Early thought

Just saw a film (available freely on Twitter/X, but apparently banned on YouTube): Europa the Last Battle, Blitzkrieg edition.

Brilliant.

I saw it via the Sophie Meaden Twitter/X account. While I do not agree with everything she posts, her Twitter/X account is one of the best at present.

Wikipedia is, on such topics, infested by vandalistic editing (by “the usual suspects”), but this is what it has to say about the original video: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa:_The_Last_Battle.

[“Let’s address the elephant in the room. We don’t have a two tier justice system, we have an anti-White justice system. “Two tier” just dilutes what’s going on to a degree. I have been guilty of using it myself too, but I’ve been doing some self reflecting over it. Start calling out discrimination against the natives and Europeans. No more anti-White hatred of any kind should be tolerated in our government and institutions. White lives matter.“]

When I visited that country, in 1977, it was called Rhodesia, was white European-ruled, and was, despite a two-front war against black African (pseudo-) “nationalists” on —and within— the borders, a fully-functioning, European-style country, where everything worked.

We keep reading Twitter/X or newspaper readers’ comments to the effect that “Ukraine is not our business, and we should keep out“, and I agree wholeheartedly with those sentiments, but one has to realize that the governments of the UK, France, Germany etc are not really British, French, or German governments, but NWO/ZOG puppet governments, and that that is why we keep seeing those puppet governments funnelling arms, money etc to “Ukraine” (more precisely, to the Kiev regime).

The same goes for the repeated proposals to deploy British and other troops (officially— a few are already there) to Ukraine.

Talking point

Nothing to do with the 2020-2022 fake “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic, incidentally. This has been a long-running problem in the UK.

The NHS and the allied problem of adult social care must be rethought, and action taken. It just does not cut it to treat the NHS as a a holy object of quasi-religious devotion, or to reference the profit-driven American healthcare system, or the deficiencies of British healthcare before the NHS was established in 1948.

The NHS is merely one example of how Britain’s many old-established institutions are “living off their hump”, and their once-high reputations. NHS, police, courts and legal system (and legal professions), armed forces, monarchy, SIS/MI6, schools, universities, BBC, the degraded Church of England; you name it.

Bardot was a brave fighter for both animal welfare and the future of European race, culture, and society. The Jews and Muslims attacked her, and procured her prosecution, partly because of her opposition to their cruel halal and kosher slaughter practices.

Incidentally, the BBC News weasellers, this morning, claimed that many French people were disturbed by her socio-political views. I doubt it. Mainly Jewish and Muslim inhabitants of France, I dare say.

Time for the Kiev regime junta to get rid of Zelensky, send him to Florida, Israel, or perdition, then to sue for peace. Create a genuine Ukrainian state within the bulk of Ukrainian territory to the west of the Dnieper, with its capital in Lvov. Kiev and Odessa to become demilitarized “free cities”. Russia to rule all Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and also a narrow strip of territory along the whole of the Black Sea coast.

Peace that will be sustainable, in short.

If Turkey were to become a nuclear power, Israel would truly be doomed. The Turks already have massive conventional force and numbers at their disposal.

Another stunning opinion poll. Would translate to a Commons with about 401 Reform MPs (massive majority), 56 LibDems (thus making the LibDems the official Opposition, just about), 53 Greens (making them significant at last), 46 SNP, 28 Lab, and 28 Cons [etc].

[“If you’re not from the UK you should know that in the last 48 hours a teacher who showed his politics students a Trump video was referred to an “anti-terrorism” programme while the Labour government is celebrating the “return” of an Egyptian extremist who endorsed killing Jews, “colonialists” and police.”]

Puzzling, and it even occurred to me that that Egyptian might be an (ex-) agent of SIS, and that that might explain the long and consistent efforts to have him released by the Egyptian authorities, but then UK government ministers would, presumably, not be making such a noise about it. Very puzzling, especially as Starmer-stein “leads” a Labour Friends of Israel regime.

I should imagine that the individual in question is more than glad to be released from an Egyptian prison, whatever the truth of it all. I feared that I myself might be “banged up” in one when I was in that country in 1998: see

Surely that Egyptian supposed “extremist” is not being welcomed by the Starmer-stein government of sinister clowns simply in the hope that the UK-resident Muslims (a large part of Labour’s core vote now) will stick with Labour’s electoral candidates, rather than defecting to Corbyn’s “Your Party”, to Galloway’s “Workers’ Party”, or to independent Islamist candidates?

That seems facile, but I admit that I am, for once, puzzled.

Madness. Or is it planned, deliberate, on some level?

Notice. Keep “noticing”…

Two thoughts come to mind. First, that Turkey is increasing its down-the-line military capabilities rather rapidly.

