Not much different in the UK, except in terms of scale.

Starmer-stein is far from being the only UK politician more or less under (((control))), but he is, after all, the person currently posing as Prime Minister.

Incidentally, that U.S. Congressman featured above, Jake Auchincloss, is a half-Jew anyway: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jake_Auchincloss#Early_life_and_education; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jake_Auchincloss#Israel

Take a look at this, about David Cameron-Levita, too:

Once again, Cameron (Cameron-Levita) is himself both a member of Conservative Friends of Israel, and a part-Jew.

I hope so, if only because it will show that “their” money and consequent political influence will be resisted.

Would translate to a Commons with about 438 Reform MPs, 74 Lab, 54 LibDem, 36 SNP, and 20 Cons (etc).

Reinforces the previous ~125 opinion polls over the past year.

Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

Deliberately insane.

Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

And which group do you think is behind most of that?…

“Them”.

…and the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby.

[“NEW: A source very close to the senior leadership of MI6 has got in contact. They wanted to make public the opposition within the intelligence agency to the proscription of Palestine Action. Senior figures are said to feel it is a distraction from the battle against real terrorist threat – and should never have happened. The source has been verified.“]

The proscription of Palestine action was and is absurd. They are mostly totally harmless people; the few who are not commit acts of politically-motivated vandalism, aided by the apparent fact that the RAF and others seem incapable of guarding their sites properly. There are already laws in place to deter or punish criminal damage, conspiracy to commit criminal damage, burglary etc.

The only reason that the Palestine Action group was proscribed was because Israel, via its publicity and “lawfare” fronts in the UK (eg the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA” cabal), pressured weak Starmer and other Labour Friends of Israel members presently in Cabinet to do it.

See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaise_Metreweli; also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_Ramsay,_Baroness_Ramsay_of_Cartvale. “[Meta Ramsay] is the chair of Labour Friends of Israel in the House of Lords.[9][10]” [Wikipedia].

The absurd thing is, of course, that the tiny number of people actively involved in “direct action” against Israeli targets, or targets involved with helping Israel, in the UK, will not be in the slightest deterred from their actions by the proscription of, in effect, a name.

Hundreds of thousands of civilians killed or badly injured, not to mention driven out of their modest homes which have now been flattened, and the neighbourhoods simply erased.

Every day, hundreds more killed, yet the newspapers in the UK prioritized the death by shooting of two Jewish guards at a synagogue in the UK, one of whom seems in fact to have been shot by the police.

The Gaza flattening goes beyond even most of the similar destruction in WW2. It is Biblical in its genocidal extent. The Roman destruction of Carthage also comes to mind— the symbolic sowing of salt in the ground, and then plowing of the ground where Carthage had stood.

As to the USA, for me it lost any right it still retained to call itself “home of freedom” etc when it embarked on its post-2001 programmes of secret abductions, concentration camps, and torture. All done in collaboration with the Jewish state, *Israel, and with the connivance of Jews and pro-Zionists across the U.S. Federal Government.

Hardy-ha-ha. Cameron-Levita was always ready, as Prime Minister, to throw money at bureaucratic “aid” projects, yet his government was the one that really weaponized hatred of the sick, disabled, and unemployed, and indeed the elderly (“bedroom tax” etc)…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedroom_tax

The lady tweeter, once “employed” by her MP husband (now ex-MP and ex-husband) via his bloated expenses, likes to pretend that she represents a political faction she calls, or miscalls, the “Moderates”. I have previously speculated as to whether the membership of the “Moderates” exists (beyond the lines of empty bottles in her kitchen). I doubt it.

“Compassionate Conservatism” was always a lie. Now it is a bad joke.

Typical black, though. Thinks that, so long as she keeps talking, or talking over the interviewer, and even if talking nonsense, people will think her both intelligent and plausible. Lammy is no different.

Looking at that Conservative Conference audience, once you take away the journalists and lobbyists, those sitting there are mostly about 80 years old, for one thing, and completely unresponsive to the speaker (unsurprising, since it was Mel Stride).

Both Dan Hodges and Owen Jones in the realms of fantasy. In reality, “neo-Nazis” are not “beating people up“. Most of the UK political violence you see is from the “antifa” dupes of Jew-Zionism, or from Islamist crazies, and the former at least is something that Owen Jones supports, as does Dan Hodges, in my opinion.

The top issue which impacts every other important issue.

