Though the obvious thing is to talk about “co-incidence”, or perhaps the attempts —if any— by those bombing and shelling to avoid collateral damage to religious buildings, it may be that there is a supernatural element to such manifestations.
Look at the Second World War. Cologne Cathedral was left almost, not entirely, untouched while the whole central part of the city around it was flattened by bombs and, later, tank warfare.

As to Matt Goodwin, at first I thought him just a minor academic who had woken up to the madness of permitting mass immigration etc and so had, shall we say, “modified” his views.
Later, more recently, I thought that Goodwin was either trying to lay the basis for a new political movement, with himself as the director —and/but for genuine reasons— or perhaps was trying to make money out of it; his Substack blog is monetized and he now has 24,000 paying (?) subscribers.
Now I really wonder whether Goodwin is under some sort of “control”. His views as expressed have undergone a considerable metamorphosis over the past few years. Of course, people do often, and genuinely, change their views, either “just because” or because they see the impossible-to-ignore in front of them.
Goodwin’s pro-Israelism, and apparent pro-Jewish lobby views, give me cause for concern.
Goodwin is now seen often on TV.
The Substack subscription seems to be (I am unsure) about a pound or so per week. Modest, arguably, but he now has 24,000 subscribers. If they are all paying that, a very good income indeed for him (maybe £100,000+ per month. Can that be right?). Even if only a quarter or a tenth are paying £5 each month, not at all bad…
Conclusion: undecided. He may be a System puppet, creating more “controlled opposition” (and witness his support for the rather pathetic Reform UK, for Farage etc), or he may be doing what he is doing for genuine reasons, or for fame and/or money. Or a mixture of all (a “Father Gapon” situation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgy_Gapon). I just do not know.

“While Labour is favourite to snatch the Northamptonshire seat from the Tories, Sunak’s party faces a battle even to take second place, if local opinion is anything to go by.”
[The Guardian]
Less an ordinary by-election, more a possible template for GE 2024. As I have blogged previously, there is a mood somewhere between anger and apathy, a mood which has become palpable in recent years, recent months.
The electorate now hates and despises the Conservative Party, whose governments now seem totally incompetent and ineffective. However, fake Labour is not much liked or respected either. “Least worst”, if you like.
As the Guardian report about Wellingborough indicates, that electoral mood leads people either to vote Labour as least-worst option, or to protest via Reform UK.
Sadly, no real social-national party is available.
The electorate’s present main emotion is wanting to stamp on the Government, on the misnamed Conservative Party, and on its MPs.
“A BBC editor was hired as an expert witness to help at least 15 Somalian criminals fight deportation – including a vile offender who sexually attacked a deaf teenage girl.
Now an investigation by this newspaper can reveal Ms Harper has givenexpert witness evidence in a string of other controversial deportation appeals by Somali offenders – including for another three sex attackers, three drug dealers and a career criminal who spent a decade in British jails.
In one of the most shocking cases, Ms Harper warned that a Somali man who committed a horrific sexual assault on a profoundly deaf 17-year-old girl would be at ‘severely heightened risk’ if he was sent back to Somalia because he had committed a sex crime.
A judge disagreed and threw out his appeal against deportation. Astonishingly, this newspaper has discovered that, 16 months later, the 29-year-old attacker, who the MoS is banned from naming by a court order, has still not been kicked out of Britain and is living with relatives in a council flat.”

Get rid of the invaders. Get rid of any who connive at the migration-invasion of this country.
Talking point: a medical episode
I do not usually blog about any medical conditions that may impact me, but in this case something wider, about the NHS, is illustrated.
When I lived for a year in Kazakhstan (1996-1997), I suddenly became almost deaf at one point. Ear wax. The wife of a Russian colonel with whom I was friendly took me to a local hospital not far from where I lived; I think that it was about a mile up the same long boulevard, Prospekt Lenina.
The treatment was basic but effective. A giant “watering can” was filled with water. I was enjoined to kneel down with my head sideways over a large receptacle. A metal cone about 2 feet deep was then positioned over one of my ears. One nurse held the cone as the other poured the water quickly but steadily into the cone.
The feeling —not pain exactly, but pressure— was almost unbearable for a second. It reminded me of a couple of experiences during scuba dive training. Then it was over, and a plug of ear wax the size of a little finger was floating in the water. Blessed relief. Hearing was restored.
I think —cannot now recall— that either the treatment was free or involved a small fee. I wanted to give the nurses themselves some money, but Ludmilla, the colonel’s wife, told me that that would not be necessary. She was always saving me from “wasting” money (and/or from the odd blonde), as when we were at the “Zilyony Bazaar” (“Green Market”), the Central Market in Almaty, and she would not hear of me having my fortune told by an ancient Kazakh woman sitting on the ground, and who used small animal bones to do her divinations. Ludmilla was a strong character, a contrast to her very easy-going husband.
The next time I had a similar problem, about 2015, the local GP surgery made me an appointment to see a nurse. I did attend, but in fact felt OK by the time I attended, and the nurse said that she could not see any wax anyway. So nothing had to be done.
Well, here we are in 2024. I was informed by the same GP surgery that they “no longer offer” any ear wax removal. A private clinic was recommended. It operates out of a small and quiet NHS hospital in a coastal village about 5 miles from my home. I made the appointment. £15 non-refundable deposit and £65 for the treatment. I could have had it done earlier, but am in fact going next week.
So there it is. Something that used to be free on the NHS now has to be paid for, or no treatment. I am not exactly affluent these days, and even a sum as small as £80 is not nothing (as the Russians say), but one can well imagine that there are many who would struggle to find the fee demanded.
The NHS is less and less useful. Here we are, with GPs earning, in most cases, £100,000-£200,000 a year, monies coming out of all our taxes (even if, like me, you are not employed, you still pay out via VAT etc), and they no longer offer what was a minor but still very useful service. A sign of the way things are going.
The NHS lost its way many years ago. It now seems, often, to be run mainly for the benefit of those employed in it.
It is not just a question of supplying the NHS with more money, or higher staff salaries, bonuses etc. It is a question of making sure that the people are offered services, and that the outcomes are good. Also, that the people needing medical (and dental) help, and their families, are not messed around and ripped-off (eg by having to pay exorbitant parking fees).
At least I myself shall not have to pay for parking next week; having been to that small hospital once before, I know that parking is free, just as in the Good Old Days (or today in the USA, France and I think almost everywhere else).

