As I had presumed.

Possibly a clever “oblique” move by Putin on the world chessboard.

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

Thoughts about the potential restructuring of society in the UK

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

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

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

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

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

Of course, that crazy nonsense does not represent all of the USA or all Americans, but one wonders whether such a society has any real resilience. Maybe not.

So what else is new? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_trial_of_O._J._Simpson.

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

The UK should have such a law.

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

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

It seems clear that Labour Party members are, yet again, the foot-soldiers of a political army the heads of which ignore their views and preferences.

Once again, we see the influence of the Jewish and/or pro-Israel lobby, which is pervasive in our corrupt political system. In the Labour Party Deputy Leader contest, “they” made sure that they won. How? By backing both contenders. That is their usual method.

After what the Israeli Jews have done in Gaza (70,000+ mostly civilian dead, hundreds of thousands injured, tens of thousands of homes, shops, hospitals, schools, universities, and roads destroyed, embargo on food, water, and medical supplies, and military behaviour that can only be termed perversely sadistic), the priority is, apparently, recovering the remains of a small number of deceased Jewish hostages…

The hostages should never have been taken, or should have been released at an earlier stage, but when one looks at the behaviour of the [Israeli] Jews in Gaza etc, one can see why the hostages were kept as a bargaining counter and collective human shield (that idea did not much work, though, because the Netanyahu government and its armed forces carried on bombing Gaza anyway, heedless of the safety of the hostages).

[“Colombian mercenaries of the Armed Forces of Ukraine complain about long delays in payments and even their complete absence after receiving an advance, and ask the Colombian authorities to take them out of Ukraine Among other things, in the report, the mercenaries talk about the lack of rotation when debt accumulates — meaning there will be no debt after the mercenary’s death.“]

Interesting, but my own fairly youthful taekwando training (I was 28) ended with a cracked rib and waking up in pain for about 2 months. The pain mostly disappeared after a short time each day, but the old joke is true— it does hurt when you laugh…

Martial arts were never my thing, but the real exponents are fascinating. I did a short self-defence course about 30 years ago (1995 I think, when I was about 38) and with a small group of others, was taught by a renowned Japanese master called (as far as I can remember) Dr. Honda, who held black belts in various Oriental martial arts disciplines, including a rare honorary Dan rating which I believe was held by few if any others, or so we were told; told also that Honda was in the Guinness Book of Records, but I do not know whether that was so.

Dr. Honda was 84-y-o, but looked more like 50-something. He was only in the UK for a brief teaching tour. A dryly humorous person in an appropriately inscrutable way, he was like something out of a film. He could move, especially his arms and hands, quicker than the eye could follow.

Dr. Honda could put large and —at the time— fairly fit people like me (I swam half a mile to a mile nonstop, several times per week, then) on the floor in a split second, keep that person down using only a thumb or a couple of fingers, and if you struggled, could cause immense pain just by very slight pressure of a digit; I presume that he was expert in locating pressure points of the nervous system. Amazing person.

Henry Williamson, by any other name an English National Socialist:

Henry William Williamson (1 December 1895 – 13 August 1977) was an English writer who wrote novels concerned with wildlife, English social historyruralism and the First World War. He was awarded the Hawthornden Prize for literature in 1928 for his book Tarka the Otter.

He was born in London, and brought up in a semi-rural area where he developed his love of nature, and nature writing. He fought in the First World War and, having witnessed the Christmas truce and the devastation of trench warfare, he developed first a pacifist ideology, then fascist sympathies. He moved to Devon after the Second World War and took up farming and writing; he wrote many other novels. He married twice. He died in a hospice in Ealing in 1977, and was buried in North Devon.”

All the System parties now have small memberships. The fake “Conservatives” have officially somewhere between 100,000 and 120,000, but probably well below 100,000. Active members are very few now.

To a large extent, the whole “democratic” political system in the UK is a kind of mirage, a view completely unreal. The supposed “credibility” of the “main parties” is founded on a mere projection of “credibility” and “importance”, which is totally fake. Look at the last half dozen Prime Ministers of the UK.

A good point by Jayda Fransen, and one about which I have wondered in the past.

We can point the finger, and with some justice, at Sweden and the Swedes (for behaving as total “cucks”), but we have to say that other countries and societies, not least the UK and the British, are or have been little better.

Looking at her background, Katie Lam will inevitably be conflicted, as Shakespeare alluded to in The Merchant of Venice: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katie_Lam#Early_life.

Inevitably, she will partly be in favour of European values, but also partly inclined to trash them.

[“People who are not-British, who are not from these islands, do not have a moral right to stay here. If they break our laws, if they do not contribute to our economy, if they impose enormous financial costs on British taxpayers, they should go. And by “go”, I mean back to their countries of origin. This means we should leave any international convention or court that prevents us from doing that. This is either a functioning nation-state or it is not. This will be a major fault line at the next general election. Whether you believe in the principle of national preference (putting our own people first), or whether, like much of the Establishment, you believe anybody and everybody has a moral right to move here, live here, and remain here forever, while imposing billions in costs on the British people and our children. This debate, one way or other, will settle the future of our country. Do not sit it out. Do not support fringe parties or figures that will go nowhere and merely help those in power. Focus your energy in a place that matters, in a place that will make a real difference. The future of your country now depends on it. This debate is coming one way or other. And the Common Sense majority have to win it or our country will simply be ruined.“]

Starmer, Macron, Merz, other puppets and political frauds “leading” nations of, mostly, so far, sheep.

