Thoughts about the latest Labour Party immigration scam

Happened to see a brief interview on TV with the Pakistani woman presently masquerading as Home Secretary. Someone who scraped a Bar pupillage for a year, then worked as a “diversity-hire” “gopher” at a firm of solicitors for a couple of years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabana_Mahmood.

Leaving aside her unimpressive background, I was angry and yet unsurprised at what was obviously meant to be her, and Labour’s, “big statement” on “illegal” migrants (only about 5% of all migrants or migrant-invaders). Apparently, they will now be unable to apply for UK citizenship for 20 years.

So what does this mean?

#Will they be removed from the UK? NO.

#Will they still be given food, shelter, services, pocket money? YES.

#Will they be kept under conditions of detention? NO.

#Will they be free to wander about, committing sexual or other crimes? YES.

#Will this new policy have any effect at all on the continuing migration invasion? NO.

In fact, this new “policy” (public relations scam) accepts, by implication, that the invaders will mostly still be here in 20 years’ time. They may start to breed, too, possibly with the more stupid English/British women. Rassenschande.

Very true.

The fact is that literally hundreds of millions of persons (mostly non-white) might have a superficially “well-founded” “right” to apply for asylum in the UK, according to the overall “human rights” legal farrago. Why? Because large parts of the world are in a state of disorder, one of the very negative results of the Second World War and the consequent collapse of the European empires in Africa, Asia etc.

What would that do to our society, were up to 800 million to come here? Obviously, collapse our society. Completely.

What is happening at present, and has been happening (with increasing speed and volume) over the past decades, is a —so far— more limited yet still huge version of the above.

At present, around a million a year (both asylum-seekers and other migrants). Already, UK society is showing signs of approaching collapse. Housing. Roads. Railways. Education. The social security system. Politics and elections. Crime and disorder. Even water supply.

Incidentally, the 800 million figure is only those who might, under present laws and rules, might successfully apply to stay in the UK; it does not even include those millions of others who (as many do) might make completely fake claims of requiring asylum.

The slow advance of Russian forces continues.

God. What a silly little twerp…

It always makes me laugh when I see the msm lauding SIS and indeed MI5. Yes, they may recruit spies somewhere or other, and may be able to prevent the Russian SVR or GRU (or others) from “stealing the plans from the War Office safe” (to use an old phrase), but such organizations always fail to see the wood for the trees.

Look at the KGB and other Cold War bodies, such as the pervasive East German/DDR “Stasi” and “Aufklarung“. At least as efficient as MI5 and SIS in their narrow fields, yet unable to stop seismic changes in their societies. Eventually, those societies collapsed in terms of their whole political and economic, and to some degree social, organization.

Britain is presently subjected to a mass invasion by inferior hordes who, however, are gradually overwhelming, by weight of numbers, almost everything in the UK.

Society is now really showing signs of upcoming collapse, yet SIS still persists in trying to battle against Russia, China etc, not to mention the Muslim countries; at a time when the Muslim population of the UK itself has increased from a once-tiny minority to, already, about 8% of the UK population, and possibly as high as 10% of the population of England alone.

The same applies to MI5. It may be able to stop individual Islamists from mounting paramilitary operations in the UK. It may also be able to arrest, or have arrested, the (in both senses) odd and so-called “far-right” individuals playing at “terrorism”(often very young men, or even schoolboys, who usually have no serious “terrorist” intent anyway, meaning that most of them would never actually do anything much), but MI5 and the “counter-terror” police etc cannot stop the movement of the “Overton window”, the slow but eventually overwhelming “radicalization” of (all blocs within) the general public.

The reason is obvious. Such a fragmented Syria would be unable to menace Israel; neither would it have much defence against Israeli attacks.

If Israel were to fight Turkey, my money would be on Turkey, even bearing in mind the Israel nuclear capability. Some Turkish missiles can already reach Tel Aviv, in theory, and Turkey already has some 12,000 missiles altogether, though most would, at present, be unable to reach major targets in Israel.

Turkey allows transit of oil to Israel, via pipeline across eastern Turkey and then shipment from Turkish ports to Israeli ports such as Haifa. That tap would be turned off at once in any armed conflict.

Were Israel to use nuclear weapons against Turkey, that would make the pariah-state even more isolated internationally. Attacks would then come from other states (Iran, Yemen). The Palestinian Arabs might be able to rise up. Israeli society would not be able to survive.

Israel is doomed.

The suffering of the Gazan Arabs has been incredible. Israel is mainly responsible.