The very concept of “free speech” is heavily under threat already in the UK (mainly from Jew-Zionists and the Israel lobby, and from unthinking police, CPS, and other “official” drones), but now we see that people are being criminalized simply for having it assumed that they are thinking something!
Sturgeon and her SNP crew deserve to be kicked into the political gutter.
How cheaply people are bought, though! The Scottish electorate was offered and given a few cheap trinkets for its votes: no hospital car park charges, no prescription charges etc. That, and the the promise of a wonderful affluent Independence (which will never happen).
Nothing wrong with free parking and free prescriptions, as such, but look at the wider cost to the Scottish people under Sturgeon’s poundland dictatorship.

If repeated at the election, Conservatives would lose all but 41 seats. MPs facing the axe include Liz Truss, Suella Braverman, Jacob Rees-Mogg and… Rishi Sunak
That tweeter suggests that Con Party might have 41 seats after the GE. My own attempt to predict it via Electoral Calculus (on the same figures but including EC’s Scottish seats prediction and my own “tactical voting” estimates) leaves the Cons with only 36 seats. Almost existential for them, especially as hardly any people under 50 (about 10%, according to YouGov) will be voting for the Conservative Party. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.
The British electoral system moves slowly over the years, but it really looks as though the Conservative Party is on the way out. It happened to the once-mighty Liberal Party after the First World War; and look at the SNP, in the other direction: the SNP took about 40 years after its foundation (early 1930s) to get a single MP (1970) and then another 45 years (2015) to get more than a handful of Scottish seats.
Incidentally, the YouGov figures also suggest a possible/likely LibDem bloc of 30 seats, double what they now command. That despite an opinion poll level of only 8%, re-emphasizing the importance of concentrations of votes. Seems that Clausewitz was right even off the literal field of battle.
As to Reform UK, the prediction indicates either no seats or 1 seat, despite the 12% polling. However, the night is young. Matt Goodwin does not rule out 15%, most of which would come out of the 2019 Con Party vote. Above that level, seat gains become possible, certainly if Reform UK managed to get 20% at the GE. If the Conservative vote continues to slide, 15% is quite likely, 20% not impossible, even if only as a despairing protest vote from “Middle England”.
Reform UK is not social-national, merely conservative pseudo-nationalist, of course. Also pro-Israel, and pro the Jewish lobby. Still, I am hoping that Reform UK does well, because that will help to destroy the Conservative Party (one of the two main System parties) and so destabilize the System as a whole. Again, a good showing at the GE by Reform UK will help to shift the “Overton Window” a little towards my way of thinking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overton_window.

“Conservative voters are becoming more, not less, concerned about immigration. Between 2011 & 2020, they were 20-30 pts more likely to cite immigration as a top issue than Labour voters. Since 2020, that gap has grown to 50 pts. And those who have left the Tories for apathy are especially worried about it”. https://mattgoodwin.org/p/this-one-map-tells-you-a-lot-about
Many Labour voters are also “concerned” (horrified) by the migration-invasion of Britain, but are also “concerned”, perhaps more, about cost-of-living, housing, the slide in the standards of the NHS, education etc (though immigration impacts on all of those issues). Much depends on how questions are put, and whether people understand how different issues are in fact connected.
Every Conservative manifesto since just after Windrush has promised reduced immigration. The only changes introduced have been hate crime and DEI legislation to force us to keep quiet and tolerate their repeated betrayal.
Doesn't that just reflect the fact that the only people who still plan to vote Tory are the relatively small number of people who are very anti immigration of any kind? Also, how can you be very worried and apathetic? Doesn't seem to square
Look at that last tweeter. She is so typical of the pseudo-liberal shallow thinkers who so often think of themselves as educated and intelligent (and “up with the times”, of course). Lives in Newbury, Berkshire, a place scarcely impacted by the migration-invasion. Probably comfortably-off financially, as well. Typical msm type, on the face of it.
That tweeter claims that only a “relatively small number of people are very anti-immigration“. Well, recent polls indicate that about 35%-40% of the British or UK-resident population think immigration the most important politico-social issue facing this country, so on that basis alone immigration is a very great concern for well over a third of voters.
If you take out non-white UK residents, that would be well over 40%.
That, however, is not the end of the matter. The other 50%-65% are, most of them, still “concerned” about immigration (taking out non-white votes, maybe 75%?) but, when asked to prioritize, have put cost-of-living, NHS, and housing or other topics above immigration. Many would still say that mass immigration is in their top five issues.
I believe that I saw an opinion poll recently to the effect that about 80% (without the non-white votes maybe 90%), have at least fairly considerable concerns about the invasion and occupation.
In other words, tweeter Penny French/Penny Horwood is the one in the “small minority”…