I begin to think that the hidden hand guiding Europe to a massive and unwinnable war with Russia will not be thwarted, that Europe will (as Rudolf Steiner seems to have predicted) be devastated, and that all we, as social nationalists, can do is to form post-Aryan communities and withdraw from the main society; build for the future.

That may seem like defeatism, but we must be realistic. The “democratic” (Parliamentary road) way forward is under (((control))) in several ways (look at Reform UK).

Don’t forget that Gideon Falter has not only lied many times in public, but also has committed perjury more than once (though, admittedly, he has never been charged with the latter). The Rowan Laxton appeal case, 15 years ago, was one matter in which Falter’s sworn testimony was “not accepted”. The judge, in allowing Laxton’s appeal from earlier conviction in the magistrates’ court, gave little or no weight to Falter’s sworn testimony. Laxton, a member of the Foreign Office, later became an ambassador.

https://www.thejc.com/news/foreign-office-man-wins-appeal-against-race-abuse-claim-gyp2ql35

Falter and “Slitherman” (the two main public faces of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) are both hardened and prolific Jew-Zionist liars. They seem to have forgotten the Mosaic injunction “Thou shalt not bear false witness“…

This whole “proscription” thing is a mess. People should be punished for what they do (in concrete terms) not for saying things “in support” of this or that organization, or for belonging to something.

There you see, in Israel-puppet scribbler Dan Hodges, the sheer unreality of much of the UK milieu(x) of scribblers, talking heads, dim MPs etc. Especially in relation to the Ukraine conflict.

Hodges wants, or thinks he wants, to confront Russia, a state which possesses as many as 7,000 nuclear weapons. He seems to think it the acme of Realpolitik to pretend that the UK is “up for” war with Russia. “Bring it on“, say Hodges and dim politicos such as Ben Wallace, the ex-MP and (ludicrously) one-time Secretary of State for Defence.

Wallace, whose highest military rank was captain (in the Guards), was heard drunkenly proclaiming that the Scots Guards had beaten the Russians in some skirmish about two centuries ago, and could do so again. He was Secretary of State at the time…

I think that British people should require a far higher standard of both education and intelligence from those who aspire to political leadership.

As for Hodges, his view appears to be that not only should the UK and EU states stuff even more taxpayer money into “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime), and ever-more arms and ammunition, but even have British troops stationed there; maybe even actually fighting.

Needless to say (?), that would spark, if not WW3, then Russian attacks on both the British troops Hodges wants stationed in Ukraine, and possibly on the UK itself, depending on what those British troops were to do.

Incidentally, Ukrainian losses on the front-lines are between 1,000-3,000 per day. How long do you imagine British troops (the contingent of which would probably only be a few thousand, because most of the British Army is far from battle-ready) could last, if exposed to actual fighting?

Do scribblers such as Hodges have any conception of what might happen in a NATO war with Russia? To mention only one factor that might interest Hodges (who lives at Blackheath, S.E. London), the almost immediate annihilation of everything in the London area.

I might add that, looking at Trump’s smoke signals, there is every possibility that, in a war with Russia, NATO itself would be conspicuous by its absence. It might well be “the Coalition of the Willing” (coalition of clowns such as Starmer and Macron) against Russia, with the USA itself standing back (along with China etc).

“Coalition of the Willing” v. Russia. Which one would you bet on, in a major war? We are talking about a coalition of the degraded nations of the UK, France, Germany, a few others. The idea is pathetic, and also rather dangerous if the politicians involved really believe in it.

Hodges thinks that a war with Russia is a risk worth taking, to protect the Kiev regime in Ukraine. There is a kind of mad delusion in this. Hodges is not the only victim. It is rife among Brit MPs and msm scribblers.

Ukraine has only existed as a state for 34 years, during which years its ordinary population has been consistently among the poorest in Europe (while a tiny percentage, often Jews like Zelensky, have amassed billions), and while it has been, consistently, the most corrupt “state” of Europe.

Kiev-regime Ukraine has abandoned elections (effectively forever), banned trade unions and all real opposition parties and voices, and kidnaps men off the street to serve on open-ended forced “commitment” on the crumbling front lines. In fact, few serve for long before being killed, badly wounded, or captured.

Is “Ukraine” worth supporting as it now is? I say no.

Would mean 333 Reform MPs, 134 Lab, 69 LibDem, 46 Con (etc). Reform majority in Commons— 7 (bare) or ~21 (working).

[“Can anyone help explain what was going on here. Today I was driving near High Wycombe. A Thames Valley police car was behind me for a minute or so. As I came to a complicated set of mini-roundabouts, it turned on its blue lights and set off its siren, forcing me to pull over in a dangerous section of road between the roundabouts. A policeman came over, bent down by the window and asked in the chummiest of tones: “Are you having a good day?” I said I was until he showed up. He asked if my name was Jonathan Cook. He then asked what I was doing here. I responded that I was visiting family. Was that a problem? He answered that it was routine to make checks on what he called “cross-border activity”. When I asked him what he meant by “cross-border activity”, he said the car was registered to an address in Bristol, and that was a two and a half hour drive away – it’s not, it’s 1 hour 45 minutes away. He added that it was a long way to come. I must have looked slightly stunned. He told me not to worry, wished me well and – with a smile – said I could continue on my way. Have others had a similar experience? Is it now normal to be stopped in the UK simply because you’re driving more than 90 minutes from home?“]

Low-level (political?) intimidation. I have no idea who is the tweeter, but his Twitter/X bio-details say “Writer, journalist, self-appointed media critic. Winner of the Martha Gellhorn Special Prize for Journalism. Bristol / Nazareth“.

