[The thoughts below were first published in 2023. I think they still stand up well]
Stray thoughts
You often hear or see the statement “The Third Reich was terrible because [whatever].” Often cited is euthanasia of the terribly mentally or even physically disabled etc. Few consider that that or similar happened also in the USA, UK etc in the 1930s, though not often admitted to.
When people today say that they are, say, Roman Catholic, do other people say “so you support the Inquisition?!” or “so you support the torture and genocide of the Cathars?!” No…yet the same or similar questioners might say to someone who is social-national politically, “so you support euthanasia of the badly-disabled?!” or “you support gassing Jews?!” (leaving aside the doubtful proposition about whether the fabled “gas chambers” even existed). They might as well demand an answer to the question “so you want to invade Poland?!“.
Point made, I think.
I happened to see the above when looking at old blog posts recently hit from some country or other; words I published nearly 3 years ago.

This Spitting Image Mastermind spoof doesn't actually mention the now taboo word "intifada" but it does detail Israel's murderous responses to what was a non-violent uprising known at the time as The Intifada. This was 1989, a freer time. pic.twitter.com/f2EdapbNaD

I travel to Cancun and isla mujeres (near Cancun) pretty frequently. Last time I was there I was so surprised by how many restaurants and stores were ONLY in Hebrew. It felt like there was an Israeli occupation of sorts going on in Mexico.
[“WHAT!!?? A teacher in an English school was accused of posing a risk to children and referred to the Government’s counter-terrorism programme after showing Donald Trump videos to his US politics class. The teacher, who is in his 50s, told The Telegraph he was “likened to a terrorist” after showing the videos, including one of Mr Trump’s inauguration, to A-level students. Henley College, a sixth-form in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, with more than 2,000 students, reported the politics lecturer to the local child safeguarding authority, which concluded a referral to Prevent was a “priority”. Insane.“]
When I was just 16, in late 1973, having dropped out of school [https://rbcs.org.uk/], I spent about a month at Henley College. Most of the students and staff were pretty thick. I especially remember one lecturer who was hugely offended because I attacked (verbally) Robert “Maxwell”; his reputation, not his corpulent person.
At that time, Maxwell was mainly known as a big businessman who was also resident in Oxfordshire, a few miles north of Oxford. This was 20 years before it became known that he had been defrauding his own Daily Mirror employees’ pension fund (in fact, this was years before Maxwell bought the Mirror; his main company then was Pergamon Press). Few knew then, in 1973, that Maxwell was a major MOSSAD asset.
I have an instinct. I knew that the bastard must be a fraud. Not just because he was a Jew, by the way.
I recall that silly staff member of Henley College getting really angry at me, and being so despite his not even being a Jew, as far as I could see. Well, as I say, most of the staff were pretty stupid people.
As for “Prevent”, I assessed it many years ago, in 2018:
Many Jews hate Christianity far more than they hate Islam, though that is usually concealed. Israel, the state of Israel, needs the stupid “Christian Zionists” as “useful idiots” to influence policy in Western capitals; the “Christian Zionists” are widespread in the USA, far less so in the UK, and pretty rare in Roman Catholic countries.

Cannot “afford” to hold elections, cannot “afford” to pay their soldiers, yet they persist in fighting Russia, one of the richest and most militarily-strong countries in the world.
Kirill Dmitriev, Special Representative of the Russian President, Head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, called for acknowledging the existence of well-funded and well-organized campaigns inciting war in the US, UK, and EU media:https://t.co/Xhf928BHjXpic.twitter.com/WT7GX1bTKf
The pernicious campaign inciting war between the West including, perhaps especially, the UK, and Russia, is ubiquitous. Such a war would be even more disastrous than the Second World War.
Far fewer than usual. Either the Kiev regime is running short on drones, or is planning a spectacular mass attack, using hoarded drones. Probably the latter.

