A thought out of season

I was just thinking about those who have declared themselves enemies over the past 14 years. The majority have died; others are almost dead; yet others have suffered various severe blows of Fate.

“Someone or other”, back in the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s, “was right”, was he not?…

Toby Young is a total puppet of the UK Jewish lobby and Israel. Das ist’s!

“Them” (((them))). Again.

[Israel-puppet Starmer-stein, and Angela Rayner, “bending the knee” for black mobs]

I have no idea who that woman is but she parrots the usual Labourite nonsense that one hears from the likes of Lisa Nandy, Rachel Reeves, and other Labour careerist clowns and “multiculturalists”: “our communities“, “our NHS” etc.

They speak a different language, a kind of pseudo-communitarian gobbledegook about how “people” would “get on together” entirely happily, were it not for “divisive rhetoric” from Reform, Restore, or the “far right” (or others).

My strong feeling is that people such as that useless woman are going to be swept away in coming years.

[“Could Henry Nowak have survived? Dr. Krzysztof Magier @DrMagier, a pediatrician and former honorary consul of the Republic of Poland in Cowes, analyzed footage from a police body camera showing Henry Nowak’s death. Dr. Magier heads the pediatric intensive care unit, with experience in combat medicine training and a specialized course in treating severe injuries (including gunshot and stab wounds). He disagrees with the pathologist’s and judge’s opinion that Henry Nowak had no chance of survival and that handcuffing him essentially changed nothing. On the contrary—there is a high likelihood that the police intervention contributed to his death. He analyzed the autopsy report, which points to damage to the subclavian vein as the main source of bleeding, and explains where the problem lies. In a healthy person, venous bleeding occurs under low pressure and often self-limits thanks to the naturally forming clot, while simply approximating the wound edges and compressing the surrounding tissues closes the vein enough to slow or even stop the bleeding. The body camera footage shows that when police arrived on the scene (likely 5-10 minutes after the injury), Henry was conscious enough to speak quite loudly. He was therefore not yet in a terminal state. After his arms were twisted behind his back and handcuffed, the vein was most likely stretched, the clot torn, and bleeding dramatically intensified. Within just about three minutes, he lost consciousness and died. People with suspected internal injuries should never be moved or yanked abruptly—such actions can destroy the natural clot and lead to massive internal hemorrhage. Instead of immediately calling a medical rescue team and handing the patient over to paramedics, the police handcuffed him. If paramedics had arrived first on the scene, Henry’s chances of survival would have been much higher. “50%”—writes Dr. Magier. Paramedics could have quickly started an IV, administered fluids to increase circulating blood volume, and tranexamic acid to stabilize the clot, and if needed, performed needle decompression (inserting a large, long needle into the lung), because the issue wasn’t so much lack of lung function, but compression of the blood-filled lung on the heart and mediastinum, which blocks circulation. Worse still, the incident took place just a few minutes’ drive by car (2–3 minutes by ambulance with sirens) from Southampton University Hospital—a regional Major Trauma Centre equipped with a full team of specialists, procedures, and equipment. “I am convinced that if Henry had arrived there alive, the doctors would not have let him die”—writes Dr. Magier. In summary: the aggressive police intervention, instead of saving a life, led to death through improper handling of a severely injured person, even though world-class care was just minutes away. “I fear the Judge and pathologist were too lenient toward the police”—writes Dr. Magier.”]

Looks like the police might face a civil action on that basis, potentially.

I rarely support what the Israelis do, but had this murder taken place in Israel/Palestine, had the victim been a Jew, and had the murderer been a Palestinian Arab, the house of the murderer responsible would have been demolished by a bulldozer regardless of the culpability or not of the murderer’s family (in this case, the mother has already been found guilty of an ancillary offence, and others of the family have been charged and arraigned).

That stupid Labourite woman on the Peston TV show should see this, though she is the type that is impervious to evidence that challenges her ingrained views. “Second and third generation…” too. Happens in Belgium, the UK, Germany, France, Scandinavia, and elsewhere. We need to clear them out, and save what is left of Europe.

Whatever it takes.

Yes, everything worthwhile in the UK was built by British or other closely-associated white European people. The problem is that lesser breeds are now infesting much of it (the country and its institutions). Politically and socially-subversive types also infest our institutions, often at a high level.

We are on the downward path.

[“The rife anti-white filth that has infected Britain goes so much further than the police – that cancer runs much, much deeper.

Young white men – treated like dirt exactly because they are white. It is blatant racism, and politicians should have the courage to say so.

Our institutions now seem perfectly comfortable judging people by the colour of their skin, provided that skin happens to be white.

Universities. Hospitals. Councils. Military. Police. It is EVERYWHERE.

White British men are told we are privileged regardless of our circumstances. We are told we should sit quietly by whilst opportunities, resources and funds are deliberately allocated to ethnic minorities.

I say no. Enough.

This has happened as a white British boy died in the street, begging for help. Ignored and left to die, because an ethnic minority murderer accused him of racism.

But outlining the issue is not enough. Not now. No more talk. We need solutions.

Identifying the rot is only the beginning. Here is what a Restore Britain Government will do to rip it out.

  • Repeal the Equality Act 2010 in full, and repeal the laws it replaced, especially the various iterations of the Race Relations Act.

Initially sold as a simple non-discrimination duty in public places, these Acts have over time amounted to a series of escalating discriminatory attacks on white people.

The 2000 amendment imposed a statutory duty upon public bodies to ‘promote racial equality’ following the MacPherson Report. We’re told this Act supposedly prohibits racial discrimination, but the principles it enshrined in law are now being used to promote racial discrimination against white people. It is unacceptable, and has reached far beyond its original remit.

