Agree 💯 What you have to grasp is that most “experts” are not really interested in truth or empirical reality. They are only interested in bending evidence (surveys, polls, etc) around their pro-immigration/socially liberal priors. Trust me. I worked alongside it for 20 yrs. https://t.co/784pyT5oHo

44% of Britons now say Reform UK counts as a 'main party', up from 29% in January
Labour: 89% say is a main party (-1 from 16-17 Jan) Conservatives: 84% (-4) Lib Dems: 47% (+3) Reform UK: 44% (+15) SNP: 25% (+1) Greens: 13% (+4) pic.twitter.com/gbnD0jfV4j
In effect, though, the UKIP of 2014 is still around, having passed through two further incarnations— Brexit Party and now Reform UK.
As to the LibDems, their facade is still standing, thanks to the LibDems being the default non-Lab/non-Con alternative-choice or dustbin party, but as a party putting forward real ideas, they are almost a nullity.
Reform UK are the party Britons are most likely to say is best able to handle immigration, though 31% say no party could handle the issue well
In the end, only a real social-national party can deal with the problem. Reform, for me, is just an underwhelming way-station.
With No 10 dismissing speculation that the government would reverse course on Winter Fuel Payments, our poll shows 47% of Britons continue to support restricting WFPs to only those on pension credit or means-tested benefits
That polling may be accurate but, if it is, leaves out the important voting effects. Hardly anyone of or above State Pension age supports the “confiscation” of universal Winter Fuel Payment; very few aged 55+ support the “confiscation”. Most of those supporting Starmer-stein and Rachel Reeves in this will be under 40, perhaps even under 30.
The WFP “confiscation” will have electoral repercussions right through the present Parliament and on to the next general election. One of several factors which have already sunk fake Labour.

As frequently noted on the blog, though, immigration on such a huge scale impacts all other issues— housing, NHS, crime, tax, economy, environment, water supply, State pensions and other benefits etc.
The next general election may not be until 2029, so much ground to cover before then, but those numbers would result in a House of Commons with 310 Reform MPs (on the cusp of a working majority), 169 Lab, 72 LibDem, 36 SNP, 33 Cons (etc).
The Conservative Party, as in another poll yesterday, relegated to a pretty poor 5th place in the Commons. Among the 94 Con MPs likely to be ejected would be Mel Stride, James Cleverly, Suella Braverman, Jeremy Hunt, David Davis, Jesse Norman, Robert Jenrick, Rishi Sunak and, last but not least, Kemi Badenoch.

I was last there in 1974, I think, aged maybe 17. Having dropped out of school [https://rbcs.org.uk/], I worked for a while as temp dogsbody for an agency that sent me to various places short of workers. The one in Bracknell was at the Waitrose warehouse (next to Waitrose HQ). I was there for a couple of weeks. I used to go there daily from Caversham Heights (north-west of Reading) on my 75 cc Italian scooter (absolute top speed 60 mph, normal top speed 50).
I remember the brief experience mainly because, one fine day, two Thames Valley Police detectives from Reading wanted to interview me in the office. They did so, and fingerprinted me. Apparently, the other agency workers, who all arrived and departed by minibus, had already been interviewed. I was told that quite a lot of Waitrose canned products had gone missing.
Well, it turned out that all the agency workers except me had been “having it away” with Waitrose’s stuff. I was cleared almost immediately, I think mainly by the absence of fingerprint evidence against me, but all the others were, I was told, charged with theft. I had had no idea that they were “having it away” with tins of salmon or whatever. Naive me.
Not that I was necessarily more honest than the others (who were all much older than me, in their thirties or forties); I just had no use for whatever Waitrose products they had apparently been stealing.
Bracknell was very different then, I think, and smaller; the same is true of my old school at Sonning, looking now at its website. Pretty much only the original old house (Holme Park house) is the same; a whole large complex is now around it. New facilities, new buildings, even a new road system:

[“Parents were told – by people they thought were experts – that dire consequences would ensue if their children were not given access to puberty blockers. Stonewall told managers and employees that “transwomen” were entitled to enter women’s single-sex spaces and sports. It encouraged public and private sector organizations to “go beyond the law” in the hope that this would make gender self-ID the de facto – and eventually de jure – reality. Civil servants and officials around the country have promoted the message that trans-identifying people should be treated in accordance with their “gender identity”. Worst of all, children have been encouraged to believe it’s possible to change sex, and that they will be accepted for all purposes as the opposite sex. All these lies and misrepresentations have caused immense damage. Some of the protests have been repulsive and inexcusable. But the angry, distraught trans-identifying people we are hearing from were lied to by thousands of people who should have known better. When you’ve been living a lie, the truth is very painful.

