'We have to draw a line somewhere. We cannot just keep taking people from war torn countries.'@GoodwinMJ argues why Britain should not take in refugees from Gaza.
Jewish woman, one Zoe Grunewald, wants the UK (not herself personally, of course; she probably lives in a leafy suburb or other area far from the terrible society that is already developing by reason of migration-invasion) to take millions of “refugees”.
I also disagree with her view that “we” (British people) feel “proud” that “we” accepted Jewish “refugees” in the 1930s. Many of us actually think that that was a catastrophic error.
In principle, there are maybe 800 million people worldwide who, under the present framework, might have a “legitimate” claim to be granted asylum. Add to that the hundreds of millions who might make claim to asylum illegitimately, and you see the point— the UK cannot, could never take a billion or more persons, a number about 15x the present UK population.
It is often said that that would never happen, that the number who might come here is far lower. Perhaps, but then what is that number? 150 million (which would triple the existing UK population)? Even that would completely collapse our present society. Lower yet, say 75 million? That would still double the existing UK population, and would also shatter our society, irrevocably.
At present, about a million migrant-invaders are coming to the UK each year. Most are not “asylum-seekers”, but that is irrelevant; all that matters is the total number.
Matt Goodwin should have made those points, not his poor point about how a couple of foreign girls in the UK put paraglider motifs on their clothing after the October 2023 attack on Israel by Hamas operatives.

“Soldiers are furious with Zelenskiy.
“Since the end of the hostilities is not in sight, the Ukrainian army has difficulties in recruiting personnel, and the fighters are increasingly exhausted and dissatisfied due to the lack of rotation” , writes “The Guardian”.
Many soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been at the front for more than two years without the possibility of demobilization.“
At long last, the truth is coming out about the corrupt, brutal and shambolic dictatorship of the Jew Zelensky and his cabal.
Soon, the Kiev regime’s front lines will crumble, and the Russian forces will be able to roll across the eastern part of Ukraine, i.e. the lands east of the Dnieper. Once Kharkov falls, or is bypassed, there will be nothing to stop Russian forces from occupying those huge areas indefinitely.
Russia cannot lose this war, and will not lose it.

One side-effect of the continuing Israeli crimes (whether they be officially labelled “war crimes” or not) is that the —in any case, steadily weakening— effect of the Jewish/Israeli “holocaust” propaganda re. the early 1940s is yet further diluted, if you like.
The peoples of the world are already bored to tears by that mainly post-1950s barrage in films, TV series, books, msm references.
People now say or think, in effect, “whatever happened in Germany, Poland, Ukraine, or the Pribaltika, happened 80+ years ago. Soon, it will be a century ago. We are more interested in what is happening now, not what happened or did not happen, or partly happened, 80 or 100 years ago“…

So Ayesha Hazarika, who was a comedian (apparently unsuccessful) for a couple of years about 20 years or so ago, and who worked her way up as Labour Party “adviser” (why? how? with what qualification or experience?), and who appeared many times on TV comedy/current affairs rubbish (obviously knew people who promoted her), is now a member of the devalued House of Lords.
God help us, though this sort of nonsense is scarcely new; cf. Oona King.
Well, Ayesha Hazarika no longer need to pretend to be a comedian or politician-manque; she need only take about 30 minutes out of her day to sign in at the Lords, and maybe (optional) partake of a subsidized lunch, to get about £350 taxfree (per day).

Another “endless war”: Washington still doesn’t know what it wants to achieve in Ukraine – Foreign Affairs

Is the US war aim the defeat of Russia and collapse of the Russian state? Well, that is not going to happen. Ukraine has not the means to attempt such a task, against a population maybe now 5x the size, and in a vast geographic space.
Is the US war aim for the forces of the Kiev regime to occupy or re-occupy the oblasts of Lugansk and Donetsk, and the new Russian republic of Crimea? That, at present, also seems all but impossible.
Russia has a functioning and even growing economy, a growing and improving army, air force and (arguably) navy, missile forces, and the backstop of nuclear weapons. Ukraine has a collapsed economy, and a population much of which lives in other countries (including Russia). Ukraine (Kiev-regime Ukraine) is almost totally dependent on Western aid. It also now faces shortages of soldiers, arms, and ammunition.
The concealed US war aim was to use the Zelensky regime to put pressure on Putin, and possibly to encourage a palace revolution in Moscow. It never happened and, now that Prigozhin has been knocked off the board “with extreme prejudice”, and his Wagner Group mainly absorbed into the ordinary Russian forces, never will. Not in the next few years, anyway.
If the details were not so horrific, those accounts would be almost funny in places— “they” are always the “victims”, even when blowing up and shooting unarmed civilians, including women and children.
That was in 1948, but here we are in 2024, 76 years later, and similar crimes are taking place in Gaza. “Their” behaviour does not change…only the power of their weapons has changed.
As the above map shows, if Russian forces can take Kharkov, it will be massive. Other Russian forces, pushing up from the south and southeast, will then squeeze the Kiev-regime forces out of the area between Kharkov and Donetsk. Thus the stage will be set for a push west and north towards and along the Dnieper, until the outer boundaries of the Kiev defence lines are reached.
At this point, I concur with the assesment that this is a limited operation to create a buffer zone, not an offensive aimed at #Kharkov, but they are still in the early phase, so things might change.https://t.co/gaVeDEpCTV