[“Dizen: The European Union has no future – it is finished, a gradual disintegration also awaits NATO The EU has exhausted both its economic potential and has long ceased to bring any dividends to its members. Now those who lead it are trying to replace the language of mutual benefit with ideology and Russophobia. They propose increasing military spending, militarizing European societies, and the prospect of a great war instead of friendship with neighbors and shared prosperity. The people in the EU did not vote for this. The appropriate question is: aren’t the USA interested in a united Europe? They are, but Washington sees a united Europe as a competitor. Of course, it does not wish it harm, because it wants allies in European countries. However, the USA encourages internal conflicts because it benefits from a divided Europe. Therefore, I do not think the EU will last much longer. PROFESSOR Glen Dizen of the University of South-Eastern Norway assessed that the European Union has exhausted its own future, and that the prospects for the NATO pact are not at all rosy. Asked whether the European Union has a future or whether internal contradictions will prevail over the idea of a united and strong Europe and lead to the bloc’s disintegration, he said: – The EU has no future; it is finished. Not this year or next, but certainly in our lifetime. The European Union was born in the unique circumstances of the conflict between the West and the Soviet Union. Now, in the context of the transition to multipolarity, Europeans are losing unity because member states have gained more freedom. In this context, the gap between the interests of individual players becomes more obvious: for example, the security interests of Latvia have very little in common with those of Greece. Dizen further points out: “As for the economy, the EU has also exhausted its potential and has long ceased to bring any dividends to its members. Now those who lead it are trying to replace the language of mutual benefit with ideology and Russophobia. They propose increasing military spending, militarizing European societies, and the prospect of a great war instead of friendship with neighbors and shared prosperity. The people in the EU did not vote for this. – Even Germany, one of the key EU countries, has already begun to protest and seek a more important role in determining European policy. Essentially, this is a protest against the attempts of Brussels bureaucrats led by von der Leyen to tie all decisions to themselves. East, West, North, South — most EU countries are not ready to give up their sovereignty to some supranational body. They understand that this would result in discrimination against their interests. Therefore, fragmentation within the EU is growing. – Of course, the appropriate question is whether the USA are not interested in a united Europe? They are interested, but Washington sees a united Europe as a competitor. Of course, it does not wish it harm, because it wants allies in European countries. However, the USA encourages internal conflicts because it benefits from a divided Europe. Therefore, I do not think the EU will last much longer. Dizen answers the question of what awaits NATO as follows: — Paradoxically, the alliance also faces gradual disintegration. The USA have realized that they have lost the ability to “dominate” the world. Therefore, they are forced to choose: either to deal with European quarrels or to focus all their forces on a dangerous rival, China, which is becoming more and more confident. In this, of course, the Old World is less important. That is, the alliance leader, who held everything together, is slowly leaving them. And without the Americans, European countries will remember their mutual grievances and drown in mutual conflicts.“]

It is clear that the USA no longer, in the American phrase, “has Europe’s back“.

I have no idea whether Keir Starmer-stein has said anything about Easter; I have seen and heard nothing, yet I saw on Twitter/X that he invited a load of Jewish children to Downing Street a week ago in commemoration of the Jewish festival of Passover.

The world is not without kind people” [Russian proverb].

Yet another Labour Friends of Israel MP who has “never had a job” (a non-political job) (excepting some work for Facebook). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Simons#Early_life_and_education.

Hopefully, the next general election will see him chucked out.

Is he one of those “Labour” MPs with some kind of CIA or US Embassy (London) connection? I do not know.

You do not have to be a Labour Party supporter to see that Labour Friends of Israel member Liz Kendall is a disgrace.

[“How is this possible?! I voted Labour in 2024! but I am not going to vote Labour at the Runcorn and Helsby by-election on 1 May 2025, if I live until then!”]

“Them” (as always…).

“Portes”. Once (((again)))…

Britain has been invaded and is being occupied: “legal” immigrants (supposed spouses, fiancees, students, work-visa holders, then illegal immigrants on “small boats etc”, then births to those non-white women already in the UK, and also to stupid white/British women impregnated by blacks).

Again, Reform in the top two places of an opinion poll. I think that all opinion polls for the past 6-9 months have had Reform either top or second.

The “Conservatives” have no chance after their 14 years of appalling misgovernment 2010-2024, especially now that their idiot MPs and ordinary members have (for the second time) chosen to be led by a non-white, non-British “leader”.

On the Opinium figures, the Commons would have both Reform and Labour on 228 MPs, Cons with 97, and LibDems with 43 (taking LibDems and Green as each having a 10% vote-share). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

As with so many other recent polls, a Reform/Con government would be the only possibility, on those numbers, or a minority Reform government.

Very different figures, but same basic story. On those numbers, though, Reform UK would have about 325 MPs, one short of an absolute majority, but enough for a very thin working majority, without the need for support.

On the numbers there, Labour would have 154 MPs, Cons 58, and LibDems 45. If that were to happen, the Conservative Party would be utterly irrelevant, and likely to decline to near-zero over time.

Not sure whether that likely Con terminal decline would be the best result, or whether the best consequence of such an electoral result would be that Labour would have only 154 MPs instead of 403 (as now). A loss of 249 MPs. 249 upset System drones (plus 63 equally-upset Con ex-MPs; wonderful again…).

If that is representative of the proportional losses of the Ukrainian and Russian forces, then the Kiev-regime is losing perhaps 20 soldiers for every Russian soldier killed.

Did he steal too much even for Zelensky’s cabal to accept?

Another USD $20M loss for the US taxpayers.

[“Trump: US will leave talks if sabotage occurs, military aid to Ukraine suspended “If we see anyone trying to sabotage the negotiating process, the United States will withdraw from the negotiations,” Trump stressed. He also announced that the United States would no longer provide military support to Ukraine.”]

Looks as though the matter is moving towards the endgame, at least as far as American aid to the Kiev regime is concerned.

Hard to say how many tanks Russia now has. Somewhere between 2,000 and 10,000. The Kiev regime has somewhere between 500 and 1,500.

It is not impossible to imagine a direct assault on Kiev either this year or in 2026.

Spare a thought for Tim Walz and his wife (I already have— that is why I am laughing!…hahaha!)

Hard to argue with that, but still a totally one-sided tweet. What about the proven and perverse brutality in Israeli prisons? That’s before we even start to consider the torture (often worse, and also often perverse) inflicted by Israel-contaminated America (and its allies) in the fairly recent past in Abu Ghraib, Bagram, Guantanamo, and elsewhere, and which continues in some places.

