I believe that Crooke was an officer of British SIS, who now lives somewhere in Lebanon.
Apparently the London/UK economy will have lost about £30M by reason of the ban on that black entertainer (and the subsequent/consequent abandonment of a music festival), he now having been banned from entering the UK.
All because a few Jews felt (pretended to feel) “offended” by his planned brief presence here.
When the karmic pendulum swings, Israel and the Israelis will suffer blows of Fate compared to which the early 1940s “holocaust” farrago will be seen as nothing.
She only just discovered this?
Ha ha. I doubt that Putin will be shaking in his boots. Does that political pygmy, Healey, really imagine that his empty threats will concern a country whose leadership controls, apart from large numbers of ships and submarines, something like 6,000+ nuclear weapons?
It really is ludicrous watching little System-party people such as Healey enjoying their 15 minutes of fame on (what they obviously imagine is) the “world stage”.

In any case, Britain should be out of NATO and seeking closer relations with Russia. Apart from, in that event, not being a prime target in any major conflict, the British people would then get their required oil and gas at cost price, from Russia.
As already said…ludicrous. Like all present Labour-label ministers, Healey is just a silly little joke.
Iran is now able to tax all ships, or all it wants to tax, using the Strait of Hormuz. The “going rate” is said to be USD $2M per ship per transit. Normal traffic, i.e. when there is no active conflict, was about 150 ships per day (westward and eastward combined). That adds up about about USD $300M per day into Iran’s coffers. “A nice little earner”, if you like. Even if only the eastward ships are to be taxed, that would still be about USD $150M daily.
Almost identical to another poll yesterday. Main points: a solid Commons majority for Reform (about 383 MPs), and Starmer losing his own seat (as in all polls for months now).
I gave a talk on international swaps (and informal trading tactics) at the University of South Carolina, one sunny afternoon in 2002. A pleasant-enough place, located in Columbia, South Carolina, and about a 2-hour drive from Charleston.

Seems a long long time ago now…
Import millions of such types, and you also import their corruption and thievery, inter alia. Fact.
[“And now I’m here at this lovely rooftop bar in central London. It’s a gorgeous, hot, sunny day, with a balcony that overlooks all of the London landmarks, so have a guess why nobody is sat outside? That’s right; you’re not allowed drinks outside anymore. They had an incident on Saturday and since then have banned drinks outside. This is everything that’s wrong with this country. A few people do something stupid and instead of dealing with them, everyone has their fun stopped. Bloody depressing.“]
Exactly.
I used to use Leather Lane Market occasionally in the 1980s. Near Hatton Garden and other places. Have not been back since about 1993.
More has been made of the canal since I lived in London.
That photographer seems to hit all my old haunts: Lincoln’s Inn, Little Venice, Clerkenwell/Holborn…
