Vysotsky musings
I happened to find an old Vysotsky CD in the car. Playing it as I drove along, I found myself musing on Vysotsky. I was actually unaware, until I looked more closely at his Wikipedia profile, that he was half-Jew: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Vysotsky#Early_life. Surprising, perhaps, in view of his occasional lampooning of Jewish types and/or accents in some of his songs.
When I got slightly involved with the Soviet and Russian milieu in the late 1970s and then 1980s (though only in and/or from the UK; I never went to the Soviet Union, and first visited Moscow only in 1993), it struck me rather unpleasantly what a decadent society had grown up in that part of the world. In particular, the excessive drinking of some Soviet citizens (mainly men) and also the heavy smoking (especially though not exclusively men). Not everywhere, certainly not everyone, but enough to rot the society from within. That, and corrosive cynicism.
Vysotsky was to some extent the personification of all that. That is not to take away from his great talent as a singer-songwriter, but that sort of unhealthy lifestyle was, in my view, a large part of the reason why the Soviet Union collapsed so completely so unexpectedly, just as its semi-toleration of underhand dealings, criminality, and (largely Jewish) underground business activity in the 1970s and 1980s led, in the post-collapse 1990s, to the glitzy tasteless Russia of the (mostly Jewish) “oligarchs” under Yeltsin and, to a lesser extent Putin, and to the gangsterism rampant in the 1990s (though far less so now).
Andropov was probably a highly unpleasant man, and extremely repressive, as well as possibly half-Jew (it is not certain), but I think that he saw the train coming down the tunnel at Soviet society, and decided to stop it. His unexpected death really sounded the death-knell of Sovietism.
I read a Daily Telegraph piece about “middle class” homeless people (i.e. people who had good jobs, decent houses or flats, and then didn’t). The article waxed eloquent about the pressure on social housing etc, but the words “immigration” and “migration” did not appear; not once.
As Hitler said of many during the Weimar Republic period, “they want not only their daily bread but also their daily illusion“…
BREAKING.
A poll by Findoutnow has shown Reform (24%) ahead of Labour (23%) for the first time ever.
Another interesting thing about this poll is that while @Nigel_Farage & Reform are ahead of Labour they’re also more popular than the Tories among the under-65s … https://t.co/0qKp502tEw
While FPTP voting would still be cheating Reform of nearly half of its potential seats under full proportional voting (156), those figures would give Reform about 95 seats, according to Electoral Calculus (Con 219, Lab 207, LibDem 67, Greens 6, SNP 22 etc). Thus Reform would be the “kingmaker”, though even then the Cons would have to agree with another party to get over the 326 line, or even the ~315 practical line.
In fact, as Goodwin implies, the only factor that keeps the Cons even as high as 26% in the polls is the pensioner vote. That may reduce by 2029; we shall see. A result of Reform 26%, Con 24%, Lab 23% would result in a Commons with Lab 195, Con 174, Reform 149. Still unfair and illogical, but on that showing, Labour would be unable to form a government even with LibDem, SNP and Green support, whereas a Con-Reform coalition could, just about.
If Reform, Con, and Lab all got 25% (others as given), then the result would be Lab 245, Con 188, Reform 93, LibDem 69, SNP 22, Greens 6.
I myself tend to think that Reform’s star is waxing, but the others waning, so a result somewhere in the area(s) above is not unlikely, with 3 or even 4 parties having almost equal success.
“Tim Montgomerie’s leap from the Tory ship to Reform UK? Now this is a statement. Thirty-three years of loyalty to the Conservatives, yet even he’s had enough of the dithering, U-turns, and wet centrism. Reform UK is becoming the island for those sick of the Westminster circus, a home for patriots tired of compromise and careerists. The Tories should be terrified—if stalwarts like Montgomerie are walking away, what does that say about the state of the party? Reform UK isn’t just nibbling at the edges anymore; it’s carving out a proper movement for common-sense politics and sovereignty. Watch this space, lads. The political realignment is only just beginning.”
Naturally, for anyone social-national, Reform UK is only a step forward, rather than any giant leap. Many of its expressed policies are wrong, and many of its candidates non-European. It is also pro-Israel etc.
Reform, however, may help to kill off the System parties over the next few years.
As for Tim Montgomerie, I have of course never had any time for him. He supported the fake “compassionate Conservatism” of David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne (both part-Jew) and the cruelties inflicted on so many by their policies, and by “welfare” (social security) “reformers” Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, the Jew “Lord” Freud etc.
Still, Montgomerie’s defection is an interesting commentary on the possible upcoming demise of the Conservative Party.
Reform UK is polling at around 20%. It has been there before, just about, but fell back to score only 14.29% at GE 2024. In my opinion, though, the fact that Reform UK was able to have 5 MPs elected (in contradistinction to other small parties of the past half-century and more) is more important than appears superficially.
To look at Reform UK’s underwhelming (in themselves and in terms of numbers) 5 MPs and say (as many Labour Party partisans, pro-EU drones etc, have done, expressly) “ha ha! You lost!“, totally misses the point.
For any small political party, under the UK electoral system, to get even one MP elected is huge; to get 5 elected at once is, well, massive.
That especially applies once one realizes that it was only the FPTP voting system, which since the 1960s has gradually ceased to reflect the real levels of political opinion in the country, which prevented Reform UK having about 93 MPs (14.29% of 650).
Under a (full) proportional representation system, Reform UK would have been awarded 93 MPs, the LibDems 79, the Conservative Party 154, and Labour 219, on the voting numbers at GE 2024.
In reality, were the voting system proportional, many more voters might have voted for Reform UK anyway, because not put off doing so by the perception that not voting Lab, Con, or LibDem is “a wasted vote”.
As can be seen from the graphic above, the present system of voting in England (particularly) is skewed against the smaller parties. Not Reform UK alone; the Green Party, under a fully-proportionate system, would have been awarded, at GE 2024, 42 MPs (6.39% of 650) instead of the 3 who were actually elected. Even George Galloway’s Workers’ Party would have 5 seats.
Some proportional-voting systems have a “threshold”, 1%, 5% etc, below which a party gets no seats.
We now have a Labour government which was voted for by a third (33.7%) of the actually-voting electorate, and by a mere 20% of the eligible electorate. It has only marginal legitimacy.
Having said all that, we are where we are. At present, the main two System parties still stand opposed to reform of the electoral process.
The SNP was founded in 1934, but only had its first MP elected in 1945, in a by-election, and he lost his seat only 3 months later. The next SNP MP won her seat in another by-election, in 1967, but lost it in 1970, though another SNP candidate won in another seat. At that time, there were 71 MPs holding Scottish constituencies.
The SNP did well in 1974, getting 11 MPs at one of the two general elections, but fell back to 2 in 1979. Throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, the SNP increased its support but even in 2010 had only 6 MPs out of the 59 then available in Scotland.
Then, in 2015, the SNP had its electoral miracle, based on a “Conservative” Party government at Westminster supported by relatively few Scottish voters, and on a Labour Party which had been supreme in Scotland since 1945, increasingly so since 1964 and then in the early 21stC, but which was perceived as being useless (particularly so in the Blair/Brown years (when Labour was in power at Westminster) and thereafter, when Scottish Labour was headed by the egregiously poor Jim Murphy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Murphy]. Murphy had been an unsuccessful university student for 11 years, and never did graduate, but became a Labour MP at the relatively early age of 29.
In 2015, Scottish Labour lost 41 of its 41 Westminster seats, while the SNP held or gained 56 (out of 59).
How does that relate to Reform UK in 2024 and perhaps 2029?
We have seen how the SNP took over a decade to get 1 MP, and 40 years to get a cadre of MPs, and how the SNP only surged to power 81 years after its foundation.
Reform UK, dating from only 2021, is however the same, in effect, as its previous persona as Brexit Party, founded in 2018, and a lineal descendant from UKIP (though that still exists as a small rump), founded in 1993.
