…and now the Israeli Jews, apparently backed by most Zionist Jews from other parts of the world, are, literally, deliberately starving to death the Arab Palestinians of Gaza, including the children. The same Jew-Zionists who are always whining about the alleged treatment of their ancestors by Germans (and Poles, and Ukrainians, and French etc) during WW2, a conflict which ended 80 years ago.

Interesting.

…thus proving that 64% of the UK population in 2020 were unthinking, panicked, deliberately-stampeded idiots.

Immigration, on the scale seen by the UK for half a century, impacts everything, and every other issue.

Migration invasion. Migration occupation. Utterly disastrous.

Incidentally, only people whose great-grandparents were born in the UK (or in northern Europe, and to properly-European parents) should be entitled to vote in elections here.

Free speech? What free speech?

I happened to see the following report in the online Mail on Sunday/Daily Mail:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14424959/Knock-knock-Thought-Police-thousands-criminals-uninvestigated-detectives-call-grandmother-crime-went-Facebook-criticise-Labour-councillors-centre-Hope-Die-WhatsApp-scandal-exposed-MoS.html

Highlights from that news report:

EXCLUSIVE— Knock knock, it’s the Thought Police: As thousands of criminals go uninvestigated, detectives call on a grandmother. Her crime? She went on Facebook to criticise Labour councillors at the centre of the ‘Hope you Die’ WhatsApp scandal exposed by the MoS.

In a chilling clampdown on free speech, two police officers pay a visit to a grandmother – simply for criticising Labour politicians on Facebook.

Detectives were last night accused of acting like East Germany‘s feared Stasi secret police for quizzing Helen Jones over her calls for the resignation of local councillors embroiled in the WhatsApp scandal exposed by The Mail on Sunday.

Police conceded that the 54-year-old had committed no crime – yet Mrs Jones says she has effectively been silenced by the officers, as she was intimidated by them calling at her door and is too terrified to post on social media again.

‘It was actually quite scary. It made me think I best just keep quiet for the rest of my life, because you just can’t say anything these days,’ she said.

The response by Greater Manchester Police was also branded a waste of time and scant resources at a time when so many crimes go uninvestigated.

Toby Young, director of the Free Speech Union, said: ‘This is typical of the weird authoritarian atmosphere that has grown up in Britain since Sir Keir Starmer took control. Good luck persuading Greater Manchester Police to send two police officers to your house if you’re burgled or your car is stolen.'”

It is the latest in a string of incidents in which police have investigated people for social media posts, including newspaper columnist Allison Pearson, feminist writer Julie Bindel, and former policeman Harry Miller, whose name was added to a database for his ‘non-crime hate incident’. Mr Miller, who founded the Fair Cop campaign group, said of Mrs Jones’s treatment: ‘It flies in the face of our freedoms and it’s wrong. That’s far more akin to a European police force – or even worse a Stasi police force.’

At around 1.30pm last Tuesday, while Mrs Jones was looking after her baby grandson at a nearby house, a detective sergeant and another officer knocked at her door and spoke to her husband Lee, 54, via an intercom.

A shocked Mrs Jones rushed home fearing something tragic had happened to a loved one. At 2.15pm she received a phone call from an officer thought to be the same sergeant who knocked on her door and was told the police had received a complaint about her recent social media posts.

Speaking exclusively to the MoS, she said: ‘[The officer] said, ‘We’ve had a complaint,’ and I immediately asked, ‘From who?’, and he said, ‘Well, I can’t tell you that’.’

She asked if Cllr Sedgwick or his partner had made the complaint. ‘[The officer’s] exact words were ‘Your thought process is correct in that’,’ said Mrs Jones. ‘I asked the police officer, have I committed any sort of crime. Why did you call at my door? They said, ‘Someone has spoken to us about your social media posts.’

‘I then said, ‘If I don’t take your advice and continue doing what I am doing, will I be committing a crime?’ He said no. I then asked. ‘What will you do about it?’ He said, ‘There’s not a lot we can do, we are just giving you advice’.’

