Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 4/10, a score I trumped with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 3, 7, and 10, though I nearly got no.2, and should have also got right no.7 (but did not).
“Almost one-in-three babies born in England and Wales last year were to women born outside the UK.
According to the Office for National Statistics, 31.8 per cent of live births in 2023 were to non-UK born mothers – a slight increase from 30.3 per cent in 2022.
The proportion was also an increase from 26.5 per cent a decade earlier, after passing the quarter mark (25.1 per cent) in 2010.“
[Daily Mail]
That does not even include the vast numbers of non-white children born to mothers (and/or fathers) also non-white but themselves born in England.
The truth is that the majority, indeed probably vast majority, of births in England are now non-white.
The UK has no future, no decent future, if this continues.

One of the most messed-up things I have ever seen is Keir Starmer and David Lammy siding with Israeli Football hooligans. I guess burning a Palestinian flag and shouting Kill The Arabs merits a hug these days. pic.twitter.com/XnqP1KfJnr
Starmer is a national embarrassment. Totally in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby. Same is true of thick-as-two-short-planks “diversity hire” David Lammy. In fact, he is even more of a bad joke.
The #AmsterdamAttack saga has exposed something crucial about the reaction of Starmer and Lammy. They’re not interested in the facts as any serious politician would be.

As mentioned previously on the blog, there is someone carrying the same or similar name to me, and who tweets as “@IanMillard100”. I believe that he is an IT worker at Bath University. His tweets occasionally mirror my views, though usually not.
I have no reason to suppose that this other Ian Millard tweets with any malign intent (i.e. with the intent of passing himself off as me), but I have to admit that it is slightly irritating to think that some people may imagine that those tweets come from me; maybe most people can see that they are from someone else, though.

U.S. Presidential Election
Writing before 0500 hrs (“Smersh Never Sleeps“), and with a number of states yet to declare, it is clear nonetheless that Kamala Harris is not going to win. So it is going to be President Trump. Again.
Now let’s stop the wars in Ukraine (number one priority, because of the risk of a general European war, and even a Russia-NATO nuclear war) and in the Middle East.
The Middle East will require both intensive diplomacy and a far stricter attitude towards Israel. No more “tail wags dog”.
As for Ukraine, the war can be stopped by simply taking away Zelensky’s ricebowl. Without Western money, arms, and ammunition, the Kiev regime will grind to a halt within weeks. Just do it.
“Shetland man’s bond with otter becomes subject of award-winning film.
Documentary about Billy Mail’s connection with orphaned pup Molly airs on National Geographic next week.
National Geographic will be streaming a new documentary about an unlikely bond between a man and an otter in Shetland.
Billy Mail met Molly, a starving pup, in 2021 when he saw her jumping off a pontoon into the sea near his Shetland home. Mail wanted to see how close he could get to her before she fled. But it turned out that Molly had no intention of running away.
She was starving and alone, Mail said. “She had a lack of fear that was really interesting because otters are normally pretty scared. I think it was just desperation. She needed food.”
But even after she regained her strength and was fending for herself, Molly kept visiting the Mails and became a “breath of fresh air” in their lives.”

You know how we are always being told how the UK “needs” so-called “high-skilled” non-whites? Well…
“A drunk doctor headbutted a young waiter after he turned up three hours late for his table and was told the restaurant was closed.
Nganjo Endeley grabbed his 21-year-old victim’s shirt so tightly that he struggled to breathe before fracturing his eye socket with a powerful headbutt. Newcastle Crown Court heard the waiter suffered a “huge amount of pain” and has been left with a visible dent to his forehead, which is too risky to operate on.
The 41-year-old married medic, described in court as a “physically imposing man”, was found guilty of assault after a trial but escaped jail after a judge said refences show he behaved “out of character” that night. The court heard the doctor, of Bowburn, County Durham, has a previous conviction for common assault in 2001 and was cautioned for criminal damage in 2007.
Judge Sarah Mallett sentenced Endeley to two years, suspended for two years, with 250 hours unpaid work and an order to pay £2,000 compensation.“
[Daily Mirror]
Suspended sentence, and a fine which a doctor can pay easily. The judge said that the violence was “out of character“— how so, when the defendant has 2 previous proven criminal incidents on his record, including one assault?