Rees-Mogg does not seem to know the history either of England or of his own party. The Conservative Party does not go “back to the early 18th Century“, as Rees-Mogg says in that clip, but only to the 1830s, over a hundred years later.
It is true that a faction of the Whigs in the 1780s, friends of Pitt, are sometimes regarded as the ancestors of the Conservatives, but they were not so called at the time, which anyway was at least 50-60 years after the “early 18th Century” suggested by Rees-Mogg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative_Party_(UK)#Origins.

There are wider questions of course, such as whether care homes of all sorts should be (as they now are) cash cows for exploitative profiteers such as, in the past, Duncan Bannatyne (the Dragon’s Den know-all/know-nothing), or run and organized quite differently.
Wider still is the question of the general —and quite apparent— slide in standards since Britain became “multicultural”. We just do not need such backward populations in our European lands.

Despite that, Russia is winning, slowly, in Ukraine. It has the positional and strategic edge now. The Kiev regime can only decrease, as the Russian forces increase in both size and tactical skill.
So long as Russia has its nuclear arsenal, the West will always pull back from direct attack by NATO (NWO/ZOG) forces. Before the USA changes that caution to recklessness, it should consider what the USA would look like without its top 50 cities…
Ukrainians have joined the losing side several times in key moments of their history, and now they are again working against their interests, said the former adviser of the President of Ukraine Zelenskiy Alexey Arestovich.

“Three in ten troops from across the Armed Forces are not fully fit for combat, official figures have revealed.“
[Daily Mail]
The MOD still claims that up to 50,000 Army people are fit for actual combat. Others say that 30,000 is a more realistic figure; some say as few as 20,000. Are they seriously suggesting taking on Russia, China and others simultaneously with that puny and probably ineffective force?
“A former leader of the Shin Bet domestic security force has said Israel will not have security until Palestinians have their own state, and Israeli authorities should release Marwan Barghouti, jailed leader of the second intifada, to direct negotiations to create one.
Ami Ayalon, a retired admiral who also commanded Israel’s navy and was wounded in battle and decorated for his service, also said destroying Hamas was not a realistic military goal, and the current operation in Gaza risked entrenching support for the group.
He came relatively late to his current views, after leaving the military where the enemy is just a target to be killed, he said. His position at Shin Bet required him to regularly meet Palestinians, including visiting PLO leader Yasser Arafat.
He made Palestinian friends, among them PA security chief Jibril Rajoub and Sari Nusseibeh, a philosophy professor from Jerusalem who can trace his family’s presence there back to the 7th century. “So can I tell him, OK, this land is mine and you are a visitor here? It is nonsense.”

It may be that, in a century or so, historians will look back on the early 21st Century and say “that was the time just before the last great wave of revolution and war, when everything changed forever“…

Surely even tweeters such as the above (who probably thinks himself very clever) might think twice once a hundred million, or more, invade the UK?

Or are such people out-and-out traitors, doing —or wanting to have done— more damage than old-style terrorists or spies could ever do?

The latest “grifter” to have been exposed more widely (he has been mentioned occasionally over the last few years on this blog— “read it here first”…). He thus joins other frauds and thieves such as “Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas), “Supertanskiii” (surely the least interesting of the lot, socio-politically— entirely derivative and unoriginal), and others who have found a happy hunting ground or grift-mine on Twitter/X and other online sites.
Don’t you remember? He was as cringe as that Russ in Cheshire. Always fundraising and went by the name as man behaving dadly. Cringe account that’s now been outted as a grifter too.
I had forgotten about “Russ in Cheshire” (who seems in fact to be yet another one actually in or from Essex, unless I am mistaken). Russ-in-Cheshire is on a similar page to the others, but poses mainly as social or political commentator on the fringe of humour, and has written a book about politics or society. He even appeared on at least one TV quiz show (The Chase? Not sure; maybe it was Eggheads, now that I think about it). I think that his team even won some money.
The key to successful UK online “grifting” seems to be to avoid simply begging for money. The more cunning “grifter” pretends to be a kind of charity worker or philanthropic type, raising money for others and giving —what at least is presented as— good advice.
Thus “Bootstrap Cook” and her dog’s dinner “recipes”, “Man Behaving Dadly” and his charity stuff (with rather a lot of the proceeds shaven off for his own shekel-store) and so on. Not forgetting Julia Grace Patterson, with her “NHS champion” grifting, while taking in donations and selling facemasks etc. In her case, the USP is that she is actually a medical doctor (though she only worked as such for a couple of years).
I presume that that other prominent “grifter”, “Supertanskiii”, lacks the ability to produce any tangible output or activity, so restricts herself to swearing at “the Tories”. Amazingly, some people are satisfied with that alone, and are willing to send her money just for that! Utter mugs.
Going through the YouGov MRP data to add some tactical squeezing. If just one third of Lab-LD-Grn voters in England and Wales vote tactically for the strongest party, the result changes to: Con 69 (-100 on MRP) Lab 463 (+78) LD 70 (+22) Nat 28 Grn 1
I predict that tactical voting will play a big part in the 2024 General Election. What will weaken it, though, is that it is clear to more and more people that none of those Lib-Lab-Con System parties is worth a plugged nickel.
Also, there are those who will always vote for one System party rather than another, even when, in that particular constituency, the loyal voter’s own party has never come first, or even second.
Still, I think that, now that even former Conservative Party voters want rid of the Con Party in government, tactical voting for the least-objectionable alternative will be widespread.
That may mean, as the tweet implies, that the utterly unmeritorious LibDems may be able to gather in a pretty considerable number of MPs. I was thinking 30, maybe at peak 45, but the tweet above says 70 (they have 15 at present). If so, remarkable, looking at the untrustworthy rabble that the LibDems are.
You are going to be in for a very big surprise when Labour hardly shifts from the current policies being undertaken.