[Mail on Sunday/Daily Mail]

Regular readers of the blog will know that I have had similar experiences over the past decade (see below), all instigated by the Jew-Zionist lobby cabals, but you will not see or hear Toby Young, his “Free Speech Union”, the Daily Mail, Daily Telegraph, or scribbler Allison Pearson mention that, or defend my rights.

Incidentally, Toby Young puts the blame entirely on Starmer and fake Labour, who have only been in government for 7-8 months. The poundland police state in the UK goes back much further, certainly to Tony Blair’s premiership.

My own experiences as target of police-state measures instigated by Jew-Zionist pro-Israel fanatics go back to at least 2012, when the part-Jew David Cameron-Levita was PM. The same is true of the years when other part-Jews were in government as Prime Minister(s) of the UK in recent years— Theresa May and “Boris” Johnson, as well as during the government of the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.

Stasi

Having seen (above) how the UK’s police are, or have turned into, a kind of poundshop Stasi, here is some “Ostalgie” about the real ones from the now-long-defunct DDR, which odd small state I myself saw, though not for long, in 1988:

Trump as potential “third term” U.S. President

John Bolton, a typical NWO/ZOG globalist drone.

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

All the same, the talk of Trump having a third term as President is interesting. Most people are dismissing the idea out of hand, but I wonder.

The last President to be elected to a third term (and I think the only one) was F.D. Roosevelt, in 1940; he was then once more elected, to a fourth term, in 1944, but died in office in 1945.

The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, restricting the number of terms to two, was adopted in 1947 but only ratified in 1951.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution#Attempts_at_repeal_or_reform

U.S. Constitutional amendments can be repealed by a further amendment, e.g. when the 18th Amendment (Prohibition) was repealed by the 21st Amendment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_amendments_to_the_Constitution_of_the_United_States.

Amaury de Riencourt, in his stellar work, The Coming Caesars [pub. 1957] examined the possibility of a U.S. President becoming (as many thought Roosevelt would become), an “American Caesar” (a designation also used for Douglas MacArthur, who many once saw as a future President, but who never seriously attempted to become one).

Late thoughts

Saw a few minutes of Sky News Press Preview. Guest? The Jew (I think the name was Rosenberg) who apparently heads the Board of Deputies of British Jews, i.e. the voice of the Jews, or most of them (?), in the UK. Needless to say, pro-Zelensky etc.

Zelensky’s “offer” to resign if he gets what he has been demanding for several years, i.e. Ukraine’s membership of NATO, is of course just a bad joke, a complete nullity.

The fact is that the balance of power in that war, and in Eastern Europe, perhaps all of Europe, has tipped decisively. Zelensky is an irrelevance now, and his Kiev regime is obviously going to implode; either that, or Russian tanks will be in or around Kiev by 2027 at the latest.

Likewise, Starmer, Macron, and whoever now heads Germany, are sidelined.

This may change everything, even in the UK.

News from the multikulti society

https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/24528641.bully-squeezed-girlfriends-c-section-scar-days-gave-birth/

Southampton pub landlady has spoken about ‘horrendous’ abuse from her ‘bully’ ex-partner – who squeezed her C-section wound days after having their baby.

[defendant and victim prior to the material events]

The court heard he had been previously convicted for offences involving Anneliese dating back to June 2020, when he choked, punched and kicked her, as well as damaging property – receiving a suspended sentence.

But things escalated again when she found out she was pregnant with their son in May 2023 with his abusive outbursts continuing until two days before she gave birth on November 8 last year.

The court heard he would manipulate Anneliese financially, asking for money for food when he actually wanted to buy drugs and alcohol.

He told her to kill herself while carrying their unborn child and called her ‘worthless’, ‘overweight’ and ‘fat’ after she gave birth, telling her to ‘get to the gym’.

