I was just thinking about the Henry Nowak matter. I myself live only about 20 miles from that part of Southampton, though in a very different semi-rural area.
I was also thinking about the Belfast protests or small riots.
The Southampton protests seen on TV and online seem to have involved 50-100 people, I doubt many more. I suspect that either a high minority, or a majority, of people generally are angry or at least concerned by wider aspects of the Henry Nowak case, also the wider aspects of the appalling savagery of the Belfast incident, as well as the incidents themselves, yet all we can see, on the surface, talking about Southampton, is 50 or 100 people (did the crowd ever amount to as many as 150?) confronting and —pointlessly— taunting a police contingent which also seems to have been in the dozens or maybe 100-150 in number.
Southampton itself has a population of about a quarter of a million people. You cannot judge the public mood by the few willing to get involved in street stand-offs (I do not think we can call them “battles”), whether in Southampton, Belfast, or anywhere else. You cannot say that, just because only a couple of hundred people turn out for a street protest in a city with 250,000 inhabitants, that that represents an otherwise-quiescent public. Not at all.
People are getting very apprehensive/concerned/angry about the present migration invasion and its consequences.
Here's a little fact. 22% Of Irelands electricity is used by data centers. The Irish pay 50% more for their electricity than the owners of the data centres. So along with the chances of being beheaded by an African increasing.. so are your energy bills.
Thus making Labour strong favourite to win the by-election. On the surface, bad news, in that it strengthens Labour, whose national vote (however stupidly) may rise if Burnham takes over from Starmer-stein.
On the other hand, looking at the bigger picture, it means that well over a third of the people —37%— of that Makerfield area (a traditional Labour area) are now thinking in terms of nationalist politics, though not so many thinking yet in terms of social nationalism; more than are thinking of voting Labour, anyway —only 35%.
The direction of travel is toward national and even social-national politics, and away from the traditional System parties.
In any case, voting “democracy” is only part of the story. All roads lead to Rome, and only white Europeans should be allowed to vote in this country.
Look at the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union and, indeed, post-Soviet Russia. Dozens if not hundreds of ethnic groups and languages. Kept together by the knut, one way or another. To the extent that Russia has “democracy”, it is because the Russians constitute the large majority.
USA? Well, until the Second World War, the USA was large-majority white European, indeed —at one time just after the First World War— about 90% white European, albeit with a number of minority European cultures (and also a strong Jewish element in a few cities, but mainly in New York). Now, whites are just about the minority, maybe 48%, and look at how dictatorial the USA has already become.
UK? You decide…

Very true, though a few of the examples cited are ill-judged. For example, that Linehan slug joined in several times with the Jewish-lobby attacks on me after I was both wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred in 2016. Linehan is a complete tool of the Israel/Jew lobby, a nasty person through and through.
Like others (e.g. Allison Pearson, Toby Young etc), Linehan pretends to be for “free speech”, but in reality favours the “cancellation” and censorship of whomsoever is hated by the Jewish lobby.
Of course, both Linehan and Allison Pearson are within the msm milieu, so their incomes (I presume that Linehan still has an income of some sort) are dependent on not being targeted by the Jewish lobby; dimwitted Allison Pearson has even made common cause with the malicious liars and perjurers of the so-called Campaign Against Antisemitism”, the main activity of which is to whine and demand for less “free speech”.

The BBC has led the way, with a “BBC Verification” department which is itself actually just a System disinformation-broadcasting department.
Translates to a Commons with about 311 Reform UK MPs (about 15 short of an overall majority), 85 Cons (very weak official Opposition), 83 Greens, 67 LibDems, 45 SNP, 32 Labour [etc].
Those figures would mean that about 370 current Labour MPs would lose their seats, including Starmer and, notionally, any Labour MP at Makerfield.
31 current Conservative Party MPs would also lose their seats.
I think that the polling organizations are going to have to place Restore on the board, because the absence of Restore obviously skews the suggested results in terms of seats notionally won at the next GE.
If only we hadn't spent 100 billion on HS2 or spent 6 billion on an armoured vehicle that doesn't work. If they got more money they would only waste it. Someone needs to get a grip of the defence industry
To my mind, with the present System people in place, almost any money spent on defence is wasted, much of the background policy being predicated on the nation that Russia wants to or even intends to invade Eastern or Central Europe, or even Western Europe, and maybe even the UK. It’s all nonsense.
This country should not be wasting money on supporting “Ukraine” (the corrupt, brutal, and shambolic Jew-Zionist/Ukrainian thug regime in Kiev); neither should any money at all be spent on assisting the vicious Israeli regime.
As for those political parasites and chancers such as Daniel Hannan, suggesting that both State pension benefits such as the Triple Lock, and disability benefits for British people, should be slashed and the monies diverted to “defence”, forget it! Crazy, as well as being political suicide for any party entertaining it.
A million migrant-invaders are coming into the UK every year; others are being born here… Our country is quite rapidly now falling to pieces by reason, mainly, of migration invasion. Stop that, rather than building fantasy armies and navies to be deployed in fantasy scenarios about fighting Russia (and its 7,000 nuclear weapons).
On the contrary, Britain should leave NATO and cultivate good relations with Russia, thus ensuring cheap energy for our industries and domestic consumers, and also giving the UK a huge and valuable market in Russia, a market currently closed to the EU states by reason of their mad anti-Russia sanctions regime. It could all be ours.

The way England and all Britain, indeed all of the British Isles, and most of Europe now is, it seems to me that the only way forward is a replacement of the existing political/socio-political system by a limited-period social-national dictatorship. It would last for 7 years, after which an intelligently-limited form of “democracy”, based on the Threefold Social Order, would take its place.
As to the limited-term dictator, it should be someone with a clear vision into the future, and also someone who, being at least of late middle age, is as devoid of ordinary personal worldly ambition as possible. A “philosopher-king”, if you like, or a benevolent and —usually— clement “papal” figure.
Britain, as it is, cannot now be governed effectively or properly by the existing Parliamentary system. The problems the UK faces are too complex and serious, and the population too “diverse” and disunited (and becoming ever-less united and cohesive).

As the law presently stands, those found guilty cannot simply be put up against a wall and shot, but it is clear even to those in the present pointless and anti-British government that the penalties handed down were too lenient.

She talks about “Russian aggression“, but it is the UK that is flying missions over the Black Sea and Baltic Sea in support of the Kiev regime, and it is the UK that has been funnelling arms, ammunition, and hard cash to Kiev for 4 years now.
Again, listening to her, and watching her, would you trust her or her judgment? I would not.
Apart from that, how typical that the UK’s intelligence and security orgs are still fighting a kind of new Cold War, when the real threat to our “national security” comes from the incipient collapse of society via the migration invasion and other demographic, social and political factors.

[“Tony Blair is the living embodiment of what happens when political office becomes a down payment on future plunder. Ejected in 2007 by his own MPs as a massive liability, he bequeathed Britain a wild casino economy primed for the 2008 crash. And when the British economy crashed and burned, Mr Blair kept quiet while honing his skills at securing power by other means.
His first job, after his ejection from 10 Downing Street, was as the Westâs Middle East envoy, with a supposed emphasis on Gaza. It took six painful years for Mr Blairâs tenure to prove a failure so profound it amounted to active complicity in Israelâs ethnic cleansing, in Palestinian erasure, and in paving the ground for the ongoing genocide.
Soon after, the Chilcot Inquiry demolished Blairâs Iraq lies, exposing him as a liar, a chancer and a war criminal responsible for countless corpses of Iraqis, but also of British soldiers.
Then came Blairâs real innovation: the financialisation of the ex-premiership itself. The Tony Blair Institute, fuelled by ÂŖ130 million from Oracle’s Larry Ellisonâcoincidentally, the largest individual donor to the Friends of the IDFâbecame a shadow state, brokering governance contracts for autocrats and companies like Palantir that weaponise AI to produce mega-death abroad and full-on surveillance of Western populations.
Now, in May 2026, this corporate fixer issues a 5700 word tantrum demanding that Labour embrace Trump even more than Starmer already has, denounce what is left of Labourâs betrayed Green New Deal, and trash the remnants of workers’ rights. This is not the wisdom of an aging statesman. It is the frantic squirming of a man fearing his grip on oligarchic power might soon wane and whose entire post-10 Downing Street existence depends on preventing the many from ever reclaiming what the few have plundered.”]
Wall. Squad. End.

