I have always believed that “Zeppelins”, lighter-than-air craft, have a future as well as a past. I blogged about that a few times, years ago:

https://twitter.com/i/status/1845785216889016479

That tweet from an Israeli account, decrying the deliberate burning to death of Palestinian civilians, including children and hospital patients, was retweeted by Sabrina Miller, Daily Mail scribbler and fairly hardcore Jew-Zionist.

Even people like that, pro-Israel to the hilt, are horrified by the (literal) “holocaust” in which the Israeli forces are now indulging, against a civilian population which has no means of protection or self-defence.

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.

Sabrina Miller also retweeted the above tweet. I concede that I have a greater respect for her honesty now that she appears to see (and is willing to show publicly) the sheer inhumanity of at least some of the behaviour of the Israeli Jews.

Apocalyptic videos from central Gaza show the aftermath of an Israeli airstrike in which children, men, and women are burning alive; you can see it all for yourself – humans are in the inferno as tents are burning, and they’re unable to escape or be rescued. This cannot be ignored or allowed to go on indefinitely. A year later, this aimless war is going nowhere and is failing to bring safety or the hostages home. There are alternatives to continuing with this; stop the killing civilians in Gaza every single day!

[the above tweet was also retweeted by Sabrina Miller].

The televisual equivalent of the Judenpresse/Lugenpresse.

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.

+Ben Gvir: Are you a representative of the terrorists? You came to work for them, you are a terrorist

-Tayibi: You are a terrorist

+Ben Gvir: You represent terrorist families, you are an example of terrorist families.

-Tayibi: You are the head of a faction of terrorist supporters, the law does not include Jewish terrorists?

×Cohen: There are no Jewish terrorists.”

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.

Diary Blog, 11 September 2024, including reminiscence about the “9/11” attack in 2001

Morning music

11 September 2001

Well, here we are again. On the “original” 11 September, meaning “9/11” 2001 (in the American format), I was in the back of a taxi driving down the Strand in London, with an American colleague. Mid-morning. He received a call from his wife in Charleston, South Carolina. Something about a plane crashing into the World Trade Center in Manhattan.

My colleague relayed the news to me, and the typically know-all London taxi driver told us that he already knew all about it.

My American colleague asked me where we could get to a TV. I replied that our office in London (off Berkeley Square in Mayfair) had one, but that there used to be a Dixons (electronics and home electrical goods store) in the Strand. We saw it, disembarked and went into that store. Hundreds of TV sets, all showing what looked like a disaster movie. A few customers wandering around, looking at the goods, seemingly unaware of the enormity of what was happening, vicariously, in front of them.

After about 10 minutes looking and listening, we left and went to my then office. The staff there were getting the latest on-the-ground and diplomatic news.

My American colleague was both grim and angry, and muttered something about how “we” should respond in the same way the Israelis always did. Needless to say, I disagreed, though as politely as I could. For one thing, the origins and motives of the perpetrators had not yet been established (he was saying that it must be the Iraqis, which of course turned out to be wrong). I do recall remarking that if a state was proven to have been behind the attack, then it was undoubtedly an act of war in terms of international law.

Of course, the 2001 WTC attack was used as the fuel for the American-led invasions of both Iraq and Afghanistan.

I well remember my American colleague’s anger, which I think was general across the USA, from what I not only saw on TV but also what I noted once or twice in the USA not long afterward; I flew to Washington about a week or so after the attacks.

I myself was relatively unemotional about it, despite the horrible images and evident suffering etc. That’s just me, I suppose. After all, many horrible things happen in the world, and the Americans themselves perpetrate quite a few of them. Having said that, the attack was an appalling outrage from almost any point of view.

Since then, of course, the Trade Center attack has spawned a hundred “conspiracy theories”, including the so-called “Dancing Israelis”: see https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/12768362.five-israelis-were-seen-filming-as-jet-liners-ploughed-into-the-twin-towers-on-september-11-2001/.

That report is really worth reading. The Israeli intelligence connection to the “9/11” attack is more than a simple “conspiracy theory” that can be simply laughed off.

See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11_attacks_advance-knowledge_conspiracy_theories.

After the attacks on New York and Washington, the former Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was asked what the terrorist strikes would mean for US-Israeli relations. He said: “It’s very good.” Then he corrected himself, adding: “Well, it’s not good, but it will generate immediate sympathy for Israel from Americans.”

[Herald Scotland]

As with the Kennedy assassination, some of the “9/11” conspiracy theories, mutually contradictory as some are, cannot be entirely discounted.

One thing that I found odd at the time was that members of the bin Laden family living in the USA at the time were flown out of US airspace on private jets only a day or two after the attacks (the Pentagon also having been hit), and authorized in person, it seems, by George W. Bush, the U.S. President, and at a time before ordinary commercial flights were allowed to resume.

Of course, since the attacks of 2001, the area of the attack has been redeveloped.

The original “Twin Towers” complex was a very powerful architectural statement, partly because of the two almost identical main buildings:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Trade_Center_(1973%E2%80%932001)

In fact, there were minor differences. I went up both towers. Once only, in 1989, onto the open observation deck of the South Tower:

…and also once only to the Hors d’Oeuvrerie and Cellar in the Sky near the top of the North Tower, where I enjoyed the view and a couple of glasses of Californian Chardonnay with my first wife, an employee of the Federal Government. That would have been in 1990 or 1991.

