Saturday quiz

Well, this week I scored 5/10, again beating political journalist John Rentoul, who scored a modest 3/10. I knew the answers to questions 2, 5, 6, 7, and 10. Had I not misread the question, I should also have got no. 8, and in the back of my mind I knew number 1 as well. Never mind.

Interesting to recall to mind that, if all ice on the Earth were to melt, sea levels would rise by no less than 230 feet. Where I once lived in London, Little Venice, is only about 60 ft above sea level. Where I now live is about 80 ft a.s.l., and where I was largely brought up, Caversham Heights, near Reading, on the border of Berkshire and South Oxfordshire, is —despite the “Heights” name— still only 180 ft a.s.l. Indeed, where I lived in New Jersey is only about 150 ft. a.s.l. despite its rather American name of Skytop Gardens.

Time was, when storms and hurricanes had suitably tempestuous female names such as Veronica, Pamela, and Annie. Political correctness then took over even the weather forecast.

I rarely repost such an Israel-lobby scribbler, but truth is truth. In fact, I made a very similar comment myself on the blog, yesterday.

The police have largely given up their proper job of protecting the public and detecting crime (and deterring it), and have become the militia of the “woke” state. Criticize the groups that do much of the real crime (think caravans, or drill “music”, reggae etc, or Romanian passports carried by non-European-looking women in long dresses stuffed with stolen goods) and you yourself will fall victim to the poundshop Stasi that the UK police has become.

40 years ago, Surrey Police were very efficient; times seem to have changed.

As for Essex Police, they tried and failed to have me prosecuted for writing online the truth nearly 8 years ago. My blog article about it (written 6 months later) has proven one of my most popular, having had thousands of views:

If a type of insect were so cruel and destructive, people would call in Rentokil.

Lindsey Graham stands out even in the U.S. Congress as a complete doormat for Israel and the American Jewish lobby. He should not be permitted to continue.

As for the threat to “crush the economy of the UK“, be careful what you wish for, bastard. The UK and EU states may end up forming a rapprochement with Russia, barring American interference with our economies and cultures, and letting the USA die on the vine, preoccupied with its upcoming racial/societal/cultural war.

Gung-ho careerist all-too-ready to have a war with Russia. Does he also accept that, in such a war, the UK might become a devastated irradiated wasteland? Does he imagine that that is somehow brave, or honourable? All because of a cabal of Jew-Zionists who are running a shambolic and brutal dictatorship in Kiev. Why? Meaning— “what is the real agenda?”…

Bar news

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14117229/barrister-accused-sexual-activity-younger-woman-hotel-grooming.html

A King’s Counsel who once headed up the Criminal Bar Association allegedly used his powerful and influential position to coax an aspiring barrister into ‘unwanted’ sexual activity, a tribunal has heard.

Navjot ‘Jo’ Sidhu, who is married, faces 10 charges of professional misconduct that pertain to allegations of sexually inappropriate behaviour with two young women who came to him for advice.

Sidhu, who hails from Southall in west London, wrote he ‘never wanted to be a barrister’ in a column for Counsel magazine in 2023, in which he extolled the virtues of equality and diversity.

I can feel the “diversity” from here!

Of course, “those people” are not the only ones who do such things as alleged, but proportionately, they do far far more of such activity than English people.

The slide to dystopia in the UK continues…

“This British man and former soldier who served his country in Iraq and Afghanistan and has PTSD has just been sent to prison for two years because of what he said on Facebook in the aftermath of Southport.

Here’s what he said: -“Civil war is here. The only thing missing is bullets, that’s the next step.”

-he said he is only racist “to those who suck the life out of our culture. As a culture we are too nice and soft” -“They want us to be Islamic, that’s why they are here.”

-“Come on guys, it’s time to stand up. Everything our ancestors, our grandparents and parents fought for is gone, don’t be scared.”

-he then posted a series of AI images including a child dressed as a medieval knight carrying a sword next to lion with the caption “Time to wake up the lion to save our children’s future”.

-an image that depicted a man wearing what was described in court as “traditional Islamic clothing” with a large knife being held over his head

-and a third image depicting a group of men in traditional Islamic dress chasing a crying child in a Union flag t-shirt in front of the Houses of Parliament.

He was sent to prison for two years.”

One of several ridiculous aspects to political prosecutions of this sort is that, in that case as in many others, the defendant posted certain things, certain comments. He was sentenced, both harshly and absurdly, to 2 years, meaning he will probably serve about 9 months, yet the very same words have now been shared by the Clown Prosecution Service, the police (I believe), the System news media, people such as Matt Goodwin, all those who retweeted Matt Goodwin’s tweet (at time of writing, about 600), and others such as me, as seen hereinabove.

Obviously, that defendant’s words were posted on an earlier date and in, arguably, different circumstances (the now-famous protests and/or “riots”).

As regular readers will know, the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby finally procured (via direct political pressure and after a decade of trying) my prosecution, which happened last year, the one-day trial taking place in November 2023. I was sentenced in March 2024, as seen below:

A 9-month “community order”, now almost expired (and, in reality, long-ago finished with), and a financial impost (now paid off via instalments and a crowdfunder). See those earlier blog articles.

Possibly, but if so, by that time Farage will have become even more “System”; he is already going that way, not only pro-Israel but mellow towards the Muslims in the UK.

Britain should join with Russia and mainland Europe, thus creating a loose confederation based on shared values and mutual interests.

The crazy and stupid policy of recent UK governments, provoking and almost directly attacking Russia, is bound to result, in the end, in a major war and, quite likely, the destruction of much of Britain, certainly all the major cities, followed by civil war, social war, and overall chaos.

The intelligent Swedish policy of neutrality saved the Swedes from two massive wars in the 20thC. Looks like the present NWO/ZOG government is going to throw all that away.

Regular readers of the blog will know that the dim Essex Police invited me for a “voluntary” interview (in fact, entirely involuntary) in 2017, because Stephen Silverman, the malicious and self-styled “Head of Investigations and Enforcement” at the very small but (((well-funded))) pressure group, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], laid a complaint against me and also (as the police themselves told me) against about half a dozen other persons (all unknown to me) in respect of allegedly “antisemitic” tweets. At the time, Silverman lived in South Essex.

My account of that is here: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/13/when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/.

Well, that was in early January 2017. Here we are, almost 8 years later, and I no longer have a Twitter account (the Jewish lobby managed to have me expelled in 2018), but I am still publishing the blog almost daily. Several of those who have targeted me over the years have “shuffled off this mortal coil” already.

