It has been said before on the blog, but…that, believe it or not, is our “Deputy Prime Minister”, a thick-as-two-short-planks woman with no cultural or intellectual background to speak of, and whose leisure pursuits (preferably paid for by others) include noisy brainless “clubs” in Ibiza, “vaping”, being tattooed (it appears), and God-knows-what else.
Sometimes even I find it hard to believe how far this country has fallen.
Looking at Twitter/X, it seems that many are assuming that Angela Rayner will replace Starmer as Labour Party leader eventually. Really? I have no time for Starmer-stein, but…Angela Rayner? Well, hopefully, Labour is going down to historic defeat in a few years, so the “Deputy Prime Minister” will never actually occupy 10, Downing Street.
On the wider picture, I now find this country one that, increasingly, I do not recognize, and filled with the sort of people with whom I have nothing at all in common beyond breathing and other core necessities.
Stories like this are double-edged since they present what should be totally obvious already as needing confirmation, and so implicitly throw doubt on other equally obvious claims that are not validated by Israel.

“When it comes to Israeli intransigence regarding Palestinians, Netanyahu alone is not the problem,” argues @dahliasc. “Polls show that, like their current leaders, the large majority of Israeli Jews do not empathize with the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza.”…

Trump's DOJ has transferred a woman out of the facility with Ghislaine Maxwell after she criticized her being there as a sex offender in an interview. The woman has been sent to another facility with violent offenders. You can't criticize Trump's sex offender friends now. pic.twitter.com/JvxR6GxT5F
Beyond the surface chatter about sex trafficking etc, there is of course the involvement of one or more elements of Israeli Intelligence with the Jew Epstein. Ghislaine Maxwell is half-Jew, and her father is said to have been the main MOSSAD agent in Europe (and was eventually buried on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, apparently a signal honour, though Ghislaine Maxwell is said to believe that MOSSAD killed her horrible father after he outlived his usefulness): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Maxwell#Mossad_allegations;_Vanunu_case.
Indeed, she has nothing, beyond an unmerited position and its consequent high salary and expenses (Rayner has just bought another property, a third home, this time in Hove, Sussex).

The Notting Hill Carnival, born as a tiny entity in 1966, and which still only involved 500 participants or so in the early 1970s, has become a monster. It is actually horrible.
I went once, out of curiosity. That would have been sometime in the early to mid 1980s, but I forget which exact year. My impressions: unpleasant and unpleasantly loud amplified “music” of some sort; costumed performers dancing on the back of trucks; nowhere to get a break from it, or the hot sun; pressing crowds, mostly though not entirely blacks. I recall buying a small bottle of not very pleasant palm wine for about twice what you might expect. I also recall having to walk all the way back to Little Venice because the Underground stations for miles around were shut for safety reasons, and there were of course no buses or taxis anywhere.
Never again.
In fact, most English people, including most local residents and business owners, would like to bin the Notting Hill Carnival, but the authorities are aware that that would cause black riots which would probably devastate half of London, so “Carnival”, attended now by 2 million from all over the country and beyond, still happens, tolerated not out of choice but because the authorities and English people are effectively blackmailed. A sort of parallel or metaphor for the unenthusiastic toleration of non-white populations in general in this country.
Incidentally, the lady tweeting above knows Notting Hill and surrounding areas rather well, and usually supports mass immigration. I suppose it is different when you yourself, or your friends and family, are affected…

No, you don’t. It is a question of a febrile surrounding atmosphere, and “a nod and a wink”, and/or legal careerists doing what they presumed was “expected” of them.
You see this time and again in England. For example, the heavy sentencing of those convicted of “antisemitic”-related offences: Alison Chabloz, Jez Turner, Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch).
The same is true of the msm, when “antisemitism” is discussed or, rather, not discussed but pro-Jew-Zionism used as an a priori viewpoint.
Look at what happened during the “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic. Police, courts, lawyers, doctors, msm talking heads and scribblers, all on the same propaganda page.
Keir Starmer did not openly “direct” heavy-handed policing and subsequent sentencing last year, though he came pretty close to that in his public utterings. No, we are talking about lawyers and judges apprehending what the System (which employs them) wants.
Very English….the same was the case in my free speech trials, both in the magistrates’ court (2023-2024) and before the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal (2016).
See. Exactly as I said. No issue of fact is relevant. When one is presented it's just dismissed with a wild conspiracy theory. https://t.co/xp0F4YYfSC
I rarely support Allison Pearson, a foolish scribbler tied-in with the Jew-Zionist extremists, but she is basically correct here.
Because Starmer politicalised the justice system in his national TV address. And the judiciary bowed to it. The government and judiciary are meant to be independent of each other but Starmer's statement on TV changed that. Not sure why Dan doesn't realise that

