Morning thought

Saw a few minutes of some TV propaganda piece featuring Starmer-stein and Rachel Reeves. She is so much of a robot that she puts previous political robots, such as “the Maybot” (Theresa May) into the shade. Rachel Reeves strikes me as a human tick-box, most of the time. There seems to be nothing in between a robotic impression and a meltdown impression, as seen in the Commons yesterday.

Interesting news. Incidentally, that airport looks better than I had supposed. Photographed nicely, anyway.

Goodwin seems to have been “on a journey”, ideologically. Perhaps that journey has not yet arrived at its final destination.

Travelogue— Batumi (Adzharia)

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

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

As on previous occasions, a slightly silly title and subtitle, but the video itself still fairly interesting.

Many years ago, I wanted to visit Sukhumi, a small resort in Abkhazia, north of Adzharia , which resort was developed under 19thC Tsarist rule, but unfortunately there was considerable civil war damage after the collapse of the Soviet Union; at any rate, I never did go there; neither have I ever been to Batumi, an autonomous part of Georgia.

According to Electoral Calculus, that translates into a Commons with 363 Reform UK MPs, Labour 129, LibDems 69, SNP 29, and Cons 25 (Greens 7, Plaid Cymru 5 etc).

Cons once again in notional 5th place. Near-terminal.

I imagine that, in that situation, Reform could offer most of the remaining Con MPs a home, were they willing to defect. On the other hand, why would Reform even bother, already having a fairly large majority on those polling figures?

It is now probably only a matter of time before the Russian side can achieve a significant breakthrough, and then roll over the whole of Ukraine east of the Dnieper, leaving open the questions of Kiev and Odessa (which should be open cities, probably), and allowing the Ukrainians to maintain a non-belligerent rump state centred on, presumably, Lvov.

Several people were injured after a man wielding an axe attacked passengers on a busy train in Germany today.

The suspect, who has not been identified, was said to have lashed out at travellers on board the ICE 91 train to Vienna this afternoon at around 1:55pm local time. 

The man, believed to be Syrian according to German newspaper Bild’s sources, was alleged to have boarded with an axe and a hammer, before one brazen passenger disarmed him of one of the weapons and fought back.”

Incidentally, look at that latest example of the UK’s degraded “newspaper” “journalism”: “brazen” used wrongly, in my opinion. The scribbler in question: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/profile-263/james-clark-reynolds.html

Diary Blog, 2 May 2025, with result of, and analysis around, the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

Morning music

[Sukhumi]

Full results from the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runcorn_and_Helsby_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s

Reform UK 38.72%, Labour 38.7%, Conservatives 7.17%, Greens 7.09%. The other 11 candidates lost their deposits, the LibDem coming 5th of the 15 candidates, and with a mere 2.88%.

What is so good about the result is that, had Starmer-stein managed to hold on to Runcorn and Helsby, even with one vote, he would have been able to weasel about “hard choices“, “making the tough decisions” etc. Now, the public can be seen to have replied with a massive “NO!” to all such Blair/Brown/Cameron (etc) dissembling.

So Reform (not my party, not my kind of party, not really my ideology, but halfway there) now has 5 MPs (6, really, Rupert Lowe having been elected under the Reform banner). Under a fairer electoral system, Reform in 2024 would have had 92 MPs anyway, not 5.

5-6 MPs may seem a small bloc, but for most of the 1950s and 1960s, the old Liberal Party had the same number, before struggling into double figures for the first time since 1945, and then recovering under their new name, the Liberal Democrats: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)#Electoral_performance.

Now the dam has burst. The main System parties have lost all credibility. Today Reform, but tomorrow who knows?

I love it when System political “grifters” and careerists lose out like that.

Bitter herbs for Starmer-stein this breakfast-time.

As blogged for many months, this is not so much a Labour government as a Labour Friends of Israel government, or misgovernment.

[“Remember Runcorn!“]

Farage may be a snake-oil salesman but “God moves in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform“. Once Farage and Reform have hacked the way through the jungle, real social nationalism will be able to break through. Maybe in 2033, the centenary of 1933. Just a thought…

Andrea Jenkyns

Andrea Jenkyns, former Greggs employee (etc) has been, once again, saved from stacking shelves at Lidl by electoral success. She is now the Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire, a title and place-name reminiscent of the inventions of P.G. Wodehouse.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm25qjj4284o

https://www.gbnews.com/politics/local-elections-results-andrea-jenkyns-lincolnshire

I wrote an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns in 2019 (since then, with updates):

The full result: Reform (Andrea Jenkyns) 42%; Conservatives 26%; Labour 12%; Independent 8%; Greens 6%; LibDems 5%.

More thoughts about the by-election, local elections etc

The discomfiture of System drones, especially Labour ones, is both very evident and hilarious to see. Last night, I saw a section of the Sky News election coverage. One of the “experts” on their little panel was the TV talking head, now elevated to the degraded Lords as a “baroness”, Ayesha Hazarika. She obviously hates it that Reform is becoming electorally popular.