Again, not a tweeter I would normally repost, but truth is truth…

Note how that supporter of the Democratic Party puts down the poorer (poorer white?) people in his country. That party has lost its traditional anchoring in the American “working class”, and is now foundering or floundering in a morass of identity politics, fake history, and soundbite nonsense. You only have to observe or listen to Kamala Harris, Tim Walz etc when on the campaign trail.

See also: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14061285/Harris-campaign-inside-disaster.html

The same sort of fate has overtaken both the Labour Party and the Conservative Party in the UK. Looking at misnamed “Labour”, it has little or no interest now in supporting the poorer part of the population, once its mainstay.

Can you imagine the old, pre-Blair, Labour Party effectively robbing pensioners of Winter Fuel Allowance, or similar, in order to throw that money and more to the Jew-Zionist dictatorship in Kiev, the bosses of which (including Zelensky) have each ripped off hundreds of millions of US dollars? I think not.

Would the old Labour Party be sheltering, feeding, and giving pocket money to migrant-invaders (in the hundreds of thousands), while —outside the repurposed business hotels housing the invaders, British ex-soldiers and others sleep in the streets? I think not.

Then there is the “anti-racism” nonsense, the “trans” nonsense etc, and looming over it all, the unquestioning support given by Starmer and all his hopeless Cabinet to Israel and the world (inc. UK) Jewish-Zionist lobby. After all, those political drones and corrupt freeloaders all belong to Labour Friends of Israel.

As for the “Conservatives”, no better. Both System parties are more or less a “uniparty” now. There are differences, yes, but few where it matters to the majority of the population.

The American voters, most of them, have clutched at the Trump straws; in the UK the equivalent, so far, would be Reform UK (though that is really just a System party in embryo, with mostly similar policies to the existing ones).

As British society gradually slides to dystopia, it can still happen that a small minority of social-national people may find a way to take power and rule this country properly. That minority need only be a few percent of the entire population, actively supported by another 10%, and mildly supported by another 20%.

Amazing rapport.

Press-gangs continue to force unwilling Ukrainians to fight, or at least be present, on the crumbling front-lines.

Such forced “recruits” are unlikely to be useful at the front, and quite likely to desert, despite the threat of a firing squad. The fact is that everyone except the Western mass media understands that the Kiev regime’s days are numbered; even the Western msm is slowly waking up to it.

Trump, as President, now needs to stop supporting both the Jewish state (Israel) and the Jewish “state within a state” (the American Jewish lobby).

Until fairly recently, I thought (obviously naively) that fentanyl was merely a horse sedative: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fentanyl

The Palestinians are a kind of orphaned people, thanks to the Jews who stole or robbed them of their land.

“...significant destruction”? I thought that the English were the masters of under-statement…

Interesting to see that the two ethnic/racial groups most pro-Trump are white people (i.e. of European racial heritage) and American Indians (aka Native Americans), the two groups which can now be fairly termed “indigenous”.

Not a new problem, though. I remember well when I returned from Rhodesia in 1977 and took a night job for a month, cleaning the floors at Gatwick Airport. All of the other temporary staff (about a dozen or so of them) were students from Sussex University near Brighton, all of them reading bs subjects such as Sociology. When they discovered that I had been in Rhodesia, the idiots all “sent me to Coventry”— would not speak to me at all, either doing the actual work (pushing large broom-type implements up and down the endless flooring) or in the refreshment area (I sat alone at a table with my machine-dispensed coffee).

Fortunately for those idiots, I have no idea of either their names or their whereabouts. If I did, I might feel that some belated justice might be due.

Sussex University, at least back then, had a problem with pseudo-radical students. I recall meeting some in 1975, while waiting in the very basic ferry passenger departure area at Vlissingen (southern Netherlands). At the time, there was a limited ferry service Vlissingen-Sheerness (Kent).

Later, though, around 1980, I was actually a guest of a student society at Sussex. They were very hospitable.

As for Gatwick Airport, I cannot use the South Terminal (the North Terminal did not exist in 1977) without thinking back to the days, or rather nights, when I cleaned those gleaming floors in the depths of darkness.

I am expecting the Stavka (Russian high command) to order a general advance westward and northward in 2025. If it happens and is successful, Zelensky and his regime will be rolled over.

I happened to see a news item on TV today about tiny children having to be fitted with prosthetic legs because the Israeli Jews have been bombing Gaza for over a year, killing or terribly injuring about 150,000 Gazans, mostly women and children.

As for those Israeli Jew football hooligans in Amsterdam, they thought themselves brave thugs when in a mass, shouting slogans, singing unpleasant songs, and attacking others; when they got it back, they started whining about how they are “victims”; Netanyahu even sent a plane to “rescue” them and take them back to their fake “homeland”. It is all too typical.

Amusing YouTube video

A regular reader of the blog sent me this:

Very amusing.

Ha ha! Hilarious, as are all such people and their (either) soon-to-be-“trumped” triumphalism and/or desperate and crazed outbursts once they realize that not only has their candidate lost, but also that they themselves have become worldwide laughing stocks.

It reminds me of the days, weeks, months after the Brexit Referendum in the UK, when you had hysterical women (almost all the funniest crazed tweets were from women) wailing about how the Brexit vote had “ruined their lives”, prevented them (somehow) from getting a 1970s Martini ad-style beautiful Euro-life, and how, in some cases, their offspring, teenage Josh and Jemima, would now (somehow) never be international lawyers and/or “top models”…

As I say, just hilarious.

