Tony Martin (1944-2025)

I missed the reports of the recent death of farmer Tony Martin, imprisoned in 1999 for having shot some “travellers” (Irish tinkers) who had targeted his rundown farmhouse by night.

Incidentally, the Wikipedia entry about those events and the aftermath omits the “traveller” aspect entirely: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Martin_(farmer); so does the local news outlet Nottingham Post (the “traveller” criminals in the case having come from the Nottingham area): see https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/nottinghamshire-burglar-shot-farmer-tony-9930047.

Martin was eventually released after having spent 3 years in prison, his initial conviction for murder having been downgraded on appeal to manslaughter. There had been a huge public outcry supporting Martin. I myself recall having posted a supportive postcard to him from Turkey when he was still sitting in prison. 2001. I wonder whether he ever received it.

I was unaware in 1999 and 2001 that Martin had (probably in the 1970s) supported the National Front [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK)], and was related by marriage to Andrew Fountaine [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Fountaine, an interesting if slightly alarming character whom I once saw, and heard speak (at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in 1975, when I was aged 18-19).

After his release, Martin supported, so says Wikipedia, both UKIP and the group Traditional Britain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Independence_Party; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_Britain_Group.

Martin should never have been prosecuted or even questioned (except pro-forma).

Hero.

Jack Lopresti, former Italian ice-cream salesman and sometime TA (part-time) private soldier [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] and MP (2010-2024) is in fact notfighting” in Ukraine. He is sitting at a desk in Kiev.

Both Lopresti and his ex-wife, Andrea Jenkyns, lost their Commons seats in 2024. They were both members of Conservative Friends of Israel.

Andrea Jenkyns has abandoned the Conservative Party for Reform UK. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Jenkyns.

Lopresti seems rather unintelligent, and obviously has little idea of geopolitics, history, or anything else much. I expect he is being paid for his present role, and paid more than the peanuts pay, paid in local rubbish-money, that the Ukrainian soldiers get (when paid at all).

Incidentally, nearly 6 years ago, I penned an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns:

There are two (or three) main arguments against mass non-European immigration into the UK. One is both racial and cultural, meaning also societal, the other is economic. For me, the economic argument is not the primary one, but it is (obviously) hugely significant. The swamping of this country by non-whites is making us poorer and, until stopped and reversed, will continue to make us poorer as a country, as a population and, particularly as British individuals.

Carpetbagger Kemi should scuttle back either to the USA or to Nigeria, where she came from.

You still see stupid British scribblers, TV talking heads, MPs etc, spouting about how “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) is fighting for European culture, democracy, civil rights etc. In reality, the shambolic and corrupt Kiev regime is a brutal dictatorship.

The Jew Zelensky rules as the figurehead of a cabal of dictators. Elections should have been held a year or two ago and now never will be. Trade unions are banned. Dissidents are arrested already; a few have even been shot or otherwise “eliminated”. Recruitment to the armed forces is now largely by press-gang— people simply seized off the streets by militia goons.

At a protest against Trump’s executive orders targeting child mutilation procedures on minors, Actress Cynthia Nixon reveals that: -Her daughter is transgender -Her niece is transgender -Her best friend’s child is transgender -Her daughter’s best friend is transgender -Her life is filled with transgender people, “young and old, but especially young.” President Trump is saving American children from one of the most destructive social contagions in human history.

Damn. Political journalist John Rentoul beat me this week, the first time that has happened for months, maybe even years. He scored 7/10, but I scored one less, 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 3, 6, and 10.

There is a constant attempt in the msm to downplay immigration as a social and political issue, as if it is some kind of side-issue or non-issue. Far from it. It impacts every other social and political issue, from housing and water supply to policing, law and order, educational standards, transport, pay, State benefits (including pensions)— you name it.

Indeed, the System still tries to pretend that immigration is beneficial, both socially and economically, despite the enormous weight of evidence to the contrary. The level of deception and, on the part of the System drones themselves, self-deception, is almost incredible.

So we in the UK still have “compulsory blacks” in pretty much every TV drama, “soap”, TV ad, panel discussion etc. “Blacks with Everything”, to adapt the name of the well-known play by Arnold Wesker. I wrote about it some 6 years ago on the blog. That despite the fact that actual blacks (Africans, West Indians/Afro-Caribbean) make up “only” about 5% or 6% of the whole UK population.

The propaganda is not aimed, primarily, at persons of my age (68) or indeed those in their 50s, 40s, or even 30s, but at “the young” and, especially, at children whose critical faculties are relatively or completely undeveloped.

The aim of that sort of propaganda is to normalize both the multikulti society and, even more so, inter-racial relationships, resulting in mixed-race children and, ultimately, in an entirely mixed-race society (except at the top level), as provided for by the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan and, at least impliedly, by the Protocols of Zion:

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

A lot of fuss (whichever side you are on) over one runway at one major airport. Meanwhile, the fake “green” agenda has shut down much-needed power stations, damaged the automotive industry, interferes in various ways in the lives of tens of millions of British people, and for what? Really, for what?