Lest we forget…
Conservative leaders who back Trump should be ashamed. They are abandoning the very values which were once the core of conservatism – betraying the very idea of constitutional government, prudence in policy, and simple decency. And they are also backing a loser… https://t.co/i5EOqHgu68
Rory Stewart [in effect]: “I was wrong but I was really right...”
People such as Rory Stewart can never believe that they are wrong wrong wrong, and that the reason that they are wrong wrong wrong in their predictions about things is because they are wrong wrong wrong ideologically and because they simply do not understand the “ordinary” people anything like as much as they believe they do. Also, they are misled by their own biases.
In short, people such as Rory Stewart, and the (other) msm scribblers and talking heads and System politicos are incapable of thinking objectively. They believe what they want to believe, e.g. re. immigration and/or migration-invasion.
As for Starmer, his weakness in allowing MPs and SpAds to go to the USA to help the Kamala Harris campaign will now lead to some kind of payback from the Trump administration, and no amount of Starmer weaselling will be able to change that.
It's a totally divided country, similar to theirs. A small but influential clique of metropolitans with luxury beliefs that they don't adhere to privately vs. an increasingly angry and marginalised general public.
Kamala Harris thus joins the crowd of failed Presidential candidates, such as Dukakis, who become obscure also-rans.
For me, leaving aside the necessity to stop the drift towards a third world war, the best thing about the Trump victory is seeing all the msm scribblers and talking heads look so horrified and astonished. Rory Stewart is the template. At least he had the courage to appear on TV and —at least sort-of— admit that he was wrong. Most will be trying to forget their wrong predictions and expressed wishes.

Look at that self-describing “Dem strategist” aged 27 (and a half?), one Ally Sammarco. Same type that become SpAds in the UK.

No background, no experience, no ability to think outside the box.
Rory Stewart and Alastair Campbell (the latter of which duo should be punished for his crimes against the peoples of Britain, Iraq and other countries).
The people of Britain dodged a bullet when Stewart’s political career crashed and burned. Napoleon always asked of any general, “is he lucky?” If nothing else, and despite his “silver spoon” upbringing and early life, as a political figure Stewart is the opposite of lucky.

Stray thought about Trump
For me, loyalty is key. I am not so sure that Trump thinks the same way.
Were I in Trump’s shoes, my first action as President of the USA would be to pardon all those convicted in Federal courts for actions supporting me [Trump, that is]. Both the Trump partisans as such, and also the more “social-national” prisoners, whether Trump partisans or not.
Pardon them all. They will then follow you to the ends of the Earth.

When I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews conspired to get me removed, which did eventually happen, in 2018), I asked Bonnie Greer directly and publicly why she considered herself in any way qualified to have been appointed as Deputy Chairman of the British Museum.

She has no academic or other credentials qualifying her to opine on BBC Question Time, yet is asked on over and over again, and was chosen to sit next to Nick Griffin and needle him when he was subjected to a TV lynching in 2009.

Were the members of the Electoral College to disregard the popular vote, and install Kamala Harris (which would be extremely unlikely, for reasons covered in that Wikipedia article, which Anna Soubry seems either not to have read, or not to have understood), the result would be a second civil war.

There is a socio-political and cultural sickness in the UK that will have to be mercilessly rooted out, whether you call it “political correctness”, “woke-ism”, or whatever else. Ausrotten!
So the Starmer/Rachel Reeves Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment has decided to spend (waste) £3 billion on the brutal and shambolic Jew-Zionist regime of Zelensky in Kiev, about 15x what they are going to spend in a doomed attempt to “tackle homelessness” in the UK?
I say “doomed” because, with the huge migration-invasion taking place, homelessness and the overall housing crisis in this country will soon get much much worse.
Facts: about 1,200,000 migrant-invaders are entering the UK annually. About 300,000 leave annually (as well as about 100,000 British people). That means that the population is increasing by at least 800,000 every single year.
Let us assume that 800,000 individuals require about 160,000 dwelling-places (5 per house/flat). At £200,000 per flat/house build-cost, that comes to £32 billion, very roughly 150x what Rachel Reeves has earmarked for “tackling homelessness”.
The migration invasion of the UK means that another 160,000 houses and flats, at a minimum, will be required every single year. Unless the invasion is stopped, and the invaders already here are removed.
Incidentally, Starmer-Labour’s £3 billion a year, due to go to “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime dictatorship), will probably not have to be paid for more than a couple of years. The regime in Kiev will collapse and be rolled over before very long, probably next year.
Incidentally, a very unpleasant individual, a former American junior officer, who was in the U.S. Army for a couple of years at the rank of lieutenant and is now working as an assistant professor at Northumbria University in the UK, was tasteless enough to find the killing of the squirrel funny: see below
Oh, and guess what is the academic specialism of that very nasty (read his tweets) “assistant professor”? The old “holocaust” stuff…
I have noticed before that those in the lower reaches of academia who specialize in “holocaust” “studies” and, risibly, often refer to themselves as “holocaust scholars” (!) tend to be very unpleasant individuals. It is as if their minds have become contaminated.
“BREAKING: A horrific night in Ramallah, in the West Bank. Hundreds of Israeli terrorist settlers launched a brutal attack on the city of Ramallah, setting fire to numerous Palestinian homes and vehicles. After setting Palestinian homes and cars on fire, they moved to the main road connecting Ramallah to other cities, where they targeted Palestinian cars passing by, injuring a woman by hurling stones at her vehicle.”
Even Jew-Zionists are now often appalled by the terror unleashed by Jews in Israel/Palestine. I have noticed that several times recently.
The elephant in the room, though, is that, at root, what those Jewish terrorists are doing is no more and no less what the Jews did in Palestine in and around 1948, when they founded their state on terror, ethnic cleansing, and murder.
A fat Indian woman, caught out being effectively an Israeli agent, is now Shadow Foreign Secretary.
Conservative Friends of Israel member, of course.
Purely a nominal appointment, though. Does anyone seriously expect Kemi Badenoch, a Nigerian woman, to become UK Prime Minister? The idea is actually ludicrous, even after “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.
Incidentally, I wonder whether those “scammers”, “Mark Lewis Lawyer” and his wife Mandy Blumenthal, are awaiting said storm in Israel/Palestine, or have they scuttled back, yet again, to the “antisemitic” Britain they despise and pretended to have fled?
One of the oddities of American “democracy” is that the plebs seriously believe that voting every 4 years for this or that candidate changes things. Really? Clinton, Obama, now Kamala Harris, arguably the least credible yet.
The plebs voting for her because she is a woman, because she is a non-white, because Taylor Swift and Oprah Winfrey endorse her.
Strange. Reminds me of the days, some 48 years ago (1976) when I would buy and read Black Flag, the journal of revolutionary anarchism, sometimes perusing it on the London Underground!
I could say a great deal more, but think that I had better not…
In fact, I read a good deal of “alternative” political literature back then, from Black Flag, NF News and League Review (the journal of the League of St. George, to which I then belonged) to (though far less frequently) Militant and similar literature.