In fact, during the years 1989-1993 I was occasionally at the World Trade Center, but only because I sometimes used the PATH line from Newark (New Jersey) into Manhattan, a service that terminated either at the WTC or at 33rd Street/Herald Square in Midtown (I more often went to Midtown).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PATH_(rail_system)

The rebuilt area is still quite striking but perhaps not quite so much as the original:

Incidentally, one of the things I noticed about the South Tower was the speed of the very large express lift/elevator (the size of a room), which transported tourists to the floor below the Observation Deck in a matter of only a couple of minutes, if I recall aright. I think 107 floors. There was a staircase from there to the outside Observation Deck.

I did not see the U.S. Presidential TV debate. Such “debates” are always rubbish (going back as far as the famous Nixon-Kennedy ones). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1960_United_States_presidential_debates.

Having said that, such shouting matches and trivia do have their effect on voter response.

At this point, I have no idea who supposedly “won” the TV debate, or who is going to come out on top in the election.

The “Twitterati”, or Twitter/X twits, heavily pro-Kamala Harris, think that she has “won” the TV debate, but that is near-meaningless: they were also sure that the Remain side would win the Brexit Referendum, and that Hillary Clinton would win the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election.

America is now so polarized that it would take a President ten times better than the two present contenders rolled together to patch it up.

Starmer-Labour is a Labour Friends of Israel project.

More reminiscences

It seems that today is a day for Memory Lane.

I notice that Larkbeare House in Exeter, not far from the barristers’ chambers where I was professionally based during the years 2002-2008 (though actually resident much of the time after 2005 and until mid-2009 in France), is up for sale.

Larkbeare House was, at that time (and, indeed, since 1876), the Judges’ Lodgings. High Court and Circuit Judges on the Western Circuit of the Bar [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuits_of_England_and_Wales] would stay there when sitting at Exeter.

I attended a couple of receptions there in 2006/2007.

Judges’ Lodgings, which go back hundreds of years, came into existence as a way of isolating judges from the opinions and potential pressures of the local populations, and also protecting them from potential intimidation or protest.

The sale is a sign of the times. The misgovernment of David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne decided to sell off most of the remaining Judges’ Lodgings. Judges now often stay in hotels when on circuit; to my mind not entirely satisfactory.

Incidentally, if anyone wants to buy the property, the “guide price” is £4M.

Listen to that little bastard (Hamish Falconer MP). Parroting the exact same words that many “Conservative” MPs did 2010-2024. No difference whatsoever. “Tough choices” etc. The little bastard has never had to make a “tough choice” in his life, let alone one that impacted him personally.

Incidentally:

The son of Charlie Falconer, Baron Falconer of Thoroton, who served as Lord Chancellor under Tony Blair, Falconer attended Westminster School and then St. John’s College, Cambridge, graduating in 2008 in Human, Social and Political Science,[4] before joining the diplomatic service. Falconer worked in the UK government’s Department for International Development from 2009 to 2013, and then the Foreign and Commonwealth Office until 2022.[5] His diplomatic career centred on national security and humanitarian relief, including hostage recovery.[6][7] Whilst in the Foreign Office, he spent a year at Yale University as a “World Fellow”.[8]

Since leaving the Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office, Falconer worked as an associate fellow at the IPPR,[6] and was a Policy Fellow at the think tank Labour Together alongside standing as a candidate for Parliament.

A horrible little System-careerist bastard, in short. Moreover, one born with a double-size silver spoon in his mouth.

Starmer and his cohorts, including the said horrible little careerist bastard, are sending £3 BILLION a year to the brutal Jewish dictatorship in Kiev, apart from anything else. More than they are confiscating from British pensioners.

The “Conservative” government of that little Indian money-juggler had to go, had to be binned, but what has replaced it (as I predicted, though not alone) is a kind of useless, pointless, sleazy, box-ticking Blair Mark Two government of would-be dictatorial idiots, headed by chief idiot Starmer.

Everyone and every organization helping to facilitate evil rubbish of that sort should be purged.

Also seen there, jeering, is bad-joke “Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice, Shabana Mahmood, a Pakistani woman whose entire “legal career” (even including Bar pupillage) lasted for only about 3 years, mostly spent being a “gopher” at a firm of solicitors.

What a line-up of unpleasant individuals. Look at sour-faced would-be dictator Yvette Cooper! Has she been told that her Labour Friends of Israel subscription is due? Have some of her latest fake expenses claims been queried?

They are already worse. Starmer-Labour, Friends of Israel-Labour, has nothing it really wants to do, except sit as a “government”, get paid well, make connections with big business, and “govern “, punishing anyone who expresses alternative views of the world.

They have no policies worth a plugged nickel, and they have no mandate— only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters voted for them, and most of those were people wanting only to bin the “Conservative” Party.

[No, wait! I voted Labour!“]

Starmer-Labour has a list of people they want to kill off or at least imprison and/or silence: pensioners (hardly any of whom vote Labour now), alternative political voices, those opposed to Israeli war crimes and the UK Jewish lobby.

This is a (barely-)”elected” dictatorship, composed mainly of people who can fairly, if loosely, be described as traitors.

Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves are set to be insulated from the impact of energy bill hikes as pensioners face a struggle without winter fuel payments. 

The PM and Chancellor only pay a taxable benefit on running costs at the grace-and-favour apartments – capped at 10 per cent of their ministerial salaries.

It means that they contribute around £3,000 to cover all utilities and other expenses, and the sum will not go up when the Ofgem cap increases by 10 per cent next month.

Regular readers know that I always say that I am not a “hanger and flogger” by any means, but a suspended sentence, and pitiful financial penalty, for a completely unprovoked and vicious attack of that sort in a public place, is inadequate; in fact it makes a mockery of law, order, and the courts.