LibDems are just wastes of space. There may be exceptions, but I have not seen any. Ed Davey is only marginally better than was Jo Swinson, and she was rock-bottom in every respect.
Even the old Liberal Party was mostly ludicrous in the post-WW1 (let alone post-WW2) era, though Jo Grimond was an exception: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_Grimond.
As to the LibDem chances in the upcoming 2024 General Election, I may be wrong but think them overestimated by commentators. Admittedly, many voters who despise the present Government and who see nothing in Starmer-Labour for which to vote may be looking for a protest vote, and some (those who do not favour Reform UK, the Green Party, or simple abstention may choose the LibDems, but I think not very many.
There are presently-Con seats where Labour has no chance, but where the LibDems often roll in second. Those seats may go LibDem, especially if Labour voters vote tactically. I cannot see the LibDems getting more than 10% overall (2019— 11.6%).
In both 2017 and 2015, the LibDems got below 8% after the years of Con Coalition. There is no possibility for the LibDems to revisit the 23% they achieved in 2010. “You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but not all of the people all of the time” [Abraham Lincoln].
However, what matters in UK Parliamentary politics is not the overall percentage, but the percentage concentrated in particular seats, which is why, in 2015, UKIP received 12.6% of the vote but only the one seat it already had, whereas the LibDems received a mere 7.9%, yet retained 8 MPs.
So it may yet be that, in the end, even on an overall 10%, the LibDems, who currently have only 15 MPs, will able to double or even treble their Commons strength.
Meanwhile, if Reform UK gets, nationwide, the same, or even 15%, it will probably end up still without any MPs.
The present pseudo-democratic system is a bad joke.

“Kiev’s air defense forces are exhausted, and the West is in no hurry to help – Financial Times.
In the absence of new tranches of military assistance from the United States and the European Union, Ukraine is increasingly concerned that Ukrainian military personnel and military and industrial facilities may be vulnerable to Russian airstrikes, writes the Financial Times.
As Russia intensifies its campaign to strike energy infrastructure and other targets in Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky called on Western allies to approve new military aid packages to bolster Kyiv’s depleted air defense capabilities.
According to Zelensky, there are not enough air defense systems both on the battlefield and for the defense of targets in Ukrainian cities. Kiev admits that Russia “controls the sky.”
At the same time, the Ukrainian Armed Forces hope that Ukraine’s receipt of American-made F-16 fighters will put an end to the dominance of the Russian air force and help resume the counteroffensive, which has so far failed to achieve any significant successes.“
Not so many people want to be bothered by real problems, let alone real solutions. The masses want to be distracted by winning or losing sports games on the other side of the world, the latest soap trash on TV, the latest “reality” (unreality) TV show, or whatever.
Also, there are huge numbers of idiots virtue-signalling online or otherwise about how it is “kind” or “decent” to allow a million, or ten million migrant-invaders into the UK, or a hundred million if it comes to that. We have already had ten million, over 20+ years.
Those “virtue-signallers”, the “refugees welcome” dimwits etc are lacking the intellectual honesty to admit that that means the end of our basically decent European society, and the end of opportunities for most British people. It also means a housing crisis, a transport and roads crisis, a gradually-worsening NHS, gradually-sinking (in real terms) pay, State benefits, pensions etc, as well as educational standards falling through the floor.