The poundland police state in the UK, which has mainly emerged since Blair took power in 1997, and which became both overbearing and totally stupid during the 2020-2022 years of the “Covid” “panicdemic”/”scamdemic”, is still rather velvet glove and not (yet?) iron fist, but the essence is still police-state-ism. That police car stop was really saying “We know who you are, we know where you live and [unspoken] we know you take an interest in Israeli/Palestinian matters”…

A shot across the bows, in short.

I now see that the original tweeter is indeed interested in Palestinian matters:

Anyone, from central government, local government, the Press, the TV or radio, or wherever, encouraging or facilitating the migration invasion of this country, is a traitor to the future, and must be designated as such.

Maybe twits such as Ben Wallace and Johnny Mercer might like to re-read that at their leisure.

The lady has still not cottoned-on. No-one, or almost no-one, is intending to vote for Reform UK, as such. The voters are intending to vote against both Lab and Con, and the method for doing that effectively is via voting Reform UK. Das ist’s

As for that lady tweeter’s #Moderates label, it seems to be a party, or intra-Conservative caucus, which exists only in her own mind.

Witless” better describes both Ben Wallace and pro-Israel scribbler Camilla Tominey.

The System TV shows are full of “experts” saying how many troops it might take to “contain” Russian advance forces. 100,000-300,000, apparently. If push comes to shove, Putin could just drop nuclear bombs on those forces and then…no EU/UK army left. All gone.

There is no need for “the West” to “protect” Ukraine. We have nothing at all in common with either Ukraine or the Zelensky regime. Nothing. As for “Putin” (Russia) invading Central and Western Europe, the very idea is nonsensical.

Quite. Largely (though not entirely) because of “them” (((the usual suspects))).

Starmer-stein and Yvette Cooper will now put the invading hordes in British social housing ahead of needy Brits who deserve it so much more.

Some of the protesters interviewed there were politically brainless, true, judging from that report, but the people have just had too much, too much of being trampled on.

Surely Goodwin does not expect humility or indeed integrity from a Jewish-Zionist scribbler such as Finkelstein?

As Hitler said, “they” have never created a civilization, but have destroyed many.

Perhaps if the black “yoots” (aka petty black gangsters) were to stop shooting and stabbing each other? Maybe that would help? Just a thought…

The police are sometimes called “woodentops”, sometimes for good reason.

The main good thing about that officer, as far as I know, is that the malicious Jewish lobby dislike him (because of the much-reported incident involving liar/perjurer Gideon Falter of the fanatical Israel-lobby group “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, or “CAA”): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Rowley_(police_officer)#Commissioner_of_the_Metropolitan_Police

Overall, though, yet another careerist and idiotic quasi-traitor, it seems.

More Israeli war crimes. Every day, more atrocities. Speak out about what the Israeli Jews are doing and also about the link between Israel and the Jewish communities in the USA, UK, France etc. The latter act in concert with the former.

All very interesting.

[“Italian PM Giorgia Meloni hosted Volodymyr Zelensky at the Rome conference dinner – to remind Ukraine of its crushing debt to Europe, L’AntiDiplomatico reports. The dinner, hosted by “the duplicitous Meloni,” was formally meant to reaffirm economic support. In reality, it was a partial reckoning: The debt must be paid – they just need the right mechanism. According to the publication, the conference served as an opportunity to determine who would take charge of reconstruction – effectively seizing Ukraine’s wealth.”]

Irrelevant, because Ukraine east of the Dnieper, which is where almost all of the war damage is located, will be Russian territory before very long.

…and that actually happened, unlike the “German SS officer sniper” in the “faction” film, Schindler’s List

Incidentally, I think that many naive people think that Schindler’s List, adapted from the novel, Schindler’s Ark, is “history”, a factual account of events, whereas it is actually “faction”, i.e. mixed fact and fiction. You might compare it to the book and film, Day of the Jackal. In the latter, most of the main characters existed, as did most of the surrounding factual basis— the Algerian conflict, the OAS, General de Gaulle, the rebel leaders etc. The story, however, was a skilful blend of real events and made-up events and people.

As a matter of fact, the author of Schindler’s Ark (at time of writing of this blog still alive at the age of 89), was only a small boy in the early 1940s, and is Australian. His book is a novel, not “history” as such.

Rachael Maskell. Think I have not heard of her previously. Looks and sounds actually insane, as Dan Hodges says (and rarely do I agree with him!). She must be mentally-ill. Alternatively, she looks as if she might be affected by some drug or other. Her demeanour is very odd.

This is what Wikipedia says about Rachael Maskell: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachael_Maskell.

On the face of it, not Jewish, and identifies as “evangelical Christian” (like many pro-Israel non-Jews), though I note that her family seems to have been tied-up with some Jewish individuals.

53 years old, apparently unmarried, and has lived entirely, it seems, in areas not much or at all blighted by mass immigration— Highcliffe in Dorset, Winchester, Norwich, and the London Borough of Barnet (a heavily-Jewish area).