According to what I have seen on Twitter/X, the young activist David R. Morgan (@david_r_morgan on Twitter/X) has been arrested by “anti-terror” police after complaints made by the (((usual))) troublemakers.

While I do not agree with everything he posts (manner rather than substance, though, in most cases), to be arrested merely for (as it seems) having posted some satirical cartoons etc would be yet another ludicrous misuse of police “anti-terror” powers in the UK.

Reminiscent of the persecution of satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz and others in previous years.

If Britain ever has a real government, it will have to use some islands off the coast as its own, though hopefully less brutal, version of the Solovetsky Islands [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solovetsky_Islands], so numerous are the enemies of our race, culture, and future.

Even that is but the tip of the iceberg. Most minor and some major crimes are never reported to the police, who in any case are often, maybe even usually, uninterested.

I have just finished A View from the Foothills: The Diaries of Chris Mullin, bought a while ago in paperback for about 20p from a supermarket charity shelf, and read slowly, a few pages a day, in the car.

In those diaries (quite interesting, but not as fascinating as the more famous ones of Alan Clark: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Clark#Diaries), Mullin recalls having visited the “anti-social behaviour” police in his own constituency; a pleasant enough group, but spending much if not all of their time in their office, rarely covering the ground where anti-social behaviour was actually happening.

A one-time “Labour” MP who accepted his “peerage” from “Boris” Johnson, another Israel-lobby puppet. A contrived “honour” which allows him to continue to receive money, both directly and indirectly.

For the sake of transparency, I should add that, in or about 2019, Austin also actually wrote to the then Director of Public Prosecutions on behalf of the malicious and tiny, though (((very well-funded))), “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] demanding that I be prosecuted for allegedly “antisemitic” tweets (I had a Twitter account until 2018).

Starmer is both overtly and covertly supported by Israel and its agents.

I have just watched part of a Sky News interview; Starmer interviewed by Beth Rigby.

Starmer was utterly pathetic as he was asked to define the “working people” his government and Rachel Reeves’ budget was intended to help. He said “in my mind’s eye” about 5 times even in the few minutes while I was watching and listening.

Starmer does not know what he is doing. A person both nasty and pathetic, as well as totally out of his depth.

Sometime about a decade ago, some newspaper or magazine referred to me as “the pro-Russian barrister Ian Millard“, but that, I thought, was far too broad to be libellous (it might have been said, to give just one example, merely to refer to my being interested in pre-revolutionary Russian literature, or Russian and Soviet orchestral and other music, which in fact do both apply to me).

I never seriously considered suing in defamation. In any event, I doubt whether such a suit could ever be successful, for a number of reasons. In fact, I took so little interest in the matter that I have forgotten where I saw the comment about me. I was looking for it recently, but had no success.

Jewish leaders reacted with fury last night after a pro-Palestine slogan was projected on to Big Ben.

Activists pulled off the stunt in full view of dozens of police monitoring a protest outside Parliament on Wednesday night. Scotland Yard said the officers could not act because it was ‘not a criminal offence’.

[Daily Mail]

A few months ago, the Jews arranged for the Israeli flag to be projected for a day or more onto 10 Downing Street. Blatant supremacism. That was far more offensive to many, including me.

Let us hope so.

A Palestinian young man carries the body of his young brother inside a bag after he was killed by Israeli snipers while trying to flee the Israeli war of starvation on northern Gaza to the south through Al-Rashid Street in Gaza City. Ironically, the coastal road is designated as a ‘safe corridor’ by the Israeli army.”

The present military power and political influence of “World Jewry”, centred on Israel, is a catastrophe for the world. Another negative long-term consequence of the disastrous —and disastrously finishing—Second World War.

[“We are fighting for the future of our children!”— Germany 1945]

The Jew Zelensky trying to fool the same people all over again.

Ukraine (Kiev regime) has fewer and fewer soldiers, especially on the frontlines, even fewer experienced soldiers, and a shortage of arms and ammunition. Its economy is in ruins, and up to a third of the entire population has relocated out of the country.

Russia has millions of reserve troops being trained and ready for deployment; has hugely expanded its production of arms and ammunition; the Russian hydrocarbon sector is bringing in hundreds of billions of dollars (or equivalent) in oil and gas sales; the domestic Russian economy is normal; new trade links worldwide are opening up. Russia’s nuclear backstop is being upgraded, and links with Iran etc are bringing up thousands of drones ready for deployment. Russia also has 6,000+ tactical and strategic nuclear weapons and a variety of delivery systems.

“Ukraine” will not launch a new counter-offensive, certainly not a successful one, in 2024. Russia, though, may launch one, and with every chance of success.

The U.S. Presidential election will quite likely bring a new American president to office. If that individual cuts off the supply of money and arms to the Kiev regime, the war will be over in weeks not months.

All the while, the “useful idiots” in subsidized “community” campaigns, churches etc will be singing about how wonderful mass immigration from backward countries is…

The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan] is no mere “conspiracy theory” but something which is being played out in real time, and right in front of our own eyes. The conspirators are not (only) little groups of wild-eyed fanatics in basements, and/or with names ending in “un-English” suffixes, but those in Westminster, in the “mainstream” political parties, in the newspapers, on (especially) TV and radio, and in the general world of supposed “celebrity”.

