So there it is. Israeli Jews are planning to deport non-Jews to Africa. Ironically, Hitler and the SS had a similar plan in the 1930s, to deport Jews to Madagascar. That might have really worked, and would not have created this “Israel”, which now (via its worldwide web) menaces the whole world.

“The Russian Aerospace Forces successfully hit advanced military infrastructure in Kiev – Polish media Myśl Polska.
According to the publication, during the missile attack at least two American NASAMS installations on the outskirts of the Ukrainian capital and a large warehouse with missiles for the Patriot air defense system were destroyed (in fact, this is why the Americans, headlong, announced the supply of shells for these same systems).“

That, if it were to happen, might trigger a Russian response of such a kind, and on such a scale, that a major regional war, or even a world war, might in turn then be triggered; so not a very intelligent suggestion. Or is that what the System wants to happen?
“The conflict between Zelensky and Zaluzhny is growing in Kiev: no one wants to take responsibility for the new law on mobilization.
The Financial Times again writes about the conflict between the political and military elites in Ukraine.
It is connected with the upcoming draft law on mobilization, within the framework of which it is planned to conscript at least 500 thousand people into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“Neither side appears willing to take full responsibility for conscripting hundreds of thousands of possibly reluctant Ukrainians to serve in a grim, grueling war,” writes FT columnist Ben Hall.”
The Kiev regime has run out of soldiers after the huge number killed, badly wounded, or captured. Zelensky’s cabal is trying to call up people over 40, over 50, even over 60. Also, some disabled people and those who care for them. The conscription or draft offices are riddled with corruption (bribery to avoid being drafted), and the main reason many have escaped Ukraine to Western and Central Europe is to avoid military service.
In the longer term, Ukraine as a “state” (failed state) has no future in terms of demographics. Young men are either fighting, or have been killed, or are hors de combat by reason of injury or capture. Others are overseas, as are huge numbers of Ukrainian women (and children).
The result is a rapidly-ageing population, and so also a declining population.

I remember visiting the UN Centre in Vienna sometime in the mid-1980s; cannot recall exact year now. I knew someone who was doing some temporary work there. I spent a couple of hours in the Centre.

I believe I read somewhere, years ago, that Israelis are often cruel to donkeys, which are such gentle animals, so ready to be friendly with humans. It is true that donkeys are over-worked and abused in other countries too, including Arab countries, Pakistan etc.
The Jew settlers in Israel/Palestine (often from the USA) are horrible, though, fully displaying the malice for which “they” have always been well-known.

Hard to believe, but there it is: “normal” life, or a semblance of it, despite the fact that that area, 2-3 miles north of Gaza City, has been attacked heavily from the air for two months, and despite the fact that heavy ground fighting has occurred recently at Beit Hanoun, only a mile or so away.