He was arrested on December 1, days after the incident when he squeezed the scar at her home in Romsey on November 28, when one of her friends reported his abuse to the police.

But the court heard he continued to contact her, ignoring his bail conditions – something he denied doing.

Worster pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm, criminal damage, two counts of assault by beating and two counts of common assault.

At his sentencing, Judge Robert Hill, Assistant Judge Advocate General, branded him an “out and out bully who gets violent”.

He was given another suspended sentence: 15-months, suspended for two years, and also handed a six-month restraining order.

But, Anneliese said: “I am just a bit disappointed that it is another suspended sentence. I thought where he had been convicted before it would be maybe a bit worse for him.

These “people” add nothing positive to our society. They can neither create such a society nor even maintain one created by others; indeed, they cannot even live as parasites (predators and/or scavengers) in a civilized society without degrading it and dragging it down into the mire, into the swamp.

“Two-tier” Keir has already “taken the knee” (kow-towed to) the black or non-white mob, along with thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner. The aforesaid mob therefore have no respect either for Starmer (understandably) or for our society; they know they will usually be given a free pass.

I know what I think should be done about this “Labour”-label government but, because Britain is rapidly becoming a multikulti police state, I cannot say so expressly on the blog.

We know what England, especially but not exclusively London, is now like. What will it be like in 2034 or 2044, if a proper social-national government cannot take the reins of supreme power?

Three guesses…I can only presume that the question is rhetorical…

Ironic that a [person posing as] Prime Minister, “Two-tier” Keir, who has a huge Commons majority, is no more fitted for his rank than were his predecessors: the little Indian money-juggler Sunak, Liz Truss, “Boris”-idiot or Theresa May.

So the question devolves to “how can we get rid of him?“…

I don’t normally link to @UKLabour pages, but really everyone needs to read Keir Starmer’s speech to appreciate its scary mix of authoritarianism and vacuousness.

He has nothing to say on immigration – literally nothing. And he has no understanding of how to generate growth. So he resorts to more of what Labour always do – raise taxes, borrow money, pay it out to their clients.

Things are definitely going to get worse, as Starmer admits. But it’s hard to see why they will ever get better with Labour in charge. https://labourlist.org/2024/08/keir-starmer-speech-today-full-transcript-read-time/.”

True, but Frost neglects to add that the only reason the British people are now saddled with Starmer is because the “Conservatives” proved themselves utterly useless for 14 years.

Even Starmer’s (and Rachel Reeves’) exculpa is derivative, copied from that of Cameron-Levita, Osborne and Danny Alexander 14 years ago. Does anyone remember that? All the bs about having “examined ‘the books’ and found that there is no money” etc.

Diary Blog, 17 August 2024, with thoughts about David Starkey, dissidence, free speech

[Knightsbridge, 1930s]

Saturday quiz

A poor week. I scored only the same as political journalist John Rentoul— 3/10. I knew only the answers to questions 1, 2, and 5; had I thought a bit more, I should also have recalled no. 9 and no. 10.

Talking point

As David Starkey says, Starmer is (along with others and, particularly but not exclusively, in “the party formerly known as Labour”) attempting to institute a kind of “woke” and multikulti police state.

Where I differ from Starkey is in having no faith in the idea that a different ethos of national identity can suddenly emerge or be fostered, not without a homogenous population. The UK population is going the other way, becoming ever-more heterogenous, and spinning out of control.

I also differ from Starkey in that he thinks, or hopes, that, if he or someone else puts forward a reasoned and reasonable argument, eventually people will accept the propositions put forward. The credo of the traditional or classical academic.

All very well, as far as it goes, but Mao put forward the credo of Realpolitik, that is “political power comes out of the barrel of a gun“.

Not that that I agree wholeheartedly with that Maoist quotation either. The —by any other name— “revolution” in the DDR/East Germany in 1989 was not violent. There were vast, though peaceful, demonstrations in several major DDR cities (Dresden, Leipzig etc). The Lutheran Church was part of all that.