In fact, the picture is yet more stark. If you discount births to non-whites, the figures for almost all those countries would be lower. That is certainly the case regarding the UK, France, and Germany.

Scientific research seems to have established that the majority of people in Europe today, certainly the majority of real (i.e. white) Europeans, are descended from only 3 individuals in the Bronze Age, and most of those present-day people from only one man. I have featured that research a couple of times on the blog: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/26/the-tide-is-coming-in-reflections-on-the-possible-end-of-our-present-civilization-and-what-might-follow/.

It may be that a small group of people will have to lay the foundations for both a new society and, over time, a new race-formation. All others will fall by the wayside.

Looks hopeful…

Deutschland erwache!

journalist from The Telegraph, Allison Pearson, is under investigation by British police for an alleged “hate crime” due to a year-old social media post. The details surrounding the post are vague—Pearson has not been informed of the content or the identity of the person who made the accusation. This has drawn concerns about free speech and police overreach, with critics describing the situation as “Kafkaesque”stigation has sparked a, particularly regarding the lack of transparency in the process.

What else is new? See:

I do not recall the “conservative” or other “free speech” supposed activists speaking up for me. Not Allison Pearson, not Toby Young or his “Free Speech Union”, not Matt Goodwin, not any of the Breitbart, “Prison Planet”, “Sargon of Akkad” lot, not Katie Hopkins— none of them. “Human rights” barristers? No. Not one. Not even, as far as I recall, Nick Griffin or other nationalist-type activists online. Not one.

Of course, the reason is clear. “The usual suspects”, aka (((“them”))) and their evil, malign influence over politics, the legal system, and the mainstream media, and even the “alt-Right” social media types (who fear losing their Twitter/X accounts and so much of their influence and/or income).

Ah. Yet I do not recall the Daily Telegraph speaking up for me; not when I was wrongfully and actually unlawfully disbarred in 2016, nor when the Jewish lobby (sub nom “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, actually a tiny though well-funded group) procured, via political interference, a prosecution of me using the notorious “bad law” Communications Act 2002, s.127. As to the former, see the articles posted above. As to my 2016 disbarment, see below:

Exactly. I support Allison Pearson’s free speech, but she and her type, msm scribblers etc, mouthpieces of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby, do not support mine. I therefore claim the moral high ground.

I would not have said this even 10 years ago, but the fact is that most of the police in the UK are now idiots, easily bamboozled by the Jewish lobby in particular. Also brainwashed by “diversity” and “inclusion” bs, imbibed during mandated “courses”.

In Allison Pearson’s case, she is (as one would expect from a UK msm scribbler) pro-Jewish lobby, so her “crime” or “non-crime hate offence” seems to have been based on the “diversity” nonsense.

Can one do better than recall the words of Voltaire over two centuries ago, and surely unnecessary for me to quote to my erudite readership…

Obvious East European Gypsy types, but say that to the police and you, not they, will probably be threatened with arrest by the poundshop Stasi

The Jewish/Israel lobby is behind most of the attack on free speech in the UK, the same lobby that Allison Pearson seems to support. Poetic justice? Either you have freedom of expression or you do not.

Oh, so Julia Hartley-Brewer is now all for free speech, as is her employer, the “no-one watches” Talk TV owned by the ancient cuckold Rupert Murdoch.

I have never seen anything from Julia Loudmouth supporting my free speech rights over the past decade.

As for Talk TV, when I was convicted in 2023, and sentenced in March 2024, for having published the truth, Talk TV’s Twitter/X account simply regurgitated the bs fed to its “journalists” by the Jewish lobby and suborned Clown Prosecution Service.

Talk TV managed to get basic facts wrong, too; they even said, on their Twitter account and website, that I had been “jailed“!

Another scandal emerging on the impact of uncontrolled mass immigration on our way of life… From my questioning of the Ministry of Justice – slowly, we are getting real answers. Between April 2018 and March 2022, there were 38,868 reoffences from adult foreign nationals. Within that, there were 11,890 reoffenders. Why are these criminals not immediately deported? If our weak establishment had the guts to do what is needed to be done and deport these miscreants, then almost 40,000 crimes would have been prevented. Pathetic and spineless politicians have failed this country. Foreign criminals should be deported. No excuses.

Dog-free areas? How about creating **g-free areas?

Court news

https://www.cps.gov.uk/wessex/news/tiktoker-sentenced-grossly-offensive-antisemitic-posts

A TikTok user who continually posted antisemitic content to her thousands of followers has today been sentenced.

Fiona Ryan, 40, regularly shared her antisemitic views to both TikTok and X (formerly known as Twitter), which includes comparing Israeli citizens to Nazis and made jokes about the Holocaust.

  • Ryan was sentenced to 12 weeks imprisonment suspended for 18 months, and eight weeks imprisonment suspended for 18 months respectively, to run concurrently.
  • Ryan was also ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £154, costs of £650 and a requirement to attend up to 20-day rehabilitation.”

[CPS Press release]

So the “fat lady” sang (again) (at Wessex CPS HQ).

What an incredible waste of public resources. Will Allison Pearson or Julia Hartley-Loudmouth have anything to say about the latest assault on freedom of expression? I doubt it.

The Chief of the SIS/MI6 said, just a few days ago, that “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) has “the will to fight“. Ha. Most Ukrainians are trying to avoid or evade the draft (and we could save many billions in two ways— 1. by taking away Zelensky’s ricebowl; 2. by cutting back severely the huge amounts wasted on a “Secret Intelligence Service” that seems to accomplish nothing much of the time.

[note: before I could publish, the tweet above was either unpublished or (more likely) censored in some way. The video clip showed the thugs of the Kiev regime chasing a “draft-dodger” (a person who, wisely, decided not to go easily to his death on the front-lines, fighting for Zelensky’s dictatorship].

The Labour MPs are just as bad as the “Conservative” rabble. Craven venal nobodies.

Starmer deserves [REDACTED]…

In Tottenham Court Road. How wonderfully “diverse” London now is. It could only be more “diverse” if it were in a total state of socio-economic collapse and disorder, with non-white, machete-wielding mobs rampaging. When will that be? 2044? 2034? Next year?

Someone with hundreds or thousands of millions wants more than money; he wants power and influence. Whole cabals may be the same. Look at Twitter/X. Until Elon Musk bought it (I do not know the situation since then), it only made a profit in one quarter of one year, out of about 60 such quarters. Profit was obviously not the motivation.

The “Conservative” rabble had to go, and that was the reason people voted to bin them. However, it has to be repeated that, of every 20 eligible voters, only 4 voted Labour.

