weeks, including one equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) role paying almost £123,000, MailOnline can reveal.
The recruitment drive comes days after Health Secretary Wes Streeting warned diversity and inclusion in the NHS has gone too far with some staff now promoting ‘anti-whiteness’ within the health service.
The Associate Dean with responsibility for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion role, advertised by NHS England, is based in the South West and comes with a salary of £122,470.
The salary is equivalent to the entry-level pay of up to three NHS doctors or four nurses.
According to the job description, the successful candidate can work from home 60 per cent of the time and will be responsible for ensuring medical students from different backgrounds have equal opportunities.”
[Daily Mail]
Wrong in every way. In any case, white English/British staff should have greater opportunities, because they are part of the UK’s proper folk-community.
“An asylum seeker from Pakistan has been awarded almost £100,000 after complaining that she was ‘treated like a criminal’ when she overstayed in the UK.
Nadra Almas fought a legal battle against the Home Office to remain in the UK, stating that she would face persecution if she was forced to return home on religious grounds.“
[Daily Mail]
British people find it hard to access peanuts-level State benefits, but a foreign migrant-invader, who entered this country on a fraudulent basis, is given £100,000! She should not even be here! You really could not make up what is happening in this country.
Incidentally, look at the readers’ comments on that Daily Mail report. It is only a thousand or more years of slow accretion of patience, and belief in a society under law, that is preventing a socio-political explosion in the UK (so far).

If you go into a shop in, say, Egypt, a small shop that in the UK (if owned by real British people) would probably have one or two people, maybe three at most, but probably one or two, working there, you will find that the owner has half a dozen people working there, probably related to him in some way. Open long hours, perhaps, and the people there doing little individually. Paid peanuts, of course. Likewise, offices.
I understand that India and other such poor countries are similar.
Non-crime “hate” incidents are, ipso facto, not crimes. If the police continue to be incapable of doing their proper job, and if they continue to behave like a blundering, hopeless, poundshop KGB, snooping on people’s opinions, tweets, blogs etc, they deserve to be, when the UK has a real government, dismissed and put to work as forced labour.
On those figures, the House of Commons might look like this: Reform UK 256, Labour 217, LibDems 78, Conservatives 43, Greens 6 (SNP 19 etc).
That would mean either a weak minority Reform government, or an exceptionally-weak Labour minority government backed by LibDems, SNP and other minor parties.
Arguably the most interesting aspect of the latest polling is the apparent continuing collapse of the Conservative Party (predicted, of course, on this blog). Not only 4th placed, after the LibDems in 3rd, but with little better than half as many MPs as the LibDems.
I read today that CCHQ may be unable to pay the rent on its office building. I would not be surprised to see quite a few Con Party MPs now jump to Reform in the hope of being accepted as candidates for the seats they currently occupy as “Conservatives”. I wonder how many will be deemed acceptable. If they delay too long crossing the line, they may not be accepted.
I was interested to read that article on the Conservative Home website. The comments were 95% or more pro-Reform and anti-Con Party.
“Blimey. Simon Myerson KC chattin’ about other barristers apologising and showing a lack of judgement. A judge decided Myerson engaged in “disgraceful abuse” of me and I’m still waiting for Myerson’s apology. It’s all covered in my next S-stack post out tomorrow. Link in bio.”
[James Wilson]
You will get no “apology” from Myerson. “They” always like to extract “apologies” from their enemies or opponents; they see that as victory (and humiliation for those “apologizing”).
Their instincts are, of course, not those of the European.
As Corbyn noted, years ago, “they” also usually lack a sense of irony, likewise the ability to see themselves.
Myerson was sacked as a p/t judge (“Recorder”) last year for his inability to stop savagely insulting others online. In short, he was found to lack the proper judgment required of those who aspire to sit on the Bench.

Saw two silly twits on Sky News earlier, being interviewed separately. The first was someone called General Shirreff (retired) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shirreff], who thinks that war with Russia is all but inevitable, that the UK should double or triple the amount it spends on armed services in all ways, and that it is essential for the UK to back up “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev).
I find it disturbing that an officer previously at such a high rank and with such heavy responsibilities until retirement should actually think that Britain should embroil itself even further in the brutal, shambolic, and corrupt Kiev-regime war, and try to confront Russia in Eastern Europe.
Come to that, the UK should also have steered clear of a number of other late-19thC and early 20thC conflicts: the Balkan war(s) of the 1990s, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Libyan uprising.
President Kennedy said, of General Curtis LeMay [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_LeMay], that, in a war requiring an all-out attack, you would want LeMay commanding the first wave of the bomber force, but that he was the last person who should decide whether there should be a war at all. Having heard General Shirreff’s attempt at geopolitical argument, I rather think that that is also my view of General Shirreff.
Any war with Russia would leave what is left of this country, and worth defending, in ruins. Irradiated ruins, over which those of us who survive will crawl in misery. Nein danke!
The said Chalk, who lost his Commons seat in 2024, was briefly Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice under Sunak. My thoughts about him, having now heard him (I was only peripherally aware of his existence, previously) relate more to his ideas about how to fund the justice system than to his actual decisions when in high office. He wants even more cuts to the “welfare” (social security) budget, and for that money to be directed to the courts, legal professions, prisons etc. A rehash of 2010-2015 “austerity” nonsense, in short, but with money given to the legal and justice system (and defence). He seemed a smug bastard, rather full of himself. Again, nein danke!
There comes a point when many people wonder whether we still have much worth “defending”. In fact, I think that many have already reached such a conclusion, which is why recruitment to the armed forces has become a thorny issue. I saw an ad for the Army today, showing an entirely black platoon in the field. Has the Army given up trying to recruit real British people?