[“Watch as disgraced Former SNP First Minister of Scotland Nicola Sturgeon explains to school children, that chubby ‘hubby’ Peter Murrell does all the shopping, but even he is feeling the pinch of the ‘cost of living crisis’ caused by Westminster. Yes after embezzling ÂŖ450,000 of unsuspecting members of the Scottish public, convicted fraudster and SNP CEO Murrell was being pinched rather than simply feeling it. The psychopathical lies oozing from this woman are quite disturbing. The Sturgeons must have found it so painful stealing others people’s hard earned cash for his Fortnum & Masons ÂŖ3000 Imperial Hampers, ÂŖ4000 Mont Blanc pens, ÂŖ81,000 Jaguar and of course the icing on the cake, ÂŖ140,000 motorhome.“]
Well, the embezzling Murrell will be sent to prison (in fact, he is already there, on remand awaiting sentence); it is now just a matter of how many years he gets.
As for ghastly Nicola Sturgeon, I am sure her lesbian girlfriend(s) will take away the sting (if any) of her husband’s enforced departure.
Incidentally, I wonder what SNP members, supporters or voters think of the fact that Nicola Sturgeon was, or pretends to have been, blissfully unaware of her husband’s embezzlements, despite the sudden appearance in the home of ÂŖ2.6K Lalique condiment mills, Montblanc pens, expensive watches and Smythson stationery (they charge up to ÂŖ300 for a notebook…).
Is a woman as (supposedly) innocently unaware as Nicola Sturgeon is said to have been (apparently even seeing the sudden appearance of a ÂŖ125K-ÂŖ140K motorhome outside her modest tract house as nothing requiring any enquiry) the right person to lead a country? Or to lead anything at all?

Britain needs a synthesis of old-style socialism in some areas of activity, and dynamic private enterprise in others, together with other elements (such as genuine volunteering), and all under the umbrella of, not just a state but a society, one founded on an ethos of European race and culture. The Rudolf Steiner concept of the Threefold Social Order is more or less the right template, in principle.
Lenin saw that pure socialism or “War Communism” could not, literally could not, produce the goods, certainly not with people and circumstances as they were in the 1920s; Lenin therefore implemented the New Economic Policy even before the Soviet Union itself was formally established.
Likewise, Hitler understood that post-WW1 Germany required both a shot in the arm and a restructuring on the basis of European —in that specific case, German— race and culture, and also the excising of certain poisonous and parasitic elements, as well as the State helping to facilitate the success of the “economic element” (private enterprise and enterprises), with the State also regulating that sector for the benefit of workers and arranging for some of the benefits —profits— to be shared by both employees and (via taxation etc) the State, and so the people, the Volk, as a whole.

Brave words, yet J.K. Rowling often seems to make common cause with the Jewish/Israel lobby, elements of which conspired to have me disbarred in 2016 for 5 tweets (every single one true and accurate, and not one addressed to an individual); later, effectively the same Jew-Zionist lobby had me prosecuted, in 2023-2024, for a few cartoons and comments allegedly posted on this blog. Small parts of a mere 5 daily blog posts, over a period of 3 years, and extracted from literally thousands of pages of blog material, as the woodentopped Hampshire police and the “fat ladies” of CPS Wessex have admitted on their Twitter accounts and websites.
I was sentenced, as noted on those blog posts above, about 18 months ago. My financial penalty (ÂŖ735 altogether) was one-third crowdfunded by a few generous donors, the rest paid off in several monthly instalments.
My “9-month community order” (nominally “15 rehabilitation days” over the 9 months) amounted in fact to half a dozen or so brief meetings over about 5 months, and with a rather charming young lady from the Probation Service.
Average length of meeting was about 40 minutes; one, I think the first one, was a couple of hours, most were far shorter than 40 minutes (one was about 15 mins). General chat mixed in with a bit of armchair psychology. Naturally, such methods are designed for people (often drunks or drug abusers) convicted of bashing their noisy neighbours, or of having “had it away” with a trolley full of supermarket produce, not for someone accused of having made politically-disapproved-of statements…
In the end, my “probation” (to use the older term) was cut short for reasons that were never explained. I presume that the probation people are swamped by real crime as society slides to destruction, and thus decided that it was pointless (as it was, of course) to have me coming in every few weeks for half an hour.
The free speech trial was held in November 2023, nearly 2 years ago. Sentencing was in mid-March 2024. My last “probation” meeting was in early September 2024, so already over a year ago. It already seems as if it happened years ago.
The aim of the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, via its self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”, one “Slitherman” (shall we call him?), who attended both trial and sentencing, and whom I publicly named and shamed in open court, was to stop publication of this blog by having me prosecuted by a compliant police “farce” and the “Clown” Prosecution Service. That attempt to gag me failed. The blog continued to be published throughout the prosecution, trial, and sentencing process, even on the days of trial; it continued to be published throughout the ~5 month period of “probation” in 2024, and has continued to appear on a near-daily basis since then.

I have noticed, on Twitter, that most of the loonies (“antifa” types, Jew-Zionists, and actual mental cases, the last type almost all also belonging to the first two types mentioned) who attacked me for years, have disappeared from Twitter, and in a few cases off the face of the Earth.
I know that several who conspired against me have died, others may or may not have done, but have disappeared from Twitter, possibly into mental hospitals. Where, I wonder, is, for example, Jasna Badzak, “the Balkan Fraud”? Where is unprofessional NHS psychiatrist (himself suffering from mental illness, as he admitted on Twitter/X) Tim G. Stevens of Essex? Where is Mike Stuchbery? (actually, I know where he is— Stuchbery, now living in Stuttgart, has decamped to Twitter’s rival, “Blue Sky”, where he now posts only occasionally; maybe the German health service gives him better medications).
Just three examples of many. Incidentally, I noticed recently that another pro-Israel crazie, one-time MP Louise Mensch, whose wealthy Jewish husband finally divorced her (though I expect he had to pay through the nose to get rid of her), is back on Twitter/X, after a long period in which she apparently had a further mental breakdown and made up packs of highly-publicized lies about Putin and Trump, which lies were eventually exposed.
Louise Mensch used to tweet about me and even, extremely vituperatively, directly to me (when I had a Twitter account, before 2018). I have blogged about her craziness and malice previously. It can be found via the search box.
Youâre clearly right. But thatâs where weâre headed. Rapidly.
Quite (both tweets). The breakdown of culture, society, and even civilization itself is a terrible prospect. People need order, but preferably order which does not go so far (except for a brief period of what might be called “social therapy” or “social surgery”) as becoming a dictatorship or, still less, tyranny.
Hitler is usually considered to be, and considered himself, a dictator, yet he recognized that his period of dictatorship, though necessary in the short to medium term, would eventually mellow, after his retirement, and become something milder and less “dictatorial”.
What is usually worse even than outright tyranny, is anarchy (in the sense of chaotic failure of social and political norms, not “anarchy” as understood by, e.g., Kropotkin).
I can see that a kind of social/racial/cultural war is on the horizon, and not only in the UK, but I rightly fear the collapse of society, of its structure and order, of its civilized services of all kinds.

[“If you want to know how utterly insane the UK is right now read this: Last year, a man named Shahidul Haque, 55, who is on benefits, claims he is “disabled” because of “obstructive sleep apnoea” and depression, and cannot speak English, was moved into a retirement home in Berkshire. A retirement home. His rent? ÂŖ110 a week. A few months later, he brought his 28-year-old wife and two children into the retirement home, claiming he did not know he was not allowed to do this because he cannot speak English and read tenancy documents. After the elderly neighbours complained about anti-social behaviour and sought his eviction, Shahidul Haque said he should not be evicted because it would be a breach of his “human rights”. His lawyers are using the European Convention on Human Rights to try and prevent his eviction. Our “leaders” are giving foreigners who do not speak English subsidised housing in retirement homes for our elderly because they claim to have “depression”. This is insane. This has to stop.“]
I agree that these people should be arrested. But again, what are the free speech limits. Lucy Connolly tweeted "Set fire to all the fucking hotels full of the bastards for all I care. While youâre at it, take the treacherous government and politicians with them". https://t.co/UqbHcq3McS
“Justice” would have been served, under existing law, perfectly well in the Lucy Connolly case had she been given a conditional discharge, or a small fine. No need to imprison her.
Has it really taken radio loudmouth James O’Brien five years to understand that?! I was saying it on the blog about 4-5 years ago! (re. Starmer as Labour leader, long before he even became Prime Minister).