What? And hand them all refugee status to release them fully into our society? So you can put together some BS press release and say you've emptied the hotels?
So hundreds of millions will now be spent on “processing” the cases. About 80% will be rubberstamped OK. The untermenschen will then be released into “the community”, i.e. given free accommodation (probably ahead of most English/British people), social security/”welfare” monies, and will then be a permanent millstone around the necks of the people. Many cannot even speak English to a rudimentary level, most have no qualifications of any sort, most cannot drive legally. What jobs can they do? Few, even if they want to, which most do not.
These “asylum-seekers” (or grantees, once approved) will be, at best, permanent parasites here. Some may also do cash-in-hand work such as illegal taxi-driving, pizza delivery etc. Quite a few will take part in various forms of criminal activity. A (relative) few will be active terrorists.

The fanatical Jew-Zionists cannot see that, because their whole world-view is toxic, poisonous, self-interested.
The same thing can be seen, for example, when the Israeli planes bomb a hospital in Gaza or elsewhere, killing and horribly wounding hundreds of women and children, and the Jew-Zionist fanatics find out that a Hamas or Hezbollah platoon (or whatever) was hiding in a basement of that hospital and say “see, we were justified in bombing the hospital!“…

“Although quite shocking that it has been revealed in court the young mum stabbed at the Nothing Hill Carnival is still in a coma and may lose a leg, I was delighted to see Shakiel Thibou, 20, in the dock accused of her attempted murder.
Which brings me to the other 348 arrests at the Carnival. 72 hours have now passed since it ended and if the prosecutors had acted at the same speed as the Southport riots they would all be charged and sentenced to lengthy periods in jail by now.
Just to remind you that 61 officers were assaulted during the “Carnival”. There were 8 stabbings, including that of Cher Maxine , who lost a huge amount of blood with one of her lungs collapsing after the attack.
There were 53 held for assault on emergency workers and 72 arrests for possessing an offensive weapon. There were plentyof other charges too numerous to mention. But this time there’s no directive from Starmer for fierce retribution. Why is that? Not so much two-tier prosecuting as two-race prosecuting.
Starmer, speaking at the summit with the German Chancellor, was very careful with his words when questioned by a reporter. He said; “ I will condemn any violence from anyone in the same terms as I have done for many, many years.”
That is a completely different approach in the wake of the rioting which kicked off following the Southport murders. No mention of the full force of the law. No mention of 24 hour courts. No Cobra emergency meetings. Just another criminal Carnival.
Nothing to see here, except stabbed Londoners and injured police and emergency workers. And definitely not a word from Mayor Khan who couldn’t even be bothered to warn that if large scale crime persisted the Carnival would have to be shut. Had this been a white gathering of such large number with that amount of crime would Labour politicians been so anxious to keep their heads down. I don’t think so.”

Imagine a city of between 500,000 and 1,500,000 in the UK, somewhere such as Birmingham (nearly 1M population), Liverpool (nearly 900,000 population), Nottingham (730,000), Sheffield (635,000), Glasgow, Edinburgh, Bristol, Leicester, and others.
Well, each of those cities have a roughly equivalent population to the influx into the UK of mostly non-Europeans every year. Many have smaller populations.
Only a lunatic, or someone completely brainwashed by System multikulti propaganda, could think that such a situation is in any way sustainable in a country the size of the UK. Housing, pay, State benefits (including pensions), rail, roads, education, public order, even water supply.