The Equality Act 2010 consolidated all of the previous Race Relations Acts into one anti-white monstrosity.

  • Repeal all laws which punish ‘racist’ speech, including Part III of the Public Order Act 1986 – which criminalises ‘incitement to racial hatred’.
  • Repeal law which requires courts to treat racial hostility as an aggravating factor when sentencing offences.
  • Replace it all with one simple act that ensures every British citizen is equal before the law and positively outlaws anti-white discrimination, so as to prevent activist judges from reading their own prejudices into the law.
  • Ban race-based, sex-based and religion-based quotas in public bodies and private companies.
  • Prohibit recruitment schemes restricted to particular ethnic groups.
  • End mandatory DEI training across government, local authorities, police and NHS bodies.
  • Ban positive discrimination in hiring and promotion.
  • Outlaw race-specific graduate schemes and internships.
  • End taxpayer funding for DEI officers or schemes across the entire public sector.

Restore Britain is committed to rooting out all laws, practices, and norms that systematically discriminate against white people.

It will end. I promise you that.

A Restore Britain Government will restore fairness for all.

That includes white people.“]

[Rupert Lowe MP]

Very positive from Lowe.

In fact, the Reform/Restore rivalry, though a problem in terms of vote-splitting at elections, is a great thing in terms of moving the “Overton Window”. Already we see that the public discourse is moving, and quite rapidly moving now.

Farage and Reform are scrabbling to keep up with Lowe and Restore, and the public, many of them, are up front with Restore in terms of their views, in my judgment, even though Reform is still far better known, and has a higher profile (as has Farage). Lowe is also willing to stand up a bit against the Jewish lobby, against kosher/kashrut slaughter etc.

As for the Con-selfservatives, they have been left far behind, despite the recently-increased propaganda support in the msm. Toast.

As said, though, what matters is that the public mood is fast-hardening against the decline in our society.

I agree with Ms. Meaden. No kneeling. Only concrete action.

Another “beggar on horseback” (as in “if a beggar is given a horse, he rides it to death“). Get rid of him and all like him.

Jones is exposed as a complete sycophant, liar, and puppet of Mandelson, the deviant Jew tied in with the sex criminal Epstein and the rest of that Jew/Israeli cabal, who ran a huge Israeli honeytrap, espionage and intelligence operation for years, drawing in everyone from Clinton to “Prince” Andrew (Andrew Windsor) and hundreds of others. Arrest them all.

They think that replacing one joker with another will win the game. I doubt it; the whole pack consists of anti-British elements.

I take little interest in sports, but it is a nice picture.

Quite interesting, and for me reminiscent of the house by Lewisham Park, a Victorian/Edwardian park in south-east London (between Lewisham and Catford), where I lived for a year (1983-84), until I started my law degree at the superannuated age of 28. I had a large room with a kitchenette, a sitting area with sofas and armchairs, and a door onto a tiny high-walled private garden separate from the main garden.

I piled my bed high with soft sheepskins, and subsisted much of the time on grechka (boiled, then fried, buckwheat grains) and lemon tea.

My landlady there was a rather frosty dragon called Mrs. Moore who, in the mid/late 1940s, had been an officer of military intelligence in India. She always called military intelligence “MI“.

Mrs. Moore lived, like me, on the ground floor, and was very strict about her tenants (of which I believe there were several, though I rarely saw or even heard anyone) notifying their presence or absence via a system of wooden slats by the large front door. Those slats said “In”, “Out”, or “Away” by a list of the room numbers; “Away” was for when people expected to be out overnight or longer.

One night I was “away” but notified only “out”, so Mrs Moore did not double-bolt the front door. I was criticized by her for my failure, and the consequent potential security breach, when I returned the following day.

That house was later demolished (late 1980s, I think), and a sheltered housing building, St. Mauritius House, hugely ugly (one can view it via Google Earth), constructed on the site. Today, a passer-by would have no idea that a pleasant little bit of 19th/20thC social history and domestic architecture ever existed there.

Times past…

[“This is the woman who, as a Tory Minister, declared that ‘Trans women are Women’.

She also oversaw a law (for my maternity leave) that described me as a ‘pregnant person’ so as not to offend trans people. Even after backlash, she would not include the word ‘woman’. We had to settle on ‘mother’.

And she plans to come back and lead the Party.

The Conservative Party should be apologising to the country for its Great Betrayal on DEI.

Never trust them.“]

Why are msm outlets giving a washed-up ex-MP like Penny Mordaunt any airtime? Is there really some idea that she might become an MP again? Highly unlikely. A GE might not be until 2029, and she is already 53.

“In April 2025, Mordaunt began a part-time paid role with British American Tobacco, as part of its transformation advisory board; she also started paid work with maritime technology company Sub Sea Craft.[97][98]

In July 2025, she co-authored a report into antisemitism in the UK with Labour peer Lord Mann commissioned by the Board of Deputies of British Jews.[99]

In September 2025, Mordaunt was appointed President of the Southend-based charity, The Music Man Project, which provides music education and performance opportunities to people with disabilities. She succeeded former Southend West MP David Amess.[100]“

[Wikipedia]

The Jewish lobby favour her; I suppose that explains why she is still occasionally on TV.

Incidentally, while she was, technically, a Cabinet minister, it was only for 85 days!

I think that the directors of such anti-British companies should be held personally accountable.

