Talking point

https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/westminster-must-fall

Dominic Cummings delivered a Pharos Lecture in Oxford this week on why western regimes are in crisis. Here is an edited transcript of his speech:

The old political parties, the old Whitehall institutions, the old media, the old universities, the old courts constitute a political regime. This regime has become cancerous. The cancer has metastasised and the cancer is attacking everything healthy in the country; all the healthy institutions and healthy impulses are the target of Whitehall.

If you imagine our ancestors who built our civilisation over generations, looking at a sample of recent years, what would they see? Theyโ€™d see the regime fighting to maintain secrecy of the vast cover-up of industrialised mass rape of white English children by Pakistani and Somali gangs over decades, while Whitehall continues to import people from the exact same tribal areas responsible.

The system just rumbles on with its own priorities

In January, Number Ten Downing Street claimed that Elon Musk was spreading conspiracy theories about national cover-ups. This is wrong. I witnessed the attempts at these cover-ups myself when I was in working in Whitehall โ€“ including the deliberate attempt by government departments to use courts to block reporting of the entire story.”

[Spectator]

I agree with much of what Cummings says (in the whole published speech); not all.

It is clear that his overall view is correct. The System (System political parties, System civil servants, System legal drones, System mainstream media etc) is indeed now toxic, and is killing both European race and European culture, and not in the UK alone.

Incidentally, I wrote about Cummings himself a few times in the past:

Cummings makes a good argument overall, though.

Another interesting Spectator piece I have just seen: https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/why-isnt-the-bbc-telling-us-what-caused-the-ballymena-riots/.

Israel and its population, including its diasporic population, are out of control.

In fact, it seems that Israeli attacks on Iran have already begun.

Talking point

Of course, these days in the UK, people cannot be identified as Roma Gypsies; they must always be referred to as “Romanians”, which is both inaccurate and, also, insulting to real Romanians.

A similar pathology is seen in the reporting about the dreadful Air India crash a couple of days ago. We are told that, among the hundreds of dead in the crash, 53 were “British”. What that means, of course, is that 53 were Indians who had British passports. As the Guardian put it: “British man is sole survivor of Air India plane crash that left more than 260 dead. On Thursday night, Air India confirmed that 241 of those on board had been killed in the crash, with a Briton, Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, the sole survivor.”

Another example of this distorting-mirror is when German soldiers, sailors, or airmen of WW2 are referred to, even in large contingents, as “Nazis” (National Socialists). Thus we might read (or hear on the BBC) that such and such number of “Nazi ships” were in a sea battle, or that “Nazi armies” did this or that.

In fact, 8M Germans belonged to the NSDAP in WW2, about a tenth of the population (in 1933, the number was “only” 2M): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Party#Membership.

Incidentally, you can see “the usual” (((the usual))) influence in that Wikipedia piece, with the article itself headed as “Nazi Party“, not “National Socialist Party” or “NSDAP”. As many readers will know, the term “Nazi” was coined by the disgraceful anti-Hitler scribbler Konrad Heiden (a half-Jew) as an insult, rather like “Stasi“. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konrad_Heiden.

In the UK and elsewhere, truth is something “not wanted on voyage”. It embarrasses the liars of the msm and political milieu.

Israeli attack on Iran

[“Witkoff warns of deadly Iranian response to Israeli attack!! The American news portal Axios, citing one of the high-ranking US officials:

A White House envoy privately warned top Senate Republicans last week that if Israel attacks Iran’s nuclear facilities, Iran could retaliate with heavy casualties.

Witkoff sounded the alarm about what might happen in the future, saying Iran’s response could destroy Israel’s defenses.

The US is concerned that Israel’s air defense system will not be able to cope with a massive Iranian response, including hundreds of missiles.

U.S. intelligence estimates that Iran has 2,000 ballistic missiles with warheads capable of carrying more than 2,000 pounds of explosives. Israel is within range of many of these missiles.

The commander of US Central Command (CENTCOM) is expected to visit Israel on Saturday for talks with senior political and military officials over Iran.“]

Toxic.

The bastard (Starmer-stein) spoke the truth for once…(only to retract it).

A straw in the wind

I happened to be somewhere not far from my home (coastal southern England) and passed two men talking. As I walked past, I caught a sentence or two of the conversation. One man (about 55, perhaps) was saying to the other that “it will not be long before civil war starts in this country“. Interesting…

Not a traditional type of civil war, at an educated guess. Not a typical “race war” or ethnic conflict either, but more of a multiform civil/racial/social/cultural war, and one with more than two sides; perhaps several, or even many, sides.

I shall be watching events with keen interest.

My own hope is, shall I say, rather different from that of the lady tweeter.