1) Spend more on “public services” – aka make way for more Night Czars and people who will spend your money on rainbow kayaking/ drag queen life drawing classes (real life examples of council spending).
2) Do nothing about factors increasing demand on services – eg migration (legal and illegal) – while building nothing and rarely expanding infrastructure. Then act surprised when prices increase (“rent controls now!”), as well as demonising anyone who points out that migration is a form of demand. They must be a bigot, after all, for worrying about the UK spending approximately £10 billion a year on accommodation for asylum seekers – paired with runaway demand. Rich people can pay for it, or something; anyway, doesn’t demand just vanish into thin air?!
3) Allow eco loons to impose anti-car measures on some of the most economically productive and in-demand workers; eg plumbers, builders and others with practical skills who need a car for their job. Ensure that they lose jobs from sitting in traffic and are subject to punitive measures for not being able to cycle a new bath tab to a client. Add red tape as much as possible to everything. Get a small business to prove its commitment to environment and diversity before it’s actually broken-even.
4) Hire for every state sector job through the primary prism of immutable characteristics.
5) Ignore what jobs are in demand – eg. practical/ technology – and continue sending droves of young people to university to do subjects that bear no relation to what skills employers need. Remember, young people should be able to “follow their dreams” – all of them! – and anyone who says don’t do a degree in decolonising dinosaurs is anti working-class. Besides, if Brits won’t do jobs, we’ll just hire from abroad, so that demand for housing can increase, and with it rental costs – which young people will then blame landlords/ lack of rent controls for.
And voila = growth!“
I agree with pretty much all of that.
Please can someone explain this to me. Why do (most) Left wingers seem oblivious to supply and demand? It genuinely baffles me. Housing is the most obvious example. How can advocates of rent controls not see these would further limit supply or how migration is a type of "demand"?
Most people “think” via their feeling, i.e. via emotion, or via undisciplined will. They want to believe, so they do believe. Someone of the Zoe Gardner (near) “open borders” type is a typical example.
Most MPs now are enemies of the people. All of the present Cabinet are enemies of the people.
Left wing economics makes 0 sense. How can grown adults think that endlessly paying for “public services” – aka the likes of Amy Lame and eco loons making sure no one can drive to work (plumbers/ builders can surely cycle!) – means growth.https://t.co/kJ4UxC5jvk
People like Amy Lamé (a crazed American lesbian appointed —God knows why— as London “Nightlife Tsar” or something similar) are just a waste of space. She should be sacked and made to dig turnips, plant trees, or the like.
Incidentally, I seem to recall she tweeted unpleasantly to me about 8 years ago, when I still had a Twitter account.
“Public services” I support wholeheartedly, if they are useful. I am talking about (proper) police, fire brigades, public health workers (real ones, not “Covid crazies”), parks and park wardens, litter sweepers, public swimming pools, water supplies etc.
“In 2024, Amy Lamé was awarded her fourth pay rise a few days after the 2024 London Mayor Election, in which her pay for her 3 days a week role was increased to £132,846.[27]
Her role and the ability for the London Assembly to hold her to account has been a source of confusion, given that she is classed as a GLA member of staff[28] and therefore cannot be scrutinised by the Liberal Democrats, Conservatives or the Greens in the London Assembly.”

Banana Boat
I first saw this amusing short documentary on American public TV in 1991 or 1992 (it was released in 1991). About a group of passengers on one of the Geest “banana boats” that (I think still) take cars and other items out from the UK to the West Indies, and then return with millions of bananas.
Such ships carry passengers because the income is a welcome extra, but they cannot carry more than (I think) 12, because any greater number would require the ship to have a doctor on board.