Starmer-Labour has no real or genuine mandate.

In fact, a very high proportion of UK prisoners who are “British” nationals are also non-white, a fact which I noticed when I started at the Bar over 30 years ago. White British people are probably no more than half of the UK prison population, if that, despite comprising, still, maybe 80% of the UK population as a whole.

The pro-Kamala Harris vote is simple: non-whites who will vote for her because she is non-white (part-Jamaican, part-Tamil Indian), and women who will vote for her because she is a woman.

Democracy at its least-logical, least-valid.

Behind it all, huge amounts of money, and (of course) “the usual suspects”…

In my last decade or so, or “time of troubles”, I have had the unsought opportunity to assess at first-hand the abilities and attitudes of what now passes for a “police force” in England. Unimpressive. Semi-educated young (mostly young) men and women, their little heads full of “diversity” and “anti-racism” nonsense, purporting to lay down the law (which they plainly often do not even know or understand), and acting, pathetically, as a kind of poundshop Stasi.

As far as doing their proper job is concerned, the police in the UK are almost useless. On the two occasions over the past 15 years when I have been the victim of acquisitive crime (once when a whole wheel was stolen from my car, another time when a previous car was broken into and the door almost wrenched off), the police did nothing but record the incident and give me a number for my insurers, not even when (in relation to the wheel theft) I passed on, online, very cogent evidence as to the likely “type” and almost exact location of the likely perpetrators.

Useless. Not worth their salt.

Exactly.

Brava! to her.

Capitalism” is too broad. Call it “finance-capitalism”. When I was 20, I did not think there was any real difference. I am 68 now, as of a week or so ago, so older and, dare I say, wiser.

…and if that were to happen, the Jewish “human rights” lawyers and their dupes, in the UK, will still be quibbling and saying that that is not, technically, “genocide”…

Think of Starmer. Not a Jew, but a former supposed “human rights” specialist married to a Jewish or part-Jewish woman; he, more recently, thought it perfectly acceptable for the (Israeli) Jews to cut off water to the people of Gaza, including the civilian population .

Good grief. I have used that airport myself a couple of times.

Yvette Cooper (yet another Labour Friends of Israel member) is repeatedly dishonest. In the 2005-2010 Parliament, she and her husband, Ed Balls, were major expenses cheats and fraudsters.

Having said that, I sometimes muse as to whether treacherous evildoers such as Yvette Cooper have really thought through the consequences of what amounts to the treason of swamping the UK with ever-greater numbers of backward people from all over the world. I mean, as to what the socio-political situation here might be like in 5, 10, 20, 50 years. If they have, then their evil is even more culpable.

The Bar Standards Board is infected and (((infested))): see what happened to me from 2014 onwards:

…and the Bar itself is now a bad joke, filled with semi-literate idiots who know nothing, and are terribly afraid of standing up to the “woke” police state. They put their financial interests first.

(((The usual suspects))) have been behind most of the Bar’s slide into irrelevance and falling prestige.

Covid was without doubt a risk to some, but it’s danger was blown out of proportion, and in many cases, figures were inflated. it had a detrimental effect on the economy and the mental health of many, probably far surpassing the true dangers of the virus itself. governments were just winging it with many poorly thought out and unneeded decisions, and with heavy implementation of censorship taken up to silence those that opposed it, even though our own governments didn’t follow their own rules, of which they were forcing the entire country to follow. I can only hope I never see someone being paid to drive around blaring a “please stay inside” pre-recorded message out of a megaphone. This was however short term bullshit that we got out of. As for the metaphorical virus that we speak of; it will be far more pervasive, detrimental and long lasting to our country and the things that keep it ticking along. People are making decisions for our country based on a buzzword pissing match, and those that oppose it are being ever more censored, sacked, arrested or whatever else.

For “regulators“, read “censors“, “snoopers“, “Stasi” etc.

Typical. Still, “always look on the bright side of life“— at least the Untermensch now has to pick up litter in Bristol for 150 hours, probably the only good he has ever done for the British people since he has been here (whether born here or not).

1.BREAKING!!!! 19 year old woman visited by anti terrorist unit and @MerseyPolice yesterday. They asked her about her politics, if she is right wing, and why she had an ‘Anglo Saxon’ replica helmet in the house. They refused to say what she was accused of… They confiscated property… (a replica decorative sword hanging on her parents wall) and advised her: “Bite your tongue before talking on line.” @SpeechUnion @CollegeofPolice.”

The sheer cheek of the plods in question! Playing their “counter-terrorism” games. Put them back into uniform and get them patrolling “Murkyside’s” increasingly-dangerous streets.

Anyone who thinks that the above are not the tactics of a police state, even if —so far— a “poundshop” one, has not been paying attention.

The police (especially those ignorant of most relevant political and historical matters, and even relevant law, which means the vast majority) have no right and no business threatening the free speech of the people.

Incidentally, that Twitter/X account is here: https://x.com/WeAreFairCop.

My own experiences are, in part, recounted here below:

Starmer, Yvette Cooper etc have to go.

Never forget that, out of every 20 eligible voters, and out of every 12 voters who voted, only 4 voted Labour at GE 2024 (and many of those “Labour” voters only did so in order to bin the “Conservative” misgovernment of the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak).

That is the slippery slope down which a society slides when it says “you can have free speech but not hate speech“— and guess (((which))) element is at the forefront of shutting down freedom of expression in our country? That’s right…”them”.

Without “‘dislike, ill feeling, and antagonism” as options, there remains only abject subservience to the police state, all “happy” shiny little mixed-race or pro-racemixing people, and all applauding the pseudo-liberal State and multikulti society. Intellectual discrimination is central to a progressive (in the real sense) society, a society about to rationally choose its path to the future.

Yvette Cooper, a member of Labour Friends of Israel, is evil, as well as having been an expenses fraudster and freeloader who has never been punished. She must be removed from any position of power.

The young woman whose home was invaded by the “Murkyside” poundland Stasi “counter-terror” bad jokes has tweeted:

In an ideal world, every single one of those poundland Stasi police would themselves have their homes violated, and possessions confiscated, and members of their families questioned and alarmed. Maybe one day…

I saw a few minutes of the structured “discussion” on Sky News with Sir Richard Moore, Chief of SIS/MI6 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Moore_(diplomat)] and William Burns, Director of the CIA [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_J._Burns_(diplomat)].