In the words of Fleet Street in the past, “you read it here first!”. This blog predicted that Starmer and his cabal, once in government, would [pretend to] “solve” the “small boats” invasion by simply approving, whether in France or elsewhere, the asylum applications of 95% of the invaders. Likewise the problems of accommodating the invaders in the UK.

The migrant-invaders are, increasingly, being given accommodation across the country in council houses, other social housing, and B%B accommodation paid for by local councils (local people, in other words) and by taxpayers generally. They are, thus, less visible than when all concentrated in hotels. They simply become part of “the UK’s housing crisis” almost all of which is, in reality, an immigration crisis.

Few young Ukrainians will volunteer. The press-gangs will then try to force recruitment, as with older age groups.

The Kiev regime is now very obviously faltering. Unless Zelensky scuttles to the USA or Israel, he is doomed.

“Mark Lewis Lawyer” and James Wilson

Refers to Wilson’s successful libel action against Jews called Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased and, I think, only part-Jew) and Cantor, in which various Jews, including sacked part-time judge Simon Myerson of Leeds, gave evidence which the trial judge did not believe, and/or to which he gave no weight at all.

Lewis should be hauled before the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority and a Disciplinary Tribunal (again).

Very true. Apart from which, and despite the flaws adherent to all empires, the British Empire was great and, overall, or on the whole, something positive.

You only have to look at any TV quiz show, such as The Chase, Mastermind, or even University Challenge, to see that most English/British people have no real sense of their own history.

For many, it comes down to a few simple or cartoon views of a mere handful of periods such as Industrial Revolution, Victorian era, Henry VIII/Elizabeth I/Spanish Armada, maybe the English Civil War, and of course WW2 (largely, the Battle of Britain air war) with a few other individuals and events standing out as historical stalagmites, and usually thought of as isolated cameos, akin to the Swiss legend of Wilhelm Tell having to shoot an apple off the head of his son.

Robin Hood, William the Conqueror and the Battle of Hastings, Drake, maybe Waterloo, and Churchill (as indomitable hero leader, not as the warmonger and hopeless strategist who destroyed —thanks to US and Soviet alliances— not only the German Reich, but his own British Empire and those of all other European powers.

No wonder that so many silly people, if asked their views of the current migration-invasion, reply along the lines of “we have always had immigration— Romans, Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Huguenots...” etc, as if the invasion of this country by non-Europeans, in the millions, indeed the tens of millions, is effectively the same!

I have occasionally wondered what motivates idiots such as Socialist Worker Party demonstrators. Time after time (over the past 50+ years— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialist_Workers_Party_(UK)), the said idiots turn up in the cold rain, wave their placards, shout slogans or insults, and achieve exactly nothing. For half a century. According to Wikipedia, there are about 2,500 paid up members, but the average turnout seems to be about a dozen.

Still, to expect reason from the unreasonable is itself unreasonable.

The SWP was established, like its predecessor orgs, by a Jew called Gluckstein, who took on the protective camouflage of a British-sounding name— “Tony Cliff” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Cliff].

Quite a few MPs need to be put up against a [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]. As in all repressive societies, readers learn to read between the lines. We in the UK never had to do that in the past, not for the past 200 years, anyway.

Thus proving that about a third of the population are non-European and/or irredeemably stupid and/or outright enemies of the British people and a decent future for them.

If a third of the UK’s inhabitants were to disappear, the remaining two-thirds (if British/European) could have a decent life…

Brutal numbers for Kemi Badenoch in the polls tonight โ€ฆ Net approval: MINUS 15 Brave? MINUS 2 Decisive? MINUS 2 Competent? MINUS 2 Strong leader? MINUS 9 Gets things done? MINUS 10 Stands up for Britain? MINUS 7 Likeable? MINUS 10 Trustworthy? MINUS 13 Says what ppl think? MINUS 17 Looks like a PM? MINUS 22 In touch with ppl? MINUS 19 Shares my views? MINUS 19.”

Carpetbagger Kemi should scuttle back to the USA or Nigeria.

Acc. to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would translate into Labour 300 seats, Cons 119, Reform 113, LibDems 71 (Greens 4, SNP 12 etc). So a Labour minority government propped up by SNP/LibDem/PC votes.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

Still, with such a split, a point or two can make all the difference. One point less for Labour, one point more for Reform, and the picture looks very different: Lab 260, Reform 157, Cons 109, LibDems 71. The result would be a weaker Lab minority govt. even more reliant on LibDem (etc) support. Also, Reform rather than Cons as official Opposition.

Only 22% of Brits say they approve of Keir Starmer. Look at this chart. Opinium tonight.”

