"Of the 84,000 people who received initial decisions on their asylum claims, almost half of them, 47%, were granted protection and allowed to stay in the country."https://t.co/t5Xtins5i0
As noted previously on the blog. In fact, in the end, about 80% of the supposed “asylum-seekers” are allowed to stay. Starmer-stein will make sure that that figure rises to 90%, and even the ones that eventually fail to make a case will, most of them, not be deported.
Under the now completely outdated rules and principles established after WW2, there are quite literally hundreds of millions of people who might make out a case for asylum in the UK, the state the world is in. Are our so-called “leaders”, the System political idiots, going to allow them all in? What do you think our society will look like then (before it collapses)?

Otherwise known as the government using British taxpayer cash to outbid the British people in the housing market by backing private firms to offer more favourable contracts to asylum seekers than British peoplehttps://t.co/wnL1sJ7H9hhttps://t.co/BplFOlxq75
Those British people who are still asleep must awaken.
"In the Netherlands, the net lifetime costs of asylum-seekers are estimated to be £400,000 per migrant while one study puts the annual cost of non-Western migration to the Dutch people at an eye-watering €17 billion."https://t.co/U5srndOvjj
All so that civilized European countries can waste the resources that should be going to the future of those countries on the maintenance —forever— of million upon million non-European parasites and their offspring. Scarcely any will make a positive contribution (even leaving aside the racial-demographic aspects); most will be (and are) at best parasites, at worst criminal or terroristic.
I used to think fears of open sectarian conflict, as a consequence of mass migration, were overblown. But the conflagrations in LA and NI, 5,000 miles apart, could be worrying precursors to more serious confrontations in the future. https://t.co/6s6pqVviWGpic.twitter.com/25LvVdDKzo
It's likely to happen eventually. Once you drill into the data, almost all conflicts are between genetically distinct people groups, and the UK has been increasing the average genetic distance between its residents.
The concept of the creation of a “super-race” does not (only) mean that one existing race rules other existing races, but (also) means the gradual change, or sometimes less gradual change, from an existing race to a higher race-form, one which can be the basis or foundation for a quantum leap in human evolution.
To my mind, two aspects stand out: firstly, the fact that Reform UK has been attracting voters from all System parties, leaving the Greens aside. Former Conservative Party voters, but also former Labour Party voters; even some former LibDem voters (presumably, people who previously voted LibDem as being “the least bad of a bad bunch”). Secondly, the fact that Reform UK seems to be able to pull out of their self-imposed (?) exile people who in recent times have preferred not to vote (presumably in disgust at the choice or, rather, lack of choice, offered.
I have said many times on this blog that, with (in 2024) just on 40% of the entire eligible electorate preferring not to vote, any party that could energize even a substantial fraction of those voters, might sweep to power. It is not clear what proportion of 2024 non-voters are now willing to vote Reform, but it seems to be a substantial proportion, anyway (and no other party is managing to do the same).
A further point of interest is how many 2024 Lab and Con voters are now intending to abstain. Quite a few, but more from the Labour camp. I am guessing that the one-time Corbyn supporters are either going Green or abstaining, while others are going LibDem or to Reform, but it may not be so clear-cut.
What the picture will be by 2029, I cannot say, but somehow I doubt that most of those dissatisfied voters will be flocking back like homing pigeons to Lab or Con. Indeed, it may well be that both main System parties will experience further drift away from their control and influence.
Gaza
'This is deliberate… this is the militarisation of starvation.'
Whoever in the UK —whether Jew or non-Jew— supports what the Israeli Government is doing in Gaza is complicit in war crimes of a deeply sadistic and brutal kind.
Jewish orgs in the UK, such as the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], maintain that only 6% of Jews in the UK say that they are not “Zionists”, and that the vast majority of the remaining 94% support what the Israeli Government is doing. From the horse’s mouth.
Starmer-stein has vowed to maintain arms sales to Israel. He is therefore and thereby aiding and abetting the worst kind of state terrorism, indeed terrorism bullying a civilian population (a high proportion of which consists of non-combatant women and children) which has no means at all of protecting or defending itself, let alone of fighting the Israeli Jews with their jet aircraft, missiles, tanks etc.
It becomes ever more obvious that the establishment of the State of Israel was a terrible mistake. Still, perhaps it will be possible to correct that, together with other, connected, mistakes.