Incidentally, groups such as the malicious Jew-Zionist “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] get Jewish volunteers to “edit” (vandalize) Wikipedia on certain topics, so be cautious about what you read there.

GE 2024

Saw an opinion piece in the Yorkshire Post about the upcoming 2024 General Election. It seems to me to be mainly right:

Speaking to friends and colleagues, and listening in to conversations in the pub or on the train, I am becoming increasingly convinced that the public has made up its mind about the current government, and there is little Rishi Sunak and his team can do to change that.

They can keep talking, but voters are not listening anymore. The problem for the Conservatives isn’t a wave of enthusiasm for Sir Keir Starmer and Labour. Far from it. This isn’t the ‘Things Can Only Get Better’ vibe that swept Tony Blair to power in 1997, nor even the Corbyn mini surge that cost Theresa May her majority in 2017.

No, the problem for the Conservatives is not that their supporters are running to Labour, but that, as demonstrated in recent by-elections, Tory voters are simply staying at home on polling day.

Is that any surprise? I doubt that many people who gave Boris Johnson a thumping victory in 2019 thought they were voting for open borders, rampant inflation, an economic recession, and the highest tax burden since World War II. The Tories have only themselves to blame.

Sure, the pandemic followed by the war in Ukraine were unprecedented events that helped blow the government off course, but the Conservatives have lost sight of who they are supposed to be fighting for.

Imagine that over the next few months everything goes right for the Prime Minister – the establishment blob is finally defeated over asylum seekers and flights take off for Rwanda, and the boats are stopped crossing the Channel; the economy comes out of recession and begins to grow, inflation is tamed, and the Chancellor cuts taxes in the spring Budget.

Would it be enough to swing things Rishi’s way? I am starting to doubt it.

Any politician who wants to reconnect with the voters who could propel them to power should accompany me on my early morning commute. Catch any early train or bus into Leeds, Sheffield or Wakefield and take a look around the carriage. I guarantee you will see the nation’s grafters who work hard in often poorly paid jobs, pay their taxes, obey the law, and do their best to raise their families.

Women and ethnic minorities are overrepresented on these journeys, and I sometimes play a game with myself trying to guess their jobs – health staff, cleaners, construction workers, shop staff and call centre operatives.

If a party wants to gain power it should ensure that every single policy in the manifesto passes one simple test – will it make the lives of these people better?

The reason politicians, both left and right, have become so disconnected from their voters is that you don’t often see them shivering in the pouring rain at a bus stop at 5am, or catching the 6.18 crowded train into Leeds.

As the general election gets closer we are starting to get some idea of what a Labour government will look like, and it is not an encouraging sight.

…the radical ideas, like the green growth plan, have to be ditched. Anyone expecting sweeping progressive changes under Labour is likely to be sorely disappointed.

Instead Labour seems increasingly likely to concentrate on toxic culture war issues that mean little to most people beyond the ideologues and fanatics.

Take for example two recent policy pledges. One is to impose VAT on private school fees, and the other is to close so-called loopholes in the fox hunting ban by outlawing drag hunting.

Sure the vindictive class warriors will love this, but I look around the carriage on my early morning train and ask myself, would such policies make the lives of my fellow passengers any better? No, of course not. It would not make the blindest bit of difference.

Come the general election voters will be faced with an uninspiring choice between a Conservative party that has run out of steam, and a Labour party that never had any puff in the first place.

I am convinced that if any party produced a manifesto that passed my early morning train test it would win by a landslide.

[Bill Carmichael, in the Yorkshire Post].

Not 100% right, but 90%+.

The problem is that only social-nationalism can really satisfy Britain’s requirements, but the “Zionist”/pro-Israel element jumps upon even tiny social-national parties, movements, fora etc, and makes constant complaint to police, regulators etc, in order to prevent any tiny social-national party etc becoming a large one.

Our form of Parliamentary democracy has failed because (((a certain element))) has choked it.

Until the ground is cleared, it will be hard for Britain to start to live again.

If anyone —such as the absurd political “ho”, Liz Truss— thinks that bureaucracy in the UK is worse than that of the USA, he or —in this case, she— has evidently never lived in the United States.

Liz Truss is a dangerous woman, though, despite her idiocy. Instead of accepting her political demise and defenestration, she is “doubling the bet” by saying that the Deep State etc got rid of her, and that she was right about the economy and society all along.

Truss’s strategy is obvious. The Conservative Party is going straight down with the electorate. Nothing can save it. The only chance, and a slight one, is that Starmer/Labour makes such a poor impression in the next few months that people will vote Con to stop Labour getting a huge majority. Very unlikely.

On that premise, Sunak, the little Indian money-juggler presently posing as Prime Minister, is toast. Maybe even before, but more likely after, GE 2024. The question then becomes who replaces Sunak. There are no candidates popular with either the public or the Conservative MPs and/or rank-and-file. On that basis, Truss seems to feel that she has as much chance as any of the other present possibilities (Mordaunt, Cleverly, Tugendhat, Suella Braverman etc).

Imagine Cleverly as Prime Minister! Or “chocolate soldier” Tugendhat. Still, Liz Truss was quite as absurd, really, as was “Boris”-idiot, as was Theresa May.

If, as predicted, Conservative MPs reduce in number to 100, or even 50, the pool will be small. Almost anyone in that small pool might have a chance. A chance, that is, of becoming Leader of the Conservative Party, not of becoming Prime Minister.

There it is, in a nutshell. Feral blacks (mostly), and sometimes others, uncontrolled by either society or any personal subjective value-system.