[“Ukraine is heading for a strategic defeat”: Bild’s military observer Repke on the stalemate faced by the Ukrainian armed forces “The situation can no longer be concealed by PR tricks of the Ukrainian General Staff, nor by embellishment or ignorance of the government in Kyiv: Ukraine is heading for a strategic defeat by the invading Russian army. Ukrainian journalists and activists have already recognized the seriousness of the situation. But neither the Ukrainian army nor its Western partners are drawing the necessary conclusions from their own mistakes in conducting the war against Russia. More than 2,000 tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and armored vehicles delivered to Ukraine are practically useless in the context of Russia’s growing dominance in optical and other types of drones. It seems the Ukrainian government only partially understands the serious war of destruction being waged against its country. Exactly where the allegedly mobilized 17,000 people per month are deployed remains a mystery both to observers and to the soldiers on the front line. Desertion and temporary avoidance of service — which often leaves entire brigades existing only on paper — remain practically unpunished. This leads not only to misjudgments of their own strength and resilience but also to huge gaps on the front, ultimately triggering new Russian breakthroughs. As a result, the area controlled by Ukraine shrank by an additional 586 square kilometers in October — and a new annual record of territorial losses will likely be reached in November. Thus, a monthly loss of land comparable in size to the state of Berlin has become a real possibility. Russian offensives on the regions of the large cities of Dnipro and Zaporizhzhia are only a matter of months, at most a year or two. And one thing remains unchanged: unless the government in Kyiv and its Western partners immediately implement a strategic turnaround, Russia will win this war step by step.“]

As noted on the blog for the past 3 years.

Interesting to see that. I must ask the staff, next time I take a blood test, what blood type I am. Unlike the old Waffen-SS, I do not have it tattooed on my body; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_blood_group_tattoo.

Exactly. Ban both halal and kosher meat, and cruel slaughter of animals for that. What? Muslims and Jews would find life in the UK, or Europe, difficult? So much the better! There are other parts of the world.

Defund the BBC, and sack liars such as Marianna Spring.

“Democracy” in the UK is now becoming a kind of low-level war among various factional groups. The old idea of a kind of “debate”, which then leads to a fairly homogenous electorate making up its mind, is as good as dead, because the electorate is becoming ever-more tribal. Race. Culture. Religion. Ideologies. Age (etc).

As always, “they” seek control…

The recent Israeli attack on Iran has no doubt convinced any waverers in Iran that the only meaningful defence against Israeli aggression is to match the Israeli Jews in nuclear capability. Israel has created its own nemesis, as in a Greek tragedy.

One could also imagine Iran employing fleets of drones to exhaust the Israeli air defence shield, then using hundreds, even —in a future year— thousands of powerful conventional-warhead missiles, to overwhelm the remaining Israeli defences and to level the Dimona nuclear site, the Ben-Gurion airport, and Tel Aviv itself, without even having to use nuclear weapons.

Of course, Iran is a long way from Israel (at least 1,200 miles border to border), far beyond the flying distance of most drones at present, though some of the most advanced ones being used in the Ukraine war can reach about 600 miles.

Time will tell, but I think that Israel is doomed.

Not so sure about that. The protests may be at present mostly “peaceful” but the pressure on government comes from the fear that they may well become not-“peaceful”.

In any case, even if all the hotels are closed, the migrant-invaders will not be eliminated but will simply be hidden in the multikulti trash “communities” which now scar much of Britain. The taxpayers will pay out for either social housing or expensive private housing for the invaders.

Most if not all of those cities are already ghastly; God knows what they will be like in 5, 10, 20 years’ time.

[“Liberal commentators like Nelson and Finkelstein are guilty of what philosophers call the moralistic fallacy – the belief that something *cannot* be true simply because it would be morally undesirable if it were. Let’s take their objections one by one: (1) No one is claiming that every illegal migrant is a sex offender. The debate concerns specific cohorts of young men from particular countries and the *higher* statistical risks they bring, not blanket slurs on every individual. Pretending otherwise is a cheap straw man. (2) The phrase “whipping up protest mobs” is dishonest and demagogic. Protest is a democratic right, and the anti-migrant hotel demonstrators are overwhelmingly decent, peaceful, and diverse in background. If anything, these protests are moral, given that successive governments have refused to repeal the Human Rights Act or reopen detention centres… the very measures needed to deliver on their own manifesto promises. (3) No one is “thrilled” by the prospect of ethnic violence. Quite the opposite. The idea fills many of us – myself included, and academics like David Betz – with dread. It is not something we want to happen. But intellectual honesty demands that we take the risk seriously rather than banish it to the realm of taboo. (4) The claim that white Britons face harsher treatment in the courts is a subject that needs proper academic inquiry. But the grooming gangs scandal already provide enough evidence to suggest a form of two-tier justice exists. Columnists like Finkelstein just can’t adapt to the demographic and political realities staring them in the face. They’re stuck in a New Labour/Cameron-era timewarp, clinging to scripts the public has long since stopped buying. They remind me of that tragicomic band Crème Brulee from The League of Gentlemen – especially Les McQueen, forever trapped in nostalgia, boring anyone within earshot with tales of his glory days.”]

We know what may have to happen in the end, but are “not allowed” to discuss it publicly, or to post analysis or comments about it.

