I think that the British people, after only a month and two days, have awoken to the fact that they binned one useless misgovernment only to “elect” an even more hopeless and useless Starmer-Labour regime, which is both dictatorial and useless.
Paul Mason is some kind of NWO/ZOG mouthpiece, maybe (and many have suggested this) an agent of the UK security/intelligence services.
I find it very suspicious how his published and broadcast views have morphed over the years, and are actually quite opaque: sometimes quasi-Marxist, sometimes anarcho-syndicalist, sometimes in favour of aspects of finance-capitalism; sometimes all in favour of violent protest, but then often equally in favour of authoritarian clampdowns.
Mason tried several times to get into Parliament but never succeeded. Even Starmer-Labour would not have him.
The common feature in what Mason has said for many years is that he always favours dictatorial limits on free speech and freedom of expression, and he is always hostile to white European self-determination. He himself is a part-Jew.
I noted the above example of Britain’s new poundland Stasi yesterday, as well as the latest visit of the police to my home, about 5-6 weeks ago, which was in relation to comments allegedly made by me on Twitter/X apparently not long ago, which I found puzzling because my Twitter account was permanently shut down in 2018, and I have made no Twitter or Twitter/X posts since then.
Even more puzzling was that the policeman came to my door (he was not invited in and, to be fair to him, did not ask to enter) despite the fact that the (I think) two supposed tweets in question had already been examined by the police and, as he put it, “NFA’d” (“No Further Action”). So why was he even deployed?
Part of the problem here is that “a certain element”, i.e. the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby fanatics, seem to be able to make malicious and untrue “complaints” to police without any consequences for them even after the complaint is shown and proven to be both untrue and malicious.
For example, in 2021, the main active individual in the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, one Stephen Silverman, made an entirely untrue, false, and malicious complaint of “racial harassment” against me. The events are chronicled in the blog post below from 2022:
The complaint made against me was entirely false. I had never had any direct contact with Silverman, did not know his address or telephone number, and had never sent any message of any sort to him. He, however, has been trying to harass me for nearly a decade, by making false allegations of various kinds. His Jewish-Zionist “CAA” cohorts, too.
The CAA admitted on their website that they have been trying to “get” me for 7 years (longer, I think).
Now the making of a false and malicious complaint of that nature is an attempt to pervert the course of justice, a serious crime. In the 2021 case mentioned, though, not only was Silverman never charged with such a crime, but (following political pressure by the “CAA” on police, CPS etc), though I was never charged with “racial harassment”, I was, much later, in 2023, charged (by post) with having posted supposedly “grossly offensive” remarks and cartoons on the blog, nothing to do with the earlier allegation, but still instigated by Silverman and the “CAA”:

The police I have dealt with personally in respect of various matters have ranged from just useless to unpleasant, to actively politicized and biased; and not forgetting their having been extremely ignorant of the very questions of law, history, and civil rights that several of them have claimed to know about.

Starmer’s underlying problem is that he and Labour do not represent more than a small or even tiny number of people. 34% voted Labour at GE 2024, so only a third anyway, but 8 out of 20 people did not vote at all, and even many who voted Labour did so mainly to bin “Conservative” MPs and the Con government of the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak. The real level of support for Starmer-Labour is only around 10% of the adult population.

Readers may like to know that tweeter “@ianmillard100” is not me. I have mentioned him previously. I do not think that he is deliberately passing himself off as me, though. I believe that he is some kind of I.T. specialist from Bath University who has the same name as me and, slightly irritatingly, happens occasionally to tweet the odd view not dissimilar to my own (as seen in the tweet above).
Anyway, my earlier mentions of Paul Mason stand vindicated. He wants to shut down various online services and platforms because they allow a greater level of free speech than he wants.
Paul Mason is not only a socio-political extremist with very murky motives and connections, but (like several members of the Starmer-Labour Cabinet) a would-be tyrant. He has no future, politically, though.
Reminds me of tweets I have seen in the past few days showing the police in the UK breaking into the homes of English protesters, the police very brave when confronted by lone women, pensioners etc…
Incidentally, the crowdfunder set up for Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative (the one in the centre of that tweet photo), his wife Laura Towler, and their 2 children (one born just after Melia was imprisoned) is still running:
Another good fellow who was also imprisoned and has a similar crowdfunder is “Sven Longshanks” (James Allchurch), who may be getting out of prison soon and will need help:
Starmer knows this, and many of his MPs will be looking on nervously, clinging to any scraps of copium. The north of England will now be seeking an alternative political home. If Farage has any sense, he'll pour a LOT of money into those constituencies for the council elections.

He might have added (if he knows) that, while well over 4M people voted Reform UK (more than voted for the LibDems, or the Greens), fewer than 7M voted Conservative, and fewer than 10M voted Labour.
Labour, for all its supposed “landslide”, got only two and a half times the number of votes of Reform UK; not even, in fact.
Out of every 20 eligible voters, only 4 voted Labour. Con 3. Reform UK 2. LibDem 2. Green 1. 8 did not bother to vote.

Fanatical Jew-Zionist barrister Simon Myerson claiming that the National Front “plotted to blow up Jews“. Untrue. Ahistorical nonsense. The National Front was a genuine and legitimate political party, albeit a fairly small or even fringe one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK). Apparently, it still exists, at least in name.
In the 1970s, the National Front was the fourth-largest party in terms of both members and votes, certainly the latter.
As for Myerson, who operates out of Leeds and Manchester, he was recently removed as a Recorder (p/t judge) after having repeatedly abused people on Twitter/X etc, and after having failed to listen to initial “advice” (in effect, an admonishment or reprimand) from the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office.
It may well be that some particular individual NF supporter or member plotted as described by Myerson; have members of the System parties never committed any crimes?
I just spent 4 days in Hungary, a conservative country criticised by elites across the West. I saw no crime. No homeless people. No riots. No unrest. No drugs. No mass immigration. No broken borders. No self-loathing. No chaos. And now I've just landed back in the UK.
I was once in Hungary, for about a week, and 24 years ago (2001). I never went to Budapest, and travelled from the Romanian frontier to the Austrian frontier (which was then also the EU frontier), staying at Szeged (a pleasant town on the river Tisza) and then in a former Soviet-style “sanatorium” (hotel) by Lake Balaton, where my wife and I had a suite with its own external staircase to the lawned gardens which ran down to the lake, in which I was able to swim.
There was a small bust of Lenin in the bar (in the days of socialist rule, pre-1990, there may or may not have been a bar, but there was in 2001).
I liked what I saw of Hungary: civilized, and the people, the ones I met, reliable and decent.