The forces of the Kiev regime may be able to launch missile attacks such as that on a Crimean port overnight, but the bigger picture is that the Kiev regime’s summer counter-offensive got nowhere and achieved nothing, that the Kiev-regime forces are rapidly running out of ammunition despite huge shipments from USA, UK etc, and that the Kiev regime is now very short of recruits, having to employ ever-more persistent press-gangs; Kiev is now asking EU states to repatriate Ukrainians living in the EU, so that the repatriated people can be put straight into uniform.
Russia is upgrading its heavy weaponry, building ever-more tanks, planes, and missiles. The summer of 2024 may see a general Russian advance which will overwhelm the ragged and exhausted Kiev-regime defences in Ukraine east of the Dnieper.
Even if that does not happen, the Kiev-regime forces cannot themselves advance. They have not the arms, ammunition, or men with which to do that. Their best possibility is to hold the line where it is.
The transnational conspiracy has had its support for the Zelensky regime sidetracked by the Gaza conflict; that is especially true of the USA. Zelensky and his cabal may be able to ban opposition parties, to arrest those opposed to war with Russia, to ban trade unions, and to refuse to hold elections, but what the Zelensky group cannot to is magic into existence more soldiers, more arms, and more ammunition.
The foreign mercenaries and other volunteers have mostly gone home now, those not captured or killed. The Kiev regime now seems to be paying mercenaries from countries with low living standards, such as Peru. Their pay is low. Still, you get what you pay for, quite often.
I doubt that many “contract soldiers”, even from regions such as South America, will now be applying to become casualty statistics in the Kiev regime’s failing war.
My assessment is that Russia is biding its time. That may mean no 2024 offensive (though, to the contrary, one may be launched in order to demoralize the all-important backers and “generous” suppliers of the Kiev regime in the EU and North America).
In the USA, the Presidential election may bring to power a President hostile to more support for the Zelensky regime. Trump is only the main possibility; there are others. Likewise in the EU. “Populist” parties are in the ascendant. Most do not want to funnel endless taxpayer funding to the ungrateful and failing Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev.
The conflict in the Palestine/Israel region, which has now spread southward to the Red Sea, is already impacting EU trade lines.
Economically, Russia is thriving, overall. While the West generally, and especially the EU, is faltering economically, Russia is doing fairly well. As I predicted 18+ months ago, the sanctions imposed have forced Russia to both diversify and to find other suppliers of food and raw materials. Sanctions rarely have huge, certainly not decisive effect anyway. I myself saw that when, aged 20, I was in Rhodesia (in 1977).
Ukraine (Kiev regime) is, by contrast, not thriving; it only keeps going by reason of the money and other support and aid supplied from outside. Its agriculture is finding export difficult, and some markets closed or restricted. The industrial sector is running at a low level. Electricity supplies are interrupted, and gas supplies more so.
In the long run, what will sink Ukraine as a state (failed state) is the very low birth-rate, combined with the huge numbers of Ukrainians now living in a number of EU states and elsewhere. In the short-term, the ranks of the army are not being replaced.
Russia will win (in Eastern Ukraine), and the NWO will retreat.

Looking at the bigger picture, this is but one of the terrible consequences of decolonization in Africa (etc) from the 1950s through to the 1970s. That process was itself a consequence of the disaster of WW2 and the even more disastrous defeat of the German Reich.
Who now —save for the ignorant and/or brainwashed— can doubt that the post-WW2 ending of European rule over Africa has resulted in war, civil wars, degradation of the environment, and misery for the Africans themselves, as well as irreparable loss of wildlife and tree cover?

Not a particularly original or surprising thought (or two), but never mind…
I happened to see, a day or two ago, a Celebrity Chase quiz show, I think first shown several years ago. Nadine Dorries.
Hard to understand why Nadine Dorries was on a quiz show, except for the fact that, though any money won goes to a chosen charity, the contestants are paid (how much, I do not know; I presume somewhere around £1,000).
I cannot now recall the exact questions asked of Nadine Dorries, but she knew very few of the answers, and was quickly knocked out. Her ignorance was, even for a cynic such as myself, almost beyond belief.
The above experience once more led to thoughts of how MPs now really are the bottom of the barrel. Compare them to the better type of MP from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s. Jo Grimond, the one-time Liberal leader, for example. A very erudite man who had also served in WW2 as an officer, and been a barrister. His memoirs are well worth reading, incidentally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_Grimond.
Not that I agree with all of his views, and the same would be even more true of Denis Healey [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denis_Healey], but these people had character, depth, real erudition, and were not simply self-serving careerists.
Compare them to (ex-MP) Nadine Dorries, to “Boris” Johnson, to Corbyn, to Keir Starmer, to Jo Swinson (a later LibDem leader of sorts), to Liz Truss, to Sunak, Matt Hancock etc… Among many many others.
Whatever method is chosen for selecting or electing MPs, Cabinet and other ministers etc, is of secondary importance. Prime importance must be given to the quality of those selected. In darker moments, I tend to think that the fall in overall quality of MPs just reflects the decline and/or degeneration of the society from which they have emerged.
Incidentally, on that Celebrity Chase show, Nadine Dorries claimed that she was the only MP not claiming expenses (in fact, she just meant certain “personal” expenses). Also, that she was campaigning to end MP expenses! The presenter was too polite (or short of time) to retort that she had already been caught actually cheating on her expenses several times, and had only just escaped prosecution: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadine_Dorries#Expenses_claims.
Zionism and Jews in the UK
Look at the tweet below, from the malicious Jew-Zionist cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”]:
To those gentilesplaining that “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism”, our representative polling of British Jews has found that only 6% are not Zionists, and 97% feel personally connected to events unfolding in Israel.
Yet we constantly see or hear, from Jew-Zionist “activists” (troublemakers), that Jews in the UK have nothing to do with Israel or what Israel is now doing to the people of Gaza…
We also see or hear that “criticism of Israel is legitimate, but any criticism of Jews is ‘antisemitic’ and (they claim) not legitimate“.
The “CAA’s” own survey indicates that at least 80% of Jews in the UK are content to accept the label “Zionist”, and that no less than 88% of them feel “personally connected” to whatever is happening in Israel.
Also, note the derogatory term “gentilesplaining“: in other words, non-Jews cannot say anything about Jews (but Jews can —and do— say the most insulting things about British and other European cultures and peoples).