In any case, the “rubber boats” invasion is only about 5% of the overall migration problem, which consists of cross-Channel rubber-boat invaders, “students”, “fiancees”, “family members”, fake “tourists”, “key workers” (mostly low-pay employees) and, last but not least, births (to immigrant mothers, to mothers whose parents were immigrants, and to white British women who have been impregnated by non-whites).

Eventually, the future will have to be faced; mass immigration and migration invasion is not the whole of it, though an important part of it. It is also cultural, social, and economic.

I agree. The judge who allowed himself to be “nod-and-wink” told to pass a truly Draconian sentence, as Starmer-stein and Yvette Cooper wanted, thus showed himself unfit to sit in the seat of judgment.

On the blog yesterday, I highlighted the case of two South London thugs convicted a day or two ago of (in one incident) serious theft, grievous or actual (I forget) bodily harm using fists, feet, and a baseball bat, and serious criminal damage (wrecking a car), the victims being a man in his 50s and a pregnant woman.

Incredibly, the judge in that London case gave the defendants (one having serious previous convictions) a suspended sentence, plus a bit of unpaid picking up of litter etc, and rather modest compensation (probably will never be paid). Why? Mainly because (the judge said) the prisons are full to bursting; also because the defendants might be able to access some kind of anger-management bs.

Incidentally, Lucy Connolly may now be “free”, and able to return to her unwell husband and two small children, but will still have to undergo the boredom and silliness of being under probation supervision bs for another 22 months!

One more untermensch to be captured and put on the one-way train…

After Reform— the deluge (real social nationalism).

Incidentally, that poll would translate into a Commons with no less than 434 Reform MPs, 68 Labour, 51 LibDems, 42 SNP and 25 Cons (etc). As near to an electoral revolution as anything.

That refers to the GI Bill brought into law by F.D. Roosevelt. It gives those who have served in the U.S. armed forces free university education, free medical services etc.

In its original form, it did not extend those benefits to those who served in the armed forces of other countries. Seems that Israel has had its puppets in Congress make yet another pro-Jewish-lobby “exception”.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.I._Bill

Russian forces continue to advance steadily, if slowly. The Kiev-regime forces are now incapable of mounting anything beyond a static “hedgehog” defence line, and are incapable of mounting any serious counter-attack, let alone a counter-offensive.

Well, who could have foreseen that?…

Well, I had better not post anything…inflammatory…lest I end up being unjustly imprisoned as Lucy Connolly was…

Anyway, as often noted on the blog, “rubber boat” migration invasion and the consequent “asylum hotel” aspect is only about 5% of the overall problem (even less if you take into account births).

The silver lining to the present atrocities being committed by Israeli Jews is that even fewer people will now want to listen to the endless anti-German (and anti-European) Jew-Zionist propaganda re. the 1920s, 1930s and early/mid 1940s, which has as its real agenda the bolstering of Jewish and Zionist power in the present-day.

I disagree that 16-y-o people should vote. I should prefer a voting age of 28.

As to Starmer-stein’s desperate ploy to increase the Labour vote in 2028 or 2029, I doubt that it will have the huge effect for which he and his cronies may be hoping. The 16-17 year-olds may, most of them, prefer Labour to other parties (at present), but most will not vote, and many may not vote for Labour, especially after the spending cuts etc.

Perhaps that lady would like to move over to drinking Vichy water. It’s better for you than Coca-Cola, and has an interesting history. Vichy Celestins is the source I prefer.

Trump is right, though, about Coca-Cola having been better when they used cane sugar.

Imagine if that were to happen in reverse. Whole streets in North and North-West London would be devastated.

Despite the overwhelming military power of the Israeli forces, their “reduction of the Gaza ghetto” has still not been completed.

I do. He is also as thick as two short planks and incredibly ignorant.

…and then briefly, and ludicrously, Prime Minister.

[“A textbook example proving our so-called leaders haven’t got a damn clue. Asked about the UK supplying F-35 parts to Israel, UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy spits out utter bullshit about how stopping the supply would affect conflicts like Ukraine,where, news flash, the F-35 isn’t even in use….These are the very same people who want to fight Russia. Clueless and dangerous.“]

Lammy, a “leader“, though?… Hardy ha ha. Just an egregious example of a “diversity hire”…

That refers to Esau: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mess_of_pottage; https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Genesis-25-29/.

I agree with that. They have an obligation, even now.

Talking point

I noted years ago on the blog that Starmer-stein seemed to be politically clueless.

The “Ukrainian Army” is a collection of sacrificial cannon-fodder, commanded (ineptly) by a bunch of thugs posing as military officers, right up to the rank of general. It is losing (by death, serious injury, and capture) about 1,000 a day, which is probably 2,000 a day if you take into account desertions. It is, therefore, hardly surprising that there are no volunteers any more, and that the regime has to use press-gangs to kidnap people off the street.

This could end with the USA on one side, and virtually every other country in the world on the other side.