Starmer and Yvette Cooper are tendentious anti-Brit people. They come out of a history of promoting mass immigration into the UK, and are really traitors to the future of the British people. Both members of Labour Friends of Israel.
GB News is routinely criticised when a conservative happens to interview another conservative.
This morning, ex-Labour MP Ed Balls interviewed Labour MP Yvette Cooper about the riots. They are married.
Yvette Cooper and Ed Balls, when both were MPs, were expenses cheats and freeloaders; criminals. Now she, a would-be dictator, and member of Labour Friends of Israel, is trying to shut down what free speech still exists. Evil.
Keir Starmer’s statement today reaffirms that Western governments are totally occupied and will always side with murderous, alien foreigners over their own native people.
They will use these riots to vilify the emerging anti-immigrant consensus and throw the book at everyone.
This is the modern-day equivalent of Norman Tebbit's "Cricket Test". If Britain really is the happy, integrated multicultural country that Labour and liberals tell us it is, then why are mobs of Muslims chanting Allahu Akbar rather than waving the Union Jack?
There are those on “both sides” trying to frame these fights and protests as revolving solely around white people opposed to Islamism and/or Pakistani Muslims.
The rioting Gypsies of Harehills (Leeds) are not Muslim; neither is the alleged Southport killer. All, however, are non-white, non-European, non-British in any real sense.

If that is accurate, and is what Putin has said, it may mean that he has come to certain conclusions about a possible, and possibly inevitable, “solution”.
Not only is there “two-tier policing” in the UK, but there is also two-tier reporting.
I watched a few minutes of a BBC report from a protest in the North of England yesterday evening. The geeky reporter said that he had just been talking to a leader of the “counter-protest” (unnamed, and not described, other than as said; may have been non-white, Jewish, or an English anarchist or Communist, we do not know), who had given his view. Needless to say, the unverified, anonymously-provided information provided by the said “leader of the counter-protest” was neither challenged by the BBC reporter nor balanced by any view from the English protesters. Typical.
Suddenly, we hear the mouthpieces of “the usual suspects” (e.g. Priti Patel, John Woodcock/”Lord Walney” etc) demanding the recall of Parliament.
Is this Starmer-Labour’s “Reichstag Fire” moment, when very repressive laws and/or “temporary” “measures” will be enacted by Starmer at the behest of (((those behind Starmer))), thus enabling a real police state (modelled on, inter alia, the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic regulations) to come into being?

Fanatical loonie Jew-Zionist Lee Kern describes England, or Britain, or the UK, as a “shithole”. He was, I think, born here, brought up here, and worked here, but has as little real connection with our country as some untermensch straight off a rubber boat on the beaches of Kent.
I saw the same phenomenon, though couched rather more politely (surprisingly) when the egregious lawyer, Mark Lewis, abandoned the UK for Israel (he is still returning from time to time to make money, though); that was in 2018, after he was found guilty in the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal.
As for “sense of purpose” in Israel, its only sense of purpose has to do with its losing struggle to survive. I do not know how long the Israeli state can survive, but former heads of MOSSAD and Shin Beth seem pessimistic about it. Arab populations increasing, Israeli population static; nuclear weapons being developed in Iran; conventional heavy weapons being developed in states around Israel.

I have, for a number of months, if not longer, raised concerns about Starmer, who always reminds me of Khrushchev’s view of Malenkov, i.e. that Malenkov was a “file-clerk type; such people should never be given power, and are dangerous” [see https://www.amazon.co.uk/Khrushchev-Remembers-Nikita-Sergeevich/dp/0316831409].
Look at Starmer. His first crisis as Prime Minister, and what does he do? He retreats to his “legal people” comfort zone. He does not even attempt to unite a country being pulled in different directions by centrifugal forces, as a real leader would.
Starmer threatens new repressive powers, “night courts”, no bail for accused persons (which is beyond his lawful power anyway), prison sentences (ditto). He supports, basically, one side, or rather is against one side, the British side, if you like.
Starmer’s attempt to create fear, eg among those on social media, has had some effect, not on the “bottle-throwers” but on entirely decent English people, many of at least middle-age, who have deleted tweets (often saying simply that they have been labelled “thugs” by Starmer).
Meanwhile, the brainless police have been shown on Twitter/X “bravely” kicking in the door of a lone woman who attended a protest. What else, if anything, did she do? If the police behave like a poundland KGB or Stasi, then public respect for them will (further) plummet.
Well, here we are, one month and one day into the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship.

I think that the time has come, inter alia, for me to share with my dear readers an event that happened at least a month ago. About 5 or 6 weeks ago.
Mid-evening after a warm day. I think a Saturday. Not sure. About 2030. Knock at door. Uniformed policeman there. Had never seen him previously. “Hello, what’s the problem?“; to which he answers “why would there be a problem?“, at which I have to politely explain that my wife and I do not have the police at our door every day…
It turns out that I am being questioned (and filmed on bodycam) for tweets made on Twitter/X. I am told right from the start that “there is no need to worry“, because the matter had “already been NFA’d“, meaning “No Further Action”.
I was too surprised by being buttonholed to ask why, in that case, a policeman had once again come to my door (not that exact policeman, but in the past decade, several real police and/or joke “PCSO” fake police).
The policeman showed me a kind of photostat or copy of what might have been a tweet, but he objected when I tried to take or (as my wife says I always do) snatch the paper to look at it properly (once a barrister, always a barrister…).
The heading seemed to be something like “Ian#IStandWithCorbyn“
Anyway…I told the police that I had actually not had a Twitter/X account, nor tweeted anything at all, for about six years, since 2018, when a pack of Jews (I diplomatically put it as “a Jewish organization“) had complained about me to —pre-Elon Musk— Twitter, as a result of which Twitter had shut down my account permanently (and that I had never bothered to reinstate the account).
After that, the policeman, absurdly, would not let me examine the tweet or tweets, on the basis that the material would be confidential if not mine (why, if the tweet was public anyway?). The police today need a Franz Kafka to chronicle their absurd rules and protocols.
Anyway, after that, and a joke or two (from me), the policeman thanked me and departed stage left (not pursued by a bear, sadly).
So the police can send someone over a claimed tweet allegedly by me, which tweet had already been marked as “NFA” but, when a wheel was stolen from my car about 18 months ago, they did absolutely nothing. Useless.
I was too surprised to ask why they thought that the “Ian” of the tweet (if he even exists) was thought to have been me. Do the police think that no-one else in the UK is called Ian? God knows.
No wonder crime is flourishing, when the police seem to be uninterested in, and indeed incapable of doing, their proper job, yet take seriously malicious complaints from (((the usual suspects))) about supposed comments on Twitter/X, Facebook etc.
Who would best chronicle the way Britain now is— Franz Kafka, or Lewis Carroll?