“China has become the leading economy, Russia has become the largest economy in Europe, already breathing behind Japan in the race for fourth place. And Asian economies have seriously moved up the ladder.

Late thought about Ukraine
UK television news full of the Kiev-regime attack on the Russian ship, and saying that Russia is losing the battle in the Black Sea. Well, the Kiev regime no longer has a navy at all.
Naturally, the loss of a large ship, even a supply ship, is very bad but, the very same day, Russian forces took what is left of the city of Mariinka in the Donbass. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-67820916.
That is where the war is happening, on the ground in Eastern Ukraine. Russia is slowly winning there.
As for the attack on the ship, already the biased commentators on Sky News etc are heralding the dawn of a Kiev-regime strategic advantage in the Black Sea which does not exist.
In the final analysis, and if push came to shove, Russia could totally flatten Kiev and all other cities of Ukraine, if the leadership were so to decide. What is stopping that is firstly, that Moscow and Kiev were the centrepieces of Russian life for many centuries and, secondly, the fact that Russia is slowly winning this war.
Russia, though, is still one of the two main nuclear powers, and also has awesome conventional destructive capability. In extremis, that power could be unleashed. Kiev should be talking to Moscow about redrawing borders.
Merry Christmas to all well-intentioned readers of the blog.

There are, actually hundreds of similar examples, especially if you move from scientific-milieu examples to those of politics and economics. Lenin thought that the Bolsheviks would come to power when the 1905 “Revolution” (uprising) was taking place. Wrong… and Lenin did not think that the Tsarist state of Russia would fall as a result of the first (Spring) Revolution of 1917. Wrong again…

“A restaurant that drowned three hundred cats a month to fuel Vietnam’s cruel meat trade has been closed for good.
The Gia Bảo restaurant in Thai Nguyen city, in the country’s northeast, ran a lucrative trade selling cats, likely including stolen pets, drowned in a bucket one after another.
For five years, Pham Quoc Doanh, 37, ran the establishment after struggling to feed his family selling ‘other normal food and drinks’.
‘It was then I tried selling cat meat since there was no other available restaurant serving this in the area,’ he told Metro.
Doanh reached out to the Humane Society International, campaigning to ban the trade in Vietnam, who offered him a one-time grant to set up a grocery store instead.
On December 6, he symbolically tore down the banners outside his slaughterhouse and restaurant and began a new life.
‘For a while now I have felt a genuine desire to leave the cruel cat meat business and switch to something else as soon as possible. When I think of all the thousands of cats I’ve slaughtered and served up here over the years, it’s upsetting,’ he said.
‘Cat theft is so common in Vietnam that I know many of the cats sold here were someone’s loved family companion, and I feel very sorry about that.’
An estimated one million cats are killed each year for their meat in Vietnam, according to the charity – despite 71 per cent of the population favouring a ban.“
[Daily Mail]
Well, my opinion of Vietnam has never been very high (I admit that I have never actually been there), but at least 71% of the population apparently want this trade banned, and they do seem (from what I read today) to be taking steps in the right direction.

