Both pretend that Russia is some kind of invasion threat to the UK, which is total nonsense. Both are in the pocket of Jewish and/or Israeli interests.
Meanwhile, as the System-party Punch and Judy show continues, day after and week after week, the migration invasion also continues. 1,000-2,000 per day in small boats across the Channel, and another ~5,000 per day via “legal” routes (“business visas”, “students”, “fiances/fiancees”, “spouses”, fake “tourists” etc).

In the 1960s, 1970s, Britain still had avenues open to it that would have taken the country in better directions. Now, in several ways, but mainly by reason of the demographic changes, the black/brown (etc) invasion and births etc, we are being painted into a corner.
That poll is an outlier, in that other recent polls give Reform a Commons majority (this one would be 27 short, but in practice about 17 short), and this poll has the Cons in third place instead of fifth.

As to the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], this blog addressed the CAA “lawfare” campaign(s) both recently and on previous occasions:
[“The CAA is a foreign influence operation which acts on behalf of the State of Israel, a hostile and illegitimate genocidal Jewish supremacist state. Its directors, staff and donors should be investigated by the security services under the National Security Act. This attempt at a private prosecution is a Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation (SLAPP), and an act of desperation by the State of Israel in a propaganda war it has already lost. The State of Israel, via the CAA, is attempting to buy its way into the criminal justice system to silence critics of Zionism. They will fail. The Left Legal Fighting Fund is aware of several SLAPPs being brought by the CAA on behalf of the State of Israel against British public figures. We will defend those who are targeted with lawfare by the Zionist movement. To donate, go to: http://fightingfund.org/donate To notify us of a SLAPP the CAA is pursuing against you, DM me or email info@fightingfund.org We will defeat them. #DismantleZionism.“]

Part of the answer to that is the reason why it is pointless for General Blimps in the British Army to issue statements about the (non-existent) “nation” pulling together to face war with Russia (which is unnecessary and being contrived by secretive cabals in London, Paris, and Tel Aviv).
War with Russia is unnecessary. Conflict of any kind with Russia is unnecessary. War with Russia would leave the UK a charred and irradiated wasteland, and the way things are going, most of the survivors would not be English/British anyway.

[painting by Roman Bozhkow; it reminds me of the time, in the Spring of 1982, when I slept in an empty birdwatchers’ hut, or hide, in the middle of a small lake almost right on the border of East and West Germany. It too had such a rickety wooden bridge joining it to the shore; a cold wet night, and the hut had no glass in the windows]
Seems that Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal have now left the Edinburgh Fringe, where they tried to have an American black comedian “cancelled” and even arrested, but failed, themselves being laughed and booed out of the theatre where they had staged an incident, no doubt partly so that they would later be able to claim some kind of substantial monetary “compensation”, as they had done before, notably in relation to Kuwait Airways. https://www.thejc.com/news/kuwait-airways-pays-damages-to-woman-barred-from-buying-ticket-at-heathrow-for-being-israeli-c1vcjc8o.
Incidentally, read that Jewish Chronicle report. It says thatMandy Blumenthal filmed herself trying to buy the ticket. What normal passenger does that? Anyway, it is clear that (((other persons))) were doing the filming and, indeed, doing so covertly. She, despite being a UK passport-holder, deliberately used her other, Israeli, passport, so that she could make a fake claim, and so make money out of the refusal to accept her Israeli passport.
Note how, in the full video (shown in that Jewish Chronicle report) she also makes a false claim that the poor ticket sales fellow is “racially abusing” her. Seems to be an ingrained trait.
So Mandy Blumenthal received “substantial damages“…I wonder. £10,000? £20,000? More?
Of course the lawyers involved on her side all eventually received fat fees too, because Kuwait Airways also agreed to pay her “full” legal costs.
A total scam. At least this time they were caught out.
Here’s the first video clip of Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal on the Fringe.
So far as I can tell, Reginald D Hunter is saying “Let’s end this peacefully”.