Reform UK is now aiming to do in England, as well as in the UK as a whole, what the SNP did in Scotland in 2015, i.e. catch the wave of popular support. For Farage, Tice etc, there has to be that FPTP tipping point, the point at which the illogical, unfair etc FPTP system, instead of impeding Reform, starts to work in its favour.
Reform’s slightly underwhelming result at GE 2024 was purely the result of its support (and votes) being spread so thinly. Reform had considerably more actual votes than the LibDems, but few concentrations of votes. Where the concentration was dense enough, Reform got MPs.
The msm commentators, and the Labour and Conservative Party partisans, have not fully taken on board why Labour won so many MPs, and so won the election.
Labour won because the Conservative Party lost. Trite, yes, but the point is that —as can be seen from the percentage voting for Labour, only 33.7%— rather few people actually voted Labour, and most of those who did, did so in a wholly negative way, i.e. because in this or that particular constituency, the fight was perceived as being only between Lab and Con, or Lab and SNP in Scotland, and people desperately wanted rid of 14 years of “Conservative” misgovernment.
What, then happens when Labour, Starmer-Labour, Labour Friends of Israel Labour, is hated and despised as much as the Conservative Party was 5 months ago? Well, actually, that has already happened, but of course Labour is going nowhere, insulated from dissent, protest, and even riot by its very large majority (presently 156: see https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/government-majority).
It has taken Starmer only 5 months to put Labour down where the Cons were, in popular estimation, after many years, arguably 14 years.
If the voting patterns of several years continue, i.e. people voting against rather than for candidates and parties, then I think it entirely possible that, in voting against Labour, Reform might be the receptacle for those “anti” votes, more than the Conservative Party. In fact, I can see at least the possibility that both Lab and Con will slump, Lab to maybe 200 seats, and Con to somewhere below 100. If that were to happen, there would be about 350 seats going to others, in England maybe 250. Reform could be the main beneficiary of that.
It may be speculative to suggest that the next general election could see Reform UK as the party with the most Commons seats, but it is now not impossible.
How many seats could Reform get? I do not know. Anywhere from 50 to 200, if they continue to gather support. Reform came second in 98 seats at GE 2024; on the other hand, UKIP came second in 120 seats in 2015.
The only gamechanger I could see for the Cons would be if “Boris” Johnson were to come back into direct politics, take one of the few “safe” Con seats left, depose the Nigerian woman, Kemi Badenoch, then appeal to the public, “cosplaying” his favourite role as an am-dram Winston Churchill.
As regular readers know, I myself despise Johnson, and hold him in utter contempt. However, many voters do not. Stupid, maybe, but we must look at the realities. In fact, Johnson is not terribly popular with the voters; just more popular than Kemi Badenoch ever will be.
I have often wondered why Johnson was not granted a life peerage. He could have had one, had he wished. There is only one answer— he wanted to keep his options open. Were he to return as Con leader, he could not do worse than Sunak (or Badenoch) electorally, in my view. A “Boris” general election might steal much of Reform’s thunder. The Cons might even become the largest party again. Hateful to me (as is Starmer-Labour) but it might just happen.
At GE 2024, parties and individuals other than LibLabCon got a record 30.4%. That means that, already, if taken with the 40.2% of eligible voters who did not vote, 70.6% of people did not vote for the so-called “three main parties”.
In the early 1980s (when I took A Levels, studying for a few months alone in order to be able to get onto a law degree course, having dropped out of school a decade before, at age 16, in 1973), about 8% of candidates were awarded a Grade A. By 2009, that had grown to nearly 27%, despite the increase in the number of candidates.
In 2009, the concerns about grade inflation resulted in a new category being established, the A*. Look at the statistics. From 2009, about 8% were getting A* grades, but the ordinary A grades were, from 2009, running at around 18% or more. B and C grades were inflating even more.
As with the currency, grade inflation simply means that, in the end, the piece of paper becomes almost worthless.
Israeli war crimes— Genocide in Gaza
“My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli Professor of Holocaust Studies. For nearly 30 years I have researched and taught the Holocaust, genocide and state violence.
And I want to tell whoever is willing to listen that what’s happening now in Gaza is a genocide.
““My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli Professor of Holocaust Studies. For nearly 30 years I have researched and taught the Holocaust, genocide and state violence. And I want to tell whoever is willing to listen that what’s happening now in Gaza is a genocide. A year ago when October 7th happened, like all Israelis I was in shock. It was a war crime and a crime against humanity. 1200 people – more than 800 of them civilians – were killed in one day. Children and the elderly were among those taken hostage. Communities were destroyed. It was outrageous, traumatizing, personal. Like most Israelis, I know people who were killed, who lost loved ones or whose loved ones were taken hostage. But immediately afterwards came Israel’s response and within weeks thousands of civilians were killed in Gaza. It took me some time to digest what was unfolding before my eyes. It was agonizing to confront that reality. I was reluctant to call it a genocide. But if you read Raphael Lemkin – the Jewish-Polish legal scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ and was the major driving force behind the 1948 United Nations Genocide Convention – what is happening in Gaza now is exactly what he had in mind when he spoke about genocide. It does not need to look like the Holocaust to be a genocide. Each genocide looks different and not all involve killing of millions or the entire group. The United Nations Genocide Convention explicitly asserts that genocide is the act of deliberately destroying a group in whole or in part. Those are the words. But there does need to be a clear intent. And indeed, there are clear indications of intent to destroy Gaza: Israel’s leaders – including the prime minister and the minister of defence – and many high-ranking military officers, media personalities, rabbis, as well as ordinary soldiers were very open about what they wanted to achieve. There were countless documented incitements to turn the whole of Gaza into rubble and claims that there are no innocent people living there. A radical atmosphere of dehumanization of the Palestinians prevails in Israeli society to an extent that I can’t remember in my 58 years of living here. Now that vision has been enacted. Tens of thousands of innocent children, women and men have been killed. Over a hundred thousand were wounded. There is a near total destruction of infrastructure, intentional starvation and blocking of humanitarian aid. There are mass graves and reliable testimony of summary executions. Children that were shot by snipers. All the universities and almost all hospitals are gone. Almost all the population is displaced. There have been numerous bombings of civilians in so-called ‘safe zones’. Gaza does not exist anymore. It is completely destroyed. Thus, the outcome fits perfectly with the stated intentions of Israel’s leadership. Lemkin – that scholar who coined the term ‘genocide’ – described two phases of a genocide. The first is the destruction of the annihilated group and the second is what he called ‘imposition of the national pattern’ of the perpetrator. We are now witnessing the second phase as Israel prepares ethnically cleansed areas for Israeli settlements. And therefore, I have come to the conclusion that this is exactly what a genocide looks like. We don’t teach about genocides in order to realize it retrospectively. We teach about it in order to prevent it and to stop it. But like in every other case of genocide in history right now we have mass denial. Both here in Israel and around the world. But reality cannot be denied. So yes, it is a genocide. And once you come to this conclusion you cannot remain silent.” – Statement to Led By Donkeys, December 2024 – Photo: Parliament Square, London, 8.40am, 4th December 2024.“
Powerful.
That statement certainly puts the UK and US-based Jew-Zionist “human rights” lawyers in their place, the ones constantly tweeting about how what has been happening in Gaza is supposedly not a genocide because… [how many angels can dance on the head of a pin?].