So there it is. The “party formerly known as Conservative” now has a Nigerian woman, married to a banker, as its anointed leader. What a farce.
That contest was between a black (Nigerian) woman, a woman who is a member of Conservative Friends of Israel, on the one side, and a rather unpleasant and corrupt person, member of Conservative Friends of Israel, and married to an American Jewish woman, on the other.
Who really won that contest? Think about it.
Kemi Badenoch is even less (even notionally) “British” than is the egregious “Boris”-idiot. She was born in London, taken within days back to Nigeria, then brought up there and in the USA before returning to the UK at the age of 16.
Has Britain finally gone mad? The Con Party certainly has. “Goodnight Vienna” to it.
Rachel Reeves
“Revealed: Rachel Reeves’s £74k rental income.
Rachel Reeves and her husband are making £74,000 a year in rental income alone, The Telegraph understands.
The Chancellor, who this week hit second home buyers and landlords with a surge in stamp duty costs, is thought to be receiving rent from two properties that adds up to more than £6,000 a month.
It comes after Ms Reeves delivered her first Budget on Wednesday, in which she condemned millions of workers to be poorer by raising National Insurance for their employers.
Landlords and second home owners reacted angrily to Ms Reeves’s maiden Budget, claiming she had put the “final nail in the coffin” for the struggling buy-to-let sector.
The Chancellor, who now lives in Downing Street with her family, lets her former family home – a four-bedroom property in south London – for around £3,200 a month.
While her husband Nicholas Joicey, a senior civil servant, is believed to have let his central London two-bed flat since 2011. It now has a market rental value of nearly £3,000 a month, according to property website Bricks&Logic.
It means the pair, who both have six-figure salaries, make more than four times the average landlord income of £16,500. Their rental income is also twice the average salary of nearly £37,000.
Conservative MP Ben Obese-Jecty said: “Having just announced a deeply unpopular Budget that has caused mortgages to rise, how does the Chancellor justify the £74,000 rental income of her and her husband’s London properties whilst living rent-free in Downing Street as their mortgages are paid for? It’s no wonder she abstained from the most recent vote on the Renters’ Rights Bill.
Ms Reeves earns around £160,000 for her roles as Chancellor and an MP. It means her household income, combined with her husband’s salary of up to £174,999, is more than £400,000.
Earlier this year, as shadow chancellor, Ms Reeves told GB News that checking her bank statement made her “wince” after she found “the money coming in” was “increasingly short of the money going out”.
The Chancellor bought her family home in 2012 with her husband for £599,950. The two co-own the property, according to the Land Registry. The couple’s detached property – which was bought with a mortgage – consists of four bedrooms and two bathrooms, according to Rightmove.
Since Ms Reeves bought it, property listing websites estimate it has gained around £349,000 in value – putting its value today at nearly £950,000.
Nine years ago, Ms Reeves had her parliamentary credit card suspended because she owed more than £4,000 in unauthorised payments. The bill was eventually recouped by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.
Between 2014 and 2022, she also claimed £1,225 on the taxpayer to pay someone else to help file her tax return.“
[Daily Telegraph]
Rachel Reeves also has other investments. She is a Grade A moneygrasper; also a member of Labour Friends of Israel and a trustee of the Jew-Zionist Auschwitz-Birkenau Foundation.
Rachel Reeves and her husband have a joint salary/investment income (including capital growth) of well over a half-million pounds a year, possibly even a million.