Quite. Look at the Allison Pearson case. Oh, wasn’t she shocked when the police came to her door and questioned her about a few online comments. Yes, shocked. She put all her outrage in her next newspaper column scribblings, and the “usual suspects” in the “free speech” milieu all formed up to march behind her— Toby Young, the “Free Speech Union” he put together, the Spectator, the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail etc.
As a matter of fact, I myself think that the police behaved outrageously in that instance.
Where, though, was Allison Pearson when others suffered from similar or worse behaviour at the hands of the police and those behind the police, and indeed Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), who have wormed their way into positions of influence, sometimes having suborned those stupid “elected” Police and Crime Commissioners brought in a decade ago by David Cameron-Levita.
Much of such backstairs manipulation can be lain at the door of the very malicious Jew-Zionist org known as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, a pro-Israel pressure group (effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London) whose self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”…well, let’s just call him “Slitherman”…is not infrequently to be found broadcasting his lies and propaganda on the “usually, no-one watches” Talk TV and GB News and even, sometimes, on Sky News.
At the foot of this part of the blog can be found a few blog articles detailing some of my own experiences. First, though, let us look at Allison Pearson’s [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allison_Pearson] experience.
[“In November 2024, Pearson was visited at home by Essex Police asking her to undergo a voluntary interview after a complaint that she had incited racial hatred with a tweet posted in November 2023. During a period of scrutiny on British policing of pro-Palestinian protests during the Gaza war, Pearson had posted a photo of Greater Manchester Police officers standing besides supporters of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan‘s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party waving the party’s flag. However, despite the flag including the word “Pakistan”, she called the flagbearers “Jew haters” and misidentified the officers as Metropolitan Police officers, citing an incident where that service had not met with an Israeli-advocacy group. These errors were corrected by a Community Note and Pearson deleted the tweet.[15][16]
After the visit, Pearson wrote a Telegraph column criticising the incident and saying that the police had said it was a non-crime hate incident. Essex Police reported The Daily Telegraph to the Independent Press Standards Organisation, saying that it had body camera footage proving that they had never said it was a non-crime hate incident.[15][16]
You see from that Wikipedia article that Allison Pearson criticized people as “Jew-haters“. She herself is not Jew, or even (as far as I can see) “part-” or “crypto”. A provincial scribbler by origin, who blagged a poor 2:2 in English at university and, as “journalist”, gets most of her facts wrong.
Allison Pearson has made common cause with the “CAA” snoopers and “lawfare” abusers. She said nothing when the Jewish lobby abused law and professional regulation to have me wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred in 2016; neither did she speak up for me when I was on trial for writing this blog (on trial in late 2023, sentenced in March 2024).
The police have been at my door about 5 or 6 times since 2013, always because some Jew or other has made up a contrived complaint. See the blog articles posted below. A few telephone calls too. The last time was only about a year ago, when some policeman at the door confronted me with Twitter/X posts, which (apart from the language used, which never could have been from me) were from, I think, 2024, and I have not posted on Twitter/X since I was permanently “suspended (expelled) in 2018, when —once again— a pack of Jews combined to “complain” about me.
Seems that the police (posing as a poundland KGB or Stasi) think that I am the only Ian Millard in the world, or in the UK, or posting online. Are they really so ineffective and unthinking? No wonder (real) crime is exploding.
Allison Pearson has also never said a word supporting other victims of Jew-Zionist lawfare, such as Alison Chabloz (imprisoned for posting satirical songs and cartoons), Jez Turner of the now-defunct London Forum (imprisoned for making a short speech in Whitehall saying that Jews should be removed from the UK), or Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative (imprisoned for distributing completely lawful stickers).
The same is true of other controlled opposition types—Toby Young, the Free Speech Union, GB News, Talk TV, Farage, “Prison Planet” Watson, Matt Goodwin etc, not to forget Katie Hopkins herself…
Ms. Hopkins has never said a word in support of me (or any of those others mentioned).

Only total dummies are going to vote foe Starmer-stein’s fake Labour, but there are plenty of dummies out there, especially in the North of England where many vote Labour automatically, even today (because their great-grandfather always voted Labour…).
Leaving dummies of that sort aside, though, who will vote Labour now? Pensioners? Hardly! The young (under-30s)? Doubtful. Anyone on any State benefits? Very doubtful.
Not that Con is any sort of alternative, now that Labour is doing what the “Conservatives” used to do, and worse…
Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride wants to ditch the Triple Lock on State Pensions, so the over-60s voting “Conservative” would be turkeys voting for Christmas.
Reform is really the only game in town in the by-election, if one were to take seriously the “democratic” Schauspiel.
That wasn’t in the Labour manifesto either. More police they promised. Instead, devastating cuts in the capital.

Who is still voting for the Conservatives after 14 years in power? Has everyone memory-holed the Boriswave, highest tax burden since WW2 and the increasing crime rates that happened under their watch?
I find it hard to believe that any or many would vote Lib, Lab, or Con after the past 15-25 years…
These latest figures would translate to a Commons with 223 Con MPs, 170 Reform, 130 Labour, 56 LibDem (SNP 43 etc). Underwhelming. Con minority govt. (supported by Reform?).
Still, would be good to see so many “Labour” careerists culled.
Among those kicked out would be that horrid little bastard Stephen Kinnock, Angela Rayner, Mary Creagh, Ed Miliband, Wes Streeting, Rachel Reeves, Liz Kendall, Sarah Champion, Kim Leadbeater, Torsten Bell, Lisa Nandy (it just gets better!), and Emma Reynolds.
That one would mean Lab 197 MPs, Reform 194, Cons 141 (etc), so maybe a minority Reform government.
What is holding back Reform is that it is not social-national, just conservative-national.