The 20th Century was “the American Century” but we are now in a successor-situation.

If Moscow or Petersburg are hit by serious missile attacks, Kiev might find itself flattened by nuclear attack, and if the Germans continue to assist the Kiev regime to that extent, Germany makes itself a target.

Has that ship not already sailed? Interesting, though. Were Turkey to use its massive army against Israel, that might be the end of Israel, notwithstanding Israel’s nuclear weapons.

It is only just over a century since Ottoman Turkey ruled what are now called Lebanon, Israel, Syria, and many more current regional states beside.

Lenin said “a revolution without firing squads is not worth much.” [Discuss].

[“NEW POST. This is how things fall apart. When you ask the hardworking British majority to pay billions in welfare for foreigners who do not work When you ask them to pay billions more for a policy of mass uncontrolled immigration they never voted for When you force them to do all this while even refusing to fix their broken borders and keep them safe And when you also cover-up the state importing thousands more people into their country This is how the social contract, the fragile relationship between the people and the state, starts to break down.”]

[“In the last 24 hours it has become crystal clear to everybody in the UK that the reason the state took winter fuel payments from British pensioners, raided British family farms, and piled taxes on British businesses was so it could spend billions secretly importing dangerous Afghans into the country while funding welfare for people who are neither British nor even working. It a total violation of the British people’s sense of fairness and fair play. It is outrageous.“]

The MPs and ministers of the System parties are enemies of the people.

The Kiev regime deliberately targets and tries to terrorize civilians in Russia.

Conditions of service, and the overall s**t-state of the country in many respects mean that few want to volunteer, yet the woodentopped generals and retired senior officers are always talking in the newspapers or on TV about “preparing for war” and about conscription. I think that they may find themselves in that situation where “what would happen if there were a war, and no-one came?” (to the recruitment centres or to the war) (come to think of it, are there any “recruitment centres” anyway these days?).

Late talking point

History must always be open to analysis, debate, and revision. The mediaeval-style “holocaust” “denial” laws of quite a few countries (mostly in the EU), introduced at the demand of the international Jewish/Zionist lobby, make a mockery of both history and intellectual freedom, and are a modern form of the “heresy” laws of 600 years ago .

Reminiscences: temps perdu, and thoughts about mortality

When one is well over 60, as I now am (68; b. 1956), thoughts may naturally turn to mortality, life and death, and questions larger than the everyday concerns of life. That may be so when one notices that many people one has known in life are now defunct.

Some of the people I have known, or have merely met briefly or peripherally in the past, are still alive; many, however, are not. Some of those who are no longer alive have died from various natural causes (and are too numerous to list), others expired from unnatural causes (such as a Nigerian princess I knew, shot dead in Lagos in the late 1990s) or from causes or reasons unknown (such as the ex-husband of a lady I knew in the 1980s, which ex-husband apparently drowned in the Thames at London). A few, friends of friends rather than people I knew well, sadly died via suicide many years ago.

These thoughts came again to mind yesterday when I noticed information online to the effect that a former American colleague, a major-league American lawyer called Tim Scrantom, died some time ago, in 2021, apparently of a brain tumour. He was diagnosed in April 2021, and died 6 months later.

[Tim Scrantom, 1956-2025]

Tim Scrantom was a couple of months younger than me, a fact which sharpens my reminiscence.

I met Scrantom after a headhunter in New York suggested to him and his two main colleagues, in 2001, that I might suit his niche law firm (based in Charleston, South Carolina). I was telephoned in Turkey, where I was then resident, and we arranged to meet in London at one of my usual haunts, the Churchill Bar at the Hotel Russell in Russell Square.

I drove back to England via Greece, Bulgaria, Romania (the latter two then not EU states, and very ramshackle), Hungary (excellent country), Austria, Germany (calling in at Berchtesgaden), Luxembourg, and Belgium.

The upshot was that Scrantom and I became colleagues, he based mostly at Charleston (the office was at East Bay Street, in the conservation zone of the city), I mostly in London, though we both visited various offshore jurisdictions, once or twice in tandem, as when we went to Liechtenstein one day (well, I did; Scrantom had left his passport at the Mayfair Hotel, and only discovered that fact when we met at Heathrow, prior to flying to Zurich…).

Scrantom was a genial host. He invited my wife and me to dinner in Charleston in August or early September 2001 and, on a later solo visit, I visited his home on Sullivan’s Island, by Charleston, where he lived with his then wife (I believe they divorced later) and young daughter.

Scrantom, though a graduate from American law schools, an attorney in several states, and a professor of law as well, was also a barrister of Gray’s Inn in London. I was a barrister of Lincoln’s Inn, though many years later (2016) wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred at the instigation of a pack of malicious and politically-motivated Jew-Zionists.