Secondly, that it seems that, in the world of general aviation, freight aviation, and airliners for passengers, the pilot may be on the way out. Pilots will not even be able to retrain to work as bus or taxi drivers, because those vehicles will all be robotic and computerized as well.

God knows how crushingly heavy will be the eventual karmic burden carried by Israel and “World Jewry”.

Or does that mean that, whichever side comes out on top, the USA (or NWO/ZOG) will benefit?

Today a narrow win over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 5/10; I got 6/10. A couple were guesses, and I did not know the answers to questions 5, 7, 9, and 10.

The Kiev-regime fake “state” of Ukraine is rotten in every way. As for Denmark, well, everyone knows the famous comment in Hamlet

I have to agree with Goodwin. Were Farage to accomplish a tenth of what Hitler or Mussolini did before the Second World War, he would be able to feel proud of his record in office (assuming that Farage ever holds senior political office).

“Boris”-idiot is a clown, albeit a sinister one. Only a very decadent country would allow such a person to be an ordinary MP, let alone Cabinet minister or —a fortiori— Prime Minister. I said all that on the blog at the relevant time(s) and also —prior to being expelled from Twitter in 2018 at the instigation of a conspiratorial pack of Jews— on my then Twitter account.

Jewish hypocrite Kamm is only a “free speech absolutist” in his own mind, or superficially; he simply prefers to have speech censored quietly. He is very odd, and has tweeted against me in the past. See also the following post, in which I examine the links between and among those with mental conditions, Jew-Zionists, and “antifa” types (some individuals are all three) :

For air defense, this is not a difficult target, which was well studied back in the Soviet Union era. The other thing is that they can be armed with nuclear warheads, and that, excuse me, is a completely different level of combat — the OSU can install all sorts of things there,” said Alexey Zhuravlyov. The State Duma deputy and chairman of the Rodina party says it is well known that the USA always retains control over these systems even before the improved Tomahawk missile and never hands it over to NATO allies.”]

Qatar (which I visited twice, in 2001 and 2008) is more or less a “fake state”. Huge natural gas reserves, unlimited money, but its population is composed of 80% or even 90% temporary expats, and its financial power is not matched by any military power to speak of. Turkey is different, a major regional power and potential or near-world power, with huge and powerful armed forces.

An old saying says, ironically or satirically, “Jews must live [somehow]…”

Incidentally, Morgan McSweeney, though Irish and without any obvious Jewish connection, went to Israel when aged about 21 or so:

“[McSweeney] immigrated to London in 1994 aged 17, initially working on building sites and later attempting university, though he dropped out within 12 months.[9][7] He spent several months living in the Sarid kibbutz in Israel in the late 1990s.[10]

There it is again. The Jewish/Israeli/Labour Friends of Israel connection that runs through Starmer-Labour like Brighton Rock. MOSSAD, Aman, Epstein, the “Maxwells”, Mandelson, Peter Kyle, McSweeney (etc).

McSweeney’s wife is also Labour, MP for some place in Scotland.

Oh, that’s right. I had forgotten that Peter Kyle, MP for Hove and Portslade, and friendly with both Peter Mandelson and Ivor Caplin, is now Secretary of State for Business and Industry.

Thought for the day

The so-called “Glorious 12th”, start of the grouse season. A “sport” of which I disapprove, so good luck to all grouse today.

There are those who claim that shooting helps conservation of a number of species [see, e.g. https://www.sykeshousefarm.co.uk/news_stories/why-grouse-is-becoming-more-exclusive-than-ever/] but I feel that there are other ways to do that. In the end, I just feel that to take pleasure in shooting a creature, a warm-blooded one at that, is morally wrong.

In the years 2002-2008, when I was a barrister based in Exeter and (2002-2006) living on the Cornwall/Devon border, prime shooting territory, several of my colleagues in chambers shot. I recall one incident when one member of chambers shot a pheasant which then fell on the head of either his wife or someone else’s wife (I think the latter), the lady in question being knocked out as a consequence.

I cannot now recall whether the shooter was or was not the person who later had an affair with the lady in question, who later left the one barrister for the other (causing a big kefuffle in chambers, as might be imagined; however, this being England and not Texas or the Caucasus, no-one opened fire on anyone else, and no blood was spilt).

Awkward, and I quite liked all three members of chambers involved (one involved simply as another gun on the fateful day; the lady involved was not a barrister, though I think that I did meet her once).

In fact, as someone who does not interfere with other people if it can be avoided, and because in those years I spent half my time at my then home in Finistere, or elsewhere, I was apparently the only member of Chambers for some time unaware of the personal upset that had occurred (though I had heard about the earlier, pheasant-caused, injury).