Here we see in print, and from the horse’s mouth, Mandelson himself, that Mandelson first met the Jew rapist and Israeli Intelligence agent Epstein via Ghislaine Maxwell, who was obviously herself an agent of Israeli Intelligence (either MOSSAD or Aman, or both); her horrible and evil father, “Robert Maxwell”, is now generally accepted as having been one of MOSSAD’s most important agents over many decades, which is why the Jewish authorities in Israel allowed him to be buried on the Mount of Olives at Jerusalem [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_of_Olives].
The whole Epstein thing was a massive and hugely-expensive operation by Israeli Intelligence. In fact, some msm journalists have asked where did Epstein’s money really come from. That is, Epstein was somehow wealthier than his history suggested: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Epstein.
As to why Israel would pay out so much, you only have to look at what is known (tip of the iceberg) about the “Lolita Express” passengers. Several Americans on the Presidential level, many just below that level, some top-level advisers such as Dershowitz. Top-grade intelligence sources, if they could be recruited or tapped. More than that, they were persons able to influence policy, especially U.S. policy at the top level(s). Absolutely top-grade agents of influence, if they could be persuaded or nudged to play ball.

Breivik? Another lone wolf and, if he has any influence, it would be mainly on other individuals, not on society as a whole, or the policies of any government.
Social-nationalists are already here, and stand ready to do whatever is necessary when the time comes.
As for “socialism doesn’t work“, that is true on the economic level; it is less easily productive than finance-capitalism. However, that is a narrow way of looking at the question.
“The threefold social order is a social theory by Rudolf Steiner proposing society be organized into three distinct, autonomous spheres: the cultural (or spiritual) sphere (focused on freedom and individuality), the legal/political sphere (based on equality and rights), and the economic sphere (built on solidarity and meeting needs). Each sphere should operate independently but interact, forming a healthy, interconnected social organism.”

“Jeffrey Epstein was a very wealthy man, but exactly how wealthy and where that money came from remains shrouded in mystery.
Newly unearthed emails last week shone light on Epsteinâs role as freelance client development officer, acting as a channel between political figures and business titans, greasing up the former with lifestyles they could not afford and the latter with avenues of political influence.
…the questions about the source of Epsteinâs wealth have never been fully resolved. He was worth nearly $600m at his death, thanks mostly to two wealthy billionaire clients â Victoriaâs Secret founder Les Wexner and, later, Apollo Global Management co-founder Leon Black â as well as Johnson & Johnson heiress Elizabeth âLibetâ Johnson, sister of former US ambassador to the UK Woody Johnson.
Between his collection of lavish homes in New York, Palm Beach and Paris, two private Caribbean islands, two jets and helicopter, Epstein held nearly $380m in cash and investments, according to his estate.
That wealth arrived suddenly. According to associates, until the end of the 90s, Epstein was living in a two-bedroom apartment on Manhattanâs Upper East Side close to the river. It was only when Maxwell arrived from London that his lifestyle was dramatically elevated.
Epstein moved to a townhouse on 68th Street and later to a 28,000-sq-ft mansion on 71st Street, later transferred to him by Wexner in 2011.
Steven Hoffenberg, a former business partner of Epstein convicted of running a Ponzi scheme, claimed that Maxwellâs father, disgraced press baron Robert Maxwell, introduced his daughter to Epstein in the late 1980s.“
So Yvette Cooper, the would-be dictator, Labour Friends of Israel puppet, and expenses fraudster, currently posing as Home Secretary, will probably ban Palestine Action. Pretty silly.
For one thing, this seems to have been decided not because a couple of activists vandalized RAF planes by daubing graffiti, but because they have made the RAF, the woman “commander” of that base, SERCO (who apparently provided the outsourced and in fact non-existent “security”, no doubt at a high price), and the Government, look very very silly.
Had there been even one dozy military policeman on duty and doing his duty, the protesters could have been told to get lost, or been arrested before they got anywhere near those planes.
This was not “terrorism” but fairly standard protest of the “action directe” type. The action that makes sense would be to actually have proper security on Britain’s few remaining RAF bases, and not to label a small protest group “terrorist”; which will, in any case, only drive the situation underground, I should imagine.

In the 1930s, both the Soviet Union and National Socialist Germany allowed tourism, in the case of Germany free individual travel as well as group tours, in the Soviet Union mostly escorted and tightly-monitored group travel. Where they differed more was in the reverse situation: the German authorities were happy to let their citizens travel, knowing that few if any countries in the world would eclipse Germany under Hitler in terms of lifestyle, facilities etc. In the Soviet Union, of course, only the approved few were allowed out to tour foreign countries.

This is a comprehensive take down of pro-immigration zealots such as Jonathan Portes, Rob Ford, Sunder Katwala who have consistently claimed mass uncontrolled immigration is good for Britain.
British/English people, most of them, are not having children. Those that do have children are restricting the number to one or two, for the most part. Not enough. Below replacement-level.
We need to have a bloc, however small, of English ethno-national people, even if most of them are “non-political”— that does not really matter, in the big scheme of things. A basis for the foundation of a later people who in turn can be a foundation for a super-race, a quantum-leap in human evolution.

âIt is not, for me, a question of âhatingâ non-whites, but of providing a platform for the evolution of consciousness, for the eventual development of what might be called a âsuper-raceâ, in the sense of a people whose capacities would be seen by us, today, as âsuperhumanâ.
Only the European people, speaking ethnically, can provide that platform and foundation for the later development. That is why we must oppose importation of non-whites into Europe, not because we âhateâ them as such but because, primarily, their presence in Europe makes more likely a mixed-race population, which would make further evolution impossible.â

“Seventeen councils are accommodating up to 10 times more asylum seekers than homeless people, analysis suggests.
The biggest disparity was seemingly in Pendle, a borough inside Reform’s newly-gained Lancashire authority.
Latest Government data shows 453 asylum seekers are being housed in Pendle. In contrast, only nine homeless households are in temporary accommodation.“

One wonders how long Britain can accept 500-1,000 migrant-invaders every single day without either civil/social/race/culture war breaking out, or society just gradually (or perhaps suddenly) collapsing.
We need national revolution.

When I lived in Devon and Cornwall (both, first in a large country house in Cornwall, then in a farmhouse in Devon), I would see badgers at night quite often; sometimes, on the Devon side of the Tamar, I would drive down an almost unused single-track lane at night which was a back-lane off a back-lane. Badgers would be there, unafraid of the car because they rarely saw one, and would mass ahead of the car, about ten at a time. I would have to wait until they deigned to move aside. Lovely creatures. I cannot understand why backward cruel people sometimes hunt and kill them, but then Marx did talk about “rural idiocy“…

As usual, the (Israeli) Jews thought they were so clever making that sneak attack on Iran, but now look— not only have they not (yet?) subdued Iran, but Tel Aviv, their “window on the world” and second-largest city, lies in ruins, much of it anyway. Tourism is dead, investment is dead, trade and commerce is all but dead, and Iran still has thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of missiles, and untold numbers of drones, while Israel is running out of defensive missiles, we are told.
The damage is so bad that anyone photographing it, or posting photos online, is subject to arrest.
Meanwhile, those Jews who can, are fleeing.

The UK economy tanked from 0.4% to 0.1% at the start of the year. We are going backwards. This is what happens when you cling to a Big State, Big Tax, Big Debt, Big Net Zero, Big Immigration model that is stifling growth and prosperity.
Not sure I agree with all of that, but certainly agree about the net zero and mass immigration aspects. I wonder whether Matt Goodwin is positioning himself to become leader of Reform UK and, therefore, potentially, Prime Minister by 2028 or 2029?
As to the Runcorn and Helsby by-election, it is now surely Reform UK’s to lose, looking at the utterly disastrous Starmer-stein Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment. I have already covered the by-election on the blog:
Incidentally, Lord Ashcroft or his employees should learn to spell: “likelihood” is not spelled “likelyhood“.
That opinion poll is interesting, though. Labour support in the constituency seems to have almost halved since the 2024 General Election. In a way, however, the fact that a third of Runcorn and Helsby voters are still inclined to stick with fake “Labour” despite both the thuggishness of the former MP and the actions of Starmer-stein’s useless and unpleasant government says something, arguende, about the intelligence or nous of the average voter!
The fact is that the Conservative Party has no chance in that constituency anyway, so the way for Con or former Con supporters to stick it to Labour and/or Starmer-stein is to vote Reform.
As for disenchanted Labour or former Labour voters, they can protest against Starmer-stein’s and Rachel Reeves’ (and Liz Kendall’s) utter betrayal of everything for which “Labour” used to stand by voting Reform or, failing that, or if they cannot countenance that, by just staying home, abstaining from voting.