It is tempting, of course, simply to label Keir Starmer as an idiot, and in many respects he is, but one must never forget that behind “elected” dictator Starmer stands NWO/ZOG, as indeed the whole global Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby.

“*An open letter to Donald Trump from Uri Geller: “You have the power to bomb Iran. Use it!”*
Dear Mr President Welcome back, and congratulations on your epic victory! You have a lot to fix, though my paranormal powers tell me you will have a phenomenal presidency in which you will achieve many great things for #America and the world.
I will be right about this, in the same way I have been proven right many times in my life about events before they have happened. For 50 years I have been the world’s most investigated psychic and now the future of our planet could depend on what I am about to say directly to you. Mr President, you are the only one who can avert a catastrophe – but you HAVE to act. Everyone in the world saw how unbelievably close you came to death on that stage in #Butler – and everyone in the world saw how God saved your life. I am not religious but I am convinced God performed a miracle witnessed by millions in order to give you a vital mission.
Mr President, in 2018 you did a courageous thing in the face of huge opposition, by withdrawing from the #nuclear treaty. Your wise decision set back Iran’s nuclear programme by years and put its tyrannical regime on a trajectory towards collapse. Tragically this was undone by the weakest, most duplicitous administration America has ever had – and the results are clear to see: the Middle East is now in flames, and Iran is speeding towards a nuclear bomb.
With my powers of remote viewing – and do not forget, I was used for my abilities by the #CIA – I can see deep inside Iran’s nuclear factories and I know exactly what they are doing. I am telling you: #Iran is building a nuclear weapon. This is not speculation. They are doing it right now!
Mr President, we do not have much time left. If Iran gets the bomb then the world is finished! I see terrifying visions of what will happen if this apocalyptic regime is not stopped. #Israel will be first – and America will be second. Make no mistake – destroying America is Iran’s ultimate goal.
A nuclear attack on Israel will kill millions – and an attack on America will kill many more and make the US unlivable. Radiation will last for a century, a nuclear winter will set in, food will not grow, entire species will die and life as we know it will end. Do not be fooled – Iran has the intent and will make up any lie possible to pretend it doesn’t. It will use nuclear talks as a cover to buy time. It is sometimes said that #Khamenei issued a fatwa against nuclear weapons but this is false. Khamenei is deceitful – and fatwas can be undone. He is 85 and ailing. He is a fanatical religious zealot, and the bomb is the only way he can make sure the regime will survive. I can read his mind – Khamenei wants to get it while he is still on this earth – and no-one will defy him.
Mr President, Israel was caught off-guard and had #7October. Do not be the president on whose watch Iran got nuclear weapons. Do not let it manage to even assemble a bomb! Do not let it become a North Korea, which can now not be disarmed. Strike NOW! You will never have a better opportunity. Together with Israel you must attack Iran’s nuclear sites and bomb them to pieces. I believe this is the mission for which God saved your life. Do not sit on your hands, time has almost run out. If you do not do it now, Iran will get nuclear bombs during your presidency.
This is a fact. I can see it like I have seen other events before they happened. Do you want that for your legacy? Do not forget, Iran tried to kill you! If you do not act, it will hold America to ransom. Be the president who took out this regime for the sake of humankind. You have the power. Use it. @realDonaldTrump#Trump@elonmusk#ElonMusk#MAGA#Election2024@khamenei_ir“
Geller is an interesting character. Hard to know what is pure fakery, what he at least believes he sees or intuits, and what is possibly even a MOSSAD attempt at oblique influence.
When I was at school in Berkshire (England) in the early 1970s, Geller became a sensation in the UK and internationally, and bought a large Arts and Crafts house in the nearby village of Sonning (where George and Amal Clooney, and other celebrities and famous figures, including Theresa May, now have houses).
Geller relocated back to his native Israel (occupied Palestine, if you will) in 2015.
I have read Geller’s memoirs, but am still undecided about what is real and what is fake about him. At any rate, he is even today, at age 77, a very influential figure in popular culture, something which must be of interest to MOSSAD etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uri_Geller.

That does not even include the vast numbers of non-white children born to mothers (and/or fathers) also non-white but themselves born in England.

Israel is a doomed society. We must make sure that, as it goes down, it does not drag the world into a third massive war. It must be boycotted in every way, and that includes its Western “diaspora” web.