Goodwin is right on all that, but the problem is that the Rwanda plan is not an effective deterrent, for the reasons I have blogged about in previous blog posts.

Lammy is so incredibly ignorant about anything and everything that it is almost funny (or would be, were he not likely to be a Cabinet minister with real power by this time next year).
Mandela was as thick as two short planks. Failed law student (finally awarded a degree in the 1980s, after having become famous…), failed would-be lawyer, and failed revolutionary, whose “revolution” (planned partly by blacks but mainly by anti-white Jews) never got off the ground: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMkhonto_we_Sizwe; also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivonia_Trial.

Sunak’s government of clowns really is running on empty.
In 2022 Natalie Elphicke used a debate on P&O sacking 800 workers & replacing them with cheaper foreign workers as an opportunity to attack trade unions.
Natalie Elphicke pretended to stay loyal to her foolish husband while he was on trial for pathetic minor sex crimes, divorced him after he was convicted and imprisoned, and arranged to replace him as Conservative Party MP for Dover. Now, realizing that the game is up, she defects to Labour! About as trustworthy as any triple agent…
Mick Lynch last year: "If you're coming to the electorate with a message of change, you've got to show that there will be real change. And that's what the country is crying out for"
Having said that, Natalie Elphicke is unarguably right about Sunak’s bad joke government. The very roads are like something out of the Ukraine now— potholed, rutted, unrepaired or, at best, poorly-patched.
I started to comment on the blog years ago about how, not overnight but over 10-15 or more years (even pre-dating “Conservative” governments post-2010) “nothing works in Britain these days”. The newspapers started to say the same a couple of years ago. Now, hardly anyone would argue about it.
It will be interesting to see whether Natalie Elphicke, if not adopted as Labour candidate for the Dover constituency, stands as Independent. It might be tight between Con and Lab anyway, but with Reform UK in the mix (and very likely to do well), and Natalie Elphicke potentially standing as Independent, it could be a very close contest indeed. She might even win.
Come to think of it, Natalie Elphicke might have done better to have defected to Reform UK, which would probably have made her its Dover candidate, and with a reasonable shot at winning in a three-way split.

[Kensington Roof Gardens, London, which date back to the 1930s]
London has large areas of unused roof space which could be turned into green space; not necessarily all open to the public, but still a haven for birds and a recreational resource for individual people, families, employee groups etc.
I had such ideas back in the mid/late 1970s, when I happened to see some of the views from the roof areas of tall buildings: a couple of the then-tall buildings of the City of London (now dwarfed by the new high buildings, of course), the British Gas building at Marble Arch etc; both during the daytime and at night.
Since those times, others with similar ideas but more resources have actually been able to make a few projects a reality. There remains huge scope.

A reference to those detained and convicted in relation to the recent terrorist attack in Moscow, who may spend their lives as of now in so-called “coffin” cells measuring 4-6 square metres; cells as tiny as 6 feet by 6.
It troubles me that the apparent terrorists were treated with such brutality, verging on sadism (to say the very least), on the day when they were detained; also, that the now-mandated conditions of detention seem worse than simply inhumane; as bad as, or worse, than those suffered by some prisoners in America’s “Supermax” prisons.
It is not that I think that the terrorists “deserve” better treatment but rather, that to treat even such individuals as they have been treated and continue to be treated, diminishes Russia itself, just as Guantanamo, Bagram, Abu Ghraib etc diminished, and continue to diminish, America.