Incidentally, I just saw a Daily Mirror report about Kiev-regime drone strikes on Moscow yesterday or overnight.

Well, the nearest place —let alone palace— on the Black Sea from Moscow is about 865 miles away. The “British” msm is just full of absolute bs.

I agree with that tweet, but I also agree with this:
At present, the UK is importing about a million so-called “legal” immigrants every year, as well as 50,000-100,000 illegal ones. There is no indication that Starmer-stein, “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, or Liz Kendall see any of that as the existential peril for our society that it is.
As for Rachel Reeves’ idea of building millions of hutches for people (many of them migrant-invaders): first of all, who will build those “houses”, in a situation where even poorly-trained artisans are in short supply? Secondly, few will be able to afford to buy or even rent the dwellings. Most will be subsidized. How will that save government money, or much stimulate the general economy?
More pathetic System-drone bs, in other words.

The above half-dozen tweets all relate to the libel action won by the tweeter, James Wilson, an academic from the North East of England, who won against a swamp of dishonest Jew-Zionist lawyers and perjuring or “unreliable” witnesses (every last one a Jew-Zionist).
Simon Myerson was a witness for the defence in that case. Myerson, a barrister based in Leeds, was later sacked as a part-time judge for other reasons, at least officially (his malicious and vituperative tweets and other social media comments). In the case in question here, Myerson’s testimony was given very little, if any, weight by the trial judge.
As for the defendants, one, a vicious pro-Israel social media troll called Pete Newbon, committed suicide before the trial had ended, he having failed to inform his wife that the libel case was happening, and that their family home might be on the line.
Another defendant, one Cantor, was (as it appears) either negligently or, quite likely, deliberately misled by the Jew-Zionist solicitor and Israel-lobby political fanatic Mark Lewis. It seems that Cantor will now lose his family home by reason of Lewis’s default(s), in order to satisfy the court-ordered legal costs of the successful claimant, Wilson. Not that I personally have the slightest sympathy for Cantor or any similar individual.
I do not know, but it seems not unlikely that, the defendants or surviving defendants having now a legal obligation to pay Wilson’s costs (though they are but a fraction of those that would have been claimed by the lawyers of the defendants, had they succeeded at trial), those surviving defendants will almost certainly end up suing Lewis and probably also Patron Law, the mainly Jewish law firm (based in a mews side-street in Notting Hill, West London), which is Lewis’s legal foothold in England (he is now, and has been since 2018, an Israeli citizen supposedly living in Eilat, Israel).

Certainly not allowing access to women’s sport, where a biological male has vast physical advantages. Trump’s position on this is the right one – it should be banned. It is entirely unfair and unjust. Women-only spaces must remain solely for women. The policing of our language on this, particularly in a medical context, has to stop. It’s dangerous, warped and does not represent actual reality. Men cannot get pregnant, and women cannot have a penis. Sorry, but that’s just a fact. And most of all? Stop forcing the idea that we can be born in the ‘wrong’ bodies on impressionable children. That poison needs to be kept AWAY from schools – ban it, and sack anyone in any position of authority who forces it on young boys and girls, potentially leading to permanent life-altering medical procedures. Grown adults are free to live their lives however they choose, but do not expect the rest of the country to change how it operates to accommodate this.

The thing people need to realise is that the Government's problems aren't being created because they're pursuing some hard-line Left wing ideology. It's because the Ming Vase strategy meant Labour has entered government without any clear plan or strategy at all.
The “@louderry” tweeter ignores the fact (as she would, as a Labour-label supporter) that the continuing mass immigration or migration-invasion renders otiose any governmental plans to “bring in investment and fund public services” (even if Labour had any such plan, which I doubt).
The public services, in all senses, from NHS and police to water supplies and housing, are swamped, and will be swamped even more, by the ever-rising migrant tide. A million a year, in rough figures.
You still see tweets, or comments on rigged TV panel “discussion” shows, that the only reasons people don’t want mass immigration are because they do not want Indian or Pakistani NHS doctors with doubtful standards, or because they do not want to see blacks wandering about in their local area. Partly, yes, perhaps (and why should they have to tolerate that anyway?), but mainly it is because to import a population, every single year, the equivalent in size to that of Birmingham, or twice the size of that presently inhabiting Manchester, is a sure-fire recipe for total disaster.
It makes no difference at all whether the immigrants enter legally or not, except that the “illegals” are even less likely to have any useful qualifications or skills. The result, over generations, will be the same.
'No matter how admirable a #constitution may look upon paper, it will be ineffectual unless the unwritten constitution, the web of custom and convention, affirms an enduring moral order of obligation and personal responsibility'. Russel Kirk
This is exactly what those who favour a “written constitution” for the UK, or who come from the USA, often fail to understand. Britain does have a Constitution, and actually it is not entirely “unwritten”; it is contained in innumerable precedents, laws, customs, conventional procedures etc, but is not contained in one quasi-sacred document, as is the Constitution of the USA.
The best way to understand the British Constitution is to read a student text. English law undergraduate students, for example, usually have to take a Constitutional Law module in the first year of their degree.

DEI and ESG are destroying the London Stock Exchange. The ludicrous proposal for a new football regulator will muck up one of our most successful sectors. Net zero is wrecking our automotive industry, our steel industry, our petrochemical industry, oil and gas businesses, farming, housebuilding âĻ you name it. As Reeves is beginning to understand, net zero must be entirely put aside if we want to have growth.
No one is explaining the obvious: there is no money. In 1950, the UK had the fifth-highest GDP per capita in the world. Now weâre 27th and dropping. Yet we still act as though we have money to burn, spending more per capita on benefits than our wealth allows. We spend what âfeels rightâ or seems âfairâ rather than what we can afford. More prudent, formerly much poorer countries such as Poland are forecast to overtake us. Our brightest and best are leaving the country.”
In a sense, correct. My remedy, though, is of course not the same as that proposed in the Times (free-market pseudo-libertarianism), but a form of social nationalism.
Slightly to my surprise, I realised, after a week or two of Starmer-Labour, that the new Cabinet was clueless to an extent that rivalled or indeed outdid those of Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.
“Rachel from Accounts and Customer Relations” is not even the worst of the bunch. I mean, just look at David Lammy!
That Times article has sensible elements, but then degenerates into a polemic against the Welfare State and even (up to a point) the State itself. The Ayn Rand poison (((poison))) has contaminated socio-political thought in both the USA and UK.
He may know about business and, perhaps, economics, but his socio-political understanding seems to leave much to be desired.
The polemic continues thus:
“Our focus should be on citizensâ responsibilities â to get a job, support themselves and their family and contribute to the tax base (53 per cent of citizens currently get more in benefits than they pay in taxes).
But who is going to say this? All the major political parties regard it as electoral suicide to oppose the pension triple lock, cut disability payments, scrap regulators. Just look at the hysterical reaction to Labourâs eminently sensible cuts in the winter fuel allowance. Political leaders got the message: we must pretend that current levels of government spending are entirely affordable. But until some politician can persuade the electorate of the hard realities of whatâs needed to get us growing again, things can only get worse.”
So the “noble” “lord” supports taking away the winter fuel help for pensioners, supports reducing the State pension itself, and supports (further) impoverishing the sick and disabled etc? Terrible, and actually unnecessary.
I agree, though, that there must come a point at which the British people say “ENOUGH!”…but not to institute a society of “Ronnie Reagan meets Ayn Rand”. More like “English tradition meets National Socialism and social nationalism, and they meet the Threefold Social Order”…

“Mathematically impossible numbers“? I seem to recall another situation in history involving “mathematically-impossible numbers” of individuals supposedly killed…in fact, that other situation involves numbers so vast, and industrial contrivances so complicated (and for which there is no historical evidence at all), that it seems that, at least in the way “they” usually say, and/or in the numbers “they” say, it is doubtful that that situation ever occurred at all…
If the numbers shown from Gaza are —supposedly— implausible (according to the Israelis), then those other numbers, from that other —supposed— incident of world history (promoted constantly by the Israelis and the world Jewish lobby) are completely unbelievable, as are the supposed events in detail.
As far as the Gazan deaths and injuries are concerned, the Israelis seem to be saying something akin to “we have not killed 30,000+ people, mostly women and children, neither have we injured 100,000+. The figures are far less high, and far fewer children were killed or grievously injured.”
Do the “Israelis” really think that that sort of argument cuts much ice, even if true (and, after all, they are inveterate falsifiers of history)?
Jeremy Vine, a high profile and richly rewarded BBC employee, calls for a major segment of the rival alternative media to be seized and shut down.#DefundTheBBCpic.twitter.com/gNViLKtxpH
I have always been puzzled at the career of Jeremy Vine. Basically rather mediocre as journalist and presenter, with a 2:2 degree in English. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Vine. Just fortunate, I suppose. Also, always parrots the System line, whether re. free speech or, say, “Covid”…
There are so many examples in our society (especially but not exclusively on TV and other msm) of people, often not terribly interesting, being absurdly overpaid, that one should not waste too much time on it, however irritating it is that someone such as Vine gets half a million or a million a year. There are bigger issues.