For once, I agree almost entirely with everything Andrew Neil says there.

“They” dislike any of their activities being exposed to the light of day. Not only in the Middle East; in the UK and elsewhere as well.

Terrible. I spent several days at Canakkale town in 2001, having driven from England (and then on to Mediterranean Turkey), a more difficult drive at that time than it now is, Turkey, in the past quarter-century, having constructed all sorts of motorways and bridges where none previously existed. Also, most of the states of Eastern Europe were then not in the EU or the Schengen Zone.

Interesting. Quite a coup, to get hold of the diary of someone as well-guarded as that.

The Jewish/Israel lobby, though very active even in the 1980s and 1970s, was not then the powerful and corrupting force it is in 2025. Not just in politics and law, either. You see the cultural aspects of it in magazines, newspapers, and on radio and TV etc.

Ukraine news

In what may prove to be a major breakthrough for Vladimir Putin, Russian sabotage and reconnaissance units punched through exposed defences in eastern Ukraine, slipping as far as six miles behind the front line in just 48 hours, according to battlefield reports.

Kyiv has diverted special forces units to confront the insurgents on the ground in an attempt to prevent any more of Ukraine falling under Russia’s control before the summit in Alaska.

The location, near Dobropillya in Donetsk, is strategically significant. If Moscow’s forces are able to establish a foothold, the breach could allow Russia to cut off the city of Kramatorsk, one of the most vital strongholds in the Donbas still under Kyiv’s control.

If the city falls, it would give Putin almost full control over the Donbas and strengthen his negotiating power when bargaining over Ukraine’s fate with the Trump administration.

Israeli war crimes. Whether the overall war on civilians be called or labelled a “genocide” or not is almost immaterial. The cruelty and/or sadistic brutality of the Israeli Jews (and that of the Jew-Zionist support cabals in Europe, North America etc) speaks for itself.

Rubio is a staunch supporter of Israel. He is a co-sponsor of a Senate resolution expressing objection to the UN Security Council Resolution 2334, which condemned Israeli settlement building in the occupied Palestinian territories as a violation of international law.[328] Rubio condemned Hamas’s October 2023 attack on Israel and expressed his support for Israel and its right to self-defense.[329] He called for the complete eradication of Hamas in Gaza.[330] When asked if there was a way to stop Hamas without causing massive civilian casualties in Gaza,[331] Rubio said Israel cannot coexist “with these savages…. They have to be eradicated.”[332]

[“An Israeli official told the Jerusalem Post: “Turkey’s agreement to purchase 40 Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets isn’t a game-changing threat to our Air Force. The Typhoon is a capable but not superior aircraft compared to our fighter jets. But it’s a clear and worrying signal that Turkey is accelerating its arms buildup in a way that could eventually challenge Israel’s military edge in the region. The deal isn’t an immediate threat, but still a headache for Israel”.]

This is the sort of thing that matters, not well-meaning people holding up placards in the UK to protest against the evil actions of the Israeli Jews in Gaza or the West Bank.

Eventually, both Turkey and Iran will have the means available to stamp on Israel and kill it off, very likely, notwithstanding Israel’s nuclear capabilities. Iran’s power rests, at long distance, on missiles, presently conventional, but perhaps eventually nuclear; Turkey’s power rests mainly on very powerful, and becoming more powerful, conventional forces; millions of soldiers, 2,500 tanks, and ever-more-powerful military air fleets.

I fully expect the Jews to be driven out of the Middle East eventually, but that will not, of course, be the final chapter.

Does Trump really think it effective grand strategy to threaten Russia, China, and Brazil (among other states) at the same time?

From my perspective, Corbyn is not really “antisemitic” at all, or only marginally.

Wow” indeed…if that opinion poll is accurate (and it may be), Reform would get 436 MPs at a general election (a Commons majority of 110), Labour 78, LibDems 55, SNP 37, Cons 15, Greens 4 (etc).

Any result like that would certainly spell the end of the long-lived Con Party, would knock the stuffing out of Labour, and would write Reform UK a blank cheque (subject only to the House of Lords, where Reform has no peers at all, out of 836 peers at present. However, Farage could just create hundreds of new Reform peers, or simply abolish the Lords).

Among the hundreds of Labour MPs who would be booted out would be Stephen Kinnock, Angela Rayner, Dan Jarvis, Jess Phillips, Ed Miliband, Luke Akehurst, Stephen Timms, Andrew Gwynne, Bridget Phillipson, Liz Kendall, Nia Griffith, Maria Eagle, Angela Eagle, Lucy Powell, Yvette Cooper, Anna Turley, Paul Waugh, Sarah Champion, Kim Leadbeater, Gareth Snell, Torsten Bell, Emma Reynolds, Wes Streeting etc.

