Take away Zelensky’s ricebowl.
Russia cannot “lose” this war, whatever happens (unless there is a palace revolution in the Kremlin).
The best solution is for Russia to retain Crimea, take all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and also retain or take all of the coastal regions of the Black Sea and Sea of Azov to a depth of (arguende) 50 miles, including the city of Odessa. Kiev can either be taken by Russia or operated as a condominium, or maybe as a “free city” not fully controlled either by Russia or by a rump Ukrainian regime based (probably) in Lvov.

“One in 12 people in Germany shares a right-wing extremist worldview, according to a new study published on Thursday.
The research by Friedrich Ebert Foundation has found that the number of people with far-right views has significantly increased in the past two years, and has exceeded 8%.
In the foundation’s 2020/2021 survey, less than 2% of the respondents had clearly expressed support for right-wing extremist views.
Researchers said the consequences of the Russia-Ukraine war, skyrocketing energy prices, and high inflation are creating challenges for the democratic parties in the center, and strengthening the far-right.
“Insecurities and conflicts over who gets what and how much, are providing a gateway for right-wing extremist ideologies and anti-democratic attitudes,” the researchers said in a summary of their report.
According to the survey, trust in the institutions and in the functioning of democracy in Germany has fallen to below 60%.
The number of those who see themselves more to the right of the democratic center has significantly increased, from 9% to 15.5%.
More than 16% of those surveyed approved xenophobic statements, while 5.7% expressed antisemitic views. Some 4% played down crimes committed by Hitler and praised Nazi ideology or policies.”
In 1928, the NSDAP was voted for by only 2.6% of German voters nationally. By 1932, that had grown to over 33%, and by 1933 to nearly 44%. With God, all things are possible.
At present, there is no suitable party or leader known to the people (the same is true in the UK), but “cometh the hour, cometh the man“…

Of course, the hell of this sort of situation is that one is forced to defend, by default, persons for whom one has no liking —or even interest— in general, such as Russell Brand.

This is clearly an orchestrated attack. The coward censor, Caroline Dinenage, should be more worried about the way she left her Navy ex-husband after 10 years of marriage and 2 kids, or the way her new husband left the mother of his daughter when the baby was 4 months old.
Interesting. Having never taken any interest in Caroline Dinenage, I had no idea that she was that kind of slut. Still, who knows the ins and out of such situations, which would usually be considered part of a politician’s purely personal life, and not usually a matter for public discussion. Things happen, as they say…
In the interests of fairness, I should add that at least she belongs to Conservatives Against Foxhunting.
Interestingly, Caroline Dineage’s present husband, Mark Lancaster, a former Conservative Party MP who, despite his own apparently-bad behaviour, now sits in the House of Lords as Baron Lancaster of Kimbolton, was 2-i-c of the “dark arts” 77th Brigade for two years (2018-2020), and carried the rank of Colonel.
Lancaster, who was a mere 2nd Lieutenant when serving for 2 years in the regular Army (Royal Engineers, 1988-1990), afterwards achieved regular seniority in the TA (now, the Reserves), and completed three tours of active service overseas. He is now Director, Reserves, and carries the rank of Major-General.
[Mark Lancaster, Baron Lancaster of Kimbolton, photographed wearing uniform bearing the insignia of a Lieutenant-Colonel of the British Army]
So we have Caroline Dinenage who is Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport, and then her husband, a Conservative life peer who was second-in-command of 77th Brigade and its interference with Internet information and/or disinformation.
Then we have the “cancellation” of the admittedly unpleasant Russell Brand who, however, has apparently been on a socio-political journey placing him in opposition to the “dark powers” who have such influence in our society.
In relation to the “cancellation” of the Russell Brand character, and the letters and emails sent by Caroline Dinenage, that is all rather relevant, nicht wahr? I wonder whether I am the first person to have spotted the linkage.