We all know that prisons are full etc, but that sentence is just not good enough. Naturally, not all relevant facts before the court are printed in newspaper reports, but it is hard to see what mitigation could be sufficient on the facts that are known to newspaper readers to outweigh what the defendant did.

Incidentally, I had no idea what “Razorlight” might be. For those in similar difficulties: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Razorlight.

Alpine Switzerland. A rather wet day.

I am a market researcher. I spoke to Sunak about Polls at the leadership hustings. I don’t think he believes them and to some extent he is right to do so. But we’ve been out campaigning in Bexhill and Battle and have yet to meet anyone whose said they’ll vote Tory in a 26k majority seat.”

We read newspapers, watch TV commentary, see opinion polls, look at (often biased) Twitter/X comment. All contribute to our belief as to what might happen on Election Day. Beyond that, there is mere personal experience of one’s own local area; anecdotal, subjective.

I myself live in an area of coastal Hampshire known for being traditionally “safe” Conservative. The local MP is someone with some of whose views (eg on the Covid scamdemic/panicdemic) I can agree, but with whom I would not agree on other topics. He is also a very poor constituency MP— lazy, uncaring, and totally useless in fact, as a few people have told me after not having received help or even a polite acknowledgment from him.

In previous general elections, I have seen almost exclusively Conservative Party posters around, and one huge banner on a house in the nearby small town. This time, I think only one Conservative poster, and three or four LibDem ones. Unscientific, but is that a straw in the wind? Hard to say, but interesting all the same.

The incumbent MP has been there since the constituency was created in 1997. He has never scored below 50%, and received well over 60% in both 2017 and 2019. Labour usually come third (second in 2017) here, and the LibDems (usually second-placed, though fourth behind Con, UKIP and Labour in 2015) had their best result in 1997 (27.8%).

In other words, it would take a political earthquake, maybe a political meteorite strike, to displace the Conservative here…and yet…and yet…

I may be reading too much into the presence or otherwise of political posters put up locally, but it occurred to me that the Conservative Party in the constituency has (perhaps) few volunteers now. The average age of Con Party members in this constituency must be around 80 if not 90. Does the presence of a few LibDem posters indicate a local upsurge, or just a single diligent volunteer?

I cannot see the LibDem candidate displacing the Con candidate this time, even if Reform UK do well, but who knows? Con, Lab and LibDem are all standing for election, but so also is a double-barrelled (in both senses, probably) Reform UK fellow, a Green, an Animal Welfare candidate [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Welfare_Party], and one for the SDP, which I am surprised to see claims 2,000 members nationally [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Democratic_Party_(UK,_1990%E2%80%93present)].

How big the Reform UK vote here will be on 4 July 2024 is uncertain. UKIP scored 16.9% in 2015, though far less prior to that. Since 2015, there has been no broadly “national” party standing, and no social-national party has ever stood here.

If the staff had been Palestinian Arabs, they would have stood no chance. Having said that, Arabs would probably not have been employed anyway, for reasons of security.

Farage and Reform UK to merge with the Cons within 14 days? That sounds ludicrous. If it were to happen, in the 12 days left, it would just be a replay of 2019, when Farage stabbed his own party in the back; with one big difference, though— in 2019, Farage’s back-stab meant that instead of a likely hung Parliament, “Boris”-idiot was able to get an 80-seat Commons majority. In this General Election, the surrounding situation is very different.

Were the predicted merger to occur, and if Farage then urged voters to vote Con in many constituencies, all that would happen would be that Labour would still win overall, but with a majority of maybe 100+ instead of maybe 300. Of course, that would save perhaps 100 or 150 Con Party seats. It would also destroy whatever credibility Farage still seems to have with many people.

After any such merger, I suppose that the idea would be that Sunak would lose the election, resign, disappear from view, and that a leadership election would then anoint Farage as leader of the Con/Reform party.

Not totally impossible, arguably, but very unlikely. Reform UK is on a roll. Brexit Party had all wind taken out of its sails by Farage’s treachery in 2019. The same would happen today. It might even help Labour more than Reform UK fighting on as at present. After all, all the Reform UK candidates are now on the ballot papers.

The only way the predicted merger would work would be if Sunak and Farage were to announce a list of which seats would be “gifted” to Reform UK, but the candidates would still have to remain nominally in place.

That prediction to me sounds like nonsense. After the election might be a different story, were Reform UK to have 5-10 MPs in the Commons, and the Cons 50-100. However, once Reform UK merged with the Cons, and after (if it were to happen) Farage were elected to lead the merged parties, then what? The surviving Con MPs would be not a good match with the new Reform UK MPs; apple and orange. What could they offer the public? Con Party policies but with more emphasis on immigration? Sounds underwhelming.

Never say never, but I cannot see it as likely. If, however, it were to happen, it might yet open the door, on the flank, to real social-national people. “Always look on the bright side of life“.

As to that Gewolb individual’s views on UK interest rates, I do not have the economic background to assess them.

The Conservative Party is dying on its feet right in front of us. I really cannot see Farage wanting to ally himself with a party that, in another metaphor, is sinking below the waves. Not even after the election.

I notice that the Sky News “Chief Political Correspondent”, one Jon Craig, has been wheeled out to write a piece on the Sky News website about how “vile” Farage was to speak the truth about the Ukraine situation, i.e. that NATO has steadily advanced across Eastern Europe since the 1990s, thus destabilizing the NATO-Russia status quo.