My impressions (I did not watch the whole discussion): the CIA Director seemed more thoughtful, far more considered, and far less less gung-ho than the SIS Chief, who seemed shallow in his judgments. As in? Well, as in “the Ukrainians have the will to continue fighting“. Really? Is that why the Kiev regime has to employ press-gangs to recruit young-ish men? Is that why the Kiev regime is running out of soldiers willing to fight?

It seemed to me that the CIA Director was quite interested in finding a negotiated solution in Ukraine, whereas the SIS Chief seemed a far smaller figure altogether, foolishly referring to the Kiev regime as “our Ukrainian friends“. They are not our “friends” at all, but supplicants and beggars, arrogant demanding beggars at that.

The UK has virtually no common history with Ukraine at all, and of course Ukraine only became a state (and then, only in name) 30 years ago. Now a brutal, shambolic dictatorship.

Incidentally,

In 2008, Burns wrote to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice: “Ukrainian entry into NATO is the brightest of all redlines for the Russian elite (not just Putin). In more than two and a half years of conversations with key Russian players, from knuckle-draggers in the dark recesses of the Kremlin to Putin’s sharpest liberal critics, I have yet to find anyone who views Ukraine in NATO as anything other than a direct challenge to Russian interests.”[17]

[Wikipedia].

Pity that Burns is not Chief of SIS! Still, there it is…

What bs is Richard Moore putting out to the public (and to Government? Or is he telling the British Government what it wants to hear, as happened with one of his predecessors before the invasion of Iraq?), about how “Ukraine” (the regime in Kiev) is fighting on, and even “winning” (does he go that far?—maybe not), the fact is that Russian forces are advancing, and will continue to advance, at present mainly in the Donbass region, then across all Eastern Ukraine, either this year or in 2025.

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

Saturday quiz

This week 6/10, trumping the 3/10 scored by political journalist John Rentoul. I did not know the answers to questions 5, 6, 8, and 9.

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13774951/Terror-Germany-Knifeman-dead-stabbing-random-passersby-neck-diversity-festival-armed-police-hunt-killer.html

A knifeman has left several people dead after stabbing random passersby in the neck in a horrific ‘terror attack’ at a diversity festival in Germany.

The ‘Festival of Diversity,’ marking the city’s 650th anniversary, began on Friday and was supposed to run through Sunday, with 80,000 people expected.

[Daily Mail]

The nationality of the killer is not known as yet. Chances are that he is from the Middle East, South Asia, or Africa.

When was the last time a German or an Englishman went to, say, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen or similar ghastly country, attended a “diversity” festival, and stabbed random strangers who were keen to promote a multikulti society and were —no doubt— “refugees welcome” dimwits? Answer— never.

For one thing, the denizens of those countries do not want a “multicultural society” (it’s their way or the highway); they have no “diversity” or similar festivals. Secondly, Europeans just do not behave like that.

Wake up, Europe…for God’s sake.

We do not want these backward hordes on our continent.

I find myself wondering whether the surviving German attendees of the “diversity festival” have now come to a different point of view, as compared to a couple of days ago.

Having said all that, there are probably now more people stabbed to death in the UK, indeed in London alone, every day, and mostly, in fact almost entirely, by non-whites.

If a car crashes, and 3 or 4 people are killed, the matter will not be reported in the national Press unless there are newsworthy aspects. If, however, a light plane crashes in a field, killing 3 or 4 people, that is almost always reported in national newspapers, and maybe even on national TV.

Scientists are calling for a new analysis of the Shroud of Turin amid a seemingly growing body of evidence that challenges the idea it’s a fake.

[Daily Mail]

Interesting. Of course, the Roman Catholic Church has never explicitly said that the Shroud is directly connected to the Crucifixion; the phrase used is that the Shroud is “an aid to faith.”

Kennedy’s decision to withdraw from the swing states in favor of Trump completely changes the election landscape. After all, it is the situation in these states that will decide the fate of the presidential election. Kamala was ahead of Trump in the polls there by 1-3 percent almost everywhere. But now Kennedy’s electorate will go over to the former president, and that’s 5-6 percent. The Democrats are in trouble.

I do not know enough about the nitty-gritty of the American electoral landscape to know whether this is the game-changer for Trump that is claimed, or not. Will Kennedy’s move favour Trump, or will his intending voters prefer Kamala Harris, or will that group be split? I just do not know.

On the face of it, it might favour Trump (and I really cannot see why anyone would vote for Kamala Harris as potential head of state and government, though that is not quite true— there are huge numbers of American blacks who will vote for her just because she is non-white, as there are huge numbers of women who will vote for her merely because she is a woman).

So, unless Trump can prevail, the USA will be “led” by a “woke” joke woman with no European cultural or ethnic background, backed up by the above clown. What could go wrong? I suppose that they would be just figureheads, though, and the USA would be ruled by some mixture of “Deep State” insiders from Langley, the Pentagon, and the Bohemian Grove.

Diary Blog, 20 August 2024, including some more thoughts about and around the recent Mark Lewis/Mandy Blumenthal/Sabrina Miller attempted scam at the Edinburgh Fringe

Seems that Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal have now left the Edinburgh Fringe, where they tried to have an American black comedian “cancelled” and even arrested, but failed, themselves being laughed and booed out of the theatre where they had staged an incident, no doubt partly so that they would later be able to claim some kind of substantial monetary “compensation”, as they had done before, notably in relation to Kuwait Airways. https://www.thejc.com/news/kuwait-airways-pays-damages-to-woman-barred-from-buying-ticket-at-heathrow-for-being-israeli-c1vcjc8o.

Incidentally, read that Jewish Chronicle report. It says that Mandy Blumenthal filmed herself trying to buy the ticket. What normal passenger does that? Anyway, it is clear that (((other persons))) were doing the filming and, indeed, doing so covertly. She, despite being a UK passport-holder, deliberately used her other, Israeli, passport, so that she could make a fake claim, and so make money out of the refusal to accept her Israeli passport.

Note how, in the full video (shown in that Jewish Chronicle report) she also makes a false claim that the poor ticket sales fellow is “racially abusing” her. Seems to be an ingrained trait.

So Mandy Blumenthal received “substantial damages“…I wonder. £10,000? £20,000? More?

Of course the lawyers involved on her side all eventually received fat fees too, because Kuwait Airways also agreed to pay her “full” legal costs.

A total scam. At least this time they were caught out.

As I noted yesterday, I was quite surprised to see how immobile Lewis now is (by reason of multiple sclerosis). I might feel sorry for almost anyone else who is so afflicted physically (it may also affect him mentally, he being or having been on powerful drugs) but Lewis has been co-ordinating persecution of me by the Jew-Zionist lobby in the UK for about 12 years now, so any reserves of compassion I may have will be directed to others, others frankly more worthy.