I happened to see a 10-minute report from BBC Newsnight about the protests in Wales and elsewhere around the migration invasion and, especially, protests caused by the commandeering of hotels to house the migrant-invaders.
What can one say? A rehash, pretty much, of all the similar dog***t TV reports on the so-called “far right” that I have ever seen, going right back to the mid-1970s. The only difference was the cross-Channel boat invasion aspect. In the past, we had an effective Navy, Coastguard, and police force (and courts), and were not being quite literally invaded by hundreds each day in small boats.
As always with such dull repetitive reports on TV, the assumption from the start is that anyone who wants to stop the migration-invasion is bad through and through, and the TV drone “reporting” (always) rubs that in with suggestions that (“ooh!“) some people actually think that Adolf Hitler was in many ways a positive influence, and that (“ooh!“) it might have been a good idea had the Second World War never happened. And so on.
Another aspect of Newsnight’s “report” which has been part of pretty much every similar TV show I have seen from 1975 to the present is the “honest local person” who has legitimate (minor) grievances (ie that could, it is implied, be dealt with by better admin etc) about matters such as migrant-invaders being housed in local hotels. Such “honest locals” invariably (as in the Newsnight report) decry any “far right” “infiltration” into their local protests.
This is what the Soviet Press and TV used to do. By all means protest (quietly) locally, and ask the Government to do things better, but do not question the whole policy, or the agenda behind it. In this case, yes, by all means protest about your local hotel being taken over, but do not say that the migration-invasion should be stopped, and do not protest about the black-brown migrant-invaders on a national or racial basis, and do not ask what is the agenda behind the migration-invasion (the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, in this case).
In the Newsnight report, there were two approved “honest locals” in two places, one an exhibitionistic fat woman who is, apparently, a local councillor in the Wigan area. She deplored the way “her” protest was “infiltrated” (ie outnumbered) by Patriotic Alternative and other protesters.
Needless to say, the views of the Patriotic Alternative and other people were only given briefly, and in such a way that they could be trashed.
There were two (if you like) “expert witnesses” as well: fat cat “Conservative” truffle-snuffler Tim Loughton (a noted expenses freeloader: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Loughton), who thought that the people who had to be, as he put it, “guarded against” were not the migrant-invaders but the “far right”…
The other “expert” was the egregious Neil Basu, a mixed-race ex-policeman whose chosen role (apart from expostulating about “racism”) is that of “counter-terrorism” etc. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Basu.
Basu seemed to be saying that anyone alive to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, or who wants an end to the migration-invasion (which must surely destroy our society within one or two generations) is a “terrorist“.

I’ve never been able to grasp what Britain’s interest is in sustaining a costly and risky war in South-East Europe between two corrupt and ill-governed hunks of the old Soviet Empire. A lot of US Republicans, not just the ghastly Trump, are also doubtful about the point of it.
Then there are recent reports of growing friction between Ukraine and Poland‘s government. I’m surprised this has not happened before, given the fairly recent (80 years ago) violent history between the two neighbouring peoples, in an area where events 500 years ago can still stir up bitter enmities.
And there is the current scandal of alleged corruption in Ukrainian military recruiting offices. This is no shock to anyone, as you can barely breathe in Ukraine without encountering corruption. But the point is that it suggests people in quite large numbers are paying to avoid fighting.
At the same time a lot of men of military age, banned by law from leaving Ukraine at the moment, are being caught trying to slip across the frontier with Romania. Which suggests that quite a few are getting through, and that this is a major difficulty for a country which has suffered terrible military casualties.
Honestly, if this war had not been so widely portrayed in crude storybook terms as a super-simple fight between total good and total evil, which it isn’t, we might have reached this stage before. But better late than never.“
[Peter Hitchens in the Daily Mail]
I recall a discussion with some late middle-aged Poles in the snowy Polish winter of 1988; a week or two before Christmas. All three (a husband and wife, and the brother of that woman) had lived through the tumultuous events of the mid-20th Century in that part of the world. The brother had been captured with other Polish Army recruits, then deported by Soviet authorities to Vorkuta, where he spent several years but survived [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorkuta].
That family had originally lived in or near Lvov (now a major city in Ukraine) but had been displaced. They however were adamant that they were Poles, and never Ukrainians. They seemed rather hostile to Ukrainians, in fact. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lviv#Interwar_period.
Since the Russian invasion of 2022, there has been a warmer Poland-Ukraine relation on the official level, but it cannot be said how long that will last; it may be fraying.
“A child-snatcher has been jailed for attempting to abduct a three-year-old boy from Aldi – but was thwarted by the toddler’s seven-year-old brother.
Sergejus Paskevicius, 60, from Heywood in Rochdale, was arrested and charged for child abduction in July last year.
He was jailed for three years and two months at Manchester Crown Court (Minshull St).“
On the face of it, that sentence seems exceptionally lenient, albeit that there may be mitigating facts not given in the newspaper report. The defendant will be out in about 18 months.