The present UK Government is a Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment, incapable of ruling properly or usefully, and also a mouthpiece for Israel and Jew-Zionism in general.
His face is contorted with terror. ‘Get away from me,’ he begs, as three policemen drag him, shaking, towards a military recruitment desk.
Moments earlier he had been dancing to the music of one of Ukraine‘s favourite rock bands, Okean Elzy.
But now his worst nightmares are being realised. He has been caught in a round-up by one of Kyiv‘s feared military ‘press gangs’ and is almost certainly on his way to the bloody frontlines.
From the look in his eyes, it is as if he has been handed a death sentence. The moment of his arrest was captured on video by horrified onlookers who have spread the chilling footage of his abduction around the world.
But this terrified concert-goer is just one of thousands of Ukrainian men who have been evading their duty by illegally dodging the draft.
More than two and a half years since the conflict began, with the army’s death toll rising by the day, Ukraine is intensifying its efforts to crack down on conscription evaders.
Locals claim these now-viral videos of men being snatched from nightclubs and concert halls in the country’s capital are just the tip of the iceberg.
All around the nation, gyms, restaurants and bars have been the sites of targeted military raids in recent days in a desperate bid to replenish Ukraine’s frontline forces.
But the sight of young men being dragged off the streets and sent to the Eastern front provokes mixed reactions.
And the online videos compound the anxieties of men who have so far evaded the press gangs. One 42-year-old insists he does not want to ‘die for the patriotic propaganda of any country’.
He fears he will be killed or maimed if conscripted.
‘The videos of press gangs kidnapping men are signs of injustice and lawlessness, especially when it is done by people wearing masks,’ he says.
‘As a taxpayer, I have done enough for my country. I don’t believe I should have to fight.’“
[Sabrina Miller in the Daily Mail]
Sabrina Miller again, this time reporting on the press-gangs of the Zelensky regime in Kiev. Reasonably interesting, though her final words are a joke, as if she could not think of anything intelligent to say.
The fact is that the Kiev-regime front lines are crumbling. No amount of Western arms, ammunition, or money (going into the offshore accounts of the members of the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) will save the Kiev government regime, or Zelensky himself. It is doomed.
Part of the reason why the Kiev regime is doomed is because few now want to fight for it. The pathetic would-be-Rambo ex-private soldiers from the UK and USA etc have either been killed or captured, or have finished their agreed tours of duty and gone back home. No more Western mugs are volunteering. As for Ukrainians, they have either fled beyond the borders, or (as Sabrina Miller’s report says) are in hiding.
This whole “Ukraine” episode now needs to be brought to a close. Russian forces will begin a general advance in 2025, and may even take Kiev, leaving a rump Ukraine in the western part of the country, based on Lvov. I think that Russia will be satisfied with that.
Russia is many times the size of Ukraine, has several times the population; Russia, unlike Kiev-regime Ukraine, has a thriving economy, has a valuable currency, and is without dependence on foreign “aid” (or control).
Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

Quite the chart. This is progressive illiberalism in action.
Britain abolished slavery almost 200 years ago. It is completely ridiculous to expect today's taxpayers to pay reparations. If Labour goes down this route, all the while claiming they can't afford winter fuel allowance, they will be absolutely hammered

That is their “Knesset” (Parliament). A kind of Oriental bazaar.
That brings to mind a rather odd story once heard.
I was told, long ago (1980s), and by a mutual friend, that Prince Michael Gruzinski, the one-time Pretender to the Throne of Georgia, had told King Hussein of Jordan, at a London diplomatic reception in the 1970s, that he had a plan to “gas the Knesset”. Apparently, King Hussein was not very amused and politely disengaged from the conversation.
Gruzinski was an odd fellow, whom many regarded as a fake, partly because of his name (Slavonic rather than Georgian— “gruzinsky” means “Georgian” in the Russian language), but I believe that there were valid 18th/19th Century historical reasons for that, and that he was genuinely the Pretender to that now non-existent throne, for whatever that might be worth.
I do not recall having met Gruzinski, though I was told that I had, once or twice, and that he remembered meeting me (maybe in 1976 or 1977). I know little of his life, except that he had been awarded (I was told) a First from Oxford, in the days when that meant something, and that he had cut off the tip of another student’s finger while fighting a duel with real swords (not the usual sport versions). Apparently he was “rusticated” (suspended) from the University for that, though that was just what I was told. I myself have no personal knowledge of any of it.
I suppose that Gruzinski must have been about 40 in the mid-1970s, and so would have been at Oxford in the 1950s or early 1960s.
According to my source, he then more or less refused to take ordinary salaried work, and “signed on the dole”. He was eventually summoned to a bureaucratic troika of what I suppose was then called the DHSS. In those days, social security could not just be cut off at the arbitrary whim of some DHSS/DWP dogsbody as happens today.
It seems that some woman on the panel said to Gruzinsky, “are you not ashamed that, with all your educational and other advantages, you are living off the State?“, to which he is said to have replied, “no, not at all. My family have been living off the State for hundreds of years“.
Anyway, whatever the truth of Gruzinsky’s claim to the Georgian throne, he was invited, I heard, to many diplomatic receptions, including some at the Soviet Embassy.
Gruzinsky apparently worked freelance in the field of finance. When he made his startling claim to King Hussein, he had some financial deal going with “the Saudis” (I was also told), and that deal would have been worth (if I remember correctly), some £10M for him personally. You could probably say that would be about £100M in the money of 2024. That was the money that would bankroll his mad (?) “gas the Knesset” plan, if it ever existed. I have no idea. It does sound doubtful, but then so do many things in this world, things that sometimes turn out to be true.
In the end, Gruzinsky died in a fire at the small hotel in South Kensington in which he lived. Not sure what year; maybe 1977 or 1978. It seems that he had returned to his room to retrieve papers connected with that financial deal, but was confronted by fierce flames. He then tried to escape out of a window, fell, and was impaled on railings.
I vaguely recall seeing a local TV news report about that fire. Maybe 1977. Not sure.
Whether the fire was accidental and so co-incidental, or whether MOSSAD (or whatever) had deliberately caused it in order to eliminate Gruzinsky (I doubt it— how could his demise be guaranteed? The “Princess Diana car crash plot” conundrum…), is anyone’s guess.
All a long time ago now. Nearly half a century.

“UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”] was the nominal organization which complained in 2014 to the Bar Standards Board about some of my tweets (I had a Twitter/X account until yet another pack of Jews had me “suspended”, i.e. expelled, in 2018).
An old Jew barrister called Goldberg, of whom I had never heard until that time, signed the complaint on behalf of “UKLFI”. It later turned out that he had at one time been the preferred Counsel of the notorious Kray gangsters (themselves part-Jew).
The malicious and dishonest “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] was also involved and, after I was (wrongfully and unlawfully) disbarred in 2016, its chiefs, Gideon Falter and Stephen Silverman, crowed mightily in the Press and on TV about my having been disbarred, and about how (they claimed) it set a “precedent” for their being able to target not only barristers but also members of other professions which now have strict conduct regulations (and three guesses which type of individual drafts those…).
The “UKLFI” and “CAA” have, to some extent, overlapping membership and supporter cadres. More or less, or in effect, volunteer arms of the Israeli Embassy in London, and therefore of the Israeli state.

