Today is the 5th of November, the anniversary of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunpowder_Plot.

If the NWO/ZOG elements ruling parts of Western and Central Europe foment a war with Russia, and if that then turns nuclear, do not expect the USA to “have your back”, as people now say.

Of course, the number of Islamist fanatics willing to take direct action, or act as support squad for terrorists, is small, perhaps as small as 1% of the whole Muslim population, and perhaps only 0.1%. There are, in the UK, something like 4M-5M Muslims in the UK, so that would mean that between 4,000-50,000 are a serious danger. It also means that the others are not, but is it acceptable to us to harbour even 4,000 dangerous individuals, let alone 50,000? Those numbers, of course, will increase, along with the expansion of the Muslim population via both births and immigration (whether “legal” or not).

As regular readers will know, I have always been opposed to extreme Jew-Zionist elements, but the UK and Europe harbour several different enemy elements, not just one, nor even two.

“Terrorism” can take many forms. It can be, for example, just blacks attacking English/British people for reasons not purely political or religious, and the perpetrators may be crazed or semi-crazed.

See also my assessment of the pathetic “Prevent” programme, penned as long ago as 2018:

…(and LibDems 13%; Greens 12%).

That translates to a Commons with about 401 Reform MPs (fairly massive majority), 71 Labour, 56 LibDems, 45 SNP, 27 Cons, 14 Greens (etc).

Does anyone really imagine that the domestic political situation will suddenly change, and that Lab or Con will suddenly rise up again? I doubt it, and I doubt that that will happen. Indeed, after the Budget of “Rachel from Accounts and Customer Relations” Reeves, there is every chance that Labour will sink lower in the opinion polls. The once-great Conservative Party, meanwhile, is a not very interesting irrelevance. Its one strong card is the pensioner vote, but many of “a certain age” (not only 66+ but —I should say— 55+) look upon this country and despair…and blame both of the main “old parties” for what has happened and for what is continuing to happen.

There is also the point that, by 2029, many of the 2024 Con voters will have reached the end of their lives. They will not be voting.

Reform is underwhelming, but is the only game in town (in England) that is not Lib, Lab, or Con, that has a chance at all, and that is not basically a more-or-less pro-Muslim offshoot of Labour (Corbyn’s “Your Party”, and Galloway’s “Workers’ Party”).

It is an open question how many MPs might be gained by the two small offshoots of Labour, and by the Greens. Perhaps a total of, in the region of, 20 or 30. Not more, as far as I can see.

So far, Corbyn’s “Your Party” has not appeared in opinion polling. It may eventually get 2 or 3 MPs, it may get 10 or more. Hard to say. Of course, anyone voting “Your Party” would otherwise vote Labour or Green; the Reform ascendancy will not be affected.

However, Reform’s time in the sun may be very limited, should it reach government. Tice and Farage (and Matt Goodwin) are almost ludicrously pro-Jewish lobby and pro-Israel, and that may help them into government by limiting the msm opposition to them. However, in government it would be a very limiting factor, in my view.

Likewise, Tice, the likely Chancellor, has refused to rule out dumping the Triple Lock on State pensions. If the Triple Lock goes, so does about 3/4 of the Reform vote. A Reform government might well be a one-term government.

Then there is migration invasion. Reform has pledged to remove some “illegal” immigrants, “small boat” invaders (or some of them) etc, but that will not touch most non-Europeans in the UK; certainly not those born here, and not those here “legally”. That makes Reform almost a waste of space even if they could remove the hundreds of thousands of “illegals”.

Out of a Reform government, though, as an offshoot, might grow something better.

Incidentally, I see quite a few tweets from anti-Reform tweeters all saying about how tactical voting can prevent Reform getting seats, as at Caerphilly. Not very convincing.

Caerphilly was a long-time Labour stronghold, but Plaid was usually/always in second place, and not only in the Senedd constituency; also in the Westminster one: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caerphilly_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

The Plaid candidate was also a strong one, with roots in the area going back half a century.

In most English constituencies, there is no one obvious alternative to Reform or the main System parties. In 50-100, the LibDems would be the beneficiaries of tactical voting and, to some extent, already are. That is unlikely to be the case in most.

If Reform can get even 250 seats, far less than a Commons majority, it will still cripple the main parties. Give the LibDems 100, and all the other parties will have to split the 300 remaining. Lab and Con might split between them about 200 or so.

[“IS THERE REALLY RACISM IN THE NHS?… Let me tell you a story, my partner works in a dementia care home, to circumvent paying decent wages they import Africans en mass via an agency , they subsidise their accommodation and some meals too, (my partner gets no help with her accommodation or meals and is on minimum wage) none of the 5 that were brought in can speak English clearly which causes frustration for sometimes hard of hearing dementia residents desperate to talk to someone. There is no time spent with the residents , they sit for hours on end with zero stimulation or interaction from staff who just congregate in a staff room for a chat, my partner (not a carer) sometimes hears heartbreaking stories from the residents and nearly all of them relating to not being able to understand what the carers are asking them to do. This overuse of agency staff from other countries is common in the NHS too where similar complaints have been reported, so instead of labelling us all as “racists” why not consider employing people WE CAN FUCKING UNDERSTAND! and pay them correctly.”]

I happened to be in a large NHS hospital recently a couple of times (not as patient). Dystopian. Car parking near-impossible to navigate and also very expensive.

The hospital itself was a giant rabbit warren, expanded several times over the decades, and with yet more building going on, but without even a basic reception or information desk (despite the huge size of the complex), and no-one working there had much idea even where any particular unit was, or how to get there. Signage terrible.

Endless corridors filled with mostly non-European staff (in uniform) and masses of very poor-looking, drably-dressed English people, presumably mostly visitors. A vision of a kind of hell, in short.

I hope that that dystopian vision is not the future for all or much of our country, but I rather feel that it is, unless something truly truly radical happens fairly soon.