Worth listening to, though for me it is clear that the Earth is reaching, perhaps has already reached “peak population” (especially as far as the non-European —i.e. non-white— populations are concerned).
One sees much discussion online as to what is “Marxism” or “Communism” (or “Socialism”), and as to whether the new emerging totalitarianism in the West is “Marxist” or not. Many (of varying viewpoints) question the equivalence, looking at what is aimed at, and what are the policies espoused.
In fact, much of that debate is too theoretical. When you look at things from a practical perspective, the similarities are far more apparent. Look at a few of those.
In the Soviet social system, an extension of the ideals of the French Revolution was preached: liberty, equality, fraternity. Needless to say, those ideals were more honoured in the breach than in the observance. Even before Stalin took full power, a whole system of special rations, special pay, special healthcare and (in reality) education began to be implemented for the favoured parts of the population, especially the Nomenklatura.
Those favoured lived very different lives compared to the rest, all delineated by reference to rank and favour. Spacious apartments instead of shared and/or cramped houses and flats, healthcare in special hospitals (the best being the so-called “Kremlin Clinic” in outer Moscow) rather than standard Soviet hospitals, and a graduated set of special food outlets (usually not even open to the general public), in which could be bought items rarely or never generally available (caviar, smoked salmon, imported foods, imported kitchen equipment), and so on.
At the higher levels, the nomenklatura travelled “soft class” rather than hard, could get internal air tickets when they were hard to get for the base population, and had cars for local and regional transport (even in the 1980s, a black person in South Africa had a greater chance of buying a car than a Soviet citizen).
At the very highest levels, this “class division” of travel reached staggering inequality. The top brass would travel by “private” rail car or aircraft. When Sakharov was told to relocate in order to help with the Soviet atom bomb and hydrogen bomb projects, he travelled in a rail car which had a bedroom for himself and his wife, a sitting room, a dining room, accommodation for guards and other staff, a staffed kitchen, and an observation deck. This railcar was tacked onto an ordinary train.
The disparity even extended to communications, the nomenklatura above a certain level communicating among themselves by means of a special system of reliable and secure telephones. This was the vertushka, or vertushki (there were several levels of service, all self-standing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertushka).
Now look at the rulers and beneficiaries of the Western system today. The lifestyle disparity between the favoured few and the rest came out all the more strongly during the “Covid” “scamdemic”/”panicdemic”.
At meetings of the G7 or G20 heads of government in 2020-2022, the top attendees went around unmasked, shaking hands, kissing the ladies who were governmental leaders or their wives. Meanwhile, right next to them, were the waiters, waitresses, bodyguards etc, all masked! Almost an insult, really, a finger put up to the sheep watching on TV or reading the newspapers.
Indeed, the same is true in terms of travel. Ordinary people were banned from travel, or allowed to travel only on sufferance and after complying with Kafka-esque conditions, but the wealthy few and the governmental leaders continued buzzing around on private jets, and in reality subject to few restrictions.
We see the hypocrisy even now. The Harry Formerly Known as Prince, with Meghan Mulatta, making several transcontinental journeys per month using large private jets, often in order to speak about how the travel of the bulk of the population must be restricted or banned.
Not just Harry and the Mulatta; look at, say, Bill Gates, Emma Thompson and the rest. All travelling on hugely polluting private jets, helicopters, superyachts etc and at the same time lecturing the rest of the population about how they must accept ever-declining living standards…
In fact, that wealthy and ultra-wealthy stratum already live lives very different from the main population. In the UK, for example. Private jets for overseas travel. Helicopters for intra-UK or short-distance European travel. If cars need be used, that would usually be for short-ish distances, and the vehicles will be those that insulate the occupants from the outside. Range-Rovers, Rolls-Royce etc.
Needless to say, the wealthy rarely if ever require the NHS. Private healthcare only. As for security, the police are only needed as a backup for those in staffed country houses or London penthouses etc. Private security, maybe even bodyguards.
One could continue, but you see the point. This is a matter of the exercise of power, as well as that of privilege. The discussion “socialism” v. “capitalism” is largely sterile.
Everywhere you look now, you see the masks coming off: “15-minute cities”, 20 mph speedlimits, ULEZ, “social credit” ideas, the banning of most cars (in the medium-term and even short-term), the threat of further faked biosecurity “health” measures such as the facemask nonsense, “lockdowns” etc like a Sword of Damocles waiting to fall.
Add to that the black-brown migration-invasion and the obvious implementation across Europe of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.
The black-brown hordes coming to Europe and including the UK are almost all coming from relatively poor living conditions in their home countries. For them, it does not matter that the NHS is failing, that the roads are falling to pieces, that pay and State benefits are low, that the police forces scarcely work, that the justice system is disintegrating etc. Why? Because all that is still far better than where they come from.
I am glad to see that a large part of the British population is at least becoming aware of the outline of what is happening.
“Welsh people have started fighting back against the country’s new 20mph speed limit by painting over newly-erected road signs for the newly-restricted zones.
Furious locals spray painted over signs for the 20mph limit after Wales’s new rules came into force today as lorry drivers also vowed to show their opposition by driving at 19mph.
Photos show furious drivers have now started fighting back against the scheme by vandalising the newly-erected speed limit signs themselves. Drivers taking to the road were also left confused as many local authorities failed to put up the new signs ahead of the 20mph limit coming into force.
Some drivers said they were ‘scared’ to go out in case of being trapped by police, static cameras and mobile speed vans, with one elderly couple having cancelled their trip to Aberystwyth to visit family due to their fear of getting a £100 fine.“
Interesting. Not a new idea (it goes back a hundred years) but it looks as if it will not be long before robot domestics will really be part of everyday life.