You only have to look at the schools, particularly at primary educational level, particularly in the cities, towns, and suburbs. There are few white children (“formerly known as English or British”) at all.
Electoral Calculus translates that result to Reform 376 MPs, Lab 129, LibDem 65, SNP 39, Cons 11. Once again, if replicated at the 2029 (?) General Election, terminal for the Conservative Party.
That kind of special forces type of operation is in a grey area alongside “terrorism”. The Kiev regime is doing it not from a position of strength but from one of military weakness, weakness on the battlefield. The Kiev regime’s forces are depleted, at little more than skeleton strength now. Russian Federation forces are steadily if slowly advancing across the major sections of the front, and are not retreating on any sector of the front.
I expect a Russian move shortly that will be both payback for the recent drone attacks on airfields as far away as Western Siberia, and an escalation which may create a breakthrough for the Russian side.

Today, I woke up hearing about sexual offenders being released early from UK prisons and I’m now going to bed hearing about Lucy Connolly being kept in jail for sharing some hurty words on social media. The absurd reality of modern Britain.
In reality, even were it thought to be necessary (I say not) or appropriate to send that lady to prison for her arguably inflammatory words on social media, 3 months would have been enough, and more than enough, to send a message to her and others. She was sentenced, on 17 October 2025, to 31 months, of which 40%, or about 12 months, will be spent in prison.
If memory serves, Lucy Connolly spent over a month in prison on remand before sentencing (it will be recalled that “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer-stein interfered with the handling of all those post-“riot” cases) , so that month or six weeks will be discounted anyway. On that basis, Lucy Connolly would have been released by some date in September 2025 anyway, even without having appealed on sentence (she could not have appealed the conviction as such, she having pleaded guilty).
As it is, at time of writing it appears that the Court of Appeal justices have reserved judgment.
I think that Katie Hopkins is right about the reasons for that; see
The Appeal Court does not need time to make a judgement.
Of course, I do not agree with Katie Hopkins’ lauding (in her tweet video) of stupid pro-Jewish-lobby scribbler Allison Pearson and the hypocritical “Free Speech Union” of Toby Young (also completely under the spell of the worst parts of the Jewish/Israel lobby). I have blogged about all of that on previous occasions.
We should know by Monday whether Lucy Connolly will be released soon. I expect she will be, with or without some face-saving slight delay.
Of course, what makes the Lucy Connolly sentence egregiously harsh is not even the 31 months itself (very harsh though that was, especially on a —possibly misguided— guilty plea; a mother of young children with no previous convictions, wife of an unwell husband etc; and because her swiftly-deleted tweet in fact resulted in no actual real-world riotous effects); but also the societal background.
A cursory look at the newspapers will show endless cases of (real) violence, of theft (often considerable in quantum) etc, in which cases the defendants (usually with previous convictions) have been given non-custodial sentences, or immediate prison sentences but far shorter than that visited upon Lucy Connolly.
The perceived helplessness of Lucy Connolly (a childminder, with her own young children, and who cried during her court appearances) makes her treatment all the more infuriating. It is as if (?) she has been made a deliberately-chosen sacrificial victim.
I am enjoying the vibes shift in the UK right now. Times columnist once critical of our Substack now comes round to what we argued for two years ago. Time to leave the ECHR.
That little twerp, Sebastian Payne, a failed Conservative Party candidate (he applied for several candidatures for Westminster seats during 2022-2024 but was never selected: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebastian_Payne) evidently thinks that the Con Party still has a run in it, and that, if the Nigerian woman now “leading” it will pledge to leave the ECHR regime, the Con Party will rise again.
It is sad, in a way, that the Westminster Bubble people, such as Payne, seem to genuinely believe that the ECHR issue is, firstly, of huge importance, and secondly, that it resonates with the Average Joe voter.
Just taking the second point, the idea that the average voter really cares about the ECHR, whatever its effect on deportations etc, is ludicrous. Most people do not know what it is, and that will not change however often some black woman posing as “Conservative” leader pushes it on TV.