Very pro-Jew and (?) pro-Israel: https://hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2019-06-13/debates/EAE3C409-8761-4044-90CC-B1A26085D755/JewishCommunityContributionToTheUK

MP for York Central since 2015: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_Central_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

56.6% of the vote in 2024, so pretty firmly ensconced, it seems. Let’s see if Reform can get rid of her in 2028 or 2029.

Rachael Maskell MP— plainly treacherous. An enemy of all British people.

Incidentally, in that same 2019 House of Commons debate, part-Jew Ruth Smeeth (now in the House of Lords as “Baroness Anderson”), a proven agent of both Israel and the U.S. Embassy in London, and involved heavily with the malicious and mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” group, said the following:

“As my hon. Friend is touching on the battle of Cable Street, I feel that I should put on the record my pride that my grandmother spent the 48 hours in the run-up to the battle of Cable Street—she lived in the east end of London—putting razor blades into tomatoes to throw at Nazis. I take a great deal of pleasure in being able to contribute to such an important debate, because the Jewish contribution to British life has had many different forms.” [https://hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2019-06-13/debates/EAE3C409-8761-4044-90CC-B1A26085D755/JewishCommunityContributionToTheUK].

Leaving aside the fact that members of Mosley’s British Union of Fascists [BUF] were not National Socialists (I wish they had been, and wish they had fought for European race and culture instead of, as many did, fighting 1939-45 in British uniform against German forces, often in North Africa and then Italy).

Ruth Smeeth is pro-Israel, pro-ZOG, pro Jewish political street violence (members of her own family were also hard-core criminals and gangsters), and here we see her true nature exposed from her own mouth.

Ruth Smeeth has admitted in that extract that she thinks that street terror by criminal Jews is a “contribution to British life”.

With a grandmother of that sort, well…what can one say?…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Smeeth. Treacherous, an apologist for criminal activity and political street violence, and an agent for at least two foreign states. Now sits in the degraded “House of Lords”, and rules over the people she spied upon.

Ecce the “anti-fascist” type…

Good grief! What’s happening?! I agree with Dan Hodges again. Twice in a single day. Unglaublich...

I would, had I the political power, “stop the boats”.

How? By shooting down all cross-Channel invaders, and by rooting-out those facilitating the invasion (both on the European mainland and in the UK itself).

I should also “stop the boats” by degrading and punishing the Navy and Border Force (“Farce”) if they were to prove unable or unwilling to do their duty, then by replacing those orgs with another marine force, and/or by “privateers”, i.e. licensed “stop the boats” motor vessels crewed by bounty-hunters.

Further, I would task special forces (or, again, private and specially-licensed bounty-hunters, if necessary, i.e. if the SAS, SBS etc refuse to do their duty), those “privateers” or “bounty-hunters” to be charged with eliminating the gangsters in the EU (France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany etc) who are facilitating much of the invasion. Also, the fake “charity” “grifters” and other pro-invasion traitors.

Ironic, though, that Sweden, which now allows in every piece of trash from the backward parts of the world, is the only country to which I have ever been refused admission; at the port of Malmo, in 1982. The Swedes said that I was not carrying enough money to go around the Gulf of Bothnia to Finland. I was put back on the ferry to Travemunde, a small port on the then border between East and West Germany, the same day I arrived.

I would say “so another traitor speaks“, but of course Sajid Javid is not exactly a traitor, because he is not in any real sense British anyway; an apostate Pakistani Muslim who worships Israel and the Jews, and follows the crazed evil “teachings” of “Ayn Rand” (Alysa Rosenbaum), a mentally-disturbed Jewish woman sometimes called “the philosopher of selfishness”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayn_Rand.

For those unaware of the existence of this blot on the Bar of England and Wales, Myerson was briefly a Recorder (part-time judge) who was sacked about a year ago (though allowed to call it “resignation”) after he repeatedly abused people on social media. Also, his sworn testimony in the fairly recent libel case of Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased), and Cantor was not believed by the trial judge (who said so impliedly, if not expressly), which must say something about Myerson.

Good news but, by 2029, Yvette Cooper will be 60 anyway. Losing her Commons seat will, in my view, not be anything like the punishment that should be visited upon this would-be dictator, traitor, and expenses fraudster. Still, there it is, I suppose.

On the face of it, very impressive.

It seems clear that the USA was induced by the American Jewish lobby and Israel directly to attack Iran because Israel was in serious danger of losing the recent contest, its international airport closed, its ports mostly closed or avoided by foreign ships.

Those underground facilities in Iran indicate a long-term goal— regional hegemony. If Israel disappears, that leaves Iran as sole regional “superpower”, which may be why the craven Gulf Arabs are now effectively satraps of Israel and the USA. They are afraid of Iranian/Persian power.

War with Russia would be mad, but that does not mean it cannot or will not happen.

The real invasion (not the fantasy “Russian invasion”) continues, and will continue— unless the order is given to open fire, and neither Starmer-stein, nor Carpetbagger Kemi, nor Farage and his crew, will ever give such an order. They are all System fakes.

Diary Blog, 30 June 2025, including thoughts around the decaying remains of the one-time Soviet city of Vorkuta, Northern Russia

Vorkuta

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

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

https://meduza.io/en/feature/2020/01/27/europe-s-easternmost-city

I have only ever met one person who has been to Vorkuta, and his was an involuntary visit that lasted for many years; a Pole sent there as a young man, I think in or about 1940, along with many others. I believe that he somehow survived a decade there, and was eventually repatriated to his family in Bielsko-Biala, south-west Poland. Maybe about 65 when I met him and his family in 1988, he was a bit of a tough guy, and he must indeed have been tough, in more youthful days, to survive for 10 years as a prisoner and slave-labourer in Vorkuta.