Those American aircraft carriers are incredible, both in themselves and as global power-projection tools. I once met an American carrier commander in the Caribbean. He and his wife were on leave. A funny little man to look at, a bit like the Penguin in the 1960s TV series, Batman, he carried his rank and responsibility lightly. I used to have a few drinks with them once the sun was going down.
Well, for once, political journalist John Rentoul beat me this week, scoring 7/10. I managed only 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, 6, and 7.
Iain Dale was on radio yesterday asking why teachers are leaving the profession in droves & instead of focusing on the main issue of pay, he chose to focus on student behaviour & said 30k is an ok salary… I shook my head & laughed, country full of imbeciles https://t.co/dhNI6mTLon
Well, there it is. Pro-Israel, pro-Jewish Lobby mouthpiece Iain Dale, whose income is in the hundreds of thousands, telling others that £30,000 gross per year is OK…typical hypocrisy.
Runcorn and Helsby, constituency voting intention:
Reform lead of 9 points in Runcorn ought to be 3 pts – it doesn't matter: the direction of traffic between now and polling day is one way https://t.co/DlPLJ2Lo5K
Rentoul obviously thinks that Reform will win the by-election. I should say the same. After all, look at the disaster that is the Starmer-stein government of cretins. “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, thick and uneducated Angela Rayner, would-be dictator Yvette Cooper, idiotic moneygrubber Liz Kendall, thick Pakistani Shabana Mahmood and, to top it all off, thick-as-two-short-planks David Lammy! (see below)
Putin and Lavrov must laugh their heads off at that idiot (and the rest). Worse even than “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss etc.
In fact, the surprise in the by-election opinion polling is that almost a third of people in that constituency still intend to vote “Labour” (Labour-label), even though there is nothing, in the present government, of real Labour at all. Just look at what they have done in the past 7+ months, and what they are planning to do. Even 2010-2024 “Conservative” governments were no worse.
I think that I may stick out my neck and predict that the by-election result will probably be 40%-45% Reform, 25%-30% Labour, 10% Conservative, 5% Green, 5% LibDem. Something like that.
True, a date has yet to be set for the by-election, and the mood may change a little, but not in essence (I think).
The Reform candidate will be under intense scrutiny; the System parties will be doing everything they can to discredit that candidate, and dig up damaging material about him (or her, though I would expect the candidate to be a man, in all likelihood). He (or she) had better be squeaky-clean.
It occurs to me that Reform may select Matt Goodwin. It would be a triumphant entry into direct front-line politics for him, and I note how Reform-loyalist his tweets now are.
I may be wrong, but I should not be surprised to see Matt Goodwin emerge, eventually, as leader of Reform. If he can win a Commons seat between now and the next UK General Election, that might see Goodwin actually become Prime Minister. Stranger things have happened.
As a matter of fact, the shorter the time between selection of a Reform candidate and polling day the better, thus giving Labour backroom spinners less time in which to dig up or contrive anything discreditable…
“Lynne Bennett, 70, voted Labour in July, but this time, she said she would vote Reform, adding: “A lot of our family is going to do the same.”
“I won’t be voting Labour, put it that way,” she said. “And my family [has been] Labour, all our lives.”
[Guardian]
Any former Con voters still thinking of voting Con at the by-election would have to be utterly brainless. The Con candidate has no chance, will probably come only fourth, and may well lose the deposit (i.e. score under 5%). The only way for a Con voter to hit Labour at the by-election is to vote Reform.

That photo, like others recently posted, is a decade or more out of date. Lewis, now an Israeli citizen supposedly resident in Eilat, Israel, is a shambling wreck in 2025, both physically and mentally.
Video footage of ‘Israeli couple’ at the Reginal D Hunter gig in Edinburgh, who turned out to be professional UK Zionist victims Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal, famous for Corbyn-bashing, representing Rachel Riley in legal actions and various publicity stunts.@reginalddhunterpic.twitter.com/XPpeZK7A9g
Readers wishing further detail should use the blog search box: “Mark Lewis”, James Wilson” etc.
Lewis, reprimanded and fined by the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal in 2018 for his malicious and nasty social media activities, fled to Israel, but maintains a legal foothold in England by reason of his nominal partnership in the small and mainly Jewish law firm known as Patron Law, based in a mews side-street in Notting Hill, West London.
As to one of Lewis’s two now-dissolved marriages, to one-time minor British radio and TV newsreader, Caroline Feraday, that fell apart after a year, in or about 2013 . She initially joined in his Twitter abuse of me, but now (having been financially and physically abused etc by Lewis), is washed-up, “fat and fifty”, and a single mother (Lewis was not the father), living in a small house in a “Nowheresville” Californian scrubland suburb, and working for a local radio station out there. #TenGreenBottles…
Incidentally, Caroline Feraday’s Wikipedia entry (heavily edited by herself) has more holes than a Swiss cheese (and Lewis is not even mentioned in it…).
As James Wilson notes, Lewis should have been struck off the solicitors’ roll years ago. That would only happen, though, if someone such as Wilson were to make an official complaint…
“Celebrity lawyer” whose only assets in 2018 were, according to his own defence Counsel at the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal, his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a £70 a week private pension. Even his car was being provided for him via the DWP Motability scheme (funded by all those “antisemitic” British taxpayers).
Actually, he did, it seems, also own a flat in Israel at the time, but he seems to have concealed that fact from the Tribunal and, presumably, also from his own Counsel. Dishonest. Unfit.
What worries me is that if Mark Lewis knowingly tried to mislead the court in my case, what about other cases?
Has Lewis won other cases by basically cheating for his clients?
Unless Wilson complains to the SRA, that is not going to happen. Perhaps, though, he will make formal complaint.

If Tories now cheer disability cuts, foreign aid cuts and cutting thousands of jobs they themselves created in the NHS then they have lost their minds. The list of reasons to leave them endless. Unrecognisable as a party from the Cameron years. A clever and morally solid ON…
That lady, the ex-wife of an ex-MP (Con), seems to have forgotten the terrible cruelty of the David Cameron-Levita/George Osborne years, 2010-2015, when nasty little jumped-up types such as part-Japanese Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, and the part-Jew “Lord” David Freud, caused such misery, pain, and death to the unemployed, sick, and disabled.
Starmer-stein “Labour”, though, seems to be diving even deeper into the abyss than did the “Conservatives” from 2010-2024 and especially 2010-2015.
The Conservative Party, now “led” (astray?) by a Nigerian woman chancer, is destined to disappear, I think. It now seems to have no natural constituency among the public (even the elderly are abandoning it), and its place in the political matrix seems to be based mainly on the fact that it has been there for nearly 200 years. No obvious “offer” to the people or, in particular, the voters.
Mass deportations should be the default position of any self-respecting country.
Aiming to remove all illegal migrants from our country is in no way controversial. And actually, a large majority of Brits agree with me.
I would go much further than that. For one thing, illegal migrant-invaders are only about a twentieth of the current migration invasion, perhaps less. Also, there are, shall I say, other groups that should not exist in the UK.
If it had been, say, a White English woman who posted satirical parody songs on her own website…@SpeechUnion's selective defence / condemnation and ensuing promotion of these, imo, more trivial cases is a sad reflection of what passes for 'conservatism' in today's Britain.
The Toby Young fake “Free Speech Union” grift-org was penetrated and permeated by the (((you-know-who))) element right from the start. It never said a word in support of a woman who posted amusing satirical songs, mainly about Jews (Alison Chabloz, imprisoned for the same), or in support of a man who gave a speech in Whitehall (Jez Turner, imprisoned for that), or a man who distributed stickers which even the Prosecution at his trial conceded were “not unlawful” (Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative, imprisoned for that), or a man who ran an Internet “radio” podcast show (Sven Longshanks/James Allchurch, imprisoned for that), or a man who was disbarred for having tweeted 5 tweets, all absolutely true in their content (that was me), or a man convicted of having posted 5 supposedly partly “grossly offensive” blog posts, out of about two thousand (me, again— fined over £700 and forced to attend half a dozen or so pointless meetings with a Probation Service person, though she was very polite and rather charming, so be it).
How about making it a “priority”, and indeed a given, to have only real British people in Parliament?

