Saturday quiz

Well, 6/10 this week, thus trumping the 3/10 scored by political journalist John Rentoul. I did not know the answers to questions 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Thought out of season

Not so long ago, Britain had a great empire, at peak (after 1919) controlling a nearly a third of this world. Britain took on and won —albeit not alone— great (if unnecessary) wars against both the second German Reich and the later Third Reich (in 1914-1918 and then 1939-1945) and, still later (in the post-1945 Cold War) the Soviet Union.

Now look. Brought down, or being brought down, by a ragtag “army” of blacks and browns (etc) that are not even, most of them, under arms. Migration invasion, and the consequent societal parasitism, cultural collapse, and racemixing (ethnic collapse).

All co-ordinated —at a high level— by those who are the enemies of the future of Britain and the rest of European and European-origined humanity.

While that happens, the mass of the British population are amused by TV game shows, televised spectator sports, gossip about supposed “celebrities” etc.

Pathetic.

Hopefully, the Ukraine war will have ended by 2030, but Russia needs a gamechanger; the present attritional advance is far too slow.

As previously and repeatedly blogged, Britain should leave NATO, not rejoin the oppressive EU, and should develop better relations with Russia. Cost-price gas, and a huge market for British products and services.

[“Several Middle Eastern media outlets have published maps of Iranian strike targets, covering eight countries.

It is stated that the “zero hour” strikes will occur within 24 hours of the start of a new attack by the United States and/or Israel.

The targets are located in Israel, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, and Jordan, and include ports, airports, power plants, water treatment facilities, underwater cables, hotels, and shopping centers.“]

The Iranians are more than justifying the historical reputation of Persia for cunning and subtlety in diplomacy. Despite having only a tiny fraction of the military-destructive power available to the Americans, or even the Israelis, the Iranian leadership has been able to all but cripple the economies of the Gulf mini-states, and badly damage that of Israel.

Moreover, the whole security situation in the Gulf is affecting the economies of various parts of the world: parts of Asia, Europe, and the USA itself.

Meanwhile it is clear that Saudi Arabia is also in serious trouble via the attacks by the Yemeni Houthis.

Talk about “wipeout”! Good grief…

Thoughts out of season

Demographic collapse. Something that has engaged me for a number of years, perhaps triggered in part by my own increasing age (I was 70 in September 2026).

I notice that other thinkers into the future are also increasingly interested in the question; Nick Griffin for one (see his Substack blog).

In the part of the country where I live, on the southern coast of England, the ageing population is very evident. Not only in hospitals but also in supermarkets etc, it appears that almost everyone is well above retirement age. At 70, I should be considered “senior”, to put it politely, but (albeit that many think that I look many years younger than my real age) I at least feel fairly youthful compared to most of the shoppers around me, many of whom require sticks, Zimmer frames, mobility scooters etc.

Will robots save our society, or will they —literally— just support the aged as our whole society becomes totally sclerotic?

The crunch has not quite arrived. 2040?

Gloomy thoughts for a late-Autumnal day.

Both the First World War, and that of 1939-1945, did not start without a build-up. One sees the Western ruling circles and cabals pushing non-stop for conflict with Russia over (supposedly) the war between Russia and the Jew/Ukrainian-thug regime in Ukraine, a war which really has nothing to do, in its ground-reality, with the West, or NATO, let alone with the UK, which has never had more than peripheral contact with Ukraine over the past thousand years.

Were the West to stop supporting the brutal, corrupt, and shambolic Kiev dictatorship with arms and money (etc), the war would fizzle out in weeks. However, that result does not interest the NWO/ZOG cabals which are fuelling the conflict.

The result may be that Russia is pushed and pushed until it strikes with its one real trump card, its nuclear arsenal, at the societies of Western and Central Europe.

The USA would probably strand back, not respond. In the final analysis, the NATO treaty is just a piece of paper. I doubt that the USA would want its 100 biggest cities destroyed for the sake of the cities and military/naval installations of Poland, Germany, France…or the UK (probably the most exposed country of all in some respects).

The Cold War has long vanished into history. There is now no Soviet Union, with an expansionist and Marxist-Leninist ideology.

(a number of tweeters saying that there is no magazine in place; true, in theory, though, there could still be a round “up the spout”).

One has to consider a. why Muslim women want to join the UK police; and b. why they want to join the specialist firearms units.

Cut off all help to the Kiev regime.