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer BLASTS Kemi Badenoch for being the ‘cheerleader’ of mass migration

What really matters politically, though, is not the Westminster Bubble blame-game but what is actually happening on the streets. A million or more invaders every year (last year 1.2M) (yes, one or two hundred thousand leave, as do about a hundred thousand disenchanted Brits), and a steep slide in terms of public services, a decent society, crime, incomes, housing provision, and much else.
If things go on as they now are, there will be either a quietly-British form of social-national revolution somewhere or somewhen down the line, or (and/or) a kind of civil war mixed with a social war and a race war. A confused mixed picture, though, not a sharply-delineated and two-sided one.
In contemporary Britain, the truth is “inflammatory“…
I argued, in my long-ago talk at the London Forum in 2017, that people charged with such essentially political offences should never plead guilty.
Pleading guilty is understandable in ordinary criminal cases, in that it reduces the sentence where the evidence is overwhelming, but I consider it the duty of social-national and other nationalist defendants to plead not guilty. To plead guilty is to validate the prosecution. Also, in a jury case especially, you never know your luck.
I followed my own advice in my 2023 free speech trial.
Yes, I was still convicted, after a process that started, from my point of view, in February or March 2023, and ended with my sentencing hearing on 14 March 2024, but my “9-month community order” (probation, by any other word) ends in about a week, technically, and in reality finished in mid-September 2024; my “community order” sentence of “15 rehabilitation days” turned out to be half a dozen or so meetings ranging in duration from about 30 minutes to a couple of hours each.
Would I have been handed down a more lenient sentence had I pleaded guilty? I doubt it.
People at the Spectator Awards used to laugh at @Nigel_Farage. Last night, I sat in the room as he warned them Reform will cause an earthquake at the next election. There was total silence because everybody knows it could happen.
It does not even much matter that Reform UK would probably be poor at governing. The main thing is to smash the “two main parties” scam, and—to intrude a metaphor from the world of chess— to open up the board.
Happened to catch 10 mins of a TV jaunt around the Caribbean, presented by Clive Myrie. Needless to say, the black TV presenter focussed, when in Jamaica and Barbados, mainly on slavery, “reparations” for slavery, and on “racism” etc.
There was an amusing moment when Myrie met relatives in what I took to be their not unpleasant large villa, set amid a profusion of flowering plants. One of them mentioned how Myrie’s father had, after having moved to the UK, encountered “racism, not like you today“, but Myrie demurred. He obviously has that chip on the shoulder, despite being paid hundreds of thousands a year by the BBC and (as, co-incidentally, I just saw in the Guardian) large extra amounts moonlighting as well: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/dec/04/clive-myrie-apologises-for-failing-to-declare-at-least-145000-in-outside-earnings-bbc.
My experience with having had 4 bikes stolen in London, is the Police are 100% ….not interested. I recovered one because I spotted it tied up whilst driving through Tooting. Other time we had clrar CCTV image of face, but not interested.
This of course goes far beyond “mere” theft of bicycles.
A couple of years ago, my Australian niece, in her early twenties and —at the time— living for a couple of years in London, decided to start cycling from her London flat (West Kensington) to her office (West End). A brave and perhaps unwise decision. All went well until, one fine summer day, a car hit her not very far from her home, at a busy intersection. A place where there are shops, cafes and, therefore, cctv. She was knocked off her bike, and left in the road. The driver sped off. Thankfully, she had no serious injuries; bruises and cuts, mainly.
My niece did report the incident (it may be that passers-by did too, at the time). The police did nothing, absolutely nothing, despite the fact that this was a hit and run vehicle crime which could well have been more serious, even a fatality. They did not even collect cctv, despite the time of the “accident” (crime) being known to within a few minutes. Useless.
Another crime: I know that I have blogged about this previously, but my regular readers will please grant me this indulgence.
A couple of years ago, in early 2023, a wheel was stolen from my car. Local people were able to provide me with some good leads as to the likely thief or his connections. I passed that information on to the police online and via telephone (they did not turn up at all in person, despite likely DNA evidence or fingerprints left on a jack). Nothing happened. No action, no investigation. Useless people.
Imagine my surprise, then (and as I later discovered), that the uniformed constable (from Hampshire Constabulary) who was in everyday charge of the relevant “neighbourhood crime team”, turned out to be the very same policeman who, together with a female colleague, had turned up, at my now very humble home, and on my birthday, in 2021, some 18 months previously, having been asked to do so by Gloucestershire Police at the behest of one Stephen Silverman, the self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” at the fanatical pro-Israel Jewish pressure-group called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”.
Silverman’s malicious, and completely false, complaint to the police against me (on the ground of “racial harassment”) is detailed here:
Well, nothing came of that attempted perversion of the course of justice by Silverman, but he has never been charged (((why?))). Au contraire— the tiny but well-funded “CAA” cabal simply persuaded (via direct political pressure and interference) the Wessex Crown —or Clown— Prosecution Service (Wessex CPS) to prosecute me on a completely different legal basis, and in respect of (small parts of) 5 blog posts, out of the, at the time, well over 1,500 blog posts published from late 2016 to early 2023.
My free speech trial in late 2023, my sentencing hearing in March 2024, and the aftermath of the trial and sentencing are detailed here:
The same policeman already noted above in today’s blog and in those other days’ blogs, turned up at every hearing of my “case”— first appearance in June or July 2023, a later “case management” appearance when the trial was deferred, the one-day trial, the sentencing hearing (and another hearing prior to sentence when the “Clown” Prosecutor made a doomed attempt to give my “case” a “hate crime” uplift). Four or maybe even five hearings; every time, that policeman was there, sitting in the waiting area and at the back of the court (he did give evidence, briefly, at the trial, and was equally-briefly cross-examined by me).
So that policeman spent 5 days on attending court, related to my quite pointless trial, as well as (with other “guardians of law and order”) a number of days cobbling together the huge amount of material required by the Clown Prosecution Service. Also, parts of other days in 2021, wasted on Silverman’s completely false and malicious allegation that he was “racially harassed” by me (I did not know his address, or his telephone number or email, and had never once spoken to him, or even seen him, still less confronted him).
Days which that policeman and his colleagues might have used more productively, dealing with real crime and/or investigating Silverman’s 2021 attempt to pervert the course of justice.
Incidentally, Silverman, despite now living in Gloucestershire (prior to that, in Essex), made the fairly long journey to Southampton Magistrates’ Court both for my trial and for the sentencing hearing, though he slunk out on the latter occasion once he realized that the sentence (a 9-month “community order” and £734 costs etc) was not going to be as severe as he and his horrible little “CAA” cabal had hoped.
I should add that, on one of the preliminary days in court, in summer 2023, a different “CAA” creature turned up to snoop, a kind of bearded and very long-haired near-dwarf, like something out of Lord of the Rings.
Well, there it is. The police politicized, suborned (along with the Clown Prosecution Service) and apparently incapable of doing their proper job, while behaving as a so-far relatively velvet-glove and poundshop Stasi.