Interesting language…”vile“— reminiscent of the language used by “the usual suspects” (((them)))…

The System may be getting or feeling seriously threatened by Reform UK, and is trying to use attack propaganda to weaken Farage’s appeal.

Craig claims that most “Britons” support “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime). I doubt it. Look at the comments section of the Daily Mail.

There is something going on here, with System scribblers, talking heads, and both “Labour” and “Conservative” Friends of Israel MPs all attacking Farage.

I have just heard the news on my car radio. Farage’s comments about the Ukraine situation were prominently displayed. I wonder, though, whether the Kiev regime is as popular with the people as it is with pseudo-“elite” deadheads such as Ben Wallace (former Con MP) and the Labour Friends of Israel drones. I think not.

In any case, few if any will now decide not to vote for Reform UK just because of a few comments about NATO.

I agree, in principle, with the vast majority of that, about 90%. Only social nationalism will actually “do de job”, though. Reform UK is too finance-capitalistic, too pro-Israel, not quite what I would ever support as a destination (rather than as a means to an end).

Germany is no longer the same” – Orban chastised Berlin for the failure of migration policy.

Before his visit to Berlin, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban criticized modern Germany. He said that the country had even lost its former smell, clearly making fun of its problem with migration, writes The Daily Telegraph. “Germany no longer has the taste it used to have. She doesn’t smell like she used to anymore. This whole Germany is no longer the Germany that our grandparents and parents set as an example for us,” the politician said in an interview before a meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

Orbán also said that Germany was once a country of “order,” “well-organized work” and “hard-working people.” But now, he noted, citing the German newspaper Die Welt, Germany is a “colorful, changed, multicultural world” where migrants are “no longer guests.” “This is a very big change,” summed up the head of the Hungarian government.

Late thoughts about GE 2024

If reports are to be believed, 20% of voters have either not made up their minds as to how they will vote, or have not decided whether they will vote at all.

The 20% equates to thousands of eligible voters in every constituency.

It is also reported that as many as 175 seats are in very close contest now, more than a quarter of all seats.

I have speculated previously whether there is, or is not, a bloc of “secret Reform UK voters”, people who may not admit to leaning towards Reform UK if asked. I do not know the answer to that, and neither do I know its size if it exists, but if that bloc does exist, and if it mostly votes Reform UK on the day, then all bets are off, because there just might be a political meteorite strike on the 4th of July…

Sidelights on English life

A very English murder

https://www.advertiserandtimes.co.uk/news/suspected-murder-victim-finally-laid-to-rest-after-500-years-9367453/

16th century possible murder victim laid to rest at St Mary the Virgin, in South Baddesley, after remains found on Sowley Beach in the New Forest.

A suspected New Forest murder victim was this week buried in a “once-in-a-lifetime” service, some 500 years after he met his end.

The remains of the unknown man were laid to rest about five centuries after he was initially disposed of in a “clandestine” fashion, as revealed by the A&T.

The 25-minute ceremony took place two years after his medieval-era skeleton was found in mysterious circumstances on a beach near South Baddesley.

[Steve West/A&T]

As reported in the A&T, after a lengthy investigation, archaeologists have since concluded that “foul play” may explain how he came to be there.

Tuesday’s special funeral took place at St Mary the Virgin, in South Baddesley. Around 50 attendees – comprising nearby residents, those who had been involved in research and local historians – came to pay their respects.

Mourners were greeted and handed a leaflet titled ‘The Funeral and Burial of the 16th Century Man Known only to God’.

The Very Rev Gordon Wynne conducted the service, which included a medieval hymn before the handmade wooden casket was buried in the church graveyard.

The funeral comes after police were alerted in May 2022 by local resident Graham Coulter who helped excavate the human remains after half a skull became exposed in the mud near the mouth of Lymington River.

Speaking after the ceremony, the chartered surveyor, who lives in Lymington, said: “I think it’s a nice reflection on Christianity and mankind. “It’s very moving. It’s nice people turned up to give him a proper send-off.”

The rare remains – of which 80% of the body was still present – were recovered from Sowley Beach. They were given a radiocarbon dating estimating them to have been buried in AD1450-1650.

An osteoarchaeologist who studied the 5ft 4in (1.63m) skeleton concluded it was likely to have been a 20 to 25-year-old adult male.

The full report is a good read, though it is disappointing to see that the senior archaeologist at the local council thinks that 1450-1650 comes within the “mediaeval” period. Either the Renaissance or, just about, the early Enlightenment.

It was amusing somehow to read that a person holidaying in the area, and who attended that religious service, was one Kathryn Tudor! Like something from The Morning of the Magicians [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Morning_of_the_Magicians].

Mrs. Tudor, however, is another who seems to imagine that the period in question was “mediaeval” (as does the local newspaper). Our English education must be to blame. G.K. Chesterton expressed a similar irritation to mine via his fictional Father Brown detective-priest, and that was a century ago.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._K._Chesterton; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Brown.

Anyway, a murder case too late for Brother Cadfael [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadfael], and yet far too early for Inspector Morse [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inspector_Morse_(TV_series)], Poirot [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercule_Poirot], or even Sherlock Holmes [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherlock_Holmes].

Have I identified an historical gap in the market for detectives in literature? 1450 to 1650. I have never heard of a fictional detective operating in those centuries.

Well, that story is a delightful English vignette. Somehow charming, intriguing, and unsullied by contact with too much of England in 2024. More like something out of M.R. James [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M._R._James].

A second haul of alcohol has been stolen from a Lymington store, which has now seen more than £1,000 worth taken over the two incidents.