Scrantom, incidentally, was a modest fellow, very much a “Southern gentleman”, born in Georgia and from a wealthy background. I liked him. I never knew (until yesterday) about some of his earlier adventures, such as sailing around the Bahamas on his yacht, exploring the Himalayas, or visiting edgy places in Cambodia and elsewhere in South-East Asia, though he did tell me that he knew several of the people portrayed in the famous book and film Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_in_the_Garden_of_Good_and_Evil_(film)], the events of which occurred in Savannah, Georgia, where Scrantom’s family members were largely based.

In September 2001, I was with Scrantom in a taxi in the Strand, London, when his wife called to say that New York was under attack. We interrupted our journey (to the Berkeley Square area of Mayfair) to get out at a Dixons store to look at the TV screens.

I well remember him later fuming that Iraq “must have” been behind the attack on the World Trade Center (that was the neo-con and American msm line at the time, of course) and that “Israel has the right idea” (i.e. bomb the hell out…). Well, he was wrong, of course, and we disagreed about that. Like most Americans, and despite his intelligence and education, he was influenced by the pro-Israel propaganda so pervasive in the msm in the USA (though his main colleague, Ron, a hard-driving former USAF officer, was more alive to the menace of Jew-Zionism, and he was, as one might expect, also pro-USA to the hilt).

Scrantom, even when I knew him, was a multimillionaire, and later become a major player in the field of “litigation insurance”, once called “champerty” and historically not lawful in most jurisdictions (including England): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champerty_and_maintenance; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champerty_and_maintenance#England_and_Wales. Now, it is considered more acceptable.

I do not much like the concept (and Jew-Zionists in England use “litigation insurance” to pursue pro-Israel “lawfare”), so maybe it is just as well that our professional connection was mainly severed in 2002, when I decided to return to the ordinary practising Bar in England. I then moved to a large country house in Cornwall, and was based professionally at Exeter.

As already mentioned, I liked Tim (though not his then wife, to be frank; I only met her once), though I should say that he and his two main colleagues had no idea at all about how to run a law firm.

Life is short, something few if any really understand when in their twenties or thirties. We all have to try to accomplish something, not in a careerist sense, but for the future of the Earth, while in any particular incarnation.

That idiot, a (?) 30-something wannabee or occasional scribbler, tweeted something about me quite a while ago, I think in 2023 or 2024. He seems to be very pro-Jew-Zionist and pro-Israel, and his msm scribblings (it seems as part of teams, not sole bylines) were 6-11 years ago. A few more recent scribblings have been for online outlets (of which few have ever heard). https://muckrack.com/colin-cortbus/articles.

Apparently, that Cortbus person was once a UKIP activist (when a student, about 12-14 years ago).

I notice that that individual has only about 2,500 Twitter/X followers. When a pack of Jews had me expelled from Twitter in 2018, I had 3,000 followers (and that had been artificially lowered); by now I would have had tens of thousands of Twitter followers. Ah well…so much for “free speech” in this country…

Incidentally, I was unaware about that event in Zagreb. Looks as though parts of Europe are waking up.

…but look at that dishonest little Pakistani, Sajid Javid. Wrong once again. Remember his denial of the link between the migration invasion of tens of millions into the UK, and housing shortages?

Make that nearer to 10-15M, though…(plus births).

Starmer-stein is a total idiot. No idea about how to run the UK. Clueless. I predicted it, about 3-4 years ago, on the blog.

Scotland is even worse than England. Some of the idiots up there even claim to welcome being invaded by backward hordes!

The Labour Party in Scotland is actually headed by a Pakistani; so was (how ludicrous can you get?) the Scottish “National” Party, until recently.

As for that rapist, he will be out in 5-6 months. Shocking. The woman victim must be devastated and feel totally unprotected and unavenged.

Economic sanctions rarely work. When I was in Rhodesia in 1977, the roads outside the capital, Salisbury (now Harare) were empty, but that was not because of sanctions (fuel rationing only lasted 1965-1971). New cars were often seen in the city, though none were of British manufacture; French, I think Spanish, or other. Sanctions had limited effect— things such as books, Scotch whisky etc. Nothing really major. Tobacco, oranges, chrome etc were still exported (often under false flags).

Compare Putin to pathetic and dishonest Starmer-stein, or that truly ridiculous “diversity hire”, Lammy.

Not so much “wild geese” as Muscovy ducks…(only joking).

Unsurprising. Why should the peoples of Central and Western Europe (and USA) risk nuclear war for the sake of Zelensky’s brutal, shambolic, and very corrupt cabal? Most Ukrainian men are themselves trying to avoid serving in the Kiev-regime forces.

[“Israeli publication Haaretz reported that the US military used 93 THAAD interceptors in 11 days to defend Israel, revising previous cost estimates from $800 million to about $1.2 billion. With an annual production rate of about 36-48 THAAD interceptors, the US used up nearly two years’ worth of the missiles during the war.“]

Horrible. I hope they suffer for committing such crimes against the natural world. Barbarians.