Looking at that film (above), I am again struck by the harshness and brutality that humans can inflict on each other, but also by the incredible resilience and ability to create that humans have.

Vorkuta, like other cities in inhospitable areas and harsh climates (Magadan, Norilsk etc) which were wholly a product of the Stalinist period of the Soviet system (Vorkuta did not exist even as a hamlet until the 1930s), had at one time (1960s, 1970s, 1980s) a real city life, with a railway station, buses, an airport, a city theatre, hospitals, cinemas, sports centres, even a symphony orchestra; also, some fairly impressive-looking official buildings.

Vorkuta had, at one time, 115,000 inhabitants. The real population is now thought to be well below 50,000, perhaps as low as 30,000.

My point is that civilization is not a simple continuum. Rudolf Steiner, Valentin Tomberg etc have described human evolution as a staggered spiral. There can be breaks in the spiral. Civilizations or cultures arise, but also decay and disappear. Amazing places can be created and built out of “nothing”, but those same places can fall to pieces and disappear even from memory and/or from recorded history.

The beautiful city of St. Petersburg was created from swamp and forest by the vision, in origo, of one man, Peter the Great, and still exists, now with millions of inhabitants (it is commonly said to be the 4th or even 3rd-largest city in Europe, depending on whether Istanbul is accepted as European). On the other hand, famous Sparta left almost nothing behind it but memories become history. Troy was, for many centuries until its site was rediscovered in the 19thC, thought to be not even legendary but mythical. New York City was created from “nothing”, from the 17thC onward, and still exists, yet the huge cities which once existed in Mexico and Central America and elsewhere have either disappeared or been supplanted (as at Mexico City) by very different successors.

Vorkuta was built on brutality and suffering, but then so was Petersburg…

The world, particularly Europe but also the Middle East, North America, Russia, stands in peril from massive and probably nuclear war. The cities of the West and Centre of Europe also stand in peril from internal strife caused mainly by migration invasion by backward hordes from other parts of the world. Our present overall culture and civilization may not survive the 21st Century, not in their current forms.

We should all be thinking about these matters and about how to salvage as much as possible of our present advanced culture and civilization, should that become necessary.

The Bar is riddled with traitors. I should know; until a pack of Jews procured my (wrongful and actually unlawful) disbarment in 2016, I myself was a barrister, and saw how corrupt and also stupid the whole system is.

Rare but not unprecedented. Israeli orgs, usually Shin Beth, have arrested Jews and others in the past on espionage charges; people accused of being agents of the Soviet Union, then Russia; also for Arab states.

“Israel has two seaports, and Iran closed them, so there was no sea traffic. Iran also destroyed two oil refineries — in Haifa and Ashdod — or disrupted their ability to produce fuel. Iran closed Israel’s only international airport.“]

Letting existing sick and disabled people continue to receive help, but cutting off help (income) from similar people in the near future, ismorally wrong“, in my view. That is almost unarguable, surely?

That is the MP for Normanton and Hemsworth in Yorkshire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Trickett; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normanton_and_Hemsworth_(UK_Parliament_constituency).

Trickett cannot be bullied by Labour whips. He is already 74, so unlikely to contest another general election in 4+ years’ time. Also, he got over 47% of the vote in 2024, with Reform UK second on 29%. If deselected, he could, should he so choose, stand as Independent Labour, and so either win or let in Reform, which may have a good chance anyway.

Starmer-stein is too busy complying with whatever Israel and the UK Jewish lobby want done to actually do anything positive for this country or its (real) inhabitants.

So much of the msm/entertainment industry/music industry etc is in the hands of Jewish persons, and (as the Jew-Zionist orgs constantly remind us) about 95% of Jews in the UK support Israel, support the war in Gaza, the attacks against Iran (etc).

Even the Jewish anti-Zionist jazz musician, Gilad Atzmon, was targeted and persecuted by Zionist Jews, and his shows attacked or cancelled, to the extent that he eventually had to relocate out of the UK, to Greece: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilad_Atzmon.

For once, I have to agree with O’Brien. The fact is that the Jew-Zionist element in Israel, in Palestine generally, and also in countries such as the UK and USA, France, Germany etc, is out of control. “They” have grabbed both influence and direct power, and are abusing that influence and power.