Interestingly, Starmer-stein might survive, but no doubt would resign as Labour leader. He would not be interested in staying on anyway.

Prominent Cons in the bin would include Dunce Duncan Smith, Mel Stride (the Con “moderates'” great white hope), Kemi Badenoch (present Con leader and “great non-white hopeless”), Suella Braverman, Jesse Norman, Oliver Dowden, Julian Lewis, Desmond Swayne (my own local MP, and entirely useless, though I do not disagree with him on everything), Jewish-lobby puppet Robert Jenrick, Rishi Sunak, Mark Francois, Andrew Rosindell, the deadhead Gavin Williamson, “chocolate soldier” Tom Tugendhat, Nick Timothy, James Cleverly, Alex Burghart, David Davis, Jewish-lobby minor puppet Alec Shelbrooke etc.

Some LibDems and Greens would also be binned, but none of them is of the slightest consequence.

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

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

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

It is losing (by death, serious injury, and capture) about 1,000 a day, which is probably 2,000 a day if you take into account desertions. It is, therefore, hardly surprising that there are no volunteers any more, and that the regime has to use press-gangs to kidnap people off the street.

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

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

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

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

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

Historical note: Father Denis Fahey

Denis FaheyC.S.Sp. (3 July 1883 – 21 January 1954) was an Irish Catholic priest. Fahey promoted the Catholic social teaching of Christ the King, and was involved in Irish politics through his organisation Maria Duce. Fahey believed that “the world must conform to Our Divine Lord, not He to it”, defending the theological concept of the Mystical Body of Christ. This often saw Fahey in conflict with systems which he viewed as promoting “naturalism” against Catholic order – particularly communismfreemasonry and rabbinic Judaism.[1] His writings were deeply anti-Semitic, Fahey stating that “we must combat Jewish efforts to permeate the world with naturalism. In that sense, as there is only one divine plan for order in the world, every sane thinker must be an anti-Semite”.[2][3]” [Wikipedia]

Father Fahey contended that “of 59 members of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1935, 56 were Jews, and the remaining three were married to Jews.” [Wikipedia].

In economic views, Fahey was a critic of the Lockean liberal capitalist system and what he regarded as the “social good” being made subordinate to the needs of the market. He pointed to usury being contrary to Catholic social teaching and spoke out against the newspaper industry and its power to form public opinion, he claimed that finance capitalism had come to dominate politics and economics, which it was meant to be subordinate to. He criticised “the unlimited competition, unscrupulous underselling and feverish advertising of the present day” and opined that capitalism led to extreme inequality, “ruthless, unchecked […] tended towards the concentration of capital in the hands of the relatively few.[33]

Fahey also blamed capitalism “with its excessive individualism and uncontrolled seeking for profit”, for causing a backlash which naturally attracted many people to embracing communism.” [Wikipedia]

In terms of socio-economics, it seems that Father Fahey was close to the views expressed by such as G.K. Chesterton and his literary creation Father Brown, as well as many in the interwar period of the 1920s and 1930s who were generally in the milieu of the aftermath of the Arts and Crafts movement in the UK.

As for “stabbed“, something even worse is more likely.

In a village in Donegal! Just shows how far the ripples of the migration-invasion have reached. In that little Irish village (2,600 inhabitants), 70+ of the bastards are imposed by the System. The invaders will be parasites—at absolute best; at worst (and that is far more likely) they will be criminals, scavengers and predators, who may well also be enemies of European people and our whole culture and way of life.

[“I’ve never seen a Prime Minister gaslight on this scale before. Labour have decriminalised illegal migration. Labour have presided over record numbers of illegal migrants Labour have expanded the use of hotels for illegal migrants, costing you £2 billion a year. Labour are forcing British taxpayers to subsidise big business to outbid the British people in the housing market so they can prioritise people who break our laws. And Labour are literally forcing British workers to pay more tax than Indian workers … in Britain.”]

Starmer-stein and his Labour Friends of Israel Cabinet are complete fakes, and treacherous. His “big announcement” on immigration will accomplish very little even to slow mass invasion of these islands, let alone stop the influx. As for getting rid of those already here, and their offspring— forget it.