As reported by the A&T yesterday (Thursday) 21 bottles of champagne valued at £717 were taken from Marks & Spencer on St Thomas Street on Tuesday 30th April, and CCTV pictures were released of a pair wanted by police.

Now officers have made a second appeal over an incident at the same store between 1.10pm and 1.40pm on Wednesday 15th May, when the eight bottles of champagne and spirits valued at £326 were taken.

Interesting-sounding piece by dissident scientist/thinker Rupert Sheldrake; unfortunately, it is behind a paywall.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Sheldrake

https://www.sheldrake.org/

How time flies. When I first heard of Rupert Sheldrake, in the early 1980s, he was a still-youthful 39 or 40, and I was in my mid-twenties. Now he is 81, nearly 82, incredibly, and I myself am no longer young (67).

Sheldrake was a touchstone for many. The editor of Nature described his work as literal “heresy“, and pretty much said that his books should be burned: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Sheldrake#%22A_book_for_burning?%22. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Maddox#Sheldrake_editorial,_1981.

I think it’s dangerous that people should be allowed by our liberal societies to put that kind of nonsense into currency” [John Maddox].

You can see the kind of thinking that leads to those people who doubt orthodox views, whether re. “climate change” aka “global warming”, or re. the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, or other matters, being pilloried, while others (msm talking heads, scribblers etc) parrot System orthodoxy, and say that the dissidents or freethinkers should be incarcerated, deprived of medical services, bankrupted etc.

Who has contributed more to science and to this country, Sheldrake, or Maddox? I say Sheldrake.

Incidentally, I see that Sheldrake’s wife, Jill Purce, is also an interesting personality (I had not known of her until today): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jill_Purce.

The NHS has today been accused of providing ‘inadequate’ pain relief to women who have suffered agonising childbirths. 

Under health service guidance, new mums can be discharged just a day after undergoing a C-section or vaginal birth. 

But they are advised to take just paracetamol or ibuprofen to manage symptoms. 

Campaigners and doctors slammed the move, claiming it was yet another example of women’s pain issues in healthcare being ignored or underplayed.

[Daily Mail]

Still clapping?

The fact is that we now have health rationing in the UK. There has always been an element of that but it is now becoming impossible to ignore. It is not OK to simply repeat the old slogans of “our NHS” etc and how the rest of the world supposedly envies it (which is not true in respect of most advanced countries).

I am totally in favour of “free at point of use”, but the existing NHS model is just not working. Resourcing is one factor, but attitude and ethos is another one, and one that must be addressed. Also, pervasive maladministration.

The elephant in the room, though, is mass immigration. A population of 56 million when I was growing up has become one, officially, of 65 million, and probably 70 million in reality, with about a million more coming in every single year. Something has to give. Various things are giving, are cracking. Health provision is one of those.

Look at Islington North. Symbolic. The very constituency represented for 41 years by a white man who is also a socialist (like Jack London, though Jack London said “I am a socialist, but a white man first“, unlike Corbyn…) and who was Leader of the Labour Party.

Ha ha! Has the little Indian money-juggler somehow failed to understand that, under “Conservative” misgovernment, immigration is running at about a million a year now, out of which “only” about 50,000 are coming here on small boats (in reality, often ferried in by UK Border Force, RNLI, and Royal Navy)?

Has Sunak not understood that 80% of “asylum-seekers”, even those entering in backs of trucks or on rubber boats, are eventually given “Leave to Remain” under a system and legal framework which came from the 1950s and is now totally ridiculous and out of date ?

No, Sunak knows all that. He just hopes that the British people do not.

Labour, of course, will just do the same but in a different way, by allowing almost all to enter the UK “legally”. Reality? No difference in terms of end-result.

Persons aged 16 are far more likely to vote Labour, at present (about 90%); thus Labour hopes to entrench its likely large majority of 2024 in 2029.

Man proposes, God disposes“, though. Those 16-18 y-o voters of 2024, and their successors, might go another way completely after 5 years of (as I firmly expect) useless and yet repressive Starmer-Labour government.

On the wider point, if Goodwin is correct and Starmer intends to prevent any real democratic revolt against his planned “woke” tyranny, then he must expect the consequences. As John F. Kennedy said, “those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable“.

Imagine, if you will, Britain in 2034, after 10 years of Starmer-Labour.

A population of about 80 million or more, more non-European than white, at least in the main cities and towns; the country in an irreversible economic slide, with pay very low, and with State benefits equally low and restricted to ever-smaller groups; pensions not keeping pace with inflation; the roads scarcely repaired; the NHS even worse than under the “Conservatives”, and become a world leader in…waiting lists, poor treatment, and negligence; ever-greater numbers of blacks and browns (etc) flooding in, but the numbers officially concealed; Jewish-Zionist supremacism ever-more evident, but any criticism muzzled by even more restrictive and repressive “hate speech” laws.

Needless to say, by 2034, let alone 2044, the central areas of the cities will have become almost no-go areas for real Brits, as crime and disorder take hold. London is already halfway there.

In those circumstances, any measures taken by the British people themselves would be justified.

So that writes off the votes of the tiny minority of the young who might have voted Con. Beyond that, this is not a serious policy idea, more an attempt to shore up the collapsing Con vote among those 70+.

National Service ended over 60 years ago (gradually from 1957, though anyone born after 30 September 1939 was exempted). The last call-up was at the end of 1960; the last conscriptee was discharged in 1963.

In other words, only those (some) people of 85+, and who served under legal compulsion, would still be alive today.

Incidentally, who do you think will be taking all available jobs while the UK-born 18-21 y-o contingent are polishing boots, being beasted on assault courses, or being taught how to shoot hostile targets and not the local farmworkers? That’s right— the recent immigrants.