[“The underlying discontent among rebellious and even loyal Labour MPs stems from what many would say is a pathetically late discovery: that what’s driving so much government policy is Rachel Reeves’s fiscal rules and the absolute power of the Office for Budget Responsibility in determining whether she is breaching those rules or not. Any illusion that this isn’t the single most important driver of government decision-making was shattered today by the revealed contradiction between its establishment of a supposedly fundamental review led by disabilities minister Stephen Timms to shape new criteria for awarding Personal Independence Payments, while nonetheless sticking with the contradictory stipulation that from November next year no one will be eligible for PIP if they don’t score four points on one of PIP’s existing criteria. It is absurd and illogical to characterise Timms’s review as the face of humane reform while simultaneously saying that this new four-point rule based on existing criteria will willy-nilly come into effect next year. So what’s really going on? The work and pensions secretary’s unspoken reason for sticking to the four-point reform is that without it, and under the OBR-assessed fiscal rules, Reeves would have to fill a £5bn hole in her finances in the autumn’s budget, and not the £2.5bn hole created by Kendall’s partial welfare-reform climb down. That is a big difference when it comes to any taxes Reeves may have to raise or any spending she may have to cut. So a growing number of Labour MPs see this subservience to the OBR and the fiscal rules as just the stupidest motivation for making today’s decisions that affect the lives of the most fragile of UK citizens – decisions that will, on the government’s own calculations, shift 150,000 vulnerable people into poverty. These MPs were bitten once by the OBR dog when Reeves chose to means-test the winter fuel allowance as proof of her fealty to the OBR’s jurisdiction over her own fiscal rules. With the disability reforms, many of them now feel twice shy. They don’t ask why a Labour government respects the OBR, especially after the Truss/Kwarteng fiscal debacle caused by their disrespect for the OBR. But they do question why the Chancellor and Treasury endow the OBR with an almost mystical ability to determine which policies are sensible and why Reeves has seemingly abdicated responsibility for trying to sell the government’s initiatives to the country’s creditors independently of the OBR and fiscal rules straitjacket. So whatever the outcome of the vote tomorrow on the welfare reforms, Reeves and Starmer are now under enormous pressure – probably irresistible pressure – to lose their OBR religion.“]

That bastard Timms again…

I think that people are generally awakening to the fact(s) that this is only a Labour government in terms of label. Labour-label. In reality, a Labour Friends of Israel government (misgovernment).

The allegations pertain to incidents from the 2000s and a rape allegation from the 2020s. Norris has been released on conditional bail while the investigation continues, and the Labour Party has suspended him, removing the party whip. 2.Mike Amesbury: In February 2025, Mike Amesbury, the MP for Runcorn and Helsby, was jailed for 10 weeks after pleading guilty to assault by beating. The incident occurred in October 2024, and Amesbury was suspended by the Labour Party following his arrest. Labour Councillors: 1.Lee Laudat-Scott: In July 2024, Lee Laudat-Scott, a councillor in Hackney, resigned after being charged with sexually assaulting a child under 13. His arrest marked the second paedophile scandal in Hackney Council within a year. 2.Ricky Jones: In August 2024, Ricky Jones, a councillor in Dartford, was arrested and subsequently charged with encouraging violent disorder. This followed a speech he made at a counter-protest in Walthamstow, where he allegedly called for violence against far-right protesters. The Labour Party suspended him pending the outcome of legal proceedings. 3.David Graham: In early 2024, David Graham, a senior Labour councillor in Fife, Scotland, was arrested and charged with alleged child grooming offences. Following his arrest, the Labour Party suspended him, and he was due to appear in court at a later date. 4.Desmond Gibbons: In late 2024, Desmond Gibbons, a former Labour councillor on Gedling Borough Council, was sentenced to 21 months in prison after being found with over 600 indecent images of children, some as young as three years old.

Can it be that ridiculous and unpleasant little pissant Darren Jones thinks that the NHS is somehow an economic contributor to the UK economy, when it is really something (albeit necessary, so be it) taking out resources overall? Worrying that the Chief Secretary to the Treasury seems to have no grasp of basic economics.

Interesting, but I am more interested in both the present main culture, i.e. our own, the “Germanic-Anglo-Saxon-American” (as Rudolf Steiner put it), and the next main culture (which still lies fifteen hundred years in the future), the Russian/Slavonic.

At present, the Russian culture is almost entirely a borrowing from older cultures, mainly the Graeco-Roman culture and our present “Western” culture, just as Northern Europe only had “borrowed” Graeco-Roman culture until around 1400 AD (or “CE”) and the eruption of the Renaissance, which was essentially a brief recapitulation of the Graeco-Roman age.

There are, as yet, only indications, seen here and there, of that future Russian culture.

Were there more limited foreign aid being sent, were vast sums not being wasted on the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev, were there no migration invasion, were there few non-whites living here, and were the UK a fundamentally white European ethnostate, this country would be hugely better off in every way; not only economically but also socially and culturally.

The trade unions stopped standing up for British workers about 50 years ago, certainly 35 years ago. The unions moved to being just another load of “anti-racism” “anti-sexism” pro-immigration and pro-LGBTXYZ drones. As for supporting higher pay and better working conditions, forget it. The unions long ago stopped seriously pushing for those, and had no power to do so anyway. A waste of space.

Tell that to people who will now be deprived of much or all of their income because of this Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment (Liz Kendall, Rachel Reeves and, of course, Starmer-stein himself).

I disagree with Goodwin there on one point: “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) does not need to be involved in negotiations to end the war, because Zelensky’s cabal has no legitimacy and, crucially, without outside help the Kiev regime side would collapse in weeks, maybe even in days.

Reform UK

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14280613/Reform-UK-Nigel-Farage-Labour-government-new-poll.html

Reform UK is now only a single percentage point behind Labour – putting their leader Nigel Farage within touching distance of Number 10 at the next election.  

New polling data from YouGov, commissioned by Sky News, puts Reform on 24 per cent and Labour on 25 per cent – down a whopping 9 percentage points from their winning vote share at the 2024 UK election.  

With the Conservatives on 22 per cent, the UK electorate may be about to usher in a new epoch of three-way party politics.

The new research puts Labour on 26 per cent, Reform UK on 25 per cent, the Tories on 22 per cent, the Lib Dems on 14 per cent and the Greens on 8 per cent.