[“The man who decriminalised illegal migration, removed age checks, gave tax exemptions to foreign workers, encouraged migration from India, expanded hotels for illegal migrants, removed the only deterrent we had, sent boat numbers soaring to 50% higher than where they were last year, is using taxpayer money to prioritise foreigners over Brits in the private housing market, and liberalised immigration from Afghanistan is currently claiming he is “regaining control of the immigration system”. Gaslighter-in-Chief.“]

The Overton Window is shifting, visibly. I hope, though, that the voters of the UK see through the fakery of Starmer-stein and his cronies. Vote (at present) Reform, break up the System as it now is, based on the fake rivalry of Con and Lab; then social-nationalism can take off.

When I started at the English Bar in the early 1990s, I was not infrequently briefed by solicitors acting for the PKK. Nothing political in my being briefed, though— I simply got one brief, won the case, then got others off the back of that, as commonly happens at the Bar. As a matter of fact, I tend to favour the Turks (or did, before the secular legacy of Ataturk started to be eroded).

The PKK is apparently leaving guerrilla warfare behind; it has therefore decided to follow in the footsteps of many another “terrorist” “army”, inter alia the IRA, ETA, FARC etc.

That ignorant woman scribbler, Allison Pearson, makes common cause with the worst of the Jewish lobby (“Zionist lobby”, Israel lobby” etc), the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], and its self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”, a proven social media troll and maker of false accusations to police etc, who can be informally called “Slitherman”.

Allison Pearson is supporting the very lobby that is behind most of the attacks on free speech and freedom of expression in this country.

As for that Julian Foulkes fellow, the retired policeman, if he —like scribbler Allison Pearson—supports Israel and the Jewish lobby in the UK, he must be absolutely asinine.

Exactly.

“UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”] was behind my 2016 disbarment. Its membership and support cadre aligns closely with that of the malicious/evil “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”.

Not just because of the “little boats”. Because of the “legal” immigration invasion too.

It goes even beyond that. The discontent is also by reason of the whole multicultural/multiracial society which, for decades, has been slowly killing our more civilized British/European society.

Indeed, the burgeoning popular discontent goes beyond even the cultural/racial factors, and includes the fact that society is becoming more stressed, but with fewer material and other rewards for most British people. Also, the perception, largely if not entirely true, that “nothing works properly any more“.

Running on empty, like most of Britain’s institutions.

Deutschland erwache!

England awake too!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I just have no time for him.

Lucy Powell [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Powell]— just another System drone who has never had a non-political (System-political) job.

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

Late thoughts on the recent by-election and local elections

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

In 1943, amid the devastating final years of World War II, the Berlin Zoo was heavily bombed, leaving much of the zoo in ruins and many of its animals in grave danger. Among the survivors was a Shoe-billed stork, an unusual and majestic bird recognized for its unique, shoe-shaped bill and stately demeanor. With the zoo’s facilities destroyed, the stork found an unlikely refuge in a nurse’s bathroom, a small but safe haven where it was cared for during the chaos of war. The nurse’s bathroom became a sanctuary for the bird, symbolizing the compassion and determination of those who worked to protect the zoo’s animals despite the dire circumstances. The stork’s survival depended on the care it received in this improvised setting, where it was fed and tended to with limited resources. This poignant scene of a wild, exotic bird in a domestic, human space emphasized the extraordinary lengths people went to preserve life during a time when destruction seemed all-encompassing. The survival of the Shoe-billed stork and its temporary shelter in the nurse’s bathroom became a powerful symbol of resilience and hope amidst the horrors of war. While much of the zoo was destroyed and many animals were lost, stories like this highlight the small acts of care and humanity that endured even in the darkest hours. The stork’s journey is a testament to the enduring bond between humans and animals and serves as a reminder of the fragments of hope that can emerge even in times of overwhelming devastation.

Thus proving, yet again, that “Boris”-idiot never does his homework…(and always talks rubbish)…

The subterranean city of Derinkuyu, located in Cappadocia region of Türkiye, an extraordinary historical site with the capacity to house an estimated 20,000 to 60,000 people, including their livestock and supplies. Its discovery occurred unexpectedly in 1963 when a homeowner accidentally broke through a wall in his basement, unveiling an ancient and intricate underground structure hidden for centuries. Derinkuyu is an impressive multi-level complex, descending over 200 feet below the surface and consisting of at least 18 levels, though only a portion of it has been fully excavated. The city features an array of functional spaces, including living quarters, kitchens, storage areas, wine and oil presses, stables, and even chapels and schools. Ventilation shafts and a sophisticated water system ensured the city’s inhabitants could survive underground for extended periods. Defensive mechanisms, such as heavy stone doors that could be rolled into place, protected the city from invaders. Historians and archaeologists believe Derinkuyu was initially constructed by the Phrygians or Hittites in the early centuries BCE, though it was later expanded and used by various groups, including early Christians, as a refuge from persecution or attacks. Its design reflects the ingenuity and resilience of the civilizations that relied on such cities for survival during times of conflict or environmental challenges. The discovery of Derinkuyu has spurred interest in Cappadocia’s extensive network of underground cities, many of which remain unexplored. These ancient marvels continue to captivate researchers and visitors alike, shedding light on the innovative ways humans adapted to their environment and safeguarded their communities.