Lewis is or was a “director” of “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”], which was behind the complaint about me to the Bar Standards Board [BSB], in 2014, which resulted in my wrongful and actually unlawful disbarment in late 2016 (8+ years after I had ceased active practice at the Bar). A typically malicious political stunt. See below:

Simultaneously, Lewis was and still is a leading light of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], a Jew-Zionist organization so unpleasant that other Jewish and Zionist organizations avoid it, as was seen not long ago when its “chief executive”, Gideon Falter, tried to create another “antisemitism” scandal in Central London: see https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/apr/22/met-officer-antisemitism-campaigner-gideon-falter-longer-video-sky-news.

https://www.theguardian.com/news/2024/apr/26/who-is-the-caa-gideon-falter-met-police-openly-jewish-antisemitism-row

longer version of the clip released later shows the officer explaining to Falter that his approach was informed by the knowledge he had already deliberately walked out into the middle of the march and was therefore “looking to try and antagonise this”.

John Mann, the government’s antisemitism tsar, said Falter had been “quite explicit” about his intentions at the protest. “There’s no ambiguity in what he’s doing,” he told the BBC, saying he had been blocked by the CAA on the social media platform X and they were “not playing it straight”.

[Guardian]

Falter crowed mightily in the “sympathetic” sections of the (((Press))) and (((TV))) after my 2016 disbarment. After his 2024 Central London stunt failed, even quite vociferously pro-Israel individuals, such as David Aaronovitch (himself actually only half-Jewish, despite the name) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Aaronovitch], heavily criticized Falter and the “CAA”:

Lewis has been making, with others, malicious behind-the-scenes attempts, since 2012, to have me investigated and even charged by the police. I am aware of some of the details, incidentally. In fact, he was working, partly, in conjunction with an equally-malicious “CAA” Israel fanatic, Stephen Silverman (“CAA” “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”), and others (some now defunct) for years, trying to “get” me.

Several times over the past decade, police constables (in their new role as a poundshop Stasi), or those PCSO play-police (ditto), have come to my door, but I have never been arrested by any of them (the PCSOs have no specific power of arrest anyway).

I was “invited” (required) to attend an interview a couple of times: see, e.g.

As readers can see, that attempt to have me charged failed.

The “CAA” sub-terrorists then, in 2017-2018, pressured the then Director of Public Prosecutions and the then Attorney-General to have me charged with “incitement to racial hatred”, a charge which requires the assent of the A-G. No dice.

The “CAA” and its cohorts had already pressured (pre-Elon Musk) Twitter to have my popular Twitter account shut down. It was shut down (in 2018) but, silver-lining time, the deletion of the Twitter account meant that the “Clown” Prosecution Service could not acquire the evidence to ground any such proposed “racial incitement” charge. The “CAA” idiots had shot themselves in the foot.

Incidentally, the ear of the then DPP was bent by Israel-lobby fanatic and then MP, Ian Austin, who wrote demanding my prosecution.

Now in the House of Lords, Austin once or twice tweeted that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized.

One of the few who actually supported Austin publicly was none other than Bristol University Jewish student girl Sabrina Miller, now scribbling fake news at the Daily Mail, fake news such as the recent contrived tale of the “victimized Israeli couple, Shimon and Talia“, who however were then unmasked as being Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal. Small world…

That did not stop Silverman and Lewis (etc), though.

The former made a completely false accusation against me in 2021, alleging that I had “racially-abused” him, something that was not only false, but in fact impossible, because I did not know his address or telephone number, had never seen him in person, and had no Twitter account (and had never once written, posted, or spoken to him). In fact, there was simply no evidence against me at all, but the suborned or compliant police of two counties still “invited” (required) me to an interview under caution: see

I still do not understand why Silverman was not charged with “wasting police time” or why he has also never been charged with the far more serious (indictable) offence of (attempted) perversion of the course of justice (there is actually no distinction). He is plainly guilty, having made a provably false criminal accusation against me. I suppose that “they” just get a free pass much of the time.

An account of my free speech trial last year (under the notoriously bad law of the Communications Act 2003, s.127, recommended for repeal by the Law Commission), my prosecution having been once again instigated by the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (Silverman):

Incidentally, Silverman actually turned up to gloat on both my day of trial in November 2023, and my days (there was an adjournment of a week or two) of sentencing in March 2024. He scuttled off pretty quickly after the sentence was handed down, and later tweeted (sub nom “CAA”) at how disgusting it was that I was not given a harsher sentence.

The aftermath:

Some other blog posts, going back about 6 years, about Mark Lewis:

Incidentally Lewis’s behaviour towards his second wife, one-time minor “celebrity”, Caroline Feraday, apparently verged on —and arguably was— abusive. I don’t know about his first wife in detail, but both divorced him, in Caroline Feraday’s case after only a year. Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal are married now.

Almost exactly what not only is my view but was my view expressed on the blog long before GE 2024, though I disagree that the Con misgovernment was the lesser evil. Pretty much the same in most respects. People did not want fake Labour, Starmer-Labour, but they wanted to bin the fake “Conservatives” more.

As said repeatedly (and it needs to be repeated), Starmer-Labour has no real mandate because, regardless of the large number of seats bequeathed by a ridiculous electoral system, only 4 out of every 12 voters that voted, voted Labour; indeed, only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters, because only 12 people out of every 20 eligible voters actually voted.

Even on the conservative basis of 4 out of 12 (33.7%), Labour really has no mandate to do all sorts of absurdly dictatorial things.

Well, “every reaction posits an opposite and equal reaction“, said Newton.

To put it another way, sow the wind and you will reap the whirlwind…and that applies not only to medics.

We’ll resolve nothing if we continue to let people feel comfortable with screaming racism, transphobia, climate denial, etc, at perfectly reasonable cultural questions. Make no mistake – we’re heading for crisis. The kind that unfolds with breathtaking speed, just after the point of no return. The time to be counted is now. Relying on others call out the BS (and take the flak) isn’t an option. Not anymore. You can’t nod along at the solution if you’re part of the problem.” Vice-versa, surely, that last?

In a Spoons in Wakefield. These reminders NOT to be absolute Knuckle-dragging morons – we never needed them years ago. This is what you get when nobody cares – and when everybody is encouraged to hate Britain. And when society is purposely fragmented by the purveyors of mass immigration and bad education.”