Plymouth could be a great city, but isn’t. Badly-run for decades, basically.
As to the protests generally, BBC News dragged out Brendan Cox, the sex-pest of years ago, whose MP wife was assassinated. Cox was at one time getting hundreds of thousands a year from charities for his salaried work. One of the “favoured” of the present System set-up and its msm. One of the Prominente favoured by the multikulti msm, if you like.

Quite. Just like would-be tyrant-woman Yvette Cooper, who even had the gall to say that British families should allow migrant-invaders to stay in their homes. Needless to say, she and her equally-expenses-cheating husband, Ed Balls (who together own several houses and flats) are not accommodating any migrant-invaders.
BBC website is still banging on about 'far right thuggery' in Plymouth, where there's about 4 people and a dog just standing about. Nothing about this at all. I agree with you, it's time someone does the right thing and speaks up.
Fear? Think how many Muslims there now are in the UK (England especially). Nearly 4 million. Most are quiescent most of the time but, if inflamed by their own leaders, and/or by pro-active policing, and if organized (even locally) they could easily take down both the police and the now-very-depleted Army. Think about it.
English people are generally not organized when it comes to political protesting. Usually easily-controlled by the authorities.
Stop saying "far right thugs" Say violent offenders on ALL sides Stop talking only about mosques Say you support ALL communities Stop dwelling on "misinformation" Say immigration concern is REAL Stop talking about making ppl safe Say you'll actually control borders Stop denying…
In a sense, the migration-invasion of the UK (and Europe generally) is the tsunami overshadowing the smaller events under it (such as the present urban upheavals in England).
The new and rubbish “Labour”-label Government talks a hard game, but behind that, the migration-invasion continues unchecked, unabated. Sooner or later, this society will break, whatever political pygmies of the Yvette Cooper and Starmer type may say (or do).
Reminds me of the last days of the German Reich, with Hitler and the generals of the OKW (Oberkommando der Wehrmacht—German High Command) moving wooden plaques, representing SS-Panzer and other forces, mostly by then non-existent, across huge maps, while, not so far away, the enormous Soviet armies advance relentlessly, ever closer to Berlin.

Rachel Reeves has no “plan”, just a tick-box idea of “balancing the books”. cf. David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne.
Look at what she herself has decided to do, along with her boss, fellow Labour Friends of Israel member Starmer.
Infrastructure investment slashed, which is the worst-possible choice (though some projects are useless, notably HS2). More money for the subsistence of unwanted migrant-invaders. Pensioners to lose a lifeline. No new hospitals. Yet pay rises of 22.3% (over 2 years) for junior hospital doctors most of whom are useless, and most if not all of whom will be on far higher levels of income within a few years of seniority.
That last reminded me of a major league baseball players’ strike when I lived in the USA over 30 years ago. The strike was bitter and crowned with success eventually. The demand was that all major league baseball players should get $100,000 a year minimum (I suppose you could at least double the value today). Not unreasonable, arguably, though it was several times the average pay of Americans as a whole. The joke was that only 1% of all major league baseball players at that time received pay of less than $100,000 anyway. Most were in the several hundreds of thousands a year, with a substantial minority getting over a million a year.

“Zelensky: We will discuss the issue of Ukraine’s borders with the respective countries.
PROMISED TO DEVELOP A “PEACE ESTABLISHMENT PLAN” BY THE END OF NOVEMBER
Kyiv-based political scientist Andrei ZOLOTARYOV believes that Zelensky is “preparing to sell the truce to the Ukrainians as a victory.”
Washington Post: Armed forces of Ukraine exhausted, a critical situation is emerging for the Ukrainian army on the front with elements of “serious chaos”.”
Surely, if the Kiev-regime forces are exhausted, this is the moment for a general advance of Russian armour and infantry across eastern Ukraine, not for a truce, from the Russian point of view?
The US allowed the use of nuclear weapons because of Ukraine
The United States may use nuclear weapons because of the desperate situation in Ukraine, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern said in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue works.
“The US allowed the use of nuclear weapons because of Ukraine The United States may use nuclear weapons because of the desperate situation in Ukraine, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern said in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue works. “The situation in Ukraine now is that the Russians have virtually defeated Ukraine, and so the United States has a choice between a humiliating defeat and perhaps dropping one of these low-yield nuclear weapons,” he said.“
If the USA uses nuclear weapons on Russian forces, it can kiss goodbye to the top 50 American cities, including Washington DC, New York, LA, Philadelphia, Houston, Denver, Chicago, San Francisco, San Diego, and Boston.
Don’t instigate nuclear war. It could put humanity back thousands of years.
After Trump’s courageous immediate response to the attempted assassination, his stock among the American voters must surely rise.
I just landed and missed an assignation attempt. Holy shit. What a bad ass reaction from Trump. The election is over. He's the next president. The Dems should give up. They can't beat him now. pic.twitter.com/omtbue191d
This must surely seal the Presidential race for Trump, even if the Democrats replace Biden with someone compos mentis.
Having said that, were Biden to be replaced by someone such as Michelle Obama, popular —God knows why— among the non-whites who are now the majority of the American population, it is possible that Trump might lose, I suppose, but that really might see an actual civil war develop.
Have we just seen and heard, in those popping shots at the Trump rally, the first shots of the second American Civil War, akin to the shot fired at Fort Sumter, Charleston, South Carolina in 1861, or even that fired by the cruiser Aurora in 1917?
Is anything Liz Truss may think even worth reporting? Her rise to prominence, then —briefly— power came as a result of peculiar and particular political circumstances; and, after all, she only became an MP in the first place on her back.
Were her crazy idea about pension age ever to be implemented, it would cause an electoral, and perhaps actual, rebellion that would make the rise of Reform UK look like the Teddy Bears’ Picnic.