Recruits to the castle-convents scattered across Teutonic territory primarily hailed from Germanic regions such as Franconia, Thuringia, the Rhine, and other German territories. These knights, often aristocrats but also comprising lower-ranking members, were stationed in commanderies housing anywhere from 10 to 80 individuals. Similar to other military orders, recruits pledged monastic vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Joining offered prospects of spiritual rewards, adventure, career advancement, and even basic amenities like regular meals and shelter. While German settlers were permitted entry, they typically served as priests or half-brethren. Each castle-convent also accommodated local crossbowmen, as well as non-combatants like servants and craftsmen. Although officially international, the order predominantly drew recruits from German lands. Membership numbers varied, influenced by battles and territorial shifts. For instance, Prussia counted 700 members in 1379 AD, 400 in 1450 AD, 160 in 1513 AD, and 55 in 1525 AD. The total knightly roster likely never exceeded around 1,300. The order’s revenue stemmed from wartime spoils, captured territories, trade, land rents, and donations in cash, goods, or land. Some brethren paid an entry fee, while taxes on local populations were imposed in Teutonic territories by the 15th century AD. As recruitment challenges grew, the order increasingly relied on mercenaries, necessitating financial support. Commanderies not only offered training, residences, and retirement options but also extended aid to local communities through hospices, hospitals, schools, and cemeteries. Additionally, the order constructed churches, providing ongoing maintenance and fostering artistic endeavors for embellishment.

I once knew a German lady from East Prussia, one of whose several historically-distinguished ancestors was a Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights in the Middle Ages.

The Lion Man – An Ice Age Masterpiece : The Lion Man is a masterpiece. Sculpted with great originality, virtuosity and technical skill from mammoth ivory, this 40,000 year-old image is 31cm tall. It has the head of a cave lion with a partly human body. He stands upright, perhaps on tiptoes, legs apart and arms to the sides of a slender, cat-like body with strong shoulders like the hips and thighs of a lion. His gaze, like his stance, is powerful and directed at the viewer. The details of his face show he is attentive, he is watching and he is listening. He is powerful, mysterious and from a world beyond ordinary nature. He is the oldest known representation of a being that does not exist in physical form but symbolises ideas about the supernatural.

Found in a cave in what is now southern Germany in 1939, the Lion Man makes sense as part of a story that might now be called a myth. The wear on his body caused by handling suggests that he was passed around and rubbed as part of a narrative or ritual that would explain his appearance and meaning. It is impossible to know what that story was about or whether he was deity, an avatar to the spirit world, part of a creation story or a human whose experiences on a journey through the cosmos to communicate with spirits caused this transformation. Obviously, the story involved humans and animals. Lion Man is made from a mammoth tusk, the largest animal in the environment of that time and depicts the fiercest predator, a lion, now extinct, that was about 30 centimetres taller than a modern African lion and had no mane. Distinct from other animals through their use of tools and fire, humans were nonetheless dependent on some animals for food while needing to protect themselves from predators. Perhaps this hybrid helped people to come to terms with their place in nature on a deeper, religious level or in some way to transcend or reshape it.

Archaeological discoveries in other caves in this region include small sculptures as shown in the British Museum’s 2013 exhibition Ice Age art: arrival of the modern mind. They were found in caves with large quantities of stone tools and animal bones that indicate people lived in the shelter of the daylight areas of these sites for repeated periods of time.

Stadel Cave, where the Lion Man was found, is different. It faces north and does not get the sun. It is cold and the density of debris accumulated by human activities is much less than at other sites. This was not a good place to live. Lion Man was found in a dark inner chamber, carefully put away in the darkness with only a few perforated arctic fox teeth and a cache of reindeer antlers nearby. These characteristics suggest that Stadel Cave was only used occasionally as a place where people would come together around a fire to share a particular understanding of the world articulated through beliefs, symbolised in sculpture and acted out in rituals.

Lion Man is the oldest known evidence for religious beliefs and Stadel Cave suggests that believing and belonging have a deep history crucial to human societies and originating long before writing. In 2017, UNESCO acknowledged Stadel Cave and other Swabian localities as World Heritage Sites of importance to all humanity and now Ulm Museum has loaned this important sculpture to the British Museum for the exhibition.”