BREAKING: Tommy Robinson has been jailed for 18 months after admitting contempt of court by repeating false allegations about a Syrian refugee.@skymartinbrunt has the latest.https://t.co/UAPOY9ekp9
People opposed to Tommy Robinson have said on Twitter/X that “Robinson” has crowdfunded about £100,000 for legal defence, only to plead Guilty. Well, I do not know about that, but the implication seems to be that the crowdfunder was a “scam” or “grift”, because of the Guilty plea.
Well, that last seems wrong to me because, firstly, “legal defence” does not necessarily mean that the defendant is going to plead Not Guilty. Also, much of the expense is incurred prior to trial, though of course that will be more the case when the plea is going to be a Not Guilty.
Having said that, £100,000 (if that is the amount raised) is an absurd amount for what was supposed to be a 2-day trial in the magistrates’ court (at the rebuilt former Marylebone mags, now renamed Westminster mags, it seems, looking at video clips; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westminster_Magistrates%27_Court). I myself appeared there as Counsel once or twice, but about 30 years ago. All human life passes through there…
[former Marylebone Magistrates’ Court, now Westminster Magistrates’ Court]
So anyway, Tommy Robinson has been sentenced to 18 months. 40% of 18 months is around 6-7 months. He will be out again by next May, at latest and, perhaps, not quite £100,000 the richer.
I have often noted on the blog my view of Tommy Robinson, i.e, that he is one aspect of “controlled opposition”, and seems to be pro-Israel, though that may or may not be a tactic to get the Jewish lobby off his back, as with Trump (arguende).
Still, the movement around Tommy Robinson has moved the “Overton Window” a bit, as do all political activities. To my mind, “Robinson” has nothing to offer the British people ideologically or otherwise, but, as with Reform UK, that “Window” has been moved, continues to move, and may (despite the “controlled opposition” or “steam valve” aspects) make it easier for a real social-national movement to emerge and capture hearts and minds, if the British people continue to be let down and frustrated.
…and that is even more true of the real British population. Blacks, browns, Arabs, Jews in the UK all have more children, per capita.
The huge and continuing increase in the UK population is almost entirely by reason of mass immigration. Not only that, but immigration by some of the least pleasant, most backward racial or sub-racial peoples of the world. Britain as dustbin.

A senior adviser to Foreign Secretary David Lammy has questioned how much people will mourn the death of Prince William, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
The comment by Ben Judah, the Labour adviser who has been described as ‘Lammy’s brain’, is one of a string of astonishing remarks he has made that the Conservatives have branded republican and ‘anti-British’.
Mr Lammy is facing a mounting whispering campaign within Sir Keir Starmer’s Government over his future as Foreign Secretary.
He has also caused a headache for Sir Keir with past tweets about Donald Trump – who could be just ten days away from returning to the White House – that included describing him as a ‘woman-hating, neo-Nazi sympathising sociopath’ and ‘no friend of Britain’.
One well-placed source said: ‘Lammy will be allowed a bit longer in the job, then someone more savvy such as [Northern Ireland Secretary] Hilary Benn will get the gig.’“
Of course, thick-as-two-short-planks Lammy does need intellectual support: see
A typical scenario, of course.
I have to concede that I agree with the said Judah’s view of the Commonwealth:
“In an article for the Unherd website in 2022, Mr Judah was also dismissive about the Commonwealth – to which Sir Keir has this weekend been paying homage at the summit in Samoa.
Mr Judah wrote about the Queen: ‘We pretended with her and for her that the Commonwealth was real, that there was love and affection for her, or for us, in countries we’d conquered and lost, that we were still a great power.
‘And if not an empire, then she ruled its heir. As she aged, shrinking into her clothes, it became clear there wasn’t enough there, behind the insignia of government, to hold us up in the world.’“
[Daily Mail]
There was, in decades past, a discussion to be had about whether Britain could “punch above its weight”, partly via the Commonwealth. Soft power etc.
One is reminded of how the late great Maurice Oldfield, one-time Chief of SIS/MI6, cultivated foreign students at Oxford or Cambridge likely to become leaders of Commonwealth states. Sometimes, after they had already started on a political-career path. Notably, Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore.
However, such activity is largely the filling in of gaps; a substitute for the real geopolitical power exercised by the British Empire.
As things now are, the Commonwealth seems to be largely a way whereby Britain gives money to those who, increasingly, are rather hostile to the British people whose money they take. Some, such as Mozambique, which never were colonies in the first place, have latched onto British aid by joining the Commonwealth.
Better to cut them all loose now. Take away the ricebowls of the former colonies. Stop playing the convoluted chess defence which Commonwealth diplomacy has become.
Final thought: a picture of Britain in its final (?) decline— a thick-as-two-short-planks and massive-chip-on-shoulder black “diversity hire” Foreign Secretary, “advised” by a Jew far more intelligent than his boss. Which is more inimical to the real interests of the British people?
Where are the (real) British?