Brainless “Conservative” Party member at the Conservative Party Conference. She mentions “thousands” of people, but the most I have seen online would be a couple of hundred in one place, and that includes Press and other msm attendees. Most gatherings seem to have been dozens rather than hundreds, let alone thousands.
I notice that that tweeter mentions the absence of demonstrators outside (with the exception of that oddly-dressed pro-EU lunatic who impeded my taxi in Whitehall a couple of years ago). The reason for the non-appearance of demonstrators is obvious— the fake “Conservative” Party is now more or less irrelevant. The Con Party is politically completely irrelevant for the next 4-5 years, and may be even less relevant after that, if Reform UK or other party manages to do well.
The voters want a real alternative, and the Con Party is not that.

Britain in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s had many problems, but they were not insoluble and, in general, Britain was improving and developing in various ways, despite the disastrous socio-economic damage done by the unnecessary and very negative Second World War.
Britain still had many possibilities open to it in the 1970s, but after that time, especially after 1989, the shades of doom closed in: mass immigration, already a problem since the 1970s, became a constantly-increasing migration-invasion. A smallish island started to become a human ant-heap. Housing shortages, crowded roads and rail, even water shortages on a regular basis. All had existed at one time or another, but on a smaller scale or more limited in duration.

“This was the first year that participation in Holocaust Memorial Day fell, we can’t sit back and accept that.
Tonight I am making two decisions in advance of that review. First, the Holocaust will remain on the curriculum come what may.
“And second, even schools who do not currently have to follow the national curriculum will have to teach the Holocaust when the new curriculum comes in.
“For the first time, studying the Holocaust will become a critical, vital part of every single student’s identity.”
[The Independent]
Starmer went on to say that the small park right next to the Palace of Westminster would be vandalized by having a Jewish-Zionist triumphalist “holocaust” centre built on it:
“So yes, we will build that national Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre. And build it next to Parliament.
“Boldly, proudly, unapologetically.”
[The Independent]
Starmer is like one of the puppets used in those 1960s British children’s shows such as Thunderbirds or Stingray. At times, you can quite easily see the strings controlling his movements.
Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper and the rest are all puppets of Jewish Zionism and the Israel lobby. Now intending to insist that every school student in the UK pays ritual obeisance to the “holocaust” mythus. Any who refuse, or do not tick all the required boxes (or who question the narrative, either as a whole or in detail), will probably be barred from higher studies.
This is an anti-British, anti-European, anti-historical dictatorship, controlled by an alien element, and which tries to impose an intellectual straitjacket on both history and politics.
As Starmer admitted, the contrived historical narrative is increasingly failing to convince British people; they are not interested, and/or do not believe the narrative usually blasted out at them.

I hardly think you’re in any position to comment on anyone’s suitability for anything. This is you isn’t it? “a nominated judge found that Recorder Myerson’s behaviour amounted to #misconduct.”https://t.co/j1k4nlMQqB
Myerson did not take that “advice” (reprimand) of March 2024 on board, continued to post vituperative tweets etc, and was then, in effect, sacked earlier this year (June or July 2024) as a Recorder (p/t judge), though he was allowed to present it as “resignation”.
Now Myerson is implying in his tweets that the (Israeli) Jews were “clever” in their Lebanon pager-explosive operation.
As a matter of fact, I agree with Myerson as to that. It was clever. It was also very wicked, particularly in that something like 1,000 people other than the supposed Hezbollah personnel killed, were injured; most if not all were ordinary passers-by, shoppers etc.
Thank God that someone as unpleasantly nasty as Myerson, and so lacking in basic decency, is no longer able to sit in the seat of legal judgment over British and other people.
One can see why the Bench had to have Myerson removed. He was —and is— unfit to pronounce judgment on anyone.
Thanks. I will. As you mourn the terrorists you so admire. From a safe place of course – you’d not actually want to be near them. Sleep well. Leave your phone outside.
Perhaps the Bar Standards Board might like to take a look at Myerson. I am not usually in favour of free-speech restriction, but in this case it would be only just, Myerson having been one of the Jews who (as an active member of “UK Lawyers for Israel”) had me disbarred for having posted a few tweets long after I ceased to be a practising barrister: see
“Since the 2019 general election Keir Starmer has accepted more in entertainment perks, including hotel stays and holidays, than any other Member of Parliament”
Starmer poses as an ethical Prime Minister elected by a “landslide”, when in fact he is a totally corrupt freeloader, and his MPs “elected” by only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters, and by only 4 out of 12 actual voters.
Starmer has no mandate.