The candidate for Chancellor of Germany Alice Weidel has called for the restoration of relations and economic ties with Russia The election program of Alternative for Germany includes points about the need to lift sanctions on Russia to allow free trade. Additionally, according to members of the AfD, it is necessary to repair the Nord Stream pipeline, which supplied Russian gas to Europe. “We want to end the sanctions policy, which primarily harms our country,” Weidel said. She reminded that just two years ago, Germany was buying cheap natural gas from Russia through Nord Stream, but now the country has “the highest energy prices in the world.”

The AfD is not fully social-national but is still clearly the best choice for German voters at present. Deutschland erwache!

I thought, when he was not nominated (plainly at his own request) for a fake peerage that Johnson, aka “Boris”-idiot, had it in mind to stand for leader again.

Were Johnson to get some sympathetic Con MP to stand down in his favour, Johnson might well win a safe-seat by-election.

Why would any MP do that? In return for a promise of getting a peerage later. That would not require Johnson to be Prime Minister, because the Leader of the Opposition also has peerage-nomination rights.

Johnson would then have to wait (probably) until November 2025 before at least 15% of Con MPs send in letters of no-confidence in “Carpetbagger Kemi” Badenoch. That means 18 MPs, as matters stand. That would happen. Con MPs know that Kemi Badenoch is a total turn-off for most voters, sure to lose the next general election and, thus, a number of seats.

Then, all Johnson would need would be a small number of MPs (in the 2024 leadership election, the number was 10 MPs) to nominate him as a candidate (quite likely possible).

Opinion polls of 2024 Con-voting people show that Johnson is far more popular (despite his evident unfitness to hold office, despite his total incompetence) than Kemi Badenoch.

I may even place a bet on “Boris” to be next Con Party leader. The odds, though, are not too generous, below 5/1. Maybe I shall lose my money elsewhere…

https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/politics/market/1.235470805.

As Matt Goodwin says, though, Johnson was disastrous as PM (and, before that, as Foreign Secretary), and at present the Con Party is hovering around or below 20% in the opinion polls.

Quelle surprise…Stella Creasy cannot spell “supersedes“. Ignorant woman.

Nearly every other day I learn that someone I know in Wiltshire, in Westminster or in my wider Conservatiive network has left the party – and about half the time they join Reform too. Today two have jumped. Give it time, say Tory diehards but even under new leadership the Conservative Party simply isn’t healing or recovering. Its decline is continuing. I am not finding Reform membership easy but don’t regret my move nor leaving a party that is now so divided and adrift. It’s sad to watch.

I don’t know one lifetime Tory that still supports them personally, i wont ever vote for them again. They’re bad coalition where no meaningful policy happens, migration we had since Cameron was mostly low skill we are paying 70 yr high tax to subside that migration . Waste is massive, they were funding most of the things they said they didn’t support. to be honest Tim looking at the state of this country I’m wondering did they do anything in 14 years, everything in England is broken, GPS, dentists, NHS, councils, police, judiciary, child services, mental health services, prisons, social care, we have gone backward and it’s frightening to watch.

Semi-literate, but surely accurate.

It has been forecast in the past and not quite happened, but I truly feel that the once-great Conservative Party is now finally going the same way as the old 19thC/20thC Liberal Party. Terminal decline.

The Con vote in (?) 2029 (and assuming that a nuclear war has not happened by then anyway) may be as low as 15%.

That could see the Con Party reduced to 20 MPs (if Con 15%, Lab 25%, Reform 30%, LibDems 15%, Greens 10%): see https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

It would also mean Reform UK getting 330 Commons seats, an overall majority, and thus being able to form the next Government of the UK. If that then ended badly, social nationalism could finally arise. God mote it be.

[“Eighteen Years“]

Talking point

I happened to see on TV an elderly, over-90 years, but very compos mentis, retired professor, talking to the TV chef Rick Stein about the decline in average IQ since 1950, as apparently noted in a study done by, or under the auspices of, Bradford University. The professor cited as a (or even the) causative reason the decline of consumption of fish and shellfish in the UK over the past 74 years.

That may be part of it. Certainly some types of fish popular with the mass market have become expensive; even standard British favourites such as cod and haddock. I bought some fish and chips recently: 1 large cod, 1 large haddock, 1 small bag of chips. £20.50.

Whether you think that £20.50 for a smallish bag of chips and 2 large pieces of fish is expensive or not will depend on your general financial level, but it is at least certainly more than most citizens will want to pay out on a daily basis.

Some fish in the UK is not, however, expensive, however poor you are. Mackerel, for one, which can be bought (uncooked) in a supermarket for as little as a pound or so for a good-size fillet.