[“Extraordinary testimony from Oliver Robbins to the foreign affairs select committee:

  • he was subject to “constant pressure” from No 10 when he arrived in the foreign office to get Peter Mandelson in post asap.
  • fcdo was urged to allow Mandelson’s appointment as ambo without usual vetting process – but dept pushed back and it eventually went ahead.
  • Downing Street took a “dismissive” attitude to vetting & Mandelson was given access to fcdo, low classification ID & higher classification briefings before he was actually granted clearance.
  • he confirms he had not told anybody in No 10 about the UKSV decision.”]

That translates to a Commons with about 355 Reform UK MPs (solid majority), 78 Greens (very weak official Opposition), 74 LibDems, 49 Cons, 45 SNP, and 23 Lab, meaning that 380 persons currently sitting as Labour MPs are not so far from losing their jobs, losing their status, and losing their salaries, expenses, perks etc. Once again, on those figures Starmer would lose his own seat.

Our animal friends.

Says it all. The only mistake in that 3-4 minute clip is where he says that Starmer is a solicitor (he’s a barrister).

Both System parties are running out of road, indeed effectively have run out of road.

For the red squirrel problem, breed and/or release pine martens, who prey only on the greys (not a full or final solution to the decline in the red squirrel population, but would stop the steep decline).

As to the ever-reducing proportion of real (white, European) British people in Britain, another solution, or other solutions, may be required.

When I lived for several months in Egypt, about 28 years ago, I realized myself, and also was told by others, that the locals not only are careless about the lives and welfare of animals, birds, and sea-life, but actually take pleasure in hurting and killing them. You may or may not decide that the blame lies with backward Islamic culture (they might have developed that way under some other religion/culture), but that is how they are.

Many of the other backward peoples of the Earth are no better and, now that we no longer control them via European imperial rule, we cannot ameliorate, in “their own countries”, the symptoms of their backwardness. What we can do, however, given the will, is to prevent them coming to the UK and other parts of Europe, and also remove or eliminate those already here.

[“This is a man who desires nothing more than to be admired, whose entire shtick revolves around presenting himself as a hero worthy of envy and emulation (lest we forget, he ‘identifies with Gandhi and Martin Luther King’). To people like Maugham, any perceived diminution of what they believe to be their exalted status feels like a mortal attack, which is why every loss must be spun as a win, and black must be made to be white if the facts threaten his self-image.

He’s just the latest in a long line of people on social media who think they’re dealing me a fatal blow by telling me I’ve lost popularity, that my legacy is tarnished or that former fans hate me. None of these people appear to grasped yet that I’m completely indifferent to being disliked by people I’ve never met, especially those I do not respect because of their online behaviour or what I believe to be their irrational and illiberal views.

Maugham is a textbook narcissist who can’t believe that everyone else doesn’t live life with an unceasing thirst for validation from complete strangers. In spite of the fact that we’ve never met, and that as the years have rolled by I’ve been very open about the fact that I find his public behaviour increasingly bizarre, he seems to genuinely believe that the loss of his approval will cause me anguish. In reality, it’s a welcome source of ongoing entertainment, so long may he continue.“]

I wish people in this country would not use Yiddish words in ordinary discourse but, leaving that aside, J.K. Rowling is quite right about that Maugham person. Anyone who (like me) saw his appearance a few years ago on Christmas University Challenge (alumni version of the famous TV quiz show) could not fail to be struck by Maugham’s combination of massive self-esteem and equally huge ignorance on pretty much any topic or question.

I fear that, in this country, the status of “KC” (King’s Counsel), has become as devalued as that of “Professor” and others.

[“Facial recognition isn’t the end point, it’s the infrastructure.

Let me explain.

Step 1: introduce the technology for a “reasonable” purpose

crime prevention
public safety
efficiency

Step 2: normalise it
“law abiding citizens have nothing to fear”
only used in limited cases, nothing to worry about

Step 3: expand its use
more locations
more databases
more integration with other systems

Step 4: connect it
ID systems
Digital banking Currency
Travel
online access
public services

Step 5: enforce through it
access granted or denied
movement tracked
behaviour monitored

By that point, it’s no longer optional, that’s how digital control systems are built through layers.

Once the infrastructure exists, it rarely stays limited.

What it’s used for today is what it makes possible tomorrow.“]

[“The Mail on Sunday can reveal today that Keir Starmer’s team received a briefing from security sources in 2023 about Peter Mandelson that included:

  • The revelation his friendship with Epstein dated back to 2006
  • The pair were being monitored by Russian intelligence, who viewed their relationship as “close”
  • Soviet intelligence began targeting Mandelson as far back as the late 1980’s
  • British and EU intelligence officials were so concerned about his business links with Putin ally Oleg Deripaska they advised him to cut off links. Including ending his use of Deripaska’s private jet.”]

In my view, most Jews, with their —almost-always— dual (or even triple) loyalties, cannot be employed in government.

Farage himself triggered such speculation by allowing to join Reform a whole host of washed-up ex-Con politicians, some of them non-European, some of them guilty former expenses cheats.

For me, there is only one reason to hope that Reform UK does well, and that is to use it as a battering-ram to break down the existing rigged System-party scam by mortally-wounding both Lab and Con.

The amount of vegetables that can be grown on a small patch, say 20 x 20 feet (400 square feet, which is only about 1% of an acre) is incredible. Ask Google AI.

Some types of food crop need virtually no skill or effort to grow; examples include broccoli, tomato, peppers, cucumber, courgettes.

Obviously, horticultural skill, husbandry effort, varieties planted, and installed glasshouses (which may be basic or may have automated irrigation, temperature control, sun control etc) make a big difference to volume grown but, in principle, much can be grown without great expense, knowledge, or effort.