Well, Shabana Mahmood, obviously, is not really British in the full sense, though born in the UK. Pakistani parents, and she lived until age 6 in Taif, Saudi Arabia.
Even leaving that aside, the qualifications of Shabana Mahmood to be mock-“Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice are ludicrously lightweight, even for contemporary Britain: a Bar pupillage (traineeship) for 12 months, then a year as a low-paid “gopher” at a firm of solicitors. I do not think that she was even working as a lawyer of any sort between then (2008) and when she was elected as MP in 2010. So, at best, two years, and as the most junior of lawyers…

Looks nice. Pretty sure that that hotel did not exist when I lived in the “tri-state region” (1989-1993, on and off). My first wife told me that, as a girl of about 10, which would have been in the mid-1970s, she used to ride her bicycle across to Roosevelt Island. Not sure that I would have allowed my daughter of 10 (if I had one) to do that. Roosevelt Island was fairly derelict then, as far as I know.
On the other hand, my own parents used to let me travel into Sydney from where we lived (Mosman/Cremorne) from age 10 or 11 (1967 and the succeeding 2 years) and, when I was aged 12/13, were letting me travel alone by Greyhound bus to Miami, and also walk alone around Acapulco and other places. Perhaps parents and other people now are less secure, more frightened (like society generally).

Watched a recent TV drama or thriller called The Au Pair the other day. Set mainly in the Cotswolds, though filmed in Ireland, it was quite good, and had an interesting twist in the plot near the end of the four 1-hour episodes, but —irritatingly— the makers felt the need to shoehorn some West Indians into the story (set in one of the least “diverse” parts of England!); the garden party scene was even more absurd (and even less credible). This country is just so ****** now. Made so, actually, by ill-intentioned individuals and groups.
True enough, but the main attack on free speech in the UK comes from the Jewish or Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, and I never hear Matt Goodwin or Farage (etc) saying anything about that.

“Maria Zakharova ridiculed British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy’s claim that “the British-Ukrainian partnership goes back thousands of years.” ” The roots of this friendship go back to the foot of the Egyptian pyramids? Why so little? They even hunted brontosauruses together ,” Zakharova joked.
During a visit to Kiev, David Lemmy stated that “Kiev princesses were marrying British princes” a thousand years ago.”
Lammy personifies the old Russian proverb, “an ape in a silk suit is still an ape“…(incidentally, that proverb was not originally meant to reference blacks, because there were none in Russia until the 20thC and even today they are few; it was basically metaphorical).
Here is “diversity-hire”, thick-as-two-short-planks, Lammy making a fool of himself once again, this time on Celebrity Mastermind:
Ha ha! Evergreen…
Incidentally, Ukraine only became a nominally independent state in 1991, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Its entire previous history was as part of the Russian state or its predecessor, Rus, though parts of Western Ukraine were within the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries.
Lammy is a total embarrassment as Foreign Secretary, but Starmer cannot easily sack him, having appointed him. Why? Because he is black. Simply that.
“The NHS has advertised almost a dozen ‘woke‘ jobs within the last few weeks, including one equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) role paying almost £123,000, MailOnline can reveal.
The recruitment drive comes days after Health Secretary Wes Streeting warned diversity and inclusion in the NHS has gone too far with some staff now promoting ‘anti-whiteness’ within the health service.
The Associate Dean with responsibility for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion role, advertised by NHS England, is based in the South West and comes with a salary of £122,470.
The salary is equivalent to the entry-level pay of up to three NHS doctors or four nurses.
According to the job description, the successful candidate can work from home 60 per cent of the time and will be responsible for ensuring medical students from different backgrounds have equal opportunities.”

British people find it hard to access peanuts-level State benefits, but a foreign migrant-invader, who entered this country on a fraudulent basis, is given £100,000! She should not even be here! You really could not make up what is happening in this country.
Incidentally, look at the readers’ comments on that Daily Mail report. It is only a thousand or more years of slow accretion of patience, and belief in a society under law, that is preventing a socio-political explosion in the UK (so far).