22%. About the same proportion of all eligible voters that voted Labour last year: in rough terms, 4 out of every 20 eligible to vote. (Cons 3 out of 20, Reform 2 out of every 20, LibDems 2 out of 20, Greens 1 out of 20; “non-voting”—8 out of every 20).

True enough, but the main attack on free speech in the UK comes from the Jewish or Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, and I never hear Matt Goodwin or Farage (etc) saying anything about that.

At what point does the encroaching slow-motion dictatorship programme become impossible to counter by merely “peaceful” means?

You cannot even take items to the local rubbish dump without booking a slot. Absurd.

Maria Zakharova ridiculed British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy’s claim that “the British-Ukrainian partnership goes back thousands of years.” ” The roots of this friendship go back to the foot of the Egyptian pyramids? Why so little? They even hunted brontosauruses together ,” Zakharova joked.

During a visit to Kiev, David Lemmy stated that “Kiev princesses were marrying British princes” a thousand years ago.”

Lammy personifies the old Russian proverb, “an ape in a silk suit is still an ape“…(incidentally, that proverb was not originally meant to reference blacks, because there were none in Russia until the 20thC and even today they are few; it was basically metaphorical).

Here is “diversity-hire”, thick-as-two-short-planks, Lammy making a fool of himself once again, this time on Celebrity Mastermind:

Ha ha! Evergreen…

Incidentally, Ukraine only became a nominally independent state in 1991, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Its entire previous history was as part of the Russian state or its predecessor, Rus, though parts of Western Ukraine were within the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries.

Lammy is a total embarrassment as Foreign Secretary, but Starmer cannot easily sack him, having appointed him. Why? Because he is black. Simply that.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-14364119/Woke-jobs-NHS-hospitals-123-000-year-despite-Ministers-vowing-crack-control-diversity-drives.html

The NHS has advertised almost a dozen ‘woke‘ jobs within the last few weeks, including one equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) role paying almost ยฃ123,000, MailOnline can reveal.

The recruitment drive comes days after Health Secretary Wes Streeting warned diversity and inclusion in the NHS has gone too far with some staff now promoting ‘anti-whiteness’ within the health service.

The Associate Dean with responsibility for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion role, advertised by NHS England, is based in the South West and comes with a salary of ยฃ122,470.

The salary is equivalent to the entry-level pay of up to three NHS doctors or four nurses. 

According to the job description, the successful candidate can work from home 60 per cent of the time and will be responsible for ensuring medical students from different backgrounds have equal opportunities.”

Nadra Almas fought a legal battle against the Home Office to remain in the UK, stating that she would face persecution if she was forced to return home on religious grounds.

British people find it hard to access peanuts-level State benefits, but a foreign migrant-invader, who entered this country on a fraudulent basis, is given ยฃ100,000! She should not even be here! You really could not make up what is happening in this country.

Incidentally, look at the readers’ comments on that Daily Mail report. It is only a thousand or more years of slow accretion of patience, and belief in a society under law, that is preventing a socio-political explosion in the UK (so far).

If you go into a shop in, say, Egypt, a small shop that in the UK (if owned by real British people) would probably have one or two people, maybe three at most, but probably one or two, working there, you will find that the owner has half a dozen people working there, probably related to him in some way. Open long hours, perhaps, and the people there doing little individually. Paid peanuts, of course. Likewise, offices.

I understand that India and other such poor countries are similar.

Non-crime “hate” incidents are, ipso facto, not crimes. If the police continue to be incapable of doing their proper job, and if they continue to behave like a blundering, hopeless, poundshop KGB, snooping on people’s opinions, tweets, blogs etc, they deserve to be, when the UK has a real government, dismissed and put to work as forced labour.

The present Attorney-General is one Hermer, a Jew who is or was closely tied-up with the Jewish “antifascist” cabal known as Searchlight: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Hermer,_Baron_Hermer#Early_life,_family_and_education; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Searchlight_(magazine).

On those figures, the House of Commons might look like this: Reform UK 256, Labour 217, LibDems 78, Conservatives 43, Greens 6 (SNP 19 etc).

That would mean either a weak minority Reform government, or an exceptionally-weak Labour minority government backed by LibDems, SNP and other minor parties.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

Arguably the most interesting aspect of the latest polling is the apparent continuing collapse of the Conservative Party (predicted, of course, on this blog). Not only 4th placed, after the LibDems in 3rd, but with little better than half as many MPs as the LibDems.

I read today that CCHQ may be unable to pay the rent on its office building. I would not be surprised to see quite a few Con Party MPs now jump to Reform in the hope of being accepted as candidates for the seats they currently occupy as “Conservatives”. I wonder how many will be deemed acceptable. If they delay too long crossing the line, they may not be accepted.

I was interested to read that article on the Conservative Home website. The comments were 95% or more pro-Reform and anti-Con Party.