For example, in the South of England, in the open, a plot 20 x 20 feet might result in an annual broccoli crop of between 100 and 400 pounds weight.

We in the UK, and elsewhere, are looking at the possibility of social and economic breakdown in the coming decades. Anyone with at least some land, even if only a suburban garden, should be looking at ways to supplement external food supplies and/or stored canned food with home-produced fruit and vegetables.

If you want to know why people are desperately casting around for a political alternative to the LibLabCon System parties, the above is at least part of the reason. There is no one obvious alternative to Lab/Con, but a number of contending parties are getting traction: Reform UK, Green Party, Restore Britain are the best-known.

At some point, landlord parasitism has to be reined-in.

…and without white populations, the black “states” of Africa and the Caribbean etc will return to barbarism. In fact that is already happening, but is partly-disguised by the existence of (dwindling) white European minorities in countries such as South Africa, Zimbabwe (former Rhodesia) and elsewhere, by the presence also of foireign aid projects, also by the work of NGOs helping with both expertise and money, and further by the presence of “Western” (European, North American etc) capitalist enterprises running oilfields, mines, banks, manufacturing plants etc.

Quite.

I propose the following: that anyone should have the right to go to university, so long as the university itself is willing to accept that applicant, but that only the top 10% of applicants (however determined, and there would be a debate to be had about how to define the “top 10%“) should get grants for full tuition costs, and full (as decided) subsistence costs.

The next layer, say 30% of applicants, would have their tuition paid but not their living costs, and they would have to take out student loans for that, which loans would have to be repaid in the future, no matter what.

The remaining 60% of applicants would also have to take out student loans, but for both tuition and subsistence.

Harsh, yes, but I think necessary.

One could imagine also that students willing to undertake studies particularly favoured by the State might get bonus amounts, if approved as suitable, just as Army, Navy, Marine, and Air Force scholarships are presently paid to suitable students at UK universities, which students undertake to serve as officers for a few years after graduation.

Why not extend that to a range of studies directly useful to the State or society generally?

In fact, persons willing to train vocationally but not at university, in fields useful to the State or society, people such as nurses, plumbers, bricklayers etc, should also be able to get grants.

Rather different to the picture usually painted by the Jews, “antifascists” etc…

I myself have been called, a few times in the past, though not very often, on Twitter and elsewhere, “a knuckledragger” (only once, I think), “stupid“, “idiot“, “needing education” etc, despite my having been tested (1980s, admittedly) at IQ 156.

As a matter of fact, correspondence I have seen suggests that the Jew-Zionist cabals at least (i.e. not the “antifascist” loonies) paint a rather different picture of me when they have complained to “the authorities” about me. After all, if your opponent is a stupid or silly fellow, why is he such an alleged danger to society?

Imagine that: as late as 1941, there were still 70,000 Jews living freely in, not even the Reich as a whole, but just in Berlin itself! After 2 years of war, and after 8 years of National Socialist government!

Again, the picture of National Socialist Germany painted by the “approved” System historians and the Jew-Zionist element is seen to be largely untrue.

Stop importing a million blacks, browns and Chinese (etc) every year. Start getting rid of unwanted individuals and groups. Make rent-parasitism, and buy-to-let landlordism etc illegal.

No matter how many houses you build, the influx of migrant-invaders (and breeding by them and those already embedded here) will outstrip the supply.

The council-house sell-offs of the 1980s/1990s were disastrous for society. The present housing crisis was partly caused by that, partly by the subsequent and partly consequent buy-to-let explosion, and partly by reason of the migration invasion.

A good idea. In Downing Street itself, not in Whitehall.

If the Suez Canal is blocked, as well as the Strait of Hormuz, the economic consequences for Europe especially will be huge.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week a convincing victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored a modest 21/. My score was 6/10. I did not know that answers to questions 2, 4, 6, and 7.

Talking point

I happened to see again the following, a blog post I published nearly 2 years ago in 2024:

“Basic Income

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockton,_California#Experiment_in_Guaranteed_Basic_Income

“As part of a privately funded experiment in Universal Basic Income in 2019, the Stockton Economic Empowerment Demonstration (S.E.E.D.) conducted a pilot project that gave a $500 stipend to 125 randomly selected residents for an 24-month period with “no strings attached.“[51] “

[Wikipedia]

“SEED was a Randomized Control Trial that distributed $500 a month for 24 months to 125 recipients. The cash was unconditional, with no strings attached and no work requirements, and recipients were selected randomly from neighborhoods at or below Stockton’s median household income.

Results gathered from the first year, which spanned February of 2019 to February of 2020, found recipients obtained full-time employment at more than twice the rate of non-recipients. Recipients were less anxious and depressed, both over time and compared to the control  group. They also saw statistically significant improvements in emotional health, fatigue levels and overall well being. Recipients had a greater ability to pay for unexpected expenses.

People spent the SEED money on basic needs, including food (nearly 37%), sales/merchandise (22%, on home goods, clothes/shoes and discount/dollar stores), utilities (11%) and auto costs (10%). Less than 1% was spent on alcohol and/or tobacco.”

https://www.stocktondemonstration.org/press-landing/guaranteed-income-increases-employment-improves-financial-and-physical-health

In my view, Basic Income must be the way to go, with AI and robotics impacting employment and set to do so more. The alternative to Basic Income is to have a tiny sliver of the population ultra-wealthy, a wider layer wealthy, and about 80% of the population near-destitute.“

I think that that is even more obvious in 2026.