That Ayesha Hazarika person is emblematic of the times in which we live in the UK. Of Indian origin, she was a lowly civil service press officer before becoming a stand-up “comedian” (comedienne), a markedly unsuccessful one.

Despite that, her connections in the Labour Party ensured that she not only got “advisory” political work, but also slots on TV discussion panels and, eventually, the “peerage” (nominated by Starmer-stein).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayesha_Hazarika,_Baroness_Hazarika

Such peerages pay out £361 a day taxfree (when the House is sitting, i.e. 102 days per annum, plus travel costs and, in many cases, the costs of hotels or rent of flats etc in London. The £361 daily allowance is paid for up to 102 days per year, so as much as around £37,000 in a year. No fortune, but it is taxfree (so worth the same as a salary of maybe £50,000 or so), and all a “baroness” or “lord” has to do to get it is to sign in every day claimed for. It can take as little as 30 minutes, but why not stay and have an excellent and absurdly-subsidized lunch too?

A friend of mine often used to lunch with a peer of the realm (one of the real and unpaid old hereditary ones, not a life peer) in the 1980s and 1990s. She told me about the kind of luxury food and wine they had, and how low were the prices of that.

What a broken system. A low-level civil servant office bod and unsuccessful comic entertainer can get to know a few MPs, get on Newsnight or Sky News a bit, then become a member of the upper chamber of our legislature. It is absolutely ridiculous.

Turning from the Hazarika creature to more general matters, it is clear that the Westminster Bubblers simply do not understand what is driving the Reform phenomenon. They are too well-padded to feel the pain of so many people in this country.

Reform is underwhelming, really, yet look at what is happening! The voters are clutching at the Reform straw because not only are the main System parties useless, but they appear intent on stamping on British people, on their preferred way of life, on their history and on their future.

Labour especially is in the hands of secretive and hostile cabals. Starmer-stein is the obvious example: a freemason married to a Jewish woman, and who, at Easter, did not (as far as I have seen) invite any English children to Downing Street but did invite a group of Jewish children celebrating one of their religious festivals which occurred at about the same time.

Starmer-stein and his cabal have cut the small incomes of pensioners, the sick, the old, the unemployed, but have thrown money at “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) and at Israel (e.g. by paying for RAF surveillance flights over Gaza and other Arab territory, then giving the intelligence product to Israel for free).

I was driving in one of the most affluent parts of southern England this morning, and the road could have been in some broken-down part of the world; potholed, and poorly surfaced generally. Why? Why? I do not recall roads in England being as bad as this in the past, prior to, say, 2010. certainly not in the 1980s. “Austerity”? Poor priorities?

People are getting very fed up, indeed angry, at the way things are going. Reform UK is just the first step. People will go much further if the country continues to be so broken, and even more invaded by migrant-invaders (“legal” and “illegal”).

At present, there is no indication that the direction of travel of the UK is anywhere but straight down.

That list is only the start.

The German “security and intelligence” bods should take a look at what happened to many of the Hungarian communist secret police in 1956, during the Hungarian Uprising. It was brutal…

Actually, the UK’s MI5 and police snoopers should also read up on that. History sometimes bites people like that on the ****.

Votes and elections will probably not be allowed to change the System (across Europe, certainly the EU and the UK). However, the discontent will find other outlets in the end. God help the System politicians and msm talking heads then…

Raus!

Reform already shows worrying signs of infiltration and occupation.

Using Electoral Calculus, that might mean a Commons with about 376 Reform MPs (an absolute majority of 50, and a yet larger working majority), 113 Labour MPs, 71 LibDems (proving yet again that they are the “cockroach” survivors despite having really nothing at all to offer), 45 SNP, 12 Cons, and 5 Greens.

That would be the end for, as Disraeli put it, “the great Conservative Party, that destroys everything“.

I do not think that it would be much different even were Carpetbagger Kemi to be sent back to Nigeria (along with, hopefully, the 300,000 others who live here).

Labour is also looking at a well-deserved wipeout.

I notice that “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer-stein is now tweeting about “national security” and “defence”, at the same time as literally thousands of immigrants, tens of thousands, pour in every single day, mostly “legally”. As for the illegal, “small boat”, invaders, about a thousand are landing every day.

Starmer-stein wants to impose “woke” tyranny along with (((the usual))) concealed dictatorship in this country. He has to be opposed by any necessary means.

Scamdemic/panicdemic loony news

Three young boys who were allegedly locked inside their home for four years by their Covid-obsessed parents began hyperventilating and threw themselves onto the lawn to stroke the grass after being rescued by police, it has emerged.

Police found the boys, between the ages of eight and ten, in a house in the northern city of Oviedo, Spain on Wednesday. The children had apparently been kept in the residence since 2021.

It is understood the family closed off to the world during the Covid-19 pandemic, forbidding the children from going outside, and making them sleep in caged beds.”

[Daily Mail]

Merely a rather extreme version of the general looniness that swept across much of Europe and elsewhere in 2020-2022 (and which was imposed by sinister self-styled “elite” political monsters such as, to name just one, Jacinda Arden in New Zealand).