Just the way to achieve “community cohesion”…

This is some kind of pathetic appeal to misplaced nostalgia, designed (perhaps stupidly) to appeal to the very elderly (most of whom still vote Con anyway).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_the_United_Kingdom#After_1945

Quite right. Why should any young British men suffer and die (or live on, crippled) for the interests of Israel and NWO/ZOG?

You will not get much of interest from the likes of that “Akunjee” character.

Only the most awake (not “woke”) people understand that the NWO/ZOG System has chosen Starmer as its puppet to become an “elected” (via rigged selection and election procedures, FPTP voting etc) dictator, casting Britain into the pit of migration invasion, mass race-mixing and mixed breeding, and gigantic repression on free speech, dwarfing anything yet seen.

I still cannot understand why Sunak went out in the pouring rain to announce GE 2024. Was he trying to show the population that he is stoic, or a tough guy of some kind? What it said to me is that he is an absolute idiot, for all his paper qualifications; someone who does not know enough to put on a raincoat when it is raining hard, or at least have someone hold an umbrella over him. Someone such as that has not the basic nous to be Prime Minister.

Actually, what is the point of “National Service” even if the scheme could be enforced? In any serious war with Russia (the scenario constantly being pushed; no other exists), there will probably be a nuclear exchange before very long. The UK would be a, perhaps the, prime target for Russian attack. The “National Service” “chocolate soldiers” would be but pillars of ash long before being deployed anywhere outside the UK.

Come to think of it, how exactly would UK troops on any large scale be deployed? Both the air force and navy are now very small, and the air lift capacity very limited as well. As for the Royal Navy, its new aircraft carrier could carry a large number of troops, but it is not even defended by many naval fighter aircraft. It would probably be sunk long before it got to the Black Sea or Baltic.

This is all nonsense, worthy of some idiot such as Gavin Williamson, that deadhead: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/02/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-gavin-williamson-story/.

I was out early today, before 0700 hrs, and the English countryside was arguably at its best in the fresh breeze and sun of the early summer (though I also very much love the autumn). How terrible if those green trees and sculptured ranks of hedges and topiary were to become a charred and irradiated wasteland, all because of a completely unnecessary and contrived war with Russia…

Myerson’s defaults were surely worse than those attributed to me in 2016, yet I was disbarred (it later turned out, unlawfully as well as wrongly) because I tweeted a mere 5 supposedly “offensive” tweets or retweets (out of over 150,000, over about 6 years). Justice? I think not. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

Jew-Zionist hypocrite Myerson, whose recent evidence on oath as a witness on the losing side of a significant legal case [Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon, and Cantor] was given little if any weight by a High Court judge, should be removed in short order as Recorder (p/t judge), and also disbarred, in my opinion.

Incidentally, Myerson belongs to the very organization that complained (via another Jew barrister, of whom I had previously never even heard) about me in 2014— “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”]; he also belongs to the malicious and conspiratorial “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which was behind other contrived and malicious complaints against me, such as the one that resulted in my being put on trial in November 2023.

As to Mark Lewis, he is an appallingly bad (bad in more than one sense) lawyer. He should be struck off the solicitors’ roll.

Lewis was always a self-publicist first and foremost. The Jewish lobby so embedded in the “British” msm has always given him a free ride, publicizing any legal successes (mostly very easy wins, such as the “Jack Monroe” defamation suit against Katie Hopkins), but keeping silent about the many times when Lewis has failed.

As previously blogged, I (unlike the seemingly well-meaning James Wilson) have no sympathy for the Jew-Zionist defendants. One has committed suicide, the other two are now as good as bankrupt, with one apparently likely to lose his family house, unless (and here’s the rub) he sues Mark Lewis, and possibly/probably the firm of which Lewis is a partner, Patron Law, in professional negligence and/or otherwise.

I agree with Goodwin. What Mackinlay is suffering and has suffered, I should not wish on (most of) my worst enemies. However, it is not wrong or in bad taste to note that, throughout his time as MP, Mackinlay has voted, consistently, in Parliament to reduce social security/”welfare” benefits, including those paid to the sick and disabled.

Mackinlay and his wife have high incomes, and many “perks” etc. Many sick and disabled people struggle by without such privilege. I wonder whether his recent experiences have in any way changed his outlook on the life-challenges facing less-affluent people in the UK?

No mention of exploitation by the Jewish-Zionist element, though? Quelle surprise…I suppose that that would be part of the last thing mentioned by Goodwin, to be very kind about it.

Yet the Jew-Zionist lawyers so prominent in the UK still quibble about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, i.e. that such actions are not “war crimes”. Really?

Several members of the North Atlantic Alliance are already training soldiers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in that country, said Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kalas in an interview with the “Financial Times” .

If a Russian shell hits the training personnel, it will not trigger Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which provides for a collective response in the event of an armed attack on one or more member states of the Alliance, Callas said.

We remind you that the Russian side has repeatedly emphasized that the delivery of weapons to Ukraine and the training of Ukrainian soldiers, which the West is doing, only prolongs the conflict and does not change the situation on the battlefield.”

Which would be the correct metaphor for what some NATO states are doing? “Playing with fire”? “Re-arranging the deckchairs on the Titanic”?

Simon Myerson

Regular readers will have seen material recently about Simon Myerson, the Jew-Zionist lawyer who is both barrister and Recorder (p/t judge), and whose sworn testimony as “witness” apparently failed to sway the judge in the recent case of Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon and Cantor .