As Matt Goodwin has predicted, the Starmer-Labour government will crash and burn very quickly. It has no real mandate anyway, despite its Commons majority. Only 33.7% of the popular vote. People wanted rid of the fake “Conservatives”, that’s all. Few really wanted Starmer-Labour. Don’t forget that Sunak’s “Conservatives” also had a large Commons majority.

Compare and contrast Donald Trump's strength and courage after an assassination attempt to Joe Biden's fumbling and bumbling performance as president. That's what millions of Americans will be doing right now.

The Labour hegemony in the younger age-groups (highest in the 25-34 age-group— 46%) will not last. The wider 18-44 group —where Labour support was, at GE 2024, over 40%— will soon defect or fall away when Labour fails to improve the housing crisis, or improve the poor deal renters get in the UK, among other issues.
Farage
I see that the little world of UK Twitter/X is going mad because Farage is going to visit Trump. According to those Twitter-twits, Farage is neglecting his duties as MP and, in particular, neglecting the constituents of Clacton by briefly going to the USA. They obviously have no idea that a great many MPs either do nothing at all for their (notional) constituents, or send pro-forma letters back to them, explaining why they can do little or nothing. There are exceptions, but those are exceptions to the general rule of uselessness.

Well, 7/10 this week, thus beating political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 5/10. I did not know the answers to questions 3, 7, and 10, though I was at least in the right area re. question 7.
That idea, that the online pseudo-political “grifters” (“Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, “Man Behaving Dadly”, Julia Grace Patterson etc) will have to nuance their begging appeals now that the hated “Tories” have switched places with the supposedly better but actually quite similar (in policy terms) Starmer-Labour, had occurred to me.
I doubt that the online fraudsters need to worry too much, though. Their target audience is almost begging to be cheated, and will accept as true almost any variation in the “facts” put forward. You only have to look at the lies of “Jack Monroe” over the years. Stunningly unbelievable. Like something from a book of fairy stories. Yet the “useful idiots” believe…and continue to send money to her.
NEW POST: The Tory Elite Class is in CLOUD CUCKOO LAND. They need to wake up and smell the coffeehttps://t.co/tnTPO0GwyI
There is a belief around that “mainstream” political parties must aim to be in the non-existent or notional “centre”.
Regular readers of the blog will know that I effectively never use the descriptors “right”, “left”, “centre” etc in that way.
What matters is policy, and what matters to the people is the overall effect of policy on their lives. The Conservative Party failed the people in terms of how their confused policy offering actually affected or changed, or failed to change, the lives and lifestyles of the people. Labour is about to follow suit, in my opinion.
Not that Churchill himself wanted to finish off the British Empire. He wanted, in an ideal world, to destroy National Socialist Germany and, at the same time, the Soviet Union.
Churchill’s strategic ineptitude (seen in numerous examples throughout his career) led not only to the destruction of the German Reich, followed by the division of mainland Europe into a Stalinist sector in the East, and a basically American, or notionally Anglo-American, sector in the West, but also to the destruction of all the European empires, and thus their generally civilizing influence over Asia, Africa (including North Africa) etc
The same basic division in Europe (though into 4 national sectors) was carried out in much of Germany and Austria for several years after WW2, with the capital cities (Berlin and Vienna) likewise divided.
Vienna was divided until 1955, Berlin until 1989, and France was, as a notional Western ally, given one sector despite having been defeated in 1940, partly occupied the same year, and fully-occupied in November 1942 (and having not participated in the defeat of the German Reich).
The end of WW2 led directly to the collapse of European rule across the world. The colonies of Britain, France, Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands etc were decolonized, some almost immediately, some much later. Thus began the environmental degradation and loss of wildlife across Asia, Africa, the Pacific etc, which situation continues even today, as do the wars, civil wars, corruptions and tyrannies of the formerly colonial territories.
Churchill, an educated and erudite man who was also completely wrong in his political judgment(s) was, so to speak, “the wrong man at the wrong time”, though the accepted System/msm narrative says the opposite, of course.
As Barnett points out in one or two of those books, after WW2 Britain would have been able to do one of three things well, possibly even two of those things: maintain its status as a great power; regenerate its economy; create a Welfare State. Britain tried to accomplish all three, but was unable to do so satisfactorily. Britain had been beggared by its war against the German Reich.
These three aims or tasks (or problems) are still with us, in some or another form, today.
Britain today is the “also ran” in respect of its military power, its society (Welfare State, NHS, State education etc), and economy.
As far as Barnett is concerned, I should say that he was right far more often than he was wrong.
Incidentally, Barnett was probably denied a knighthood, a life peerage, and other official honours (he did get a CBE) by reason of his having spoken, or strongly implied, the unsayable— that Britain should never have declared war on the German Reich or, having declared war in September 1939, should have concluded an armistice sometime after Dunkirk, in mid to late 1940, before too much hurt and damage had been done in western and central Europe.
Reform UK
"The blunt reality is that more 2019 Conservatives switched to Reform than the number who switched to Labour and the Liberal Democrats combined. Nigel Farage is the primary threat to the Conservative Party"https://t.co/OVSRT4eNro
"the Tory elite class have never understood where the real centre in British politics lies, or if they have known then they’ve considered it too grubby, too parochial, too insular, too working-class, too low-status for high-status elites like them"https://t.co/OVSRT4eNro
"Farage is very quickly building a serious & sustainable electorate —socially distinctive, geographically efficient, culturally coherent, conservative in outlook, and very hacked off with the Tory elite class"https://t.co/OVSRT4eNro
Reform UK’s vote suffers from being wide, indeed nationwide (though not so strong in Scotland), but shallow. 14.29% across the board could easily have meant zero seats anywhere, rather than the 5 Reform actually captured.
The LibDem vote, only 12.22% nationally, was nonetheless concentrated here and there. Result— 72 MPs.
In the East of England, Reform UK scored 17.5% of the vote; in the East Midlands, 18.9%.
Indeed, though Reform won no GE 2024 seats in the West Midlands or North-East England, its vote was still high— 18.1% in the former, and 19.9% in the latter (less than half a point behind the Conservative Party). Reform was also not very far behind the Conservative Party in the West Midlands.
Reform UK came second in 98 constituencies, of which 89 were won or held by Labour.
It is not impossible to surmise that, if the Conservative Party vote were to collapse further in those 98 seats, Reform UK might capture some, many, or even all of them.
That would be even more likely, arguende, if Starmer-Labour in government disappoints the mass of the people, as I believe it will.