Interesting. I was unaware that this involved more “trans” nonsense.

I am usually against the death penalty, but there may be exceptions, cases where society needs to “excommunicate” a particularly unpleasant or evil individual or group.

It may seem fanciful to say that the endless lies of the msm, from the cat-killing murdering Chinese supposedly being a “woman”, to the “Covid” narrative, and the dangerous fake “vaccines” etc (oh, and the idea that most immigrants are somehow useful to our society) derive from the whole “holocaust” farrago of the past half-century or so, but this disregard for actual truth and actual fact started somewhere; it did not suddenly appear from nowhere, and it is getting ever more pronounced in our society.

Certainly when the individuals concerned are not even European.

I disagree with Goodwin on a few points, especially his pro-Israel and pro-Jewish lobby stances, but overall I agree with that.

There is no military solution to the conflict in Ukraine and it must be resolved through negotiations,” said Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

A simple mathematical calculation shows that Russia is militarily superior, and that Ukraine will not be, if the West does not intervene. However, NATO does not want war and will not go to war. It is necessary to ask for a ceasefire, because it is impossible to bring Russia to its knees in the military plan” , said the Hungarian Prime Minister.

In fact, though Orban is correct in assuming that the Kiev regime simply cannot “win”, he is not entirely correct in assuming that there is “no military solution“, because Russia could “win”, at least to the extent of seizing all of Eastern Ukraine, and all of the Black Sea littoral.

I had assumed as much, because the Israelis have only claimed to have cleared a relatively few miles of tunnels, whereas it was said initially that Hamas has 200-300 miles of tunnels, which may or may not be interconnected. Probably some are not connected to the others.

I have to say that I find tunnels fascinating, but am very glad that I am not one of the soldiers (on either side) fighting either to defend them or to clear them.

I think that, sooner or later, maybe within 10 years, things will come full circle, and the cities of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem etc will find themselves on the receiving end of even greater destruction.

Ukraine war

Happened to listen to BBC Radio 4 Today Programme for a few minutes in the car. A correspondent was talking about the drone attacks on Moscow, and saying that prior to the Russian invasion, there had been no attacks, and so these attacks were happening only because of the Russian invasion.

Superficially true, in that Russia proper was never attacked before the invasion of early 2022, but what was not mentioned was the 8 years of artillery bombardment (and bombing) of the Russian-speaking and/or pro-Russian areas of formerly-Ukraine territory, particularly Donetsk, starting in 2014.

I waited to hear who was giving what was basically a lying-by-omission account of things. Turned out that it was “Steve Rosenberg, Russia Editor“. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Rosenberg]. What a surprise. Or not.

Ostalgie?

I visited Poland several times in the late 1980s, spending maybe 2 months or so there altogether. I also once spent a few days travelling by car from Poland to West Germany, so I saw small parts of the southern regions of the DDR (East Germany) at that time (summer 1988). I have blogged about it previously. A strange-seeming society, very very different from the Bundesrepublik (West Germany).

The DDR was a very controlled group-dictatorship: rule by the few (Communists), of course, and in most respects the DDR was very inferior to the Bundesrepublik, but the situation was not entirely black and white. Few things are.

The Ukrainian army will begin to lose control over the situation along the entire front, as is the case in the Kharkiv region, former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter wrote in an article for Sputnik. “The thinning of Ukrainian defense lines has provided Russian forces with new opportunities.” This resulted in great successes in the area of ​​Kupjansk. The armed forces of Ukraine will continue to weaken as they suffer losses, and gaps will appear in their defense that the Russian army can use to break through,” the expert predicts.”

Black Africa. That’s where the wealth goes— into the pockets of a few corrupt bastards…

There can be little doubt that, as the Ukrainian (Kiev regime) counter-offensive is failing, the air war is heating up. If Russia keeps getting attacked from the air, even if only by drones, the response may be devastating.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12342491/Controversial-plan-relocate-English-National-Opera-outside-London-postponed-three-years-Arts-Council-gives-2029-move.html

How ridiculous, to move a successful company like English National Opera out of its long-established home to some provincial centre.

Most countries concentrate their cultural treasures in terms of opera, ballet etc in one city, usually the national capital, a concentration of cultural forces. Moscow, Paris, etc. Not all, but the exceptions are countries which were only unified (or created) in the 19thC (Germany and Italy, the USA).

By all means tour around the UK, but base yourself in London. Also, the concentration of cultural companies in London leads to cross-fertilization of the arts.

The most important thing is to keep a bloc of white Northern Europeans intact, because that bloc can be the foundation for a later “super-race”, one far ahead of where we are now. That foundation has to be “post-Aryan” and white European; the other races and groups cannot provide such a foundation. The later “super-race” will be a quantum leap in human evolution. The other races and ethnicities will be left behind, just as, compared to our world of today, previous forms of humanity have been left behind.

Israel-puppet Rachel Reeves. She would never acknowledge that a large number of organizations including banks and law firms have been promoting —and, in many cases, over-promoting— women for virtue-signalling and box-ticking reasons for about 30 years. I myself have seen many examples.

Apart from that, the ridiculous woman implicated in the latest Coutts/NatWest scandal was getting £2M a year for that job, and had —and still has— several other very extremely lucrative appointments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alison_Rose_(banker); https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alison_Rose_(banker)#External_appointments.

I think that it is time to impose an income cap, at least on mere office-holders (as distinct from genuine entrepreneurs such as Dyson).