The Chief of the General Staff of the Israeli Army, Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir, warned that the army would strike at Israel's enemies "wherever necessary, both on the near and far fronts", apparently hinting that Israel would be forced to strike Iran again.
From the horse’s mouth. Israel will be using Jews who live outside Israel to “monitor” non-Jews in their own countries; that Israel/”diaspora” nexus will not only be “monitoring” anti-Israel content, but trying to suppress it, and to repress those posting it. That nexus will also be creating false narratives etc.
It is already happening, in fact. AIPAC in the USA, the “CST” and malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] in the UK etc. You see it elsewhere too, France, Australia etc.

Russia’s world leadership will not arrive for another 1,500 years but, in the meantime, Russia must be allowed to develop in its own way, not as a field of exploitation by Western profiteers.
"Most people who enter Britain through asylum routes have low employment rates, low wages, are economically inactive, and if they are working then they earn a median salary of just £20,000 for men and £18,000 for women."https://t.co/5QluSPB5P1
It seems to me that both main (or formerly “main”) System parties are living in a world of delusion in which, after events or scandals or propaganda attack ads, the disenchanted British voters will ditch their new-found support for Reform and the Greens, and will return to the old comfortable (?) fold as Con and Lab voters. Not going to happen, in my view. The old loyalties and habits have been shattered by the betrayals by both Lab and Con (and their palpable incompetence, as well).
Andrew Neil is right. About absolutely everything.
When leaders start treating elections as optional…
They usually discover too late… that voters stop treating them as legitimate.
So the knackers yard boiling pots are warming up nicely for Starmer.
[“NEW: The Government is set to announce the “biggest animal welfare reforms” in a generation – Ban puppy farming by reforming dog breeding rules – Ban electric shock collars on pets pending a consultation – Ban trail hunting amid concerns it is being used as a smokescreen for illegal fox hunting – Introduce humane slaughter rules for farmed fish to prevent avoidable pain during killing – Phase out colony cages for laying hens, which restrict movement and natural behaviours like nesting and perching, and pig farrowing crates, which confine mother pigs and stop them turning around after giving birth – Ban snare traps that can catch pets and cause suffering for animals – Reform the use of carbon dioxide to stun pigs after evidence it causes distress and suffering – Ban shooting hares during the breeding season (roughly from February to September) so young hares are not left without mothers.”]
For once, I thoroughly approve of all the new government measures (re. animal welfare) but, as tweeter Sophie Meaden says, both Muslim halal and Jewish kosher slaughter must also be banned.
Naturally, Starmer-stein’s government would not ban “Semitic” forms of slaughter, because 1. this is a totally “occupied” Labour Friends of Israel government which 2. in terms of numbers of actual votes is dependent on UK-resident Muslims.
I might add that I suspect that these (otherwise welcome) animal welfare measures are being brought in partly to —so to speak— shoot the Green Party’s fox, and cut some support ground from underneath the Greens.
I genuinely can’t understand a word she says and that’s not me being cruel when I say that.
The comedy industry has been absolutely destroyed due to the Marxist ideologies being pushed throughout the West.
Quite. By the same token, while I am sorry for those with disabilities, I oppose the near-worship exemplified by the Paralympics. The Olympics are supposed to be “Faster, Higher, Stronger“, so having a kind of parallel for-the-disabled sports-fest does not seem to be quite right, though I take little interest in sports anyway, so that is not a major issue for me.
As to comedy, I have no idea who the featured individual is (or what she is saying, as tweeter Sophie Meaden says) but Ms. Meaden’s view is surely correct.
There is a kind of madness abroad in this country now. It is seen in various realms, and was very obvious during the truly ridiculous and absurd “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic of 2020-2022. Examples: the range of ludicrous “measures” taken (facemask nonsense, “social distancing”, “furlough” payments, fraudulent business loans or grants, the toytown police of the toytown police state checking people’s shopping, and arresting people out of a drive or a walk or sitting on benches at the seaside).