In general the assessment of Sir Keir’s first six months in office is damning, with only 10 per cent of voters judging that he has been successful and an overwhelming majortity (60 per cent) saying he has been unsuccessful.

Labour insiders are also worried at how the party is hemorrhaging voters to other parties across the political spectrum.  

The new data found that they have retained only 54 per cent of supporters from the general election – while 7 percent have defected to the Lib Dems, 6 per cent to the Green Party, 5 per cent to Reform UK and 4 per cent to the Tories.

Meanwhile almost a quarter of those who voted Labour in the polls (23 per cent) either did not say, weren’t sure or had decided not to vote at all. 

Labour also faces a problem with elderly voters in light of policies like the removal of the winter fuel allowance, with only 14 per cent of OAPs now saying they would cast their vote for Labour – down eight percentage points from the election.

Naturally, Reform UK is not very close to me, ideologically. Pro Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, and (relatively) anti-welfare state; pro-finance capitalism.

Still, Reform UK has its uses. To move the “Overton Window”, particularly on issues of immigration, migration-invasion, free speech etc. Above all, to break up the LibLabCon “three main parties” scam which has been in place during my lifetime.

It may well be that all party politics will crumble to dust by reason of some existential catastrophe in the world, such as nuclear war, but that is another matter, arguably.

According to Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], the figures given, if replicated at a general election, might result in a House of Commons with Labour holding 287 seats, Conservative Party 128, Reform UK 107, LibDems 77, Green Party 4. That would indicate a Lab-LibDem coalition, or some lesser concordat, Labour being about 37 short of an overall majority on those figures.

Either ship him back or just get rid of him (and the rest).

When I was about 21-y-o, I wanted to get rid of hundreds of unwanted books, mostly paperback novels (spy stories and crime thrillers etc). I gave them to the Royal Marsden because I was then living at Reigate Hill in Surrey, only about 8 or 9 miles away from the hospital’s site at Sutton (though the distance seems more because the two areas are so different). I dropped them off at the hospital reception. I hope they at least passed the time for some of the in-patients. I suppose that must have been 1977 or 1978.

It looks, though, as if the lady tweeter noted attends not the Sutton site of the hospital but rather its other and older location, in Kensington (which would make more sense, because she lives not far from my old shooting club, the Kensington Rifle and Pistol Club, now all but defunct and no longer —since the 1990s, if not earlier—in West Kensington). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Marsden_Hospital.

3 disgraces in this story alone – underpaid NHS worker (my words not hers), crap & ludicrously expensive social care, food banks. I say I might have an offer you like and care passionately about fixing social care. And the rest. I also think doctors would run the NHS better, pen-pushers and deadbeat hospital CEOs, often from industry or politics, should be blocked off.

All right. Some good points, but was she saying all that when she was married to a Conservative MP and Whip (until a decade ago)? I do not know, but I doubt it. She was (and still is? I wonder…) a passionate supporter of the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and George (Gideon) Osborne, whose government of nasty nonsense, 2010-2015, imposed so-called “austerity” (for the poor) and spending cuts which permanently crippled this country in every way.

As for “food banks”, they scarcely existed until 2010. Only on a tiny scale, anyway. Another result of “Conservative” Party policies 2010-2015.

The Fiona Syms tweeter should think about why the Conservative Party presently stands at 22% in the opinion polls, 2 points lower than at GE 2024, despite the evident hopeless incompetence and unpleasantness of the “Labour” government of “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer and his little Labour Friends of Israel cabal.

People have not forgotten the 14 years of truly bad “Conservative” government 2010-2024, finishing off with the government of the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak; and now the “Conservatives” are “led” by a political joke (again), a Nigerian woman who only came to the UK at age 16, albeit that she spent a day or two here after her birth (in London).

Having said that, it is clear that Labour (too) is finished. After a week or two of Starmer-Labour misgovernment, I blogged as much, at which time the msm were sycophantically applauding Starmer (some stupid woman scribbler in, I think, the Guardian, even said that she found herself attracted to Starmer sexually!— Well, Henry Kissinger did say that “power is the ultimate aphrodisiac“…).

What stands out there for me is how only among those 65+ years of age is voting Conservative anywhere near the level required to ground a Conservative Party government. 35%. Not very impressive anyway, but dropping to only 25% among those 50-64 y o, and to only 16% among those aged 25-49 before almost disappearing among those aged 18-24.

It might be argued that those aged below 65 y o might well change their views when they age further (just as it was said by Soviet anti-Christian propagandists in the pre-1989 period that “only old women now attend Russian Orthodox churches“, but that was countered by those who noted that there seemed always to be another generation of old women at church…).

Yes, those now aged below 65 may well be more inclined to vote Conservative when they reach 65+, but in my opinion the numbers will never be higher, or even as high, as they now are.

If the percentage of those 65+ voting Conservative is now 35% or so, by 2029 that might easily decline to 30%, and lower thereafter. The same slide might also be seen, and probably will be seen, lower down the age scale. If the present 18-24 y o generation only vote Conservative Party at around 5%, that will almost certainly increase, but maybe only slightly, over the years to come. To what extent is hard to pinpoint, but maybe by only about 5 points in each coming generation, so at age 65+ maybe to about 20%.

Admittedly speculative.