The East German state was still arresting some dissidents even in 1989, but the heart had gone. I recall the strange feeling I had when spending a couple of days in the DDR in 1988. Like a stage set of a state rather than a real one, an impression made stronger by the seemingly almost-depopulated southern parts of East Germany through which I travelled by car. I have blogged once or twice previously about my impressions of the place(s).

As a matter of fact, the slightly contrived “revolutions” of the late 1980s in Romania, Czechoslovakia etc were mainly non-violent, as they were in the pribaltika (Baltic states). I myself saw Czechoslovakia briefly in 1988, just before it all happened, and was in Poland several times in 1988 and 1989.

In Poland, even in 1988, one got the impression that the state there was going through the motions of being a “socialist” state but that, just under the surface, the whole population, pretty much, was “dissident” in one way or another; a kind of vast, non-violent anti-socialist conspiracy of a whole people.

Even in the Soviet Union, a huge “revolution” happened over several years in the late 1980s and early 1990s, mostly though not entirely peaceful, and including (as in Romania and elsewhere) many elements of the socialist-state structure.

Starkey is or was a Conservative, politically. He seems at least slightly taken with Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick. Why? The first is a Nigerian (though born in London) and so, in my opinion, unfitted by that fact alone to be a British political leader, let alone Prime Minister. I have, also, never heard anything worthwhile from her.

As to Jenrick, I have several problems with him too. He appears to be at least partly English, but his full provenance is not in the public domain; at least, I myself have never seen it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Jenrick#Early_life_and_non-political_career.

Born 1982, qualified late as solicitor, aged 26, but was in legal practice for only about 4 years (with two of the leading American law firms, sequentially; presumably quite junior), and was then (somehow; how?) a director of Christie’s auctioneers (though only until he became an MP a few months later).

Jenrick’s provenance interests me. It also disquiets.

Jenrick, yet another member of Conservative Friends of Israel, is tied up with Jewish businessmen and property-developer sharks, and pushed for the ruination of the small park by the Palace of Westminster by the proposed construction of a hugely-ugly “holocaust” “memorial” and propaganda centre.

In addition, Jenrick ordered, as minister for immigration, murals for children of migrant-invaders to be painted over because the colourful murals might give them pleasure and comfort.

No-one, I think, could accuse me of being either pro-immigration or in favour of granting privileges to migrant-invaders, but that mean-spirited targeting of any small children of such invaders by Jenrick felt morally wrong to me.

Like Starmer, Jenrick is married to a Jewish woman and has had children with her.

Jenrick just feels wrong to me. He’s a bad apple.

As to the Starkey interview, while I can agree with much of what he says there, he is too much in the ivory tower in the end.

Ironically, for someone “cancelled” by the System for making “racist” remarks, he seems to me insufficiently so. How does he imagine this country will recover in the way that he hopes when 20% of the population is already non-European, and with another ~million coming in every year at present? Make that, conservatively, about a 2% increase annually.

It seems to me that Starkey knows in his heart that I am right (even if, as is quite likely, he has never heard of me), but fears to say so; don’t forget that he “apologized” and tried to retract after he was “cancelled”. Never pretend to apologize to either the mob or to “them” (((them))).

The video is worth watching, though.

Further talking points

Good grief.

Listen to that “muppet” (on the second video clip), one Benjamin Butterworth. Complete idiot. Complete traitor to this country’s people and their future, too. Former (?) Chairman of Young Labour (in London). Scribbled a few times for the Guardian some years ago, apparently. https://www.theguardian.com/profile/benjamin-butterworth.

Poor thinking skills. Very poor, in fact. A fanatic, but one with nothing of interest to say. Claims that “legal immigrants” (the vast majority of all immigrants) all “come into the country with a job“. A straight lie. Huge numbers enter as supposed “fiances”, “fiancees”, “spouses”, “students”, “family members”, “asylum seekers” etc; and even those supposedly entering “with a job” (on work visas) are often not bona fide at all.