.@Keir_Starmer tells @SkyNews his Net Zero targets "will lead to lower bills because renewables are much cheaper than fossil fuels…There's nobody that quarrels with the idea that if you get to clean power & renewables, the price of energy goes down"
Almost everyone knows that Keir Starmer would —and probably will— be an appallingly-bad Prime Minister, but after (to take some of the most recent and most obvious) David Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and now the Indian money-juggler, Sunak, I am not sure that many people really care.
The present Government is dying in an atmosphere of total public derision at its incompetence and pointlessness. Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer is almost a nullity, dull as ditchwater and disbelieved on all sides, but the 2024 General Election is his to lose after 13 years of pseudo-Conservative misgovernment.
Having said that, if the Government pledges to keep the Triple Lock on the State Pension, and if it uprates the same before the 2024 Election, that may help to keep on board the pensioner vote which is most of the hard core Conservative vote. Then it will be a question of whether any other groups will vote Con (if only negatively, i.e. to keep out Lab).

So the “Conservative” Party has now alienated the” “young” generally (maybe 90% of those under 30), the working families, the unemployed, most voters under 60, both those who support “refugees” incoming and also those who do not want more migrant-invaders, those renting properties because unable to buy, those wanting clean rivers and other environmental improvements, and now those who are sick and/or disabled and who are not already anti-Con.
Many, perhaps most, of those getting disability benefits are over 60, i.e. the only demographic until recently still supporting the Conservative Party.
The trend of things electoral seems to be that the hard core of Conservative Party support for the expected 2024 General Election will be persons over 60 who 1. have no opinion either way about the migration invasion, who 2. are homeowners without any mortgage obligation, who 3. are not short of money, 4. who do not receive any State benefits at all (beyond the State Pension itself), and 5. who do not object to a government (at Cabinet level) largely composed of non-whites.
There is at least a possibility that Sunak will suspend the Triple Lock on State pensions, as he did when Chancellor. As I predicted on the blog at the time, that first decision cut away the bedrock of pensioner electoral support for (and trust in) the Conservative Party; the fall in Con Party fortunes dates from that time a couple of years ago.
I begin to think that Sunak will be lucky to keep even 20% of the popular vote, though I still see Labour as not offering anything much to the British people (and, after all, Starmer’s policies are not, in reality, going to be much different to those of Sunak).
I should think that, despite the fact that the Sunak government is doomed, the next election in terms of seats will be decided by many voters making their decision in the final days of the campaign.