[“Yesterday in Westminster, I asked the Chancellor if she would publish a tax contribution breakdown by nationality. We know the data exists, as Restore Britain has obtained the same unpublished information for ethnicity through FOI requests (see below). The gasps in Parliament were telling. How could someone even dare to ask the question? What a monster Lowe is… I’ve previously asked the minister about the analysis, and I was told… “HMRC do not publish individual level analysis of Income Tax brackets by (a) ethnicity or (b) nationality.” They may not publish it, but they certainly have it – as we’ve proven. So why the deception? Why won’t the Government release nationality stats on tax? Are Somalians paying the same amount of tax on average as Australians or Americans? I doubt it, to be honest. It’s a scandal. We’ve got some of the data. Now we must demand the nationality figures.“]

“Mark Lewis Lawyer”— latest

Long-term readers of the blog will remember the quite many posts centring on the egregious UK/Israel-based solicitor, Mark Lewis. Anyone not au fait can use the search box on the blog. The same goes for successful libel claimant, James Wilson, whose matter Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased) and Cantor not only ended well for him, but badly for the Jewish defendants, one of whom killed himself (he had deceived his wife about the case and stood to lose his home after having been misadvised), and another of which now stands to lose his home, he having been misled as well as misadvised by negligent, incompetent, and thoroughly dishonest Jewish lawyer and Israel fanatic Lewis (probably with others).

Wilson won his case after he was conspired against by a whole pack of Jews, several of which are prolific (and, of course, pro-Israel etc) on Twitter/X. Details about them can be found, as noted, via the blog search box.

Latest tweets:

Believe one Jew and not another (closely connected with the first one)? Nein danke!

At one time, long ago, there were effectively no Muslims in New York City (or State) and, while there were many Jews, they were largely kept in their box, unable to take over politics, the legal system etc. That was, as I said, long long ago…

Look now. As a matter of fact, look at the way London has gone and is going.

All races that presently exist must eventually be subordinated to the rule of a super-race that does not, at present, exist.

The task of present-day European humanity is to create the conditions, not for that super-race, but for a racial grouping that will be the ur-foundation for the coming super-race.

We have plenty of walls and, when the right time comes, people will know what to do at the direction of a social-national government.

Were he not a sinister little power-crazed bureaucrat, Starmer-stein would be a joke.

I was once a great supporter of the NHS (and the BBC, for that matter). I have not changed, they have, and indeed have become utterly useless much of the time. Said more in sorrow than in anger; both, really.

Ha. Not sure I agree with point 3. Polls show young people are generally more tolerant of mass immigration than those of my age (69). I attribute that (if so) mainly to the brainwashing they all get in the otherwise ineffective UK school system, especially the State-run schools.

Pretty silly of those “tolerant” young people, though. I wonder when it will dawn on them that mass immigration is a major reason why their work is badly paid (huge low-grade labour pool), why working-age State benefits are worth less now than they were in 1985, why rents are sky-high and council housing all but unobtainable (massive demand from millions of immigrants and their offspring added to existing English/British demand).

[“This is the Government’s formal position: “The Government has carefully considered the risk of genocide, including when permitting exports to the F-35 global programme. The high civilian casualties, including women and children, and the extensive destruction in Gaza, are utterly appalling. Israel must do much more to prevent and alleviate the suffering that this conflict is causing. As per the Genocide Convention, the crime of genocide occurs only where there is specific “intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group.” The Government has not concluded that Israel is acting with that intent”.

Why has Keir Starmer never publicly acknowledged this. Why has no Minister publicly acknowledged this. Why will no Minister simply say “Israel is not committing genocide.”]

Because Israel, in reality, is committing genocide. The Israeli Jew leadership have declared their genocidal intentions time and again, without using the actual word.

Then look at what they have actually done— killing and badly wounding over 200,000 Gazans, mostly civilians, mostly women and children, the vast majority of whom have had no means of self-defence at all, and were not even trying to defend themselves, let alone take the fight to the Jew invaders and/or occupiers.

All because Hamas killed or captured, on one day, or two days, about 1,500 Jews, many, perhaps most of whom were in fact killed via the free-fire/scorched earth protocols of the trigger-happy Israeli forces, and not by Hamas operatives.

The disproportion is ludicrous.

Starmer-stein’s Labour Friends of Israel government of clowns wants to support the Jewish state, but even Starmer’s cabal has been appalled at the behaviour of the Israeli Jews. Hence the weaselling. They, this government, stand upon a determination based on the single word “intent“…

As for Dan Hodges, he is somewhere between pathetic and disgusting. As far as I know, he is not Jewish (his mother, the famous actress and Labour politician, Glenda Jackson, was certainly not); I suppose he may be “part-“.

At any rate, Hodges seems to be, to put it over-politely, “less critical” of the Netanyahu regime than many a real Jew; many Jews even in Israel recognize the madness, evil, and extreme disproportion of what Israel’s armed forces have done over the past 2 years in Gaza.

Dan Hodges is on surer ground here.

50 people? 60? That audience, even including the deliberate bunching at the front (for the benefit of TV cameras etc), is sparse, to say the least. It includes quite a few journalists in its ranks, so the real audience there is numbered in the few dozens.

As I remarked yesterday, seeing Kemi Badenoch’s speech, fewer people by far than the audience at the London Forum, where I gave a politico-legal talk in 2017.

That photo is not showing a fringe meeting, but the speech of the Shadow Chancellor in the main hall.

On present polling, Mel Stride will probably lose his own seat at the 2029 (?) General Election.

The only factor that really matters is the nuclear weapons situation.

Translates to a Commons with about 383 Reform MPs, about 106 Lab, 56 LibDem, 40 Con, and 33 SNP (Greens 6, Plaid 5 etc). What matters in that, and in the 120+ previous opinion polls, is not the exact detail but the overall picture. Reform either —as in this poll— carrying a solid majority, or very close to an overall majority, Labour cut back, and with the loss —in most polling— of two-thirds, or even three-quarters, of its MPs.

As to the Conservative Party, few if any polls now think it can get more than 50 MPs; many put the figure as low as 30, 20 or, in a few polls, below 10.

I do not think that removing Kemi Badenoch will make a huge difference, but if Jenrick takes up the reins, it might save 10 or 20 seats.

I have blogged before to the effect that British (real British) voters, will not vote for a non-white person as Prime Minister, which —in effect— is what they would be doing if voting Conservative at present.