Welcome back, brave young woman.

Not completely historically correct, but the main point is valid.

Yes, there have been a large number of cases over the years and decades, in the USA, UK, and elsewhere, of “antisemitic” vandalism (and other types of incident) in fact perpetrated by Jews trying to bolster the “Jews are victims” narrative(s).

Stray thought

I happened to see, yesterday, a brief segment of some political discussion programme featuring the dim-witted Con Party MP, Joy Morrissey. I wrote a short piece about her last year:

“Ecce Joy Morrissey, “Conservative” fake, and MP for Beaconsfield

Translation: “I am not British. I was born in Indiana, and brought up in Ohio. I only came to the UK in the first place to get a degree at the LSE. I married an EU citizen, and then divorced him to marry another. I thereby got the legal right to stay in the UK. I also got the right to work in the UK, but in fact never exercised that right, except that I was briefly and totally unsuccessfully a soft-porn would-be actress. Never mind; my second husband has plenty of money, so I never needed, in 18 years, to get any real job or profession… I just played at Con Party politics— in a think tank, with a Con MP, and as a local Con Party councillor. I then tried, unsuccessfully, to be selected as Con Party candidate for Mayor of London. I did, however, eventually get selected for the safe Con seat at Beaconsfield, because the existing Con MP, Dominic Grieve, was expelled from Con Party by “Boris”-idiot, whom I supported. I have been MP since 2019. In those 6 years, I have accomplished absolutely nothing, and, despite Beaconsfield having been (before I was MP) a very safe seat, my vote at Beaconsfield has fallen from 56% in 2019 to 38% in 2024. I supported uneducated, uncultured and stupid nobody Liz Truss as PM (for 49 days) as well as “Boris”-idiot. I doubt that I will be MP for much longer, but in the meantime will continue to support Israel and its UK Jewish lobby, and support mass immigration, as well as blagging my unmerited and generous salary and expenses.”

[Joy Morrissey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joy_Morrissey]

I lived for 6 months (2001-2002) at Higher Denham, Bucks, within the Beaconsfield constituency, so that idiot would have been my MP had I stayed in the area. At least Fate spared me that.“

The woman wants to destroy what is left of the Welfare State, and also throw money and other support at Israel and the Kiev regime dictatorship.

A total waste of space.

A fake state. A non-state.

Like the Norwegian Blue Parrot in a Monty Python sketch, “Ukraine” (of the Kiev regime) is dead, and would fall off its perch were it not nailed to it (in the case of the Kiev regime, by massive transfers of money, arms, ammunition, medical supplies etc from EU states and NATO states).

Of course Zelensky has never wanted peace. His only chance is to drag NATO into the war.

Zelensky and his cabal have stolen billions of dollars of “aid”, have multimillion villas and other property all over the world (Florida, Israel, Caribbean etc), rule without elections or human rights, and are just a dictatorial gang of leeches.

[“While heavily armed and clad in plastic armor, French, Italian, and Belgian gendarmes, police forces, and other Spanish national guards are trying to quell migrant protesters, stylish Dutch police officers are brutally beating residents of a small town in the Netherlands who are protesting the construction of a refugee center.

I myself saw the gradual slide and disintegration of Dutch society from the 1960s, then 1970s and 1980s; I then heard more from Dutch family friends in the 1990s and in more recent years. Very sad, not to say angering.

“Ukraine is doomed to defeat in any case. Attempts by the West to organize temporary peace negotiations without taking into account the fundamental demands of Moscow are meaningless, because Russia will not agree to a ceasefire in the middle of military operations.“

“Russia is systematically reclaiming territory and will achieve what I previously called a ‘ugly victory.’ This will turn Ukraine into a non-functional stump that will never be able to join NATO. They [the West] don’t want to leave, but they are also unable to win.“]

I prefer my own proposed solution to this geopolitical problem: Russia to keep Crimea, and to keep or take all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper; for Russia to keep or take a strip of 50-100 miles north of the Black Sea; Odessa and Kiev to be “open cities” run autonomously. A rump Ukrainian state to be established in Western Ukraine, centred upon Lvov, that state to be independent but constitutionally neutral and unarmed (disarmed).

Translates to a Commons with about 228 Reform MPs (potentially fewer, by reason of Restore, though Restore is itself on a mere 3%; the model I use has not yet added Restore).