As I noted yesterday, I was quite surprised to see how immobile Lewis now is (by reason of multiple sclerosis). I might feel sorry for almost anyone else who is so afflicted physically (it may also affect him mentally, he being or having been on powerful drugs) but Lewis has been co-ordinating persecution of me by the Jew-Zionist lobby in the UK for about 12 years now, so any reserves of compassion I may have will be directed to others, others frankly more worthy.
Lewis is or was a “director” of “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”], which was behind the complaint about me to the Bar Standards Board [BSB], in 2014, which resulted in my wrongful and actually unlawful disbarment in late 2016 (8+ years after I had ceased active practice at the Bar). A typically malicious political stunt. See below:
“A longer version of the clip released later shows the officer explaining to Falter that his approach was informed by the knowledge he had already deliberately walked out into the middle of the march and was therefore “looking to try and antagonise this”.
John Mann, the government’s antisemitism tsar, said Falter had been “quite explicit” about his intentions at the protest. “There’s no ambiguity in what he’s doing,” he told the BBC, saying he had been blocked by the CAA on the social media platform X and they were “not playing it straight”.
[Guardian]
Falter crowed mightily in the “sympathetic” sections of the (((Press))) and (((TV))) after my 2016 disbarment. After his 2024 Central London stunt failed, even quite vociferously pro-Israel individuals, such as David Aaronovitch (himself actually only half-Jewish, despite the name) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Aaronovitch], heavily criticized Falter and the “CAA”:
Listening now to the full account of the "openly Jewish" incident it is apparent that Gideon Falter was angling for an incident just like this. And an officer eventually provided it. Worth looking at the @CST_UK statement
But sympathy for Falter is beginning to drain away now the full facts are emerging. He's even lost the support of David Aaronovitch now the latter has seen the full video.
Lewis has been making, with others, malicious behind-the-scenes attempts, since 2012, to have me investigated and even charged by the police. I am aware of some of the details, incidentally. In fact, he was working, partly, in conjunction with an equally-malicious “CAA” Israel fanatic, Stephen Silverman (“CAA” “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”), and others (some now defunct) for years, trying to “get” me.
Several times over the past decade, police constables (in their new role as a poundshop Stasi), or those PCSO play-police (ditto), have come to my door, but I have never been arrested by any of them (the PCSOs have no specific power of arrest anyway).
I was “invited” (required) to attend an interview a couple of times: see, e.g.
As readers can see, that attempt to have me charged failed.
The “CAA” sub-terrorists then, in 2017-2018, pressured the then Director of Public Prosecutions and the then Attorney-General to have me charged with “incitement to racial hatred”, a charge which requires the assent of the A-G. No dice.
The “CAA” and its cohorts had already pressured (pre-Elon Musk) Twitter to have my popular Twitter account shut down. It was shut down (in 2018) but, silver-lining time, the deletion of the Twitter account meant that the “Clown” Prosecution Service could not acquire the evidence to ground any such proposed “racial incitement” charge. The “CAA” idiots had shot themselves in the foot.
Incidentally, the ear of the then DPP was bent by Israel-lobby fanatic and then MP, Ian Austin, who wrote demanding my prosecution.
Now in the House of Lords, Austin once or twice tweeted that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized.
One of the few who actually supported Austin publicly was none other than Bristol University Jewish student girl Sabrina Miller, now scribbling fake news at the Daily Mail, fake news such as the recent contrived tale of the “victimized Israeli couple, Shimon and Talia“, who however were then unmasked as being Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal. Small world…
That did not stop Silverman and Lewis (etc), though.
The former made a completely false accusation against me in 2021, alleging that I had “racially-abused” him, something that was not only false, but in fact impossible, because I did not know his address or telephone number, had never seen him in person, and had no Twitter account (and had never once written, posted, or spoken to him). In fact, there was simply no evidence against me at all, but the suborned or compliant police of two counties still “invited” (required) me to an interview under caution: see
I still do not understand why Silverman was not charged with “wasting police time” or why he has also never been charged with the far more serious (indictable) offence of (attempted) perversion of the course of justice (there is actually no distinction). He is plainly guilty, having made a provably false criminal accusation against me. I suppose that “they” just get a free pass much of the time.