Yes, there are, and have been for a number of years, non-white MPs. Few have impressed, to put it mildly. A Prime Minister, though, is another level entirely.

Sunak’s electoral failure was not entirely by reason of his Indian heritage and ethnicity, but it was a significant factor for sure. Not just that he looked “foreign”, but the fact that, despite having been born here, and educated at Winchester and then Oxford, he seemed not to “get” Britishness, as when he scurried back to London from the D-Day commemorations to attend a business meeting.

Kemi Badenoch has even fewer ties and bindings here. Born in London so that she could later get a British passport (the law was changed the following year; born a year later, she would have been barred from ever getting British nationality), she was taken to Nigeria by her parents, brought up there and then in the USA, and only “returned” to this country aged 16-17. Her roots are in every sense either in Africa or America, not in Britain.

No doubt the unthinking will call me “prejudiced”, but keep her as Conservative Party leader and you will see how she does at the (?) 2029 General Election. A near-wipeout is my prediction, if she stays in her present office.

The newspapers say that Jenrick and/or others are already gathering support for a leadership bid in November or December this year. I doubt that that can revive the Conservative Party, but it might make the difference between 10 Commons seats and 30.

[“My monologue on ‘Tories in the land of the living dead’ on The Times at One with Andrew Neil on @TimesRadio

As the Tories gather in Manchester for a conference they hope will rescue them from the land of the living dead one fact is salient above all others.  In the general election of July 2024 they scored their lowest share of the vote ever, at 24%. Just when they thought it couldn’t get worse than that — it did.

The Tories are now around 16% in the polls. Far from challenging a deeply unpopular Labour government for first place they’re struggling to avoid fourth place, behind the Liberal Democrats.

At Manchester Kemi Badenoch is abandoning her ‘slow burn’ approach to policies with a raft of new initiatives, many of them with more than a hint of the Reform song sheet.  But the Tories face a systemic problem which is not easily resolved.

Nearly everything voters dislike about the current government — high taxes, slow to no growth, mass legal immigration, uncontrolled illegal immigration, net zero, wokery — started under the last Tory government.  The Tories are now in full retreat from nearly all of that. But, to use a good Scottish word, if you’re really scunnered with Starmer, why would you seek salvation in the Tories, the original source of your misery? If you think net zero was a mistake — which the Tories are now saying — are you not more likely to look to Nigel Farage, who always opposed it, than the Tories, who enthusiastically implemented it for over 14 years?

Ditto large-scale immigration or high taxes or identity politics. All matters the Tories rail about now, all prospered under a Tory government. All opposed by Reform.  At least the Tories can claim to be the only party serious about cutting public spending, as shadow chancellor Mel Stride illustrated in Manchester today. Labour has given up the ghost and Reform’s fiscal plans verge on fantasy.  But not that long ago the Tories were the high spenders. So is anybody inclined to listen to them now? And there’s the rub. 

It’s not that voters don’t necessarily like what the Tories are now saying. It’s just that they’re not interested, not listening, don’t regard them as relevant to the current political discourse.  And when that happens to a political party, there’s the real risk that oblivion awaits just round the corner.“]

[Andrew Neil]

Exactly. Also, the fact is that the “Conservatives” are really, in power, little different from “Labour”. Same or similar core beliefs, similar methods, fairly similar personnel; both parties in favour of multikulti society and globalism, and both (of course) ruled, from behind the scenes, by the Jewish/Israeli lobby cabals.

[Kemi Badenoch after her speech today. About 80-100 people in shot. If that is about half the audience, then the whole crowd must have been, at most generous, maybe 250. Compare that to the years of Heath, Thatcher, even Major]

“Boris”-idiot and Starmer-stein are numbered among the enemies of Britain’s future.

As said earlier, there was a bigger audience at the 2017 London Forum; I think I spoke to between 120-150 people.

As I have said on the blog many times, I respect the independence or autonomy of both Poland and the pribaltika (Baltic states), and their right to run their own affairs, cultivate their own cultures etc, but they must not interfere with the destiny of Russia, or its own territorial, cultural, or political integrity.

If the System in Germany attempts to cheat the AfD by banning it or restricting it, the German people will have every right to take up arms.

Diary Blog, 24 September 2025, including thoughts about Trump, Russia and Ukraine, and an important tweet-thread about the secretive Jewish and Israeli cabals inside the Labour Party and UK Government

Morning music

[T-34 in action, Eastern Front, 1943]

First thoughts: Trump, Russia, Ukraine

Trump seems to have finally gone off his head. I always favoured his election (on both occasions), and for one reason only— to avoid a Russia-USA or Russia-NATO conflict which would probably degenerate into a nuclear exchange, devastating Europe as well as Russia and North America.

I was never under any illusion about Trump, and, during his first term, called him “a squawking parrot in a gilded cage, guarded by a phalanx of Jews“. That has not changed.

Now Trump has (apparently) totally changed his stance on the conflict between Russia and the Kiev regime in Ukraine. He is sanguine about Russian planes being shot down if they overfly even the borders of Polish airspace, and has made the extraordinary statement that “Ukraine” (the Zelensky regime in Kiev) can “win” (defined as seizing back all territory occupied by Russian since 2014: Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk etc).

The fact is that, even if supplied with new weapons (and Trump has not offered any directly), the Kiev regime would not be able to re-occupy those regions, because, first of all, the Kiev-regime armies are crumbling away. They lose 1,000-2,000 men per day, and try to plug the gaps by abducting men aged 25-65 from the streets of Ukrainian cities, pressing them into service by brutal compulsion.

Then there is the fact that most of the populations of Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk are actually Russian and/or Russian-language speakers. They do not want to be part of the Jew Zelensky’s shambolic, corrupt, and brutal fake state.

If Trump orders huge new weapons transfers to Kiev, or that is done via NATO, and if it looks as if Russian advances are being pushed back, it may trigger a reaction in Moscow that few if any want— the use against the Kiev regime armed forces, or against Kiev itself, of tactical or even strategic nuclear weapons by the Russian side.

Trump says one thing one day, another thing another day. His brain, in strictly medical terms, may not be working normally now. That should worry even those of us who were (relatively) in favour of him in the past (though, personally, I myself never favoured most of his policies anyway, only some and somewhat).