Blimey. Simon Myerson KC chattinโ€™ about other barristers apologising and showing a lack of judgement. A judge decided Myerson engaged in โ€œdisgraceful abuseโ€ of me and Iโ€™m still waiting for Myersonโ€™s apology. Itโ€™s all covered in my next S-stack post out tomorrow. Link in bio.”

[James Wilson]

You will get no “apology” from Myerson. “They” always like to extract “apologies” from their enemies or opponents; they see that as victory (and humiliation for those “apologizing”).

Their instincts are, of course, not those of the European.

As Corbyn noted, years ago, “they” also usually lack a sense of irony, likewise the ability to see themselves.

Myerson was sacked as a p/t judge (“Recorder”) last year for his inability to stop savagely insulting others online. In short, he was found to lack the proper judgment required of those who aspire to sit on the Bench.

Itโ€™s not enough to be against mass immigration, you should be actively loving your country.

Double Twit Time

Saw two silly twits on Sky News earlier, being interviewed separately. The first was someone called General Shirreff (retired) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shirreff], who thinks that war with Russia is all but inevitable, that the UK should double or triple the amount it spends on armed services in all ways, and that it is essential for the UK to back up “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev).

I find it disturbing that an officer previously at such a high rank and with such heavy responsibilities until retirement should actually think that Britain should embroil itself even further in the brutal, shambolic, and corrupt Kiev-regime war, and try to confront Russia in Eastern Europe.

Come to that, the UK should also have steered clear of a number of other late-19thC and early 20thC conflicts: the Balkan war(s) of the 1990s, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Libyan uprising.

President Kennedy said, of General Curtis LeMay [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_LeMay], that, in a war requiring an all-out attack, you would want LeMay commanding the first wave of the bomber force, but that he was the last person who should decide whether there should be a war at all. Having heard General Shirreff’s attempt at geopolitical argument, I rather think that that is also my view of General Shirreff.

Any war with Russia would leave what is left of this country, and worth defending, in ruins. Irradiated ruins, over which those of us who survive will crawl in misery. Nein danke!

As for the other twit seen this evening, one Alex Chalk [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Chalk].

The said Chalk, who lost his Commons seat in 2024, was briefly Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice under Sunak. My thoughts about him, having now heard him (I was only peripherally aware of his existence, previously) relate more to his ideas about how to fund the justice system than to his actual decisions when in high office. He wants even more cuts to the “welfare” (social security) budget, and for that money to be directed to the courts, legal professions, prisons etc. A rehash of 2010-2015 “austerity” nonsense, in short, but with money given to the legal and justice system (and defence). He seemed a smug bastard, rather full of himself. Again, nein danke!

There comes a point when many people wonder whether we still have much worth “defending”. In fact, I think that many have already reached such a conclusion, which is why recruitment to the armed forces has become a thorny issue. I saw an ad for the Army today, showing an entirely black platoon in the field. Has the Army given up trying to recruit real British people?

Jew-Zionists often make false and malicious complaints of “racial harassment”. Several have done the same to me over the years, the latest (of which I am aware, at least) having been made by Stephen Silverman, self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement at the tiny but (((well-funded))) fake charity, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which complaint to police about me amounted to an attempt to pervert the course of justice. I have no idea why the police let Silverman and the “CAA” get away with stunts like that. He/Gideon Falter/”CAA” have been doing it for 10+ years, not only against me but also against many others (on various legal bases)— David Icke, Al-Jazeera TV, and many many other people and organizations

That faked complaint against me, on the entirely false basis of “racial harassment”, was back in 2021. The false complaint failed, as did all the others, but was then quite wrongfully twisted into a complaint against me on a different legal basis, which eventually led to my free speech trial of 2023. See below:

I hope that P.C. Plod and the “Clown” Prosecution Service are now, even if belatedly, aware of the malicious and troublemaking character of Silverman and his “CAA” pressure group.

Diary Blog, 2 February 2025, including a few thoughts about Trump, tariffs, isolationism, and autarky

Afternoon music

[painting by Volegov]

A few thoughts about Trump, tariffs etc

Trump is promulgating tariffs on imports from a range of countries and blocs presently major trading partners with the USA. Canada and the EU, to name but two. China, too.

As many are pointing out, tariffs reduce trade, because they make imported goods (and/or services) more expensive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff.

That view, however, though the majority one, is not universally held by economists, at least in specific historical cases: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff#Tariffs_and_the_Great_Depression.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff#Arguments_against_tariffs.

Looked at from a different point of view, there are reasons why Trump’s tariff barriers might be positive for the USA, mainly because they might allow American industry, in decline for half a century, to revive.

American tariffs go back a long way— to 1789, in fact: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff#Political_analysis.

The tariff has been used as a political tool to establish an independent nation; for example, the United States Tariff Act of 1789, signed specifically on July 4, was called the “Second Declaration of Independence” by newspapers because it was intended to be the economic means to achieve the political goal of a sovereign and independent United States.[93]

[Wikipedia].