If you go into a shop in, say, Egypt, a small shop that in the UK (if owned by real British people) would probably have one or two people, maybe three at most, but probably one or two, working there, you will find that the owner has half a dozen people working there, probably related to him in some way. Open long hours, perhaps, and the people there doing little individually. Paid peanuts, of course. Likewise, offices.
I understand that India and other such poor countries are similar.
Non-crime “hate” incidents are, ipso facto, not crimes. If the police continue to be incapable of doing their proper job, and if they continue to behave like a blundering, hopeless, poundshop KGB, snooping on people’s opinions, tweets, blogs etc, they deserve to be, when the UK has a real government, dismissed and put to work as forced labour.
On those figures, the House of Commons might look like this: Reform UK 256, Labour 217, LibDems 78, Conservatives 43, Greens 6 (SNP 19 etc).
That would mean either a weak minority Reform government, or an exceptionally-weak Labour minority government backed by LibDems, SNP and other minor parties.
Arguably the most interesting aspect of the latest polling is the apparent continuing collapse of the Conservative Party (predicted, of course, on this blog). Not only 4th placed, after the LibDems in 3rd, but with little better than half as many MPs as the LibDems.
I read today that CCHQ may be unable to pay the rent on its office building. I would not be surprised to see quite a few Con Party MPs now jump to Reform in the hope of being accepted as candidates for the seats they currently occupy as “Conservatives”. I wonder how many will be deemed acceptable. If they delay too long crossing the line, they may not be accepted.
I was interested to read that article on the Conservative Home website. The comments were 95% or more pro-Reform and anti-Con Party.
“Blimey. Simon Myerson KC chattin’ about other barristers apologising and showing a lack of judgement. A judge decided Myerson engaged in “disgraceful abuse” of me and I’m still waiting for Myerson’s apology. It’s all covered in my next S-stack post out tomorrow. Link in bio.”
[James Wilson]
You will get no “apology” from Myerson. “They” always like to extract “apologies” from their enemies or opponents; they see that as victory (and humiliation for those “apologizing”).
Their instincts are, of course, not those of the European.
As Corbyn noted, years ago, “they” also usually lack a sense of irony, likewise the ability to see themselves.
Myerson was sacked as a p/t judge (“Recorder”) last year for his inability to stop savagely insulting others online. In short, he was found to lack the proper judgment required of those who aspire to sit on the Bench.

Saw two silly twits on Sky News earlier, being interviewed separately. The first was someone called General Shirreff (retired) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shirreff], who thinks that war with Russia is all but inevitable, that the UK should double or triple the amount it spends on armed services in all ways, and that it is essential for the UK to back up “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev).
I find it disturbing that an officer previously at such a high rank and with such heavy responsibilities until retirement should actually think that Britain should embroil itself even further in the brutal, shambolic, and corrupt Kiev-regime war, and try to confront Russia in Eastern Europe.
Come to that, the UK should also have steered clear of a number of other late-19thC and early 20thC conflicts: the Balkan war(s) of the 1990s, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Libyan uprising.
President Kennedy said, of General Curtis LeMay [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_LeMay], that, in a war requiring an all-out attack, you would want LeMay commanding the first wave of the bomber force, but that he was the last person who should decide whether there should be a war at all. Having heard General Shirreff’s attempt at geopolitical argument, I rather think that that is also my view of General Shirreff.
Any war with Russia would leave what is left of this country, and worth defending, in ruins. Irradiated ruins, over which those of us who survive will crawl in misery. Nein danke!
The said Chalk, who lost his Commons seat in 2024, was briefly Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice under Sunak. My thoughts about him, having now heard him (I was only peripherally aware of his existence, previously) relate more to his ideas about how to fund the justice system than to his actual decisions when in high office. He wants even more cuts to the “welfare” (social security) budget, and for that money to be directed to the courts, legal professions, prisons etc. A rehash of 2010-2015 “austerity” nonsense, in short, but with money given to the legal and justice system (and defence). He seemed a smug bastard, rather full of himself. Again, nein danke!
There comes a point when many people wonder whether we still have much worth “defending”. In fact, I think that many have already reached such a conclusion, which is why recruitment to the armed forces has become a thorny issue. I saw an ad for the Army today, showing an entirely black platoon in the field. Has the Army given up trying to recruit real British people?

The “traveller” situation is one of the biggest public order challenges in the UK. The police are not only unwilling (at senior, “woke”, level) to deal with it; in some cases they seem to be pandering to these unpleasant criminal nuisances.