In my view, the Threefold Social Order is the way to go, but that is not something easy to implement overnight; it requires understanding on the part of not only a few “at the top” but also many at all social and income levels in society. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_threefolding.
If society collapses as a result of a major war, or civil/cultural/racial war, or from any other reason, there will obviously come about a period of chaos followed by dictatorship (as Plato realized), but that period must be temporary, and eventually replaced by an organically-developing “threefold social order” in society.

Worth pointing out, though, that the tens of thousands of pounds (maybe hundreds of thousands) the police (behaving as a poundland Stasi) and Clown Prosecution “Service” spent and wasted (over years), employing drones and dogsbodies to trawl through about a thousand or more of my blog posts, might have been better spent dealing with real crime, not invented and contrived thought crime. Just a thought.
All that money and effort (and it would have been thousands more had I availed myself, as I was entitled to do, of my right to instruct solicitors and Counsel via legal aid) has resulted in a sentence of 15 days (part-days) talking with the Probation Service, plus a costs order of ÂŖ734 (part of which has already been crowdfunded, and which is anyway being paid off at a not-too-painful ÂŖ91.75 per month).

“The UK is trapped in a cycle of political, social and financial turmoil. But there is a way out.
If there is any consensus in our otherwise fractured, toxic national debate it is that we cannot go on like this. Our economy is in crisis, exemplified by an annual ÂŖ100bn shortfall in public and private investment, which must be lifted decisively for Britain to break out of todayâs triple whammy of stagnant growth, productivity and living standards.
Society reels from alarming gaps in the provision of crucial public services and the yawning unfairness in the distribution of income, wealth and opportunity.
Our democracy and state seem incapable of acknowledging the full extent of these deformities, let alone adequately responding to them.
Our international standing has plummeted at a time of geopolitical peril. A transformative response is an imperative.
My new book, This Time No Mistakes: How to Remake Britain, tries to address the origins of this interlinked crisis â and offer a feasible way out. Nothing is immutable. We are agents of our own destiny.
The heart of the problem is a misconception about how capitalism and society work. Capitalism must be managed and regulated to work for the common good, just as society has to be curated to provide fairness and opportunity for all. Crucially, the vitality of the two are interdependent. Capitalism must be organised so it provides economic ladders that every individual can climb while a social contract must offer a floor below which they cannot fall. Britainâs problem is that the Conservative party, in power for all but 13 of the last 45 years, does not accept these truths or interdependencies. Worse, even if it did, neither the dominant culture and practise of our capitalism, nor the structure of our democracy, state and media would have made it easy to fashion the necessary responses.
Conservative ideology has been in thrall to the contrary proposition that markets will self-organise to produce the best economic and social outcomes propelled by individual energy and ambition alone. The British state confers near-continual unfettered power to the Conservatives, and so in their view needs no reform. Yet the reality is that capitalismâs unchecked rollercoaster rhythms create instability, inequity and monopoly and so must be managed and counteracted. Nor can capitalism be relied upon to best organise how firms are governed and ownership responsibilities discharged; how workers are properly trained and paid; or to ensure that fair dealing is the norm between firms and their customers. Of necessity enter the state, much better designed than at present.
The UK has its back against the wall to a degree unparalleled in its peacetime history, facing economic problems more acute than the successive sterling crises of the 20th century or the trade union militancy that prompted the general strike of 1926 or winter of discontent in 1979. The level of our national debt has climbed alarmingly over the past quarter of a century, with no compensating increase in public assets, so that the net worth of the public sector â assets less liabilities â is more dangerously in the red than any other country bar Portugal. Similarly, more than 20 years of imports of goods and services exceeding exports has meant our international debts have climbed by ÂŖ1.5tn, so that our balance sheet â positive for centuries as a result of empire and as pioneer of the Industrial Revolution â is now dangerously negative. Fifty companies that could have been in the FTSE 100 were sold abroad between 1997 and 2017; we are running out of assets to sell. At the same time almost every metric on the economic and social dashboard â whether social mobility or the number of new companies launching on the London stock market â is flashing amber or red.
Rightwing ideological maxims, initiated by Margaret Thatcher in 1979 and continued by her imitators, have led to a sequence of policy disasters â monetarism, wholesale financial deregulation, austerity and then Brexit. Far from launching a renaissance, Thatcher was the author of pernicious decline. The doctrine is that the private âIâ is morally superior to anything public, that the stateâs âcoerciveâ proclivities must be reined in to promote a âfreeâ market, that regulation and taxation stifle enterprise, that unless ferociously means-tested and minimalist, welfare creates a huge underclass of undeserving âshirkersâ, and that good public services follow from a successful economy rather than being integral to it.
Little of the policy that flows from this jumble of ideology and prejudice has any evidence base. As the totality of the failure has unfolded, so the Conservative partyâs unity has fragmented into the blind alleys of libertarianism and the debacle of the Truss government, ongoing phobia about all things European and the temptations of anti-immigrant, anti-foreigner, anti-woke populism. It has become an ungovernable federation of cults.
In the 1980s, monetarism did not contain inflation as billed, but rather prompted mass unemployment, hollowed out much of our productive economy â manufacturing employment nearly halved in a decade â and eviscerated public investment. The areas so scarred by the experience would, 30 years later, vote for Brexit. Financial deregulation led to the fastest rise in private indebtedness in our history, propelling illusory economic growth buoyed not by investment and innovation but a flood of credit. It could only end in tears. Writing The State Weâre In in the mid-1990s, to warn of an impending tragedy without a change of course, I did not anticipate the great financial crisis of 2007/8, felt most acutely in Britain, although it was obvious the whole rickety structure could only fail in some way. Nor did I imagine that Britain would repeat the failures with the economically illiterate budgetary tightening of austerity and then torch the one successful economic policy asset it had remaining, EU membership, which had boosted GDP by 10%. Yet such was the grip of the right on the Tory party that their bad ideas, once unthinkable, became our lived reality.
And Britainâs liberal left cannot absolve itself of blame. If Conservatism has over-emphasised the âIâ, the left has not yet found an electorally attractive way of making the case for âWeâ â or, better still, blending it with the âIâ to create a political philosophy, and attractive policies that flow from it, that would appeal to the majority. My proposition is that the âWeâ should be built on fusing an ethic of socialism grounded in profound human attachment to fellowship, mutuality and co-operation with the ethic of progressive or new liberalism that emerged 150 years ago as a challenge to classic liberalism. Essentially, liberal thinkers such as Thomas Hill Green and Leonard Hobhouse (forerunners of progressive liberals Keynes and Beveridge) argued that individuals and society were in a constant iterative relationship. Individuals shape society, society shapes individuals, and each and everyone has an obligation to make the social whole as strong as possible, which they are obliged to recognise even while they pursue their own ambitions and interests. Green called this the politics of obligation, which not only the great reforming 1905-15 Liberal government would follow, but later the Keynesian economic revolution and Beveridgeâs welfare state.
Labour, as Tony Crosland diagnosed in the 1950s in The Future of Socialism, was founded on being all things leftist to everyone to encourage as big a membership as possible. It was a coalition of Marxists to gradualist Fabians â so laying the foundation for more than 100 years of feuding. Only the ethic of socialism, which has deep roots in western philosophy, the great religions and the Enlightenment, stands the test of time. It was Aristotle who declared that those who deny the primacy of a healthy society to their individual wellbeing are either âa beast or a godsâ, while the father of British empiricism, Francis Bacon, would write âwealth is like muck. It is not much good but if it be spread.â