Perhaps, after Reform UK gets into government but then fails to satisfy the needs of the British people, real social-national politics will come to the fore.

Also, with such a small gene pool to work from, if their ancestors had strong dark triad traits, it’s certain that most living descendants today also have them which explains this awful behaviour below.“]

“Israel bombing Beirut 100 times in … 10 minutes.”

“In a densely populated urban area.”

“I’m starting to get this nagging feeling that Israel doesn’t really want this ceasefire.”

“Israel claims in all of these buildings, there are terrorists doing terrorist things.”

The UK could have cheap gas, maybe even free gas, if the UK were to leave NATO and cultivate better relations with Russia.

Reminds me a bit of my own three years in Australia, aged 10-13, during the years 1967, 1968, 1969.

The first book on the Reich I ever read, I being a precocious 10 years old. It was on the shelves of the house in Mosman, Sydney (on the slopes of the bay of Middle Harbour) that my parents rented for a few months before they bought a house not far away.

Years later, I understood how one-sided and indeed inaccurate Shirer’s propaganda-work was, but you have to start somewhere. Parsifal was “a pure fool, slowly wise“…

So she took a photo of the heavily damaged airport to show her airline that her safety was at risk.

Dubai’s public relations people did a good job for decades, presenting a country which has an autocratic and, at best, mediaeval form of government and law, and also a Dark Ages religion underpinning that society, as a modern go-ahead and, above all, safe-for-foreigners place to holiday or to buy a second home, but that was then. All that is now shattered.

Happened to see a BBC News report today. Russian attacks reported on, but no mention of the continuing, indeed continual, Kiev-regime drone attacks on Russian territory. One-sided.

What? Starmer-stein, aka “Tel Aviv Keith”, refuses to criticize Israel? Surely not…

More seriously, one does not expect it. Starmer is completely in the Jew-Zionist Israel-lobby pocket. In fact, he is only where he is because the Jewish lobby or Israel lobby put him there.

It is not because Starmer’s wife is Jewish that he is so pro-Jewish and pro-Israel, but naturally that must play at least a minor part. His children are being brought up as if fully-Jewish too, apparently. I have tried to find a photo of Starmer wearing one of those little skullcaps (a “yarmulka“), but have so far been unable to find one.

As I blogged a few days ago, the American ship of state is now rudderless, and has a maniac at the wheel.

Talking point

More tweets

As I blogged several years ago, when the fact was a surprise to me, Starmer is utterly clueless.

Starmer-stein has as much charisma, and as much political and geopolitical understanding, as a speak-your-weight machine. The difference is that such a machine is more accurate, and more honest. Also, more useful.

There was once a BBC Radio 4 series, What is the Point of…?, which looked at various institutions and traditions, such as Formula One car racing.

Starmer-stein has no point at all, except for the UK Jewish lobby, and even they now tire of him, because he has to keep the non-white voters, the Pakistani and other Muslims especially, onside, because they are now the only voting bloc keeping Labour from being a party with about 10% support at the next GE, which would mean existential collapse in the Labour vote.

Translates to a Commons with about 375 Reform UK MPs (very solid majority), 73 Cons (extremely weak official Opposition), 54 LibDems, 47 Greens, 43 SNP, 32 Lab [etc].

You can see why the Jewish/Israel lobby is now fairly firmly behind Reform UK. Because Reform is probably going to win, as matters now stand. Therefore, via Farage, and especially Tice, the fix is in.

Forget the old “Right/Left” nonsense. Goodwin needs to rethink his support for the Jewish lobby and Israel. He has been “on a journey”; perhaps that journey has not yet reached its final exit…

In fact, to a large extent, Britain is already no longer Britain. Goodwin, of course, was born in 1981, whereas I was born in that very significant year 1956 (Khrushchev’s Secret Speech, Suez, the Hungarian Uprising etc). He is therefore 25 years younger than me. He never knew the 1960s or 1970s, not that they too did not have problems and issues.

I think that the difference is that, in the 1960s, 1970s, Britain had problems, yes, but they were solvable by intelligent thought and action. Also, the UK was overwhelmingly white European, and the now-ubiquitous drug abuse was not nearly so prevalent in the general population.

In the 1960s, 1970s, Britain’s problems might have been solved without dictatorship, without firing squads, without civil/racial/cultural war. Now? Uncertain. Maybe not.

Of course, Goodwin is right about “mainstream” (((mainstream))) publishing.

I took the manuscript of my (today, still-unpublished) 1989/1990 book, The End of the Millennium and the New Age of Alexander, to a rather prestigious Anglo-American literary agency on Fifth Avenue in New York City. 1991 or thereabouts.

I met with a young and very “preppy” American editor (at a guess, a “Yaley”), who was extremely pleasant and polite. He said that he would read the manuscript. A while later, I received a very pleasant letter from him (together with the manuscript), which said, inter alia, something very like “Ian…Thanks for letting me have a crack at it. It is undoubtedly the most remarkable work I have ever read…it will never be published in New York.“

Of course, the reason it could never be published in New York is because (as in the entire Anglosphere), the Jewish element has, either directly or indirectly, a stranglehold over the publishing industry (etc).

Perhaps, now that publishing and technology has moved more online over the past 35 years, I should dig it out and publish it myself, either as paper copy or online.

It is already online, most of it, but not publicly-accessible.

My own “Mein Kampf”?

Britain should leave NATO anyway, and ditch the entirely mythical “Special Relationship” with the USA, which is now meaningless, pointless (for the UK), and a one-way (wrong-way) street.