I cannot see the Kiev regime being behind this, except as the most dangerous game move (provoking Putin into doing something so harsh that it might then bring NATO into the Ukraine war directly). Surely even the Kiev regime would not do something so crazy?
How Russia will escalate has become more important than if Ukraine was actually behind this, which we may never know. https://t.co/wGLPm4GEkV

In fact, and in any case, “antisemitism”, as such, is not illegal in this country; neither is so-called “holocaust” “denial”. That much has been made clear in numerous court cases though, as far as I am aware, not yet at appeal level in the higher courts (Court of Appeal and Supreme Court of the UK).
Actually, the trial judge was fair in his actual conduct of the trial, overall, but Britain these days has come under a kind of low cloud of repression in respect of —shall we say?— “them“…
I feel that a few issues were slightly fudged in the delivered judgment of the learned District Judge at my trial. It is long since I was a barrister in court (2007) but I feel that there was at least one good appeal point in that judgment.
However, I am disinclined to appeal, and then have to go through, at the Crown Court, what would amount to a retrial, rehashing all the nonsense of the “CAA” and CPS already heard, particularly as the sentence eventually handed down by the sentencing judge was relatively light; and also in view of the fact that the sentencing District Judge refused the Prosecution application for a Criminal Behaviour Order to restrict (though not much, really, the Order and Application having been so poorly-drafted) my publication of the blog.
Incidentally, my trial was at the end of last November, so only a week short of 4 months ago. Tempus fugit. Even my sentencing hearing was 9 days ago, but I have already done one day out of the ordered 15 “probation” days (nominally a day, in terms of the sentence format, but actually about an hour in real time).
The blog continues. The blog will continue. Inshallah, as the Arabs say.

…and here is another thieving leech, Stephen Byers, another freeloading and/or fraudulent expenses cheat, and another Labour Friends of Israel member: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Byers.
2015: Jeremy Corbyn elected Labour leader. 2016: 172 Right Wing Labour MPs stage coup to get rid of him. 2016: same MPs back Owen Smith leadership bid. 2017 12.8 million vote for Corbyn in GE. 2024: these same RW MPs, including Starmer, running the Labour Party. #DontVoteLabourpic.twitter.com/E5EOHICI5o
“Right Wing Labour MPs“, says he, meaning “members of Labour Friends of Israel“: at least three out of the ten Jewish (some of the rest possibly part- or “crypto”). Several of that group of ten wealthy or very wealthy; the rest freeloading, and/or fraudulent, leeches and snakes.
The Starmer led Labour Party in many ways are worse then the Tories, they are using Labour’s history of being a voice for the working class to further the agenda of the elites.
It is now not impossible that, at the upcoming 2024 General Election, the Reform UK party, despite its flaws (from my ideological direction) will run about level with the Con Party; somewhere around 15%-20%. If so, and if Labour can get about 45%, the Con Party might be left with about 25-50 MPs (Labour 500-525; LibDems 25-50; Reform UK 0-5; Green 1-2; SNP 15-30; Plaid Cymru 2-3; others, about 18).
If the Conservative Party declines to somewhere below 50 MPs, it is an open question (bearing in mind the age of its core voters) as to whether it can survive at all in the medium term (2030-2050).
While I agree with Nick Griffin [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Griffin] that there is, for social-national people, “no Parliamentary road” in a totally rigged game, it is not impossible for a political party as yet not in existence to play at least some role in a general social-national upsurge. “All roads lead to Rome“, as they say.

“Taurus missiles could have a significant impact on Ukraine’s ability to defend itself, – Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski supported Ukraine in its desire to obtain the Taurus and accused Germany of indecisiveness in supplying new weapons systems to the war zone.
“Thanks to cruise missiles from other countries, the Ukrainians have already convinced the Russians to move their logistics bases, such as ammunition depots, far behind the front line. And the German missiles will force them to move even further,” he said.“
As for those missiles, yes, they would assist the Kiev regime’s war effort, but its war is now lost anyway— insufficient soldiers, arms, and ammunition, and collapsing morale. If Germany supplies such missiles, not only Kiev might become a major target for —far more powerful— Russian missiles, but also other cities; even Berlin itself. Don’t stoke the fires of war.

George Galloway may heroically stand up for the Palestinians, but will he stand up for the British who are being rapidly replaced in Britain? Will he stand up for Sam Melia who has been unjustly imprisoned for simply speaking out about it? If not, he is a total fraud. https://t.co/AjkObUAvj2
Galloway is, to some extent, a kind of fraud and, to the extent that he is not, stands mainly for the Muslim bloc, not for white people in the UK (the people formerly known as “British”). He used to block me on Twitter, when I still had a Twitter account (the Jewish lobby, after a long campaign, had Twitter expel me in 2018).
I was amused and pleased to see Galloway’s recent by-election victory, which I anticipated on the blog, but he has nothing to say to the British people.
In 1998, I lived for three months in Egypt and, for the entire lunar month of Ramadan, was staying at Mamoura Beach, a suburb of Alexandria, where I took a flat. I believe in “when in Rome, do as the Romans do” (within reason), but not all reciprocate.
Not that I fasted like the Arabs, but I ate and drank mostly at home; very occasionally, I would go in late afternoon to the (deserted) McDonald’s in Mamoura Beach, a short walk away, for a “Filet-o-fish” or apple pie; they would seat me in a place which could not be seen from the street. McDonalds is a “restaurant” very rarely used by me in the UK, but that suburb had no other cafes.