An account of my free speech trial last year (under the notoriously bad law of the Communications Act 2003, s.127, recommended for repeal by the Law Commission), my prosecution having been once again instigated by the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (Silverman):
Incidentally, Silverman actually turned up to gloat on both my day of trial in November 2023, and my days (there was an adjournment of a week or two) of sentencing in March 2024. He scuttled off pretty quickly after the sentence was handed down, and later tweeted (sub nom “CAA”) at how disgusting it was that I was not given a harsher sentence.
Incidentally Lewis’s behaviour towards his second wife, one-time minor “celebrity”, Caroline Feraday, apparently verged on —and arguably was— abusive. I don’t know about his first wife in detail, but both divorced him, in Caroline Feraday’s case after only a year. Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal are married now.

As said repeatedly (and it needs to be repeated), Starmer-Labour has no real mandate because, regardless of the large number of seats bequeathed by a ridiculous electoral system, only 4 out of every 12 voters that voted, voted Labour; indeed, only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters, because only 12 people out of every 20 eligible voters actually voted.
Even on the conservative basis of 4 out of 12 (33.7%), Labour really has no mandate to do all sorts of absurdly dictatorial things.

All part of the “blacks with everything” propaganda. Been going on for years now. Actual blacks are “only” about 4% of the UK population; even if you add in “browns” and others, the white (formerly known as English) population of the UK is still as much as 80% of the UK population, yet almost all the new faces on TV news and discussion shows are now non-white. A deliberate virtual “white genocide”.
Basically, 1,000+ people have now been arrested following the recent protests and connected minor “riots” (or violent outbreaks) here and there.
Many of those people have been charged, and many of those have been remanded in custody, meaning put into prison until trial (which might be as long as a year or more later, unless fast-tracked). Those who have pleaded guilty so far mostly seem to have been imprisoned anyway.
The fact is that many (probably almost all) of those imprisoned, either pending trial or after having pleaded guilty, are not in any way, even in the lay sense, “dangerous”. Many have no previous convictions, and even those who do (and the sentences of which have been reported after guilty pleas) have convictions mainly for non-violent offences (shoplifting, drugs etc).
What Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and (absurdly) Shabana Mahmood, have done is to release known and active criminals early (many non-white, and after they have completed only 40% of their sentences), in order to free up space which is now being used to incarcerate English people who are, almost all, not active criminals.
Those released early under that scheme will, many of them, re-offend within a fairly short space of time, whereas relatively few of those arrested in the aftermath of the recent protests will re-offend at all, ever, and certainly not in terms of violent disorder. That of course applies even more to those arrested/charged/imprisoned because they merely made comments, justified or otherwise, on social media.
It is beginning to look very much as though Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and the ridiculous Shabana Mahmood (currently posing as “Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice) have no idea what they are doing. To me, their over-reaction to the recent minor disorders that took place (by English people— those done by Roma Gypsies in Leeds, and Pakistanis in Birmingham etc, have gone largely unpunished) seems much like that of the Queen of Hearts in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: “Off with their heads!“
[“Off with their heads!“]
Incidentally, was there ever a “Lord Chancellor” and Justice Secretary less qualified? A moot point after some in recent years, I concede. However, Shabana Mahmood is an absurd choice for the role. She was only at the practising Bar for a few months, if that (after a year of pupillage), and then worked as a salaried gopher in a firm of solicitors, and only for a couple of years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabana_Mahmood#Early_life_and_career.
Shabana Mahmood’s entire legal career only lasted about 3-4 years.
She was probably appointed to placate the Pakistani Muslim element in the UK.