Mad. All mad. Oh, and who could forget the ridiculous “clap for the NHS” nonsense?
As to comedy, it dies when the State, or the System, mandates what cannot be said, or who can or cannot be laughed at. Thus the Soviet Union had a magazine called Krokodil, supposedly satirical, but it could only laugh at approved targets, so not the CPSU (Communist Party), not socialism as a system etc. The same thing has now happened (since the early 1990s) in the UK. Example: the lame Have I Got News for You show. Private Eye magazine, too.
No comedian who wants to be on TV or radio, or even in theatres, can make fun of Jews, blacks, or a range of other groups or events or types.
We now have an ever-tightening noose of censorship. The “bad law” Communications Act 2003, s.127, for example, is frequently abused by the malicious Jew-Zionists such as, in fact mainly, the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.
In fact, the Jewish/Israel lobby is behind much, though not all, of the anti-free speech activity in the UK. The Muslim element too, though much less so. Then there is the pervasive “political correctness” or “woke” influence.
I have a few good cartoons illustrating all that but, because they featured as Prosecution evidence in my 2023 free speech trial, I prefer not to republish them at present. Q.E.D.
Poll by @LordAshcroft (not British Polling Council member) in Mail on Sunday has Reform 25% -2 Con 22% +2 Green 19% +1 Lab 18% nc Lib Dem 10% -1 11-15 Dec, change since Nov pic.twitter.com/YgP9t7N2wU
Somewhat different from other polls of the past few months. Translates to a Commons with about 283 Reform UK MPs (about 30 short of an overall majority), Cons 111 (far better than all other recent polls; not far short of their present position; and they would be the Opposition, if not in some kind of compact with Reform, which would be not unlikely), 64 Lab, 60 Greens, 50 LibDems, and 44 SNP [etc].
Lord Ashcroft’s polling has been accurate in the past. It may just be that the electorate is very volatile at present.
The Labour party’s decision to tie itself to the Netanyahu govt for inexplicable reasons has allowed the Green Party to surge and will lose them their seats in London and all the big cities. What a moral, strategic and political catastrophe that policy has been.
We have reached a crucial turning point. Is it a crime to criticize Jews? Poland has to break free of Jewish thought control by acquitting Gregor Braun. https://t.co/l43XzP4igI
[“Warsaw, Poland — In one of the most politically charged trials in recent Polish history, MP and nationalist leader.@GrzegorzBraun_ delivered a dramatic and controversial defense statement in court. He directly referred to the writings and teachings of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson — whose portrait was displayed in the Polish Parliament — arguing that the ideology expressed in those texts discriminates against non-Jews and violates the Polish Constitution. Prosecutors accuse Braun of hate-motivated offenses and disruption of a religious ceremony during the 2023 Hanukkah event inside the Sejm. His immunity has already been removed by both Polish and European institutions, opening the way for a full criminal trial.“]
May another major war in Central and Western Europe be averted, and that already raging in Eastern Europe come to an end.
A Merry Christmas and Yuletide to all well-intentioned readers of the blog.
A reminder that our time on this Earth in any one incarnation is limited and that we must do what can be done to create the basis for a quantum leap in human and planetary evolution.
[Alternativ fur Deutschland election poster, which reads “We protect your children“]
Very amusing, but that AfD poster makes an important point, which is that the core of our political philosophy must reach out to the future, to the as-yet-unborn generations who will eventually make a quantum leap in human evolution.
[Germany 1945— “We are fighting for the future of our children!“]
“You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in which their bodies have long decayed.
Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will and courage.
You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass your blood on to your children, for you are a member of the chain of generations that reaches from the past into eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent must do its part so that the chain is never broken.
But if your blood has traits that will make your children unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will lives.”