So anyway Reform 98 short of a majority. 217 Labour MPs, 71 LibDems, 69 Cons (so near-irrelevant; unable even to make an arrangement with Reform). SNP 30 [etc].

A weak minority government at best. Might lead to a second election not long after. Good, though, for social-nationalism.

I blogged about all that yesterday. Flagging the removal of the Triple Lock will mean almost all pensioners who might have voted Labour (a smallish minority anyway) will not now vote Labour.

As a personality, Burnham is, arguably, marginally or even somewhat to be preferred to Starmer-stein, but Burnham seems equally clueless.

[“Belarusian cargo heads to China via Russia’s Northern Sea Route

A vessel carrying 77,000 tons of Belarusian cargo has departed Russia’s Ust-Luga port, beginning a voyage to northeastern China via the Northern Sea Route.

The ship is bound for Baiyuan port and is expected to arrive on October 13.

The voyage highlights the growing use of Russia’s Arctic shipping corridor for trade between Europe and Asia, offering an alternative to traditional maritime routes.

77,000 tons, one Arctic route — and another sign that global trade is being rerouted.”]

[“**Kyiv is becoming a frontline city** *The Washington Post* reports that **Kyiv is increasingly resembling a frontline city**, as Russian drone strikes reportedly target facilities linked to Ukraine’s military infrastructure. The attacks are also causing disruption and destruction in the capital, prompting renewed concern over civilian areas and essential infrastructure. The report comes amid continued fighting and Kyiv’s ongoing appeals to Western allies for **more funding and air-defense missiles**. With winter approaching, Ukraine faces another major challenge: **protecting critical infrastructure while keeping the capital functioning under sustained attacks.** **Kyiv is fighting the war at the front — and increasingly, the front is coming to Kyiv.**”]

[“Nigel Farage and I have been referenced in a “hate crime conference” for police officers, which took issue with people questioning the hate marches and the extent of Muslim integration in Britain, the Telegraph reports. Specifically, the Muslim speaker criticised the fact that I dared to share a survey on @GBNEWS showing large numbers of British people question whether Islam really is compatible with British life. Apparently, that is not allowed. Sorry, but this is what we in the West call “free speech”, “free expression”, and “debate”. While Andy Burnham’s Labour is fast-tracking Orwellian measures to shut down these debates, those of us in the Common Sense Majority will never stop having them. And why is the increasingly woke police being given openly biased training sessions like this?

Tell you what. I would happily come along to the “York and North Yorkshire Hate Conference” to share my views and provide a bit of balance. If the organisers are reading, send me a note.“]

The police have been behaving like compliant brainwashed clowns for the past 20+ years. They roll up to “conferences” of that sort, and allow themselves to be ranted at, either by Islamists, or by non-white “multikultis”, or by malicious Jews of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” type (despite the fact that the main personalities of the “CAA” are proven liars and perjurers).

The police as a poundshop Stasi. It has to stop. Get them back doing their proper job(s).

It is in the interest of the police themselves to stop. if not, then when push comes to shove they will share the fate of Britain’s treacherous MPs, scribblers, talking heads, and other riff-raff.

Late tweets

What Burnham and Labour have failed to understand is that, yes, maybe “only” 28% of voters oppose dumping the Triple Lock, but almost all of those are people over 60 y-o.

About a third of the electorate (not the whole population 0-100) is now aged 65+; probably 40% or more are aged 60+. In other words, it can be inferred that a very high percentage of those aged 60+, and almost all of those aged 65+, oppose dumping the Triple Lock. These are the people who always vote (admittedly, I myself am an exception). If 28% of eligible voters are against dumping the Triple Lock, then probably about 40% of voters who are actually going to vote oppose these proposals.

I think that Labour will find that much of their support among the over 60s, maybe also over-50s, will fall away now. Why? Because those getting or about to get the State Pension are really interested in what happens to the Triple Lock, whereas younger people, whatever their views, are naturally not going to be so interested, so their approval of Burnham’s plans is not very important politically, electorally; they have other issues of importance to them.

One point to bear in mind is that the official inflation figures do not reflect the real state of play. Inflation is usually far higher than the official figures suggest, and that particularly applies to the staples that poorer people, and many pensioners in particular, buy regularly.

That last tweeter may be unable to spell but, of course, is correct. Money taken from pensioners will go to, inter alia, “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev), importing and then sheltering and feeding millions of useless black/brown parasites, supporting the USA’s overseas adventures, and then on a myriad projects most of which will not benefit either older or younger (real) British people.