Britain should drop all anti-Russia sanctions, cultivate far better relations with Russia and, as a result, not only get cost-price oil and gas but also a giant market for British goods.

[“After having looked at the police “abolishing” Non-Crime Hate Incidents, they are not. All they are doing is changing the rules for when they should record them.

NCHI’s can still be recorded if the officer believes they are “relevant to policing for preventing or solving crime, safeguarding individuals or communities or fulfilling other statutory policing purposes”.

Basically the officer just has to come up with any excuse that fits into that reasoning, which will be extremely easy because it’s so purposefully vague, and they can still record it.

So essentially, absolutely nothing has changed. This entire thing was a complete pantomime.“]

Not quite. The Overton Window has shifted. The toytown KGB (UK police) and CPS are less likely now (as compared to several years ago) to take online comment (especially comment not actually sent directly to an individual) as a kind of sub-“terrorism “, if only because the courts now tire of the nonsense (most of which comes from the Israel lobby/Jewish lobby pressure groups).

Even the above graphic tells only a partial story. There is no mention of numerous groups and individuals, such as the malicious, perjuring “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], the snoop and strongarm organization known as the “Community Security Trust” [“CST”], and “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”], among others.

When they worm their way in and really embed themselves, it is a devil of a job to root them out.

A point I have been making on the blog for years, and one that I also made repeatedly (prior to mid-2018, when a pack of Jews procured my expulsion) on Twitter.

I am inclined to agree. Most voters still hate and despise the main System parties, so Reform will probably still do well at a general election, but if Farage can get Reform to the point where it totally underwhelms real English/British voters, then the next GE might result in a hung Parliament. Farage can then still pose as Prime Minister, but will not have to do anything really radical, such as stopping or even pausing all migration, or deporting even the “illegal” migrant invaders.

“They” (((the usual suspects))) are probably behind the plan.

However, “their” plan may backfire, resulting in emergence of real social nationalism on the large scale.

RAUS!

Monkeyworld UK (again).

Wake up.

You, meaning the self-styled political and mass media “elites” in the UK, wanted mass immigration, and wanted the immigrants to breed, and for their descendants to have full “civil rights” and “integration”.

Well, look at the result when a society goes black, and the UK is not even fully there…yet.

Think Haiti, Liberia, much of the rest of Africa. Look at how Zimbabwe has gone (down) since it stopped being Rhodesia (1980), look at how South Africa has gone (down) in the past 30+ years since halfwit Mandela and then his successors were put into power, prompting mass white European emigration.

Perhaps the SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority) should read what I have had to say over the years about dishonest and incompetent solicitor Mark Lewis (all my blog posts are available via the search box on the blog).

About time. For the past 12 years, malicious Jews connected with the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” have been making false allegations against me, a campaign of harassment that ended with my free speech trial (2023) and sentencing hearing (2024). See:

[“At the end stands Victory“]

Of course, the “CAA” Jews will still pretend that some tweets, blog posts, cartoons etc are “unlawful” by reason of the “grossly offensive” provision in the discredited Communications Act 2003, s. 127. That provision was set to be repealed, and repeal was recommended by the Law Commission (I myself am mentioned by name at the end of that Law Commission report, and thanked) but the “CAA” and other Jews involved in the repression of free speech lobbied heavily at Westminster against repeal. As a result, that bad law (very badly-drafted, and chilling of free speech) is still on the statute book.

However, it is now harder than it was for the evil and malicious “CAA” goblins to make allegations and/or to have them taken seriously or even semi-seriously by the police, Crown Prosecution Service, and Government. Consequently, the “CAA” has been forced to pursue its “Israel first” “lawfare” at its own expense, by launching private criminal prosecutions, such as that against Reginald D. Hunter, the black American comedian, and Nick Griffin, the one-time chief of the BNP etc.

In the Reginald D. Hunter case, the district judge not only threw out the “CAA” prosecution, but trenchantly criticized the “CAA” and its dishonesty and motivations. He also ordered that a copy of his remarks should be appended to all future “CAA” private prosecutions for perusal of the trial judge and any preliminary judges.

The “CAA” goblins are now seeking a High Court judicial review of that determination (presumably both the material case determination and the order to append transcript copies of the judgment to future “CAA” private prosecutions).

In the Nick Griffin case, there will be heard (I think in May) an application by the defendant to stop the prosecution from proceeding. Good luck to him and, as the Germans might say, Gott strafe die Kobolde! (“God punish the goblins!“).

The LibDems have been fortunate in having their voting support concentrated in a fairly small number of (usually leafy and affluent) parts of the UK. They still have 72 MPs. Had their support been spread more evenly over the country, they would have no MPs at all.

Incidentally, that latest opinion poll would result in a Commons with about 264 Reform UK MPs (62 short of an overall majority), 108 Cons (weak official Opposition), 92 Greens, 65 LibDems, 49 Lab, 45 SNP [etc].

What that poll says to me is that potential voters are totally underwhelmed by the poor electoral choices offered to them. They are only supporting —and not fervently— either Reform or Green because the other choices, the System parties, are so dire, so discredited, so despised and hated.

Monkeyworld UK.

Do you really think that you can even maintain the present form of society, let alone create a more advanced one, when an increasing proportion of the overall population is composed of backward elements, and when society panders to those backward elements, rather than controlling, repressing, or eliminating them?

Starmer-stein is that very rara avis, a would-be dictator who cannot make up his mind, cannot stick to a policy or (professed) principle, and has no ideological direction at all (beyond support for “World Jewry”).

The American ship of state is rudderless, and has a maniac at the wheel.