DR Helen Webberley, Founder of GenderGP, outlines new NHS plans to treat nursery age children who believe they are transgender. pic.twitter.com/O2o8SDqYfs
Why is GB News even allowing that woman to spout rubbish, and why do they allow her to describe herself as “Dr” and so to pose as some kind of “expert”?
Helen Webberly and her husband, a struck-off medic, founded the misleadingly-named “GenderGP” in 2015 in Singapore: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GenderGP. A fraudulent and money-making entity.
Helen Webberley was suspended from practice by the GMC in the UK. Her husband, a retired gastroenterologist (i.e. not a specialist in the “trans”/sex/”gender” field) took over the business (for such it is), but was himself then suspended from practice, later being struck off the medical register.
Though Helen Webberley’s suspension from practice was lifted in 2023, her licence to practise was revoked in 2024.
I have always been wary of medics who prefer to be politicians, political activists etc (a few examples being Armand Hammer, Hastings Banda, Papa Doc Duvalier, David Owen, Che Guevara, Radovan Karadzic, Bashar al-Assad), and the same goes for medics who become money-grasping quasi-medical “activists” and business chancers (cf. Julia Grace Patterson, the British “Covid” fanatic, pseudo-champion of the NHS, and facemask seller).

“Sadiq Khan is announcing plans to build on parts of London’s green belt, in a dramatic shift in housing policy aimed at tackling “the most profound housing crisis in the capital’s history”.
In a major speech on Friday, the mayor of London is expected to say the scale of the challenge, which could need about 1m new homes built in the next decade, requires a break from longstanding taboos.
It marks the first time city hall will support the strategic release of low-quality or inaccessible green belt land near transport links in order to provide hundreds of thousands of new affordable homes.”
[Guardian]
Very sad. Apart from that, when they talk about “low-quality or inaccessible land“, what “low-quality” means in this context is simply land on the edge of built-up areas, which may not always be very scenic (but could be, with political will to improve it). “Inaccessible land” is still better than the same land being built on, and its very inaccessibility provides a haven and sanctuary for animals, birds, insects etc.
This is what happens when a country is invaded by a million migrant-invaders per year (legal or illegal)— pressure on land, transport, public services etc increases, housing becomes unaffordable, and life becomes stressed and unpleasant. Look around. The evidence is all around you.

[“Let’s put emotions aside for a moment. The United States .. like any sovereign nation .. has every right to reclaim its independence, pursue its national interest, and break free from parasitic entanglements that have long drained its dignity and resources. What we are witnessing today may be the first real attempt in decades by parts of the American establishment to free themselves from the stranglehold of the Zionist lobby. But here’s the irony: the very idea that America might make decisions based on its own interests has sent Israeli officials into a frenzy. Why? Because for decades, they’ve treated the U.S. not as an ally, but as a tool .. a weaponized servant to carry out their ambitions, silence their critics, and whitewash their crimes. And now, as the leash begins to loosen, their panic grows louder. Let’s be clear: This isn’t a battle between good and evil. It’s a clash between Racial superiority and religious superiority One seeking global domination through lies, manipulation, and media .. driven illusions , Blackmailing , assassination The other aiming to reassert global control through , brute force, and economic imperialism We now stand at a crossroads for America: Either the United States, through Trump, succeeds in imposing a model of sovereign imperialism based on American supremacy… Or Israel unleashes its old playbook .. media manipulation, financial pressure, political chaos .. to manufacture another storm, just as it did when JFK tried to challenge their influence and paid for it with his life.“]