I still see the odd facemask loony even today, usually some old woman in a supermarket who has probably been wearing the same bit of dirty cloth for 4 or 5 years now.

[“DRAX – The “renewable” wood-burning power station is the biggest single source of carbon emissions in the UK. Has made record £1.1billion profit because we gave them nearly £1 BILLION in subsidies 6.5 million tonnes of wood pellets burned each year & mainly come from Drax’s 17 pellet plants in the US and Canada. It is also a massive supporter of LABOUR and increased ‘Green policies’ because it means more subsidies. Shh … it’s only 300 million trees.“]

A disgrace.

Russia would supply the UK with oil and gas, possibly even at cost, were the UK government(s) to drop the stupid anti-Russia hate campaign and appurtenant policies, and leave NATO.

My view? Be “tough on ((you know who))) and tough on the causes...”

It is good that more and more people are awakening, becoming aware of the poisonous menace at the heart of 20th/21stC Western society. The US-based “ADL” (Anti-Defamation League”) is a major part of that.

A major part of that is the corrupt backstairs influence being exercized over suborned or naive police by Jew-Zionist organizations such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”.

It would also help if the police were competent enough to do their proper job. Most of the time, these days, they seem to be a waste of space.

Don’t forget the (many) others of that sort, “Supertanskiii” and Julia Grace Patterson among them.

Incidentally, I looked at Patreon for the first time in weeks today; “Jack Monroe” now has only (only?) 360 utter mugs each sending her between £3.50 and £44 a month; still thousands of pounds a month even so, in all probability. A month ago, there were 383 such mugs, and about 850 a year or so ago.

Also incidentally, saw this online about fake NHS “champion” and facemask fanatic (she was selling them…), Julia Grace Patterson:

treatcounsel

1 yr. ago

In a nutshell, please anyone correct points where I’m mistaken

  • a co-founding member of the political mess, the fb group which was born out of the junior doctor contract forum. She fell out with the other co founders and they left to form DAUK
  • she founded a choir to sing anti nhs cuts songs to really stick it to the man
  • the political mess briefly was a good platform for discussion between doctors but quickly any dissenting voices got blocked in their hundreds and this coined her infamous nickname of Idi Admin
  • on TPM she posts huge soliloquies about saving the nhs but they’re always based around a personal JGP anecdote and accompanied with a selfie of her
  • completed core psych training but has not worked as a doctor since then – yet still claims to speak for us.
  • caused a backlash moaning about how hard her life is with two kids and having to live between her two houses in two countries on just her husband‘s consultant salary
  • founded every doctor. Has claimed several successes which were not the work of ED. I genuinely cannot think of a single thing they have achieved. Edit – as someone above pointed out, they churn out more petitions than change.org itself but it all leads nowhere.
  • started shilling masks and other tat in the pandemic – hence why people refer to her as a grifter
  • very shady around ED accounts and her salary
  • anyone who disagrees with her is either a troll or a sexist and is blocked before any engagement can take place. edit BUT If you tuchis-lingus her enough she might deign to follow you on Twitter. And acts like this is a great honour.
  • finally, does shit like trying to start a new trade union when the profession is in the most precarious situation of our time(imo).

[from Tattle website]

To my mind, one of the worst things about Julia Grace Patterson is that she forced her little son to wear a facemask at all times, even in an empty, rainswept and windy park. Close to child abuse, in my opinion.

Britain has huge problems around honesty and trust, both with organizations and with public figures.

Police, MPs, companies, BBC, the msm generally, even scientists and doctors (since the “Covid” “panicdemic” and “scamdemic”).

The “Captain Tom” Foundation nonsense and fraud (by the late officer’s daughter and son-in-law) has highlighted the question yet again.

Online “grifters” such as Julia Grace Patterson, “Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii” and others make it all even worse.

Import all kinds of riff-raff from all over the world and you import, with the riff-raff, their behaviour(s). Political behaviour, social and domestic behaviour, corporate behaviour.

The UK police are now almost useless at their proper job, yet (at the behest of the Jew-Zionist lobby) have time to bother —and bore— online socio-political commentators such as me.

Ukrainian volunteers are increasingly fleeing from the front abroad.

Many Ukrainians, who at the beginning of the conflict went to the front as volunteers, deserted as soon as they faced the reality, and many of them managed to escape from the country using the corruption networks that were created in this country, writes the “Figaro” newspaper. ” I used to consider myself a superhero, but when you see military operations in reality, you realize that you have nothing to do there,” Ukrainian conscript Ivan Ishchenko, who deserted last year at the cost of a huge bribe and shame, admitted to French journalists.

Nevertheless, according to the president of the border service of Ukraine Andriy Demchenko, since the beginning of the conflict, 13,600 people who tried to leave the country illegally have been detained. In addition, around 6,100 were caught with false documents.”

So the slide to at least a general regional war continues…

The Kiev regime is getting desperate.

If Trump can get the Republican nomination, he can win the election next year, and if he does that, Zelensky’s ricebowl will be taken away, and all territory east of the Dnieper will thereafter fall to Russia within a short space of time.