It is a notorious fact that armies and states often prepare to fight the last war, the war already fought. In 1939, Poland collapsed within 5 weeks after powerful German forces invaded from the west, indeed from west, north, and south simultaneously on and after 1 September 1939.
The Polish forces were hopelessly outmanouvered and outgunnned. They withdrew to the southeast, only to be outplayed when Soviet forces invaded from the easterly direction on 17 September 1939. Faced with attacks from all sides, the Poles had no choice but to surrender de facto by 6 October 1939, though there never was a formal surrender.
Notoriously, the Poles, in one famous engagement, made a hopeless cavalry charge against the latest German tanks. The Germans were fighting (as it turned out) the Second World War, whereas the Poles were using the tactics not even of the First World War but of the 19th Century.
Scrolling on to 2023, we see the Polish Army more powerful than it has been for centuries, but its strength lies in armour, and in numbers. Second World War strengths. The Russians may or may not be able to equal that, not without general mobilization, but Russia also has well over 6,000 nuclear weapons of various kinds, mostly missiles. Nuclear missiles (etc) against tanks?
The old Soviet Union also had “suitcase bombs”, capable of destroying city centres to a diameter of perhaps two miles. Does Russia have a similar programme now? I do not know, but would not bet against it.
What is disturbing at present is that, even more than in 1939, the war drums are beating far louder than the plaintive cries for peace.
Not just in Poland and Ukraine, but across the world, especially in the USA and UK, and in the EU.
The EU is in big trouble as Poland calls referendum on illegal immigration for October. The ref seeks to defeat the EU's plan to force EU nations to take illegal immigrants against their will. The EU will lose badly. When can Brits have the same vote? https://t.co/DjI2AfpQHL
It is a warning, “a shot across the bow”. The fastest, most advanced Russian missiles, with nuclear warheads, cannot be intercepted at present. Stop fuelling the Kiev regime, stop getting entangled in war with Russia.

“A martial arts enthusiast has been found guilty of stabbing his partner to death at their home and then holding a friend captive and driving through a police cordon.
Jason Bell, 42, attacked Nicole Hurley, 37, with at least two knives at their home in Primrose Hill, north-west London in October 2021. Afterwards, Bell turned up at the house of a friend with a large army-style knife and accused him of sleeping with Hurley.”

“Partner“? Looking at the two photographs, one has to ask “why?“, or “what was she thinking?“…
The full report is misleading in respect of one of the locations. It seems that the friend lived not in “Maida Vale”, as claimed, but in Kilburn, a couple of miles to the north of where I myself used to live in Little Venice. Even the estate agencies, which have invented a non-area called “North Maida Vale”, would be hard put to claim the location of the murder as having been in any sort of Maida Vale; not even “borders of”, I should think.
Terrible. Life in most places outside London is hard without a car. I have a car now, but when I lived in New Jersey in the early 1990s, I did not drive or own a car (my American first wife had one, though).
Getting into Manhattan by express (non-stop) bus was fairly good and only took about 50 minutes once on board, but to travel crossways, either eastward to the Jersey Shore, or westward to nearby settlements such as South River, was almost impossible, and involved a longish walk and then a ride on the one very occasional local bus, the M15 (I always called it the “MI5”).
Very inconvenient, and that is more or less what is now being inflicted on many rural dwellers in England.

Look at the fundamentals: Russia is still a functioning and indeed flourishing state in most respects. It has an oil and gas sector exporting around the world, other mineral exports, a state income which is huge, and an army which, despite problems, can still fulfil its tasks. Then there are the 6,000+ nuclear weapons. Russia’s domestic economy continues to work normally. Russia has huge potential reserves of both manpower and armaments.
Contrast Kiev-regime Ukraine: 10%+ of its former territories occupied and/or broken away; a population whose very low birth-rate (insufficient to replace losses via deaths) is one factor, another being the 20% of the pre-2022 population now living beyond Ukrainian borders. The country cannot export by sea, its industry is at a near-standstill, and its shambolic and tyrannical Jew-Zionist government cannot replace the 350,000 soldiers killed or hors de combat. It is now having to use press-gangs. Only foreign aid is keeping the war going, the army supplied with arms and ammunition, and the civilian population supplied with money.

There is now no need to trigger another huge war in Europe by arming, and funnelling ammunition and money etc, to the corrupt, brutal, shambolic Kiev regime.