Well, the way things are going in the UK, you never know when an extraction might be required…

Late thought

All part of the “blacks with everything” propaganda. Been going on for years now. Actual blacks are “only” about 4% of the UK population; even if you add in “browns” and others, the white (formerly known as English) population of the UK is still as much as 80% of the UK population, yet almost all the new faces on TV news and discussion shows are now non-white. A deliberate virtual “white genocide”.

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

Morning music

[Knightsbridge, 1930s]

Saturday quiz

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

Talking point

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jenrick’s provenance interests me. It also disquiets.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The video is worth watching, though.

Further talking points

Good grief.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dead men walking looting.

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

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

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

Life in remote Western Siberia

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

The old lady is cooking (I think) manti [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manti_(food)] or pelmeni [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelmeni], foods quite similar inter se, and not dissimilar to ravioli. Cuisine is not really my forte, so I had better say no more. As for what she is frying, maybe cubes of bacon, maybe pork fat.

The old man is seen mending his fishing traps (there is a nearby small river).

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

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

As someone once said of the Louisiana Cajuns living in and around the Mississippi Delta, “when the rest of the world is starving, these people will still be eating.”

Starmer-Labour is clueless. The time for a National Wealth Fund would have been in the 1970s and onward, using North Sea Oil revenues, but the System parties gave most of the benefit to oil companies and foreign speculators.

Again, clueless. Mad. Crazed. Would-be dictator Yvette Cooper, who is closer to her evil dream than ever before, is even more of a police-statist than Starmer. She must be stopped. Starmer must be stopped.

Where is real journalism in this country?

[“British” journalism]

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

This government has no real popular mandate.

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

That sort of thing is being driven by relatively small groups within each occupation, profession, and vocation.

I cannot say anything directly on the blog because we now have so little free speech in the UK (by reason, indeed, of those same “small groups”), so I shall just say “are you thinking what I am thinking?“…

This is becoming like a scaled down and ridiculous copy of Stalin’s purges. As Marx noted, first time— tragedy, but second time— farce [Karl Marx, The 18th Brumaire of Louis Napoleon].

Of course, that poor fellow quite wrongfully sentenced to 8 weeks in prison, will not see the (unfunny) joke, even though his 8 weeks will in the end be something like 3 (he will be out after 40% of the headline tariff).

https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24513379.sellafield-worker-jailed-sharing-offensive-facebook-posts/

In my opinion, the defendant should have pleaded not guilty. Unfortunately, he seems to have pleaded guilty (perhaps on advice of his solicitor) to get a notional sentence reduction from 12 to 8 weeks.

See another recent case in the same area: https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24506682.maryport-man-jailed-facebook-post-police-bid-stop-disorder/

Starmer’s thoroughly wicked and unconstitutional suggestion (almost a demand, at least an expressed presumption) that anyone pleading not guilty to any charge arising —however peripherally— out of the recent protests) would be remanded in custody until trial (which these days might be months or even a year later) was a direct attack on the rule of law. Plainly intimidatory, and designed to make defendants cave and plead guilty.

The latest I heard, something like 700 arrests have been made. How many charges, I do not know.

The truth, of course, is now no defence, as I understood during my own free speech trial and sentencing (trial November 2023, sentencing March 2024: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/16/diary-blog-16-march-2024/

Compare those sentences of imprisonment merely for giving out a few online opinions (though the Court, “Clown” Prosecution Service and politicized police all try to make the “offences” seem far worse) with those handed down for real crimes committed in the same area, such as this one:

https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24509815.shoplifter-denies-threatening-stab-carlisle-co-op-manager/

A thief told the manager of a Carlisle Co-op store who had caught him stealing alcohol that he would return and “stab him” if he called the police, magistrates heard.

The defence lawyer representing prolific offender Elijah Ali, 34, told the city’s Rickergate court that the defendant denied making the threat. He did, however, plead guilty to the theft and to using threatening behaviour.

Prosecutor George Shelley outlined the facts.

He said the defendant and a second unknown male walked into the Central Avenue branch of Co-op at around 9.30pm on August 5 and began brazenly stealing alcohol from the shelves, picking up “numerous” bottles of booze and putting them in Ali’s jacket.

This prompted the store’s manager to make a 999 call, reporting that a theft was in progress and requesting urgent help.

The second male left the store but as he left, said Mr Shelley, Ali told the store manager: “If you call the police, I’m going to come back and stab you. That placed [the manager] in a state of fear.”

Ali’s record comprises 98 previous offences, 25 of them thefts and kindred crimes. “He’s a prolific offender,” said Mr Shelley.

Magistrates imposed a £200 fine and told Ali to pay the Co-op compensation of £200 as well as £85 costs and a surcharge.

So a few online comments about a news item results in immediate imprisonment, but for a “prolific thief” (called Ali) with 98 previous convictions, and who threatened to stab a shop manager, only a minor fine (probably paid off at £5 a week).

Any comment, “Prime Minister”? That’s you, two-tier Keir.

Exactly. Some completely blameless tweets by seemingly blameless middle-aged ladies, and which I reposted on the blog, are now gone completely (including from the blog, because I usually embed them). The ladies in question seem to have been frightened into deleting not only the (entirely lawful) tweets but also their Twitter/X account(s).

“Two-tier Keir” is a hateful bastard. Yvette Cooper is no better. They are conspirators, trying to impose a “woke” multikulti police state upon this country.

Or “I am an honest citizen and fully support Comrade Stalin! Starmer!” [tweeter “Chris Faux”, or his type, in another setting].

2,200 Twitter/X users have apparently seen that tweet of “Chris Faux”. How many have “liked” it? 4… How many have retweeted it? Only 1…

Today’s authoritarianism knows no boundaries. London’s Metropolitan Police Chief just told the world that he will be coming after anyone who violates British social media censorship rules with international extradition requests – to include American citizens.

Simultaneously, the EU’s Censorship “Kommisar” Thierry Breton just told Elon Musk he can’t allow EU citizens to witness tonight’s interview with President Trump.

The elites who want to decide what is permissible to read and watch justify their censorship by labeling dissenting opinions as “misinformation,” “hate speech,” “far right,” or “extremist.”

During the lockdowns, MI-6 designated me and other health freedom activists as potential “terrorists.” But the label applies more closely to themselves, as they try to scare us into submission again with bird flu hoaxes, debt-fueled financial collapse, and ever more dangerous imperial wars of choice.

This is definitely a wake-up call, America. It’s time to reclaim our government. If not in America, the paragon of freedom, then where? https://zerohedge.com/political/london-calling-police-chief-threatens-arrest-people-around-world-online-speech.