Who would have thought that there would be commercial flights from Rijeka (Croatia) to Tel Aviv in the first place? Rijeka has only about 51,000 inhabitants.

Quite, but Netanyahu’s arrogant sense of entitlement is so typical of “them” (((them)))…

We are Aryans by origin, not Semitic (of either type).

Ursula von der Leyen is an evil sprite. Even taking the money transfers at face value, what an incredible blow to the peoples of the EU states. The EU is in economic doldrums partly, perhaps largely, because of the monies wasted on the brutal, shambolic, and corrupt Kiev regime.

It seems that Arab states such as Jordan and Saudi Arabia are actually helping to defend the Jewish state of Israel. After the history of the past 70+ years! Others may disagree with me, but as far as I am concerned, I would never trust an Arab with anything.

When you pair that with the ever-increasing proportion of Muslims in the overall UK population, you do not have to be a strategic genius to perceive the danger.

I have always opposed the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby and bloc in the UK, but the fact remains that we face more than one enemy grouping.

A good point, on the face of it.

Alerts, yes, but how many major targets have been hit?

I imagine that they have parallel but secret command centres too.

Much of that is driven by hate-filled, malicious Jew-Zionists such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”. They make malicious complaints to police, official/professional regulators, employers, and others.

The “diversity” continues…

Take a look at the online Crime pages of any newspaper, local or national, e.g. Evening Standard, My London, whatever. Make up your own mind…

Whether it happens today, next month, or in a decade’s time, Israel is doomed.

History moves on, and almost every historical and historic leader has both positive and negative aspects, as do most societies.

Saturday quiz

A modest 4/10 this week, though still enough to beat political journalist John Rentoul, who scored only 2/10 (he awarded himself another half-point for knowing the general region of question 4). I knew the answers to questions 2, 4, 8, and 10. I think I knew no.1 (still unsure) as well, and should have got no. 9 too, had I thought longer, but decline to give myself either of those.

Predictions from psychics

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13991759/baba-vanga-nostradamus-terrifying-prediction-2025.html

Two of the world’s most notorious and ominous mystics reportedly made the same exact prediction for 2025.

Both Nostradamus and Baba Vanga claim that there will be a deadly war in Europe next year.

I cannot say that I have much confidence in the accuracy of any of the (supposed) predictions made (read the full feature), but the way the idea of war with Russia is being promoted (mainly by “the usual suspects”) makes me unsettled.

If it is true that Israel attacked Teheran and that Russian-supplied air defences protected the city, that might be a gamechanger in terms of Israeli capabilities. If it is all true.

Times past

I do not at all keep up with the changes in the legal landscape, and so it happened that I was surprised yesterday to read that Blackfriars Crown Court closed down in 2019. I appeared there as Counsel a couple of times sometime around 1994.

https://www.ft.com/content/e1118f5d-8333-4261-be24-e8372191953e (worth reading, and with very good illustrations).

[Blackfriars Crown Court, London SE1]

The Financial Times report mentions that 43% of courts in England and Wales were closed to save money, by decision of the government of David Cameron-Levita, after 2010. I was aware of some of them, having myself appeared in them. Ilford County Court, Penzance County Court, Launceston Magistrates’ Court —a court building more like a deserted mausoleum even when I was there, once only, in (?) 2004, on a County Court civil case relocated there from Plymouth County Court for hearing—; Trowbridge County Court. Some other courts too.

I vaguely recall being sent in 1993 to do some trivial criminal matter at Blackfriars Crown Court, a “Mention”, I think (they usually take a matter of minutes, once you are there and being heard).

With typical contemporary stupidity, the new Blackfriars Crown Court had been temporarily designated as “Knightsbridge Crown Court (sitting at Blackfriars Crown Court)“. The brief had been marked simply “In the Knightsbridge Crown Court“. What a wonderful waste of my time…so I initially went to the court I knew as Knightsbridge Crown Court, in Hans Crescent, near Harrods, only to find that that court building was under repair (prior to being sold and repurposed).

Even more stupidly, Blackfriars Crown Court was not in the Blackfriars area on the north bank of the Thames anyway, but down an obscure side street on the south side of the river. Apparently named thus because Blackfriars Road is nearby. What idiots are employed to make such decisions?

Anyway, it seems that, after all the money spent building and equipping the court building, it was used as a trial venue for only 26 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackfriars_Crown_Court.

So now there is neither a Knightsbridge Crown Court nor a Blackfriars Crown Court.

The whole set of assumptions there is absolutely cuckoo.