“A Ramada Encore chain hotel opened on 10 November 2008, with a 102-bed capacity.[57] It is situated less than ten minutes walk from the Terminal building. However since the closure of the airport it is now used to hold immigrants awaiting decisions on their asylum cases so is no longer open to the public.“
102 beds. A whole, quite large, hotel.
102— not even a third (sometimes, not even a tenth) of the numbers of migrant-invaders arriving on the “small boats” (or ferried in by Border Farce or RNLI boats) every day. That’s not even counting the “legal” immigrants arriving every day (literally thousands every single day).
The political liars, and msm liars, do not even want to seriously confront the issue of the migration invasion (all of it, not just the “small boats” part). Eventually, it will collapse this society, not decades in the future but in a relatively few years. You can already see it happening, gradually but visibly.
Look at that airport hotel. Destined, as it once seemed, to service British people travelling on business or on holiday, but now merely yet another dustbin for rubbish from all over the world.
Britain itself— a dustbin for untermenschen. It makes me both sad and angry.
As for that airport, I have never been there. I was due to fly from Exeter to Doncaster in 2007, and had a ticket, but an unexpected event meant that I had to be a no-show. I believe that the flight-time would have been only about half an hour.

I suppose that the sentence was so lenient (the defendant will be released within 12 months, i.e. 40% of 30 months) because he has lost his job in the police, has been banned from being a policeman in any Welsh or English force for life, and may well be “on the dole” for years after his release.
For the sake of clarity, I do not agree that the wife and mother who got 31 months for a few tweets that few saw and none acted upon should have been imprisoned (or prosecuted at all).

A modest 4/10 this week, though still enough to beat political journalist John Rentoul, who scored only 2/10 (he awarded himself another half-point for knowing the general region of question 4). I knew the answers to questions 2, 4, 8, and 10. I think I knew no.1 (still unsure) as well, and should have got no. 9 too, had I thought longer, but decline to give myself either of those.
“Two of the world’s most notorious and ominous mystics reportedly made the same exact prediction for 2025.

🇮🇷 Air defenses are working HEAVY over Tehran.
Israeli media reports that an "unknown air defense system" was used to shoot down targets over Tehran province.
This video is fake, and you're misleading everyone—it's actually footage from Beirut, not Tehran. The video I'm sharing now is from just moments ago in Tehran, and let me clarify: not a single missile has hit the city.

If it is true that Israel attacked Teheran and that Russian-supplied air defences protected the city, that might be a gamechanger in terms of Israeli capabilities. If it is all true.