The Burnham cretin has presumably not considered the matter in sufficient detail.

[“NEWS: The Islamist organisation 5 Pillars has reported John Cleese to the Prevent Programme after John made factual, accurate and valid statements about Islam

John’s statements on Islam:

“To criticise a culture whose holy book advocates the killing of all the people they disagree with…is not racist. It’s culturalist.”

“traditional British values are under attack from Muslim belief systems, especially the Koranic demands to kill ‘infidels’.”

“I personally prefer a culture that does not approve of Female Genital Mutilation, Child Marriage and Killing Infidels.”

“Another religious diktat from the Pro-Paedophila Propaganda Department.”

5 Pillars are a vile organisation who should not exist in the UK

We value freedom of speech and expression especially when it comes to criticising ideologies or religions.“]

In fact, John Cleese need not worry about being arrested. If the initial referral to Prevent is then passed to police, and if that initial screening reveals no security threat or “danger of radicalization” (i.e. which might lead to “terrorist” activity), the police close the file, though in some cases may refer the matter to mental health services to to the so-called “Channel” multi-agency outfit.

Cleese can carry on carrying on, in short.

Unusual. Most of the anti-free-speech pressure in the UK comes from the Jew-Zionist pro-Israel lobby. 95%.

I blogged long ago, in 2018, about the stupid “Prevent”/”Channel” nonsense:

If John Cleese is really taken by surprise by that, he must have been asleep for the past 25 years.

Zelensky has no other choice but to try to involve other countries in the conflict, according to Do Rzeczy, citing expert Andrzej Zapałowski. He is convinced that Kyiv will increasingly resort to provocations, including under false flags, in order to expand the geographical scope of the Ukrainian conflict.

Meanwhile, Kyiv is sacrificing Ukrainians, who are dying in the thousands in the zone of the special military operation. The scale of the losses is appalling, and the soldiers are not motivated. Maintaining the front line under these conditions is becoming increasingly difficult.”]

Zelensky has been trying for that since 2022. I get the impression that the Poles are far less naive about Zelensky and his Jew-Zionist/Ukrainian-thug cabal than are stupid Western political careerists such as “Who-He?” Burnham and Starmer-stein.

Britain is in a similar position.

What must happen must happen, or the British people, meaning the real Brits, will be all but wiped out by 2100 at latest, and will be a powerless and increasingly small minority by 2040. In fact, there are clear signs of that already.

In the event of a large-scale conflict, the E-6B is capable of transmitting secure commands to strategic forces and maintaining control of the nuclear triad even if conventional communication channels are disrupted.
Therefore, the appearance of such an aircraft in the direction of the Middle East inevitably attracts attention. Its movements and some flight data can be tracked through open aviation services

More Swedish madness

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/sep/20/british-man-torn-from-swedish-wife-and-home

“Doubled over a Heathrow baggage trolley, the former British business director is sobbing uncontrollably, exhausted emotionally and physically after being deported from Sweden.

Hours earlier the 65-year-old had been marched on to a plane in Stockholm, separated from his home and his Swedish wife after a five-year battle to stay in the country after Brexit came to an end.

An only child with no children and no property in the UK, Charles has in effect been made homeless. He was last in the UK in 2022 for one week, and before that not since 2017 when he emigrated.

“I have nothing, nothing in the UK at all,” says Charles as he shows a text from the British consulate explaining where in Heathrow those suddenly left homeless can get help.

“All I want is to return to my wife, my home and my friends in Sweden and to live a quiet, peaceful life,” adds Charles, who does not want to publicly share his full identity.

His forced flight on Tuesday shows that deportations of British citizens who lived in Sweden before Brexit are continuing. Stockholm has already deported 458 British people after rejected residency applications, a higher proportion in terms of its population than any EU member state.“

[Guardian]

Just mad. Deported from Sweden, Sweden of all countries, the country which has allowed in literally millions of useless blacks and browns in the past 30 years (the Swedish population is nearly 11M, and about 1.5M of those are non-white).

Back in the 1980s, Sweden was fairly strict about entry; I have blogged in the past about how I was refused entry at the port of Malmo in 1982, and was sent back to Travemunde (in the then Bundesrepublik (West Germany), on the border of the DDR (East Germany), but that was before Sweden surrendered to the black/brown migration invasion.