Thoughts about “two-tier Keir”, two-tier “justice” etc
I often look at local newspapers online. Sometimes, you can get a better idea of where UK society is from those sources than you do from the national Press.
I just saw a few reports in the local Press, from several places in the south of England, which must surely stagger anyone who has observed the almost Stalinist sentences recently handed down to those who have been involved directly or indirectly in the recent protests or so-called “riots”.
Example: a mixed-race individual described as “a powerful thug” lost his jacket in a bar. He demanded that the barman find it. He then punched the barman and, despite other staff intervening, did so again. Door staff detained him after a struggle, the police arrived, and he then punched a policeman in the face. Previous offences of violence. Result? Non-custodial sentence.
Another example? “Traveller” (Irish tinker/”gypsy”) took police on a high-speed chase in a van. Much damage done, and some injury to members of the public. Tried to run off after he crashed. Uninsured. No driving licence. Multiple previous convictions. Result? Non-custodial sentence.
The recent sentencing for “political” or quasi-political “crimes” has mostly been a disgrace, and has actually shown up the System politicians, notably “two-tier” Keir, as being not strong (as they try to project) but fearful, and the System itself as brittle, without much resilience.
Incidentally, I was just thinking about that time, related in the New Testament, when Jesus Christ overturned the tables of the Jew moneychangers and did other “rebellious” actions, and scourged the moneychangers (at least symbolically):
And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables; And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house a house of merchandise.
And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
Now obviously the motivation of Jesus Christ was not the same as those “rioting” or protesting in the UK recently, but it could yet be described as “ideological” and/or “rebellious”, and certainly His actions were not that different from those of some of the recent defendants sentenced to imprisonment for having shouted insulting words, overturned cars, assaulted policemen and others etc.
Admittedly, one cannot imagine Jesus Christ looting a sausage-roll shop…
I nearly forgot to add that the said “tinker”, mentioned above, was sentenced to a non-custodial sentence partly because “he had to support” (I wonder how, exactly?) no less than 7 children, with another expected shortly.

Meanwhile, every single year, many millions more “migrants” (migrant-invaders) flood into Europe.

Chapter 1: Caroline Lucas claims there was no sense of English national identity until it was invented by the Tudors pic.twitter.com/jmoh16i8nb
Not entirely accurate, though not completely wrong either.
National identities across Europe developed, out of existing identities, in the earliest years of the 5th Post-Atlantean Age, that is, roughly, from 1400 AD.
Prior to that, someone might hold feudal power in more than one part of Europe, as the Plantagenet kings held sway in both England and parts of France.
The Renaissance recapitulated in a new way the 4th Post-Atantean Age (the Greco-Roman), and that 5th Age was at its beginning then. Joan of Arc was one major manifestation.
Once national identity strengthened, feudalism, with its system of fealty crossing other boundaries, waned. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fealty.
In England, the influences of the new form of identity, national identity stricto sensu, slowly developed from that time. The Renaissance was slightly delayed in coming to England, having originated in Italy. Later, in the Tudor period (i.e. from 1485), a greater sense of national identity grew, but the same or similar was happening all over Europe, and had already started to happen in Switzerland, particularly.
So Caroline Lucas, though wrong in the specifics (the Tudors did not “invent” English national identity), is not totally wrong inasmuch as that identity, as we now understand it, was to a large extent initially the product of the Tudor period.

