Announcement
As announced yesterday, the magistrates’ court trial to which I was made subject went badly for me. I cannot blog about that at present.
I am presently due to be sentenced at the end of January, or in February, of 2024. After that, I have 15 working days, i.e. three weeks, in which to serve any Notice of Appeal. Any appeal hearing, before a Circuit Judge (sitting with two magistrate-assessors), would be a complete rehearing, which would probably not happen until the Autumn of 2024, perhaps not until 2025.
I shall decide in February 2024, post-sentencing, whether I shall appeal.
Saturday quiz
Well, a poor score this week, a mere 4/10; I see that John Rentoul scored similarly. I knew the answers only to questions 2, 3, 4, and 7.

“SHOCKING CCTV footage shows the moment a teenage boy killed an 82-year-old Army veteran with a single punch.
Omar Moumeche, who was 16 at the time, attacked Dennis Clarke at Derby bus station after the veteran told off his friends for messing about on an escalator.
The pensioner suffered a fractured skull as well as a bleed on the brain and died in hospital nine days after the assault on May 6, 2021.
Moumeche, now 18, was found guilty of manslaughter in July, with the judge sentencing the killer yob to two years in youth detention at Derby Crown Court today.
No further action was taken against two other teenage boys who were arrested at the time in connection with the attack.”

“Omar Moumeche“? So… Algerian, presumably. Why is he even here? Why is his family here?
Life certainly is cheap in Britain’s wonderful new “diverse” multikulti paradise…
Imagine what this country will be like in another 30 or 50 years. I am actually glad that I shall not be here to see it.
Thus Britain, through the gradual acceptance of stupid “laws” and “rules” (invalid and/or misinterpreted) becomes a multikulti and “biosecurity” “poundland” police state.
“The only man alive who can tell you what it is like to be EXECUTED after three Death Row staff in Alabama spent 90 agonising minutes trying – and failing – to give him a lethal injection.”
[Daily Mail]
The U.S. Constitution is a bad joke in most respects. Here is one example. The 8th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution forbids “cruel and unusual punishment“. Then look at what has been found to be not “cruel and unusual,” such as these ghastly lethal injection executions and, of course, the classic one, the electric chair, which can take several minutes and may fry someone alive, in effect.
The U.S. Constitution, looked upon by most Americans as if holy writ, when in fact it was just a document cobbled together by a bunch of freemasons (many of them), partly (it is said) in a New York City tavern.

Another symptom of the rot in plain sight now in our society.
…and again…even more “diversity”. How wonderful…
“A total of 356 asylum seekers were intercepted by Border Force officials from seven boats and escorted into Dover, Kent, throughout the day.”

…and still they come. Migrant-invaders. Migration-invasion.

The wrongheadedness of the “austerity” drive since 2010, which badly damaged the UK economy, especially in the years 2010-2015, but was sold to the unthinking British people as “necessary”.
That was a long time ago. The world is now overpopulated, and particularly with non-Europeans. A reduction of the world’s population to about 10% of what it is now is very desirable, but of course the remaining population has to be mainly ethnically European.

I do not know the details of the case, but the penalties do seem extremely heavy, just speaking generally.

“You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your
fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who
have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the
past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon
the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in
which their bodies have long decayed.
Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can
change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has
inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will
and courage.
You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass
your blood on to your children, for you are a member of
the chain of generations that reaches from the past into
eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent
must do its part so that the chain is never broken.
But if your blood has traits that will make your children
unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the
heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will
lives.”

If I am not mistaken, that is the India/Pakistan border. Both sides indulge in military march theatricals, a strange macho posturing performance.
“They” can never be believed.