This really is just mad: a (real) British person deported after 9 years lawfully in Sweden without any problem, yet millions of blacks and browns allowed to stay there (almost all heavily subsidized, and many committing crimes as well). Some Somalis are even in the pathetic Swedish Parliament (Riksdag) now. Mad.

Russian Urals oil in Western ports has risen above $110 per barrel – the highest level since April. The increase is supported by high demand and expensive Brent crude.

In France, fuel shortages have begun at gas stations. Macron has demanded that the government implement “full mobilization” to ensure supplies and control prices, amid calls for protests. In Poland, Prime Minister Donald Tusk is warning of possible record-high fuel prices. He says that prices could soon reach levels that previously seemed impossible.“]

The BBC found the one inhabitant of Piddington village who thinks English protesters, and the 350 English villagers around her, more of a threat to the village and herself than thousands of black and brown migrant-invaders (all male) .

Turns out that she is a loonie and socio-politically tendentious woman (I think maybe Australian or New Zealand origin, probably the latter), who apparently has 2 mixed-race children, having been “knocked-up” at some point by a black.

Seems that I was right; looks like my ear for accents and languages has not yet deserted me:

I have no idea why, but I have yet to meet a New Zealand woman, and I have met many, who is not a giant pain in the ****.

Why that should be, I do not know, but they all seem to be very feministic, very politically-correct/”woke”, very judgmental, and —every single one— a complete waste of space. Must be something to do with the education offered over there.

I do not know personally, neither have I ever met, NWO/ZOG political puppet and former NZ PM, Jacinda Ardern, but I believe that she is exactly the same, from what I have seen of her in the msm etc.

The woman featured seems unable to distinguish between the villagers tolerating her, her black “partner” (probably a West Indian), and her mixed-race children, and the same villagers (about 350 in number) being invaded by between 1,500 and 3,500 black and brown men from the most backward parts of the world.

Still, what does that mean when Russia has untold, but certainly tens of thousands, of conventional missiles, up to 7,000 nuclear weapons, and also the ability to place thousands of drones in the field in any 24-hour period?

Also, if Germany provides Patriot missiles to the Kiev regime, those missiles will not be available for German use, if push comes to shove.

Israel is doomed, at least in the medium term.

More Israeli war crimes.

Good riddance.

[“SHOCKING: Katie’s Hopkins news this morning following court case.

This is a lesson for all those attempting to sabotage someone’s career and life.

Katie Hopkins has taken to social media with the following statement.

STATEMENT FROM KATIE HOPKINS

A ‘man’ responsible for pressurising my venues to cancel has been found GUILTY of FOUR counts of blackmail by a jury at Southampton Crown Court.

Blackmail is a serious criminal offence and carries a prison term. Sentencing is on 16 October 2026.

I remind those pressurising venues to cancel performers: this is a criminal act.

I require theatres that were cowed by one criminal, to reinstate my fully sold-out shows.

I thank the Crown Prosecution Service and Dorset Police for being splendid.

And to the jury, God speed in all you do.

STATEMENT ENDS

Having worked with Katie Hopkins I am thrilled that the Jury came to the right decision. She is a warm, kind and superb woman with exceptional talent.

This sets precedent and I encourage anyone facing similar challenges to take action.

Finally, go see her show. Best belly laugh you’ll get!

Justice!“]

Of course, most such “cancelling” or pressuring of venues etc is done by the malicious Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, in particularly the liars and perjurers of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.

David Icke, Gilad Atzmon, Alison Chabloz and many others have suffered such attacks.

Even I myself, when I was in my early 20s (late 1970s) and had my own small party.

Yes, that does mean that such Jew-Zionist tactics preceded the establishment of the “CAA”. The Jew-Zionist troublemakers were “at it” even in the 1950s (against Oswald Mosley, Colin Jordan etc) and, indeed, in the 1930s (against Mosley and his BUF and others) and even in the 1920s (in the UK, but also, and more so, in Germany, against the then-small NSDAP led by Adolf Hitler).

Years ago, I described Trump as “a loudly squawking parrot in a gilded cage, and guarded by a phalanx of Jews“, and I have seen little since then that might cause me to revise that view.

The System parties, especially Labour, are pretending that the migration invasion is not a major issue, has no real downside, or at least is being “handled”. All lies.

It may be time for a “fourth Reich”…

Good.