In the short-term, Trump’s tariff’s may well cause domestic prices (within the USA) to inflate. In the longer-term, however, those tariffs may also create American jobs, and also increase America’s long-term security.

The USA is one of the few economies capable of being an autarky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autarky]. Others would be Russia and mainland Europe (the EU, presently).

There is little doubt, though, that in those countries that produce items exported to the USA, the Trump tariffs will cause economic damage, possibly severe damage. That in turn will cause political fallout.

The USA is a huge and vibrant economy. If turned inward, that may be able to create the prosperity and job security so lacking at present in many American communities. The USA should have been isolationist in the 1940s and afterwards, as it had been in the 1930s. It seems to me that that would be a good policy now for the USA. Economic isolationism allied to political isolationism.

The USA should build up purely defensive military and naval power, but avoid doing what it has done, particularly, since 1941, i.e. interfere all over the world. If that is done, American security will thereby be increased.

I agree. It may not be the whole picture, but it is a large part of it.

That second tweet by “@InFearOfKeir” is also very true.

That really is alarming. I have commented previously on the blog about Chinese and other androids and also other types of robot etc.

That is certainly my view.

What a pity— I missed that.

Contemporary Britain— a country where the least able have been put into positions of high responsibility which they are totally unable to properly fulfil.

I can’t get my head around this… Labour promised to clean up politicsโ€”then took loads of dodgy freebies, handed jobs to their mates, and approved contracts for major donors. They said their top priority was growthโ€”now theyโ€™re tanking the economy. They vowed not to raise taxesโ€”then hit us with ยฃ40bn in tax hikes, and there’s more to come. They said they would freeze energy billsโ€”now energy bills are rising. They said they’d stop the boatsโ€”then scrapped our only deterrent and introduced more pull factors. They said theyโ€™d look after farmersโ€”then tax them out of existence. They claimed theyโ€™d keep us safe and be tough on crimeโ€”then released dangerous criminals from our prisons instead of deporting foreign offenders. They claimed there was a ยฃ22bn black hole and ‘difficult decisions’ were neededโ€”then increased spending by ยฃ70bn, spent billions on foreign aid, and billions more on illegal immigrants. They said they would respect Brexitโ€”now they want to align us closer to the EU. They said, ‘honesty is the cornerstone of the Labour Party’โ€”then lied about Southport and everything else on this list… and more. I could go on… This Labour gov’t is the most incompetent, heartless, anti-British, hypocritical, and dishonest in history. We need a general election. NOW!

The reason I disagree with that (leaving aside the extra point that I never use the old and outdated “right/left” stuff) is because the original tweet fixates on the fact that FPTP voting “punishes division“. What is important is what is happening beyond the crumbling walls of the Westminster monkeyhouse.

At the 2024 General Election, over 40% of the eligible voters did not vote, many no doubt out of disgust with the whole system and the System parties.

Out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 did not vote. Only 4 out of every 20 voted for fake Labour, and probably half of those did so because a “Conservative” candidate was the only apparent alternative.

Labour’s incompetent and freeloading ministers, and its Labour Friends of Israel leading cabal, may think they are sitting pretty on their very large Commons majority but, outside the walls of Parliament itself today, 100,000 protesters were demanding the release of “Tommy Robinson”.

Robinson is “controlled opposition”, of course. So be it.

The rise of Reform UK (despite Farage’s unreliable history etc) shows anger at the way Britain is going. For Labour, and Westminster Bubble drones, to look only at numbers of seats and at the way FPTP voting distorts public opinion, is very short-sighted.

At present, it seems that, yes, Labour may be the largest party in the Commons after the next general election, but even if Reform UK fails to dislodge Labour from that position, it may well come second and thus become the Opposition. That would in itself destroy the basic structure that has been in place for over a century.

The likelihood at present (with the Con Party still embedded in some parts of the country, as are the LibDems, and both likely to get 50-100 seats next time) is a hung Parliament and thus a weak Labour minority government, though if Reform does really well, the outcome could be a fairly weak Reform government, backed up by the surviving Con MPs.

Outside the supposedly-hallowed walls of the Palace of Westminster, though, the English/British people are murmuring. The Tommy Robinson protest, the summer 2024 protests, the now-constant stream of trials of social-national people who have said or done the (politically) “wrong” things (and then been entrapped by System police, MI5, the “Clown” Prosecution Service, and the System judges) speak to underlying discontent.

Reform UK, Tommy Robinson etc, are merely part of the journey, not the destination.

There may come a time, not so far down the line, when what happens in and around Parliament becomes only the outcome of what happens outside Parliament.

As to Goodwin’s comment above, I agree, but I also tend to agree (sort-of) with Lenin: “A revolution without firing squads is not worth much.”

The Queen would never have allowed this to happen“…What universe does that tweeter, “@Lotus 17”, live in? The late Queen died only 3 years ago…Does that tweeter really think that the decline of the UK has only happened since 2022? Try (at least) 1989.