“Erasure” of Jews? Ha ha.
Oh well, people can dream, I suppose…
In reality, though, whether in TV, on radio, in films, in newspapers, in fact in the msm generally, indeed in UK, US, French (etc) society in general, you can hardly get away from “them”. “They” have certainly not been “erased”, and there is no “erasure” happening, at least that I can see. Au contraire.
Baddiel does not object to Jews or blacks playing non-Jew and non-black roles, including roles of people who actually existed (even Anne Boleyn was played by a black American woman not so long ago, absurdly), but he does object to Jews being played by non-Jews, so long as the said Jews are —rightly or wrongly— considered to be positive characters.
Presumably, Baddiel does not want Jewish theatricals confined to playing Jewish roles.
“They” always want things their way.
As a matter of fact, I have never seen the creators of atomic weapons (almost all of which, in the 1940s and 1950s, were Jews) as being very positive, especially in view of the fact that they wanted to use the weapons not only on Japan but also in Europe, and especially on Germany. That was the original target. Thank God Europe dodged at least that bullet.
Atomic science in the 1940s, 1950s was largely, though not entirely, a preserve of Jews, starting of course, with Einstein.
The benefits of [atomic science] in practice are far outweighed by the negative aspects.
Would it not have been better had [atomic science in practice] never existed? Would it not be better if [atomic energy and weapons] did not exist, or were, in the future, somehow eliminated?

“Without banking services, political parties cannot operate“. Indeed, but why does Golding think this is happening? Precisely so that one cabal, or connected cabals, can rule over the UK (and beyond) without much political opposition of any kind. These are initial, tentative experiments in control (just like the “lockdowns” the facemask nonsense etc). To use the usual phrase, “first they came for...”, in this case, Patriotic Alternative.

What a massive hypocrite Toby Young is. He never said a word when I was wrongfully and indeed unlawfully disbarred in 2016, or in relation to any of the false and malicious complaints made to Twitter, online fora and even police about me (made, in every single case, by Jews). One of those matters is still ongoing, in fact, I having been (some time ago and quite wrongly) charged under the notorious “bad law” of Communications Act 2003, s.127. That case will not come to trial (if at all) until Autumn 2023.
In fact, that much-abused law (mostly, in the political realm, abused by Jews engaging in “lawfare”) is set to be either repealed, or at any rate superseded, next year. It may well be that I shall be that last person tried under its poorly-drafted provisions.
Reverting to Toby Young’s hypocrisy, he and his so-called “Free Speech Union” also never said a word in defence of others who have been persecuted and/or prosecuted by Jewish interests: Jez Turner, Alison Chabloz, and many others.

She admitted to doing that a decade ago, in fact.
I notice, also, that the large commercial and other organizations that used to cite “Jack Monroe” in tweets and other publicity, now do not. As a public figure, she has almost certainly reached the end of the line.

Thinking about the desperate attempts by the Kiev regime to recruit (press into service) anyone they can leads me on to thoughts of the demographic future of Ukraine.
Even before the war, the population of Ukraine was in decline, mainly because of the past 30+ years of corrupt, shambolic “independence” as well as, pre-“Independence”, decades of Brezhnevite stagnation when Ukraine was a constituent part of the Soviet Union.
Now, huge numbers of, mainly, young and youngish men have been killed, many others badly wounded. Hundreds of thousands in all. Many Ukrainian women, at the same time, have taken the chance to settle in other parts of Europe. Most men are barred from leaving. The birth-rate in Ukraine must already have declined even further. This is a state without a future.

A woman once asked me, about 40 years ago, whether I felt in any personal way “betrayed” by Kim Philby. Obviously not. Philby was born in 1912, 44 years before me, I never knew him or, as far as I know, anyone who knew him (excepting that I once or twice had lunch in the 1990s with an ex-KGB officer turned businessman, “Ed”, who had once heard a lecture by him at the Lubyanka) and, last but not least, I have never been an officer or agent of SIS (or any other intelligence or security agency).
However, the woman’s question missed the point. Philby betrayed his Service, and colleagues, but also the State. The crime was against the State, just as is the case, fundamentally, with almost any crime.
It is immaterial that I myself have never been mug enough to waste money sending funds to “Jack Monroe” so that she can snort it up her snout or guzzle it down her throat. I am offended by her defrauding of genuinely poor people, and her abuse of them and their plight so that she can present a fake image to the public and make plenty of money out of virtue-signalling mugs, an enterprise in which she has been aided and abetted by the hand-wringing part of the affluent middle classes (Guardian and Observer scribblers and readers, book-festival organisers, TV producers and other parasites).
Ah. I was wondering whether tweeter “Neil Marsden” (joined Twitter July 2023, only 4 “followers”) is yet another “Jack Monroe” “sock account”. Probably.