“NATO is losing experienced soldiers due to the low attractiveness of military service Against the backdrop of the Ukrainian conflict, NATO troops are faced with a personnel shortage.
This is not so much about recruiting new recruits, but about retaining soldiers and officers who are already in service, writes Politico. European countries that rely on professional militaries are trying to make their armed forces more attractive. But this is difficult to achieve in times of low unemployment, fierce competition from the private sector and widespread use of remote work, the publication explains.
A recent report presented in the German parliament showed that 1,537 soldiers left the Bundeswehr in 2023. In addition to increasing layoffs, the German army has to deal with dilapidated infrastructure, the repair of which could cost about €50 billion, Politico notes.
French Minister of the Armed Forces Sebastien Lecornu admitted that the difficulty of “retaining” personnel exists in many allied countries. Paris and some other NATO members hope to stimulate the military with higher salaries and social guarantees, the article notes. Money does play a significant role in keeping people in the military. But the problem is that the conditions of service in NATO armies are not that attractive. After all, chronic overtime, the inability to get home for many months and a lack of days off are commonplace there, Politico emphasizes.“
If NATO were to stop interfering in Ukraine, the Middle East, and elsewhere, that shortage of personnel would not even be a problem. Meanwhile, almost all NATO states are suffering from non-European migration-invasion, and no amount of new or old soldiers will stop that, because the NWO-ZOG political leadership is encouraging mass immigration into the European space.

2024 may see a general advance by Russian forces in Eastern Ukraine. It is an open question whether the Stavka and Putin will await the 2024 UK and US elections. If there is any pause (which I doubt), 2025 will surely bring victory over the Kiev regime.

That underwhelming career somehow morphed into her “advising” some of the leading figures in the Labour Party 2007-2015. How? Why?
By 2016, Ayesha Hazarika had picked up an MBE, been proposed but not confirmed for nomination for a peerage, was somehow inescapable on msm TV and radio politics shows for several years and, after having been vocally anti-Corbyn, was nominated for a peerage by Israel-puppet Labour Party leader Keir Starmer, finally being elevated to the (now surely totally devalued) House of Lords in 2024, at the age of 48. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayesha_Hazarika,_Baroness_Hazarika
As can be seen, the common thread through that career, certainly after 2007, seems to have been the “usual” lobby…
That is the kind of individual now making law in the UK.
I have seen Ayesha Hazarika a number of times on TV, though quite a few years ago. I never heard her say anything of interest, as far as I can recall.

“Police officers in Scotland are being given training to target social media posts, including re-tweets, of material deemed “threatening and abusive.”
Under the county’s new hate crime law, actors and comedians are not given a free pass to make jokes about sensitive subjects that offend people, either. The new training provided to officers, which was leaked to The Herald, requires police officers to go after anyone who produces material deemed “threatening and abusive,” which can also be communicated through “public performance of a play.”
Under the new hate crime law, people who make fun of or misgender trans people, make racial jokes or criticisms of certain religions, or criticize migrants can be prosecuted.
“The different ways in which a person may communicate material to another person are by: displaying, publishing or distributing the material, for example on a sign, on the internet through websites, blogs, podcasts, social media etc., either directly, or by forwarding or repeating material that originates from a third party, through printed media such as magazine publications or leaflets.”
The hate crime law goes on to state that “giving, sending, showing, or playing the material to another person” listing examples such as “through online streaming, by email, playing a video, through public performance of a play.” So repeat a joke you heard online, or show someone a spicy meme or commentary of a transgender person or mass migration on your livestream, and, and you too will be arrested.

“HMRC has sparked fury by announcing it will permanently close tax helplines for six months and let 100 customer service staff work a three-day week over the summer.
Taxpayers will not be able to call the tax office for help with their returns from April 8 until September 30, HM Revenue and Custom has today announced.
The move comes just weeks after the Commons Public Accounts Committee of MPs condemned HMRC’s customer service for hitting an ‘all-time low’.
New figures showed how almost 1million calls went unanswered in January – typically the busiest month of the year for the service, with taxpayers rushing to file for self-assessment tax returns without triggering fines for lateness.”
Jesus H. Christ…does anything work properly in this country any more?!
Having said that, when I had (historical) tax problems and had to engage with the Revenue, well over a decade ago, especially in 2010-2011, I was quite frankly amazed to see how utterly shambolic the HMRC “service” actually was. It’s an overused term, but it was “Kafka-esque” to a degree I would not have believed had I not experienced it myself.
So now it is actually worse? Hard to believe. The one comfort I have from that very stressful period many years ago is that, soon after I got off the hook, and during the Cameron-Levita/Osborne “austerity” programme, most if not all of the HMRC staff that had harassed and annoyed me, and created problems for me, lost their jobs. Suck on that…
Still, all’s well that ends well…my income is now so low that the shambles of administration in that “service” need not concern me. My problems with “the taxman” were settled to my satisfaction in 2012.