“They’re carrying on like a cross between Pravda and Smash Hits.”
I am glad that I am not alone in having noticed the sickening sycophancy of the “occupied” UK msm towards Starmer-Labour (though would anyway be unconcerned were I the only one).
Today, on Sky News, I caught literally seconds of the end of a piece by some sports journalist woman. Her take was that, with “England” in the final game of some football contest, and a new Labour (New Labour?) government in power, it feels (she claimed) like the dawning of a new era. I believe that was the brainless and derivative way in which she put it.
Of course, Starmer-Labour will probably be in power until 2029, so the msm drones naturally want to curry favour, but I think that the said sycophancy goes beyond even that. I think that many in the msm seriously believe that Starmer-Labour is wonderful and will bring about some minor “golden age”.
I see no real connected thinking in the msm about what happens when the UK is importing literally a million invaders every single year, about what happens when a Labour government is harder on workers, the unemployed, the sick, the disabled than has been the past 14 years of “Conservative” government (etc).
What happens when the lights go out? What happens when lawlessness finally overwhelms a fairly civilized court and legal system which evolved over long periods but which is now already swamped?
Also, with a deadhead like Lammy as Foreign Secretary, what happens to Britain’s already-tattered international standing?
What interests me is what will be happening 2025-2029 under the surface of the Labour Party pseudo-landslide Commons majority.
“Labourites have exposed their arrogance by declaring an ‘end’ to the culture war. What they really mean is that they’re in the driving seat now. That they will accelerate woke, whether we like it or not.”
Ed Miliband lives in an eco-fantasy land. He really thinks that banning North Sea drilling will be good for the UK, creating jobs and boosting energy security. With just one week in power, Labour has already lost its grip on reality:https://t.co/A0Mf7aVnng
Who can forget Ed Miliband at Copenhagen in 2005, bleating outside the UN conference (so badly-organized that he was not allowed in at first) about the fake “3/5/7/whatever years to save the world” narrative? I also recall that little monkey, who was the President of the Maldives, jumping up and down and clapping once he realized that his country might receive millions in “climate aid” in case the Maldives sank below the waves (nearly 20 years later, though, it is still there).

Back in the mid-1980s, I sometimes enjoyed Spitting Image [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitting_Image]. The sort of real cutting satire that would simply not be allowed today, much of it. In any case, with the sort of events we now see (eg Biden’s funny but also sad descent into the fog), any similar show today would have to fight hard to compete with what is actually happening in front of our eyes.
True, Reagan was not the most-obviously intelligent world leader, but the satirical treatment of him was deliberately “over the top”; whatever his flaws, he was not in the grip of a dementia-related condition plainly visible whenever he spoke in public.
I have not seen the more recently remade Spitting Image but I doubt that it pokes fun at the kind of non-political targets the 1980s original did, e.g. black “rap” performers. I admit that I am guessing, though. The remake is not broadcast on mainstream TV.
Zelenskyy Calls on NATO Allies to Remove Restrictions on Strikes Into Russiahttps://t.co/DikGEKi0oX

The regime of that evil little bastard has only one main chance— to drag NATO into the war. That might mean a slide into a nuclear confrontation before very long.
If the Kiev regime starts to attack Russian cities far from the front line, the response might be that Ukrainian cities in the western part of Ukraine, west of the Dnieper, might be attacked and even destroyed.
So far, Russia has not launched all-out attack on Kiev, partly because of its role in Russian history, but if major Russian cities start to be bombarded, that may change.
I predicted, a couple of years ago, on the blog, that Russia would start to degrade the electrical production and distribution network across Ukraine. That is now being intensified, and is a far more intelligent way of waging war than the more brutal and harsh —and less effective— choice of attacking directly the homes and neighbourhoods of the Ukrainian civilians.
If the Kiev regime starts to badly damage Russian cities away from the front line —especially Moscow, Petersburg and surrounding territories— the Russian response could be devastating enough to bring NATO into the war on some pretext such as Poland suffering damage. Were that to happen, all of us would be but a step away from a Russia-NATO war, which is being pushed by secret circles within the West. Such a war, which would quite likely go nuclear within weeks, would change Europe and the world forever.