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

If that is right, then all well and good (though if the analysis is correct, Trump should lay out his strategy more honestly or at least more clearly).

Put them up against a wall.

Incidentally, those deportation flights to Romania carry almost (?) entirely not real Romanians but Roma gypsies (with Romanian passports), a fact ITV News glosses over. Don’t insult real Romanians by conflating them with the Roma predators and scavengers.

Is this true? Can people be that stupid (even bearing in mind the disappointingly poor quality of Reform’s policies and people)?

If accurate, that would result in a Commons with Reform having about 287 MPs, Lab 192, LibDems 63, Cons 56, SNP 22 (etc). A minority Reform government, or one requiring Con MPs’ votes to keep it afloat.

Well, for once I agree with radio loudmouth James O’Brien, as well as Dan Hodges.

Farage should have added the unsaid, i.e. that those taxi drivers were (obviously) Muslims. Not that that necessarily makes their words an accurate prophecy, but it would have given needed context to what Farage was saying there.

[“This decision sends a green light to any Muslim who wants to enforce an Islamic blasphemy by taking the law into their own hands. The court is effectively saying that if you attack a blasphemer with a knife, he will be convicted of causing you harassment, alarm or distress and you won’t have to spend a day behind bars. Moussa Kadri has been let off with a suspended sentence after repeatedly slashing Hamit Coskun with a knife while shouting that he was going to kill him. Kadri had been enraged that Coskun was protesting against Islam. Hamit is still living in hiding having been convicted of a “hate crime” for burning his own copy of the Quran.”]

A completely wrong decision.

As the famous Dickensian character said, “the law is a ass, a idiot“…

Hard to believe that a violent foreign crazie like that has been effectively let off, even in today’s Britain.

Mass deportations now!

The Czechs…always a subject people…

Get rid of them all.

As for the BBC, it puts the old Soviet propaganda to shame, so blatant is its lying, tendentious, and unwatchable garbage.

As previously noted on the blog, neither side should be directly targeting civilians.

[“The Spanish Prime Minister announced that he will send a warship to accompany the Sumud global fleet in Gaza to “ensure respect for international law”. Turkish MP Ozgur Ozel appealed to Erdogan to send Turkish ships to protect activists traveling by boats to Gaza: ‘We appeal to those who govern the country: the Sumud fleet is the conscience of humanity! Support this fleet. Whatever happens, protect this fleet!

It would be a great thing if the Spanish, Italian, or Turkish naval ships in question ended up sinking the Israeli ones. It might lead who knows where…

Let us hope that that report is accurate.

Thoughts

The Second World War broke out on this day 86 years ago, when Britain and France declared war on National Socialist Germany.

The Second World War was disastrous in so many ways. The devastation of much of Europe and Russia (the latter taken as sui generis), the death and overall misery inflicted on millions of people, the advance of Stalinism into Central Europe, the destruction of the German Reich (the only European power almost free of Jewish influence and control). Then there was the economic damage across Europe. Six years of a war economy.

Beyond the above, the Second World War had consequences arguably even more disastrous. The fall of European rule, or slow abandonment of European imperial and quasi-imperial power over most of Africa, much of Asia, parts of Latin America etc. That led in turn to large-scale civil conflicts, regional wars by the newly-independent states (as with India-Pakistan), a huge increase in urbanization, enormous environmental damage, deforestation, extinction of wildlife etc.

Latterly, also the flooding of Europe with “refugees” and economic migrants from across the more backward parts of the world.

It just goes on.

Now, in 2025, 80 years after the end of that disastrous conflict, we see the possibility of a new “world war”. Siren voices in the UK, USA, France etc call for war with Russia, even with China, as well as against smaller states.

There are few “statesmen” around, certainly not in the West, but all political leaders and commentators should think twice and thrice before placing their weight on the scales in favour of war, particularly when the ostensible casus belli is the fake “state” of Kiev-regime Ukraine, a country under the control of a Jew-Zionist cabal which has banned elections indefinitely, banned opposition parties, banned trade unions, arrested or killed dissidents; the army of which is manned by ill-trained troops often abducted on the streets and forced to serve. A brutal, corrupt, and shambolic regime, ruling a “state” which did not even exist 35 years ago.

Of course, “world wars” are a misnomer. Large parts of the world were not directly affected by the Second World War while it was ongoing; the actual destruction was largely confined to parts of Europe, parts of Russia, parts of North Africa, parts of Asia. Vast areas of the world technically “at war” never saw a battle. Even in Europe, there were neutral countries which saw no actual fighting or bombing: Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Sweden.

Today, though, we are in a world overshadowed by nuclear weapons. Still, it may be that, should the worst happen, life will eventually resume. Let us hope so.

In the meantime, let us also hope that the voices calling for war are silenced.

That buffoon, Clarke, thinks that “Boris”-idiot is a “leader“. Well, no, he is not. He is just an over-entitled silver-(plated)-spoon psychopath who should have been locked in a box decades ago and kept there.

“Boris” Johnson was puffed to absurdity by a supine Press and TV over two decades and more, largely because he has always been connected to the Jewish lobby and Israel (and is himself part-Jew). The public were told what a great brain he was or is, how educated and informed he is or was, what a “leader” he was or is etc. All lies. Stupid schoolboy ideas at best (bridges over the Irish Sea, an island airport between Kent and Essex etc etc), no ideals at all, no ability to inspire or even administer, no honour, no honesty…just a big nothing. A kind of public entertainer.

“Boris”-idiot never had either the ability or the character to be a prime minister; he also lacked (and lacks) any useful or realistic ideas.

I shall add one thing, that I noticed, and noted on the blog, years ago: “Boris” Johnson is no strong-willed leader; in fact he is no kind of leader at all and, far from imposing his will on people, organizations, countries, events, is and was pushed around by all of those.

As for Clarke, he is a know-nothing who, until selected and elected as an MP in 2017, at age 32, had never really had a job. He lost his seat in 2024 and is now director of one of those Jewish-lobby-connected fake think-tanks, in this case called “Onward”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Clarke_(politician).