I fear that much of Starmer’s strongest support comes from semi-educated and anti-British fanatics of that sort.

I rather think that GB News had that Butterworth on because they knew that he would create a kind of petty storm among the discussion panel.

Interesting to note that the msm always applauds “resistance” (including violent “resistance”) in, for example, historically, the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, Italy, Spain, and in various other parts of the world; in South America, even in contemporary North America and Europe, so long as Jews, non-whites, or sometimes Communist partisans, are doing the various forms of “protest”, but as soon as contemporary white people do the same, they must, apparently, be shut down, “cancelled”, even prosecuted and, indeed, even imprisoned. Not even because they have been violent, in fact. Look at Jez Turner, imprisoned for making a speech, Alison Chabloz, for singing satirical songs and posting cartoons; more recently, Sam Melia, for having published stickers the subject-matter of which was not even unlawful.

Remember “two-tier Keir” and thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner being photographed literally “taking the knee” (bowing down before) the fraudulent “Black Lives Matter” nonsense?

Carol Vorderman thinks that Nigel Farage is a snake-oil salesman. Well, not much argument from me on that, but wait until La Vorderman discovers the truth about Starmer, Yvette Cooper, Rachel Reeves etc…

Of course, the main reason that Farage recently distanced himself from the English protests, and especially their riotous offshoots, was because he does not want OFCOM to pressure GB News to cut off his work (and money).

Well, I certainly hear what tweeter Paul Embery is saying there, but look at the alternative— Kamala Harris, a hugely-ignorant non-white who will be but a figurehead while the “Deep State” around her, and really running the show, foments war with Russia, a war they think they can “win” but which —if it happens— will leave Europe, as well as North America and European Russia, in irradiated ruins.

Dead men walking looting.

The only question is whether Putin will simply utilize conventional military methods to push the Kiev-regime forces out of that part of the Kursk region which they have recently invaded, or whether he will do something entirely unexpected by the Western msm, such as use very powerful bombs and missiles (even tactical nuclear ones) to blast clear the whole of the occupied area. There is an outside chance that he might even launch a massive air bombardment on Kharkov or even Kiev.

Whatever the Russian response is, the Kiev-regime forces will be unable to hold the recently-invaded territory. Zelensky himself has admitted as much, though saying that Kiev “is not interested” in doing so. If that is so, why invade that territory in the first place? Clearly, as a public relations exercise to keep Western arms and money flowing in.

Meanwhile, in the Donbass region to the south, Russian forces are steadily advancing at present. About a mile per day. Not spectacular, but the Kiev-regime forces, short of —most of all— soldiers, will have no chance of regaining those areas, or of stopping the Russian advance, all the more so now that some of the better Ukrainian detachments have been re-deployed to assist with the Kursk incursion.

A simple and, in many respects, hard life. Not completely isolated, though. I see that they seem to have electricity (“Socialism means Soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country“— Lenin) , and that their milk comes from a carton rather than from their one cow.

The old lady is cooking (I think) manti [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manti_(food)] or pelmeni [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelmeni], foods quite similar inter se, and not dissimilar to ravioli.

Retired people in Russia now get a pension of about £200 a month. Not much (under Yeltsin, it was only about £25, and not always paid), but it must go quite far in a Siberian village. Milk, tea, bread, flour etc.

It occurs to me that, were the world to be hit by nuclear war, and depending on how severe that would be, people of that type might survive better than those who live, as most of us do, in Western (or Russian) cities, towns, suburbs, or partly-suburbanized countryside.

I mean by that, journalism that points out loudly and often that the Starmer-Labour regime was “elected” on the votes of only 33.7% of those who voted, i.e. a third of the actual voters, and only 20% (if that) of all eligible voters: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_Kingdom_general_election#Full_results.