Anyway, what Goodwin is omitting to add is that the importation of non-Europeans into the UK and the rest of Europe is a planned and evil strategy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.
Starmer has no more intention of stopping the migration-invasion than did Sunak, Johnson, or the others.
The Home Office has been concealing that kind of data for not only years but for decades. I blogged, several years ago, about the experience I had when a superannuated “first six” [months] Bar pupil (trainee) in early 1992, and when my “pupilmaster” (supervisor, mentor, lager-buyer…) had a trial involving Arab Gypsies originally from North Africa, of whom the Home Office were aware, and who (a clan of about 5,000 in and by London) lived (and no doubt still live) from thieving, begging, and by accessing the social security system. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/08/03/first-steal-a-chicken/.
That other person, talking to Goodwin, talks about Starmer’s “loveless majority“. It may have a Commons majority, by reason of the ludicrously unfair and illogical voting system in the UK, but it has and had no popular vote majority, and its plurality of votes, in percentage terms, is one of the lowest ever— 33.7%, only just a third of those who voted; 4 out of every 12. Over 40% of the eligible electorate did not vote. Only 4 in every 20 people eligible to vote voted for Labour and Starmer.
Labour are no longer the party of the working class people from the industrial towns of the UK. They are now the party of the woke dinner party set.
Both main System parties are hanging on only because of a voting system that is basically binary. Tweedledum/Tweedledee. Despite that, they are both going down. Reform UK may be a poor alternative, but is a straw at which many will clutch between now and 2029.
“Over the four years of data, released by the MoJ in a parliamentary question, foreign offenders were responsible for around 40,000 crimes”
“In Israel, war fatigue is growing, the death toll is rising, and the scale of the fighting is expanding. A growing number of Israeli army reservists are avoiding service, further straining an already overstretched army amid an ever-expanding war. An Israeli army spokesman said the number of conscripts had dropped by about 15% since the start of the operation in the Gaza Strip in October 2023. Israel is now embroiled in the longest conflict in its history. In the first months of the war, some 350,000 Israelis were conscripted, a huge number for a country with a population of less than 10 million. The army plans to extend mandatory military service and increase the maximum age limit for reservists. /Washington Post/.“
Israel is doomed. Once the Israeli state falls, the power and influence of the worldwide Jewish lobby will diminish greatly, enabling Europe, in particular, to break free.
Talking point
Scamdemic. Panicdemic.
Talk about “the Big Lie”! Stunning in its massive-scale mendacity. Label “flu” as “Covid” (more or less) then use the fear created (with relentless State publicity frightening the life out of people —in some cases, literally) to institute police-state measures and laws which can then be used again in future, as required.
Very true. Look at those peabrained idiots passing judgment on Robert Kennedy junior, and on his health plans, when they themselves are not only peabrained but also plainly unfit and unhealthy couch potatoes with nothing to do but watch TV and make ignorant comments based on whatever System propaganda they have absorbed from TV “news” comment etc.