Seems as if making a cheap Jewish TV-comedian “President” of Ukraine and de facto generalissimo was not such a good idea…
More seriously, for how long can the Kiev-regime forces continue to suffer such losses? 1,000+ per day. That’s huge. Even if it is claimed that Russia is also losing enormous numbers, Russia has a far larger population; the likelihood is that Russian losses are anyway not as catastrophic as those on the other side.
Trump’s actions as US President will be key to how fast the Kiev-regime front continues to crumble. It is very unlikely that Trump will continue the open-handed Biden policy. There will certainly be no increase in the supply of arms, ammunition, and money to Kiev; there is every chance that the supply will diminish, and it may stop altogether.
Any peace agreement acceptable to the Russian side will probably involve the forces of the Kiev regime falling back on Kiev, at least, and across the entire front falling back across the Dnieper.
That alone will not solve the problem of Kiev itself; nor that of Odessa. It may be that a solution is to make them both “free cities” not organically part of either state.
Russia is probably willing to accept the above, so long as the rump Ukraine state (centred, arguende, on Lvov) does not join NATO.
Whether the present Kiev regime would accept such a peace is uncertain, but if the front continues to crumble, Zelensky —now ruling unconstitutionally, having cancelled elections— may have little choice. He is running out of “soldiers” (press-ganged cannon-fodder), his “state” is almost entirely dependent on Western aid (and the charity of NGOs and innumerable Western individuals), and Russia is forging ahead in terms of arms and numbers of men.
The only hope for Zelensky’s regime, now that the USA and most EU states are rowing back from the real peril of nuclear war, is that Russia implodes, and Putin is deposed (and then replaced by someone less determined). If that is going to happen, it will have to happen during 2025; after that, Russian forces will be at the gates of Kiev anyway.
“A woman who went missing 52 years ago has been found alive and well after police released a grainy photograph as part of an appeal, solving one of Britain’s longest-running missing person cases.
Sheila Fox, now 68, disappeared from Coventry in 1972 when she was 16. At the time, West Midlands police said she had been living with her parents and could have been in a relationship with a man. Officers said they were keeping an open mind, believing she may have moved out of the area.
On Sunday, West Midlands police launched a fresh appeal to help find Fox, releasing a photograph of her from around the time of her disappearance on their website and social media.
Within hours of it going out, members of the public had got in touch with information, and on Wednesday police officers confirmed that Fox was alive and well. They said she was living in another part of the country.“
[Guardian]
So the police decided to try to find a woman who (obviously intentionally) had wanted to live a different life, and who disappeared from her usual life 52 years ago, in 1972.
Why is public money being wasted like this?
If there are indications of “foul play”, then by all means try to find a missing person a year after disappearance; indeed, maybe 10 years, or even 20 years later. After that, better to draw a line under it.
In fact, as far as actual crimes are concerned, I believe that there should be more limitations of time than presently exist. Most magistrates’ court matters already have (and have had since 1980) a 6-month limitation period, which saves the courts and police from getting clogged by relatively trivial matters going back years.
Stupid Theresa May (Conservative Friends of Israel member) changed that in part, in respect of offences under Communications Act 2003, s.127 (a “bad law” anyway); such offences are now (sometimes) justiciable up to 3 years from commission, but all that has done is to embolden malicious nuisances, such as the Jewish “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], to nag the weak police and CPS to investigate and prosecute, pointlessly, tweets or blog posts years after they were allegedly posted. See my own free speech trial for example:
The whole purpose —wrongheaded anyway— of the legislation in question was to deter and punish “grossly offensive” tweets etc more or less at, or not long after, the time when they were published, not to enable malicious trolls to get the police and CPS to bring silly and pointless prosecutions years after the material comments or remarks were allegedly posted online.
The present systemic delay in court proceedings also means that an allegedly unlawful tweet or blog post published today, in early January 2025, might not be charged until early 2028, and might not come to court until late 2028, or 2029, or even, in extreme cases, 2030. Ridiculous.
Many countries have time limitation even for serious cases, even including such crimes as murder. Japan, for one. Also, many states of the USA.
Yes, it does mean that a few criminals, even murderers, are never prosecuted, merely by reason of effluxion of time, but “hard cases make bad law“, as we have seen in many of the laws passed in the UK in the past 20-30 years. The minds of police and prosecutors should focus on cases of (real) crime in the present world, not possible crimes committed years or even decades ago.
“People with Scandinavian ancestry were in Britain long before the Anglo-Saxons or the Vikings turned up, researchers have found after studying the genetics of an ancient Roman buried in York.
Instead of considering all of the genetic differences between populations, the new method focuses on relatively recent mutations within genomes – arising, for example, in the past 30,000 years or so – allowing the relationships between genetically similar populations to be explored in greater detail.
Among other findings, the team was able to shed new light on the migration of Germanic groups early in the first millennium, revealing at least two waves of migration from northern Germany or Scandinavia into western, central and eastern Europe.”

Ukraine will face major problems due to the suspension of Russian gas transit, said Verkhovna Rada deputy Artem Dmytruk. ” Kiev’s losses are colossal. Ukraine will lose transit revenues, which previously amounted to $800 million per year ,” he added.
Dmytruk said that the Ukrainian authorities will try to compensate for the loss at the expense of domestic consumers, but “none of it will work.” He noted that this is another anti-state decision by Vladimir Zelensky.“
Of course, it seems odd that, during the currency of such a bitter conflict, the Russians have been pumping gas across Kiev-regime territory to Central and Western Europe for 3 years, with the full agreement of the Kiev regime, and paying the Kiev regime handsomely for facilitating that and for not interfering, in effect.
It’s a mad world, but that arrangement suited both sides; a “Devil’s alternative”, if you like.
A cautionary word

“Volker: Ukraine may be obliged not to return territories controlled by Russian military.
Former US Ambassador to Kiev Kurt Volker said that Ukraine may be forced not to try to return territories that came under Russian control during the Special Military Operation.
He explained: “Ukraine may be obligated not to try to return them. We will certainly see obligations or an understanding that it will not be returned to Ukraine by military means.“
According to him, at the same time, the West will not recognize Moscow’s territorial acquisitions. Some Western media outlets have reported that Vladimir Zelensky is allegedly ready to end the conflict without returning to Ukraine the territories controlled by the Russian military.“
Endgame?
In the General Election of 2024, over 40% of people decided not to vote. Many, perhaps most, of those non-voters were, in all likelihood, disgusted by the whole “Westminster Monkeyhouse”, by all System parties. Others voted Reform UK, as an angry gesture as much as anything. Things may be getting to the point where a majority of people in the UK, especially in England and Wales, consider elections a rigged waste of time.
It may be that only the present repression, MI5/police snooping, severe prison sentences, and the relative unavailability of weapons etc, are keeping the lid on more, and more-directed, incidences of uprising.
Only social nationalism can offer real hope, yet there exists no political party of any size offering people that as an electoral alternative.
The System might be able to relax, were its governments and ministers, such as the government led by “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer, competent or lucky. Such is, however, not the case.