Late talking point

Starmer-stein is utterly clueless both on domestic policy and foreign policy, a fact which I noted on the blog about 5 years ago, long before the bastard managed to fool 4 out of every 20 people to vote Labour in 2024.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week a firm victory over political journalist John Rentoul: he scored a modest 3/10, which was trumped by my 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, and 7 and, though I had an idea about question 3, did not get the name.

[“Ukraine: the video embarrassing Kiev, filmed by Swedish television itself A few seconds before SVT’s live broadcast from central Kiev, Bengt Norborg’s team’s camera captures a scene to say the least brutal: several men pounce on a Ukrainian and forcibly bundle him into a van. The most embarrassing thing for Kiev? It’s not an anonymous video from Telegram.

It’s Swedish public television that filmed the scene.

It’s their own correspondent who notes that a man has just been arrested to be mobilized.

And SVT itself describes a hunt conducted day and night in Ukrainian streets. (SVT Nyheter) According to SVT, up to two million men are trying to evade mobilization within the country, while recruitment service and police patrols continue to search for them.“]

To be forcibly “recruited” by the goons of the Kiev regime is as good as a death sentence. The regime is losing 1,000-2,000 men per day on its crumbling front lines.

Meanwhile, the recent ballistic missile attacks on Kiev have (as predicted on the blog some time ago) made the point that Russia will not tolerate the daily escalation by the Kiev side in attacks on Russian civilian areas. Russian patience is now wearing very thin, I think.

Neither side should be directly targeting civilians. The Russian side has hit Ukrainian civilians mostly as collateral damage (not that that makes it any the more bearable for the victims) but the Kiev regime is deliberately targeting Russian civilians; their homes, hospitals, warehouses, school buses etc.

So the Kiev regime is currently sending about 350 drones every day, and that is only to the Moscow region.

[“It has become clear why the video of the victims was blurred in Ukraine, following the Iskander strike with a cluster munition component on trucks near Kyiv in Boryspil.

In the photos taken inside the burned-out trucks, you can see transport and launch systems for long-range drones, specifically the FP-2.”]

15 million (mostly) untermenschen have flooded into Germany in recent years. Mad.

Germany, like the UK, is a fake “democracy”. The facade is democratic, but that soon morphs into tyranny, when stressed.

Talking point

Ha ha! I had better say nothing…

[“Pointless looking at individual polls which are out of whack with all the others. Look at the weekly poll of polls. Labour’s at 26 – a crushing loss that would leave them with 220-260 seats – and Reform’s at 25. It’s fractionally better in the Andy Honeymoon phase but still disastrous and likely to get worse not better. Still disastrous for the Tories too. The complacency from everyone is stunning. Reform are a mess but still polling at 25. Nobody’s found the antidote. Hence #Moderates!“]

Leaving aside that lady’s own fantasy political party, the “Moderates”, I agree with the rest of that. Reform are a disaster in every way but one, i.e. that they will be (continue to be) voted for as a default attack on the old System parties. People see nothing good in those old parties; to get rid of them, they have to vote Reform despite its poor policy offering. People are voting against, rather than for, and that has been the case for several years now.

(((Typical)))?

Never forget…

Britain really is a joke country now. Not only is Lammy an MP and indeed Cabinet minister, but is now also appointed a Bencher at my old Inn of Court, Lincoln’s, whereas —by reason of my wrongful and unlawful disbarment in 2016— I myself am now persona non grata there. Sour grapes aside, is it not truly ridiculous? False modesty aside, I should be the one in government (and respected elsewhere), not that stupid monkey.

I know that others have been unjustly degraded, historically, whether it be Jesus Christ or Sir Thomas More (or Hitler, if you like), but it really is absurd.

Sometimes you have to accept Fate, without however accepting the rightness of it.

I was surprised to discover, last year, that I had (though only very slightly) met one or two of the defendant’s relatives in the mid-1980s; I blogged about it:

[“Bashirov: All the bad things Ukraine is doing are the work of British intelligence services.

LONDON PROVOKES CONFLICTS AROUND THE WORLD IN EVERY WAY AND SUPPORTS THEM BECAUSE IT PROFITS FROM THEM.

Approximately 75% of its GDP comes from services: banking, insurance, marketing, and the stock market. The British control about 10% of the global services market. If Russia, the United States, and China one day agree on a new transportation and economic model, many British brokerage firms will become unnecessary.

Trump began fighting for transportation corridors. He not only expelled China from Venezuela, but also Chinese port companies from the Panama Canal. He closed it. Trump is also controlling the current Suez Canal crisis with the help of Israel. Things are more complicated with China, but he has secured control of the European market.”]