Already, people who have nothing to do with “terrorism” (even taking the term at face value) are being snooped upon and sometimes raided by the police, under (some of them) their new-ish Stasi-lite grand title of “the Anti-Terror Command”. I think that even the satirical singer and entertainer Alison Chabloz was arrested by them one day, several years ago.

You still see pseudo-liberal idiots saying or tweeting that immigration is not a high priority in the UK’s list of problems to be dealt with. Think again. Immigration on this scale impacts everything, either immediately or later, and for endless years to come.

About a million a year, maybe more, and if some say it is “only” half a million “net”, does that really make much difference? So either 10 million in the next 20 years, or 20 million in the same time-period…

If you look at Twitter/X, as always very very unrepresentative, you will see people lauding the unemployed 25-y-o African “eternal student” who is the Labour Party’s bizarre choice of candidate. Frankly, that useless creature will be lucky to save his deposit; he will certainly not get more than 15% of the vote. This is between Reform UK and the Conservative Party whose candidate is invisible.

As a social-national blogger and thinker, I should prefer there to be a social-national party that I could support, even if a party not led by me. However, there is no such party in the UK at present.

In realistic terms, all that can be done at GE 2024 is to destroy one half of the main System binary, i.e. the Conservative Party, and to move the “Overton Window”, so that there is space into which social-national ideas and, then, a movement, can flow.

The best chance at present is that the “controlled opposition” Reform UK does well enough to destroy the Conservative Party, even if at the cost of a Labour “elected” (by default) dictatorship for a while.

I have a feeling that Israel-puppet Starmer’s plan to enfranchise persons of 16-17 years of age may backfire on him.

Ideologically, I do not always have time for pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby Katie Hopkins, but it has to be admitted that she is something else…Tough does not start to cover it.

I agree with her there.

Exactly. The NWO/ZOG System wants Israel-puppet Starmer as “elected” dictator. He will clamp down even more on (real) free speech (as practised on this blog), he will flood the UK with even more non-Europeans, and he will be more finance-capital friendly even than Blair, Brown, Cameron-Levita etc.

Starmer’s expected enormous Commons majority will enable the installation of a kind of “woke” tyranny. It is then that the British people will have to go beyond the usual kinds of “acceptable” opposition.

Sunak, saying that he “has been fortunate” in his life…Married, of course, to the richest Indian in India.

Sunak always reminds me of some of the contestants on shows such as The Chase, people that make me think, “you are so ******* ignorant; why are you even on a quiz show in the first place? You could not buy a correct answer“…

Sunak is a bit like that when he tries to show that he has what it takes to be Prime Minister of the UK. He plainly does not have what it takes. The little Indian money-juggler neither looks, nor thinks, nor behaves, nor speaks like a prime minister.

I happened to see a Sky News report this morning. 900 migrant-invaders have already been landed at Dover today, ferried in by the “Border Force” (border farce). All in identical orange lifejackets, all on a very large Border Force vessel, delivering them at a fast rate of knots to our shores.

900 in one single day (so far).

This is a conspiracy, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, being carried on in plain sight, right under the noses of the public and the msm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

The Conservative Party candidate in the famous Smethwick by-election had a poster saying “if you want a n****r for a neighbour, vote Labour“. 60 years on, it turns out that the second part of the sentence should have read “…vote Labour, Conservative, LibDem, or Green“.

Interesting (even if Matt Goodwin, an academic, apparently needs to brush up on the use of the apostrophe).

Good idea.

Pity those trying to restrain the vandals did not give them the bejesus of a good kicking.

Israel has created ghetto-entities (Gaza, West Bank); cutting off oil via Turkey will ghetto-ize Israel itself.

I’m lovin’ it!

According to my use of Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], that would mean a House of Commons with 444 Labour MPs (overall majority 238), LibDems 65, Reform UK 50, Cons 45, SNP 20, Plaid Cymru 4, Greens 2 (etc).

If that were to come to pass, absolutely stunning. It would mean pretty much the end of the Conservative Party, certainly the end of it as a (let alone the) natural or default party of government.