Kiev-regime Ukraine is not a civilized state. Indeed, it is not really a state at all. Were it not propped up by EU, US, UK aid, it would collapse. It will eventually collapse. Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose this war.
What makes politicians and parties “credible” and “serious”?
In fact, at time of writing, that petition has over 600,000 signatures, and is obviously going to end up in the millions. I doubt that its existence, even if 6,000,000 sign, will change anything, though. Keir Starmer and his Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment will hang on, in order to retain power, to retain status, and to quite deliberately further ruin this country.
Interesting how people perceive political parties and their MPs, though.
For example, Rachel Reeves was touted as a real heavyweight, a serious economist etc. Now, it turns out that she was not working as an economist prior to becoming an MP, but was, as the detractors say, more or less “Rachel from Accounts“, a kind of office bod, and a retail banking mortgage adviser who sold retail products to members of the public and engaged in customer relations.
The CVs of many MPs, not only Labour ones, are faked to the point of utter dishonesty; that of Iain Dunce Duncan Smith, for one. Even the bastard’s surname is a fake (it is not “Duncan Smith” but simply “Smith”).
As to the parties themselves, the public are fooled into thinking that the Labour Party and Conservative parties are somehow “serious” or “credible” because they have been around for a long time and have, respectively, 402 and 121 MPs. Even the LibDems, who have 72.
Reform UK is not regarded, even now, as credible or serious, partly because it is fairly new, because it is a vehicle owned (literally) by Nigel Farage, and because it has only 5 MPs
The reality is that the make-up of the present Parliament is by reason of a voting system that is more than simply flawed; it simply bears no relationship to the real and expressed opinions and preferences of the electorate.
The present “elected” Labour Party quasi-dictatorship of Jewish-lobby/Israel lobby puppet Starmer was voted for by 4 out of 20 eligible voters (4 out of 12 actual voters), and has 402 MPs. 3 out of 20 (3 out of 12) voted Conservative Party, which has 121 MPs. 2 out of 20 (2 out of 12) voted LibDem; 72 MPs.
Then we have Reform UK, also voted for by 2 out of 20 (2 out of 12) voters. Indeed, Reform UK gathered in half a million more votes than did the LibDems. Only 5 MPs! Unfair, and actually illogical. In fact, the proportion of votes going to the LibDems was 12.22%, to Reform UK 14.29%.
More significantly, Labour’s total vote was, roughly, 9.7M, the Conservatives’ was 6.8M, Reform UK got 4M, and the LibDems 3.5M. Reform UK was not so far behind the Conservative Party, and within sight of the Labour Party, which got nearly 2.5x the Reform UK vote.
I do not think it impossible that a head of steam (of discontent) will build from now until 2029, and that Labour will then suffer a crushing electoral defeat. The “Conservatives”, presumably under their new Nigerian woman leader, are unlikely, in my opinion, to get far beyond where they now are. The LibDems are just a “dustbin” party for the votes of those not wishing to vote Lab or Con. The remaining straw at which the voters might clutch is Reform. I could see Reform winning 50-100 seats next time, maybe more, in those seats where 3 or 4 parties will be in serious contention, each of the contending parties getting 20%-30%.
In those circumstances, yes, Reform might emerge as either the third or the second party in the Commons. First place? Unlikely, but never say never.
Caveat: Reform is morphing slowly into a new System party, as witness Farage’s recent statements, both pro-Israel and not particularly anti-Islam; also, with numerous non-white candidates. Only real social nationalism can save this country, but there is no party of that kind, unfortunately.
Incidentally, that “Call a General Election Now” petition has, in the time it took me to write the above lines, gone well above 700,000, and is running at about 2,000 signatures per minute. Admittedly, 700,000 people is only about 1% of the whole UK population, and about 2% of the GE 2024 turnout. On the other hand, if the petition numbers reach 7M, or 14M, are Labour partisans still going to be saying that it is meaningless? In terms of public relations, that does not wash.
“Seriousness” and “credibility” of political parties rests on a number of connected factors: ideology, professed policies, leader, other prominent members and/or MPs, history (if any), funding and publicity, msm comment, Press comment, online comment, number of people voting for the party.
“Call a General Election Now” (II)
I notice that the petition now has 1.2M signatures, and still increasing by about 2,000 per minute as I write. If, as expected, the signatories are ignored by the Government (save for a perfunctory brief and no-vote debate in the Commons), then Labour’s slide will certainly continue.