“NATO will be demilitarized for a decade in the event of a conflict with Russia and China , said American military expert Will Shriver. “
“In a conventional conflict against China and Russia, NATO would exhaust all its stockpiles of missiles of all types, lose dozens of large warships and hundreds of its best aircraft – and all in less than a month ,” he added.“
The UK should stay out of any such conflict which, if it starts, might well go nuclear, finishing our country forever.
Having said that, if NATO were to lose such a conventional war, part of the ensuing peace agreement might —speculating rather much— involve the demilitarization of the UK under a properly British but pro-Russian, or not-anti-Russian, government, perhaps a social-national one. That might actually be better for most British people than where we are now.
My experience with having had 4 bikes stolen in London, is the Police are 100% ….not interested. I recovered one because I spotted it tied up whilst driving through Tooting. Other time we had clrar CCTV image of face, but not interested.
This of course goes far beyond “mere” theft of bicycles.
A couple of years ago, my Australian niece, in her early twenties and —at the time— living for a couple of years in London, decided to start cycling from her London flat (West Kensington) to her office (West End). A brave and perhaps unwise decision. All went well until, one fine summer day, a car hit her not very far from her home, at a busy intersection. A place where there are shops, cafes and, therefore, cctv. She was knocked off her bike, and left in the road. The driver sped off. Thankfully, she had no serious injuries; bruises and cuts, mainly.
My niece did report the incident (it may be that passers-by did too, at the time). The police did nothing, absolutely nothing, despite the fact that this was a hit and run vehicle crime which could well have been more serious, even a fatality. They did not even collect cctv, despite the time of the “accident” (crime) being known to within a few minutes. Useless.
Another crime: I know that I have blogged about this previously, but my regular readers will please grant me this indulgence.
A couple of years ago, in early 2023, a wheel was stolen from my car. Local people were able to provide me with some good leads as to the likely thief or his connections. I passed that information on to the police online and via telephone (they did not turn up at all in person, despite likely DNA evidence or fingerprints left on a jack). Nothing happened. No action, no investigation. Useless people.
Imagine my surprise, then (and as I later discovered), that the uniformed constable (from Hampshire Constabulary) who was in everyday charge of the relevant “neighbourhood crime team”, turned out to be the very same policeman who, together with a female colleague, had turned up, at my now very humble home, and on my birthday, in 2021, some 18 months previously, having been asked to do so by Gloucestershire Police at the behest of one Stephen Silverman, the self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” at the fanatical pro-Israel Jewish pressure-group called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”.
Silverman’s malicious, and completely false, complaint to the police against me (on the ground of “racial harassment”) is detailed here:
Well, nothing came of that attempted perversion of the course of justice by Silverman, but he has never been charged (((why?))). Au contraire— the tiny but well-funded “CAA” cabal simply persuaded (via direct political pressure and interference) the Wessex Crown —or Clown— Prosecution Service (Wessex CPS) to prosecute me on a completely different legal basis, and in respect of (small parts of) 5 blog posts, out of the, at the time, well over 1,500 blog posts published from late 2016 to early 2023.
My free speech trial in late 2023, my sentencing hearing in March 2024, and the aftermath of the trial and sentencing are detailed here:
The same policeman already noted above in today’s blog and in those other days’ blogs, turned up at every hearing of my “case”— first appearance in June or July 2023, a later “case management” appearance when the trial was deferred, the one-day trial, the sentencing hearing (and another hearing prior to sentence when the “Clown” Prosecutor made a doomed attempt to give my “case” a “hate crime” uplift). Four or maybe even five hearings; every time, that policeman was there, sitting in the waiting area and at the back of the court (he did give evidence, briefly, at the trial, and was equally-briefly cross-examined by me).
So that policeman spent 5 days on attending court, related to my quite pointless trial, as well as (with other “guardians of law and order”) a number of days cobbling together the huge amount of material required by the Clown Prosecution Service. Also, parts of other days in 2021, wasted on Silverman’s completely false and malicious allegation that he was “racially harassed” by me (I did not know his address, or his telephone number or email, and had never once spoken to him, or even seen him, still less confronted him).
Days which that policeman and his colleagues might have used more productively, dealing with real crime and/or investigating Silverman’s 2021 attempt to pervert the course of justice.
Incidentally, Silverman, despite now living in Gloucestershire (prior to that, in Essex), made the fairly long journey to Southampton Magistrates’ Court both for my trial and for the sentencing hearing, though he slunk out on the latter occasion once he realized that the sentence (a 9-month “community order” and £734 costs etc) was not going to be as severe as he and his horrible little “CAA” cabal had hoped.
I should add that, on one of the preliminary days in court, in summer 2023, a different “CAA” creature turned up to snoop, a kind of bearded and very long-haired near-dwarf, like something out of Lord of the Rings.
Well, there it is. The police politicized, suborned (along with the Clown Prosecution Service) and apparently incapable of doing their proper job, while behaving as a so-far relatively velvet-glove and poundshop Stasi.

Even many of the hard-core Zionist Jews seem to be opposed to the ethnic cleansing Israel is continuing to carry out in Gaza.
Some of those who are most in favour of the ethnic cleansing and/or genocidal policies of the Netanyahu government seem to be, looking at Twitter/X, Jews living in the UK. They will be the very same Jews who are constantly trying to destroy free speech in this country, as seen in, inter alia, my own free speech trial (trials, if you include the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal which wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred me at the behest of the Jew-Zionist lobby in late 2016: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/).

It was obvious before they even took power that Labour’s “plan” wouldn’t work
Anyway, what Goodwin is omitting to add is that the importation of non-Europeans into the UK and the rest of Europe is a planned and evil strategy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.
Starmer has no more intention of stopping the migration-invasion than did Sunak, Johnson, or the others.
The Home Office has been concealing that kind of data for not only years but for decades. I blogged, several years ago, about the experience I had when a superannuated “first six” [months] Bar pupil (trainee) in early 1992, and when my “pupilmaster” (supervisor, mentor, lager-buyer…) had a trial involving Arab Gypsies originally from North Africa, of whom the Home Office were aware, and who (a clan of about 5,000 in and by London) lived (and no doubt still live) from thieving, begging, and by accessing the social security system. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/08/03/first-steal-a-chicken/.
That other person, talking to Goodwin, talks about Starmer’s “loveless majority“. It may have a Commons majority, by reason of the ludicrously unfair and illogical voting system in the UK, but it has and had no popular vote majority, and its plurality of votes, in percentage terms, is one of the lowest ever— 33.7%, only just a third of those who voted; 4 out of every 12. Over 40% of the eligible electorate did not vote. Only 4 in every 20 people eligible to vote voted for Labour and Starmer.
Labour are no longer the party of the working class people from the industrial towns of the UK. They are now the party of the woke dinner party set.
Both main System parties are hanging on only because of a voting system that is basically binary. Tweedledum/Tweedledee. Despite that, they are both going down. Reform UK may be a poor alternative, but is a straw at which many will clutch between now and 2029.