Progressive liberalism and an ethic of socialism are not incompatible value systems: they are complementary. Progressive liberalism leans into the individualism that propels capitalism while accepting social obligations; an ethic of socialism leans into the foundation of a social contract and infrastructure of justice that underpin the sinews of a good society. Ideological socialismâs hostility to capital and liberalismâs association with the upper class and upper middle class initially made a rapprochement between the two impossible. Today those obstacles have faded. It was Tony Blair who saw the opportunity that could be grasped, and perhaps his best contribution to progressive politics was his rewriting of Labourâs infamous high socialist clause IV to articulate the fusion. New Labour may have shrunk from the full implications; it will fall to successors to make it live.
The vision is of a âwe societyâ â a high investment economy populated by companies that take their social responsibilities seriously, underpinned by a rejuvenated social contract in which health, housing, education, justice, welfare and the labour market all combine to offer every individual the chance fully to participate in work, social and civic life. No more lost Einsteins and Marie Curies.
The starting point must be to raise public investment decisively and so âcrowd inâ private investment radically to lift productivity and real wages (wages adjusted for inflation). Three targets select themselves â the vital need to close the disgraceful gap in productivity, infrastructure and economic performance between London and the regions; the commitment to achieve net zero by 2050 given the alarming rise in global temperatures; and the need to lift research and development spending dramatically. To move the dial in all these areas will require public borrowing for such investment to rise by at least 1% of GDP, or between ÂŖ25bnâ ÂŖ30bn, with fiscal rules organised around real-world, rather than accounting, goals. The financial markets will be reassured if they know that the investment they are supporting is strategic and thought through. Britain can break out of its low growth trap without financial mishap.
Shibboleths about taxation need to be put to one side. Taxation represents the âweâ, and as long as the demands on all sections of society are reasonable â involving at present a greater contribution by the wealthy, whose assets in relation to GDP have doubled since 1980 â there is no evidence that tax receipts at todayâs level or even marginally higher will damage growth. What matters is that Britain does what it must to lift its growth rate. A âgrowth commissionâ should establish rolling targets for public investment and be held to account to achieving them â the means to vitally needed change.
Importantly, the savings and investment system must be reshaped to drive credit and equity investment to support the financial needs of the companies big and small that we need to feed off the surge in public investment. Two young institutions â the UK Infrastructure Bank and British Business Bank â must be turbocharged so they can operate at the multibillion-pound scale necessary. Banks must be incentivised to supply business loans on much less onerous and flexible terms, and the pension system must be boosted and organised to invest in fast-growing companies based on frontier new technologies. A big multibillion private sector wealth fund â already mooted by some in the City â must work in concert with a public sector wealth fund to invest in what will be the great companies of tomorrow, ensuring they stay British-owned to anchor our economy.
The law needs to ensure that companies make their prime objective the achievement of great social purposes rather than short-term self-enrichment. This should especially apply to all our regulated utilities. The best in British business and our utilities have already begun to move in this direction, putting achievement of great purpose at their heart: it needs to become the general rule. Competition policy must be stepped up so that there is much less incentive and capacity to rig prices in monopoly or quasi monopoly positions. This is particularly important for those businesses and sectors whose business models depend on strength in âintangiblesâ â intellectual property, human skills, data and digital advantages, research â whose growth has been cramped by so many financial and regulatory biases that favour incumbents. British capitalism, in short, needs to be repurposed both to grow and to work for the common good.
No less essential is to repair the threadbare social contract. The new risks and inequalities that every citizen will confront in an ever faster moving environment, along with new centres of prosperity, need to be mitigated and managed to ensure the new economic world is underwritten by great education, health and housing â and income support when for any reason people find it impossible to work. The workplace needs to be reconfigured so employees are conferred dignity and voice, with trade unions as active partners of purposeful companies. There must be a proper system of social care. We cannot have children going hungry in their millions, with schools, training institutions and further education colleges allowed to decay. And lastly, housing must be restored as a central pillar of the good society. Council tax, the mortgage market, social housing and the system of tenure all require a major overhaul. It would all be integral to a British-style New Deal.
The British state that perforce must catalyse and lead all this must be reformed and recast. It needs the capacity to act strategically, but with far stronger mechanisms for being held accountable for what it does. Parliament must recover its capacity to deliberate and scrutinise along with making law. The reduction of MPs to mere lobby-fodder ciphers to service the transient whims of an unprecedented churn of ministers is surely one reason why nearly 100 this parliament â a record â have been sanctioned for gross lapses in their behaviour. Our second chamber, the Lords, must be democratised. Ethical standards, from conduct in office to political donations, need to be respected and enforced. Boris Johnsonâs abuses cannot be allowed again. The independence of the judiciary must be better entrenched. The tone and content of our national conversation, framed by a dominant and frequently hysterically biased rightwing media magnified by social media, needs to be hosed down â a revival in public service broadcasting and regulation of content is a necessity.
Britain has the potential to become an envied European economic and social model. Indeed to re-engage with the European Union is another indispensable part of recovery. The case is not only economic, recovering lost markets, increasing trade intensity, and stimulating falling inward investment that are costing a lost 5% of GDP every year (and growing) but geopolitical. Britain must be âin the roomâ where the great decisions on Ukraine, defence, security, energy, climate emergency, and the regulatory standards are taken that will configure our continent. Empire and Commonwealth have gone; the 21st century will be shaped by three great blocs â the US, China and the EU. To be alone to assert a meaningless âsovereigntyâ to assuage the fantasies of rightwing populists is madness.
The emerging rightwing nexus of libertarian tax-cutters and immigration-phobes, so ready to put achieving those aims above the rule of law and respect for human rights, is unfit to govern. At the next election Britain needs a government that will sure-footedly reshape our capitalism and society to promote growth, enfranchisement and a country at ease with itself â respecting rather than deifying its past better to build the future. We can act to shape our destiny. This time no mistakes.“
[Will Hutton, in The Guardian]
I disagree with some of that; agree with more.
The most glaring near-omission is that Hutton scarcely mentions the fact that a million non-whites a year are entering the UK. Most of them are —at best— useless, and most of them are staying, and breeding. That alone would destroy any hope of his carefully-constructed “better-society” blueprint.
Hutton prefers just to look down his nose at what he terms “immigration-phobes“. That may cut it with dinner-party attendees wherever Hutton lives (Hampstead? Richmond? Blackheath? Muswell Hill?), but not with the British people. Things are too serious for that, and impact them directly as well as indirectly.
Hutton seems to think that the importation into the UK of a million persons per year, mostly from backward areas of the world, mostly unskilled, often not even speaking English, is either unimportant or actually desirable. He ignores the fact that few are really useful, many (most) parasitic, and not a few actively hostile and/or criminal.
Hutton also uses the term “rightwing“, which is both anachronistic and imprecise; almost meaningless. Disappointing in a former Master of Hertford College, Oxford.
Hutton is a dyed-in-the-wool EU-remainer. He cannot see any alternative to the UK being just a province of an EU bloc. There is at least one alternative which might fly, but he has obviously not considered it (joining with Russia in loose alliance, while keeping amiable relations with the European Union states and even with the USA etc).
The third problem I have with Hutton’s view is that he lays out broadly what he thinks should happen, but without saying how it might happen. How do we get from here to there?

Around 5,000 migrants have crossed the Channel in small boats so far this year – which represents an increase of almost a third on the first quarter last year. pic.twitter.com/twc9IJvBpe
5,000 in the three months of the year which have the roughest seas in the Channel. That probably means anything up to 50,000, maybe even more, by the end of 2024.
That figure is, however, dwarfed by the total of so-called “legal” migration: “high-skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer), “fiances/fiancees”, “family members”, “students”, and the rest.
The two figures together will almost certainly top a million in 2024 alone. Totally unsustainable. British society will come apart by reason of the continuing migration invasion.