I see that the “BBC presenter” story is still rolling. A couple of things strike me about the story and also about the reaction to it.
Firstly, the sheer hysteria. It seems that the girl involved was 17 at the time, assuming that there is any substance to the story. It is one of the oddities of the English law at present (as I understand it— I admit to being not very au fait with it now, having not practised at the Bar since 2008) that the unnamed BBC presenter could actually have had full sexual relations with the girl (or any girl of 17, or indeed 16) without being in peril of the law, yet if he paid for nude photographs of her (even though she may have taken them herself, and willingly) he might actually be at risk of imprisonment: see https://www.theguardian.com/media/2023/jul/09/bbc-presenter-accused-of-paying-teenager-for-photos-could-face-jail-term-if-guilty.
To my mind, this makes a mockery of the law. The “photographs” law should surely be in line with the law on sexual relations, and so the age reduced to 16 years.
I am unsure about whether a “photographs” law of that kind was or is necessary at all, or if it is, whether the relevant age should be 16 or lower, as with some provisions of, eg, the Offences Against the Person Act 1861 and the Sexual Offences Act 1956.
The Protection of Children Act 1978, the present “photographs” law, does not (as far as I know) specify an age, but refers only to “children“.
This was never the kind of law I did when at the Bar, so I may be out of my depth on the detail here but, to my mind, that 1978 “photographs” law (which I have never read in full) seems to be on the face of it yet another badly-drafted law of the past half-century. There are several others, including the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 and the Communications Act 2003, s. 127. Both of those have been superseded or are about to be superseded by newer laws.
I find it strange that the 1978 “photographs” law was thought to be necessary at all. It was brought in 20 years before the Internet was widely available for public use and, after all, photography itself has been around for about 200 years if you include its earlier modern manifestations such as the daguerrotype. Photographs as such have certainly existed since the 1860s, yet only in 1978 did Parliament consider that such a penal law was desirable, or at all necessary. Very odd.
Leaving all that aside, there seems to be a strange dissonance now— UK and general Western society almost eliminating real childhood and/or childhood “innocence”, and yet going mad if someone, especially anyone famous (such as George Osborne), has sexual relations, even if completely lawfully (in Osborne’s case, that is disputed), with a teenage girl of 16 or 17, or if such a person (as alleged of the unnamed BBC presenter) pays a girl of 16 or 17 for some risque photographs.
Well, there it is. To my mind, this “BBC presenter” story is a bit of a storm in a teacup anyway, looking at the challenges our country and society face at present. There are bigger issues.
The other aspect which I find striking about the “BBC presenter” story is that the unnamed defaulter has such a high level of income that he can, and apparently is willing to, pay out £35,000 for photographs of some girl.
The BBC gets almost all of its money from the outdated tax misleadingly called a “licence fee”. Radio licences, dog licences etc have passed into history, but the BBC licence fee marches on. Not only that, but enforced by criminal sanction. There are many people (mostly women) actually in prison because of having not had a TV licence, and then unable or unwilling to comply with the order of a court: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/tv-licence-fee-women-convictions-b1763192.html.
Out of the huge revenues thus raised, the BBC pays its staff well, often very well, and in some cases far too well. Gary Lineker, that loudmouth ignoramus, is paid a million a year to shoot the breeze about football. Alan Shearer, another ex-footballer, gets about half a million. Zoe Ball apparently gets about a million. A number are getting around £400,000. Looking at them, most are, frankly, overpaid.
Why should the public subsidize what is increasingly, “Soviet” TV and radio output, largely unwatchable and unlistenable?
My final thought about this nonsense is that George Osborne must be loving it. The notorious email about his own peccadilloes is now already all but forgotten. I suppose, though, that despite his former, though fairly brief, political prominence, Osborne is now yesterday’s news…just not very interesting to most people.
“It’s deeply worrying that many older people are ending up in hospital due to lack of the right sort of services in the community. No one wants to be in hospital but for older people all too often it can lead to an avoidable deterioration in their health,” said Caroline Abrahams, Age UK’s charity director.
Prof Adam Gordon, the president of the British Geriatrics Society, said the report “makes grim reading [and] rightly identifies that older people are currently being let down by NHS and social care services”.”
[The Guardian]
This has been a scandal (and a massive waste of money) for years, certainly since 2010 and probably long before. No care at home means more demand at hospitals. District nurses were once ubiquitous; now they seem hardly to exist at all. I was told by one, a decade ago, that she was fed up with NHS mismanagement, and so was emigrating to Australia, where she would also be paid far more.
As with so many areas of life in England, Government and Opposition talk a good game, but fail to deliver for the people.