I suppose that Clarke thinks that he can regain his seat at Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland, lost to Labour in 2024 by only 214 votes. That seems unlikely to me, looking at the collapse of support for a —daily less credible— Conservative Party; also, the seemingly irresistible rise of Reform UK (which did not contest that seat in 2024).

One Zack Polanski, apparently. Are you surprised? I have little doubt that (((Polanski))) also supports the idea of the UK having “holocaust” “denial” heresy laws too, repressive laws similar to those in France, Germany, and elsewhere. So far we have managed to avoid such police-state nonsense, at least as far as examination of history is concerned.

At least Polanski has recognized the Gaza genocide for what it is: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zack_Polanski.

Of course, the Greens in the UK are a joke party, supposedly environmentally-conscious yet supportive of the mass immigration which is trashing the environment.

The Greens are only about 10% in the polls; were Labour under Starmer-stein not such a shambles, the 10% would be about 5%, if that.

The moneygrubbing, and petty corruption, of this Labour Friends of Israel government were both evident from the start, of course.

Farage is, of course, a bit “Marmite”; people mostly either love or hate him. I should say that my own feeling is closer to dislike than like, Farage being pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby etc, and a finance-capitalist to boot. Also, as many say, a “snake-oil salesman”. No argument. However, to destroy the main System parties, there must be a destroying force. Reform is that force.

If Reform makes it into government in 2028/2029, it will be blocked at every turn. It will fail to accomplish most of what it wants to achieve. That situation, in turn, will lead on to real social nationalism. Raise the banners!

I rarely repost anything from George Galloway, who is himself rather a “grifter”, and one who tweeted some silly and negative things about me some years ago but, in the Australian phrase, “fair do’s“. Angela Rayner deserves to be binned. I always hold the moral high ground…

As Galloway implies and indeed expresses, Angela Rayner’s political career, which has done nothing for the British people, has enriched the woman herself. In fact, she personifies the change in the demographic, as part of the working class or proletariat became, after the 1970s, the contemporary “chavscum” element (or latter-day British lumpenproletariat), with its grabbing of whatever is going free, its tattoos (even for women), its “vaping”, the underage pregnancies, and so on.

Galloway got his point across clearly without having to resort to the obvious (though true) comment that Angela Rayner and her colleagues are “filling their boots” while they can.

Next stop— the postponed local elections.

Wall. Squad. End.

Eventually, there will be only one way forward in this country, but we are “not allowed” to say it.

Hey, Matt Goodwin! Don’t forget to mention that, in the UK (as in many other countries), it is the Jewish lobby, aka Israel lobby, that is behind almost all of the repression of free speech.

Sadly, Goodwin is very much in the pocket of the Jewish/Israel lobby, just like Farage, Tice, Toby Young, the Free Speech Union etc.

The UK msm news outlets present a completely one-sided story about the Ukraine situation. Effectively, pro-Kiev regime propaganda.

Including Israeli orgs in the UK…

Another Israeli war crime, tacitly supported by Jew-Zionist orgs, and (or so say those orgs) most individual Jews in the UK and elsewhere.

The so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] claims that c.95% of Jews in the UK support Israel generally. It can be inferred, therefore, that, at minimum, a majority of them support also what Israel is doing in Gaza and the West Bank.

I have yet to meet a Ukrainian I found to be honest or decent (or particularly intelligent).

Without constant foreign subsidy, the Kiev regime would collapse within weeks.

My country has largely gone, and has been, mainly, stolen or trashed by enemy elements, aided and abetted by traitors.

Very good, of course, but the genie is out of the bottle now. Israel, Pakistan, India already have nuclear weapons, Iran, North Korea and maybe others seem close to getting some, and other states yet, such as Turkey and Japan, have the scientific and industrial capability to put a nuclear weapons programme in place even if that has not yet happened.

For decades, Israel had advanced weapons, while most of the surrounding or engaged states did not. That has changed in recent years. Israel is doomed.

And there are still four more years ahead with the current government. “If taxes are raised to direct more money to an increasingly inefficient public sector, welfare will decline.

Starmer, Macron, Merz, other puppets and political frauds “leading” nations of, mostly, so far, sheep.

I begin to think that the hidden hand guiding Europe to a massive and unwinnable war with Russia will not be thwarted, that Europe will (as Rudolf Steiner seems to have predicted) be devastated, and that all we, as social nationalists, can do is to form post-Aryan communities and withdraw from the main society; build for the future.

That may seem like defeatism, but we must be realistic. The “democratic” (Parliamentary road) way forward is under (((control))) in several ways (look at Reform UK).

Don’t forget that Gideon Falter has not only lied many times in public, but also has committed perjury more than once (though, admittedly, he has never been charged with the latter). The Rowan Laxton appeal case, 15 years ago, was one matter in which Falter’s sworn testimony was “not accepted”. The judge, in allowing Laxton’s appeal from earlier conviction in the magistrates’ court, gave little or no weight to Falter’s sworn testimony. Laxton, a member of the Foreign Office, later became an ambassador.

https://www.thejc.com/news/foreign-office-man-wins-appeal-against-race-abuse-claim-gyp2ql35

Falter and “Slitherman” (the two main public faces of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) are both hardened and prolific Jew-Zionist liars. They seem to have forgotten the Mosaic injunction “Thou shalt not bear false witness“…

This whole “proscription” thing is a mess. People should be punished for what they do (in concrete terms) not for saying things “in support” of this or that organization, or for belonging to something.

There you see, in Israel-puppet scribbler Dan Hodges, the sheer unreality of much of the UK milieu(x) of scribblers, talking heads, dim MPs etc. Especially in relation to the Ukraine conflict.

Hodges wants, or thinks he wants, to confront Russia, a state which possesses as many as 7,000 nuclear weapons. He seems to think it the acme of Realpolitik to pretend that the UK is “up for” war with Russia. “Bring it on“, say Hodges and dim politicos such as Ben Wallace, the ex-MP and (ludicrously) one-time Secretary of State for Defence.

Wallace, whose highest military rank was captain (in the Guards), was heard drunkenly proclaiming that the Scots Guards had beaten the Russians in some skirmish about two centuries ago, and could do so again. He was Secretary of State at the time…

I think that British people should require a far higher standard of both education and intelligence from those who aspire to political leadership.