I have to admit that I have always found the idea of secret tunnels quite compelling. The KGB had a specific directorate specializing in tunnelling, though one finds little printed about it.
In the case of the Gaza tunnels, we are told that they extend for more miles overall than the London Underground, which has 250 miles of track, much of which, however, is overground. About 110 miles of the London Underground is actually below ground-level.
On that basis, only a small part, maybe 5-10 miles, or <10%, of the Gaza tunnels have been explored or destroyed by the invading Israeli forces so far. Information is obviously being restricted at present.
It makes me wonder whether similar tunnels do not also penetrate Israeli state territory from Lebanon or elsewhere, tunnels perhaps so far underground that they are undetectable.

This is an Egyptian teenager who delivers bread to Gazans through a small hole in the border wall between Egypt and the Gaza Strip, working harder than any Arab ruler.
When I was several months in Egypt in 1998, I used to really enjoy the flat bread fresh from local bakeries, usually bought from a hole in the wall about a foot or so wide. Still very warm, and with a unique taste not experienced anywhere else in the world. The (Egyptian) Arabic word for it is aysh, implying its importance to life.

“Labour MP Dawn Butler has vowed to report online message board Mumsnet to the Metropolitan Police after users on the site and other social media slammed her reaction to the Brianna Ghey murder trial verdict.“
[Daily Mail]
This is where we are now in the UK. Anything online that some idiot like Dawn Butler dislikes is now “reported”, either to the police or other bodies. If a prosecution under Communications Act 2003, s.127, occurs —and despite the Law Commission having recommended repeal of that as “bad law”— anything highly critical or satirical is now deemed “offensive”, and in practice as “grossly offensive” (and so unlawful).
It is a Kafka-esque farce which I saw at first-hand as defendant in such a case only last month.
The law in this area gives carte blanche to, especially, the usual malicious and politically-motivated Jew-Zionist whiners, such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, with the police and CPS as dupes.
Still, we must always remember that “the stars in their courses fight on the side of the just” [ancient Chinese proverb].
Dawn Butler’s actions give indication of what the likely “elected dictatorship” under Starmer may look like. Repressive.
Still, the only way at present to destabilize the mainly binary Lab/Con system is to knock out one or other main party. That will be the misnamed Conservative Party, which may be largely wiped out next year at the 2024 General Election, but the price for getting rid of the Conservative MPs will be a near-dictatorship under Starmer-Labour.
The developing “social dictatorship” trialled (in various respects) during the contrived panicdemic/scamdemic of 2020-2022.
If the authorities really wanted to address persistent (real) crime, they might start by banning anyone not on bona fide holiday, or bona fide recreational travel, from using a caravan or motorhome on the roads etc. You know what I mean…
“Britain’s rapidly shrinking military has prompted defence chiefs to shift hundreds of troops from the front line and into recruitment offices.
More than 400 soldiers from across the British Army have been ordered by top brass to join the effort to try and get more people to enlist.
It comes as figures from the Labour party revealed the Army has shrunk by more than 3,000 troops in the past 12 months, with 9,438 personnel leaving while only 6,308 joined.
Britain’s part-time reservist force is also shrinking despite recent efforts to grow it. Between October last year and September 2023, 5,580 reservists left and only 3,780 joined.
The latest recruitment statistics from the Ministry of Defence reveal the total Army strength plummeted from 79,139 to 75,983 during the same period, as recruiters failed to hire fresh new personnel to plug the gaps, leaving key roles unfilled.“
[Daily Mail]
So the first move in getting more troops on the front-line is to…take 400 soldiers out of the spearhead forces and sit them in offices?
“Lions led by donkeys“, as someone once said.
Why do we actually bother with an Army and Navy now? They seem incapable of stopping the only invasion happening, or likely to happen these days— the migration-invasion.
Empty bluster from political nonentities just makes Britain look even weaker than it is, and that is pretty weak.