Yes. Unless something big happens fairly soon (and I do not mean the rise of “Reform UK”), you can write off 90% of the UK population. A small-ish core can create a germinal ethnostate; the rest may have to fall by the wayside.
I never thought I would say it, but if the Kiev regime does that, Putin might (wait until Trump is installed, but if this kind of action continues after that date, then) decide to destroy Kiev entirely, using one or more nuclear missiles. If that terrible event were to happen, the Ukrainian front would simply die on the vine in a few weeks without resupply or reinforcement.
Zelensky and his (((cabal))) are attempting to foment a NATO-Russia war which, were it to break out, might change Europe, and the world, forever.

When that sort of thing happens, it must be yet another sign that our present culture and civilization is reaching the end of the line.
If a genuinely social-national party existed in the UK, it might well sweep all before it. Sadly, none exists.
Look at GE 2024: 8 out of 20 eligible voters did not vote. Many, perhaps most, of those might vote social-national if given the chance. Even if “only” half were to do so, the vote would equal that of the Labour Party, which was voted for by a mere 4 out of every 20 eligible voters.

In other words, if equipped with a nuclear warhead, it could reach London, New York, Washington DC, Paris etc in minutes, and would destroy those targets.
The UK, France, USA must think again about the reckless support for the Kiev regime which becomes daily more likely to lead to a Russia-NATO nuclear war.