As for Hodges, his view appears to be that not only should the UK and EU states stuff even more taxpayer money into “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime), and ever-more arms and ammunition, but even have British troops stationed there; maybe even actually fighting.

Needless to say (?), that would spark, if not WW3, then Russian attacks on both the British troops Hodges wants stationed in Ukraine, and possibly on the UK itself, depending on what those British troops were to do.

Incidentally, Ukrainian losses on the front-lines are between 1,000-3,000 per day. How long do you imagine British troops (the contingent of which would probably only be a few thousand, because most of the British Army is far from battle-ready) could last, if exposed to actual fighting?

Do scribblers such as Hodges have any conception of what might happen in a NATO war with Russia? To mention only one factor that might interest Hodges (who lives at Blackheath, S.E. London), the almost immediate annihilation of everything in the London area.

I might add that, looking at Trump’s smoke signals, there is every possibility that, in a war with Russia, NATO itself would be conspicuous by its absence. It might well be “the Coalition of the Willing” (coalition of clowns such as Starmer and Macron) against Russia, with the USA itself standing back (along with China etc).

“Coalition of the Willing” v. Russia. Which one would you bet on, in a major war? We are talking about a coalition of the degraded nations of the UK, France, Germany, a few others. The idea is pathetic, and also rather dangerous if the politicians involved really believe in it.

Hodges thinks that a war with Russia is a risk worth taking, to protect the Kiev regime in Ukraine. There is a kind of mad delusion in this. Hodges is not the only victim. It is rife among Brit MPs and msm scribblers.

Ukraine has only existed as a state for 34 years, during which years its ordinary population has been consistently among the poorest in Europe (while a tiny percentage, often Jews like Zelensky, have amassed billions), and while it has been, consistently, the most corrupt “state” of Europe.

Kiev-regime Ukraine has abandoned elections (effectively forever), banned trade unions and all real opposition parties and voices, and kidnaps men off the street to serve on open-ended forced “commitment” on the crumbling front lines. In fact, few serve for long before being killed, badly wounded, or captured.

Is “Ukraine” worth supporting as it now is? I say no.

[“Can anyone help explain what was going on here. Today I was driving near High Wycombe. A Thames Valley police car was behind me for a minute or so. As I came to a complicated set of mini-roundabouts, it turned on its blue lights and set off its siren, forcing me to pull over in a dangerous section of road between the roundabouts. A policeman came over, bent down by the window and asked in the chummiest of tones: “Are you having a good day?” I said I was until he showed up. He asked if my name was Jonathan Cook. He then asked what I was doing here. I responded that I was visiting family. Was that a problem? He answered that it was routine to make checks on what he called “cross-border activity”. When I asked him what he meant by “cross-border activity”, he said the car was registered to an address in Bristol, and that was a two and a half hour drive away – it’s not, it’s 1 hour 45 minutes away. He added that it was a long way to come. I must have looked slightly stunned. He told me not to worry, wished me well and – with a smile – said I could continue on my way. Have others had a similar experience? Is it now normal to be stopped in the UK simply because you’re driving more than 90 minutes from home?“]

Low-level (political?) intimidation. I have no idea who is the tweeter, but his Twitter/X bio-details say “Writer, journalist, self-appointed media critic. Winner of the Martha Gellhorn Special Prize for Journalism. Bristol / Nazareth“.

The poundland police state in the UK, which has mainly emerged since Blair took power in 1997, and which became both overbearing and totally stupid during the 2020-2022 years of the “Covid” “panicdemic”/”scamdemic”, is still rather velvet glove and not (yet?) iron fist, but the essence is still police-state-ism. That police car stop was really saying “We know who you are, we know where you live and [unspoken] we know you take an interest in Israeli/Palestinian matters”…

A shot across the bows, in short.

I now see that the original tweeter is indeed interested in Palestinian matters:

Anyone, from central government, local government, the Press, the TV or radio, or wherever, encouraging or facilitating the migration invasion of this country, is a traitor to the future, and must be designated as such.

Maybe twits such as Ben Wallace and Johnny Mercer might like to re-read that at their leisure.

The lady has still not cottoned-on. No-one, or almost no-one, is intending to vote for Reform UK, as such. The voters are intending to vote against both Lab and Con, and the method for doing that effectively is via voting Reform UK. Das ist’s

Witless” better describes both Ben Wallace and pro-Israel scribbler Camilla Tominey.

The System TV shows are full of “experts” saying how many troops it might take to “contain” Russian advance forces. 100,000-300,000, apparently. If push comes to shove, Putin could just drop nuclear bombs on those forces and then…no EU/UK army left. All gone.

There is no need for “the West” to “protect” Ukraine. We have nothing at all in common with either Ukraine or the Zelensky regime. Nothing. As for “Putin” (Russia) invading Central and Western Europe, the very idea is nonsensical.

Quite. Largely (though not entirely) because of “them” (((the usual suspects))).

I notice that the lady is wearing the insignia of a full general. This is her: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharon_Nesmith.

Realistically, one can see what is going on here. The Army wants to tick the “we’re rough and ready, if need be” box for benefit of those MPs (and the general public) rather than say the truth, i.e. “we have only a few tens of thousands of soldiers, maybe 70,000 at most, and only a few thousand of those are really battle-ready in any sense“…

Another truthful response might be “in any real war between Russia and NATO forces, much of Europe will become a devastated and irradiated wasteland, and the UK would probably be the worst-hit of all, with its US air bases and the Trident submarine pens in Scotland” (submarine pens do exist in Western France as well, though fully under French command).

In reality, the UK is only a major player in that deadly game because it is an “unsinkable aircraft carrier” for the US forces. Why are our treacherous NWO/ZOG governments still playing that 1940s-1980s Cold War game, and why are they pretending that “we” can fight Russia (in any way at all)? Indeed, why are they still pretending that “we” might “have to” fight Russia anyway, when Russia has no interest in invading Western Europe, Central Europe, or even (most of) Eastern Europe?

Listen to that outright liar. Unbelievable (literally…).

Look at Goodwin’s face! The “cuck” is terrified of even slightly “offending” the Jew-Zionist lobby and its Israeli hub.