Pakistanis as such are now about 3% of the population; Muslims as a whole (many of which are also Pakistani but born in the UK) comprise 6% of the UK population now. Both anyway are significant voting blocs, and important in general political terms.
“Nearly early two weeks after its surprise incursion into Russia, Ukraine finds itself struggling to find a balance between seizing territory across the border in Kursk and losing it at the heart of the eastern front in central Donetsk.
On Friday, Ukraine’s commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, claimed advances were being made of up to two miles a day inside Russia, but Moscow’s forces have gained about three miles this month as the Kremlin bets heavily on capturing the hub of Pokrovsk.
In Pokrovsk, meanwhile, officials have stepped up civilian evacuations. Serhiy Dobryak, head of the city military administration, warned that Russian forces had “almost approached” the city and that alarm about its future was growing.
Until a year ago, Pokrovsk was considered safe enough to act as a regional base where journalists and aid workers could stay overnight. Its road and rail connections link the central city of Dnipro with Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Capturing it would in effect cut the part of Donetsk oblast still in Ukrainian hands in two.
There are persistent rumours that Col Emil Ishkulov, the popular commander of Ukraine’s 80th brigade, now among those involved in the incursion into Kursk, was removed from his position at the end of July because he was opposed to the incursion into Russia – unsure his unit had the strength for the task. At the time, soldiers from the unit issued an unsuccessful public appeal for him to be reinstated.
Sumy, which has a population of about 250,000, has remained busy and lively in the summer heat, though the noise of explosions from Russian glide bombs in the distance stepped up over last week. Its hospitals, though, have been filling up with frontline casualties, and an appeals for blood donations went out to help treat wounded soldiers a week ago. It took an hour for the need to be met.
The city has also received about 4,000 people fleeing the agricultural villages in the area towards the border in the north, many of whom plan to rent apartments.
In the border zone, six miles from the boundary, meanwhile, only a tiny handful of civilians and little functioning infrastructure remain. One shop with smashed windows was still selling groceries, but most places were boarded up. An aid agency, Global Empowerment Mission, supplies nearly 26,000 food rations every month because market supplies are absent, visiting frontline villages every week to distribute to the remaining population.“
[Guardian]
I recently examined this situation on the blog. My thoughts were that either Putin might push the incursion forces back using conventional military means, or blast the entire area from the air, destroying the Kiev-regime forces (as well as any unfortunate Russian and Ukrainian villagers still trying to live there).
Another possibility, less likely, would be a massive bombardment of either Kharkov or Kiev, using bombers and missiles.
Now, I have come to think that there is a fourth possibility, one which has roots in Russian and Soviet history.
When, as Tolstoy put it, in War and Peace, “the forces of Western Europe invaded Russia” in 1812 (the forces commanded by Napoleon were not all French, though about two-thirds were), the strategy adopted by the Russian leadership under Kutuzov, once he was appointed, was to withdraw and withdraw out of reach, while carrying out some limited flanking attacks and what we might now term “special operations”.
According to the preferred strategy, St. Petersburg, the capital, was protected both by troops and by distance, and so was never threatened by the Grande Armee. Moscow, however, was abandoned and set on fire.
Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow was famously disastrous, his armies all but destroyed by attritional flank attacks, cold, lack of food, and by disease.
Of the initial half million men, only about 100,000 made it back to France or other countries.
“On 24 June 1812 and subsequent days, the initial wave of the multinational Grande Armée crossed the Niemen River, marking the entry from the Duchy of Warsaw into Russia.
Employing extensive forced marches, Napoleon rapidly advanced his army of nearly half a million individuals through Western Russia, encompassing present-day Belarus, in a bid to dismantle the disparate Russian forces led by Barclay de Tolly and Pyotr Bagration totaling approximately 180,000–220,000 soldiers at that juncture.[21][22]
Despite losing half of his men within six weeks due to extreme weather conditions, diseases and scarcity of provisions, Napoleon emerged victorious in the Battle of Smolensk. However, the Russian Army, now commanded by Mikhail Kutuzov, opted for a strategic retreat, employing attrition warfare against Napoleon compelling the invaders to rely on an inadequate supply system, incapable of sustaining their vast army in the field.“
[Wikipedia]
In the German invasion and war of 1941-1945, the Wehrmacht advanced to within sight of central Moscow, but were then held and pushed back. Stalin was unwilling to abandon Moscow, the capital, for reasons of morale and administration.