That would be big news. At one time, Labour-label was the only game in town in Welsh elections. Labour is still the main force there, though nowhere near as strong as it once was.
The pseudo-national party in Wales, Plaid Cymru, is a joke, akin to the SNP in Scotland. Multikulti, pro-immigration, pro every globalist piece of nonsense, from “black lives matter” to the “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic and “Climate Change” narrative etc.
I think, like Goodwin, that Reform UK might start to do really well in Wales. A real social-national party would do even better, if such a party were to exist.

“journalist from The Telegraph, Allison Pearson, is under investigation by British police for an alleged “hate crime” due to a year-old social media post.

I do not recall the “conservative” or other “free speech” supposed activists speaking up for me.

No. Not one. Not even, as far as I recall, Nick Griffin or other nationalist-type activists online. Not one.
Of course, the reason is clear. “The usual suspects”, aka (((“them”))) and their evil, malign influence over politics, the legal system, and the mainstream media, and even the “alt-Right” social media types (who fear losing their Twitter/X accounts and so much of their influence and/or income).
Allison Pearson saga: Starmer’s Britain is no longer a free country – it’s an Orwellian dystopia https://t.co/X8FCtdBKpA
Ah. Yet I do not recall the Daily Telegraph speaking up for me; not when I was wrongfully and actually unlawfully disbarred in 2016, nor when the Jewish lobby (sub nom “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, actually a tiny though well-funded group) procured, via political interference, a prosecution of me using the notorious “bad law” Communications Act 2002, s.127. As to the former, see the articles posted above. As to my 2016 disbarment, see below:
Exactly. I support Allison Pearson’s free speech, but she and her type, msm scribblers etc, mouthpieces of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby, do not support mine. I therefore claim the moral high ground.
I would not have said this even 10 years ago, but the fact is that most of the police in the UK are now idiots, easily bamboozled by the Jewish lobby in particular. Also brainwashed by “diversity” and “inclusion” bs, imbibed during mandated “courses”.
In Allison Pearson’s case, she is (as one would expect from a UK msm scribbler) pro-Jewish lobby, so her “crime” or “non-crime hate offence” seems to have been based on the “diversity” nonsense.
Can one do better than recall the words of Voltaire over two centuries ago, and surely unnecessary for me to quote to my erudite readership…
The Jewish/Israel lobby is behind most of the attack on free speech in the UK, the same lobby that Allison Pearson seems to support. Poetic justice? Either you have freedom of expression or you do not.
Oh, so Julia Hartley-Brewer is now all for free speech, as is her employer, the “no-one watches” Talk TV owned by the ancient cuckold Rupert Murdoch.
I have never seen anything from Julia Loudmouth supporting my free speech rights over the past decade.
As for Talk TV, when I was convicted in 2023, and sentenced in March 2024, for having published the truth, Talk TV’s Twitter/X account simply regurgitated the bs fed to its “journalists” by the Jewish lobby and suborned Clown Prosecution Service.
Talk TV managed to get basic facts wrong, too; they even said, on their Twitter account and website, that I had been “jailed“!
“Another scandal emerging on the impact of uncontrolled mass immigration on our way of life… From my questioning of the Ministry of Justice – slowly, we are getting real answers. Between April 2018 and March 2022, there were 38,868 reoffences from adult foreign nationals. Within that, there were 11,890 reoffenders. Why are these criminals not immediately deported? If our weak establishment had the guts to do what is needed to be done and deport these miscreants, then almost 40,000 crimes would have been prevented. Pathetic and spineless politicians have failed this country. Foreign criminals should be deported. No excuses.“

So the “fat lady” sang (again) (at Wessex CPS HQ).
What an incredible waste of public resources. Will Allison Pearson or Julia Hartley-Loudmouth have anything to say about the latest assault on freedom of expression? I doubt it.
The status and rank of King’s Counsel is not what it once was (rather like that of “King” itself, arguende…), 100 or even 50 years ago. They are almost 2-a-penny now.
As I blogged previously, in relation to both the USA election and Labour’s present situation in the UK.
The difference lies in the fact that the people of the UK had 14 years of inept “Conservative” misgovernment 2010-2024, and the voters wanted the Cons out, at almost any price.
Having said that, and as previously noted several times on the blog, out of every 20 eligible voters in the UK at GE 2024, and in rough figures, about 8 were so disenchanted with the whole political process, with society, and with the political choices available, that they voted with their feet (did not vote at all).
For me, the most significant figures would be the 8 out of 20 who did not vote, and the 2 that voted Reform UK.
Obviously, Labour, Starmer-Labour, has little real popular mandate, particularly in view of the fact that Labour’s “4 out of 20” or “4 out of 12” would have included those who, faced with a Lab-Con fight in many constituencies, voted Lab to do down the Cons; the same, in reverse, may also be true, though to a lesser extent; those who voted Con to prevent Lab from winning. Negative voting.
There is at present, or as yet, no sign of a real social-national party emerging in the UK.
I think that Matt Goodwin may be right, i.e. that Reform UK will emerge as the real opposition to Labour in the public mind.
Reform UK now has 5 MPs, though all are rather underwhelming. Reform should of course (were the electoral system not both illogical and unfair) have had about 93 MPs, not the mere 5 awarded to them under FPTP.
It is ridiculous that a party, Reform UK, can get 14.29% of the popular vote and end up with 5 MPs, and that another party, the LibDems, can be voted for by only 12.22%, yet end up with 72 MPs! That does offend the still quite strong sense of fairness and fair play in this country.
Come to that, Labour itself captured only 33.7% of the popular vote, not greatly more than double the vote of Reform UK, yet now has 411 MPs.
A pure proportional-voting system would have given Labour 219 MPs, the Conservative Party 154, Reform UK 93, LibDems 79, and Green Party 42.
In other words, under pure proportional voting, on GE 2024 vote figures, the UK would still be under a Labour Party government, but it would be a minority one.
In practice, 320 MPs give a UK government a Commons majority. Under the proportional-voting scenario, and in order to get over the line, Labour would have been required to compact with either the Conservative Party, or with Reform UK, or with both the LibDems and Greens. I suppose that that last choice would have been the most likely— Labour with LibDem and Green support.
Having said that, were there a fairer and more proportional voting system in the UK, voters would be able to cast their votes knowing that, unless they were to vote Monster Raving Loony Party or the like, their votes would almost certainly result in at least one MP of their preference getting elected. On GE 2024 figures, even George Galloway’s party, Workers’ Party, would have had 4 or 5 MPs in the Commons (0.73% of the popular vote, 210,194 actual votes).
There is little doubt in my mind that, were the UK voting system fairer, most UK voters would not be voting for the System or “legacy” parties. Not only would Reform UK surge forward, but a real social national party might be able to capture both the imagination and the votes of the British people. That, of course, is why System politicians want to retain the present voting set-up.