The SNP’s cartoon brand of Scottish “nationalism” has no problem with the leaders of two of the three main parties “up there” being of Pakistani origin, has no problem with a future “independent” Scotland (which will probably never exist anyway) being part of the EU and so largely ruled and regulated by that supranational body, no problem (in reality) with Scotland continuing to be a part of NATO (and so not “independent” in terms of military or naval strategy), and no problem with the Scots being slowly or not so slowly replaced in their own land by hordes of “blacks and browns”.
In short, the SNP is both a fake and a political bad joke. Its two previous leaders have faced, or are facing, criminal charges, and its brief time in the sun (from 2015 to 2024) looks set to descend into night.

Transgenderism gains additional protections because it is a male sexual rights movement campaigning for epistemological abolitionism and cultural nihilism – but âhate speechâ laws are illiberal, censorious and designed to chill any discourse and must be repealed in full.
Mirabile dictu…I find myself in agreement with both J.K. Rowling and once-well-known tweeter Robbie Travers… and on the same day.
This is best rebuttal I've read yet to the absurd bien-pensant notion that because Scotlandâs new hate crime law is vague and the guidance around it is contradictory, it probably won't do much. No: this vagueness is the biggest problem https://t.co/chOgWvPBWQ
Vagueness is the enemy of a “society under law”. I myself was convicted in November 2023 of breaching the Communications Act 2003, s.127, a law so unjust and poorly-drafted that the Law Commission has formally recommended its repeal.
I was supposed to have published, on this blog, a number of remarks, comments, and cartoons that were “grossly offensive“, and mostly, it was said, about Jewish behaviour.
Truth was irrelevant. Harm was also irrelevant (the Prosecution and the trial judge both accepted from the start that there was no “victim” in the case, and that no actual “harm” had been done to anyone at all).
The prosecution was procured (God knows how…) by the malicious cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, a very small but very well-funded Jewish-Zionist group that has admitted, both on Twitter/X and its own website, that it has been trying to have me prosecuted on various bases for 7+ years; I think closer to 10 years.
In fact, the “CAA” has had only a notional victory.
Yes, the “CAA” managed to apply political pressure sufficient to make compliant police box-tickers annoy me with pointless and supposedly “voluntary” interviews in 2017 and 2021 (after the “CAA” made completely false accusations against me); yes, the “CAA” also managed to have political pressure applied to the Crown Prosecution Service so that I was eventually prosecuted (in 2023); yes, I have been inconvenienced by the whole process (though never arrested) and, yes, I was later convicted in the magistrates’ court, having defended myself alone and unaided from all those manifestations of Britain’s new poundland police state.
Having said that, the “CAA” has obviously been disappointed at the ultimate result. My sentence (15 days or part-days of so-called “rehabilitation” under the Probation Service, and a costs order amounting to ÂŖ734) was clearly less severe than they wanted. It is a nuisance, and one that inconveniences me, yes, but no more.
The “CAA” has been so miffed at the sentence passed upon me that it and its Jewish supporters have not even tweeted about how I have been sentenced (they did tweet when I was convicted last year). Not one tweet from the “CAA” itself about me since the sentence was handed down, and only a couple (I saw 2 or 3 tweets) from stray frustrated “CAA” supporters saying how “derisory” was my sentence. I myself would not say that: the sentence was and is a nuisance, and has caused minor inconvenience, but not excessive inconvenience.
I suppose that the “CAA” will continue to push the police and CPS (when will the office bods of those two organizations realize that they are being “played”?), but I doubt that the “CAA” will get very far; we shall see.
Anyone wishing to help me out with the Court costs order mentioned can do so via https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J. Thank you. If you cannot donate, please share the link on social media etc. Thank you.
I have already had a few meetings with the rather charming ladies of the Probation Service.
As for the supposedly “grossly offensive” blog posts which founded the November 2023 conviction, they are still extant and capable of being seen. I think that I shall not provide a link to them, in the circumstances, but they are all (all 5 of them) still on the blog, and will remain there indefinitely.
The blog continues to be published daily or near-daily and, while the conviction will, in effect, require me to be more cautious in terms of tone, the material covered will remain much the same, except that I hope to present more from the world of ideas and policy, and perhaps slightly less in terms of mere comment.
The sentencing district judge (on 14 March 2024) refused the Prosecution’s application for a Criminal Behaviour Order against me (which might have restricted my free speech on the blog even further), because it would have been pointless, and because it was so badly-drafted; pathetically poorly, in fact.
I am now under no greater onus, from the strictly legal point of view, than I was when this whole legal and juridical circus started in early 2023.
So there it is…

These fucking lunatic israelis just bombed the Iranian embassy in Damascus
Unbelievable violation of the Vienna convention and Syria and Iran's sovereignty.
Laurence Fox is ideologically incorrect all the same. We have a right to be Europeans in a European ethnostate. Don’t use the language (e.g. “racist scum“) of the enemy.
Laurence Fox is also pro-Israel and pro-Jewish lobby. Sadly misguided.
Laurence Fox has nothing of interest to say; he should retire from politics (insofar as he is in politics in the first place) as gracefully as possible and as soon as possible.

Israel wants to provoke a situation in which the USA will back up Israel and maybe destroy Iran for the Israelis. Tail wags dog…
From today, in Scotland, it is a crime to use what others perceive to be âthreatening or abusiveâ behaviour which stirs up hatred on the basis of "protected characteristics", incl. what's said in your own home & which will go on your criminal record. This is not an April Fools.
I hope that there are Scottish people who will not only oppose these police-state measures but who will also identify the most guilty behind the new repression.

There does not seem much else to say, but the backwash from the storm continues.
“Jack Monroe” herself has gone for the main chance, meaning a general “I’m sort-of sorry but will not/cannot refund anyone“, combined with a plea consisting of “I’m not really guilty of anything, because I am sort-of mentally-disturbed, ex-alcoholic, maybe ex-cocaine abuser, with a huge number of physical and mental problems (self-diagnosed autistic, ADHD, arthritic etc), as well as sort-of lesbian, sort-of ‘trans’, sort-of single mother, as well as a ‘shopaholic’, and anyway have spent all the money I took from people [cheated out of well-meaning mugs]”.
I suppose that the hard-core “Jack Monroe” fans will buy all or some of that, and that the 600+ utter mugs funding her lifestyle via the Patreon website will very likely continue to do that, even as she openly mocks them.
I was surprised about several aspects of the pieceâĻI donât represent the views of the department, but having worked at the Guardian myself – and often enjoyed your writing – Iâd love to know where you were coming from with the pub, the meal, the timeline, the pennies, etc.
I tell you what I am shocked by – the constant pile on by people who probably haven't lifted a finger to help the poorest and most disadvantaged in our society.
Tweeter “@cashandcarrots” is another one who seems to believe that “Jack Monroe” has done things that “help the poorest and most disadvantaged in society” rather than nothing except help herself (literally).
I used to work at a charity that did rehabilitation for people with drug and alcohol issues and also extensive work with people who had a huge variety of mental health needs.
*Despite* all of those, look at what Jack Monroe has achieved and done. Could you have done it?
“@cashandcarrots””Michelle” really cannot accept that she and others have been conned by a cunning and manipulative woman entirely out for herself. Even has to pretend that one of the staunchest critics of “Jack Monroe”, “@TruthSignalUK” is somehow part of a [non-existent] “trolling” conspiracy (why would he be, though?).
Tons which is why I know so much about her and foodbanks. I don't have emotions about it. Just objectives that require clearing out enablers who hopefully we're not brought up to assist grifts.
This really isn't a case of 'burn the witch', Monroe has had ample time to deliver on her promises. Instead, she tells lie after lie, gas-lights ppl asking questions and monsters those who call her out.
That Bleasdale person tweets all sorts of rubbish. His tweet about the “Bootstrap Cook” is a good example of entirely false logic, i.e. presenting a false choice.
“Relentless advocacy for people on the breadline“? Not really. She mostly tweets and sends other online messages about herself, mixed with a bit of typical Twitter “I hate the Tories” stuff (I feel similarly about the “Conservatives”, to put it simplistically; but I also “hate” the “Labour” hypocrites). “Jack Monroe” also constantly messages or tweets with a subtext of “please send me money“.
Weird isnât it? Thatâs the legacy of social media. Everyone HAS to take a side on every single issue. Itâs a bit pathetic really.
Thatâs what i mean. Most people on here canât see past their own âsideâ I too am left of center and loathe the Tories; but that doesnât change the fact that Monroe is a middle class rich girl cosplaying poor for her own financial gain
— DearPrudence đŋđžđ (@fromthenorth66) January 8, 2023
I wonder whether the loonies and mugs sending money regularly to “Jack Monroe” will ever wake up to the fact that she despises them and mocks them?
As for the “Bootstrap Cook” herself, what are her talents? Not cooking, that’s for sure, looking at the swill that seems to be the bulk of her cuisine.
Paul, you kinda miss the point. Yes she has done good previously- no doubt. But that has now turned into a grift. She doesn't care about the 600+ who gave her money every month, whilst she was getting drunk and spending ÂŖ1200 on furniture she didn't want or need
There is nothing wrong with being well-meaning, as tweeter “@PaulOnBooks” seems to be, but that has to go in tandem with an objective outlook. We are enjoined to be “as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves“. Both.
Grifter gets royally rumbled, confirming everything we suspected. Grifterâs cultists still wonât accept it and make up increasingly embarrassing excuses for said grifter.
It's quite remarkable how all these traits function as a handy excuse for actions which impact negatively on others, but directly benefit her, isn't it?