One correction: as far as I can see, the only “neo-Nazi problem” that Ukraine has is that so few “neo-Nazis” seem to exist there. If that is wrong, why do they tolerate Zelensky’s corrupt, brutal, and shambolic NWO/ZOG tyranny?

Interesting. Usually, the “instructor” in such a situation would be the one from the army of the state, not from the private military company. However, who knows from where that “instructor” has come, in career terms? Russian Spetsnaz? The post-Soviet VDV? These are not fake “mercenaries” as once found in Soldier of Fortune etc. They are a very serious fighting force.

Sad report

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66317374

A historic royal census, known as “swan upping”, has revealed a 40% drop in the number of cygnets on the River Thames, compared with last year.

The decline has been blamed on avian flu but also a growing problem of violence, including shootings, catapult attacks and dogs killing swans.

[BBC]

I was saddened to hear, on BBC Radio 3 news this morning, that same report, i.e. that the number of swans counted on the Thames this year is about 40% lower than in previous years, and that, worse yet, part of the decline is because of “increased violence towards swans“. Jesus Christ! What sort of horrible bastards are cruel to swans?! They should be flayed alive if caught mistreating swans.

Having said that, there was always a small amount of such badness. I remember rowing my inflatable boat, with someone from my school, down the then-still-closed river Kennet in 1971, and seeing a dead swan in the water. The swan was obviously not long dead. That happened somewhere between Newbury and Reading. Not long after having seen the dead swan, we passed an unpleasant-looking young man on the bank, not older than about 20, with some kind of rifle or air-rifle. Were the two sights connected? I think probably they were.

Incidentally, the Kennet, and connected Kennet and Avon, was then only navigable by carrying the boat around disused locks, over barbed-wire fences etc. Since then, volunteers have been able to re-open the waterway to traffic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennet_and_Avon_Canal.

As if “Jack Monroe” is going to do any of that…

She hopes that her critics will tire of trying to enlighten the public (including the 397 utter mugs still —as of today— sending her a total of several thousand pounds per month via Patreon). If the critics tire, then she can resume (on a larger scale) her decade-long career of “grifting” and defrauding and embezzling and “cosplaying”, as may be convenient for her; maybe even get onto Question Time again (which does not usually pay, but does tend to validate her with the msm in general and with the uninformed majority of the public.

Ignorant Jewish talking head Emily Maitlis, hugely overpaid by the BBC thanks to the outdated and tyrannical “licence fee” system, wilfully fails to see the bigger point about freedom of expression. I can only assume that she is unaware that other people, less famous than Nigel Farage, have also been “cancelled” for having the “wrong” views (i.e. anti-System views), people such as Mark Collett, Laura Towler, Sam Melia (all of Patriotic Alternative), and others. They all lost their personal bank accounts, and they were not “cancelled” by Coutts but by standard high street banks such as Barclays and (I think) Halifax.

You hear much (and rightly so) about the attempted bank account cancellation of Farage, but where were Laurence Fox, the “Free Speech Union”, Toby Young etc when those other victims had their bank accounts cancelled? Where were those “champions of free speech” when Alison Chabloz was imprisoned for posting online legitimate satire about Jewish and Zionist behaviour, or during my continuing persecution at the hands of the Jew-Zionist lobby? Absent.

Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby…

I agree on every single one of those.

Ukraine (Kiev regime) cannot win this war; indeed, without having been propped up by vast amounts of money, arms, ammunition, clothing, food etc from the West, it would already be totally on its knees.

He left out a fourth aspect— Jewish-Zionist control (of banks, businesses and commerce, legal services, newspapers, television, radio, and pseudo-democratic politics).

Scotland

Pakistani “Scotsman”, SNP Leader and First Minister of Scotland Humza Yousaf, now proposes the flooding of Scotland with new huge numbers of Pakistani and other migrant-invaders.

If that were ever to happen as proposed, many migrant-invaders would take up Scottish citizenship purely in order to, sooner or later, relocate to England. That in turn would entail the building of…a wall…to keep them out. Certainly the construction of border fortifications.

In reality, though, it will almost certainly never happen. Even bearing in mind the pseudo-nationalist idiocy that leads to nearly half of the Scottish electorate voting SNP (that’s right— the SNP has never garnered even half of Scottish votes), this must surely give even die-hard SNP supporters pause.

Yousaf may just have cost the SNP a goodly portion of its votes.

I usually steer clear of commenting on Scottish politics, but think that faux-“Independence” is losing traction.

People should not be treated in such a shabby manner (by the NHS system, not staff), yet the story above is almost commonplace in some parts of the UK.

The NHS has some wonderful people in it, a minority also not so good, but what really lets it down is maladministration. Money is a large part of the problem, but is not the whole story by any means.

There is also the point that the UK population has increased from about 55 million half a century ago to maybe as many as 70 million today, mainly (in fact almost entirely) because of mass immigration, and also births to immigrant mothers. Yes, quite a few non-Brits work in the NHS, but that hardly outweighs the pressure from FIFTEEN MILLION more potential patients (who should not even be in this country).

Pressure from immigration etc would not have been a factor in the above story (which comes from Northern Ireland), but it is a factor in much of the UK.

Arthur’s Stone

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2022/jul/22/weird-wonderful-rare-dig-at-arthurs-stone-writes-new-story-of-neolithic-site.