Ukraine announces that Belarus has started deploying a large number of troops and military equipment near the border with Ukraine and that Wagner troops have been spotted there too.
Basically, 1,000+ people have now been arrested following the recent protests and connected minor “riots” (or violent outbreaks) here and there.
Many of those people have been charged, and many of those have been remanded in custody, meaning put into prison until trial (which might be as long as a year or more later, unless fast-tracked). Those who have pleaded guilty so far mostly seem to have been imprisoned anyway.
The fact is that many (probably almost all) of those imprisoned, either pending trial or after having pleaded guilty, are not in any way, even in the lay sense, “dangerous”. Many have no previous convictions, and even those who do (and the sentences of which have been reported after guilty pleas) have convictions mainly for non-violent offences (shoplifting, drugs etc).
What Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and (absurdly) Shabana Mahmood, have done is to release known and active criminals early (many non-white, and after they have completed only 40% of their sentences), in order to free up space which is now being used to incarcerate English people who are, almost all, not active criminals.
Those released early under that scheme will, many of them, re-offend within a fairly short space of time, whereas relatively few of those arrested in the aftermath of the recent protests will re-offend at all, ever, and certainly not in terms of violent disorder. That of course applies even more to those arrested/charged/imprisoned because they merely made comments, justified or otherwise, on social media.
It is beginning to look very much as though Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and the ridiculous Shabana Mahmood (currently posing as “Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice) have no idea what they are doing. To me, their over-reaction to the recent minor disorders that took place (by English people— those done by Roma Gypsies in Leeds, and Pakistanis in Birmingham etc, have gone largely unpunished) seems much like that of the Queen of Hearts in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: “Off with their heads!“
[“Off with their heads!“]
Incidentally, was there ever a “Lord Chancellor” and Justice Secretary less qualified? A moot point after some in recent years, I concede. However, Shabana Mahmood is an absurd choice for the role. She was only at the practising Bar for a few months, if that (after a year of pupillage), and then worked as a salaried gopher in a firm of solicitors, and only for a couple of years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabana_Mahmood#Early_life_and_career.
Shabana Mahmood’s entire legal career only lasted about 3-4 years.
She was probably appointed to placate the Pakistani Muslim element in the UK.
Pakistanis as such are now about 3% of the population; Muslims as a whole (many of which are also Pakistani but born in the UK) comprise 6% of the UK population now. Both anyway are significant voting blocs, and important in general political terms.
“Nearly early two weeks after its surprise incursion into Russia, Ukraine finds itself struggling to find a balance between seizing territory across the border in Kursk and losing it at the heart of the eastern front in central Donetsk.
On Friday, Ukraine’s commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, claimed advances were being made of up to two miles a day inside Russia, but Moscow’s forces have gained about three miles this month as the Kremlin bets heavily on capturing the hub of Pokrovsk.
In Pokrovsk, meanwhile, officials have stepped up civilian evacuations. Serhiy Dobryak, head of the city military administration, warned that Russian forces had “almost approached” the city and that alarm about its future was growing.
Until a year ago, Pokrovsk was considered safe enough to act as a regional base where journalists and aid workers could stay overnight. Its road and rail connections link the central city of Dnipro with Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Capturing it would in effect cut the part of Donetsk oblast still in Ukrainian hands in two.
There are persistent rumours that Col Emil Ishkulov, the popular commander of Ukraine’s 80th brigade, now among those involved in the incursion into Kursk, was removed from his position at the end of July because he was opposed to the incursion into Russia – unsure his unit had the strength for the task. At the time, soldiers from the unit issued an unsuccessful public appeal for him to be reinstated.
Sumy, which has a population of about 250,000, has remained busy and lively in the summer heat, though the noise of explosions from Russian glide bombs in the distance stepped up over last week. Its hospitals, though, have been filling up with frontline casualties, and an appeals for blood donations went out to help treat wounded soldiers a week ago. It took an hour for the need to be met.
The city has also received about 4,000 people fleeing the agricultural villages in the area towards the border in the north, many of whom plan to rent apartments.