Good grief.
Many attempts have been made to conquer that region: Alexandrine Greeks under Alexander the Great (4th Century B.C.), the troops of the British Empire (19thC A.D.), the armies of the Soviet Union (1980s), and the armies of the Western alliance (2001-2021). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afghanistan#History.
According to my use of Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], that works out as leaving the Con Party with about 42 MPs (Labour 518; LibDems 49; SNP 18; Plaid Cymru 3; Greens 2; Northern Irish seats 18).
Were that to happen, the LibDems would be the official Opposition, and the UK would be under what is already looking like being a Labour Party “elected dictatorship” for 5 years at least.

Statements made by Millard included that ‘there is nothing wrong with being antisemitic’, that England would ‘be a great deal better’ with more antisemitism and suggestions that the Holocaust was ‘fake history’.
He also posted imagery which portrayed antisemitic conspiracy theories.
Working closely with Hampshire Constabulary, the CPS trawled through twelve months’ worth of evidence from Millard’s blog.
Unpicking the evidence, piece by piece, including one month of posts alone which totalled 450 pages, prosecutors were able to show the continuous barrage of offensive material – all of which needed to be considered by prosecutors to build the strongest possible case.
At trial, prosecutors utilised the evidence to prove Millard was not simply expressing his freedom of speech, but was engaged in a campaign of antisemitic hate, publishing grossly offensive material which breached the Communications Act.
Having been found guilty after trial of five charges of breaching the Communications Act, Millard, 67 and of the New Forest, was sentenced at Southampton Magistrates’ Court on 14 March 2024 and received a nine month Community Order.
Sophie Stevens, Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor with CPS Wessex, said: “Antisemitism has a devastating impact on individuals and communities – we won’t hesitate to bring offenders of hate crime to justice.
“This was a complex prosecution which required many hours scrutinising the masses of online content that Ian Millard deemed perfectly acceptable.“
[Crown Prosecution Service public/Press statement]
A few points about that.
Firstly, the malicious and politically-motivated pro-Israel group, “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, or “CAA” (effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy) have admitted on both their website and Twitter/X account that they brought political pressure to bear on the CPS to prosecute me for something/anything, including a letter written directly to the Director of Public Prosecutions by “Lord” Ian Austin, the notorious ex-MP. The “CAA” campaign against me has lasted a whole decade now.
Second, the words allegedly used on the blog were “…a lot better for a little more defensive antisemitism“. The CPS has left out that important qualifier.
Thirdly, imagine the waste of public money in which the CPS has indulged. Hundreds, if not thousands, of pages of blog material, examined minutely. A court process involving some half dozen days or part-days of hearing during 2023 and 2024. Instruction of outside Counsel to appear at each hearing etc.
Also, months of enforced activity by me as I fought to defend myself without any legal or financial assistance; a certain amount of stress, inevitably. The necessity to drive to Southampton several times, too.
The result? Slightly more severe than I had hoped (I was hoping for a conditional discharge or small fine of about £200), but far less severe than the “CAA” and its horrible supporters wanted to see. They really wanted the manacles on me, to quote the late Sir Roger Hollis.
So. 15 meetings with the Probation Service spread over the next 9 months. Also, a nearly £800 costs order and “surcharge” [see also https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J].
Notice how the CPS was obviously desperate to have the result of my case in the newspapers, even adding “Notes for Editors” to its statement.
The question now is whether the CPS will be pressured further by the “CAA” to take other action against me, particularly in respect of blog posts in late 2023 and early 2024 (after conviction but prior to sentence). Needless to say, all further attacks will be vigorously defended, should push come to shove.
Looking at the CPS statement, the old saying “it ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings” comes to mind.
As for the blog, I have already announced that, while the blog will continue to be published daily, or near-daily, its content will inevitably have to change slightly, be more diplomatic etc. Also, I hope to shift the emphasis from comment more towards how to build for the future.
Naturally, in a situation where free speech is all but dead in this country, I cannot invite further politically-motivated prosecutions. I must tread the line, as did Sir Thomas More [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_More], between (metaphorically, in my case) keeping my head on my shoulders, and staying true to principle and honour.
There have been a few tweets about my trial and sentence. The “no-one watches” Talk TV (part of the mass media empire founded by the ancient billionaire, Rupert Murdoch), tweeted thus:
Ian Millard, 67, of Pennington, Hampshire, was found guilty at Southampton Magistrates' Court of five offences of posting the messages between April and December 2021.
As one would expect from a Murdoch operation, there is dishonesty in that tweet. For one thing, the image and quotation is from my old Twitter/X account. The Jewish lobby or members of it had Twitter delete my account in 2018, almost 6 years ago, and the tweet probably comes from well before even that date.
I notice that Talk TV’s tweet has had some 3,400 views, yet only 9 people have “liked” it, and only 9 (presumably the same 9) have retweeted it. About a quarter of one percent. So somewhere between 99.5%-100% are either with me or are just not very interested in the story.
The tweet by the “Clown” Prosecution Service followed the same pattern. No less than 13,000 people have apparently viewed it, but only 85 have “liked” it, and even fewer (29) have retweeted it. 85 out of 13,000; about half of one percent. So —again— about 99% of people are either with me or are not terribly interested in what the CPS has to say.
“Millard and the People!” (?) (and with apologies to Ceausescu).
I suppose that it proves how nervous the System is at the popular mood under the surface. People in the UK may be unaware of their own unconscious political preferences…
I noticed that one clown tweeter seems unable to read:
Well if he’s reached 67yrs with that mindset then I doubt anything will cause him to change now. I hope his past cases are reviewed and that he is disbarred. #IanMillard#TalkTV
One of the few other reply-tweets about the matter:
.@cpsuk act like authoritarian dictators, like Hitler and Mussolini, using violence to suppress ideas they don't agree with. Why can't CPS behave like adults and debate opposing points of view here on Twitter instead of abusing their power to silence legitimate free speech.
— Dave. Anti-Fascist As Feck. 𝕏 🇺🇦 (@DaveAFAF) March 15, 2024
That lunatic (he is actually a mental case of some sort, on medication) has been making silly and rude remarks about me for many years, and inciting various people, various organizations, the few who bother to read his tweets, against me.
If I had more money (well, it is just possible that I might hit the Euromillions lottery…), I should apply for a Norwich Pharmacal Order, thus have his identity and address confirmed (like others, he may not be quite as anonymous as he thinks anyway), and then take legal action against him. That would prove expensive for him…
For more about that lunatic, and others of similar type, see this blog post from 5 years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/. In that article, I examined the strong links between “antifascism”, Zionism, and mental illness, linkages rarely if ever noted by the mainstream media.
This was tweeted too, by the “Searchlight” “organization” (one old “you know who” in an East London backroom):
— @Searchlightmagazine (@Searchlight_mag) March 15, 2024
Note that “Searchlight“, which has been tracking me since about 1975, is completely washed-up.
Their tweet (politely pretending that it is more than one individual…) has had (after 2 days) only 575 views, and only 5 “likes”. Malicious, but ultimately pathetic, idiot(s).
In fact, I see that “Searchlight” only has about 2,800 “followers” on Twitter/X. When I was expelled at the behest of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby in 2018, I already had over 3,000, and by now would have had probably at least 10,000 (which, of course, was why “they” had me expelled…).
This time round, there has been no interest by Sky TV, the Daily Mail (the scribbler whom I believe was in charge of my disbarment story in 2016 has left and is now the editor of…the Jewish Chronicle!) etc. Only the BBC, the “no-one watches it” Talk TV, and a small provincial newspaper which describes me as “disgraced barrister“. “Disgraced“? Now I think I know from (((where))) that description comes…
I may be disbarred, but am not disgraced except in the little minds of the “usual suspects” and the fools who listen to them.
Incidentally, there were no reporters at all at the sentencing hearing, so that “journalist” (stupid scribbler) has taken his “report” straight from the “CAA” and/or CPS.
There is a lot of news around at present: the Israeli mass slaughter of women and children in Gaza, the Russian elections, the now rather rapid destruction of the misnamed “Conservative” Party. Even in the area of so-called “far-right” “extremism”, on the very same day that I was sentenced (last Thursday), a supposed “far-right” or “neo-Nazi” young man was sentenced to over 2 years in prison for having done not very much.
In view of all that, the story about the retired barrister who said a few supposedly “grossly offensive” things about Jews etc on his blog (read by a fairly small number of people worldwide), and allegedly posted a few cartoons, hardly makes the cut.
I suppose that I should be grateful to, especially, the CPS and the “CAA”, as well as Talk TV, the BBC, and the various Jewish/Zionist and supposedly “antifascist” Twitter/X accounts, and a few small online news outlets, for their diligent work over the past days and months, spreading my words, or alleged words, and my views (or supposed views), so widely.
Their attacks on me, their reportage, and of course the whole recent prosecution of me, have brought my views to the attention of a wider audience by far than my modest blog had so far reached. Thank you.
Finally, I forgot to note that the main policeman (a uniformed constable) who has been involved in my “case” (since 2021), was in court for my sentencing.
I do not propose to name him here (despite his name having been read out in open court), and actually he seems to be generally an amiable young man, though seemingly rather misled ideologically, judging by his dogged snooping on my blog, and by his witness statements.
My point here is that was the same policeman whose “neighbourhood policing team” failed (as far as I know) to do much to deal with a spate of anti-social and acquisitive crime incidents in 2021-2023 in the relatively not-good neighbourhood where I now, perforce, live. Those incidents included the theft of a wheel from my own car in early 2023.
Putting it less politely, the Hampshire Constabulary proved to be utterly useless in doing their proper job.
So there we have it. Next stop— 15 meetings with the Probation Service…
I suppose that I should add a word about appeal to the Crown Court.
At present, I do not intend to appeal on either conviction or sentence.
The present political climate —and this was a political case, and I was charged as part of the UK’s present political repression on free speech— would make an appeal against conviction unlikely to succeed.
Appeals to Crown Court from the magistrates’ court are before a Circuit Judge, assisted by one or two magistrates. So no jury to whom to speak, or to persuade. As for appeal against sentence, the present sentence is not particularly severe. 15 days or part-days of meetings, and a financial impost. The maximum sentence would have been 6 months’ imprisonment (in reality, about 2-3 months).
For me, there would thus seem to be little point in appealing, even though I dispute that I was convicted correctly, or charged correctly.
Finally, I do have a crowdfunder in place to help pay for the £1,000 the case has cost me. Any and all donations gratefully received. Thank you.
[Update, 15 April 2024: I only today noticed that the “no-one watches” Talk TV has it on its website that I was “jailed” at my (March 2024) sentencing hearing! Ha ha! The stupid bastards at Talk TV cannot even get the most basic facts right.]
[Update, 9 June 2024:I should point out that my sentence, which was called (some days or weeks later) “absurdly lenient” by the malicious and conspiratorial Jew-Zionist group, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (which admits to having pushed for 7 years for me to be prosecuted), was made by the learned (and generally quite fair) sentencing judge on the specific recommendation of the Probation Service officer who met me in mid-December 2023 and later drafted a pre-sentence report for the Court. The sentence itself (a “community order” with 15 “rehabilitation days”) exactly followed the recommendation made in that report.]
[Update, 13 September 2024: As of yesterday, I do not have to attend any further meetings with the Probation Service, despite not having actually attended very many: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/09/13/diary-blog-13-september-2024/. My sentence is therefore effectively at an end. “The usual suspects” ((( ))) will be fuming].