The Internet makes mock of many things, and the various “little Britain” things especially. The overall situation, however, is not new.
In the 1930s, the public of the USA, France, Germany etc were aware, if interested at all, that Edward VIII was involved with a Mrs. Simpson. In Britain and its colonies, though, that was kept secret (from the British public) until 1937 (to be exact, from December 1936).
In the 1980s, similar situations arose. In the early 1980s, I was told that, at a State banquet held at the Banqueting House in Whitehall for an important Soviet delegation, and attended by someone I knew, the leader of the Soviet group said to a British minister how sad it was that former Prime Minister, Harold Wilson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Wilson], had become completely demented (Alzheimer’s, or similar). Apparently, the British minister nodded sagely before changing the subject.
So the Soviet Government knew, the British Government knew, but of course the British public did not know.
Meanwhile, in the rest of the world, those interested in the rather underwhelming book could buy it and read it without let or hindrance. Absurdly, the same was true in Scotland, because Scotland has its own legal system and the British Government had not thought to apply for any restrictions in that jurisdiction.
I myself had a copy of the book soon after publication. Not a total bore but not exactly riveting either. Had the Government simply let Wright, the author, sell the book without all the publicity occasioned by the attempt to ban it, it would never have become a bestseller. As it was, millions of copies were sold, and Wright died, possessed of huge royalties, in 1995.
In fact, had the Government paid Wright his full pension at an earlier stage, he never would have written the book, or at least published it.
Now we have the Internet. Anyone with, say, a Twitter/X account can publish or republish under their own name, or a pseudonym. The English courts are unable to prevent —and/or in most cases even punish— any breach of injunction, certainly not before millions of people around the world have seen the material.

The UK Government has money with which to close down the economy for months and years because of panic over a virus that killed hardly anybody, it has money to spend on housing and feeding hundreds of thousands of migrant-invaders, it has money to throw away as “aid” to the corrupt, brutal shambles posing the the “state” (failed state) of “Ukraine”, but little for the British people.
At the same time, in the UK itself, almost nothing works properly: the migration-invasion continues, people generally are getting ripped-off right, left, and centre, living costs continue to increase relative to both pay and benefits, the NHS is at best now a skeleton service, and the schools and supposed “universities” are churning out “highly-qualified” (thanks to award inflation) “graduates” who know, most of them, ****-all.
That does not cover the entirety of the shambles; just a selection.

“Former defence secretary Ben Wallace has warned Israel that it risks undermining the legal basis for its action in the Gaza Strip, adding to growing international pressure over the escalating conflict.
Writing in the Telegraph, the senior Tory warned against a ‘killing rage’ and said Israel’s ‘original legal authority of self-defence is being undermined by its own actions’.
The intervention by Mr Wallace, who left office earlier this year, is the latest warning to Benjamin Netanyahu’s administration amid deepening concern over the scale of civilian casualties.”
[Daily Mail]
Even pro-Israel drones such as Wallace are now trying to distance themselves from Israel’s “massacre of (mainly) the innocents” in Gaza.
The Israelis and other Jews may not be (mainly) descended from the original Israelites of thousands of years ago (the Jews of today being descended mainly from Black Sea or other Khazars), but the former model their actions on the Israelites’ genocidal wars as recounted in the Old Testament.
“Jack Monroe”
Certainly overdue for a reckoning on this one. She seems to have gone silent which is a good thing in terms of her dangerously misguided "campaigning" but can't help wondering why none of the celebrities that defended her have nothing to say now. #JackMonroe
I do think she wrongly perpetuated the idea that one could feed a family healthily for £20/week. Which was a lie. And contributed to some terrible stereotyping of pple in poverty. Aided austerity, rather than challenging it.
You're right. The lack of due diligence in fact-checking #JackMonroe backstory or whether any of her claims actually held any weight is a shocking indictment on the press.
Rufus Hound blocked me for suggesting that Jack Monroe was not as squeaky clean as people believed. @RalfLittle was also quick to defend the patreon. @Nigella_Lawson was taken in by the lies and, in turn, earned Monroe over £10.000 in a single month. Where are they now? pic.twitter.com/pLyp48i2EU