See —re. the above— previous blog posts and/or the tweets of James Wilson, an academic who was the chosen prey of a pack of Jewish Zionists, but who beat them soundly in court (one defendant killed himself, and the other two are apparently now insolvent, with at least one likely to have to sell his family home to satisfy the Claimant’s damages and legal costs, that defendant having apparently been “misadvised” by the egregious and self-publicizing Israel-based solicitor, Mark Lewis, who may now be sued in professional negligence).

See James Wilson’s tweets here: https://x.com/per_incuriam2.

I have just noticed that, even just taking today as example, Myerson has, by time of writing (1706) tweeted some 28 times today, of which 13 were in the past hour. Is this normal (for tweeters generally)? I think not.,

Devout Christian doctor, 68, who punched dementia-sufferer in the head after being racially abused is the fifth health worker from single hospital to be jailed in the last year. Dr Xowi Mwimbi, 68, has been jailed for 12 months for punching the patient.

Staggeringly, Mwimbi is the third health professional to be jailed for mistreating patients at the Lancashire hospital in the past 12 months.

Last December a nurse and a healthcare worker at Blackpool Victoria Hospital’s stroke unit were jailed for ill-treatment after a court heard patients were sedated for an ‘easy shift’ and their own ‘amusement’.

A fourth member of staff, ‘predatory’ healthcare assistant Hernando Puno, 52, was jailed for nine months last May for sexually assaulting female colleagues.

A fifth was locked up for stealing medication.

Parliament is full, and the “main” (i.e. System) parties are full of superficially “moderate” politicians who are almost always, in reality, self-serving shits.

For my views about LBC, a radio station (ultimately) owned by a very pro-Israel Jew, see previous days’ blog posts, or use the search box on the blog.

…and look at the “Israeli” police: at least one shown is African, presumably a descendant of the “Jews” flown from Ethiopia by MOSSAD and the CIA in the 1980s and 1990s; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_Israel#Immigration_to_Israel.

Apparently, there are about 155,000 Ethiopian “Jews” in Israel today. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_Israel. Half of them were born and brought up there. Their historical origins are rather obscure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_Israel#Origins. Some people believe that the African “Jews” were slaves or servants of Jews resident in ancient Egypt, and took up their customs, but that theory has as little evidence, or less, than numerous other theories.

Those Israeli police are even more free with their swinging batons than are the traffic cops in Moscow, the GAI (as was). The Israeli police truncheons seem to be longer than the Russian ones (or the old British type, now replaced by extendable metal ones). The Russian traffic cops usually swing their batons menacingly as they stand in the street, as if just waiting for a chance to use them; the Israeli batons seem more like the NYPD “nightsticks”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Directorate_for_Traffic_Safety.

From the people that brought humanity the atom bomb“…

Try referencing “their” behaviour, and see how quickly the censorship kicks in, whether on LBC, Sky News, BBC, in Parliament, or in an ordinary court of law.

Here’s a bet. Radio loudmouth James O’Brien will never once say that LBC, his employer, is owned by companies owned by a Jewish heir to a fortune. He will never say that simple truth. What odds will you take?

Never be fooled by msm talking heads such as James O’Brien; they are bought and paid for. House-serfs. When the “You Know Who” cracks the whip, they jump…

Jews often say or talk, or write, or tweet about how Palestinian Arabs should draw a line under the fact that the Jews stole most of “Israel”, particularly during the 1948 “Nakba”, in the following years, and engaged in ethnic cleansing; whole villages killed by Jewish execution squads; men, women, and children shot after having been restrained by having their hands and/or feet tied.

The Palestinian Arabs, say the Jews, should “move on”, forget about the Jews’ ethnic cleansing, the massacres of civilians, the theft of land, houses, apartments etc, and make another life for themselves in Jordan, or Lebanon, and not keep talking about the catastrophe visited upon them.

Strangely enough, the very same Jews who say that never shut up about the events of the 1930s and especially early 1940s, when they say Jews were massacred etc by Germans, Poles, Ukrainians, Baltic people etc. In fact, a whole industry of books, films, often “faction” (fiction disguised as “fact”, or “near-fact”) has grown up with those events (true or not) as its subject-matter.

When he was first elected, I thought that Johnny Mercer would be a breath of fresh air in the Westminster monkeyhouse— ex-officer, served in a war zone (Afghanistan) and, I think, saw combat. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mercer_(politician).

I thought that Mercer would bring both integrity and commonsense thinking to the Westminster Bubble. Sadly, not so. His expenses have been questioned at times, and he seems to engage in private business activities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mercer_(politician)#Expenses. There is at least an impression of venality.

Having said that, Mercer’s vote-share has increased from 37.6% in 2015, through 51.9% in 2017, to 60.7% in 2019. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plymouth_Moor_View_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

Half of them cannot find their own country on a map of the world. I lived there. I know them as well as most Brits do. You are talking about a country (USA) where a tiny minority are incredibly well-informed (maybe 1%, being diplomatic about it), where about 5% are reasonably well-informed, and where maybe 94% know very little about anything beyond their everyday lives and situations. The 94% are easily manipulated by the American msm which is mostly owned, staffed, and influenced by “the usual suspects”.

In other words, opinion polling of the American people reveals, to an even greater extent than polling of British people, what the people have been spoonfed by the (((msm))).

National Socialism in Germany promoted health: physical health, moral and ethical health, spiritual health, cultural health, and the healthy evolution of the whole people or Volk in a Volksgemeinschaft or folk-community. They cut away unhealthy cancerous growths in the body politic, and in society as a whole.