No, the British armed forces would have no chance at all of repelling an invasion from, say, the German armed forces as they were in 1940, or the Soviet armed forces as they were circa 1975. Certainly not from the Chinese armed forces, should they somehow gather in Northern France in 2024.

The elephant in the room here, of course, is that the above scenarii are simply not the case. China has no plan to attack Western Europe (inc. UK), the Soviet Union ceased to exist decades ago, and Russia now not only has no intention or wish to invade the UK, but no capability to do so, looking at its less than impressive performance in Ukraine.

As for Germany, the Germany of today is not that of 1940, has no interest in invading the UK, and its armed forces are a tiny fraction of the size of those commanded by Hitler (who anyway had no serious intention of invading the UK even in 1940).

Neither do France or Spain, or the Netherlands, historical would-be invaders of England, have any interest at all in invading this country.

Who, then, is this Labour Party military genius, warning us about invasion? Oh, it is one John Healey, a one-time scribbler (for a year), disability rights campaigner (for 6 years) and then a campaigner for a trade union, and also a p/t Open University lecturer. No military experience, of course, unless you include his 4 years as Shadow Defence Secretary and now Defence Secretary. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Healey; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Healey#Shadow_cabinet.

The only “invasion” happening, which the present government, like the last one, seems powerless to stop, is the worst kind—migration-invasion of the UK by non-Europeans.

Every year, between a half-million and million invaders are arriving in this country: “small boat” illegals, “asylum seekers”, “fiances” and “fiancees”, “work visa holders”, “student visa holders”, “family members” etc. Plus births to non-whites already in the UK.

What is “Field Marshal” (or is that “field mouse”?) Healey going to do about the one invasion that is not only the only one likely to happen, but the only one actually happening? Nothing. Nothing at all.

Pathetic puppet of the Israel lobby.

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/oct/25/man-jailed-blinding-sodium-hydroxide-jivan-dean-raven-riley-wales

A man who blinded an acquaintance with a corrosive liquid at an eco-village has been jailed for 15 years.

Jivan Dean, 24, attacked Raven Riley, 21, with sodium hydroxide โ€“ an alkaline also known as caustic soda โ€“ in a jealous rage after wrongly believing he had contacted his girlfriend.

Dean was seen heating a liquid in a pan on a hob before hurling it in the face of Riley while he was sitting in a chair at a property in Tipi Valley in Carmarthenshire.

Passing sentence at Swansea crown court, Judge Geraint Walters said Dean was dangerous and passed an extended sentence of 15 years in custody with a further four years on licence.”

Such crimes were very rare here until the mass immigration catastrophe happened. In the instant case, the perpetrator is obviously part-Chinese.

Demonstrations and marches against the madness are OK, but will not, alone, achieve concrete results. In the present conditions of repression of free speech, I prefer to say no more, as yet.

It is clear, though, that the madness cannot continue indefinitely. At some point, this million a year influx (the “small boats” being only a few percent of all immigration) will cause UK society to fall apart.

The Commonwealth is largely a waste of time and money, and always was. A replacement of lesser binding than the Empire, to some extent a consolation for the Monarch (notably, of course, the late Queen): no longer an Empress or Emperor, but still “Head of the Commonwealth”.

If the present members of the Commonwealth (not all even former British colonies) are getting even more “uppity” than previously, then just say goodbye to them and take away their ricebowls, thus saving the poor old British taxpayers (those that still exist) a packet of money.

As David Irving said, the real Hitler has been lost to view, and presented by System and/or Jewish/Israeli propaganda (in the form of books, films etc) as a kind of supernatural entity of Evil.

If Trump can win, at least the prospect of a massive war in Europe, or even across much of the world, will recede.

Macron is an international conspirator. I wrote an assessment of him nearly 6 years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/09/on-recent-events-in-france/.

Israel did not attack the Iranian nuclear facilities. Does that mean that Iran will not attack Dimona? Perhaps.

Israel’s chief political lunatic of significance.

The Arabs are mostly gagging to become part of “the West”— surely that is obvious. The only thing that impedes such a development is the existence of the Israeli state. Were the USA to stop supporting Israel, a huge reset of the region would be possible.

Iran, Muslim but not Arab, might be the exception, but would probably come to terms.

Ukraine may have to give up its territories in order to end the war with Russia, said the candidate for US vice president from the Republican Party, J. D. Vance. “The Ukrainians are going to have to make that decision … They’re already too exhausted,” Vance said on News Nation. According to him, such ideas are already appearing in conversations with Ukrainian officials, especially in private discussions. “They’re starting to talk about it now.” They say this can’t last forever. They don’t have people, they don’t have weapons, they don’t have money,” Vance added.”

Reality seems to be breaking into the Beltway Bubble…