Woodrow Wyatt, in his diaries [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodrow_Wyatt#The_Journals], expressed the view that, inter alia, the Royal Family did not care whether Britain descended into poverty and general decline, because they, the “royals” would still be sitting pretty atop of it all, and insulated from the badness with which almost everyone else would be contending.

When I read Wyatt’s diaries, 25+ years ago, I thought that his point about the “royals” was arguable but maybe too harsh. Now I agree completely. Look at Charles, desperately trying —and failing— to fill his late mother’s boots. Look at tame thick princeling William, no doubt at least, or somewhat, well-meaning, so be it. Look at even thicker princeling, Harry, “the Harry formerly known as Prince”, not forgetting Meghan Mulatta. All of them signed up to the crazed “multikulti society”, all willing to pay lip-service to “holocaust” propaganda etc.

If the already-rigged “democratic” process becomes even less honest, even less responsive to the needs of the British people, then the whole Parliamentary system will have to be bypassed. Action directe

It may be, though, that the Reform UK upsurge will lead, before too long, maybe by 2030, and against the will of Reform’s leaders, to a further movement of the “Overton Window”…to a huge revolution of social nationalism.

Historical note

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

Charles Edward Coughlin (/หˆkษ’ษกlษชn/ KOG-lin; October 25, 1891 โ€“ October 27, 1979), commonly known as Father Coughlin, was a Canadianโ€“American Catholic priest based in the United States near Detroit. He was the founding priest of the National Shrine of the Little Flower. Dubbed “The Radio Priestโ€Š” and considered a leading demagogue,[1] he was one of the first political leaders to use radio to reach a mass audience. During the 1930s, when the U.S. population was about 120 million, an estimated 30 million listeners tuned in to his weekly broadcasts.[2]

Coughlin was born in Ontario to working-class Irish Catholic parents. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1916, and in 1923 he was assigned to the National Shrine of the Little Flower in Royal Oak, Michigan. Coughlin began broadcasting his sermons during a time of increasing anti-Catholic sentiment across the globe. As his broadcasts became more political, he became increasingly popular.[3]

Initially, Coughlin was a vocal supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal; he later fell out with Roosevelt, accusing him of being too friendly to bankers. In 1934, he established a political organization called the National Union for Social Justice. Its platform called for monetary reforms, nationalization of major industries and railroads, and protection of labour rights. The membership ran into the millions but was not well organized locally.[4]

After making attacks on Jewish bankers, Coughlin began to use his radio program Golden Hour to broadcast antisemitic commentary. In the late 1930s, he supported some of the policies of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. The broadcasts have been described as “a variation of the Fascist agenda applied to American culture”.[5] His chief topics were political and economic rather than religious, using the slogan “Social Justice”.

After the outbreak of World War II in Europe in 1939, the National Association of Broadcasters forced the cancellation of Golden Hour. In 1942, the Archdiocese of Detroit forced Coughlin to close his newspaper Social Justice and forbade its distribution by mail. Coughlin vanished from the public arena, working as a parish pastor until retiring in 1966. He died in 1979 at age 88.[6][7][8]

[Wikipedia]

It seems that Father Coughlin’s views were a more politicized, and more American (though he was born and brought up in Ontario), equivalent of those espoused by those of the great G.K. Chesterton, Hilaire Belloc, and others of a Roman Catholic or an Anglo-Catholic ideological background prior to the Second World War.

Leaving aside the rights and wrongs, “IQ” can only take you so far. My own IQ was once measured (40 years ago) at 156, easily within the top 1% of the population, yet I have not taken over leadership of the world and, at age 68, time is running out, at least in my present incarnation.

Looking at most politicians, commentators, business leaders etc in our society, intellectual mediocrity is more likely to lead to “success” than a stellar IQ.

Interestingly, it is claimed that Marilyn Monroe had an IQ equivalent to that of Einstein, which must make one question the basis for IQ’s societal prominence. We are only at the early stages of understanding what makes the brain, the human personality, and society, work.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jan/31/tired-mood-changed-ukrainian-army-desertion-crisis

When Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine three years ago, Viktor* was ready to die for his country. He volunteered to defend Kyiv as enemy tanks appeared and joined Ukraineโ€™s armed forces. In the spring of 2023 he was fighting in the village of Tonenke, near the eastern city of Avdiivka. โ€œWhen I arrived I was super-motivated. If necessary I would give my life,โ€ he recalled.

Gradually, however, he became disillusioned. The battle was furious. โ€œThe Russians would smash our positions to the ground,โ€ he said. Senior Ukrainian commanders gave unrealistic orders. Then, while he was defending a ruined building, a panel fell on his shoulder. After receiving injections to reduce the pain, he was told to return to the front. โ€œI realised Iโ€™m nobody. Just a number,โ€ he said.