Strange to think that, when I drove to the end of the almost-empty Karpas Peninsula in Northern Cyprus in early 2000, I was only 60 miles from Latakia in Syria. 60 miles, but a different world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karpas_Peninsula.

[“Few people noticed why exactly Israel launched a war against Iran on June 13. Here are three hidden reasons: 1. Just days earlier, the country was rocked by its largest pedophile scandal in history—one involving several high-ranking politicians. 2. Before the war, Iran hacked three terabytes of files from Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, which is known for collecting compromising information on global politicians. 3. Israeli PM Netanyahu risked losing power due to the unpopular proposal to draft ultra-Orthodox Jews into the Israeli military“]

I wonder what there is in that about Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Prince Andrew, Dershowitz, Clinton, Trump etc.

If MOSSAD or AMAN had that stuff, does the SVR now also have it, or some of it? About Trump, for example?

“The Consolation of Philosophy”?

Allison Pearson is a remarkably stupid woman.

I presume that Lewis is hiding out in Israel. He has or had a flat in Eilat, a fact that he concealed from the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal when he was found guilty on several charges in 2018. Indeed, his Counsel told the Tribunal that Lewis should have his fine greatly reduced because Lewis’s only assets were his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 a week.

Ecce the supposed “top defamation lawyer”!

Mark Lewis is little better than a confidence trickster.

Incidentally, Lewis was an abusive husband when married briefly (one year) to the Z-list “celebrity” and, briefly, Sky News newsreader, Caroline Feraday (amusingly, best-known for having been sacked by text message by BBC local radio about 15 years ago).

Not that I care at all about Lewis’s abusive behaviour to his then wife, who now lives in a “nowheresville” in the outer regions of Los Angeles (see my blog posts).

The Feraday woman joined with Lewis in attacking me viciously on Twitter (about my opposition to the Jewish fake WW2 “reparations” scam); in fact she initiated the attacks, with which Lewis then joined in. Until then (many years ago, about 2012 or so), I had never heard of the bastard, or her.

Mark Lewis was (maybe still is) a “patron” of that evil and squalid organization, the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, working with its main characters, such as Gideon Falter (a proven liar and, arguably, perjurer) and the Jew-Zionist Israel fanatic, posing as “Head of Investigations and Enforcement”, whom we can call “Slitherman”.

An example below of Lewis’s abusive social media activity, which (after several years) got him into trouble (though not via me— unlike the Jew-Zionist troublemakers, I do not waste time making endless complaints to police etc):

(in fact, in 2018, it was revealed that Lewis constantly abused people on Twitter etc, even a young Jewish boy; Lewis blamed his medications for his abusive behaviour…).

Ecce Allison Pearson’s solicitor (apparently)…

My own Twitter account, as explained, was deleted by Twitter itself in 2018 at the instigation of effectively the same pack of Jews, while Caroline Feraday deleted her original Twitter account a year or two ago, mainly because it was too embarrassing for her in various ways. She has another Twitter/X account now (with only 115 “followers”, despite she herself following 166 Twitter/X accounts).

Caroline Feraday’s now-deleted Twitter account had, at one time, tens of thousands of “followers”, all fake, all bought by her and by “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, who himself bought nearly 80,000 in an attempt to seem important, popular etc. Legal business news outlets even commented, cautiously, about the dishonest fakery of Lewis and his then wife.

Caroline Feraday now works for local public radio station KCLU in Ventura County, California, a subsidized radio station (National Public Radio network) with (putting it jokingly) about half a dozen listeners.

A few years ago, Caroline Feraday was publicly begging on GoFundMe, in an attempt to raise a mere USD $5,000. Sic transit gloria mundi…(and “celebrity”)…

From last month; I missed that one.

Cor, ‘ee’s well ‘ard!” (when arresting a woman of 83 doing basically nothing; the police are, shall we say, “not so hard” when confronting, if they ever do, predators and scavengers, such as those usually found living in caravans…).

Pathetic.

Ha. Soon “we shall all be (called) terrorists”…

I have seen the odd thing over the years from Rod Liddle with which I have agreed; quite a lot with which I disagreed. Also, my impression (I have never met him) is that he is rather an unpleasant person.

I could suggest something, but would not want some Jew-Zionist troublemaker making yet another contrived complaint to the police “service” about me.

The Israeli Jews are so brave, when firing at unarmed and defenceless civilians…

Re. Labour’s recent supposed “stunning victory” in the recent Hamilton by-election (Scottish Parliament): when you look at the figures, Labour won but with only 31.6% of the vote. The SNP vote fell markedly (unsurprisingly) to 29.4%, and Reform UK, which had not previously put up a candidate in the constituency, came in a close third, with 26.1%; all three main candidates were within a band of 1,400 votes.

The Conservative Party got only 6%, a huge fall from its previous vote, and the six other candidates (including the LibDem) lost their deposits.

This was a pretty good performance by Reform. They may well succeed next time. Until now, Scotland has been a barren field for broadly British nationalist parties, so the result is an interesting straw in the wind.