What would happen if —and as may happen— Nigel Farage and Reform UK do achieve a breakthrough, and Farage really does become Prime Minister (perhaps in 2028 or 2029)?
In that situation, the question devolves to “what then?“.
The country will still be full of migrant-invaders, even if migration-invasion were to be halted overnight. The country will still only be about 80%, perhaps by then only 70%, European (i.e. “white”). The Jewish/Zionist lobby will still be in positions of power in finance, business, mainstream media, the legal system, and politics. The country will still be in a situation of societal and cultural degeneracy. The country will still be in a continuing and serious economic decline.
Social-nationalism is the only alternative to the dystopian collapse of society which can already be seen, in outline, in the UK.
Reform UK is a way out of the immediate dead-on-its-feet present political mess made by the System parties, and may presage a shifting of the Overton Window among the public as well, but is only part of the journey, not the destination.
As I predicted on the blog even before he became Prime Minister, Starmer is incapable of doing the job even to a mediocre extent. Hopeless, as well as being a 100% puppet of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby.
Starmer is now saying that local elections due in 2025 may “have to be” “delayed”. Banana republic tactics.
Starmer, and/or (((the lobby))) behind Starmer, intends to enfranchise 16-y-o voters. A desperate and ill-advised ploy. Those young people will not necessarily vote Labour. Under Corbyn, they might have, but that was years ago. Among the young, the young (real) English, the “Overton Window” may be moving faster than among the older population. As for Starmer himself, he has no mental flexibility (as I predicted). For a former senior barrister, he is or seems very slow on his feet. A box-ticker.
Starmer may think that those aged 16 or 17 will vote Labour. As Labour now is, I doubt it. What future have the young in contemporary Britain? Not much. That may translate into radical protest, albeit possibly of a lazy “slacktivist” kind. Reform UK is pretty much the only game in town, unless you count the Greens.
Good point, if obvious. The voters have clutched at the “Boris”-idiot pseudo-Conservative straw, the “Labour” straw, so why not the Reform UK straw?
The public, in a sense, are to blame. They are more interested, even now, in rubbish such as football matches, The X Factor, Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Strictly Come Dancing, and similar garbage, than in the fact that a million non-whites are invading this country every year, or in the housing crisis (connected to the invasion, of course), or in the slide in educational and cultural —and behavioural— standards.
There again, those —often (((those)))— who control or influence the mainstream media are the real villains of the piece.