[Robert F. Kennedy jnr; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_F._Kennedy_Jr]

His uncle, President John F. Kennedy, once said this:

Something about which Britain’s new “Labour” government (“elected” by only 20% of all eligible voters and a mere 33.7% of those who voted) might care to think.

The regime of two-tier Keir again.

Don’t stop what you are doing, Elon Musk. Hit Starmer hard.

The point is that the UK’s authoritarian/totalitarian laws and procedures have, in many cases, yes, been in place for some time, but have not been extensively used; in fact used mainly during and after the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic of 2020-2022.

This horrible nonsense has to go.

Bureaucrat-drone-dictator Starmer thinks that, by repressing free speech following the recent protests (and their riotous offshoots), he has somehow “solved” the problem that came across his desk. No. Every one of those recently sentenced, or sitting in some overcrowded jungle prison awaiting trial or sentence, now resents and hates Starmer and also the multikulti police state which he, Yvette Cooper, and Rachel Reeves, now head.

What does Starmer imagine will be happening in 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, with British people scarcely able to make a living, to pay exorbitant rents, to buy houses the cheapest of which cost hundreds of thousands of pounds, or to walk the streets of their own cities safely?

Every day, hundreds, sometimes thousands, of migrant-invaders arrive illegally on our shores. Thousands more, every day, enter at least quasi-“legally”.

Britain is heading for a dystopian conflict never seen before.

Maybe also making “holocaust” “denial” (i.e. examination and historical revision, particularly of events of the 1940s and 1930s) illegal in the UK. Don’t forget that Starmer is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, and that his wife is Jewish.

Don’t forget the others, the ~1,000,000 migrant-invaders that entered “legally” in the past year, or the births to non-European mothers.

I bet that the airlines still flying out of Israel have their flights fully-booked.

Europe should be standing with Russia, for the future of European culture and civilization.

He would have been justified in smacking her in the face, in the circumstances. Not immediately, but by the end of her contrived and sustained confrontation.

Kiev-regime announcement

The Kiev regime has announced that it “is not interested” in hanging on to the little strip of land it recently invaded in the Kursk region of Russia.

Translation: the forces of the Kiev regime only made the incursion so that Zelensky and his cabal could claim to Western mass media that they are “winning”, or at least continuing to fight.

In reality, the Kiev-regime incursion forces, mostly press-ganged and poorly-trained serf-soldiers, have been mainly wiped out, and the rest are —literally— dying to be able to drive back over the border to Ukraine and relative safety.

The Kiev-regime incursion was never sustainable; the territory gained for a day or two, or a week or two, could never have been held.

I am worried, though, for the dim Ukrainian soldiers and their grieving, or soon-to-be-grieving families, and also for the Russian civilian families in the Kursk border region, their lives disrupted by this stupid publicity stunt.

At the same time, the Russian advance in the south-east continues steadily.

Just walked through Huddersfield city centre. Really struck by the starkest of contrasts.

Some older women sat outside a Merrie England cafe (remember ‘em?), trying to enjoy a civilised afternoon tea.

They were surrounded by the stench of weed, people shouting in foreign languages, couples in tracksuits hurling abuse at each other, gangs of lads hanging around, beggars off their faces.

Nothing noteworthy about the scenario – just everyday stuff in yer standard Red Wall town. But I was impressed by the dignity and stoicism of the women. The rest of it almost reduced me to tears.”

[Dr. Philip Kiszely]

I would suggest a few things, but no doubt that would bring the boring police drones to my door once again, as has happened several times in the past decade. They are the footsoldiers of the multikulti “woke” police state now re-energized by Starmer.

Much of urban Britain is now a dustbin.

Why is pathetic Sinn Fein supporting the migration-invasion of Ireland, and certainly not properly opposing it?

Strange. I have read about the increase in alcohol consumption during the “lockdown” nonsense or 2020-2021. I went the other way, almost stopping my relatively-modest consumption.

There have been times in my life when I drank little or nothing, other times when my consumption was quite high. I suppose the latter was true of when I was living in the former Soviet Union, in the Caribbean, and in France, as well as when I was practising at the English Bar (during the years 1992-1996 and 2002-2008).

Now, most days, I drink no alcohol at all. No particular reason predominates. It may be partly a function of increasing age (I shall be 68 next month, ironically on the same day as the birthday of “two-tier Keir” Starmer, though he is six years younger than me).

Another reason is that the wines, especially the red wines, that I once liked, such as Chateau Margaux, are extremely expensive (I suppose they always were, but that I notice it more now), or are hard to source (some Moldavian and Georgian wines).

One kind of booze I do like is what the French term eaux de vie, such as 40%+ Kirsch and Poire Williams etc.

A Central and Eastern European taste too, that I must have picked up somewhere or other, is Slivovitz (plum spirit), which UK Lidl had on sale recently (I bought 2 bottles, 42% alc.), and what the Hungarians call palinka, fruit spirit, which may be distilled from one fruit, or a mixture. Apricot is probably my favourite, though I have not had any for well over 20 years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A1linka; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirsch; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poire_Williams; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slivovitz.

On a hot day, though, beer is often the best drink (apart from water). I used to like (30-40 years ago), Zhiguli beer from Russia, which was at that time sold in the UK, in Selfridges. Czech beer is pretty good, of course, as is some Polish.

When I was living in Turkey for a few months, I liked Tekel beer, made by a State enterprise. It no longer exists, at least in that form.

One type of wine that I liked a lot in the 1980s, and early 1990s, was the kind of white wine produced in Australia at that time, especially heavily-oaked quality Chardonnay. Harder to find now, of the same type. Maybe tastes have changed, and the producers have followed suit..

As I noted on the blog during the “Covid” hysteria, the self-describing “left”, including almost all of the “human rights” tribe, were all in favour of more severe “lockdowns”, more severe penalties, dissidents and people ignoring the “Covid” hysteria to have all civil rights taken away, deprived of all medical treatment, even when entirely unconnected to “the virus” etc.

Indeed, the self-describing “left” has lost of of its former ideology and direction, and seems to exist purely to cheer on the right labels (“Covid”, “Ukraine”, “BLM”, “trans”-whatever) and of course “Labour”, despite Labour (also) having lost all or 99% of its former ethos. That, and to “deplatform” from everywhere possible any people who are labelled derogatively by them.

Professor Tettenborn is someone I met a couple of times in Exeter circa 2002-2003. He was at that time the professor at the law faculty of Exeter University. I was in a small set of barristers (now very much larger and, under another name, the largest in the South West outside Bristol; the former head of my old set is now a Circuit Judge).