In May that same year, Viktor left his position to seek further medical treatment. He did not come back. His commander marked him down as awol. Viktor is one of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers who have abandoned their units. The exact figure is a military secret, but officials concede the number is large.

The issue of desertion has made headlines in Ukraine. Last week the government launched an investigation into the 155th Mechanised Brigade. Fifty-six soldiers disappeared while training in France. Hundreds of others are said to be missing.

After three years of war, Ukraine is desperately short of soldiers, especially infantry. This has made it easier for Russiaโ€™s army to advance in the east. There are structural issues too. New brigades have been built from scratch. They performed poorly.”

[Guardian]

As noted on this blog for the past couple of years.

Russia is winning, slowly. The Kiev regime may collapse later this year. There may be a general advance of Russian forces later in 2025.

UK demographics

White British births have fallen to a record low! New figures have revealed that White British births now make-up just 55.6 per cent of all live births in England and Wales. But at the same time, the British population is skyrocketing, with the latest reports published in the press predicting that our population will surpass 72.5 million by 2032!

The meteoric rise in population is largely being driven by mass immigration. Both legal and illegal migration into Britain are now at an all-time high and the last up-to-date figures we released show that net migration has reached over 900,000 per year. This is shocking in itself, as that is more people than live in the city of Manchester!

Electoral Calculus suggests that that, at a general election, might produce a Commons with 212 Reform UK seats, 196 Labour, 106 Conservative, 72 LibDem, and 7 Green (etc). So a Reform minority government.

Reform UK is part of the journey, not the final destination, of course. A useful bridge, if you like.

200+ Reform UK MPs would change the whole atmosphere at Westminster. For example, they could demand proportional representation and then, if the System parties block that, appeal over their heads to the British people via a second general election that might see Con and Lab even further diminished.

I feel, listening to what many people I hear in the course of everyday activity, that the British people have pretty much had enough of migration invasion, attacks on free speech, and enough of the still-encroaching police-state dystopia under the present Labour Friends of Israel cabal (and its “Conservative” predecessors).

Another big factor is the “nothing works properly any more” feeling, which is based on fact— things don’t work properly any more (a situation which, with the increasingly racially-mixed population, can only worsen).

Chilling Pentagon documents may reveal why the ‘Deep State’ has always feared the release of the John F. Kennedy assassination files.

A 12-page report, signed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) in 1962, details a secret plan to commit heinous acts against American citizens to justify war with Cuba in the 1960s.

Code-named Operation Northwoods, this top-secret plot proposed enacting terrorism on US cities in a what is known as a ‘false flag operation’, before blaming Cuba in order to fool the Americans into supporting war efforts to oust communist Fidel Castro.

JFK rejected Operation Northwoods when it came across his desk and was shot.

A conspiracy theory surrounding JFK’s assassination claims he was killed by Israel which allegedly controls the US ‘Deep State.’ 

Now, President Donald Trump has promised to release all classified documents relating to JFK’s assassination, which could potentially lead to more shocking revelations about the US government’s activities during the 1960s.

Ifโ€”

By Rudyard Kipling

(โ€˜Brother Square-Toesโ€™โ€”Rewards and Fairies)

“If you can keep your head when all about you   

    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

    But make allowance for their doubting too;   

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

    Or being lied about, donโ€™t deal in lies,

Or being hated, donโ€™t give way to hating,

    And yet donโ€™t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dreamโ€”and not make dreams your master;   

    If you can thinkโ€”and not make thoughts your aim;   

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

    And treat those two impostors just the same;   

If you can bear to hear the truth youโ€™ve spoken

    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

    And stoop and build โ€™em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

    And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

    To serve your turn long after they are gone,   

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

    Except the Will which says to them: โ€˜Hold on!โ€™

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   

    Or walk with Kingsโ€”nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

    If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

    With sixty secondsโ€™ worth of distance run,   

Yours is the Earth and everything thatโ€™s in it,   

    Andโ€”which is moreโ€”youโ€™ll be a Man, my son!”

In the phrase of Katie Hopkins, “Bonkers Batshit Britain“…

According to Electoral Calculus, that would mean about 303 Labour seats, 138 Reform UK, 91 Con, 71 LibDem. So probably a Lab minority government with LibDem support, but possibly a Labour minority govt. with support from SNP and other minor parties. Labour would have to get a dozen or two dozen votes from somewhere.

Reform UK would be the official Opposition either way, on those figures.

Worth reading.

Written, I now see, by the well-known Kevin Alfred Strom [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Alfred_Strom], and I now also see from Wikipedia that he was a colleague of a Dr. Fields [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Reed_Fields], a short and rather fat man (if memory serves; I may be wrong on that) when I heard him speak, and to whom I was introduced, at one of the regular evening meetings of the League of St. George, which were held at Kensington Library (London) in the mid-1970s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_Saint_George. At the time, I was a member of the League.