Interesting. Plaid is of course not truly “national” or “nationalist”, but more akin to the SNP in Scotland. Its basic premise, that Wales should be an independent state, is of course ludicrous, especially but not solely from the economic point of view.
Having said that, I can see why Welsh voters in Wales are going for Plaid (the apparent tautology is in fact not so, because a great number of voters in Wales are not Welsh, being either non-European —non-white— or English, mostly the latter; there are a few other small groups as well).
I think that Plaid is making hay because the main System parties, Lab and Con, are perceived as both hopeless and not “local” (to Wales). That was not always so (in relation to Labour) but I think it probably is so now.
As for Reform’s upsurge in Wales, it follows the rise in support for Reform in England and even in Scotland.
In Scotland, Reform is rising up, but another consequence of the drastic fall in support for both Con and Lab is that the SNP may survive, however unmeritedly, and may be able to increase its Westminster representation from its present 9 MPs (out of 57 Scottish seats) to something like 30; not quite the 56 out of 59 it had in 2015, nor even the 48 out of 59 it had in 2019, but still respectable, and a plurality of the 57 Scottish seats that now exist.
Put another way, people across the UK are binning Con and Lab, and I do not see that changing.
The YouGov poll is about the Senedd (Welsh Assembly) elections, not Westminster voting intentions, but must have relevance to the next general election.
Running that through Electoral Calculus (notionally putting LibDems at 15% and Greens at 10%): Reform 375 MPs; Labour 121; LibDems 62; SNP 38; Cons 25. A Reform government with a very large majority of 49 (working majority of about 59).
I keep seeing Labourite and Con Twitter-twits’ tweets saying “still 4 years to go“, as if the main System parties will somehow regain public trust before 2029. Are they serious?!

Stonewall told managers and employees that “transwomen” were entitled to enter women’s single-sex spaces and sports. It encouraged public and private sector organizations to “go beyond the law” in the hope that this would make gender self-ID the de facto – and eventually de jure – reality.

Worst of all, children have been encouraged to believe it’s possible to change sex, and that they will be accepted for all purposes as the opposite sex. All these lies and misrepresentations have caused immense damage. Some of the protests have been repulsive and inexcusable.

Treatment of animals in Egypt is often very bad, and most of the people there are cowardly wastes of space.
It is interesting to note that not only do Europeans run all or almost all of the animal welfare hospitals etc in Egypt, but also most of the efforts devoted to helping the Egyptian children etc born with various handicaps. The locals (I was told when I was there for a few months in the 1990s) regard such accidents or incidents of birth as a curse from God, and so need not be addressed at all. Backward Islamic or quasi-Islamic beliefs.
It is also interesting to note that modern Egypt was run best under the European influence of c.1860-1952 and in particular the years between the First and Second World Wars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Egypt.
In Alexandria, that time is known as the International Period. Far more civilized than Alexandria as it now is.
The Egyptian in that Daily Mail report is typical. Willing to hurt a defenceless donkey, but running away when a European woman confronted him. Pity he was not himself whipped.
I could tell of a number of instances when I saw that Egyptian coward/bully mentality. There are exceptions, and some of the Egyptians are better than that, but I think a small minority.
Look at the pathetic Egyptian Army. As the old joke has it, the only time (in the past few thousand years) when the Egyptians won a military victory was in the second act of Aida.
Really, it has to be admitted that Africa generally, and including North Africa , should be under civilized European rule.

If Sarah Vine (Daily Mail scribbler, and ex-wife of Israel/Jewish lobby puppet Michael Gove) is not Jew or part-Jew, I’ll eat my hat. Still, she apparently owns at least one book by David Irving, so the question remains at least somewhat open.
As for Seldon, as a well-known writer, historian etc, he should know that the USA lost its moral authority long ago, certainly by the time it became a “tail wags dog” state controlled by Israeli and other Jewish and Zionist interests under the two Bush presidents and Clinton, Obama, and Biden. You only have to think of the torture and perversity inflicted at Abu Ghraib, Bagram, Kabul, Guantanamo, and elsewhere.