That is assuming that the present voting and political system will still be here in 2060, 2040, or even 2030. Or the present world as we know it…

Until 6 months ago, though I already predicted on the blog that Starmer-Labour would be useless, I did not think that this government would or even could equal in infamy the totally s**t governments of 2010-2024. Well, I was wrong in that last. Starmer and his crew are as bad as, or worse than, any of the “Conservative” governments of 2010-2024.

I think that this comes within the category “shocking but not surprising”…

Yes. All true. However…where was Toby Young, and where was the “Free Speech Union”, when I was wrongfully (and, as it later turned out, unlawfully) disbarred in 2016, as a result of a concerted campaign by the Jew-Zionist lobby, specifically the overlapping “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”] and “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”]?

Likewise, where were the “Free Speech Union” and Toby Young when I was subjected to a “criminal” trial over my free speech rights, and this blog?

A law student is suing Cambridge University for discrimination after he failed his PhD and delayed his career working as a barrister.

Jacob Meagher is seeking ‘substantial damages’ from the world famous institution, alleging he was the subject of disability discrimination and victimisation following the failure of his law PhD.

Mr Meagher also claimed that his oral ‘viva voce’ interview, where he was questioned about his thesis by two examiners, caused ‘significant damage’ to his health. 

He ended up failing the examination, meaning he missed out on a opportunity to take up a tenancy at a ‘particular set of chambers’ and therefore ‘suffered a substantial loss of anticipated earnings’.

Outlining the claim, the judge said: ‘Mr Meagher…is a student at the University of Cambridge…undertaking a PhD in law. 

‘[He] did not successfully pass his final viva voce examination of his doctoral thesis.

Court documents also stated that the University’s Disability Resource Centre had recommended that at the viva, examiners follow a set of guidelines, produced as part of a Student Support Document (SSD), to help him.

These included asking specific rather than general questions, using the active, rather than the passive, voice and allowing him pauses and breaks after questions…to allow him to ‘mentally retrieve the words or information that he needed in order to answer’.

How on Earth does that litigant think he is going to survive at the Bar (unless he does no court work at all) if he cannot endure being verbally challenged, and needs time “to mentally retrieve the words or information that he [needs] in order to answer“?

You need a thick skin at the Bar. I should know. I was a practising barrister, in court almost daily, from 1993-1996 in London (often at the High Court, as well as in County Courts and both “the mags” and, less often, Crown Courts), and during 2002-2008 based in Exeter (though travelling widely across the UK and beyond).

Being put on the spot by a judge, especially a High Court judge (I was never at the Court of Appeal or the Supreme Court), can be a chastening experience even if the judge is (as most High Court judges are) reasonably courteous.

Woe betide the barrister who is unprepared, or whose instructing solicitors have fallen down on their job. I usually managed to put up a good show, or at least a good front, but I have seen other barristers fall silent, unable to say a word, or flounder helplessly; even, in one case (in Camberwell Magistrates’ Court, before a particularly severe Stipendiary Magistrate —the people called District Judges now—) actually whimper and almost burst into tears (it was a man, too…).

At one time, a barrister who was disabled, even physically, was at a huge disadvantage in trying to get into any chambers. Now, it is arguable that things have gone to the other extreme.

When I was in provincial chambers in Exeter, from 2002-2008 , there was a girl Bar pupil from Northern Ireland. She seemed pleasant and was afterwards offered a tenancy (after which she became markedly less pleasant). The point, though, was that she had a bad speech impediment. In my opinion, the Northern Irish accent is hard enough to understand, let alone when the speaker has a speech impediment. She did get some criminal and family work, though; low-level stuff.

In the end, that Northern Irish person gave up the Bar entirely (I was told) and returned to her native Ulster. At least there they were, presumably, able to understand what she said.

Worth watching.

What a ridiculous monkeyhouse Westminster is! Look at thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves (“Rachel from Accounts”) etc, all making noise, exchanging remarks, and laughing like badly-behaved schoolchildren. Then there is stupid Liz Kendall, sitting there like a nodding dog, and about as credible.

The mainstream media milieu is a cesspit. I was just reading about some person whose name, though I had seen it somewhere, in the back of my mind, conveyed little to me. A few years younger than me (I am now 68), he has died, and even years ago was looking at least a decade or more older than me, looking at photos in the newspapers. In fact, make that 20+ years older.

Apparently, that person had, at one time, in the 1990s, been spending £4,000 a week on cocaine, and drinking 4-5 bottles of vodka every day!

You could double or treble that sum to get the same value in the money of 2025.

That tells me that such System-approved msm types are both hugely over-remunerated and totally decadent. Britain needs a thoroughgoing cultural purge even more than it needs a political purge. Hitler-level. Stalin-level. Biblical-level.

Well, there it is. Switzerland has officially lost its senses.

Didn’t Rudolf Steiner say something about how the Goetheanum (near Basel) would be devastated by war? Cannot quite remember. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goetheanum.

The figures for age groups under 40 are problematic, because a fairly substantial minority are non-white so, in any real sense, non-Brit to start with.

Drones such as Barry Gardiner represent another world, another parallel thought-world, and one that has little to do with the British people. Completely out of touch.

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

Incidentally, Gardiner is a former Chair of Labour Friends of Israel, and remains a member.

Seems that “Rachel from Accounts and Customer Complaints” really is all at sea posing as Chancellor of the Exchequer…

A simple DNA test comparison on “Boris”-idiot and Charlotte Owen would put at least one out of the two most likely theories to bed, so to speak.