Exactly. It is easy to be bien-pensant when the only non-whites you ever meet are of the educated and/or intelligent, or pleasant, few; especially when, if you are John Major, you have VIP protection and security where you live and whenever you travel.
John Major was a disaster for this country I seem to remember. The Maastricht Treaty which he signed up to without consulting the electorate didn't help. I actually once met him, when he was a bus conductor.
That last tweet is a typical example of false memory (or maybe an outright lie): John Major never was a bus conductor. He did apply, and was accepted for the job provisionally, but was rejected because he was too tall. He therefore never worked as a bus conductor, and that tweeter could therefore never have met him in that role: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Major#Early_post-school_career_(1959%E2%80%931979)
Such false memory is actually quite common. The noted —but apparently not much liked— big businessman, “Tiny” Rowland [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiny_Rowland] was said to have once worked as a porter at Paddington Station (Wikipedia does not mention it, but I believe Rowland did work there as a porter, though only very briefly, and in the early part of the Second World War, when he was about 20).
A friend of mine, a lady who often walked through Paddington Station from the early 1960s to the late 1980s, sometimes told me (in the 1980s), when Rowland was in the news, that she remembered him as a young man working as a porter at Paddington.
My old friend did not, I think, mean to lie, but she was mistaken, and had to be. If and when Rowland was briefly a station porter, it would have been around 1939 or 1940.
The lady I knew would have been still in her teens then, having been born in 1926. She had been born in East Prussia (on her family’s vast estate, or one of them), had attended the Sacre Coeur convent school in Paris for a year just before the Second World War, but was then a kind of hostage under NKVD control in the Soviet Union for 3 years, at first in a prison on a river island on the Kazakhstan-Russia border, then working briefly on a state farm before becoming a student-nurse. When she escaped from the Soviet Union in 1942, she was just 16. She was in Persia, and then British East Africa. She first visited London sometime in the late 1940s, but not for long.
In other words, my old friend could never have seen Rowland as a porter (assuming he ever was one), Rowland having been working in business in the City of London during the early/mid 1940s and then, from 1948, in the then Southern Rhodesia (the later Rhodesia and then Zimbabwe).
We often see false memory, not least in (mainly Jewish) recollections of life in Germany and Poland during the so-called “holocaust” years of the early/mid 1940s. It is often hard to say which of the hundreds, indeed thousands, of accounts are simply misremembrances and which are outright frauds, but both are very common.
…and that has been only about 5% of the full migration-invasion figure…

I would urge anyone arrested, and (unlike that lady) charged with anything effectively “political”, to plead Not Guilty.
Force the System to attempt to prove the case, and force the politicized police and “Clown” Prosecution to spend time and resources on the matter, and so (in terms of time) “kick the can down the road”.
If you do that, the System drones may have to drop the case (in the case reported on, of course, it never got that far; she was never charged). If you plead Not Guilty, the case may only be tried after many months (and if heard in Crown Court, maybe even a couple of years).
True, if convicted after a trial, you may get a sentence notionally more severe than had you pleaded (Guilty) to the charge, but these politicized cases are now being treated absurdly and unfairly harshly anyway. As far as Crown Court cases are concerned, we have seen people sentenced to years of imprisonment for doing really not very much, while real (non-political) criminals are often getting very lenient punishment.
I am not so sure that, from the perspective of a “political” “criminal”, there is much difference between getting, say, 15 months in prison on a Not Guilty plea then resulting in conviction after a trial, and 10 months on a Guilty plea.
The “political” convict, often someone of previous good character, or at least “not so bad” character, ends up in prison anyway in the current climate, either way.
In terms of time, too, a 15 month sentence might translate to 6 months actually incarcerated (40% of 15 months), as compared to 4 months after a Guilty plea and a sentence of 10 months. Still extra time, of course.
There is also the point that a Not Guilty plea might pay off in terms of you, as defendant, being found Not Guilty on technical grounds by a magistrate/District Judge or on a (Crown Court) Judge’s direction. Or you might be found Not Guilty by a magistrate, or a Crown Court jury.
There is also the possibility that something may happen during the trial, esp. if in the Crown Court, to render the trial ineffective.
In cases where imprisonment is never likely to happen, there may be little difference between being found guilty after a trial and pleading Not Guilty ab initio.
In my own case, related here below, I would never have pleaded Guilty under any circumstances anyway. As it was, I very nearly got off on technical grounds at “half time” (at the close of the Prosecution case).
My trial continued, however, and I was pronounced guilty by the District Judge, though on slightly confused (in my opinion) grounds.
My sentence was firstly to pay the purely notional costs of the trial and also to pay a “victim surcharge” (just another impost), the two together adding up to £734. Secondly, I was to complete 15 “rehabilitation days” under the supervision of the Probation Service.
Of course, the Jew-Zionists of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], who had procured the case against me by suborning the police and CPS in my county of residence, and who pressured the CPS politically, and quite improperly, to prosecute me, were livid at the perceived “leniency” of the sentence, so much so that it took them days, in fact I believe 2-3 weeks, to respond on Twitter/X and their own website. I can just imagine them fuming and arguing about it.
Well, a few generous donors who read the blog sent just over a third of the financial penalty monies, via a crowdfunder I established; the rest I paid off (I still have one small-ish payment left to pay) on a monthly basis. Irritating but not too onerous.
As to the “15 rehabilitation days”, it turned out that each “day” was a meeting with the Probation Service, the meetings as short as 20 minutes in a couple of cases (though 3 or 4 such meetings did for some reason not count toward the 15).
There was no “rehabilitation day” as long as an actual day, or even half a day.
Until a few weeks ago, I thought that I had only done about 3 or 4 actual “rehabilitation days” (meetings) counting towards the 15. However, I was then told that, by reason of larger-scale events not connected with me personally, my “days” were finished and I would be (as I have now been) deemed to have completed the “15” days to which I was sentenced.
So there it is. The politicized police (our new poundshop Stasi) and the politicized CPS, apparently spent hundreds of hours, maybe even thousands of hours, “trawling through” (as the CPS put it) hundreds of blog posts. The costs in terms of police and CPS time must have been large. The CPS instructed outside Counsel to prosecute. That barrister made several appearance prior to trial, at trial, and after trial, when (briefed again by, shall we say, “the fat lady” singing) he made a doomed attempt both to restrict my freedom to blog and to make the sentence more severe (only to find that the sentencing judge agreed with me).
All that money and effort, taking well over a year by the end, not to mention Court time, and the only result was that I had to pay out a few hundred pounds and meet a (rather polite and charming) young Probation Service lady about 7 or 8 times.
Further to the above, of course a defendant can appeal a Guilty verdict. In my case, it was expedient not to do so, though I considered that I had a 50-50 chance of success.
I was never arrested, incidentally, just charged by postal requisition, and was on unconditional bail throughout the proceedings in court.
Naturally, I should never have been bothered by the police, let alone charged or prosecuted.
A fortiori, I should never have been convicted or sentenced, but there it is.
My own perception of my trial and sentence, and the aftermath:

Back in the mid-1980s, I sometimes enjoyed Spitting Image [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitting_Image]. The sort of real cutting satire that would simply not be allowed today, much of it. In any case, with the sort of events we now see (eg Biden’s funny but also sad descent into the fog), any similar show today would have to fight hard to compete with what is actually happening in front of our eyes.
True, Reagan was not the most-obviously intelligent world leader, but the satirical treatment of him was deliberately “over the top”; whatever his flaws, he was not in the grip of a dementia-related condition plainly visible whenever he spoke in public.

The regime of that evil little bastard has only one main chance— to drag NATO into the war. That might mean a slide into a nuclear confrontation before very long.
If the Kiev regime starts to attack Russian cities far from the front line, the response might be that Ukrainian cities in the western part of Ukraine, west of the Dnieper, might be attacked and even destroyed.
So far, Russia has not launched all-out attack on Kiev, partly because of its role in Russian history, but if major Russian cities start to be bombarded, that may change.
I predicted, a couple of years ago, on the blog, that Russia would start to degrade the electrical production and distribution network across Ukraine. That is now being intensified, and is a far more intelligent way of waging war than the more brutal and harsh —and less effective— choice of attacking directly the homes and neighbourhoods of the Ukrainian civilians.
If the Kiev regime starts to badly damage Russian cities away from the front line —especially Moscow, Petersburg and surrounding territories— the Russian response could be devastating enough to bring NATO into the war on some pretext such as Poland suffering damage. Were that to happen, all of us would be but a step away from a Russia-NATO war, which is being pushed by secret circles within the West. Such a war, which would quite likely go nuclear within weeks, would change Europe and the world forever.

I was just looking at Twitter/X, which is alive today with Twitter-twits attacking Reform UK and, particularly, belittling Reform for, as it were, pretending to be a serious political party when it “only” has 5 MPs.
As recently as June 2024, the LibDems only had 11 MPs, and had only 8 from 2015 until 2017.
As for the SNP, from its foundation in the early 1930s and until 1970, about 37 years (!), the SNP had no MPs at all; in 1970, the SNP managed to have elected 1 MP. The MP-cadre of the SNP then varied from 2 to (1974 to 1979) 11 MPs in the years 1974 to 2015, but mostly stuck at 2 or 3 MPs until 1997, when the SNP bloc increased its numbers, this time to 6 MPs. When the FPTP tipping-point was reached in 2015, the SNP mushroomed from 6 MPs to 56 (out of 59 Scottish MPs) overnight: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_National_Party#House_of_Commons.
Apart from those comparisons, the Twitter-twits might like to consider what this blog has been saying for the past week, as have some others (though not enough) even in the msm: Labour did not win by some kind of popular “landslide”, but only in terms of seats conferred by a totally unfit-for-purpose electoral system.
As noted on the blog in past days, at GE 2024 the Conservative Party only got (just over) 1.5x the number/percentage of votes of Reform UK, and even Labour only got (below) 2.5x the Reform UK vote-share.
As put on the blog the other day, out of every 20 eligible voters, only 12 even voted.
In very rough terms, out of that eligible 20 voters, 8 voters abstained, 4 voters voted Lab, 3 voters voted Con, 2 voters voted Reform, 2 voters voted LibDem, and 1 voter voted Green.
Not exactly, and “other parties were available”, but 90.29% of UK voters voted for one of those 5 parties. In England specifically, about 97% of voters voted Lab, Con, Reform, LibDem or Green.
The Twitter-Twits tweeting about Reform UK are mostly Labour supporters who belittle Reform because only 2 out of every 12 voters who voted voted for it, yet only 4 out of 12 (4 out of 20 if you count the abstainers) voted Labour.
I happened to notice one particular Twitter/X account, one “@RobBaron10”, who today (as of 1430) has already managed to put out about 29 Twitter/X “replies”, almost all angrily insulting, and all or almost all completely brainless. I have to say that I am loath to give much credence to someone whose Twitter/X profile says “Retired lecturer in philosophy trying to live a low-impact lifestyle. Despises the far-right and social injustice. Responds in the tone responded to.” Especially when said “retired lecturer in philosophy” thinks that “toe the line” is spelled “tow the line“…
More seriously, if Starmer-Labour MPs and supporters think that the absurd result of GE 2024 gives Starmer the right to impose a “woke”, and also Israel-lobby, tyranny on the people of the UK, he and they are very much mistaken.
Remember those figures— only 4 out of 12 who voted (<34%) voted Labour; only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters (~20%) voted Labour.

"The knowledge that at least some Conservative ministers opposed the woke agenda meant radical activists in the institutions could not fully let rip. But that leash came off when Labour won on July 4" – guest essay by leading scholar of wokeism @epkaufmhttps://t.co/zBe2Fqilc1
“Ultimately, this means that defending our truth-based order, free speech and national identity is considered undignified while sacrificing these values in the name of ‘equal outcomes’ and ‘emotional safety’ is not.
Of course, Labour is also proposing innocent-sounding legislation on hate speech and racial equality which will further supercharge this woke cultural socialism, shutting down offensive speech while pressuring organizations to discriminate against whites and males to achieve equal outcomes for identity groups.
Will Britain wake up in time to prevent…erosion of our long traditions of free speech, free expression, objective truth, equal treatment and due process? Will future generations be taught to hate the British past and the white men who played an outsized role in creating our national community?
At best, I think we have one or two decades to reverse the march of wokeism before today’s Zoomers and Millennials, who prioritise ‘emotional safety’ over free speech, become the median voter and the country reaches a point of no return.”