For one thing, most of those wanting selection as Conservative candidates, and MPs, are careerists. Few will be attracted by a party that has only 45 MPs.

Donors are already withdrawing from the Conservative Party. Large donors usually want, at very least, influence in return for their money. A party which has only 45 MPs and is not the governing party, not the official Opposition, but only 4th in the Commons, has little to offer, little to sell.

If Reform UK really did break through to the extent indicated, the “Overton Window” will have been not only moved but blasted aside.

Social nationalism might then really start to take off. Exciting.

I wonder whether there will be an even bigger parade than usual in Moscow today, the 105th anniversary of the October Revolution of 1917 (in reality, the Bolshevik seizure of power from the Provisional Government headed by Kerensky). The Julian calendar was in use at the time.

The war in Ukraine is now going badly. I expect attacks on Kiev-regime infrastructure behind the front lines to continue and to intensify

It may be that the main dam on the Dnieper (a major Stalin-era project of the 1930s, rebuilt in the late 1940s after having been blown up by retreating Soviet forces in 1941) will be destroyed again.

If the Russian forces were to try to destroy the dam today, they would probably use a tactical nuclear weapon. The last photograph shows clearly how massive is the structure.

The fact that msm “journalist”-scribblers have almost all swallowed the “Jack Monroe” “legend” whole, completely uncritically, and without bothering to dig a bit to see whether some or all of it might be untrue, says a lot about the state of the UK mass media today.

I was very much in favour of the “Bootstrap Cook” at first, years ago, but less so later, and now think that she has many serious questions to answer.

The fact that so many mainstream journalistic and “media folk” idiots seem to be actually emotionally invested in supporting her on Twitter makes me even more suspicious (I think that that the mugs who are actually still donating money to her monthly are probably a different set of mugs, for the most part; some seem to be real poor people, living on small State benefits, judging by those who have been saying on Twitter etc that “Jack Monroe” has not supplied the goods that she said she would supply).

I have no idea whether “Jack Monroe” (her name was changed by deed poll from the original Melissa Hadjicostas, she being half Greek-Cypriot) makes £3,000 a month, £8,000 or —as some on Twitter etc claim— about £16,000 a month, but her Patreon donation page alone (at exact time of writing today) shows 663 “patrons”, down from well over 800 a few months ago but still impressive. The lowest level of support is £3.50 per month.

663 x £3.50 = £2,320.50. Not a bad “little earner”, even at that level, to use the estuarine Essex argot.

The highest shown level of support (it was £44 per month until recently!) is now £10 per month. 663 x £10 = £6,630 per month.

It seems reasonable to conclude, therefore, that “Jack Monroe” is getting between £2,320 and £6,630 in cash, monthly, from Patreon alone (minus whatever fees or commissions are charged by the website).

Taxfree too, unless I am mistaken as to whether such donations are counted by HMRC as gifts or not.

The “Bootstrap Cook” also makes money from personal appearances, speaking engagements, TV appearances and, of course, book royalties from her 7 books, most if not all of which are still in print. From what I have read, at least £90,000 (in toto) in royalties over the past several years, and still rolling in.

One could say, “well, so what? She has the right to make money“, but if there are questions around the veracity of what she has said about her own life-story, if there are questions around her asking for money constantly, if there are questions about where monies have disappeared (if indeed they have) and if some of those monies were given by members of the public to be sent to charities, then the questions demand an answer.

For example, in May 2022, Jack Monroe was supposed to be intending to sue both Lee Anderson MP and the “controlled opposition” politico, Martin Daubney, in defamation. Monies were crowdfunded for that purpose, but so far (six months later) no writ has been issued, as far as I know. In fact, none of the usual pre-trial and pre-issue correspondence has occurred, as Lee Anderson said only last week.

I begin to wonder whether the Fraud Squad or similar should take an interest in all this. At least that might straighten out the facts.