I recall Dr. Fields as having been dressed in a white or cream suit (and possibly hat as well, I do not remember; I think so), and with a large flag on a stick sticking out of his lapel pocket. I cannot now quite remember whether the flag was the Stars and Stripes or the Confederate flag.

Fields was introduced to the audience as the representative of something called the National States’ Rights Party [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_States%27_Rights_Party].

Remarkably, Fields is still around, according to Wikipedia, and aged 92; he looked at least in late middle-age when I met him in the mid-1970s, but must in fact have been only about 45.

Trump on the line?

How can France imprison Musk when he is not even in France? Macron and his EU cabal must be getting desperate.

I wrote about Macron’s strange background years ago:

Southport will consume everyone today but 12 yo Leo, murdered 2 days ago in cold blood returning from school – only a short walk home – adored by all and described by his Head as funny & sweet will fall back. I took my son to school and back without fail at that age, I could not let go of him.

While understandable anxiety from a mother, and in a London which is now somewhere between a jungle and a zoo (I believe that she lives in West Kensington), 12-year-old boys surely do not need their mothers to escort them everywhere.

I was 12 in September 1968. My family was then living in Sydney, N.S.W. I would occasionally travel into the city centre (now, but not then, called the “CBD” or Central Business District), taking the ferry across Sydney Harbour from Cremorne Point to Circular Quay, a 3-mile trip. I even did it when aged only 11. I would then wander around Sydney’s central area, going wherever the mood took me.

I can remember going into a bookshop (I bought a book on Arabic, for no good reason), the offices of the Swiss Bank Corporation, and the very lively Stock Exchange (mining stocks were booming at the time, and the part of the trading floor dealing with them was frenetic, seen by me though the glass window of the public gallery).

[1966 photo of the ferry in Mosman Bay near Cremorne Point. My family lived in Mosman in 1967, then moved about a quarter-mile to the next suburb, Cremorne]
Cremorne Point wharf before the First World War, a view which was still somewhat recognizable (at least the general situation and the ferry pontoon) when I used it a few times in 1967-69. You could see little sharks swimming in the water, and the pontoon swayed as the ferry came in]
[in some more recent year; in 1967, the pontoon wharf was not covered or glassed-in]

Reverting to my main point, when I was only just 13 (by about 2 weeks), and on my family’s return trip by sea to the UK (we had arrived by air), my parents let me walk around alone on the various stops the liner Oriana made en voyage, including Acapulco (at that time not the large and crime-ridden city it now is, admittedly) and Miami (which involved my taking, entirely alone, both a local bus in Port Everglades and then a Greyhound bus to central Miami, and the same in reverse; the ship was scheduled to depart that same evening!).

I have to admit that, if I had a boy of 12-13, I would probably not give him quite that amount of latitude. I think that my main point is still valid. At some point, children (especially boys) have to be given the chance to look after themselves by wandering around etc.

Stray reminiscence

The above recollections sparked another reminiscence of my few years of Australian childhood (aged 10-13).

My parents always had a range of friends, and in Sydney one of those (met via my Anglo-Australian uncle, a business executive) was a barrister called Johnny Szabo, of Hungarian origin. I believe that he and his brother had taken the opportunity to leave socialist Hungary in or following the Uprising of 1956. Before that, Szabo had fought as a tank commander in the Second World War, alongside German forces.

As I understand, the Szabo brothers at first operated a repair garage or body shop in Sydney but, by the mid-1960s, Johnny Szabo was a prominent barrister who, I think I was told, took silk (was appointed QC). I do not really remember him except by name and story, though. I vaguely recall having met him once or twice. I imagine that he must have been born around 1920, so would now be long gone.

It does show how Australia was a land of opportunity for many after 1945. Wolf Blass, the German winemaker of note, would be another example. He arrived in South Australia almost penniless in 1961. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_Blass. https://www.wolfblass.com/en-gb/about/our-history.html.

Let us say, for the sake of argument, that the aforesaid untermensch had not killed anyone. Would there, even then, be any reason for the British people to tolerate his presence, that of his family and clan or, for that matter, others, being in the UK, or in any part of Europe? I say not.

The only reasonable agreement will be for the Kiev regime to withdraw its capital to Lvov, though with authority over all Ukrainian territory west of the Dnieper except for the cities of Kiev and Odessa, which should be declared free cities, or having condominium status. Russia to rule all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper and also a corridor of land along the Black Sea coast, both east and west of Odessa.

If that is implemented, and with Kiev-regime losses at or beyond the present level, it could spell demographic catastrophe for Ukraine.

That will turn South Africa, at long last, into the usual African-ruled “basket case”, of course. The dwindling white minority has kept South Africa at least semi-civilized since that idiot Mandela took over in the early 1990s, but whites have been emigrating in very large numbers since then. Eventually, perhaps not long in the future, the chaos and misrule, in some cases amounting to savagery, seen in most of black Africa will engulf South Africa. Once European/white rule ended, that was always going to be the endgame.