“In August 2020, wildfire burned almost the entire Big Basin Redwoods state park in California, scorching ancient redwood trees, some dating back more than 1,500 years and among the tallest living things on Earth.
Redwoods are naturally fire resistant thanks to their thick bark, but the wildfire was so intense and flames so high the trees’ foliage was destroyed, even in tree canopies more than 300ft high.
It was feared the redwoods would never recover, but a few months later something incredible happened – many of the trees began sprouting tiny leaf needles from blackened trunks and branches, and two years later the forest had turned green.
Much of this fresh growth sprouted from buds under the bark and also deep inside the trees, some buds having lain dormant for more than 1,000 years.”

Everyone knows this is a man. Why is the media, who NEED to earn trust in the current climate, lying to people about something so basic and so vital? The word 'woman' does not belong to this person. He's a man. #notourcrimeshttps://t.co/4ACf1Z5yQz
I had not previously heard of this person or of his crimes. It does beg the questions around Nature v. Nurture, in that the subject had been brutalized from an early age, firstly by his own parents, then by the juvenile “reform” system, then by other experiences, and finally by the state and Federal adult prison systems.
In other words, someone evidently monstrous, but at the same time someone made monstrous, arguably. It would be interesting to compare the life-stories of his several siblings.
Having said that, there are, I think, still many good people in the NHS, but the structure and management of the Service is obviously unwieldy and inefficient.