It will be recalled by older British readers that, in the Dikko case of 1984, an Israeli Jew doctor was directly involved in the MOSSAD operation to kidnap a former Nigerian government minister:
“The Dikko affair was a joint Nigerian–Israeli attempt to kidnap Umaru Dikko, a former Nigerian government minister living in the United Kingdom, in 1984, and secretly transport him back to Nigeria in a diplomatic bag. The kidnapping took place, but the transportation thereof was unsuccessful.
Mossad sources across Europe failed to locate Dikko. However, Mossad Director-General Nahum Admoni decided that Dikko was probably in London, which had become a haven for Nigerian exiles critical of the new regime.
Mossad field officers (katsas), accompanied by Nigerian security service agents led by ex-Nigerian Army Major Mohammed Yusufu, traveled to London. The Nigerian team rented an apartment on Cromwell Road and posed as refugees from the new regime. The Mossad agents rented rooms in hotels catering to tourists from Africa, and posed as anti-apartheid activists.
Working separately, the two teams moved among the Nigerian expat community in London, gradually narrowing their search to West London, to the area around Hyde Park, where many wealthy Nigerian exiles lived. They combed the electoral registers freely available in the area’s town halls, but found no trace of Dikko.
On 30 June 1984, a Mossad agent driving down Queensway, in Bayswater, spotted Dikko. He parked his car and then tailed Dikko on foot to his house in Porchester Terrace. Admoni was immediately informed, and ordered surveillance on the house. From then on, the house was constantly watched, while the Nigerians, using their London high commission as a base, prepared a kidnapping operation.
Meanwhile, Mossad recruited Levi-Arie Shapiro, an Israeli doctor who was a consultant anesthetist and director of the intensive care unit at HaSharon Hospital. He was to fly to London and participate in the operation. Shapiro’s job would be to drug Dikko, and insert an endotracheal tube to keep him from choking on his own vomit while being transported in a crate.”

I recall seeing the Australian TV series Skippy the Bush Kangaroo a few times after my family moved to Sydney in 1967 (I was 10 at the time). The show was on TV from early 1968.