Must admit I certainly worry for my kids. The future does not look that great given Labours decisions over the last week.
I was just looking at Twitter/X, which is alive today with Twitter-twits attacking Reform UK and, particularly, belittling Reform for, as it were, pretending to be a serious political party when it “only” has 5 MPs.
As recently as June 2024, the LibDems only had 11 MPs, and had only 8 from 2015 until 2017.
As for the SNP, from its foundation in the early 1930s and until 1970, about 37 years (!), the SNP had no MPs at all; in 1970, the SNP managed to have elected 1 MP. The MP-cadre of the SNP then varied from 2 to (1974 to 1979) 11 MPs in the years 1974 to 2015, but mostly stuck at 2 or 3 MPs until 1997, when the SNP bloc increased its numbers, this time to 6 MPs. When the FPTP tipping-point was reached in 2015, the SNP mushroomed from 6 MPs to 56 (out of 59 Scottish MPs) overnight: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_National_Party#House_of_Commons.
Apart from those comparisons, the Twitter-twits might like to consider what this blog has been saying for the past week, as have some others (though not enough) even in the msm: Labour did not win by some kind of popular “landslide”, but only in terms of seats conferred by a totally unfit-for-purpose electoral system.
As noted on the blog in past days, at GE 2024 the Conservative Party only got (just over) 1.5x the number/percentage of votes of Reform UK, and even Labour only got (below) 2.5x the Reform UK vote-share.
As put on the blog the other day, out of every 20 eligible voters, only 12 even voted.
In very rough terms, out of that eligible 20 voters, 8 voters abstained, 4 voters voted Lab, 3 voters voted Con, 2 voters voted Reform, 2 voters voted LibDem, and 1 voter voted Green.
Not exactly, and “other parties were available”, but 90.29% of UK voters voted for one of those 5 parties. In England specifically, about 97% of voters voted Lab, Con, Reform, LibDem or Green.
The Twitter-Twits tweeting about Reform UK are mostly Labour supporters who belittle Reform because only 2 out of every 12 voters who voted voted for it, yet only 4 out of 12 (4 out of 20 if you count the abstainers) voted Labour.
I happened to notice one particular Twitter/X account, one “@RobBaron10”, who today (as of 1430) has already managed to put out about 29 Twitter/X “replies”, almost all angrily insulting, and all or almost all completely brainless. I have to say that I am loath to give much credence to someone whose Twitter/X profile says “Retired lecturer in philosophy trying to live a low-impact lifestyle. Despises the far-right and social injustice. Responds in the tone responded to.” Especially when said “retired lecturer in philosophy” thinks that “toe the line” is spelled “tow the line“…
More seriously, if Starmer-Labour MPs and supporters think that the absurd result of GE 2024 gives Starmer the right to impose a “woke”, and also Israel-lobby, tyranny on the people of the UK, he and they are very much mistaken.
Remember those figures— only 4 out of 12 who voted (<34%) voted Labour; only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters (~20%) voted Labour.

Hey #politicslive just thought I’d let you know that in the GE @LibDems did brilliantly – loads of new MPs. Yet today you’ve got the chairman of Reform on. I’d like to say I’m surprised but 🤷♀️
Typical Twitter-twit. Yes, the LibDems, as longstanding “dustbin-for-votes” party, got 72 MPs at the General Election. Their vote-share was 12.2% (3,519,199 votes).
By reason of the incredibly undemocratic and illogical UK voting system, Reform UK only got 5 MPs, despite having received a vote-share of 14.3% (4,117,221 votes), well ahead of the LibDems.
Needless to say, tendentious creatures such as tweeter “@Jo_WhiteheadUK” are actually secretly or not so secretly pleased that the electoral system is biased against even mildly-national parties such as Reform UK.
The absurdity of the electoral system is surely now obvious to all. The Conservative Party got a vote-share of 23.7% (6,827,311 votes), just over 1.6 times the vote received by Reform UK, yet now has 121 MPs!
Labour is even more unfairly favoured: <33.7% of the popular vote (9,704,655 individual votes); only just over 2.3 times the Reform UK vote, yet it now has 411 MPs.
Sinn Fein got only 210,891 votes (0.73%) yet has 7 MPs, because its vote is concentrated in a small number of Northern Irish seats. Absurd.
This is not really “democracy”, however defined. A caricature of democracy.
Two things. Firstly, Labour, at the highest level, is signed up to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, just as are the “Conservatives”— they want to import non-Europeans into all European countries. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.
Secondly, Labour, like their supposed “opponents” in the Westminster monkeyhouse, talk about “criminal gangs” as if they are the problem. No, they are but a symptom. By all means eliminate those criminals (the System politicians will not even do that, in reality), but the migration-invasion will not be stopped, or even much reduced, by those methods.
It is clear that Labour intends to “legalize” both those illegals already here and most of those planning to invade our shores.
In Britain’s fantasy politics, centred around House of Commons seats, Labour “won” GE 2024 by a landslide, the Conservative Party lost hugely, the LibDems did terribly well and had a kind of resurgence, and Reform UK performed underwhelmingly and got the few (5) MPs that they deserved (or not, according to many Twitter-twits).
In Britain’s real political landscape, away from the Westminster Bubble and the TV studios, things look rather different.
Take 20 UK potential voters, 20 people eligible to vote.
Out of that 20, at least 8 did not bother to vote at all. Those 8 people are completely disenchanted with the whole political system.
Of the remaining 12 voters, i.e. those that actually voted, 2 (in statistical terms, 1.72) voted for Reform UK, 3 (2.84) voted Conservative, and 4 (4.04) voted Labour. Another 1 or 2 (1.47) voted LibDem and maybe 1 (0.76) voted Green.
That is how, out of every 12 voters that voted, and out of every 20 eligible, people voted.
It can be seen that Labour does not really have the massive mandate to which it pretends. For every 4 people presently voting for Labour, another 3 are voting Conservative, 2 are voting Reform UK, 1 or 2 are voting LibDem, and 1 voting Green.
It is the view of the System msm that the above does not matter. Labour has 411 MPs and a huge majority in the Commons, and that’s that.
Not quite. Public opinion can be ignored by those holding power, but only up to a point. I have seen at close quarters some entrenched political systems change, indeed collapse, when public opinion and mood reached a certain tipping-point.
What happens in 2027, 2028, or 2029, after Labour fails dismally, as I think it will (and must, if it is going to allow a million non-Europeans into the UK every year)? The people will not turn back to the Conservative Party, whichever faction rules that rump of a party. The LibDems are just a tactical-vote and dustbin-vote party. Reform UK may or may not rise further.
Ultimately, I think it entirely possible that a social-national alternative not presently in existence may arise. That may or may not be a “party” in the Parliamentary sense.
One thing is for sure— the will and welfare of the people cannot be trifled with indefinitely. Salus populi suprema lex…