I do not at all keep up with the changes in the legal landscape, and so it happened that I was surprised yesterday to read that Blackfriars Crown Court closed down in 2019. I appeared there as Counsel a couple of times sometime around 1994.
The Financial Times report mentions that 43% of courts in England and Wales were closed to save money, by decision of the government of David Cameron-Levita, after 2010. I was aware of some of them, having myself appeared in them. Ilford County Court, Penzance County Court, Launceston Magistrates’ Court —a court building more like a deserted mausoleum even when I was there, once only, in (?) 2004, on a County Court civil case relocated there from Plymouth County Court for hearing—; Trowbridge County Court. Some other courts too.
I vaguely recall being sent in 1993 to do some trivial criminal matter at Blackfriars Crown Court, a “Mention”, I think (they usually take a matter of minutes, once you are there and being heard).
With typical contemporary stupidity, the new Blackfriars Crown Court had been temporarily designated as “Knightsbridge Crown Court (sitting at Blackfriars Crown Court)“. The brief had been marked simply “In the Knightsbridge Crown Court“. What a wonderful waste of my time…so I initially went to the court I knew as Knightsbridge Crown Court, in Hans Crescent, near Harrods, only to find that that court building was under repair (prior to being sold and repurposed).
Even more stupidly, Blackfriars Crown Court was not in the Blackfriars area on the north bank of the Thames anyway, but down an obscure side street on the south side of the river. Apparently named thus because Blackfriars Road is nearby. What idiots are employed to make such decisions?
The whole set of assumptions there is absolutely cuckoo.
No, the British armed forces would have no chance at all of repelling an invasion from, say, the German armed forces as they were in 1940, or the Soviet armed forces as they were circa 1975. Certainly not from the Chinese armed forces, should they somehow gather in Northern France in 2024.
The elephant in the room here, of course, is that the above scenarii are simply not the case. China has no plan to attack Western Europe (inc. UK), the Soviet Union ceased to exist decades ago, and Russia now not only has no intention or wish to invade the UK, but no capability to do so, looking at its less than impressive performance in Ukraine.
As for Germany, the Germany of today is not that of 1940, has no interest in invading the UK, and its armed forces are a tiny fraction of the size of those commanded by Hitler (who anyway had no serious intention of invading the UK even in 1940).
Neither do France or Spain, or the Netherlands, historical would-be invaders of England, have any interest at all in invading this country.
Who, then, is this Labour Party military genius, warning us about invasion? Oh, it is one John Healey, a one-time scribbler (for a year), disability rights campaigner (for 6 years) and then a campaigner for a trade union, and also a p/t Open University lecturer. No military experience, of course, unless you include his 4 years as Shadow Defence Secretary and now Defence Secretary. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Healey; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Healey#Shadow_cabinet.
The only “invasion” happening, which the present government, like the last one, seems powerless to stop, is the worst kind—migration-invasion of the UK by non-Europeans.
Every year, between a half-million and million invaders are arriving in this country: “small boat” illegals, “asylum seekers”, “fiances” and “fiancees”, “work visa holders”, “student visa holders”, “family members” etc. Plus births to non-whites already in the UK.
What is “Field Marshal” (or is that “field mouse”?) Healey going to do about the one invasion that is not only the only one likely to happen, but the only one actually happening? Nothing. Nothing at all.
“A man who blinded an acquaintance with a corrosive liquid at an eco-village has been jailed for 15 years.
Jivan Dean, 24, attacked Raven Riley, 21, with sodium hydroxide – an alkaline also known as caustic soda – in a jealous rage after wrongly believing he had contacted his girlfriend.
Dean was seen heating a liquid in a pan on a hob before hurling it in the face of Riley while he was sitting in a chair at a property in Tipi Valley in Carmarthenshire.
Passing sentence at Swansea crown court, Judge Geraint Walters said Dean was dangerous and passed an extended sentence of 15 years in custody with a further four years on licence.”
Such crimes were very rare here until the mass immigration catastrophe happened. In the instant case, the perpetrator is obviously part-Chinese.
“The number of people who have crossed the Channel in small boats so far this year has exceeded the total number that arrived in the whole of 2023, according to figures published by the Home Office.“

Demonstrations and marches against the madness are OK, but will not, alone, achieve concrete results. In the present conditions of repression of free speech, I prefer to say no more, as yet.
It is clear, though, that the madness cannot continue indefinitely. At some point, this million a year influx (the “small boats” being only a few percent of all immigration) will cause UK society to fall apart.
The Commonwealth is largely a waste of time and money, and always was. A replacement of lesser binding than the Empire, to some extent a consolation for the Monarch (notably, of course, the late Queen): no longer an Empress or Emperor, but still “Head of the Commonwealth”.
If the present members of the Commonwealth (not all even former British colonies) are getting even more “uppity” than previously, then just say goodbye to them and take away their ricebowls, thus saving the poor old British taxpayers (those that still exist) a packet of money.

The Arabs are mostly gagging to become part of “the West”— surely that is obvious. The only thing that impedes such a development is the existence of the Israeli state. Were the USA to stop supporting Israel, a huge reset of the region would be possible.

According to him, such ideas are already appearing in conversations with Ukrainian officials, especially in private discussions. “They’re starting to talk about it now.” They say this can’t last forever. They don’t have people, they don’t have weapons, they don’t have money,” Vance added.”

It becomes evident that (as I have been predicting for the past couple of years) the “Labour” government of Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper and other Labour Friends of Israel members has no intention of stopping or even slowing the invasion. Au contraire... the plan is to wave a magic wand and to rubberstamp the invaders as “legal migrants” and “asylum seekers”, partly by processing them before they even arrive in the UK.
We must expect a continuing migration-invasion (500,000-1M a year if you include those nominally “legal”, more yet if you include births to non-whites).
Our society is slated for destruction, slated by secret cabals and conspiratorial circles embedded in government, the mainstream media and elsewhere.
A Prime Minister who knows little beyond tick-box rules and regulations, a Chancellor of the Exchequer who was unable to organise her own interest-free Parliamentary credit card, a Home Secretary who was an expenses cheat and fraudster, and a Foreign Secretary who is not really British and who is as thick as two short planks. Ecce, your “Labour” misgovernment…

Fascinating how they are pretending that there is not a better way to deal with this sadistic murderer.
“New research suggests that the majority of the world’s modern Jewish population is descended mainly from people from ancient Turkey, rather than predominantly from elsewhere in the Middle East.
The new research suggests that most of the Jewish population of northern and eastern Europe – normally known as Ashkenazic Jews – are the descendants of Greeks, Iranians and others who colonized what is now northern Turkey more than 2000 years ago and were then converted to Judaism, probably in the first few centuries AD by Jews from Persia. At that stage, the Persian Empire was home to the world’s largest Jewish communities.
According to research carried out by the geneticist, Dr Eran Elhaik of the University of Sheffield, over 90 per cent of Ashkenazic ancestors come from that converted partially Greek-originating ancient community in north-east Turkey.”