That Jew is an Israeli government minister. Openly says what most of his co-conspirators do not— that Israeli policy is genocidal, i.e. either to wipe out the Palestinian Arab population in Gaza, or to “resettle” them in concentration camps. Wait a minute…where have I heard something similar to that before?…about 90 years ago, in Europe…but back then, much of the population affected was able to leave, and go to Palestine, the UK, the USA, Australia, South Africa etc, and in many cases with considerable stolen or otherwise “acquired” monies and gold etc.

Ellwood is absolutely idiotic in terms of his preferred field— geopolitics. If anyone were to listen to him, we should be fighting Russia, China, and much of the Arab/Muslim world, simultaneously.

There probably are very stupid people who support Labour, and who think that Starmer-Labour is the same party once headed by Attlee, Harold Wilson etc. Not really. What now exists is a kind of “System Party” with several heads, one of which is “Labour”. Listen to Starmer. He sounds much more like a Conservative Party prime minister than anything approaching what, in the past, sounded like a Labour one.

Interesting name. “Metreveli” (“v” not “w”) is a Georgian surname. Wonder what is her background. “Florence” (her middle name) is, I think (subject to correction), a rather old-fashioned English name. My own maternal grandmother was Florence Eva [+ surname].

Seems that the new SIS Chief at one time anyway lived in Pimlico (quite convenient for the HQs of both MI5 and MI6/SIS).

47 years old (48 in July), and read Anthropology at Pembroke College, Cambridge. That must have been in the late 1990s.

At first, it seemed as though the Israelis were going to have a depressingly easy time in this conflict. Now, though, an outlier thought comes to mind…could this be the beginning of the end for Israel?

Oil prices will probably continue to rise, placing Russia in a good position economically and thus militarily. As for the Kiev regime, “blackbird, bye bye“…

England awake too!

For once, I agree with Piers Morgan. I saw a few minutes of that interview. “The Harry formerly known as Prince” is just a ridiculous weasel. Many hold him in contempt, but few if any want to kill him or even assault him. In other words, he is in no significant peril should he wish to visit the UK, with or without Meghan Mulatta and/or their offspring.

The fact is that, without the accident or incident of his birth, Harry would be totally insignificant and would live in utter obscurity. He has nothing of interest to say, nothing at all.

As a matter of fact, he and the Mulatta are said to have hundreds of millions of dollars, so if he wants to employ a bodyguard (or a whole team) when in the UK, he and the Mulatta have the means to do so.

I noticed, for the first time, how very close together are Harry’s eyes; looks like some kind of genetic defect. Very strange. There is evidently something not quite right about Harry, mentally, but I have no view as to whether that has been caused, or triggered, by his marriage to, and apparent subservience to, the Mulatta. Perhaps he was always like that under the surface. The few times I saw him on TV, when he was a young officer or ex-officer, he always looked to be in good spirits, superficially.

His military service seems to have consisted of about 8 years in uniform as a junior officer, including a total of about 6 months deployed in Afghanistan, flying helicopters. He saw action a few times, apparently (that is to say, killing opponents on the ground from his attack helicopter…).

Thinking idly about it, it seems to me that Harry chose the right title for his book of memoirs— Spare. He now has no real function or role in the world. His situation reminds me of that of Vronsky in Anna Karenina, when Vronsky and Anna are in self-chosen exile in Italy, after having left Russia. Homesickness. Frustration. Relationship problems.

Incidentally, it infuriates me (though certainly not enough to want to kill or injure him, or even to —much— criticize him!) that Harry whines constantly about his life, his expenses, his little upsets, and the death of his mother (when he was 12), which last must have been very upsetting but which, after all, took place in 1997, 28 years ago! The man is now 40 years of age!

What I mean is that so many people in this world, indeed in the UK, are poor, suffering in various ways, wishing for a better life and/or a better society, and all this featherbedded nonentity can think about is his own comfort, security etc, and his unmerited wealth.

Never a word about the struggles and problems facing the British people.

In fact, in some ways I have more time for the Mulatta. At least she knows what real life is, having had to struggle, make a living for herself etc. Harry probably finds it a challenge to brush his own teeth.

I just have no time for him.

Well, it has taken several years, but at last my prediction of terminal decline for the main System parties is coming to pass, and evidently so.

Late thoughts on the recent by-election and local elections

One thing that struck me, looking at the pro-Labour or anti-Reform Twitterati, is how readily they describe, contemptuously, those who recently voted Reform as being “thick as mince“, “thick gammon racists” (the irony…), or “thick c**ts“, while often posting cartoons or AI-produced pictures of supposed Reform voters (shown as tattooed skinheads drinking cheap canned beer while draped in Union Jack flags, or wearing football-club clothing).

You would imagine that the opposite would be seen as more true, i.e. that repeatedly voting for the same System parties that have been driving the UK into the ground for decades (and especially since about 1989) might be seen as unintelligent or, in a word, stupid.