Anyone who thinks that the likely Starmer-Labour government from 2024-25 will be better than the bunch of clowns currently in office is being very very silly.
Having said that, the only way to (“peacefully”) destabilize the failed two-party rigged system in the UK is to destroy at least one major party. The “Conservatives” have volunteered, by their corrupt ineptitude, to be that party. At the upcoming General Election, all that is required is for people to punish the Con Party by not voting for it. Either abstain, or vote anywhere but Con.
Tice, of Reform UK, is scarcely my kind of politician, but he has caught the mood. In a recent interview (a few days ago), Tice made the necessary point: punish (his word) the Con Party, no matter whether voting for Reform UK means more Labour MPs. Labour will almost certainly “win” anyway, and almost certainly with a large majority. Think strategically. Wipe out the Con Party by either abstaining or by voting anywhere but Con.
Good. Another total waste of space gone. I never liked what I saw about or from him.
“He is also a member of the Free Enterprise Group of MPs, founded by Liz Truss, and along with Truss, Priti Patel, Kwasi Kwarteng and Dominic Raab, he co-authored After the Coalition (2011) and Britannia Unchained (2012). The authors of Britannia Unchained claimed that “Once they enter the workplace, the British are among the worst idlers in the world.” [Wikipedia].
So wrote a man who has never done a day’s actual or non-political work in his life. He was even useless as an MP and junior minister, getting sacked at least three times from various portfolios (despite having been one of the least rebellious and most toadying of the Conservative MP-cadre).
Skidmore tries to present an “intellectual” front, but not convincingly. He does not have the horsepower, when all is said and done.
Skidmore, though now claiming to have resigned on a matter of principle, had himself earlier said (in 2022) why he would not be continuing as MP:
“On 26 November 2022, Skidmore announced that he would be standing down at the next general election, later stating in Parliament that ‘my constituency of Kingswood is being formally abolished in the boundary changes and there is nowhere for me to go.’[37][38][39]” [Wikipedia].
Translation: he has been both useless and disliked as MP and junior minister, and no other constituency would want him once his present one is abolished. In any case, there may well be few Conservative Party seats left after 2024.
Skidmore has spun getting kicked out of Parliament (by the time of the 2024 General Election) as a principled resignation, no doubt hoping to be given some lucrative and maybe environment-oriented quango appointment later. He might have been better to wait to see whether he would be in line for a peerage. No chance of that now.
…and the Zionist Jews in the UK, at least those making public statements on Twitter/X and/or on msm, are following that line; as are political doormats such as Starmer and that little Indian money-juggler currently posing as Prime Minister.

“The Tories have been lying —they’ve been gaslighting the British people, promising them one thing while delivering something else altogether.
They promised “lower overall numbers” only to then send net migration soaring to levels that have simply never been seen before in British history.
They promised to “take back control” and restore Britain’s status as a self-governing nation only to then completely lose control of Britain’s borders.
And now –as the latest data shows– we can see that while they promised a high-skill, high-wage, and highly-selective immigration policy that would attract “the best and the brightest” global talent they have instead delivered the very opposite.
They’ve further pushed open the floodgates to a new era of low-skill, low-wage immigration from outside Europe —the very kind of immigration which, as the latest studies show, is a net cost rather than a net benefit to Western economies and welfare states.
They need to stop lying to the British people. They need to level with the British people and admit that what they have delivered since the vote for Brexit is the total opposite of what they promised.
The British people deserve better than this. And it’s high time somebody speaks up and gives it to them. They deserve the truth. And they deserve leaders who will give them nothing but the truth.”
…and they deserve political leaders and parties not in hock to the international Jewish lobby and/or Israel lobby.
Farage’s betrayal of his own Brexit Party in 2019 will not, I think, be repeated next year at the 2024 General Election.
Of course, Reform UK is “controlled opposition”, but if it can contribute to the trashing and binning of the “Conservative” Party, and so to the destabilization of the rigged two-party system in the UK, then good. I hope that it does well, on that basis.

“The Conservative MP David Davis has spoken of how he fought off an attack near parliament as he intervened to help a rough sleeper who was being beaten up.
Davis, a former cabinet minister and leadership contender, said he aggressively stood between the attackers and the homeless man, and dodged two punches.
After “manhandling” the main attacker away, he took the beaten-up man, whose name was Gareth, back to his Westminster flat and let him stay the night on the sofa.
He took Gareth to St Thomas’ hospital the next day, because he was still bleeding.
The incident on Tuesday was first reported by the Evening Standard.
Davis, who trained with the SAS before entering parliament, said it appeared the attackers were “very vicious” and addicted to the drug spice.”
[Daily Mail]
David Davis is one of the very few MPs for whom I have any time (albeit with reservations). Britain might have been in a better place had he, and not David Cameron-Levita-Schlumberger, become leader of the Conservative Party. He has always struck me as basically honest and decent.
Come to think of it, were Davis —even now, aged 74— to stand for the Con Party leadership against Rishi Sunak, he might have a serious chance.
Moreover, Davis is the kind of straight bat that might appeal to many voters, and so at least take the gloss off Labour’s expected triumphal procession to elected dictatorship in 2024. Who knows? He could possibly even do better than that.
Davis’ background from when he was at university (late Sixties and early Seventies) to when he became an MP (1987) is hard to make out from the Wikipedia entry [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Davis_(British_politician)], not least because he seems to have not only worked for Tate & Lyle for 17 years but also to have spent a further 4-5 years in business-related student activity during the same years. Still, his background is basically solid, not a confection of lies and talked-up nothing, unlike the CVs of so many Conservative Party MPs.
“A top Tory reported to police in a trans row has vowed to continue speaking up for women’s rights and said she refuses to ‘deny reality’.
Rachel Maclean, the Conservative Party‘s deputy chairman for women, found herself embroiled in a storm after sharing an online post about an aspiring Green MP who is transgender.
The post labelled the Green candidate as a ‘man who wears a wig and calls himself a ‘proud lesbian’.
In a social media backlash, Mrs Maclean was accused of transphobia, which she denies, and reported to the police, who saw no reason to get involved.“

What does it say about the Green Party, which allows a loonie of that sort to be a Green Party candidate?
Homelessness has many causes, but it would be naive to presume that the migration invasion is not one of them, particularly when, over the past 30 years, non-whites and even new immigrants “straight off the (small?) boat” have been prioritized over the needs of the host white British population.
About a million invaders (“legal” and “illegal”) over the past year alone (700,000+ “net”). It is unsustainable, and is breaking apart what is left of our society.