Though unexplained by the tweeter, this is a powerful sign in Irish folklore. According to Google AI:

“In folklore and spiritual belief, an encounter with three  hares—especially when one breaks the pattern to look at you—is often interpreted as a powerful, personal sign from the “otherworld” or the universe. 

The Symbolism of Three Hares

  • The Sacred Number: The number three has long represented divine unity—such as the Holy Trinity in Christianity, or the Maiden, Mother, and Crone in Paganism.
  • The Infinite Cycle: Because the motif often shows them in a circular chase, an encounter with three is seen as a physical manifestation of the cycles of life, death, and rebirth. 

The Meaning of the “Stare”

  • A Personal Message: Folk belief suggests that if a hare pauses to look at you, it is “recognising” you. This is often interpreted as a call to trust your intuition or a sign that a major transformation is coming “softly at first, then all at once”.
  • A Call for Stillness: Spiritual interpretations of hares pausing suggest a need for internal stillness before taking a decisive action in your life.

Summary of Interpretations

Detail Symbolic Meaning
Encountering ThreeUnity, the Trinity, or a complete cycle of life/time.
The One that StopsA specific message for you; a break in the “infinite loop”.
The Direct StareRecognition from the spirit world; an invitation to use your intuition.
Running OffThe fleeting nature of luck or a sign to follow a “new path”.

I wonder how such traditions started, presumably thousands of years ago.

Perhaps enough, probably enough, to seize Kharg Island, but little more. If American troops seize that island, it becomes a giant bullseye for Iran, and the occupying troops will face constant attack. They would die so that Jews in Israel might live. Does the brainwashed American public understand that?

Thoughts about the potential restructuring of society in the UK

Unsophisticated, of course, but broadly right (leaving aside the personalities). As Jack London said, “I am a socialist, but a white man first.“

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_London

Britain needs a synthesis of old-style socialism in some areas of activity, and dynamic private enterprise in others, together with other elements (such as genuine volunteering), and all under the umbrella of, not just a state but a society, one founded on an ethos of European race and culture. The Rudolf Steiner concept of the Threefold Social Order is more or less the right template, in principle.

Lenin saw that pure socialism or “War Communism” could not, literally could not, produce the goods, certainly not with people and circumstances as they were in the 1920s; Lenin therefore implemented the New Economic Policy even before the Soviet Union itself was formally established.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Economic_Policy

[Lenin and cat, Moscow region, early 1920s]

Likewise, Hitler understood that post-WW1 Germany required both a shot in the arm and a restructuring on the basis of European —in that specific case, German— race and culture, and also the excising of certain poisonous and parasitic elements, as well as the State helping to facilitate the success of the “economic element” (private enterprise and enterprises), with the State also regulating that sector for the benefit of workers and arranging for some of the benefits —profits— to be shared by both employees and (via taxation etc) the State, and so the people, the Volk, as a whole.

Actually, reading that Wikipedia article reminded me of a very good law —in my opinion— that they have in Florida: pensions cannot be attached, nor personal residences seized, in order to satisfy creditors or debt judgments.

The UK should have such a law.

In many countries, teachers are educated professionals, inspiring at least a measure of respect. In the UK, many are cultureless, uneducated (in any real sense) dimwits unable to get any other job. Look at any TV quiz show; the schoolteachers are almost always the least knowledgeable.

Look at that teaching union document. It not even endorses but incites the brainwashing of pupils and the intimidation of any teaching staff opposed to migration invasion and/or the multikulti society.

All the fault of the Jew-Zionists, both in Israel and elsewhere (especially those in the UK and USA).

Wherever “they” see a weakness, they attack, not only or always by military means, but also, and in fact more usually, by means of infiltration, using the money power to buy their way in.

That was how Jew-Zionists started to colonize Palestine in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, long before the 1948 establishment of the State of Israel.

Under Ottoman imperial rule, and then under the post-WW1 British Mandate, Jews started to buy up land in Palestine wherever they could. This happened especially around the ancient port of Jaffa. That area slowly became the hub of what is now the large city of Tel Aviv.

The same or at least a similar process happened in the UK in the 19thC and early 20th centuries. The largely effete and, in many cases, short-of-money old aristocrats and “gentry” of England (and even Scotland) sold out for hard cash. There are many examples, even on the record. Jewish women from wealthy families married titled English or Scottish men.

As a matter of fact, there was continuing infiltration into the remnants of the so-called “British aristocracy” even in the 1930s and later. I know of at least one quite, or formerly, famous comedian whose Wikipedia entry mentions his various “noble” antecedents, but not the more recent Jewish ancestry. I suppose that is why that individual used to tweet negatively about me 10-15 years ago…

Still, “no names, no pack drill“, in the now rarely-heard Victorian phrase.

Of course, until about 1950, all (statistical 99% to 100%) immigrants to the British Isles, since ancient times, were of European or, if you prefer, Aryan, or post-Aryan, origin. “White people”, in short.

It’s almost funny that, even when I was a teenage schoolboy, in the early/mid 1970s, you had pro-immigration cretins talking about the ancient “immigrants” to Britain— Romans, Angles, Saxons, Vikings, European Celts, Normans (who were, in reality, Vikings settled in Normandy), Huguenots (Protestant emigrants from France) etc as all “foreign”, and so somehow, notionally, not so very different to the blacks, browns etc who flooded in since the Second World War.

An absolutely stupid, and completely ahistorical, argument.