In the border zone, six miles from the boundary, meanwhile, only a tiny handful of civilians and little functioning infrastructure remain. One shop with smashed windows was still selling groceries, but most places were boarded up. An aid agency, Global Empowerment Mission, supplies nearly 26,000 food rations every month because market supplies are absent, visiting frontline villages every week to distribute to the remaining population.“
[Guardian]
I recently examined this situation on the blog. My thoughts were that either Putin might push the incursion forces back using conventional military means, or blast the entire area from the air, destroying the Kiev-regime forces (as well as any unfortunate Russian and Ukrainian villagers still trying to live there).
Another possibility, less likely, would be a massive bombardment of either Kharkov or Kiev, using bombers and missiles.
Now, I have come to think that there is a fourth possibility, one which has roots in Russian and Soviet history.
When, as Tolstoy put it, in War and Peace, “the forces of Western Europe invaded Russia” in 1812 (the forces commanded by Napoleon were not all French, though about two-thirds were), the strategy adopted by the Russian leadership under Kutuzov, once he was appointed, was to withdraw and withdraw out of reach, while carrying out some limited flanking attacks and what we might now term “special operations”.
According to the preferred strategy, St. Petersburg, the capital, was protected both by troops and by distance, and so was never threatened by the Grande Armee. Moscow, however, was abandoned and set on fire.
Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow was famously disastrous, his armies all but destroyed by attritional flank attacks, cold, lack of food, and by disease.
Of the initial half million men, only about 100,000 made it back to France or other countries.
“On 24 June 1812 and subsequent days, the initial wave of the multinational Grande Armée crossed the Niemen River, marking the entry from the Duchy of Warsaw into Russia.
Employing extensive forced marches, Napoleon rapidly advanced his army of nearly half a million individuals through Western Russia, encompassing present-day Belarus, in a bid to dismantle the disparate Russian forces led by Barclay de Tolly and Pyotr Bagration totaling approximately 180,000–220,000 soldiers at that juncture.[21][22]
Despite losing half of his men within six weeks due to extreme weather conditions, diseases and scarcity of provisions, Napoleon emerged victorious in the Battle of Smolensk. However, the Russian Army, now commanded by Mikhail Kutuzov, opted for a strategic retreat, employing attrition warfare against Napoleon compelling the invaders to rely on an inadequate supply system, incapable of sustaining their vast army in the field.“
[Wikipedia]
In the German invasion and war of 1941-1945, the Wehrmacht advanced to within sight of central Moscow, but were then held and pushed back. Stalin was unwilling to abandon Moscow, the capital, for reasons of morale and administration.
However, elsewhere in European Russia, the Stavka (high command) allowed the Germans to advance and advance into the apparently limitless space (prostor, in the Russian word), as the German supply lines became elongated and eventually unable to supply enough food and ammunition; this came to a head particularly during the battle for Stalingrad.
Reverting to the Kursk situation in 2024, it can be seen that the operation was designed by Zelensky, against the advice of some of his commanders, as a public relations exercise. The suppliers of arms and vast amounts of Western taxpayers’ money had to be shown that the Kiev-regime forces were not beaten. Those forces achieved surprise, and, at first, considerable success.
The Kiev-regime forces were advancing several miles a day in that Kursk border region, but have probably now almost stopped.
Russian forces far to the south, in the Donbass, are advancing 1-3 miles a day, apparently. The Kiev-regime forces are outmannned and outgunned there, a situation made worse by the use of some experienced Ukrainian troops for the Kursk incursion.
What Putin could do (though it might be politically difficult) would be to do little but just about hold the line in the Kursk region, or even fall back on Kursk city (about 30-40 miles from the present front-line), while pounding the Kiev-regime supply lines and rear echelon areas. The Kiev regime forces do not have the manpower or ammunition etc to advance endlessly. Their tide may already have reached its fullest extent.
In other words, Putin could almost let those Kiev-regime forces in the Kursk region “die on the vine”, in MacArthur’s memorable phrase.
Once those Kiev regime forces are stuck in the Kursk region, or have retreated, or are destroyed, those forces will not be able to be deployed, or re-deployed, on the Donbass front. Even now, it looks as though Russian forces will soon split the Kiev-regime forces there into two. Once that results in further crumbling of the front, startling Russian advances may be seen, either in the next few months or next summer. All of Eastern Ukraine may fall to Russian forces in 2025.