I agree with much of that which Goodwin has been saying in recent months. I agree with much, not all, of Reform UK’s views. However, they have several very weak points in their armour. The worst is, of course, this pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby viewpoint, which may be partly sincerely-held (though, if so, it does not say much for Goodwin’s, Farage’s, or Tice’s perspicacity), but is evidently partly in place because Goodwin/Farage/Tice/Reform are afraid of being “cancelled” on TV, radio, newspapers, social media etc by the power and influence of the Jewish/Israeli lobby. Craven.

Israel is no “ally” of the UK. Its founders hanged, shot and blew up British soldiers and civilians even during the 1939-45 war against the German Reich, terrorism that intensified after that war’s end.

[British Army sergeants hanged by Jews in Palestine]

These are the aliens Goodwin calls “allies”…

There are other aspects to Reform UK policy which may put off large numbers of voters, particularly its pseudo-“libertarian” socio-economics, but also the fact that Reform will not deport “legal” non-European migrant-invaders, only (they say) the “illegals”. I doubt whether they will even do that on a large scale, but they say they will…

Reform’s only useful function, in my view, is to break up the existing System “three main parties” scam. Once that is achieved, we’ll see.

I agree, largely, with this, though:

The voters have, most of them, already turned away from both Lab and Con, though the LibDems, as traditional default alternative or dustbin have managed to entice many former Con voters, and many young voters.

The flaws in the Reform policy offering may not much affect the overall result, because people are thoroughly sick of Lab and Con and want things to start to work properly again, putting it at most basic. Lab and Con both have to be destroyed; Reform is the only immediate way to do that.

Perhaps so, but what about the Jew-Zionist-Israel lobby, which suborns police and CPS, and makes false, lying, and indeed perjuring, allegations and accusations to police, professional regulators, the mass media etc under the anti-“antisemitism” banner?

In the UK, the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby is the main danger to free speech and general freedom of expression.

We see the war propaganda everywhere, spread by the usual globalist NWO/ZOG puppets— Macron, Starmer, Tusk, Sikorski etc.

The stupid thing is that, without US backing, none of the European states —not even the UK and France as nuclear powers— can stand up to the Russia they keep pushing.

If push came to shove, and if the push and shove went nuclear, as would probably happen, the USA would stand back, as would China, and the terrible devastation would be only be in Europe and Russia, mostly in Europe, because Russia has about 6,500-7,000 nuclear weapons, whereas France has about 290, and the UK about 225 (about 120 deployable by submarine launch).

The French nuclear force was the force de frappe, changed in the 1960s to force de dissuasion. Deterrence, not challenge to the then Soviet Union, an expansionist power with an expansionist and militant ideology —Marxism-Leninism— at least on the surface.

Russia today is not the old Soviet Union, and its ideology is simple and rather inconsistent Russian nationalism, not one of world conquest.

The fact is that, while the UK and France could badly damage much of Russia in a nuclear match, Russia could wipe out the UK, France, and all other European powers.

These games of “poking the bear” are very stupid and quite likely to light the touchpaper of a major war.

Putin appeared, unusually, in a kind of military combat attire, yesterday. Akin to the Zelensky “cosplay”, but with rather more weight behind it.

Trump has put Zelensky in his place. Z. is a “state beggar”, in effect. Without American arms, money, ammunition, intelligence assistance, “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) cannot continue to fight this war. Trump has therefore been able to railroad the Ukrainian side.

The Kiev regime cabal have little choice, and even their brief show of defiance was based on the hope, a forlorn one, that the UK and EU powers might plug any gap left by the American departure (if it were to happen or continue).

Russia cannot be much pressured by Trump. Therefore, the war will continue unless the Kiev regime at least accepts the minimum reality— that Crimea, and the mainland regions of Donetsk, Lugansk etc (and, a fortiori, that of the Russian oblast of Kursk) will remain Russian in perpetuity. Failing that, the war will continue, and Russian tanks will be in Kiev by 2026.

Russia has its military-logistical problems, but nothing compared to those facing the Kiev-regime side, which is losing hundreds of soldiers daily, and large areas of territory too.

Not so sure about the Churchill bit…

Waitrose was driven into the ground by a West Indian woman whom they employed as CEO. Madness. It used to be such a good place to shop and, I believe, treated its employees well; gave them a modest cut of the profits as well. Now, like the rest of this country, it is going straight down (I refer to, inter alia, Parliament, the courts, the police, the armed forces, the Royal Mail and Post Office, the social security safety net, the monarchy, the countryside…you name it).

A couple of things strike me about that latest opinion poll. Firstly, that the polls are now quite volatile, especially as to whether Labour or Reform is more popular; secondly, that the Conservative Party is pretty much finished now. Few people see it as offering anything to 90% of the population, its policies have now been taken over by fake Labour under Keir Starmer-stein, and it is now not really even seen as relevant. That is so even if you discount the fact that it is now led by a Nigerian woman who was not even living in the UK until she was at least 16.

Incidentally, those opinion poll results would indicate a House of Commons with about 238 Reform UK MPs; 165 Lab; 123 Con; 58 LibDem; SNP 37; Greens 4 (etc).

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

So probably a Reform government backed by Con MPs’ votes. Not ideal, but if it failed to satisfy the British people, a real social-national movement (in or out of Parliament) might well emerge.

You see the deficiencies of our FPTP voting system there. Greens on 10% of the popular vote, but with only ~4 MPs, rather than the 65 that the 10% opinion poll would suggest would be fair. Reform, on the other hand, would be overcompensated, getting a notional 238 MPs instead of the mathematically-indicated 175.

We can say this house is home because it is our home. In much the same way, a country becomes our homeland because it is ours — and the we of that “ours” is the nation, which transcends geography, government, and GDP.”— Matt Goodwin]

Thoughts about “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer’s latest nonsense

Starmer has now commented that he may decide to plant British “boots on the ground” in Ukraine. This is a comment which could only be made by someone with no grasp at all of geopolitical realities, and no thought at all for the welfare of the British people.