However bad and (at best) useless Starmer-Labour will be, this “Conservative” Party misgovernment really has failed on every metric. It has to go, and I hope that almost all of its MPs will be dumped by the voters. Then a new fight will begin, against the “Labour” version of the System…

A horrible woman, and completely out of her depth when Prime Minister. I suspect part-Jewish.

Unless NATO forces join in the war (as the Zelensky cabal wants), the Kiev regime has no prospect even of recovering Donetsk and Lugansk regions, let alone Crimea.
If NATO forces were to join in the war, directly, a major conflagration would start across Central and Eastern Europe, maybe even into Western Europe. It might then go nuclear.

Everyone should have access to safe water every day – therefore, in close cooperation with the Indian government, Indian villages such as Navargoan now has access to doorstep water via our solar-based SQFlex pump.

The Jal Jeevan Mission helps to deliver doorstep water to India’s rural villages. With Grundfos’ solar-based SQFlex, the aim is to deliver at least 55 litres of water to every household. For locals, it’s no more heavy lifting or long walks for water and fewer health risks #solarpic.twitter.com/y6WwigCrMt
Many places affected by water shortage also lack access to power – why not combine the two needs into a possibility? By harnessing solar energy to power pumps, we can deliver water to people, livestock and crops almost anywhere the sun shine – see how: https://t.co/nPZzrDUjw8pic.twitter.com/Cuntexl1hR
Good to see that donations continue to trickle in. I sent “Sven Longshanks” a book via Amazon a week ago, but that delivery failed, presumably because that prison (as some others also) will not, for some reason, accept Amazon deliveries. The problem cannot have been the book itself, which was scarcely contentious in its title or content (Tacitus, Annals of the Roman Empire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annals_(Tacitus)).
“Antifa” groupie and online “grifter”, “Dr.” Louise Raw, tweeted that she had tried to complain to the crowdfunding site about the appeal for “Sven Longshanks”, and incited others to follow her lead. What a horrible and narrow little creature she is.

POLAND GAVE UKRAINE AID WORTH 3 BILLION EUROS The Prime Minister of Poland, Mateusz Morawiecki, said that his country has so far sent Ukraine military aid worth 3 billion euros
Poland is subsidized by the EU (I was there several times in the late 1980s, and remember how poor it was in its socialist and pre-EU days), so the value sent by Poland ultimately came from the taxpayers of Germany, France, Netherlands etc.

“A woman guilty of defrauding Hillingdon Council out of hundreds of thousands of pounds and using a false identity to get council housing has finally been evicted. Hillingdon Council says it is currently tackling over 100 cases of potential housing fraud as it announced the successful conviction and eviction of the long-term fraudster, who lived in an Uxbridge home for nearly 20 years.
The woman, a Bangladeshi national who’d entered the UK in 1993 on a stolen identity by using someone else’s passport claimed the house in August 2003 after presenting as homeless, Uxbridge County Court heard.“
[My London]
Multiply that (not necessarily the outright fraud but the background situation) by millions and you see where most of the “housing crisis” comes from. Maybe not the only factor, but overwhelmingly the main factor.
Every year, a million unwanted immigrants and/or migrant-invaders arrive in the UK. A couple of hundred thousand British people leave. It means that, everyday, there are about 2,200 more people in the UK by reason of mass immigration alone. Add to that births to previous immigrants.

It is pretty clear that Russia will now have to do what it should have done in the first week— conquer Kiev, eliminate the Zelensky regime, and take over all Ukrainian territory east of the Dnieper.