So it seems that the “poor and victimized” Jewish couple, supposedly targeted by an American black comedian, then booed out of an Edinburgh Fringe comedy show by the irritated audience, were none other than Mark Lewis, the egregious self-promoting solicitor, and his wife/partner/carer Mandy Blumenthal. They made a big fuss about emigrating to Israel six years ago. They said that Britain was too “antisemitic” for them to remain here, and so were, in effect, getting out while they could.
A pack of lies. They spend quite a bit of time here, and do not seem to feel any obligation to stay and help Israel in its hour of need.
If those tweets by Reginald D. Hunter are true (accurate), that puts another complexion on the “victimized Jewish couple” story as first published and broadcast recently.
First of all, one has to ask why Lewis and his companion went to such a show in the first place, if the comedian, one Reginald D. Hunter, is known for being “antisemitic” (I have to admit that I had never heard of him at all).
What was their motive even for going there if they were aware of the comedian’s expressed views?
It will be remembered by some that Mandy Blumenthal deliberately tried to book passage, quite many years ago, on a Middle Eastern airline operating out of Heathrow, and made it known that she was Jewish (perhaps using her Israeli passport rather than her UK one). Once refused by the airline, a “typical” fuss was made, both at the airport and in the (((Press))), and the airline quickly stumped up, apparently, quite a few thousand pounds by way of “compensation” (to shut her up).
Is this yet another cynical way to get money, this time out of the comedian, the promoter or the theatre? Was the whole thing contrived in advance, like that airline scam, or not? We do not know, and can only try to draw logical conclusions from what we know.
Reading about what the comedian said on stage, it seems that he recognized the “anonymous” Jewish couple of the Press stories, and that that is why he said that he had been “waiting” for Lewis, assuming that it was Lewis, to turn up:
That’s even before one considers the way in which he treated his ex-wife, one-time low-level TV face, and radio voice (now washed-up and over the hill), Caroline Feraday. I have little time for her anyway, so let’s leave that aside for now (she joined with Lewis in abusing me very unpleasantly on Twitter, about 12 years ago, so she deserved to suffer once she married him, in my view).
Sabrina Miller, when a vociferous Jewish girl student at Bristol, found time to defend Jewish-lobby-puppet and then-MP, Ian Austin, who had tweeted that bestiality pornography and other similar material should be decriminalized. Now she is a “journalist” with the Daily Mail.
The Mail might not have the best reputation, but it really should draw the line at contrived “stories” such as this Edinburgh Fringe scam.
Looks to me as though the audience recognized Lewis specifically, and were loudly disapproving for that reason.
As for the comedian, the promoter (if any), and the theatre, they should resist any contrived legal claim that “any” ambulance-chaser might make…
This all makes me feel that “a certain person” was right (about “them”)…
And as you probably know, Sabrina Miller has form: see her role in trying to smear @Tracking_Power (David Miller – no relation) as an antisemite when he was working at Bristol University (claims which were destroyed in court).
There’s an air of unreality to prosecutions designed to nip unrest in the bud by handing down disproportionate sentences. English law, honed over centuries to match punishment to evidence, is misfiring. Many defendants have pled guilty without trial. Cases need testing by juries. https://t.co/ykuP6ExHuX
What does Starmer think those imprisoned protesters, tweeters, Facebook posters feel about the UK government of traitors now? Happy? Angry? Determined?
"More than 1,000 people have been arrested, with almost 600 charged so far. Some of those charged have been children, including two 12-year-old boys, a 13-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy."
God help John Betjeman, were he still alive. “Come, friendly German bombers, and drop your bombs on Slough“… he would probably be arrested by the “Anti-Terror Command” or other poundshop UK Stasi police, and/or imprisoned for years.
Misleading headline. She’s talking about the dangers of deifying the NHS.
Also look at this nuts analysis from Sky’s Health correspondent. “The health service is our most cherished institution. Very few people would dare to attack it.”
Almost anything now published or spoken by msm scribblers and talking heads can be discounted. If they ever cross the line into uncomfortable and “unapproved” reality, they soon lose those lucrative jobs— and they know it.

I repeat: words (even my words) are cheap and do not punish the bastard.

The bond between human and cat passeth all understanding.

It's impossible to believe, in 2022, that people would have been so terririfed of a cold virus that they stopped normal life & gave up their liberties.
Lockdowns, masks, social distancing, hand sanitizer: these were all part of the monolithic propaganda.
'The USSR was composed of nothing but rust, corruption and weapons, bound together by barbed wire and residual fear, and kept more-or-less happy with regular issues of vodka, medals and Kolbasa sausage.' https://t.co/04tOm8s1iH via @mailplus
A very considerable simplification, of course, but largely true.
Socialism, in the old sense, had had its day by the 1980s. The Western conspirators largely responsible for foisting Jewish Marxism-Leninism on the carcass of Imperial Russia were ready to keep Russia (and its former empire) down another way, by holding out the promise of Western material goods, basically; that, and the right to speak more freely than in the ~70 years that had passed.
Now, in 2022-2055, new illusions are put forward, both to Russia and the West.