I sat with Professor Tettenborn and another as a notional “Lord Justice of Appeal” at a moot competition held in the Guildhall at Exeter in mid-2002. My only day as a Lord Justice of Appeal, or indeed any sort of judge.

Incidentally, the winner of the moot (out of three student contenders) was a young Anglo-Armenian who had engaged in some sharp practice during the competition. We three “Lords Justices of Appeal” discussed disqualifying him, but in the end relented. As a student advocate, he was head and shoulders above the other two students, and we thought that that had to be recognized.

A few years later, as a young barrister, the same person got into trouble over allegations of sex harassment (not in my own Chambers but another set), I heard. Not sure whether that went to the Bar Standards Board (I think it did), but the person in question is still, I believe, at the Bar and still based in Exeter; I think that he was also, quite a few years ago, an unsuccessful Conservative candidate for MP at Exeter.

All a long time ago now.

Professor Tettenborn also made a very cogent case at the Law Commission inquiry as to whether the very bad law known as Communications Act 2003, s.127, should be repealed. That was what was recommended, but the section has so far not been repealed, and is regularly misused either by the police/CPS or by the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.

Ironic. I myself was noted at the end of that Law Commission report as having been a contributor, yet was myself later a victim of that same bad law: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/16/diary-blog-16-march-2024/.

I hope that the UK police and “Clown” Prosecution Service are paying attention.

The evil in Yvette Cooper is patent. It cannot be concealed.

Expenses cheat. Money-grubber. Pro-mass-immigration. Dishonest. Hypocrite. Member of Labour Friends of Israel. Hostile to free speech. Would-be dictator. I hate everything about Yvette Cooper.

That is the sort of thing that happens when the population of a country only takes interest in rubbish such as spectator team sports, the Olympics, similar mass-oriented TV programming etc, and abdicates its citizen-responsibilities, leaving the field to NWO/ZOG puppets posing as “mainstream” politicians. The UK is much the same, as is the USA.

Typical “British” mainstream media…”Edinburgh man“…rather than “non-European untermensch just off the boat“…

The migration invasion continues unabated

https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20240812-more-than-700-migrants-cross-channel-to-britain-in-single-day

“More than 700 migrants cross the Channel to Britain in a single day.

[France 24]

700. In a single day. So 700 migrant-invaders, all of which will now “have to be” sheltered, fed, given medical services, provided with cash etc. Call it £20,000 or more each per year, indefinitely. Then add costs of policing, courts, prison etc once some (if only a minority; so be it) start criminal activity. £30,000+ each per year. Overall, in conservative terms, Between £15M and £25M a year. That’s for ONE DAY’S CONTINGENT…

£25M that will now not be spent on British people, for British people’s health, welfare, transport, education, future.

I hate the traitors who enable this, from Starmer and Yvette Cooper (and most other Labour, LibDem and Con MPs) to the narcissistic, smug, allegedly or self-regardingly “well-meaning” idiots who hold up “refugees welcome” signs, tweet virtue-signalling nonsense, or oppose British people protesting about the evil.

I may not agree with everything Katie Hopkins says, and am not quite at one with her ideologically, but she is right about at least some of the big things.

Thankfully, the ridiculous Schauspiel for the masses called “the Olympics” largely passed me by (as usual), apart from my having seen video clips and photos of the “Satanic” (?) opening ceremony.

Of course, the “British” msm went crazy because the supposedly Brit team called “Team GB” won a few meaningless medals. Yawn.

The unlucky Ukrainian soldiers used in the Kursk incursion are, like all the Kiev-regime soldiery, being used by Zelensky’s evil regime as cannon-fodder. Dispensable. Many were press-ganged into service. Few if any now are volunteers.

As blogged previously, even were the Kiev regime forces to reach Kursk (city), the centre of the region, their extended lines would be vulnerable to both air (including missile) attack and also to flank attacks by armour and infantry. I also doubt whether the Kiev-regime forces can resupply an extended line of incursion for very long.

So far, it looks as though the forces of the Kiev regime have penetrated to a depth of about 20 miles from the border line.

The Kursk offensive comes after weeks of Russian advances in the east, where a succession of villages have been captured by the Kremlin’s forces.” [BBC https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crkm08rv5m0o].

Note that, until now, the “free” UK/US msm has not reported even in passing that the Russian forces are achieving victory in the south-east and east of Ukraine.

The Kiev-regime incursion may have reached a depth of about 30 miles in some areas, such as the Lezhinka area noted in the BBC report, but that is still a long way (maybe 50 miles) from the city of Kursk itself.

Kursk (city) is about 327 miles from Moscow.

The world-conquering armoured and other forces of the German Reich faltered amid the huge empty spaces of (even) European Russia in the early 1940s. How much more pointless and unlikely to succeed is this Kiev-regime incursion, with its unwilling and poorly-trained soldiers?

In the end, were Russian forces to have to fall back to Kursk (city), which I feel is highly unlikely anyway, the Russian “stavka” (high command) could use masses of advanced conventional weapons such as thermobaric missiles and bombs to completely annihilate the Kiev-regime advance.

Actually, I feel sorry for the Ukrainian soldiers (and their families), who are mere pawns in the corrupt evil game of the Jew Zelensky and his Kiev cabal.

German expert: The maneuver in Kursk could mark the military end of Ukraine “

An attack on the Kursk area could lead to the military end of Ukraine, because its armed forces are inferior to the Russian army.

The Ukrainian brigades deployed in Donbass are quite worn out and were waiting to be replaced by new forces, which are now used to attack Kursk “, said Gustav Gressel in an interview for “Spiegel”.”

That Graham idiot is a complete Jewish-lobby/Israel lobby puppet, so his idea is not entirely unexpected.

I doubt that many retirement-age American pilots are desperate enough to want to fly for the Kiev regime, though. Even were the pay to be high, so is the chance of coming back to the USA in a body bag (if the pieces can be found). 20 years in the present version of the Gulag Archipelago is also rather uninviting.

I was slightly acquainted in 1996-1997 with a group of civilian American pilots in Kazakhstan, ex-Eastern Airlines, hired to fly the Kazakh President’s Boeing aircraft. Nice fellows, who had been cheated out of their pension in the U.S., but complete fish out of water in the post-Soviet and Russophone environment of Almaty. They could not even say hello or ask for a cup of coffee, and lived an isolated life in a dacha on the edge of town.

I wish I had one!

Eventually, this society will just break under the weight of numbers. Then we’ll see…