When I was on trial in 2023-2024 for exercizing my free speech rights, one of the things I was alleged to have published on the blog was the assertion that “wherever Jews exist, in any but small numbers, others lose their freedoms” (or some such, or similar, words). I was told, in effect, that I was quite mistaken as to that…

No comment…

How many “invasions” would that be? Which will be first? Iran? Yemen? Greenland? Canada? Venezuela? Cuba?

None so far…

Dystopian Britain growing in plain sight

A few days ago, I took a trip by car, a round-trip of about 200 miles, something I only do occasionally. The journey, from the central-southern English coast, proved more than challenging. Several long waits behind temporary traffic lights made a 2-hour journey more like 3 hours, and the surfacing of even major roads (such as the major trunk route, the A34) is now appallingly-bad in places.

However, that was only the first impression of the day. The once-interesting (in the1970s) city of Oxford, which for some time has been in a state of redevelopment and economic expansion etc, cannot now be accessed by car without paying a congestion charge (nein danke), and the outer zones have become an unpleasant sprawl. Few of those seen trudging along on the streets are European, let alone English.

The drive back was…interesting…but not in a good way. I thought to avoid the unpleasant A34/M3/M27 experience by driving via Swindon and Salisbury. Well, “man proposes but God disposes“, as they say. The roads were not too busy at first, but then became yet another stationary experience. Several sets of “temporary” traffic lights, the wait at each nearly half an hour by reason of the weight of traffic at “going-home time”. Also, the state of the roads, in places, approaches that of the 18thC. Potholes so big that they could fairly be described as dangerous, surfacing generally very poor.

I suppose it was my fault that I somehow got a little lost in Swindon, not an area I know. When I was in my early/mid teens, in the early 1970s, I would occasionally attend the races at Cheltenham with my parents, and on the drive back to the South Oxfordshire/Berkshire area where we lived, we would call in at the then Trust House Forte “Post House” hotel in the then small and undistinguished railway town of Swindon for something to eat.

The incredible Google AI tells me that “Swindon has grown immensely since the early 1970s, and the area around the hotel reflects that shift:

The Surroundings: When it first opened, it sat in a much more rural setting—essentially on the edge of the town. Today, it is surrounded by residential developments like Liden and Badbury Park, and is very close to the Great Western Hospital complex, which didn’t exist when you were visiting.

The Building: Originally a low-rise 1970s design typical of Trusthouse Forte’s “Post House” brand, it has been significantly modernised and extended over the decades.”

Apparently that hotel is now the local Holiday Inn.

The town itself, though, seems halfway between a rundown area of what looked like council housing estates, and a semi-American (meaning Essex County New Jersey, really) landscape of fast food outlets, supermarkets, malls etc.

The few people I saw on foot were either black/brown (including a couple of Indians or Paki-stanis dismantling or repairing a car by the roadside) or white “youths” all in “hoodies”. Admittedly, I did not go into the very centre of the town, but I was glad to, eventually, find a way out.

The roads between Swindon and Salisbury were, again, in poor repair, and even the roads between Salisbury and the coast were in a terrible state, though apparently being repaired in places (meaning more long waits as lines of endless-seeming cars and trucks were held up by several more sets of temporary traffic lights).

The thought that came to me repeatedly during that unpleasant and long journey (well over 3 hours) was that Britain is just not working. The roads are just a symptom. The whole country is gradually (?) going to literal rack and ruin.

Not a nation, more a parking lot and shopping/housing landscape, and without racial, cultural, or historical integrity.

Were it any other matter, this would be “caviar to the general“, and not much of interest to those outside the Westminster Bubble, but the connection to the Jew Epstein, the “Lolita Express” flights, “the Andrew Formerly Known as Prince” etc makes this what I believe show business people call “box office”.

This war, terrible though it is, is also fascinating in terms of “David and Goliath”, “oblique war” or, if you like, “the war of judo” (using the strength of an opponent against him). Putin is a judo exponent; he will understand that.

I think that the Americans, so used to bombing peoples and states into unavoidable defeat (the carpet-bombing of WW2 Germany; Japan crushed underfoot by atomic bombs on Hiroshima/Nagasaki as well as by enormous conventional bombing of other almost defenceless civilian populations, as at Tokyo; the bombing of Iraq etc) find it hard to compute that a state and people can suffer such bombing as has been inflicted upon Iran, yet not only stand under the attacks but fight back and, indeed, open up new fronts and tactical pressure-points (blocking the Strait of Hormuz except to neutral/friendly shipping, charging USD $2M per ship as a tax or impost, warning the Gulf Arabs off by a few well-chosen missile and drone attacks, as well as hitting their economies hard by preventing much of their production from being exported. Also, scaring off most tourists).

Don’t forget what happened when a couple of buildings were destroyed by (supposedly by) two airliners flown into them in New York City in 2001. Complete panic in the USA, and the Federal Government paralysed by fear for weeks. I saw and heard the aftermath, having flown to Washington from London only a week or so later, on one of the first few flights (which, by the way, was almost empty, and almost devoid of American passengers).

Imagine what would happen were New York City, or other cities, to suffer the kind of bombing seen over the past couple of months in Iran. Total panic.

The Americans, including many at high levels, are simply not able to understand the resilience shown by the Iranian public.

As for Trump and his obsession with (one-sided) “deals”, he is barking up the wrong tree, in my view.

Interesting. I presume conscience, rather than cowardice, in view of the history and ethos of the U.S. Marines.

I met a few ex-members of that Corps in the past. Tough.

Once again, the police behaving like a poundshop Stasi.

About time for what passes for a “British” Government to tell the noisily-demanding Israeli Jews to shut up and get lost.