Eastern Ukraine. Fighting at present is concentrated in a small part of the front. Both sides have had limited tactical successes, but Russian forces are sure to achieve victory in Ukraine, strategically.
Kiev-regime funding is being cut back in the EU and USA; Kiev-regime front-line soldiers are not being replaced; there is a recruitment crisis in Ukraine; the Kiev-regime army is running short on arms and ammunition compared to the Russian forces; also, the Kiev regime itself is now politically unstable.

In my view, Lewis Goodall has missed the point. Recent polling has made plain that the majority, indeed nearly 70%, of those planning on voting for Reform UK have no expectation of Reform UK winning in their own constituencies, or maybe in any constituency. They are going to vote for Reform UK as a “**** you!” snarl to the System, to the way things are going generally in the UK (especially England), and against mass immigration and migration invasion.
I see parallels to the 2016 Brexit Referendum. One man, walking his dog (in Blackpool or nearby, I think), was interviewed in the street at the time. He was asked about the possible negative economic consequences of Brexit, but answered (brilliantly, in a way) “I don’t care about all that. It’s only me and the dog, anyway…“.
The msm journalists did not understand that man’s attitude, thought it a result of stupidity, or “poor education” (because he, presumably, had not acquired some useless Mickey Mouse “degree” from a “university” of which no-one had ever heard).
In fact, that man was saying that he was not “aspirational”, did not care about the inflated supposed value of some other people’s houses, did not have sons and daughters called “Josh” or “Olivia” wanting to take (and being able, financially, to take) unpaid “internships” at the EU Commission or Milan fashion houses etc, that he never travelled by helicopter or private plane, and had no share portfolio.
That man was also saying that he had seen Britain decline in almost every way in the past 40+ years, and had seen it invaded by untold millions of unwanted immigrants.
As I tweeted at the time, “Brexit means more than Brexit“.
People voting Reform UK (and I myself do not “support” Reform UK, partly because it is yet more pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby “controlled opposition”, partly because it is not a social-national party, partly because it supports finance-capitalism) do not expect Reform UK to win many, or even any, Commons seats. They want to say “NO!” to the general state of this country.
[cartoon from the time just after the 2016 Brexit Referendum]
As for the pleas of the Conservative Party that voting Reform UK will not get Reform UK MPs elected but simply allow Labour to win more seats, my judgment is that intending Reform UK voters want the Conservative Party MPs to be voted out, and they want the Con Party to be stamped on hard. Why? Because they feel that they have been both betrayed and let down generally…and they have been.

Only 1% of illegal migrants who have arrived in the small boats since 2020 have been deported from Britain. And even 95% of Albanians have not been removed, despite Albania deemed "safe" in UK law. Dismal stats for Rishi Sunak & government
Goodwin has some useful things to say about immigration and migration invasion but, on the negative side, seems to be obsessively pro-Israel, pro the Jewish lobby etc. Have I missed something about him?
“Afarmer who was filmed dragging his white husky along the road while it was tied to the back of his car before she died has avoided jail.
Kim Norman Rendall, 65, was filmed callously dragging his pet pooch Daisy by a rope for around 200 metres, along Timsbury Road in High Littleton, near Bath.
Bristol Crown Court heard numerous motorists witnessed the horror and tried to stop Rendall by beeping and flashing their lights at his red Nissan Micra. But he refused to get help for Daisy and later left her to die in a cow barn.
Daisy was eventually found by police but was left severely injured in the incident on the afternoon of April 17 this year and had to be put to sleep nine days later.
Rendall was sentenced today to eight months in prison, suspended for two years, 300 hours of unpaid work alongside a 20 year disqualification from having or keeping animals with the exception of cattle, and fish.

Inadequate. The retired policemen recently convicted for a few trivial jokes and remarks on WhatsApp got about the same.
Animals are still not adequately protected, including protection by deterrence.
If ever an animal cruelty case demanded at least a token few —or several, or more— weeks in the clink, this was it.
The matter is now in the hands of higher powers, and also, perhaps, those of local residents.
“Sir Keir Starmer‘s immigration policy is based on a lie. A well-intentioned lie, a lie designed to make us feel better about ourselves; but a lie nonetheless, a lie that will eventually bring down any Government he gets to lead.
He trotted out his falsehood again and again in interviews yesterday. Labour‘s solution to illegal immigration was to ‘break the gangs’.
Ah, what a delightful idea. Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could blame the Channel crossings on a few evil people traffickers?
We could then regard every illegal entrant as a victim — the highest accolade our debased age bestows. We could imagine them all as desperate families who have been exploited by callous mafiosi. We could divert resentment of illegal immigration away from the illegals themselves.
The trouble is, it’s piffle. The idea that demand would dry up if there were no middlemen is a fantasy. Blaming people-traffickers is sheer deflection.
We are, in other words, just starting a new age of mass migration, a völkerwanderung. How we deal with it will define the politics of every wealthy country. I have no doubt that much of the legal infrastructure we put in place after World War II, including the UN Refugee Convention (1951) and the European Convention on Human Rights (1953) will end up being dismantled.“