However, elsewhere in European Russia, the Stavka (high command) allowed the Germans to advance and advance into the apparently limitless space (prostor, in the Russian word), as the German supply lines became elongated and eventually unable to supply enough food and ammunition; this came to a head particularly during the battle for Stalingrad.
Reverting to the Kursk situation in 2024, it can be seen that the operation was designed by Zelensky, against the advice of some of his commanders, as a public relations exercise. The suppliers of arms and vast amounts of Western taxpayers’ money had to be shown that the Kiev-regime forces were not beaten. Those forces achieved surprise, and, at first, considerable success.
The Kiev-regime forces were advancing several miles a day in that Kursk border region, but have probably now almost stopped.
Russian forces far to the south, in the Donbass, are advancing 1-3 miles a day, apparently. The Kiev-regime forces are outmannned and outgunned there, a situation made worse by the use of some experienced Ukrainian troops for the Kursk incursion.
What Putin could do (though it might be politically difficult) would be to do little but just about hold the line in the Kursk region, or even fall back on Kursk city (about 30-40 miles from the present front-line), while pounding the Kiev-regime supply lines and rear echelon areas. The Kiev regime forces do not have the manpower or ammunition etc to advance endlessly. Their tide may already have reached its fullest extent.
In other words, Putin could almost let those Kiev-regime forces in the Kursk region “die on the vine”, in MacArthur’s memorable phrase.
Once those Kiev regime forces are stuck in the Kursk region, or have retreated, or are destroyed, those forces will not be able to be deployed, or re-deployed, on the Donbass front. Even now, it looks as though Russian forces will soon split the Kiev-regime forces there into two. Once that results in further crumbling of the front, startling Russian advances may be seen, either in the next few months or next summer. All of Eastern Ukraine may fall to Russian forces in 2025.

The British people are becoming more sceptical of immigration at exactly the same time as Starmer’s Labour is doubling down on an extreme policy of mass immigration https://t.co/bt5seb8wMzhttps://t.co/B69OP48ooL
“A source told the newspaper [defendant’s immigration] appeal was ongoing when he pushed Mr Potoczek on the tracks and added: ‘It makes you wonder what exactly you have to do to be deported from the UK.‘
Shorsh had 12 convictions for 21 offences including assault, anti-social behaviour and outraging public decency.“

Notting Hill Carnival starts in seven days. I hope it’s peaceful and have enjoyed it in the past. But last year the disorder was terrible. 71 knives were recovered and 'one or two firearms'. Labour have set the bar high – or rather, the threshold low – for arrests. Let’s see. https://t.co/HbM9XS9Q0Rpic.twitter.com/Unjvl7iYoL
The Notting Hill Carnival should never have been allowed in the first place, and should be terminated now but will not be, because the Government is afraid of weeks of rioting and looting by blacks if such a step were to be taken.
I attended that carnival once, out of curiosity. In the early or mid 1980s. Absolutely ghastly. Intolerable noise, mostly from horrible amplified “music”. Intolerable crowds. Also, no way of getting out without walking miles. In the end, I walked all the way back to Little Venice.
492 illegal migrants entered Britain on small boats yesterday, taking the total since Labour's election to 5,492, & the total this year to 19,066. As I've said, with no serious plan it's only going to get worse … https://t.co/NmI46TvxuA

So it seems that the “poor and victimized” Jewish couple, supposedly targeted by an American black comedian, then booed out of an Edinburgh Fringe comedy show by the irritated audience, were none other than Mark Lewis, the egregious self-promoting solicitor, and his wife/partner/carer Mandy Blumenthal. They made a big fuss about emigrating to Israel six years ago. They said that Britain was too “antisemitic” for them to remain here, and so were, in effect, getting out while they could.