Looks like the UK is in the gunsights of some of the Russian leadership, or those around them, which would not be the case were the UK not controlled by the NWO/ZOG cabals.

The tweet seems to refer to this individual: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandr_Bashirov.

Crime of Passion

The British TV series Crime of Passion, which ran from 1971-1973, is now almost forgotten. In fact, the main character who always appeared was the judge, played by Anthony Newlands [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Newlands#Filmography], and his Wikipedia entry does not even mention Newlands’ role in Crime of Passion; neither is there a Wikipedia entry for the series itself [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_of_passion_(disambiguation)].

In late 1971, I was just 15, and had returned from a 3-week stay with a French couple who lived in the Rue de l’Arbalete in the 5th arrondisement of Paris, a Paris which, I think, does not exist any more.

I loved Crime of Passion, which I thought at the time might be an Anglo-French production. In fact, not. It was the kind of literate, not-boring, well-made drama never seen today, and of course had no performative blacks/gays/lesbians (etc), nor any virtue-signalling nonsense in the script.

Crime of Passion was an ATV production, and was based on actual cases in the French courts, in which, until 1976, a plea of crime passionel was an excuse legale in relation to a prosecution for homicide in circumstances where a husband had caught his wife in flagrante with a lover. A successful plea of crime passionel reduced the sentence very considerably (from death or life imprisonment in most cases, to a couple of years in prison or even complete acquittal, though the latter was rare.

The change of law in 1976 was part of a general updating of laws previously based on the Code Napoleon.

Hard to believe that the surviving 29 episodes (3 others having been wiped) of that series have never been put on VHS or DVD, or revived on one of the “nostalgia” TV channels.

I found this episode on YouTube:

Who knows? Maybe Crime of Passion, along with another TV series of those times, Crown Court, subliminally led me, if only by a meandering or crooked path, to the Bar.

Odessa.

[“Two barges, each 80 meters long, were deliberately sunk in the Danube River in Hungary, near the “Paks” nuclear power plant, in order to temporarily raise the water level and ensure the operation of the remaining two working turbines amid an unprecedented drought.

Currently, the power plant is operating at only 25% of its capacity, while a permanent dam is being constructed in the riverbed, according to Reuters.

Romania has already shut down its last operating reactor due to low water levels in the Danube.”]

I wish I had the power to order them executed in the field.

Like a plague of rats.

Exactly what happened in the early 1920s in Germany. The Weimar Republic regime stood by as hyperinflation destroyed the integrity of the German currency. Jews from outside Germany then conspired with Jews inside Germany to exploit the terrible situation by buying assets for a fraction of the true value (the international, historic value). Industrial assets, great works of art, jewels, gold etc.

In fact, though the hyperinflation was over by 1924-1925, the events destroyed also the trust of German people in System government, and partly laid the ground for the 1933 triumph of National Socialism.

Milei has to be removed. All assets bought by Jews and Israeli organizations in Argentina should be confiscated as, in effect, the proceeds of crime.

Somewhere between a lunatic and an enemy of his own people and all people (except billionaires and/orJews, it seems).

I find myself hoping that the next “attempt” on him will succeed. The only problem would be that his present vice-President might be worse, and then succeeded by another yet worse (and Democratic Party) puppet of Israel.

This is why Basic Income must come. Marx —impliedly— foresaw it.

[“You are 59% Fascist, which makes you a Crypto-Fascist.

It would appear that there is a significant degree of agreement between your preferred political doctrines and those of fascism. Since fascism is really a mix of communism, socialism, conservatism, and liberalism, with a few innovations of its own thrown in, it is scarcely surprising that most people’s political outlook will have quite a few similarities with the doctrines of fascism. However, even after taking these thresholds into account, the most likely interpretation of your answers on the test is that you are someone who is right on the verge of being a fascist proper. Now, maybe you don’t think of yourself in that way, but nevertheless research in the social sciences has repeatedly shown that a significant percentage of the population is naturally attracted to authoritarian political doctrines (of which fascism is but one example). In fact, one study even found that in the case of people who are drawn to order and control, these values are more important to them than more mainstream political parameters, such as the traditional left and right. In all likelihood, those values are among the most important ones to you as well.

For another approach to testing for fascist beliefs, see the classical F Scale Test.“]

Ha. Amusing. 59%.