The Russian ruble has strengthened against the dollar by 38% in over-the-counter trading since the beginning of the year, becoming the world's most profitable currency due to the US dollar weakening amid new American duties, Bloomberg reported:https://t.co/tNH72Lxisnpic.twitter.com/lcv9Dc0U59
Well, that poll (with notional LibDem vote around 12%, and Greens on 10%) would result in a Commons with 198 Lab MPs, 187 Reform, and 156 Con (51 Libdems, 27 SNP, 4 Greens). The only possible government on those numbers would be a Reform/Con arrangement of some sort, having a majority of 17, and a working majority slightly bigger. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.
The polls are variable at present, but all tell the same story— Reform UK either the most popular party or a close second. Bearing in mind that Reform voters are said to be more motivated to actually vote than Lab or Con voters (and that fewer Lab voters vote by post, Con and Reform voters tending —so far— to be older and, by reason of that, less healthy), the real picture could well be even better for Reform.
I see the reality as being that at least a plurality of voters are absolutely sick of what Britain is becoming, and are therefore clutching at the Reform straw even though, in many cases, underwhelmed by both Reform and Farage. The voters who support Reform want to hit out at, and perhaps bury, both Lab and Con.
This should make the Runcorn and Helsby by-election even more interesting. The betting market (which I have found an unreliable guide to by-election results) has Reform as strongly odds-on favourite to win (about 1/3, with Labour around 5/2, and Conservatives around 8/1; there are 15 candidates in all). https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/politics/market/1.241434500.
I think and have blogged that Reform will smash it, but I concede that there are a number of factors in play. The constituency has Runcorn town as main voter pool, but even that is over 90% white, so the George Galloway vehicle, Workers’ Party, will probably come in 4th or 5th.
Turnout may or may not be low; if it is, Reform will benefit, probably. I wonder how many former Labour voters will turn out to vote for a nominally “Labour” government that has cheated pensioners, is intent on cheating and bullying the sick, disabled and unemployed, and which is at the same time throwing money at “Ukraine” (the brutal Zionist dictatorship in Kiev) and foreign aid recipients. All that, and while also presiding over ever-worse migration invasion, and the consequent street crime now seen everywhere.
The “experts” are still saying that the by-election will be close between Reform and Labour, but Labour seems less credible with every passing day. No less than 700 migrant-invaders landed on the beaches of England yesterday alone!
The Conservative Party under the Nigerian woman is a busted flush. In any case, in 2024 the Cons only scored 16% in the Runcorn and Helsby constituency.
Any 2024 Conservative Party voters who want to stick it to Labour have no choice but to vote Reform, tactically.
This by-election will be a pure test of the popularity of both Starmer-stein’s fake “Labour” government and of Reform UK. Its importance is huge.
Let’s go Runcorn and Helsby! It’s a two horse race —Labour or Reform—and only one of them believe in Britain. You know what to do.

Starmer-stein has just sent the latest tranche of British taxpayers’ money, £450M of it, to the brutal dictatorship of the Jew Zelensky in Kiev.
Meanwhile, also, Starmer-stein and thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner have postponed many local council elections across England.
The Runcorn and Helsby by-election, though, has not been “postponed”, and it looks as though Reform may win it. I should have thought that Reform would smash it, but the “experts” are all saying it may be close between Reform and Labour.
True, Labour got over 50% of the vote in 2024 (Reform 18.1%, Cons 16%), but 2024 was a different world.
Since then, the Labour MP (who looked like an idiot anyway) for Runcorn and Helsby has stepped down after having drunkenly assaulted a constituent in the street. Also, Starmer-stein has thrown away billion upon billion to “Ukraine” (the Jewish regime in Kiev), to Israel (via military assistance), and to those in Africa and Asia who hate us.
Britain continues to be invaded, daily, by literally thousands of blacks and browns (millions every couple of years); also, British people are not only having their living standards further reduced (after 14 years of equally bad and in fact very similar “Conservative” misgovernment), but having their free speech rights hacked away.
Are there really enough dummies voting, even in a once-hardcore Labour area such as Runcorn, to elect another Starmer-stein drone MP? I hope not. Former Labour voters will, I think, either stay home or vote Reform, while only the most stupid and hide-bound former Con voters will turn out to vote at the by-election for a Con candidate who has no chance at all and may well lose his deposit. Those former Con voters who mainly want to stick it to Labour have no choice but to vote Reform tactically.
Something has to give in the body politic. It may be that that will become apparent at Runcorn and Helsby. Reform UK is just the start of a process, however. Social nationalism must eventually arise.