Pro-migration-invasion “@zoejardiniere” (Zoe Gardner) with her usual pro-mass migration nonsense.
The 100,000 figure refers to invaders (often “illegals”) who are in the UK without having been granted leave to remain.
Still, her tweet featuring the Daily Telegraph story does confirm what I have repeatedly said on the blog would be the Labour policy: “stop the boats” by allowing almost all “asylum” applicants to stay. Those already on UK territory to be “processed” (rubberstamped) and allowed to stay (and so to work, and/or —more likely— claim benefits, apply for social housing, get a State Pension eventually etc). Those in France or elsewhere to be “processed” (rubberstamped) there, with 95% allowed to come to the UK.
This is the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan in action. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan. Of course, it will mean social and economic disaster not far down the line. Political upheaval too.
There is also the point that the “small boats” invasion is but 5% of the total of all migration to the UK. We are talking about a million, give or take, every year. Even if you use the “net migration” figure, meaning excluding those leaving every year (most of them Brits desperately emigrating to Australasia etc), we are still talking about well over half a million a year, maybe three quarters of a million, in bald numbers.
Zoe Gardner talks about “rebuilding lives”, but what is really happening is that lives, British lives, are being destroyed via mass immigration: impossibility of house purchase for most, impossibility even of renting properties without having to share with strangers or wasting most of a person’s pay on rent; crowded railways and roads; crowded State schools; ever-declining health services; a society in which real British people have to share space and life with persons of totally different race and culture.
Of course, those promoting all of that, whether “@ZoeJardiniere” or Yvette Cooper, will not themselves be subject to such cheapening of their lives. They, most of such pro-migration people, live far from those alien madding crowds.

Why do people set up these ridiculous “news” Twitter/X accounts, copied from real news organizations? Maybe as an alternative to trainspotting or other hobbies; God knows.
For the true picture about my trial and sentence, see below:
NEW POST. This is the ONE issue that will derail the new Labour government. How the public mood on one big issue is starting to movehttps://t.co/1Z4tNem2r8
“Starmer’s spokesman, too, has already indicated the Labour government will allow more than 100,000 illegal migrants who are already in the country to apply for asylum, thereby, in my view, creating a huge incentive for many more to come.
Labour’s new Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, who just watched Nigel Farage’s Reform party finish second in her own northern seat, has also refused to say the Labour government is committed to Rishi Sunak’s pledge to “stop the boats”.
And the Labour government is already pressing ahead with its proposed ‘solution’ to the illegal migration crisis by establishing a ‘new UK Border Security Command’ to ‘tackle the gangs’ —a move which for reasons I’ve already outlined (see here and here) is unlikely to stop the gangs or the small boat invasion at all. In fact, I’ve yet to meet a single expert who thinks Labour’s plan on illegal migration will work.“
[Matt Goodwin]
"The man tipped to be in charge of stopping the small boats has said he is "proud to be woke", compared Suella Braverman to Enoch Powell, praised Black Lives Matter & openly opposed a ‘No Deal’ Brexit. Is this the man to restore trust?"https://t.co/1Z4tNem2r8
“Furthermore, the very man tipped to be appointed by Labour to tackle the small boats, Neil Basu, has previously said he is “proud to be woke”, compared Suella Braverman to Enoch Powell, has suggested diversity and inclusion are the most important things in policing, spoken positively about the revolutionary group Black Lives Matter (BLM), and openly opposed a ‘No Deal’ Brexit.“
[Matt Goodwin]
Neil Basu was one of the most senior policeman, and was always shouting about the “danger” from the so-called “far right” (despite migration invasion happening all around him); he seems, all of the time, to have supported the interests of the non-white population as against those of the real British people. That was certainly my perception.

Reform UK is a symptom of how angry rather a lot of English people are about the state of the country. Over 4 million votes, over 14% of those voters who voted (i.e. Reform UK was voted for by 1 in 7 voters).
Reform UK got 14.3% of votes, but only 5 MPs.
LibDems? Fewer votes by far than Reform, yet 72 MPs. Ridiculous.
The Conservative Party got 23.7%, little more than one and a half times the number of votes taken by Reform, yet 121 MPs.
Where is the justice, or even logic, in that?
As for the Labour Party, its 33.7% of votes cast represents less than two and a half times the Reform vote, yet it ends up with 411 MPs!
Again, no justice and no logic.
Apparently, Peter Barnes (or Peter C. Barnes) is a UK political campaigns person, who works or has worked for the Conservative Party, and who appears on the “no-one watches” Talk TV and the “almost no-one watches” GB News television outlets.
Back in May I made a prediction. A lot changed and to everyone’s surprise @reformparty_uk actually secured the seats
Seems that Barnes blames Reform UK for Labour’s faux “landslide” (procured by a mere 33.7% of votes cast, i.e. about 20% of all potential votes), and via an electoral system patently not fit for purpose.
In reality, the blame for the Starmer-Labour victory should be placed, first and foremost, with a succession of supposedly “Conservative” governments over the past 14 years, headed by no less than 5 Conservative Party prime ministers who all turned out to be complete deadheads.
Those Conservative Party governments presided over the importation of 3-4 MILLION immigrants, mostly non-European, and over the trashing of public services including the libraries, courts, police, district nursing, roads, elder care, social housing; also riverine pollution… you name it.
At present, mass immigration into the UK is somewhere around a million a year. Yes, a few hundred thousand also leave, but most of the leavers are Brit or other European people emigrating to Australasia and elsewhere.
Barnes seems to think that, had Reform UK not existed, all or most of its voters would have voted Con, thus preventing a Labour government, or one with a majority.
First of all, while most 2024 election Reform UK voters would not have voted Labour in those or any circumstances, that does not mean that they would have voted Con. Probably not. More likely, abstention.
Secondly, parties exist for a reason. There now seems little reason for most voters to vote Con. That seems to be lost on Westminster Bubble types such as Barnes (of whom I had not heard until today). Reform UK is the outcome of profound discontent in the depths of the population.
If Labour (as I firmly expect) fails to give the British people what they require, then Reform UK will not only grow in influence, but will also be the least of the problems of the System parties.
Britain needs a real social-national movement.
Remarkable how he got such a big majority on so few votes. Also he has the lowest popularity rating of any newly elected PM

As I predicted. Labour continues the fiction that the problem is “smuggling gangs” etc, when the real problem is the migration invasion itself (both “legal” and “illegal”), and that would be about the same whether or not various types of criminal were making profits from it all.
I also predicted that Labour in government would open “processing centres” in France, approve 95% of applicants (who will then travel on to the UK “legally”, via ferry or air); the TV and newspaper coverage of invaders being ferried to the South Coast ports (via RNLI and Border Force) or beaches (via rubber boats etc) will simply all but stop, but the invasion itself will continue, just invisibly.
The Conservative party watching on, slack jawed, as it realises you are in fact allowed to use the machinery of government to do things you want and don't have to care if your opponents scream about it.