Explodes the very notion that modern-day Jews have any right at all to the lands of Palestine by reason of ancient occupation. They’re fakes.

Anyone who uses Lewis as a solicitor can expect double-dealing, incompetence, negligence, and dishonesty.
Mark Lewis is a man of straw. When the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal fined and reprimanded him in 2018 (after which he scuttled to Israel, though he keeps returning here to make money, despite the “antisemitism” by which he claims to have been targeted), the Tribunal lowered the level of his fine because, as his own Counsel said to the Tribunal panel, Lewis owned only his own clothes, a £70 a week private pension, and a mobility scooter! Even his car was not his own, but provided to Lewis by the “antisemitic” British taxpayers via the DWP-funded Motability scheme [https://www.motability.co.uk/].

As a former barrister (unlawfully and wrongfully disbarred in 2016 at the instigation of the Jewish lobby), I can see that what is happening is that many people involved (often only peripherally or online) with the protests and so-called “riots” of 2-3 months ago are now sentenced to terms of imprisonment (often years rather than months) for having done not very much; in some cases, almost nothing.
I am presuming that most of those sentenced will have had the benefit of legal advice from solicitors and Counsel.
The problem lies in the narrow legal view taken by many lawyers. I suspect that many of the lawyers involved looked at the political climate (eg the intervention on TV by “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer in July or August), looked at the evidence, and then advised their clients to plead Guilty in order to mitigate the sentence.
All good advice, or would be in a “normal”, non-political, case.
The fact is that most of the sentences being given are absurdly harsh, even taking the charges at face value.
In my opinion, the defendants in most of the recent protest cases, at least the ones about which I have read, would have been no worse off, probably better off, had they pleaded Not Guilty.
I concede that one cannot these days rely on the good sense of the traditional British jury, because the brainwashing of the public continues apace, but still I believe that a jury trial would have given many of those charged a good chance of acquittal.
A gamble, true, to plead Not Guilty, but in these “political” cases not so much, because the “message” from on high seems to have come down, “lock them up“… I do not really believe that many of those defendants have been given a real diminution of sentence of a (or the, notional) third.
My own free speech trial in November 2023 (sentence, March 2024) was different, not having been connected to any violent or noisy protests, but it was still a “political” case (instigated by the malicious Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby).
I republish the details here below but, in short, I pleaded Not Guilty to all 5 similar charges, was found guilty (by a District Judge sitting alone) on all 5 counts, and was sentenced to a financial impost amounting to £734, and to a period of, in effect, probation, involving 15 “rehabilitation days”. In the event, the financial penalty was one-third crowdfunded for me (the rest paid off over the past 6 months in instalments), and the “15 days” turned out to be about half a dozen meetings lasting from 20 minutes to a couple of hours.
All now water under the bridge, and the blog continues to be published daily, but would I really have got a lighter sentence had I pleaded Guilty? Frankly, I doubt it. For one thing, the malicious nature of the whole prosecution would not have been laid bare before the Court.
“Almost 63,000 asylum seekers whose cases were placed on hold by the Tories could be granted permission to stay in Britain under Labour.
A report by the Refugee Council predicts a significant increase in granted claims thanks to changes brought in by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper.
Of 118,882 asylum seekers who were waiting for a Home Office decision at the general election, 62,801 are likely to secure refugee status here based on current rates, the report said.”
[Daily Mail]
Exactly as I have been predicting for the past couple of years.
Stand by for the next “shock”— Starmer and Yvette Cooper “processing” asylum claims in France or even in Africa and Asia, and “allowing” (rubberstamping) 90%+ to come to the UK, then to claim housing, cash benefits, NHS and other services.
Somewhere down the line there will be a complete collapse of our society, possibly in, or followed by, a social/racial/civil war.
Incidentally, over 14,000 migrant-invaders have used the “small boats” method to arrive here this year, so far. That, though, is only about 5%, if that, of the total of migration to the UK so far this year. Over the whole of 2024, the total will be at least half a million, quite likely more.
I live very close to a small southern Hampshire coastal town, reputedly one of the most affluent in the UK. Over the past decade or so, I first noticed quite a few Chinese appearing in the streets, but at first not many blacks or browns, only the odd one. The proportion of all non-Europeans, compared to (real) British people, has risen inexorably. It is patent, quite visible on the streets, even here. In larger towns and cities, such as Southampton and Bournemouth, let alone London, it is much much worse, and still getting worse.
There it is. The main Jewish religious text (the Torah, being the first 5 books of the Hebrew Bible, the same as the first 5 books of the Old Testament) is about twice as violent, even on a superficial view, as the main texts of both Islam and Christianity.