🇮🇱Zionist infiltration of our government and institutions is the ONE thing we’re NOT allowed to talk about.
If you do, you risk (in the UK) being prosecuted at the behest of the Jew-Zionist lobby, eg the malicious cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. They have corrupted or otherwise suborned the police and CPS. I myself was recently convicted in the magistrates’ courts by reason of such a prosecution, as regular readers of the blog will know (I may appeal; we shall see).
Incredibly, there are millions of poor saps who believe loonies and/or liars of that sort. If you are told constantly, for example, from age 5 or 7 or 10, or 14, and from all manner of “authoritative” msm and other sources, that millions of Jews were killed during 1941-1944 in “gas chambers” by German SS personnel in Poland, then that idea becomes embedded in your psyche, and stays there until you are, so to speak, “cured” in —usually— later life, whether that be at age 21, 28, 35, 42 or whenever.
They sit there in their armchairs, calling for genocide, while fellow-Jews smile and laugh in the TV studio or elsewhere, yet if anyone in the West posts a comment about them, or a satirical cartoon, they are —or pretend to be— horrified, and equate that to “terrorism”…

I myself once met a Metropolitan of Kiev (the second-ranking dignity in the Russian Orthodox Church). At breakfast. My then girlfriend was looking after him that day (he spoke no English).
I think that that was at the de Vere Hotel by Kensington High Street, and in the early/mid-1980s. Maybe 1983 or 1984. He gave me some of his kefir (the first time I had tried it) and, at the same time, deftly fielded a question from me about his view of Tolstoy. Later that morning, at the empty Russian Orthodox Cathedral (also in Kensington), he gave me a bottle of Moskovskaya vodka.
“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.

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.

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.

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.

An almost certain Labour gain. Reform would have to do well to show they can actually start chalking up some serious votes, not just decent polling intentions. pic.twitter.com/3fKvTn50Tk
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.

As to crimes unpunished, I have seen what happens in my own local and County area: real crime not even properly investigated, while fake “crime”, “thought crime”, “online comment crime”, is a, perhaps the, major preoccupation of absurd police people playing at “counter-terrorism” etc. Much of that is influenced by the Jewish/Israel lobby, and Starmer is completely in (((their))) pocket.
I see no real principle in Starmer, just a wish to exercise power for no obvious reason or objectives, unless it is to carry out the wishes of the transnational conspiracy.
In a way, Starmer might be better to stay almost invisible, as in the past year or so, but he must think that he has to begin to be noticed, as the next general election approaches. Anyway, barring the rather or very wealthy, and those elderly people who are die-hard and lifelong “Conservative”-label voters (perhaps 15%-20% of all voters), who really is going to vote “Conservative” next year? Starmer and Labour are almost certainly going to win by default.

The poster below is on the walls of at least one terminal at Heathrow today—
Jesus H. Christ! It’s just treachery, in plain sight. Not those two individuals; the System itself.
At Dover, of all places. That must be deliberate. This country is riddled with traitors, many in influential positions in politics, law, mass media and police forces.
Liverpool is too white. The Army is too white. English Villages are too White. The local church is too White. I am too White. You are too White. They want us gone. Replaced,extinguished,eradicated. Some call it Genocide. That little baby is too White. Understand.
Britain has opened up its welfare state to the world…
The amount of dependants who are allowed to come here is truly staggering the whole fabric of British society is buckling under the pressure of uncontrolled mass immigration…

The government’s ineptitude in dealing with immigration is going to be the downfall of this nation…
Headlines about Rwanda are and have always been a smokescreen for lawful immigration into the UK…
We’re going to tackle this going to stop this reduce this that and the other all Bullshit…“
Even if the Conservatives come up with some non-bonkers policies they will still be intensely disliked. Being entirely composed of charlatans, moral bankrupts and complete f***ing dweebs like Mark Francois they stand no bloody chance come election time.#Conservativeshttps://t.co/vw8V4BoREe
Goodwin forgets that, if said “populist” parties are not anti-Zionist in the widest sense, and social-national, they are and will be a waste of time and space.
FPTP voting system is our problem, millions vote to keep worse party out, greens have infiltrated both parties as they can’t achieve much as independents. FPTP must go, it’s turned parliament into one party state we can’t get out. Opposition full pay and expenses isn’t punishment