Cuba before Castro

Cuba looks better in that film than it is today, literally falling to pieces (houses in Havana collapsing after 63 years without maintenance, and the railways scarcely rolling).

There were a few positive aspects to Castro-ite socialism, but not many.

Another factor is that the Cuba of today has relatively fewer white and mestizo people as against blacks. Many went to the wall after 1959, and many others fled to the USA, the Dominican Republic etc.

Look at this prize idiot (below)! One “Natalie”, defending the “Bootstrap Cook” even though she then admits that she knows nothing at all about the allegations against “Jack Monroe”, or the questions raised:

That was the end of the exchange(s). Thick “Natalie” goes away without a parting word. I wonder whether she is now less ignorant.

Twitter, the home of many proudly ignorant, but absolutely sure of their politically-correct rectitude.

F.E. Smith once replied to a judge, who had said that he had listened to Counsel for an hour and was “none the wiser“, “No, my Lord, but you are much better informed“…

What strikes me about the above is not only how gullible people can be but also how defensive, once their minds have accepted, uncritically, a certain narrative, a narrative about which they know absolutely nothing.

Not only the alleged quasi-fraud by “Bootstrap Cook”, but other narratives— “Covid”, Covid “vaccines”, “Ukraine”, the 2010-2020 “need” for “austerity” (spending cuts) in the UK; above all, the whole “holocaust” farrago, especially not but exclusively the “gas chambers” nonsense.

When I returned from Rhodesia in 1977, I took a number of easy-to-get (in those days) short-term jobs. One was hauling around sacks of mail at the Royal Mail sorting office at Redhill, Surrey. Another worker was an older fellow, doing a few months before Christmas, and who had spent his long naval career in submarines. We were talking one day, amid the sacks of mail, about Atlantis. He said that he was sure that there had never been Atlantis, or an Atlantean civilization, because he had spent months, indeed years, on submarines submerged in the Atlantic Ocean, and had never seen anything!

What could one say to such an unthinking person? Ask how many portholes his submarine had?! Make the point that any remains not destroyed by 10,000+ years of tides, currents, and the pressure of water etc, would probably not be detectable by such as sonar?

Pointless to argue with some people, because you are arguing with facts (using the intellect), whereas the “Natalies” of this world have an emotional response based purely on an embedded belief itself based on what others have sown in the uncritical field of their minds.

If two scribblers for the Irish Daily Mail (someone called Tom Doorley —apparently a restaurant critic— and one Phillips, a reporter or other “journalist”) yesterday reacted quite as unthinkingly in defence of “Bootstrap Cook”, then what can be expected of “Natalie”? In fact, said scribblers were far more rude, and no more intelligent, in their response to a tweeter tweeting about “Jack Monroe”, than “Natalie”.

I suppose that “Jack Monroe” will be fairly sanguine about the Twitter-storm around her behaviour. After all, so far 600+ people are still each shoving £3.50-£10 her way every single month, most of the public will be unaware of the questions raised about her, and the major msm outlets (Observer etc) are still puffing her entirely uncritically.

Well, let’s see…non-white UK Prime Minister arranges with other non-white “leaders” (globalist puppets) that the British people should pay for the corruption and incompetence of non-white “states”. What is wrong with that? Oh, no, wait…

It is not often that I agree with Dan Hodges, but strange times [etc]…

Interesting that most British people chose countries with a mainly British ethnic base; even the USA does have that to some extent, and of course a common language as well.

As for myself, it would depend, at least to a major extent, on the position I would be in. Emperor or slave? Poet or peasant? I would not want to live in an area without trees, either.

Both opinion polls show a slight swing back to equilibrium after the recent polls showing Con below 20%. Still, 27% or 29% is still low, and there are said to be spending cuts, and restrictions on pay and benefits, to come, which must impact what little popularity the Con Party has. The continuing cross-Channel migration invasion as well.

According to Electoral Calculus, the present state of play might result in an overall Lab majority of about 154 seats: https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html; Con Party with about 150 seats, Lab around 400.