That is about Simon Myerson, Leeds-based barrister and one of the “CAA” and “UKLFI” Jew-Zionist crowd, who was sacked as a Recorder (p/t judge) several months ago as a consequence of his extremely unpleasant and persistent social media trolling.
According to Myerson, the terrible slaughter visited upon the people of Gaza is, “legally”, not “genocide”, presumably because not all Gazans have been killed or wounded (“only” 150,000+, i.e. about a tenth of the population), and because the Israelis at least claim not to intend eliminating all Gazans or other Palestinian Arabs from Israel/Palestine.
Well, could not a similar claim, mutatis mutandis, be made by Germany about the Europe-resident Jews of the early 1940s?
Not my area of law (when I had “areas of law”). In any case, my own view of the Gaza slaughter is not based on some “dancing on a pin” legal sophistry. I say, just look at what the Israelis have been doing, and what they continue to do. Whether it is called “genocide” or not is irrelevant, really.
I have noticed that some of the non-Jews (who are pro-Jew-Zionist or, maybe better said, pro-Israel), and some of those who are part-Jew (what the Reich termed Mischlingen) but Zionist, are actually more fanatical than many of those who are fully-Jewish. Strange. That phenomenon has been covered on the blog, on this very popular page: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/.

There’s no question (mark) about it…
Simon Myerson is one of the weasels connected with the Israel-lobby organizations “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] and “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”]. He has been plotting behind the scenes for years. The “CAA” and “UKLFI” have been conspiring to have me arrested, charged, prosecuted, disbarred, removed from social media etc for at least a decade. So far not arrested, but certainly disbarred in 2016 (albeit wrongfully and unlawfully), expelled from Twitter in 2018, and charged/prosecuted/convicted/sentenced (see below).
As for Myerson, he was, fairly briefly, a Recorder (p/t judge) before being sacked (earlier in 2024) by reason of his vituperative tweets and other activities.
In the case of Wilson v. Newbon (deceased), Mendelsohn, and Cantor, which has been featured on the blog previously, Myerson’s evidence was, to be “diplomatic” about it, “not given any weight” by the learned trial judge. The same was true of the other Jews who gave “evidence” in that trial: Adam Cailler (newspaper scribbler), Joanne Bell (occupation, if any, unknown to me, but prolific on Twitter as “@jobellerina”); David Hirsh or Hirsch (minor academic specializing in “antisemitism”…); Nathan Comiskey (occupation, if any, unknown to me, but an active Jew-Zionist Twitter/X troll). There were a couple of other minor witnesses, their sworn testimony also discounted by the trial judge.
And Myerson did not have the good grace to apologise even when a judge in the High Court explained to him what he’d done. Myerson is a very strange man. pic.twitter.com/e7C2y8IhUN

CASE UPDATE: in relation to my costs, one defendant now complains he was badly advised by his solicitor. The judge’s response is “That is not a factor I can properly determine or take into account.”
Since then, the surviving defendants (Newbon killed himself) have been ordered to pay the costs of Wilson but (as far as I know) have not fully complied. As for Lewis, he should have been struck off the solicitors’ roll years ago.
Lewis’ clients must bitterly regret taking the cases to trial.

It is clear that there is an occult (in either sense) aspect to the mad wish of Starmer and Macron (both in the pocket of the Israel lobby) to have war with Russia. It cannot be in the interest of Western Europe (any more than of Central and Eastern Europe) to become a smoking and irradiated ruin.
Macron and Starmer are marching to the beat of another drum, that of the secretive NWO/ZOG cabals.
…and “nationalist” political parties which are not, not in the slightest, “nationalist”, let alone social-national (look at the SNP, Plaid Cymru, UKIP, Reform UK etc).
Reform UK has glimmerings of “nationality” but is pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, and not even against having non-white candidates or MPs. This is farcical.