Much of Africa had functioning railways when Europeans ruled. Few of those lines are left (mostly in South Africa, but some elsewhere too). Some new lines are planned.
I myself have only travelled once on African rail but that was, again, under white European rule, in 1977, travelling from Bulawayo, Rhodesia (now “Zimbabwe”) to Gaborone in Botswana, an overnight journey that started just after midday, around 1300 hrs, at Bulawayo, and finished at seven-thirty the following morning at Gaborone. About 18 hours. The train then continued on into South Africa, finishing either at Ladysmith or Mafeking (I forget). That would have been inconvenient to me, so I hopped off in Botswana.
Fortunately, the train was not hit en route (as it had been several times previously) by rocket or small arms fire from African terrorists/guerrillas/”freedom fighters” in the Rhodesia-Botswana border area (take your pick as to designation), the Rhodesian Bush War being at or near its height at the time.

No details about the polling, so I am entitled to presume that those figures are simply invented, the “poll” having been released by the globalist and finance-capitalist Policy Exchange “think tank” (lobby group). I should hate to have to conclude that 49% of the people in this country are ignorant morons.
The Commonwealth has been a complete waste of time and money for decades now, in any case.
Even now, the Kiev-regime front is crumbling, with Russian forces advancing on all sectors of the active front, and the Kiev regime struggling to find enough soldiers (many with as little as 6 weeks’ training) to plug the gaps. Untold thousands are evading or avoiding the draft, and brutal press-gangs are scouring the cities and towns.
This latest move could be a game-changer. The Koreans are tough, the North Koreans maybe even more so than those in the South.
I recall that, in 1984, when I was a taekwando beginner, I watched a film about South Korea’s advanced taekwando training academy, a modern white-painted concrete-and-glass building out in the Korean countryside. That film started with a contingent of trainees, all neat, none looking hot or sweaty, and all in white costume with black belts, jogging in perfect formation. The voiceover explained that the students had just finished a 10-mile run, and that all students at that academy were already of at least basic black belt standard when they started at the academy.
I wonder where Putin and the Stavka (Russian high command) will deploy those Korean troops. Clausewitz would seem to indicate that they be kept together rather than dispersed, thus forming a spearhead force that, concentrated on one area of the front, might be able to create a Schwerpunkt breakthrough.

The reasons for this latest injustice are, of course, obvious.
Firstly, Huw Edwards is a member of the System msm/political/talking head/scribbler club. Pro-migration invasion, pro-multikulti, pro-System, pro-Israel (probably), pro-Jew-lobby (almost certainly), pro-LGBTXYZ, pro-“trans” nonsense, and so on.
The lady sentenced to an incredibly harsh 31 months for an understandable (if unwise) tweet or whatever is not a member of that “club”. She is “just” a wife and (to use the very good American word) homemaker. A normal citizen, in short.
The System protects its own, such as Huw Edwards; ordinary citizens are treated like trash.
Secondly, Huw Edwards was guilty of a non-political offence. In the new sub-Stalinist Britain, socio-political “crimes” such as posting the “wrong sort of” tweet, or criticizing the Jewish lobby, or the migration invasion, are treated far more harshly than “real” crimes, non-political crimes.
Lucy Connolly has been treated harshly because of, and, in my opinion only because of, those two factors.
There was no evidence that any of the actual protesters or “rioters” were influenced by, or even saw, her tweet and/or her WhatsApp message (though that need not be proven to make out the offence). Still, those facts should surely mitigate sentence.
I have two or three further thoughts about the matter: firstly, that her husband or someone else should set up a GoFundMe or other crowdfunder for her; secondly, that she should have pleaded Not Guilty. She may well have been lucky in her jury.
It might also be worth her while to consider an appeal on sentence (alone).
As it is, 40% of 31 months translates to about 12 months and 1 week actually in prison. I believe that I read at the time of her arraignment that she was remanded in custody prior to sentence. That was sometime in August of this year, so she has already been in prison for —I think— over 2 months. That should mean that she can expect release within about 10 months. Still very harsh, in my view.
The sentencing judge (a Recorder, i.e. p/t judge, and barrister) apparently made the ridiculous remark today that “It is [a/the] strength of our society that it is both diverse and inclusive.” Does he really and honestly believe that?!
So another person has received a harsher yet sentence for merely having reposted part of one of Mrs. Connolly’s messages.
I have to say that Mrs. Connolly’s husband does not strike me as being or having been particularly outspoken in her defence, but I suppose that I could be mistaken about him. I should not like to think that his reserved response has anything to do with his pathetic local Conservative Party activity.