I recall that, when I lived in Fethiye (Turkey) for a few months in 2001 (I drove there from the UK, a trip that was more difficult then than it now is), I went to the fish market in the town almost daily, about 4-5 times a week. The hierarchy of price descended from the most expensive, which were huge langoustines, or tuna steak and swordfish (cut from massive whole tuna and swordfish, some 5 or 6 feet or more long and 1-2 feet wide), through many other types of fish and shellfish and down to tiny fish, presumably by-catch, which cost only about 5% or even 2% of the most expensive. There is always a decision to be made by the individual on what is affordable or not.

The many restaurant tables and chairs were not there when I used to patronise the market (neither was that sign in English) but, at that time, in 2001, the fish market was new, having been built or rebuilt and possibly having also been relocated from a different place. That was 23 years ago. How time flies when you are older…]

IQ in a general population is obviously affected by diet, but is also a function of other factors. The UK’s average IQ level has been badly affected by, inter alia, the mass immigration that has been such a feature of the past 75 years.

Importation of non-European peoples into the UK has had many negative consequences. A lower average IQ is merely one.

One sees evidence of decline in IQ and/or educational levels everywhere. One example might be secondary school exam papers. When I was studying, belatedly, in my mid-twenties, for “A” Levels (and an “S” level) in 1983, studying alone and without tuition, I sent off for papers from a number of previous years, from the 1950s and 1960s right up to 1982. Even in 1983, one could see that the level of difficulty had steadily declined over the previous 30 years.

Since the 1980s, of course, there has been massive award inflation. Not only at secondary educational level but also at tertiary (university) level. Hardly anyone actually fails a university degree now, unless the student drops out. The kind of average degree, normal only 30 or more years ago, a 2:2 (as earned by Tony Blair, among others), is now not even considered a reasonably “good” degree. The real standard has not improved, but dropped, while presented as something wonderful.

Not that IQ (and knowledge) mean everything, anyway. “EQ” (“emotional intelligence”) is also important: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_intelligence.

As for myself, long ago, in the 1980s, my IQ was tested at 156 (UK average being 100, and university students typically testing at 125), certainly in the top 1% of the population, but that was in the mid-1980s, when I was about 30, and it may well be (I do not know) that I would test lower today. By way of compensation, though, I think that I can say that experience, and other infusions from the stream of Life, make up the difference, and perhaps more.

We often hear that “things do not work properly any more in our society”, and that may become a greater problem as average IQ drops ever lower.

Our society should be travelling, by design, in the other direction.

“Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer is a very nasty little man, a typical bureaucrat given power and unable to handle it.

[“Off with their heads!“]

Do not imagine that words alone will sort out this whole mess.

It is time to stop thinking of MPs, not all but many of them, as merely “mistaken” or “wrongheaded“, and to awaken to the fact that some, perhaps many of them, are —in a word, in lay meaning— “traitors” to the British people and their future. Not necessarily the above MP, though; I am talking generally.

Whatever one may think of “Tommy Robinson”, he has a point, nicht wahr?

This decision by the SRA about Lewis’ negligent advice is just awful. Mark Lewis told Pete Newbon that the defamatory publication did not identify me. It was startlingly incompetent advice because the publication contained a clear photo of me and Tolley v Fry (possibly the most famous defamation case) says a claimant can be identified by a photo or sketch. The SRA’s own Code of Conduct says solicitors must “ensure that the service you provide to clients is competent…” So contrary to what the SRA says, incompetent advice is a regulatory matter. And the SRA’s strategy for dealing with Lewis’ incompetent advice is for Newbon to bring a negligence claim or complain to the ombudsman. Obviously, Newbon will not do either of those things. It scares me that the SRA – faced with a solicitor who appears not to grasp the absolute basics of the area of law he works in – won’t take action to protect the public from incompetent advice. Surely it is the SRA’s job to identify and deal with solicitors who give incompetent advice?@sra_solicitors @lawsocgazette.

Mark Lewis, as previously noted, is a self-publicizing and —by the “occupied” UK msm— hugely overrated solicitor who should have been struck off (not merely reprimanded and fined, as he was) for some of his previous professional (meaning unprofessional) defaults. He is, and has been repeatedly proven to be, dishonest, untruthful, and professionally negligent.

Only a complete idiot would now instruct “Mark Lewis Lawyer”.

What is protecting Lewis, in my view, is the fact that the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority was screeched at in 2019 by the organized Jew-Zionist lobby, after the SRA fined and reprimanded Lewis, after which he performatively decamped to Israel (but then slunk back quite often to the UK to make money). The SRA may be running a little scared of “the screechers” (((them))).