I wonder how many of both my supporters and enemies would think of me as “crypto”? I should have thought, not many. I suppose I am basically a person of reason, though.

https://www.idrlabs.com/fascism/test.php

Well, I tried that other test suggested:

[“This makes you 19.6% more authoritarian than the average person.“]

Seems that I am anyway less harsh than my enemies suppose.

He has a point. After all, look at Medvedev. He is far harsher. As for others, there are many Russians far far more extreme than Putin.

She is right, but the point is that Labour is as good as finished either way. Even in 2024, Starmer-stein’s Labour only managed to get 4 votes out of every 20 eligible voters; 4 votes out of every 12 votes actually cast.

Out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 did not vote, 4 voted Lab, 3 voted Con, 2 voted Reform, 2 voted LibDem (though in fact the LibDems were far below Reform in numbers), and 1 (just about) voted Green.

Well, since then, Labour has slid in the opinion polls, and the Con Party under its Nigerian woman leader has also slid. The latest poll has Labour on only 25%, Reform on 24%, and the Cons below 20%, compared to 34% (Lab), 24% (Con), and 14% (Reform) in 2024.

Andy Burnham may have paper constitutional legitimacy, but will not have even notional real legitimacy until he holds and wins a general election. Of course, as the lady tweeter says, to hold one now would be almost suicidal. At least 100, maybe 200, Labour MPs would be culled.

That tweeter, Fiona-Natasha Syms, is an odd woman. Ex-wife of an ex-MP (Conservative).

I sometimes enjoy her tweets, but she is utterly loonie. Says she is a former “liberal Conservative”, that that she has her own (fantasy) party, “the Moderates”, which seems not very moderate to me.

Wants to take off the State Pension “Triple Lock” (thus making pensioners poorer), be more generous to young and (supposedly) mentally-impaired benefits claimants. Strange in a woman who supported and still praises the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and “George” (Gideon) Osborne, who intensified Gordon Brown-Labour’s attack on the disabled and/or unemployed to an unprecedented extent, allowing the dishonest, dim and nasty part-Jap expenses fraudster, Dunce Duncan Smith, free rein.

Oh, and she does not want to stop the migration invasion, yet thinks that the UK needs more “defence” against the non-existent “Russian threat”.

She seems to think that a black/brown Britain would be fine, and calls anyone against that future “fash” (“fascist”), a term I only ever see, otherwise, from “antifa” and/or Jew “antifascist” tweeters.

Even today, she was tweeting in defence of that black “academic” con-man, Jason Arday, who killed himself the other day when his fakery was publicized.

Well, there it is. One cannot expect rationality from the irrational, and I suspect and have suspected that the members of her “Moderates” fantasy party are about as numerous as the empty bottles in her kitchen. If that.

I doubt that the lady’s “Moderates”, even if they existed in the real world, would do better than the smallest fringe parties. Pensioners would not vote for her, anyone sceptical of the “need” for money to be wasted on defence against fantasy “threats” would not vote for her, and neither would anyone wanting to stop the migration invasion.

In fact, she did try to become an MP at one point, at the 2016 by-election at Richmond Park, but ended up in 5th place (out of 8) with 173 votes (11 votes behind the Monster Raving Loony Party); 0.4% of the votes cast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richmond_Park_(constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s

Incidentally, that black “academic” faker’s contrived and proven-to-be untrue memoirs are now selling well on a wave of buying by virtue-signalling idiots. At £20+ a copy, apparently.

Ha ha. She’s an idiot. (they both are).

That Arday con-man was nearly as inventive and dishonest as the fraudulent one-time/supposed “activist” and dog’s dinner cook, “Jack Monroe”.

“Jack Monroe”— now there’s a blast from the past. I wonder whether any of the (at one time) 400+ utter mugs who were, years ago, sending her money every month (from £3 to £44) are still sending her any? Some people are such total imbeciles that it might well be so…

Looking at the mugs buying that Arday faked “memoir” book, it does tend to show that the pro-multikulti and “antifascist” types are so mired in delusion that they will do almost anything to shore up their delusionary worldview.

Ukraine has reportedly used British-made drones to strike Russian industrial and military facilities.

The publication claims that the Nyan drone, a jet-powered drone from BAE Systems that was previously undergoing trials with the Royal Navy, along with a drone from another manufacturer, were used to target oil refineries in the Moscow, Yaroslavl, and Volgograd regions“]