Some such stories become famous, others are either unknown or are known only to the few people directly involved.
Interesting. I have been to Famagusta (now in Turkish-ruled Northern Cyprus), but some years ago, in fact many years ago— January 2000. I did not see the ruins of the Varosha resort, though. That is a mile south of the main town, I think.
When I drove to Famagusta (from Kyrenia), the ruins of its ancient heritage were deserted. My then girlfriend and I were alone there. There were not even any people selling postcards or the like. Even the more modern parts of the town were far from busy. That was 24 years ago, though. Things change, of course. I think that there has been quite a lot of development in some areas.
I rather liked Northern Cyprus. Relaxed and, in 2000 at least, with relatively few tourists, and really none once you left Kyrenia (officially, now, Girne). A little cold at night (in January) but warm-ish during the day, usually, and with numerous interesting ancient sites (which one shared with no other people at all) set amid orange groves. I even had a rather bracing swim off a deserted beach, but it was no colder in the water than it is in the UK in summer, and the sun was shining.
I drove one day from Kyrenia right the way down the Karpas Peninsula [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karpas_Peninsula] to the eastern end. At that point, you are only 60 miles across the Eastern Mediterranean from Latakia in Syria.
“In a straw poll of veterans, Farage’s campaign message seemed to be getting through.
Jason Stewart was in a green beret and a biker jacket studded with medals; after a long career in the Royal Marines, he “thought it was time to get out after I was blown up twice in one day in Afghanistan”.
He offers a version of an argument heard all day. “The two main parties look both the same to me,” he says. “The Tories don’t care about us. And Labour say they will reopen prosecutions of soldiers who served [in the Troubles] so that’s a no-no. Farage and Reform seem like the only option.”
Up the road, meanwhile, opposite McDonald’s, there was an alternative display of army jeeps and vehicles alongside veterans in fatigues. The display was organised by David Bye and his partner, Linda Hazelton, who run a charity delivering homemade pie and mash to needy veterans around the town. Bye had a one-to-one chat with Farage when he visited and claims he was given certain commitments, which will remain between them.
He grew up here; he remembers earning pocket money as a kid running tourist luggage down busy streets to Butlin’s. It’s been a long decline, he says, since the holiday camp went. “I thought I’d seen it all,” he says. “But the other morning I saw a long queue of blokes on bikes waiting for McDonald’s to open. They were collecting takeaways for people who couldn’t be bothered to make breakfast for their kids.
“I don’t know where you start with some of that,” he suggests. “But I think Nigel gets it.
The place holds symbolic relevance to Farage. Exactly a decade ago, under his Ukip brand, a meeting here paved the way for that party’s only Westminster election success, for Douglas Carswell. If you were to define the moment that Brexit became a possibility, and then a reality, you might begin there. Nine hundred people showed up, many of whom had not previously taken any interest in national politics. In the course of their populist pitch, Carswell and Farage quoted liberally from a Times newspaper column the previous week written by Matthew Parris.
Looking back at that column a decade on, you can see in it all the faultlines that were exposed and exploited so cynically by Farage and Brexit, the roots of the crisis that threatens to destroy the Conservative party in this election (a humiliation from which Farage, inevitably, hopes to benefit).
Parris, in his waspish style, on a visit to Clacton in 2014, had declared its irrelevance to modern Conservatism: “This is tracksuit-and-trainers Britain, tattoo-parlour Britain, all-our-yesterdays Britain,” he wrote. He asked his party a question which would now get a very different answer: “Is this where the Conservative party wants to be? [Or] do we need to be with the Britain that can admire immigrants and want them with us, that doesn’t want to spend its days buying scratchcards?”
Parris insisted that he was not “arguing that we should be careless of the needs of struggling people and places such as Clacton. But I am arguing – if I am honest – that we should be careless of their opinions.
Farage could not have scripted a better scene for himself than the spectacle of a Tory prime minister leaving the D-day celebrations early. Tragically, as this week is proving, the forces that made his bleak and divisive message relevant in 2014 have not gone away, and in the weeks to come you suspect that Westminster political parties will still ignore Clacton at their peril.”
[The Guardian].
Not once does the full article mention the fact that the person presently posing as PM is “unelected” (at least, unvalidated by a General Election) and a little Indian money-juggler; but there you are…”The Guardian”…
Interesting, though, all the same. I think that Farage has every chance of being elected at Clacton. The only reason that the Conservative Party candidate Giles Watling (MP since 2017, a long-retired actor, and a member of the Garrick Club, who lives at Frinton, the more expensive part of the constituency) got over 70% of the vote in 2019 is because his political stance is akin to that of UKIP/Brexit Party/Reform UK anyway.
Watling came second, behind ex-Conservative Douglas Carswell (for UKIP) both at the 2014 by-election and the 2015 General Election, and only won in 2017 because Carswell stood down. Having said that, Watling did get 36.7% in 2015, only about 8 points behind Carswell.
While the election at Clacton might yet be close, Farage has every chance now. Labour and other parties are spectators at Clacton. Labour’s best was 25.4% (in 2017, when the Cons got over 60%).
Interestingly, that 2017 Labour candidate, Natasha Osben, is now, in 2024, the Green Party candidate. Starmer is really not very popular even within the Labour —or recently Labour— ranks.
Will Labour voters vote tactically? If so, for Reform UK or for the Conservative Party? My money is on Reform UK.
“Alarmingly for Conservative HQ, many polling experts believe the conditions are ripe for a repeat of 1997, when tactical voting benefited Labour and the Lib Dems and cost the Tories dozens of seats, most notably the toppling of Michael Portillo in Enfield Southgate. This time, Shapps is among the big beasts who could suffer their own polling night infamy.
Tactical efforts came to little at the last election. Hopes among pro-Remain campaigners of an anti-Brexit tactical vote were dashed as Boris Johnson won an 80-strong majority. But conditions have changed. Peter Kellner, the veteran pollster, wrote in the Observer before the 1997 election that while he detected little “positive enthusiasm” for Labour, an electorate with “a burning desire to end 18 years of Tory rule” made for receptive tactical voting conditions. He believes similar ingredients are present today.
While the net effects of tactical voting are hard to calculate, the Liberal Democrats could gain 10-20 extra seats through anti-Conservative tactical voting, according to an analysis by the Electoral Calculus consultancy. Meanwhile, with the added help of Nigel Farage and Reform UK, the tactical dynamic could push Labour closer in another swathe of previously safe Tory seats.“
“Writing in the Observer, Rob Ford, a leading expert on voting intention and trends, says the evidence from polls shows that “an electoral asteroid is streaking through the atmosphere” and is heading for the Tory heartlands. Ford no longer thinks it impossible that the Conservatives could end up with less than 100 seats, so badly is their campaign misfiring and so much trust have they lost over 14 years and the tenures of five prime ministers.
Other polling experts say that such is the geographical spread of the Tory vote, and the brutal nature of the first past the post system, that once their vote drops into the low 20% region, the number of seats could fall into double digits – and could go as low as 20.“
[Observer/Guardian]
I have speculated for quite a while that the Con vote might go low enough nationwide to leave the Cons with as few as 50 MPs. Perhaps I was right (I sometimes am…).

Emily Thornberry slightly reminds me of Mrs Mossberg, a fat, short and jolly Jewish primary school teacher, usually —in my memory— dressed in a long dark-brown mink coat; I knew her circa 1962, when about 5 or 6 years old and a pupil at Caversham Primary School near Reading. Mrs Mossberg, though, was far more pleasant than Emily Thornberry seems to be.
In retrospect, I wonder why Mrs Mossberg ever bothered to be a teacher, which I doubt paid much. She lived not far from my family, a few roads away, in a large detached house. The main reception room, which I saw at least once, seemed enormous to the 5-y-o me, and it had a large grand piano in it. Maybe she just enjoyed teaching.

“Conservatives face election wipeout with Labour set to gain a 416 majority that could see Rishi Sunak LOSING his seat and the Tories being left with just 39 MPs, shock Mail on Sunday poll reveals.”

If that turns out to be correct on 4 July 2024, I will have been proven correct, and the “experts” and “specialists” (who have been saying 100-200 Con MPs left post-GE 2024) would be wrong (again)…
Also true, arguably. About the same, I should say.
Clacton is currently polling Reform at 33%, tories on 30% ans labour 25%. Everywhere else, reform are averaging about 17% with either labour or tories on over 30%
The first tweet confirms what I have been blogging re. Clacton. It is between Reform UK (Farage) and the Cons (Giles Watling). Labour has no chance at all, but Labour voters in Clacton can be the kingmakers. Their votes can swing it, either for Reform or for the Cons.
Even if the second tweet is accurate, and it may not be, voters can still give the Cons a mighty and historic kick by voting Reform UK and thus preventing the Conservative Party from thriving, or even surviving.
The very fact that such a grassroots campaign is even necessary shows how sick society has become.