In fact, it is clear —as said often over the years on the blog— that many self-describing “Left” partisans have no real ideology left, only the wish to censor and attack even mildly nationalist people.

All those pseudo-socialists have left is that wish to “deplatform” others. They have no real ideology or principle left, and their preferred System party, Labour, is quite plainly just one face of a Janus-faced “uniparty”. Where is the real or significant difference between Starmer-stein’s Labour Friends of Israel “Labour” and the “Conservative” Friends of Israel governments of 2010-2024?

Such people seem to think that the voters in places such as Runcorn should be grateful to have a Labour-label government, whatever its policies, and whatever its actions and defects.

People did not, most of them, vote actively for Reform (in terms of ideology or policy), they voted Reform as a way to hit back at both Lab and Con, and as a way of trying to change a political and economic system that is no longer working for them. No social-national party of the slightest significance exists at present; Reform is the next-best option.

I see that, beyond Starmer-stein Labour propaganda trickery, nothing will change in terms of stopping the migration invasion, stopping the migrant-invaders taking over both social and private housing (paid for by the State out of taxation of the British voters); and nothing will improve in any significant way (if at all) for the British people economically.

Reform will rise up from here and, if it then founders, or fails, real social nationalism will then take up the baton. Raise the banners!

Arabic might be considered the richest language in words based on its complexity. According to The National – the United Arab Emirates’ leading English-speaking news outlet – on average, a single written word in Arabic has three meanings, seven pronunciations and 12 interpretations.

Not merely a philological curiosity; it means that the meaning and/or intent of the Arab is not necessarily clear-cut.

True, the same word in English can have several meanings (some words can, that is), but I do not think that that is quite the same, mainly because, in English, the meaning is usually obvious from the context. Also, it applies to a relatively few words, not “the average“.

Something for the Arabists in the Foreign Office to consider, if they have not all been purged, and replaced by Zionists (which may well be the case, looking at UK representation in Ukraine and Israel in recent years).

Reform UK

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/feb/02/reform-uk-can-win-scores-of-labour-seats-in-england-and-wales-says-study

Reform UK can win scores of Labour seats in England and Wales, says study.

Analysis of a mega poll shows Keir Starmer would lose more seats than Tories amid voter discontent with main parties.

Labour faces losing scores of seats to Reform UK across England and Wales as a widening section of ­voters lose faith in the mainstream parties, according to a new analysis seen by the Observer.

With senior figures in the Labour party now privately talking about a “change of era” in which more ­moderate voters are turning to Nigel Farage’s party, new research on Reform’s influence suggests it will take far more seats from Labour than from the Conservatives on ­current trends.

Reform would win 76 seats if an election were held now, according to a constituency-by-constituency model. Of those, 60 would be won from Labour, including seats across the “red wall”, as well as in Wales and across the south of England.

However, the analysis also reveals that even a relatively small further swing towards Reform from Labour could see the party pick up another 76 Labour-held seats.

The narrow Labour lead in many seats means it is susceptible in the event of a high turnout among Reform voters, a surge in Reform’s support, or a drop in Labour turnout.

The huge study, commissioned by the Hope Not Hate campaign group, has been carried out by the Focaldata polling company using a mega-poll, or MRP, made up of almost 18,000 voters.

Its analysis of almost 4,000 ­voters currently minded to back Reform found that one in five were “moderate, interventionist” voters who were unlike those who had backed Farage at the last election or supported Ukip or the Brexit party in the past.

[The Observer/Guardian]

So there it is. Reform could end up with 152 seats even on present polling and trending.

As frequently noted, Reform is part of the journey, not the ultimate destination, but this news, overall, is very good.

I only believe stock exchange speculators when they start jumping out of windows.

Of course, the System MPs (rather than voters) will fight to keep FPTP, but proportional representation is an idea the time for which has finally arrived.

In an event organised by @StEthelburgas & @letterstoearth_, a group of urbanites came together in the glorious welsh countryside to plant hedges & trees.

The method of planting 100’s of metres of hedges to connect up existing habitats (copses, ponds, areas of scrub etc) cleverly balanced allowing the land to be used for farming whilst giving more connected space for Nature.

The thing I wasn’t expecting though was crossing cultural divides. Witnessing some of the farmers on twitter & in the media who repeat culture war bait about hating both Nature & urbanites in the countryside had coloured my impression of farmers more generally. However, our host Dave was so kind & welcoming to his land & seemed genuinely touched that we had come out to help plant & restore; the jar of homemade honey he gave to each of us was a wonderful reward for a weekend well spent.

Trees add so much to a cityscape or suburb, not only to the countryside.

On those figures, the Con Party would not even be the official Opposition, thus weakening their shattered credibility further.

For Reform to be the largest party in terms of seats, its vote will have to increase to at least 27%, if not 28% or more. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.