A pack of lies. They spend quite a bit of time here, and do not seem to feel any obligation to stay and help Israel in its hour of need.
If those tweets by Reginald D. Hunter are true (accurate), that puts another complexion on the “victimized Jewish couple” story as first published and broadcast recently.
First of all, one has to ask why Lewis and his companion went to such a show in the first place, if the comedian, one Reginald D. Hunter, is known for being “antisemitic” (I have to admit that I had never heard of him at all).
What was their motive even for going there if they were aware of the comedian’s expressed views?
It will be remembered by some that Mandy Blumenthal deliberately tried to book passage, quite many years ago, on a Middle Eastern airline operating out of Heathrow, and made it known that she was Jewish (perhaps using her Israeli passport rather than her UK one). Once refused by the airline, a “typical” fuss was made, both at the airport and in the (((Press))), and the airline quickly stumped up, apparently, quite a few thousand pounds by way of “compensation” (to shut her up).
Is this yet another cynical way to get money, this time out of the comedian, the promoter or the theatre? Was the whole thing contrived in advance, like that airline scam, or not? We do not know, and can only try to draw logical conclusions from what we know.
Reading about what the comedian said on stage, it seems that he recognized the “anonymous” Jewish couple of the Press stories, and that that is why he said that he had been “waiting” for Lewis, assuming that it was Lewis, to turn up:
That’s even before one considers the way in which he treated his ex-wife, one-time low-level TV face, and radio voice (now washed-up and over the hill), Caroline Feraday. I have little time for her anyway, so let’s leave that aside for now (she joined with Lewis in abusing me very unpleasantly on Twitter, about 12 years ago, so she deserved to suffer once she married him, in my view).
Sabrina Miller, when a vociferous Jewish girl student at Bristol, found time to defend Jewish-lobby-puppet and then-MP, Ian Austin, who had tweeted that bestiality pornography and other similar material should be decriminalized. Now she is a “journalist” with the Daily Mail.
The Mail might not have the best reputation, but it really should draw the line at contrived “stories” such as this Edinburgh Fringe scam.
Looks to me as though the audience recognized Lewis specifically, and were loudly disapproving for that reason.
As for the comedian, the promoter (if any), and the theatre, they should resist any contrived legal claim that “any” ambulance-chaser might make…
This all makes me feel that “a certain person” was right (about “them”)…
And as you probably know, Sabrina Miller has form: see her role in trying to smear @Tracking_Power (David Miller – no relation) as an antisemite when he was working at Bristol University (claims which were destroyed in court).
There’s an air of unreality to prosecutions designed to nip unrest in the bud by handing down disproportionate sentences. English law, honed over centuries to match punishment to evidence, is misfiring. Many defendants have pled guilty without trial. Cases need testing by juries. https://t.co/ykuP6ExHuX
What does Starmer think those imprisoned protesters, tweeters, Facebook posters feel about the UK government of traitors now? Happy? Angry? Determined?
"More than 1,000 people have been arrested, with almost 600 charged so far. Some of those charged have been children, including two 12-year-old boys, a 13-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy."
God help John Betjeman, were he still alive. “Come, friendly German bombers, and drop your bombs on Slough“… he would probably be arrested by the “Anti-Terror Command” or other poundshop UK Stasi police, and/or imprisoned for years.
Misleading headline. She’s talking about the dangers of deifying the NHS.
Also look at this nuts analysis from Sky’s Health correspondent. “The health service is our most cherished institution. Very few people would dare to attack it.”
Almost anything now published or spoken by msm scribblers and talking heads can be discounted. If they ever cross the line into uncomfortable and “unapproved” reality, they soon lose those lucrative jobs— and they know it.