Tweeter “@IGMansfield” obviously loves the new “elected” dictatorship of Labour, as it prepares to build over the once “green and pleasant land” so that the invading migrants have a hutch to call their own. No consultation, no appeal, and he loves it.
We often talk about the “enemies of the people”. They now emerge in plain sight. Those who want to trash what is left of this country, whether for profit or for political tendentiousness.
Look at those applauding that tweet (eg below). Not all, or even mostly, any kind of “socialist”:
There is still a small window of opportunity for a party such as Reform UK, or even a genuinely social-national party, to make headway in terms of Commons seats etc. All roads lead to Rome. However, we are getting to the point where ordinary political activity, as per the Reform phenomenon, is not likely to lead to real success, or to triumph.
We are facing an exploding non-European population in the UK, and an upcoming repression on free speech worse than anything so far seen.
Meanwhile, the hordes of “useful idiots” applaud fake “Labour” and love to see government being tyrannical and careless of civil rights (a phenomenon also noted during the 2020-2022 “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic),
Starmer-Labour has little in common with “the party formerly known as Labour”; it is a finance-capitalist project, which poses (and is presented by the msm) as wildly popular because of its Commons “landslide”, when in reality (as examined on the blog over the past few days), it only got 33.7% of the popular vote. Indeed, 40% of the eligible electorate did not vote, so the real support for Starmer-Labour in the country is only about 20%.
This is a WEF government, a ZOG/NWO government, a Labour Friends of Israel government, a Bilderberg government. It has no real validity.
Starmer-Labour is really just another globalist and finance-capitalist “project” akin to Blair’s “New Labour”, as seen in the many Blair-Brown faces now in government. The myriad new MPs are basically lobby-fodder.

Peter Hitchens is a confirmed political spectator, and has certain fixed views, one of which seems to be a huge over-valuation of the importance of voting every 4-5 years. He thinks that MPs are terrified of their voters voting them out. No, because they have incentives to vote according to other motivations, such as lobby money, outside “work” as “consultants”, party discipline (careerism), possibility of a paid “peerage” down the line etc.
Another Hitchens characteristic is that he is very fixated on the “two main parties” set-up which has dominated British politics (with LibDem and SNP distractions) since the Second World War and to a large extent since the First World War.
Hitchens seems to think that it was wrong for the public to turn to Reform UK, and that it would have been better to have had a Labour government with a much smaller majority.
I disagree. That would change nothing, and the UK needs to change (though not in the Starmer-Labour way). Hitchens seems to support a different kind of Conservative Party, if possible, but you cannot put new wine into old bottles.
There isn't one. If there was an opportunity to reforge conservatism in this country, which is arguable, it passed in 2010, when British patriotic conservatives endorsed David Cameron's Blairite takeover of the Tory Party.( as I have said here 1,000 times before).@rikstoreyhttps://t.co/TUXqKHA67o
Regular readers will know that I have little time for Farage, let alone Tice etc. They are not social-national. However, their Reform UK project has moved the “Overton Window”, and has started to break up the rigged political system that has been in place all of my life.
Hitchens is right in saying, as he does, that Reform UK is just Farage, but you could have said that about, say, on a higher and more significant political level, Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP.
As Rudolf Hess said, famously, at Nuremberg in 1934, “Die Partei ist Hitler, aber Hitler ist Deutschland wie Deutschland Hitler ist!” [see https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6uajey at 1:43:00].
For me, Reform UK is but one means to an end, not the final destination.
Not Keir Starmer, .@mrsonicadvance . *?Please* grasp the breathtakingly simple point of voting *against*. It hopes to *prevent* an undesired outcome. I long ago ceased to imagine that voting in Britain could have any positive outcome for conservatives. https://t.co/HYitBymN2v
Does Hitchens really imagine that Starmer-Labour is or will be worse than (or even very different from) the “Conservative” governments of the past 14 years?
“In his 1991 book Geschichtsdenken im 20. Jahrhundert (Historical Thinking in the 20th Century), Nolte asserted that the 20th century had produced three “extraordinary states”, namely Germany, the Soviet Union, and Israel. He claimed that all three were “abnormal once”, but whereas the Soviet Union and Germany were now “normal” states, Israel was still “abnormal” and, in Nolte’s view, in danger of becoming a fascist state that might commit genocide against the Palestinians.”
Good grief. What a list! Only one or two are even European. Suella Braverman of Indian origins; James Cleverly of mixed African and English origins; Kemi Badenoch, Nigerian; Priti Patel, East African Indian origin; Tom Tugendhat, quarter-Jewish; Robert Jenrick, possibly fully-English (uncertain); Victoria Atkins.
Speaking personally, if I were in any case a Conservative, I should find Jenrick unacceptable by reason of his seeming (?) corruption, his Jewish personal links (not just his wife, his social circle, which seems to consist largely of Jewish business sharks), and his poor judgment in office.
Tugendhat? Apart from his part-Jewish origins, he is very very keen on support for Israel and the Kiev regime. Also, I am always suspicious when someone, especially from a privileged background (his father was a High Court judge), has a large hole in his or her CV.
Tugendhat seems to have graduated in or about 1994, then spent a year (?) getting a Master’s degree in Islamic studies. After that, he spent a brief time as a journalist on an English-language newspaper in Beirut.
We next hear of Tugendhat about 6-7 years later, in 2003, when he is gazetted as a Territorial Army officer (after a month or two, joining the Intelligence Corps); as of 2013, Lt.-Colonel in the Int. Corps. He was also working, ostensibly for the Foreign Office and in a civilian capacity or role, in Iraq in 2005.
As MP and minister, Tugendhat has been associated with both “security” matters and allied matters of so-called “extremism”. He seems to be hostile to free speech, especially about Israel and the Jewish/Zionist lobby.
Well, one can draw one’s own conclusions.
Not much to say about Victoria Atkins. A barrister by training, and married to a multi-millionaire who is a director of numerous large companies, including British Sugar.
I cannot see any of the above appealing to the British voters.
The only Conservative Party MP for whom I would have any time at all would be David Davis [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Davis_(British_politician)], who at least has proven that he has principle, respect for civil rights and, also, courage. He, however, is now 75, and may not want to lead that rabble anyway.