As Hannan says, the post-1945 legal architecture was never designed to allow potentially —and quite literally— hundreds of millions of migrant-invaders the “right” to invade Europe. That is the scale of the danger facing us.
“A third of both Gen Z and Millennials admit they get so nervous when they eat out they are afraid to order their own food – and have to ask someone to do it for them.
A new study found ‘menu anxiety’ is most felt by those aged between 18 and 24 as 34 per cent confess they ask others to choose and speak to the waiter for them.
And when they do finally order, a third (33 per cent) of 25-34 year old’s will choose what to eat based on what will look best on social media.“

Is this a sign that evolution is telling us that the present society does not deserve to survive in its present form?
“Britain’s Net Zero minister flies 7,000 miles from the Cop28 climate summit and back again just to vote on Rishi Sunak’s Rwanda Bill.”
[Daily Mail]
I saw about 10 mins of Sky News coverage of that ludicrous COP28 jamboree. Some woman, a total clown, was talking about how vital it all was (just like it was last time, and in Copenhagen in 2009, when it turned out that the idiots could not even organize their own conference without creating chaos).
This is akin to the Covid “panicdemic”— those preaching from on high, from their massively-polluting private jets, do not really believe the bs they want the masses to believe (and so be compliant with all manner of “official” demands and restrictions).
“One in five young Americans believe the Holocaust did not happen, a shock poll has found.
The survey, by The Economist and YouGov., included 1,500 people ranging in age from 18 to over 65 years old who were asked a series of questions about the massacre of six million Jews.
Approximately 20 percent of people aged 18 to 29 agreed with the statement ‘the Holocaust is a myth’ and even more believed the death toll has been exaggerated.
“Another survey asked 1,500 Americans if they agreed or disagreed with the statement, ‘The Holocaust has been exaggerated.’
For the 18 to 29 group, 23 percent agreed, and 26 percent neither agreed or disagreed.“
So at least 49%…
People are waking up to the fraud and fakery.
The msm bias and absurdity is plain: the Daily Mail scribbler thinks that “the holocaust” is an “event“…
“A British advertising firm has allegedly pulled a billboard campaign that pictured Israelis kidnapped by Hamas on October 7 following ‘an unusual volume of complaints from the public’.
The campaign was organised by the Israeli Embassy…
London Lites terminated what was meant to be a two-week ad campaign on boards throughout the capital after just six days, Jewish News reports.
The company reportedly said that it had received thousands of complaints in response to the posters, which picture Israeli hostages and feature the now-famous hashtag ‘Bring Them Home Now’.
The Israeli Embassy in London said in response to the adverts being taken down: ‘We regret that the “London Lites” company caved to the threats of an extreme minority in the UK, which forcefully tries to limit freedom of expression.
‘The Embassy is considering further steps against the company.“
[Daily Mail]
So the Israeli Embassy deprecates “the threats of an extreme minority in the UK, which forcefully tries to limit freedom of expression.“
Ha. They should talk to their collaborators in the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] in that case. That malicious cabal is engaged in a persistent campaign to do just that— to limit and kill off the freedom of expression of British people, as witness my own persecution over the past decade, culminating recently in actual prosecution, a prosecution procured by political pressure exerted by the “CAA”, and the Jew-Zionist lobby generally, on the CPS, right up to the level of the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Indeed, it is the “CAA” that has recently had vans driving around London carrying large illuminated posters of the Gaza hostages. The “CAA” is a major collaborator of the Israeli Embassy in this and other activities.

I think one of the dumbest arguments I've heard in a long time is that the Tories are wrongly raising the salience of immigration. Wrong. What's raising the salience of immigration is actual record levels of legal & illegal immigration. People want to talk about it.
If I say so myself, who shouldn’t, that blog post has held up rather well over the intervening 5-6 years. I hope that more people see it (there were a couple of hits today) before the (((usual suspects))) manage to use the suborned legal system to censor or even temporarily remove the blog.
If interested in why national populism is persisting and has proved to be far more durable than people thought in 2016 see thishttps://t.co/P78Hh3naxV
“Why” is easy to understand. Pseudo-liberal “democracy” has not been providing the people with what they need. However, “populism” without social nationalism becomes merely a fake, a front for those who are under the thumb of Israel and the Jewish lobby. Think Farage, Tice, “Reform UK”. What think you, Monsieur Goodwin? Oh…
'The Tories are on course for a historic and very heavy defeat.'
Professor of Politics and International Relations @GoodwinMJ says Rishi Sunak can't win the next election 'by appealing to Remainers and Labour voters'.
It is even possible that the Conservative Party will get a nationwide vote-share of well below 25%, or even below 20%, as even formerly die-hard Con voters are turned off by the sheer ineptitude of the bunch of clowns pretending to be a Cabinet and Government.
Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] puts the Con Party result for 2024, on the above premises (based on a 16% Con vote), as a total of 39 MPs (even a 20% vote might give the Con Party only 59 MPs).
Much, of course, depends on whether the Labour vote holds up or not. If it falls below 40% nationwide, the result might be very different.
Still, Goodwin must be right as far as “historic defeat” is concerned. In 1945, the Con Party was left with 197 MPs; in 1997 only 165. At present, it seems as if the 2024 result might be even more striking: somewhere between 25 and 125 MPs.
In 1997, in Russia, a poacher shot and wounded a tiger and stole part of its recent kill.