So, as a doctor, what is your take on the truthfulness (or otherwise) of Jack claiming to have been drinking a bottle and a half of whiskey AND popping 40 tramadols a day at the same time?
Good advice is never, or only very rarely, to trust a medical doctor who is primarily a socio-political activist.
If I were asking whether it was theoretically plausible for someone to drink, I donât know, 20 bottles of whisky a day, or something equally absurd – would the same apply?
That Wonky account was tweeting me in defence of JM for ages at 4am the other night. The next morning JM is tweeting about having been up at 4am stressing out. It did seem weird.
“Jack Monroe” has a number, perhaps a large number, of Twitter “sock accounts”, many of which tweet “supportive” messages to her main account. Her level of dishonesty is incredible.
Was claiming a bottle and a half of whisky a day and 40 tramadol your idea too? Anyone with an ounce of sense knows this is just another one of your fantasies. Your problem isnât addiction itâs delusions.
I never gave Jack Monroe any money, but I was taken in by her for a while. There were always some red flags – for me, mostly that her recipes didn't consider time costs. And it was hard to believe that her loving middle class family wouldn't help her at all. https://t.co/REsKIIGYPd
Itâs a tragic irony that Christopher would most likely have taken his lead from the likes of Dawkins and Sam Harris and got the last three years completely wrong. https://t.co/3JQPo1xbXG
By the way, the journalist who attacked me for trying to share the evidence back then is the same disgraceful idiot who wrote the article in today's paper.
For those of you who can't read the article, it's a gushing torrent of dangerous, Bill Gates-sponsored nonsense about benefits still outweighing risks and myocarditis being a common symptom of 'Covid'. @sarahknapton is an absolute embarrassment to journalism, science and ethics.
They have been forced to print 50pct of the truth 2 years later as every man and his dog knows about the carnage that these shots are causing. The latest excess data showing accelerating damage may have triggered this pathetic little article.
This is a long interview with me but it covers a lot of ground and I explain in some detail why I've taken the stance that I have. As well as laying out where I think this is all going. Very nicely put together by the delightful @PlanetUplifthttps://t.co/qm8uxbEoGe
Argentina is a lovely, exciting country with a bad political history. These two â Evita & Juan PerÃŗn, commemorated here in Ushuaia, â helped it on its way down economically. In 1900 Argentina was richer than Australia or Sweden. Now its economy is smaller than Irelandâs. pic.twitter.com/TO3fwbB0mM
Whatever one may think of Peron and his wives, the fact is that political leadership is only one factor, albeit perhaps the most important, in whether a country is rich or poor (either overall as a country and notionally per capita, or in terms of how much that wealth is actually spread among the population).
Argentina was once a very wealthy country, certainly. Uruguay too. In fact, right up to the 1950s, Uruguay was one of the most prosperous countries in the world. A number of factors changed that.
There again, between 1918 and 1939, Estonia, Latvia and Czechoslovakia were very prosperous, and the citizens were, per head, much better off than the average of those in, say, the UK, France, or most other states. That changed mainly though not solely because of political changes and invasions, notably the Second World War and Soviet invasion (1940, and later 1944, in the case of the Pribaltika states; 1945 in the case of Czechoslovakia), Germany having also effectively occupied them during most of the war years.
Cuba was, economically, once a vibrant economy, albeit suffused with corruption and inequality. Castro’s socialist regime killed the economy. His decision to replace mixed farming with, mostly, a sugar monoculture (in the 1960s) worked up to a point, so long as the Soviet Union paid over the odds for sugar (and whatever else Cuba could export) but resulted in total collapse when the hidden subsidy was removed in the early 1990s.
Likewise, Cuba’s socialist experiment resulted in an end to development in the residential housing sector. Today, Havana and much of Cuba is falling to pieces, and people try to grow their own food if they can.
Some people say that the Cuban system is good re. medicine and education. “Education” in the basic sense perhaps, though obviously rigid in terms of what can and cannot be taught. As to medicine, perhaps so, again in a basic way, though.
The question is whether the supposed advantages of such a system are enough to compensate, both for the poor economy largely the result of that system and also for the harshness of the system politically and in terms of civil rights.
Russia before 1914 was arguably the fastest-growing economy in the world. War (lost war) and then civil war and political upheavals, followed by the socialist system —especially under Stalin from about 1928— weakened, and also distorted the economy. Collectivization, prioritization of heavy industry etc.
I recall reading the memoirs of the self-publicizing Jew Armand Hammer [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armand_Hammer]; Hammer— Witness to History. He operated businesses in agreement with the Soviet Government during the 1920s, including a concession to produce pencils.
Hammer discovered that the best pencils were produced in Bavaria. He imported to Moscow both machines and German technicians.
On returning to the Soviet Union in the 1970s or 1980s (I forget; 1970s, I think), Hammer was taken to the pencil factory, still operating. He discovered that nothing had changed: the machines were still working, a few of the original workers, now in their sixties, were still there; even his own old desk was standing unchanged in the same place.
An example of the lack of dynamic change in a socialist system.
Having said that, that same system put the first satellite into space, and created some products and programmes not seen even in the finance-capitalist West. Priorities? As Goering said in the 1930s, “Guns before butter“. That is, of course, a political choice.
Political direction is the single most important factor governing the prosperity of a country, but there are others. Where would the oil states of the Middle East be without demand for oil (and gas)? Back riding camels, almost certainly.
In their case, they have money in vast amounts despite their political and religious backwardness. There again, Europeans (and Americans, who are basically European in origin) discovered the oil and gas, extracted it, knew how to refine it, and also exported it to European and other markets. The Arabs only profited because they were there, and because they were on the cusp of the two contending Cold War cultures, neither part of the Soviet world nor the Western world.
Perhaps the best way to put it is that political leadership can assist an economy but cannot create it, whereas the wrong political direction can certainly ruin an economy, especially if that direction is too rigid. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_threefolding.
Peak Twitter? Some “IT bod” from darkest Northamptonshire, one James Drury, tries to trash food blogger Andy Lynes, who is, inter alia, a Masterchef semi-finalist…
Exactly. Families living in conditions so poor that their homes are literally killing them really aren't going to be sawing up tin cans in order to make egg rings. What even is an egg ring anyway?

Please donât slur autistic people by suggesting we are so useless and unreliable that we would happily defraud people and gigglingly spend every penny on âwhateverâ. There are enough negative stereotypes about us, thanks.
If youâre useless with money then maybe youâre just âuseless with moneyâ. Not every single personality trait can be attributed to having a developmental condition. Jack pathologically avoids taking responsibility by doing this.
Excellent point!! That The Poors need to be 'thrifty' while Jack Monroe is buying multiple ÂŖ300 sideboards really shouldn't be lost on people! She's promoted by media as one of answers during 'cost of living' crisis but readily admits she can't manage money. Outrageous really.
Definitely. Yes! She's a media creation who became an austerity celebrity during economic crisis. How and why is what I'm interested in. (My interest in her is the bizarre use of Twitter to say 'fuck you' etc when people's concerns have been proved right. Grim soap opera.)
So “Jack Monroe” cannot, by her own admission (or claim) “manage money”, she cannot cook (as far as I can see), certainly not to any kind of professional standard, and she has cheated hundreds, probably thousands, of people out of money that many can ill-afford to lose, yet the msm is still promoting her! As someone who can advise “the poor”, at that! Why?