Hypocrisy unlimited. The Leeds-based Jew-Zionist barrister Simon Myerson is a prominent member or supporter of the two main Jew-Zionist Israel-lobby groups that have persecuted me over a decade or more, namely the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, and “UK Lawyers for Israel” (“UKLFI”), the memberships of which overlap to some extent. Both have complained about me, maliciously, either to the Bar Standards Board or to the police, or both, as well as to Twitter/X and others. See below:
As for Myerson himself, he was sacked as a Recorder (part-time judge) in the Spring of 2024 after having failed to temper his outbursts on social media.
[“Get down there where you wanted to send me, you unclean spirit“]
Incidentally, Myerson himself was threatened (by others) with complaints to the Bar regulators, some years ago, and immediately activated the “usual” “victim” mode, whining about people wanting to deprive him of his living just because of his tweets (which, he whined, were part of his private, not professional, life)! Self-awareness— zero.

Without the monies effectively gifted to them by the West over the past 80 years, the Saudis and other Gulf Arabs would have nothing. Backwardness dignified by unearned riches.

The kefuffle around the crowdfunder launched by “Dr” Louise Raw to (ostensibly) sue Jeremy Clarkson continues, with people not only saying that it is doomed on its own terms (for legal reasons, and as I pointed out a few days ago on the blog), but suggesting that the whole thing is a “grift” or near-(?) fraud by Louise Raw, something which I doubted when I wrote about it (if only because it seemed to me that it would be difficult to get away with a blatant fraud of that sort). Maybe I was too kind.
As to why gofundme was used instead of The crowdjustice platform, I also believe that refunds are possible via crowdjustice to the campaign donors
You’re quite right that the money will be paid out to Louise Raw, unless she has nominated a Beneficiary in accordance with GFM’s terms and conditions. If she had, that would appear on the crowdfunding page. Once in her control, she has no contractual obligation to account for it
Oh and this claim about “every single penny” isn’t strictly true, as GFM charge platform fees for using their service. Also, donation of a surplus fund in this form deprives charities of Gift Aid that UK taxpayer donors might otherwise lawfully claim on their donations pic.twitter.com/uRBiGdXIbV
I had thought that Louise Raw would not want to taint her “militant” or pseudo-revolutionary image to her mug followers on Twitter by keeping some of the money for her own use. On the other hand, the said “woke” mug Twitter followers are usually pretty dim, as can be seen in some of their responses to the legal critique of this doomed attempt to sue Clarkson.
Come to that, look at the fundraiser promoted by Roanna Carleton-Taylor on behalf of “grifting” fake “historian” and “journalist”, Mike Stuchbery (along with some Paki-stani solicitor whose name I forget). They raised about £12,000, which as far as I know has never since seen the light of day.
Unless I discover otherwise, I shall believe that, on the balance of probabilities, those monies were split between “Roanna” and Stuchbery, with the solicitor getting a bit by way of “professional fees” (for doing almost nothing but sending one letter to Tommy Robinson). Certainly, no legal action was ever launched. About 800 “woke” mugs donated to that crowdfunder.
Stuchbery still has over 88,000 Twitter followers, though Roanna Carleton-Taylor has apparently withdrawn from online activism (I have no idea whether or not the police took an interest in her and/or her husband’s other activities, as claimed by some people). Anyway, there it is.
Then, of course, we have —what increasingly looks like— a continuing and outright “grift” by the so-called “Bootstrap Cook”, who calls herself “Jack Monroe”.
As of today, 643 mugs, donating regularly via Patreon, are closing their eyes to the very telling exposures of “Jack Monroe” which have appeared since, especially, August 2022; they are supplying her, in aggregate, with monies amounting to some sum between £2,300 and £30,000 each month. Maybe, at a pure guess, about £6,000 or so, monthly. Probably taxfree, too.
“Jack Monroe” also had a crowdfund appeal going from May 2022, ostensibly in order that she could sue MP Lee Anderson and political activist/commentator Martin Daubney. People donated, but (quelle surprise) the “defamation case” has never been initiated, and the monies donated have disappeared into what might be called the “Jack Monroe” lifestyle fund…
“Jack Monroe”, despite everything, not only still has that cadre of 643 utter mugs sending her money every month, but also has no fewer than 563,000 “followers” on Twitter.
Even that ridiculous West Indian woman who caused a fuss recently at Buckingham Palace, and who literally “cosplays” as a tribal African, not only managed to rip off £170,000 before people started to look into the affairs of her blacks-only “charity”, but also, tellingly, has since then managed to get hundreds of mugs to donate another £36,000 in order to help to buy “her charity” a house. Unglaublich!
In other words, those “grifters” have not at all been damaged by what some have been calling outright theft of donated monies, because they make the right sort of “politically correct” or “woke” noises.
Perhaps that is what will happen to Louise Raw’s crowdfunder, i.e. a small amount will go to a solicitor, and Counsel, in return for a nicely-written Advice advising that legal action against Clarkson is impossible, after which Louise Raw will (I speculate, of course) keep whatever is left, perhaps donating a thousand or so to a domestic violence charity (on the publicized record, for public show).
Louise Raw is notably reticent with some information, e.g. as to her own background, including where she studied for her “doctorate” (if any) and her first and Master’s degrees (if any). It may be that she never will give information as to where the bulk of the monies raised went (or shall we say “disappeared”?). All she would have to do, on that hypothesis, is to say that the monies went to suitable “good causes” and that the “good causes” “requested no publicity” or some such. “Jack Monroe” has tried that one in the past, and the mug donors just accepted it as true, so…