And they say we live in a patriarchal society. Rubbish!
Read that. Turns out that, as so often, the Chief Constable in question is a woman, and moreover one who, after a business studies degree at what was then Sheffield Polytechnic, joined the police in Cambridgeshire. Her Wikipedia entry contains no detail of any interesting cases or arrests, just a careerist plod (no pun intended) upwards on the bureaucratic ladder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_Farrell.
A few more of those G.K. Chesterton quotations:
The thing that really contradicts Communism is not Capitalism, but a small property as it exists for a small farmer or a small shop-keeper.
Were Chesterton to live in our own times, he would have been “cancelled” by intellectual pygmies, would probably never have been published, and would quite likely find himself having to defend nonsensical and/or malicious allegations in the criminal courts.
My own political philosophy is very plain and humble; I can trust the uneducated, but not the badly educated.
Incidentally, Wikipedia’s piece on G.K. Chesterton contains the caveat “not to be confused with A.K. Chesterton“.
A.K. Chesterton [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._K._Chesterton] was a remote relative of G.K. and perhaps, possibly, probably (I do not know) named “A.K.” deliberately because of the connection, G.K. Chesterton then being a very famous figure indeed (who was even cited and quoted in novels such as Brideshead Revisited, published much later— 1945, in that case; Brideshead contains a scene involving a reading aloud of Chesterton’s Father Brown story, The Queer Feet [https://www3.nd.edu/~afreddos/courses/43811/queerfeet.htm]).
When, from about 1975, and at age 17 or 18, I became actively interested in contemporary British politics (in addition to my earlier and continuing interest in the Germany and Russia of the 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s), I heard tell about A.K. Chesterton at or around the League of St. George, in a couple of cases from people who had known him personally (he died in 1973).
I read a couple of copies of “A.K.’s” magazine, Candour, and carried on a brief political correspondence in 1976-1977 with some (?) Irish and certainly Roman Catholic lady who had continued the publication after the death of “A.K.”. Frankly, I did not think much of either. The young can be censorious, often too censorious.
Below, another gem very fitting for 2023 rather than 1923:
A society is in decay, final or transitional, when common sense has really become very uncommon. Straightforward ideas appear strange or unfamiliar, and any thought that does not follow the conventional curve or twist, is supposed to be a sort of joke.
The economy, NHS, border control, housing supply, and police, ambulance, GP, railway, court and prison services are all crocked. It's clear that Britain is an undeveloping country. My latest⬇️ https://t.co/bnFFAFYHxq
True, but the diagnosis is very clear to many. I have been blogging and, before that, tweeting etc about it for many many years. What also matters is the prognosis, and then the treatment necessary.
Paul Embery is one of the most consistent advocates for freedom of expression on this platform. Many others who talk about freedom of expression really only support it for those they agree with. https://t.co/AKOTpqwqdx

“Ukrainian intelligence today revealed chilling images from the scene of the assassination of Ilya Kyva, a ‘traitor’ and former Kyiv MP turned Putin puppet.
Kyva, 46, was gunned down last week as he went for a walk in a supposedly safe location at a country club near Moscow – the latest of several collaborators to have been assassinated in recent months.
Images from the scene show his body lying in the snow – and the weapons supposedly used to ‘liquidate’ him were discovered hanging on a tree nearby. Video was also released apparently showing the assassin lying in wait in the snow and watching passers-by.
The SBU secret service made clear the images and footage were deliberately released as a warning to other Ukrainians collaborating with Vladimir Putin’s invading forces.
‘This is a signal to all traitors and war criminals who have gone over to the enemy’s side,’ a Ukrainian source told media.“

Reform party is now up to 11% with two pollsters this week. YouGov and now Redfield & Wilton. And this is BEFORE Farage shows his cards. If I was a Tory I'd be very very anxious …
Yes. If Farage and Tice actually fight the 2024 GE, unlike their behaviour in 2019, when they stabbed their own followers in the back and enabled “Boris”-idiot to lead the Con Party to an unmerited victory, Reform UK might manage between 15%-20%. Even 15% would sink the Con Party, leaving Con Party with about 53 seats, depending on the Lab and LibDem showing. If Reform UK can get to 20%, and if most of the extra votes come from Con Party, the latter might be left with as few as 14 MPs.
My own guess, on present showing, is that the nationwide vote for Reform UK might exceed 15%; not sure.
My other guess is that the Con Party will be left with between 50 and 100 MPs.
That, of course, will mean a Labour Party elected dictatorship.
Late music
Update, 7 December 2024
Well, as far as GE 2024 is concerned, I got it right, or almost right: Reform UK did fight the General Election and, despite the unfair/illogical FPTP voting system, got 14.29%, which gave them 5 MPs (under a pure proportional-voting system, it would have been 92 or 93 MPs).
The Con Party did get hammered, ending up with a few more MPs —121— than the 50-100 I predicted.
As for the Labour “elected” dictatorship, yes, that also happened. Despite only getting 33.7% of the voted vote, Labour now has 411 MPs (out of 650).