Con and Lab are both nests of traitors, both parties being (in reality) signed up to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

Anyone’s guess, as far as the 2024 Westminster election is concerned (GE 2024), but my take is that tens of millions of British people are just sick of experiencing how nothing works any more in this country, from local right up to national level. They just want all this utter shite to stop. Labour will probably be unable to do much better, but what people want now, first of all, is to put the Conservative Party on a pyre, and then set light to it.

As to “how low” will the Con vote go at GE 2024, my view, formed over the past year or two, stands at present somewhere below 20%. The latest YouGov poll puts the Cons at about 18%.

My use of Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] on those figures puts the Con MP cadre after GE 2024 at 31 MPs (Labour 519, LibDem 58). On that basis, the Conservative Party will not even be the official Opposition.

Even if those figures are wildly out, it looks as if 2024 may be the swansong for the Con Party as both “the natural party of government” and even as the natural main opposition party.

So the younger generation(s) prefer white bread? Very unhealthy.

Britain can no longer protect itself from missiles and drones.

The UK is “increasingly vulnerable” to the threat of missile and drone attacks. Decades of savings have undermined its air defenses, experts warn. London has highly effective means, but they are no longer enough to protect the vast amount of critical infrastructure across the country, as well as troops abroad, Sky News reports.

The situation is exacerbated by the increasing quality and quantity of missiles and drones developed by hostile states such as Russia, China, Iran and North Korea.

The Royal Air Force currently has just nine squadrons of fast jets, down from 30 at the end of the Cold War. The Royal Navy’s six Type 45 destroyers are equipped with the country’s only missile defense systems. But only three of those ships are “available for operations,” including one in the Middle East, according to a Navy spokesman.

On land, the military has about six Sky Saber ground-based air defense systems, each capable of shooting down multiple missiles. But at least two of them – and perhaps more – are deployed overseas, and those in the UK have a very limited range.

Britain benefits from its geographical location, with many European NATO countries located between its shores and Russia. However, the air defense of many European countries was also reduced in order to save money after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Sky News notes.

True in part, but incomplete. Slavery existed well before the 7thC in the Middle East: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery#Middle_East.

Incidentally, slave caravans would pass through the oasis of Siwa in Western Egypt, having travelled from Central Africa en route to the Mediterranean coast or the Nile Delta, as recently as the 1940s.

I myself spent a month in Siwa in 1998 (out of 3 months in Egypt that year). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siwa_Oasis.

Yes. One frequently sees Jews on Twitter etc [pretending to be] upset that “their family” died, or were displaced, or inconvenienced, during the early 1940s; people that those descended from them and alive today never knew, of course.

British or German people just do not weaponize (or, indeed, monetize via books, films, “reparations”, and “restitution”) their family histories in that way.

My own maternal grandfather [b.1901] was at Dunkirk in 1940, and later in Burma. My maternal grandmother [b.1900] lost two brothers in the First World War (both, I believe, captains of the Oxford and Bucks Light Infantry).

British (and German) people accept such events as historical, and do not constantly try to use them as tags on which to hang contemporary socio-political issues.

The question is, “replaced by what“?

I wonder whether he was the one who (ultimately) ran agents Epstein and [Ghislaine] “Maxwell” when they were still in play? See also https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/08/11/the-jew-epstein-and-prince-andrew-the-british-royal-family-has-another-scandal-maybe-its-time-to-just-get-rid-of-them/.

Strange minor incident. Taking a nap this afternoon, after having had a very early start today, I was awoken by a knock at the door of our tiny flat (the days of country houses and Caribbean villas being now long gone). I heard my wife agreeing to donate to the county’s air ambulance charity.

I was rather suspicious about the man at the door wanting bank details “to set up a direct debit“, so intervened and told the fellow that we would give another way. He left with superficial politeness; I could see that he was unhappy at being challenged (though I am not particularly aggressive).

I was concerned, so thought to call the police on their 101 non-emergency service. It then took something like 20 minutes to get beyond the recorded messages and just to get to talk to a human being (a pleasant-sounding lady) from the police and give her the details.

I also tried, twice, to telephone the air ambulance charity people themselves but, after an initial recorded message, was informed “your call cannot be transferred” and an unobtainable signal.

I looked up what the CEO of that charity gets paid: about £119,000 a year.

That small incident was typical of the way in which everything in this country is so screwed and just does not work. For a start, the air ambulance should be an official service, not a ragbag of private charities across the UK.

Secondly, it should be illegal for fundraisers to go around knocking on doors like itinerant gypsies. The public need to be protected.

Thirdly, how is it that the CEO of such a small charity (30 employees) gets a fairly generous salary? Yet their only public telephone number is non-operational. It’s poor.

There are too many boondoggles around, to use the American phrase. The “Major Tom” nonsense, with the quasi-fraudulent daughter and son-in-law, has surely brought that to public attention.

Fourthly, the police are almost absent when you need them. At the same time, the county police have apparently spent many many hours snooping upon and “monitoring” this blog, as they do the social media posts of others. The police need to get back to doing actual, real police work.

As a matter of fact, the Police and Crime Commissioner for the county will be elected this week. At present, it is some useless and enormous woman, a Conservative Party member.

Britain 2024— terminally sick.

Bravo! End the war.

If the Kiev regime imagines that a new army of forced and unwilling recruits will save the day, it is very much mistaken.

When the weather is warmer, and the Stavka gives the order, it is likely that the Russian armies in the east will start to roll, covered by massive artillery barrages and air cover. Any new forces recruited by the Kiev regime will simply be rolled over.