So what happens if/when serious fighting breaks out between the forces of the Russian Federation and those of the Kiev regime? Presumably, Starmer will want them to fight on the side of the Kiev-regime forces, i.e. against those of the Russian Federation, unless the British forces would just stand there, or retreat westward.

At that point, a NATO nuclear-armed state’s forces would be in direct armed conflict with Russian nuclear-armed forces. What happens when the Brit forces, maybe thousands of them, are destroyed? Send another tranche? How so, when the battle-ready UK Army numbers around 30,000 (some say fewer)?

Has Starmer thought this through? I think not. He’s useless.

Apart from anything else, the Russian Government would inevitably see the presence of NATO troops in Ukraine, whether designated as “peacekeeping forces” or not, as tantamount to a NATO force in Ukraine and on the side of the Kiev regime.

Madness.

This story just breaking in The Telegraph must spell the end of Lord Hermer’s time as Attorney General. It’s been disclosed Hermer fought for compensation for Mustafa al-Hawsawi , one of the plotters of 9/11 where 2,900 people were killed. Hermer claimed the MoD, MI5 and MI6 were complicit in the torture of Hawsawi who was arrested in Pakistan alongside the 9/11 mastermind in 2003. Hermer started taking the terrorist’s money in 2023. A year later al-Hawsawi pleads guilty to murdering 2,900 people and is sentenced to life meaning life. Let’s get this right. One minute Hermer is accusing the MoD torture the next moment he’s on Labour’s payroll. A total shit. And don’t believe all this tosh about lawyer’s having to take the cab off the rank. As a KC he’s so busy he can pick and choose.who he represents. He chose a terrorist. Says all you need to know about Lord Hermer.

[Kelvin MacKenzie]

Starmer is talking s**t, as usual. Not only would putting UK “boots on the ground” be likely to go very wrong, and potentially lead to a conflict between the UK and Russia, possibly nuclear, but it seems that the quantity and indeed quality of British troops would be inadequate, taking “quality” to include their equipment, arms, armament, air “lift” power etc.

The best soldiers in the world are all but helpless without the right arms, armament, transport, logistics etc. True, in small scale “special forces” situations that is less so, but the Ukrainian theatre is not like that. Do not think Bosnia, Oman, Northern Ireland; think Second World War or, indeed, First World War.

Large armies, large artillery contingents, slugging it out on a vast scale. Even the present overall front-line is something like 900 miles long.

We see retired Brit senior officers saying that the UK government should be doubling military expenditure “to face Russia”. Why? There is actually no need. Russia is only looking (to some) like an adversary because the UK has been backing the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev. Russia would much prefer to have cordial or at least normal relations with the UK.

Even leaving that aside, to scale-up the British armed forces to anything like what would be required to have more than a token effect in Ukraine would take not months but years. Personnel, training, re-equipping, rearming etc. Maybe 5 years.

Where would Britain’s retired senior officers’ new fantasy armies come from? Young people in the UK mostly wish to have nothing to do with anything military or naval, and who can blame them, looking at the increasingly degenerate and shambolic country they live in…

Meanwhile, Britain’s people become poorer by the year, Britain’s road and rail network is not even maintained, for the most part, properly, drug and alcohol abuse is rife, the population is degenerating culturally and ethnically, hutches for migrant-invaders threaten what is left of the green and pleasant land, and idealism (whether real or misplaced), is hard to find.

As Starmer and his advisors scurry to Paris this morning collectively shamed by Washington into finally pulling their finger out on defence, here’s two cold hard realities.

1. The idea of deploying a peacekeeping force to Ukraine is indeed noble. But the UK have four deployable brigades for such a task. These would need to be re-rolled into a coherent entity or BCT, plus a corps level HQ which would be expected by allies. This would exhaust the British Army – with many units up to one third non-deployable. The notion of a 10k UK force I’ve seen doing the rounds is simply laughable. At most, a brigade, and this would exhaust the Army past 18 months (3 rotations).

2. The absolute fallacy of Starmer thinking he can send a credible force – whilst *still* insisting in private he won’t go above 2.65% GDP for defence spending – is utterly shameful. The cost of deploying even one brigade will cost billions extra a year – whilst straining the Army to its seams. To commit UK forces but not be prepared to fund it adequately is shameful, and shows no signs from learning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Worth noting that. Not that I agree that sending Brit troops to Ukraine is in any way “noble“. We, as Brits, have neither selfish interest nor any moral obligation to do so. “Ukraine” as a state has existed for only 33-34 years, since 1991.

Since then, it has been the most corrupt “state” or quasi-state in Europe. The Kiev regime is not only corrupt but brutal and shambolic. Trade unions are banned, dissidents arrested or even shot or otherwise disposed of. Elections should have been held, at latest, a year ago.

Zelensky and his thieving cabal (with their overseas villas and offshore bank accounts) have stolen literally billions, and rule by decree and brute force. Few Ukrainians volunteer to fight; most, almost all now, are either drafted compulsorily or are pressed into service after having been abducted off the streets.

Moreover, Britain has effectively no historical ties of any substance with the region, and none with Ukraine as a state, because until 1991, Ukraine was merely part of the Soviet Union, and before that part of the Russian Empire.

Starmer and his ludicrous Cabinet of idiots have nothing in the tank. I am not referring only to the armed forces but across the board. They are empty of ideals, ideas, policies, and public support.

It funded the fake “movement” set up to oppose Brexit during the 2016 Referendum, and put in as figurehead that ridiculous “Femi” creature (Femi Oluwole), a loudmouth Nigerian know-nothing who makes a living by occasional TV appearances, online donations, and while living in his parents’ house (they are both NHS consultants): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Oluwole.

Just one example.

My favourite bit from the @JDVance speech

“No voter on this continent went to the ballot box to open the floodgates to millions of unvetted immigrants. But you know what they did vote for? In England, they voted for Brexit. And more and more all over Europe, they are voting for leaders who promise to end to out-of-control migration … I just think people care about their homes. They care about their dreams. They care about their safety & capacity to provide for themselves & their children … Contrary to what you might hear in Davos, citizens don’t think of themselves as educated animals or as interchangeable cogs of a global economy.”

Utterly pathetic. Get him a cup of cocoa, or a teddy bear.

Wall. Squad. End.

“The usual suspects”…