I recall camping only about 20-30 feet from Arthur’s Stone sometime in the early 1980s. My then girlfriend and I just happened upon it one dark late evening; in fact we had never heard of it. A convenient place to stop the car and pitch a small tent. Very quiet. Zero traffic (except us).

Sounds as if it is a bit of a tourist destination now, but then I think not. I do not think we heard a single car pass in the night until, at about 0200 hrs, a torch was shone into my face. A policeman. He asked whether we had heard a car pass in the past hour; we said no, we were sleeping. He said OK and left. I expect that he made that story up as an excuse for disturbing us.

Arthur’s Stone is about 15 miles west of Hereford, and is on a very narrow and little-used (even now, I expect) lane. I have trekked, at various times, across much of the countryside between Hereford and Hay-on-Wye and around (but many many years ago, in much younger and far fitter days).

Looking at Google Earth, I see that it now has a low wooden fence, about 2 ft high, around it. Don’t recall that, but (as we know) memory, even my memory, can be faulty.

The Guardian

So the virtue-signalling Guardian’s editor has a salary of £510,000 a year! No wonder the Guardian‘s one-time “socialism” is rather muted these days…

Incidentally, I believe that Ms. Viner’s personal “partner” makes even more than she does.

GMG also paid its former chief executive Annette Thomas £795,000 after she left following a clash with Ms Viner over the direction of the business. Ms Thomas received a “one-off” payment on top of her £630,000 base salary, meaning she made £1.5m in 15 months on the job.

[Daily Mail]

Annual revenues at GMG climbed 13pc to £255.8m and profits rose nearly four-fold to £11.7m.

The Guardian does not have a paywall but instead relies on donations made by readers.

Over one million people made monthly contributions of at least £1 a month, while another 500,000 readers made one-off payments.

[Daily Telegraph]

Incredible, really: a million mugs give £1+ each monthly to the Guardian, meaning £12 million a year, while another half-million mugs make one-off payments each year, meaning £500,000+, probably £1M or more.

So… the profits of nearly £12M are because those million or so mugs are donating about the same amount, and maybe several million pounds more. Those donations make the difference between insolvency and significant profitability.

Meanwhile, the editor gets paid half a million pounds —and more— annually.

The wonderful world of pseudo-socialism.

Interesting. I would not dismiss such an invention out of hand.

The top of the slippery slope? All the same, something has to be done to address both the NHS funding gap and (equally important) maladministration in the NHS.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Lansley; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Lansley#Suggested_conflicts_of_interest]. Time for useful change now.

The perennial NHS crisis. Pretty much every year for 20-30 years. As said, something gamechanging has to be done both about the NHS and about the mass immigration that puts intolerable strain upon it.

Does not look English, but that could describe half of the population of London.

Tweeters already covered what would be my main suggestion, i.e. to check cctv at the two or three nearest Boots branches.

You do have to be very careful in London now. When I lived in London, and later in Almaty (Kazakhstan), in the mid/late 1990s, I always wore one of my Rolex Seadweller watches (in today’s value, over £10,000).

I doubt that I would do that today, if I had such a watch (in fact, I sold my watches long long ago from necessity…needs must), especially if I used the London Underground (as I often did when in London).

When I lived in Almaty, where (at the time, i.e. 1996-97), credit cards were almost useless, I always carried USD $5,000-$10,000 in a special moneybelt made to look exactly like an ordinary belt. I never had any serious trouble, though there was once a scuffle with a “wild” (unofficial) taxi driver (no real harm done— my sunglasses broken, a good shirt torn, but his face improved after connection with my elbow…).

As a visitor or tourist in a foreign city, you do have to be careful. I was once, 40 years ago, doing some petty nonsense at the now-closed Paddington Green police station [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paddington_Green_Police_Station]. In the reception area. Two Egyptian girls, tourists, came in, wailing. The police desk person could scarcely have been less helpful to them, almost contemptuous, when he heard that one of the girls had had her handbag snatched, along with £800 in it (a great deal higher value then than now, of course; you could probably call it as much as £10,000 in today’s money).

Sadly, the police now are usually useless unless the crime is something they have been told is top-priority, such as cases of murder, “terrorism”, saying rude things online about Jews etc.

I hope that the lady in that Twitter thread gets her stuff back, but it is a long-shot, of course. Her best bet is probably to set up a gofundme appeal, but that will of course not help with the identity documents she lost.

At least the lady’s case has now been taken up by police CID (see below):

People are often careless with bags etc. I found a woman’s strapless bag, a bit like a large wallet, in a shopping trolley in one of the trolley bays in the car park of the Waitrose in the local small town, about a year ago. Opened it out of curiosity before I gave it in to the Waitrose reception desk. Full of cards, dozens of them; quite a bit of cash as well.

A few years ago, not long after sunup, I happened to see a purse on the ground, in a clifftop car park. Inside, nearly £50 in notes, a debit card, and a student rail pass in the name of some girl. I brought it home thinking that it must be fairly local (the rail pass having been issued about 5 miles away), and that the unusual surname might be in the telephone book. No luck, so I gave it to the police at the local police station.

I hope that the girl student got back her cards and money. As to what she might have been doing late at night (presumably) in that clifftop car park, well, that is none of my business…

Incidentally, lest readers of the blog think that I am unnaturally virtuous, I have to admit that, were it a million pounds in a suitcase, my actions might be quite different.

I think that most police forces do not even bother now with mere lost property. After all, their valuable time is taken up by policing the Internet etc…