The complainant, known as Officer A, experienced pressure on her bum at a Ping Pong bar in January 2020, but the misconduct panel found she had not complained at the time and that witnesses evidence was unreliable because they had been drinking since 3:30pm at Joker Bar in Chapel Market in Angel. A complaint was only made on the woman’s behalf two years later, the panel heard.“

A couple of points. Firstly, note that all three police “officers” involved are still in the police, incredibly. Secondly, note the appallingly-poor colloquial English (“bum“; “getting off“) used by the My London reporter, one Callum Cuddeford. In fact, I have noticed previously his poor English, and his habit of intruding personal bias (in other stories). He is not alone. “Journalists” scarcely exist now. What you get are 20-something scribblers and (on TV) talking heads, most of whom know nothing.

“Cool. People should learn about how virtually every slave sent to UK colonies or the US was SOLD TO WHITE PEOPLE BY BLACK SLAVERS. They should also learn about Britain’s role in ending the international slave trade, so the BLACK SLAVERS had to sell their slaves to Arabs. And of course, they should find out that more white people were sent as slaves to Africa than black people taken out of Africa. Finally, they should learn about modern slavery, where the slavers are almost exclusively black and brown people. Libyan slave trade below. But of course, Jovan doesn’t want any of that. He just wants to tell one side of the story.“
Also, there were “indentured servants” in Virginia and elsewhere, white British people sent to the Americas as —in effect— slaves for a fixed period: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentured_servitude.
Another aspect the “Good Law Project” fails to note is the very considerable Jewish involvement in the trade in black African slaves.
Incidentally, that African shown in the first tweet was the failed Labour candidate for the Clacton constituency at the 2024 General Election, and was soundly beaten by Nigel Farage of Reform UK; he ended up with a mere 16.2% of the vote, and in a poor third place: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clacton_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.
I spent a month in 1998 (during several months I spent in Egypt) living in the oasis of Siwa, near the Libyan border. Until about 1945, slave caravans, bringing black slaves from Central Africa to Egypt, would pass through Siwa.

Looks as though that African is going the same way as Femi Oluwole (a total waste of space, prominent online but not of the slightest use to Britain or its people): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Oluwole.
As for the “Good Law Project”, it is the vehicle of half-Jew barrister Jolyon Maugham, arguably best-known for having brutally killed, at his country home (a windmill), and using a baseball bat, a fox. Another waste of space, in my opinion.
Incidentally, anyone who thinks that Maugham, a tax barrister (I do not know whether he is still in active practice) must, ipso facto (or otherwise), be some kind of great mind, should take a look at his efforts when on the team of Birkbeck (London University) playing “celebrity”/alumni Christmas University Challenge a few years ago: https://order-order.com/2022/01/11/jolyon-wins-university-challenge-after-getting-almost-every-question-wrong/. Maugham managed to combine self-importance, massive over-confidence, and ignorance, in a manner truly stellar.

“FURIOUS residents said they felt ‘helpless’ after a 95-year-old woman was forced to wait on the pavement for more than five hours for an ambulance.
On Monday, November 25, Winifred Soanes was left on the cold pavement after falling and breaking her hip in Christchurch High Street.
Accompanied by her husband of 61 years, Andrew, 92, who ‘wouldn’t leave her side,’ several people stayed to help, with nearby businesses pulling together, offering essentials to keep Winifred as comfortable as possible in the ‘freezing’ weather.
David Lovell, who saw the fall, was the first to call for an ambulance, staying with Winifred and Andrew for the five and a half hours.
He said: “I can’t describe how cold it was, and as it got dark, the temperature dropped really quickly.
“She was lying on the cold pavement, and we couldn’t move her because she was in huge amounts of pain.”
Because of the way she fell, David and the others had to find a way to prop her head up, getting some shoe boxes from stall holders and a pillow from a pub.
Staff at Mountain Warehouse provided sleeping bags, and the charity shops gave blankets and hot water bottles.
Jennifer Baylis, who works at the Prama charity shop, helped throughout the day.
She said: “I can’t tell you how upsetting it was, she actually said, ‘I’m going to die here tonight’.”
Jennifer said a number of people attempted to call an ambulance and explained that she was a vulnerable elderly person. However, they were given no time frame and were told she was not a priority.
Winifred’s husband, Andrew, is diabetic and a veteran, but despite needing to care for his own health, he stayed by her side in the cold.
He said: “The situation was dire, but it’s great to know that when they need to, the community all pull together to help.“
Andrew, who called his wife his ‘soul mate’, said she was taken to Poole Hospital for treatment and is waiting for specialist operation for her injuries.
People who witnessed Winifred’s distress criticised the ‘broken system’, many of whom have called for a reform of how the service is operated.“

Hamada Salah, 28, who is seeking asylum in the UK, targeted two lone women in separate incidents on a TransPennine Express journey from Leeds to Middlesbrough in February.
The victims were left feeling ‘objectified’ and ‘unnerved’ after the Egyptian national began showing them pornography, Newcastle Crown Court heard.
Salah targeted a woman aged 20, which he said was ‘the perfect age for sex’, and started touching her legs, before moving to another part of the train before rubbing his groin in front of a 67-year-old passenger.
Judge Carolyn Scott said it must have been a ‘terrible ordeal for a woman of 20’ and added: ‘She was on public transport and had no opportunity to escape the situation.’
She sentenced Salah to a suspended jail term and also gave him a sexual harm prevention order which prohibits him from communicating with any unknown female on public transport unless it is a member of staff in relation to her duties.
He has also been banned from deliberately touching any unknown female on public transport under the same order.
Judge Scott sentenced Salah to 44 weeks, suspended for two years, with rehabilitation requirements and 200 hours unpaid work.
Salah was ordered to sign the sex offenders register and abide by the sexual harm prevention order for ten years.