Goldsmiths College apologised to Ray Campbell for causing him “distress” and suspending him over the charity Campaign Against Antisemitism's allegationshttps://t.co/Ln0z1wlcHh
The “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] operates, like so many Jewish/Zionist/Israeli orgs, under a cloak of secrecy. Its address is secret, its funding is secret, and most of its supporters’ names are secret. It contrives complaints to professional regulators and to the police (usually via “Slitherman”, as some call its self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement”), and tries to bully both individuals and organizations.
“Slitherman” himself was exposed years ago, in open court, and by the bungling of the CAA’s Jewish solicitor, as a pseudonymous online troll, taunting (almost exclusively) women on social media; some had suffered nervous harm as a result. Since then, “Slitherman” has not, as far as I know, had the courage to give evidence (or perjured evidence) in court, but relies on backstairs manipulation of police and CPS.
Incidentally, “Slitherman” was not alone in his online trolling of women (and a few men as well). There was a whole little group. The others, though, all seem to have —permanently— stopped…
“Slitherman” himself now mostly retweets tweets from the “CAA” (quite likely drafted by him anyway).
I understand (I believe I read, anyway) that Starmer-stein, despite being a total puppet of Israel and Jewish Zionism, instructed his staff a couple of years ago not to interact with the “CAA”; in any case, and whatever the truth of that, Starmer is probably more connected to the more “established” Jewish/Zionist orgs, such as the “Board of Deputies of British Jews” and the “Community Security Trust” [“CST”].
The “CAA” has damaged itself by its constant litany of false complaints, wasting of police time, wasting of CPS resources, and by the lies and actual perjury (albeit never punished properly, as yet) of its leading members and supporters.

One of the first acts of the Labour government was to scrap the Rwanda scheme, resulting in many of the 5,700 people the Kigali administration had agreed to accept having their claims processed in the UK asylum system. Some subsequently received decisions on their claims but it is estimated that thousands have remained in limbo.”

As predicted on this blog, the Keir Starmer-stein “Labour” (Labour Friends of Israel) misgovernment is “solving” the problem by simply rubberstamping the applications of the migrant invaders.
Even under the fake “Conservatives”, at least 80% of the applications were “processed” leading to acceptance. In other words, over 80% were being allowed to stay, meaning that they then get rights to housing, social security/”welfare” payments, and all other benefits available to the actual British population.
This latest news is, of course, the tip of the iceberg. It is probably correct to say that over 90% of migrant-invaders are now being allowed to stay in the UK, with most of the rest also in effect allowed to stay by reason of not being removed from this country. In fact, the few actually leaving are almost all doing so voluntarily, and there are very few of them.
The next step will be, as I also predicted, “processing” invaders before they even get on those rubber boats. They will then enter the UK superficially “legally”, along with the enormous number of other “legal” migrants (migrant-invaders). Between half a million and one and a half million a year.

Some thoughts around the Trump tariffs etc
Assuming that the tariff wars continue and even escalate, what will result?
To my mind, the basic or overarching result will be that trade between the USA and the worst-hit other states will fall away, fall off, and then become trade among those tariff-hit states. China will deal more with Russia, India, Japan, European (including EU) states etc.
It is said that diplomacy has three main branches: classical or straight diplomacy (diplomats, intergovernmental contacts, military pacts etc), economic “diplomacy” (trade and trading incidents, eg tariffs, sanctions etc), and cultural “diplomacy” (such as that which used to exist between the Soviet Union and the West, via such bodies as the UK Foreign Office-funded G.B.-U.S.S.R. Association, to which I myself belonged in the 1980s).
Already, we can see that Russia is gradually forming a trade axis with a core group (China, North Korea, Iran) and a wider outer group (India, and numerous other states across the world). Now, the American or Trump tariffs will create a different bloc of tariff-hit states trading inter se and interpenetrating that first bloc. A kind of Venn diagram.
I can only assume that those advising Trump have it in mind to rebuild American industry and commerce by choking off the supply of foreign goods and maybe also services entering the United States, thus stimulating domestic production. That might work, though at the cost of driving up prices in many cases. However, there would obviously be consequential effects, in that retaliatory tariffs would hit American industry and commerce. China is leading the way in that regard.
The ultimate effects are still unknown. Of course, economic warfare can result in real warfare, and that has been seen time and again, as with the US-Japan situation prior to 1941.
It is not unlikely that the next major war will be between the USA and China.