The former Tory deputy chair, Lee Anderson, has refused to apologise for comments that saw him suspended from the party
I have a shrewd idea (or maybe not so shrewd— we shall see…) that “30p Lee” Anderson may have jettisoned the Conservative Party rather than the other way around. After all, the Con Party is staring down the barrel of an electoral meltdown which may finish off arguably the longest-surviving political party in the world.
The Conservative Party was looking at quite likely defeat in Anderson’s constituency, but now maybe not (if Anderson is reinstated). If Anderson is not reinstated, he may well be able to stay on as MP either as an Independent or, more likely, after having stood as Reform Party candidate. He now has real national profile.
The maverick MP has been suspended from being under the Conservative Party whip.
Naturally, I do not agree with his statement that London is “run by Muslims”. Sadiq Khan is from a Muslim background, but has been pretty much in the Jew-Zionist pocket for many years.
It would be more accurate to characterize Sadiq Khan as “anti-white”.
As to Anderson himself, I suggest that he is trying to bolster his position vis a vis the General Election expected later this year.
David Marquand, a former MP for Ashfield (1966-1977; he is still alive, at 89): “Originally a tentative supporter of Blair’s New Labour, he has since become a trenchant critic, arguing that “New Labour has ‘modernised’ the social-democratic tradition out of all recognition”, even while retaining the over-centralisation and disdain for the radical intelligentsia of the old “Labourite” tradition.” [Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Marquand.
Marquand defected to the SDP and then was honourable enough to step down as MP, not contesting the by-election.
In fact, Marquand was himself rather intellectual:
“Marquand addressed Britain’s relative economic decline in The Unprincipled Society (1988) and The New Reckoning (1997). He argued that this decline was caused by Britain’s failure to become a developmental state like France, Germany and Japan. In those countries state intervention had encouraged industrial development and had facilitated the necessary adjustments to competition. Britain, however, was wedded to an economic liberalism which prevented the state from undertaking the necessary measures to meet the country’s developmental needs.[7] In The New Reckoning Marquand claimed: “The economies that have succeeded more spectacularly have been those fostered by developmental states, where public power, acting in concert with private interest, has induced market forces to flow in the desired direction”.[8]” [Wikipedia].
In fact, Ashfield is not quite as “safe Labour” as the history might suggest superficially. Gloria de Piero won in 2010 by a majority of under half a point (0.4%, 192 votes) from a LibDem.
While de Piero’s majority increased in 2015 (as the LibDems imploded), in 2017 she beat the Conservative candidate by less than one point (0.9%, 441 votes). An Ashfield Independent came third with over 9% of the vote.
In 2019, Lee Anderson won convincingly: 39.3% of the vote, followed in second (27.6%) by another “Ashfield Independent”, Jason Zadrozny [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Zadrozny], who has had a chequered political and personal history. In third place came Labour, with only 24.4%.
Zadrozny is going to contest the seat at GE 2024.
So far, apart from Anderson (who may or may not be standing as Conservative Party candidate, depending on whether he gets back the Conservative whip), only the Ashfield Independent and Reform UK are presently known to be likely to stand at GE 2024, but a full field is almost guaranteed. There may be a dozen or more candidates.
At first, I thought that Anderson could probably be written off as post-GE 2024 MP, but now am not so sure. He has now (whether by design or not) distanced himself from the unpopular Conservative leadership —and possibly from the equally-unpopular Conservative Party— is anti-EU, anti-migration invasion etc, and is now known nationwide. He must have at least a chance of retaining his seat. If he does, and if he also retains it as a “Conservative” MP, he might be one of 100 or even as few as 50 such MPs. Who knows what might then happen?“
[from this blog on a previous day].
It may be that Anderson would be better off electorally standing either for Reform UK or as Independent than he would be as a Conservative Party candidate. Voters like “celebrity”; look at how Caroline Lucas has built up her constituency vote at Brighton Pavilion over the years, and that despite Green Party candidates elsewhere generally losing their deposits with votes under 5%.

I happened to see the communique below from Laura Towler of Patriotic Alternative:
“Morning all. Bit of an update about Sam as he’s still under direction not to talk about his trial on social media.
He is being sentenced on Friday. There is a chance he will get a custodial sentence, but there is also the possibility he won’t. We are preparing for the worst but hoping for the best. It’s a weird feeling right now because we don’t know whether this will be our last week together for a while, but despite this Sam is in a good place. When you can hold your head up high and honestly say your intentions were good, and when you have the truth on your side, you can take whatever is thrown at you.
Sam has recorded a video that will be uploaded after Friday, sharing his thoughts and a message for you all. If he gets a custodial sentence, that will be how he speaks. If he walks away a free man, he will be able to post again.
Pictures are from last week when we went away for a few nights as a family and it was really lovely to spend that time together.“