Legal grift. It has the added bonus of getting you the approbation of the Good People who think Good Things.
The first tweet above of course refers to 1. The absurd Marlene-something-posing-as-African; 2. “Jack Monroe” (and her dog’s dinner “cooking”); 3. Dr. Julia Grace Patterson (was very briefly an NHS doctor, now lives off “grifting” and/or selling useless facemasks etc); 4. Either Louise Raw, or notorious fox-batterer Jolyon Maugham, the narcissistic New Zealand-educated barrister and “activist”, and his largely pointless “Good Law Project” (anyone who saw his lamentable ignorance on Christmas University Challenge recently might prefer to keep their money).
Incidentally, I just saw a few tweets by “Jack Monroe” about how hard it was for her (supposedly a recovering alcoholic) to find mince pies in the supermarket made without alcohol. Surely a quasi-professional cook would make her own, especially at Christmas? Oh, well, there it is.
She is attempting not only to crowdfund but to crowdsource the victims of the proposed harassment claim, as if that would be effective in any way, given the wording of the statute
Those refer to Louise Raw and her stupid (or maybe not so stupid, if indeed it is a “grift”) crowdfunder.
I was just trying to remember what were the best fees I myself ever got for one-off written Advices when I was at the Bar. I do not include advice given when I was a salaried lawyer overseas in the late 1990s (Kazakhstan, Caribbean, elsewhere), and provided to large companies such as Raytheon, because I was then charged out at about USD $400 an hour, but that money went to the law firm(s), not me personally.
I think that the best fees for basic written Advices that I myself ever had were somewhere in the region of (in the money of 15-30 years ago) somewhat short of a thousand pounds (you could/might double that to put it in the money of 2022), so fairly modest compared to Counsel in the best —or best-padded— chambers.
I do recall, when working in Charleston (South Carolina) in 2002, telephoning to London to ask the Clerk of one of the top company law chambers in Gray’s Inn as to how much a written Advice from one of their QCs would cost. The document in question was 17pp long, but the only important bit consisted of only two paragraphs, and on only one page. A few alternatives were offered, but the bottom line was— £4,000 to £5,000. Again, maybe you would have to increase that by 50% or even 100% today, but even so, the £15,000 appealed for by Louise Raw seems high, particularly in view of the non-commercial subject-matter.

Brexit, in the 2017 and 2019 General Elections, the 2016 US Election etc. Not that I myself favour Trump or the “British” Conservative Party, or even mishandled Brexit, as such, but the “wokes” are in a Twitter (etc) echo chamber where they refuse to even listen to, or see, any views contrary to their own; indeed, they try to “deplatform” people, as do the Jew-Zionists. Louise Raw is a prime example of an “I’m not listening” “woke”. No wonder they always get things wrong.
Incidentally, Louise Raw is on Twitter as “@LouiseRawAuthor”. “Author“?Technically so, because she has had one (non-fiction) book published, a decade or so ago. Is that really enough, though, to validate a self-description as an “author“? Maybe in her world, just as it seems to be OK, in her world, or mind, to call herself “Doctor” based on a “doctorate” granted (if indeed she has one) on the basis of the same subject-matter as her sole book, a strike of match-factory girls in London in 1888.
Whether it be called Christmas or Yuletide, the essence is the same.
No more wars within the European family and, now that Sovietism has perished under its own weight, no more wars with Russia or the Russian people.

We need a proper public conversation about just how INSANE the rules in the first lockdown were to make sure it never, ever happens again. Let's start it on Twitter. I'll get the ball rolling: I was stopped by police when I sat down by myself on the grass after a run
Yes, I now no longer assume that any constable I see: a) understands any given law, b) has the intention of minimising disruption to members of the public.
Impressive that the police managed to turn a number of law and order Tories off them…
Quite right. In my several interactions with the UK police since I became more active politically online —in the past decade— I have come to realize, rather to my surprise, that the British police (often all-too-easily misled by the Jew-Zionist element) quite often have no idea, or proper idea, of the laws of this country, or of the liberties that still exist under those laws. As for knowledge of history, geopolitics, race and culture generally, forget it!
The worst cruelty was not letting people be with their loved ones as they died – simply no words for this totalitarian cruelty
…and almost all the “civil rights” types, the (often Jew) “human rights” lawyers, the usual suspects of those and other sorts, as well as those working on TV, radio, or in the (again, supposed) “free Press” etc, backed the police state measures! Apart from those (such as me) not, or only peripherally, in the public eye, almost all of the self-proclaimed or supposed defenders of rights, “democracy”, decency, “freedom” etc went the same way, and became, almost overnight, sycophants of the police state. Or were they in reality always puppets of the System?
There have been a few well-known public figures or personalities who, in the past nearly 2 years of “Covid” socio-political madness and repression, have stood up for both liberty and the proper rule of law (law, not mere laws, in a “society under law” rather than a society merely “with laws”; even North Korea and Stalin’s regime have or had laws…).
There have been some others, less erudite but perhaps more able to engage the mass audience; people such as, recently, Maajid Nawaz [
The monks who hammered a wooden stake into the mouth of the philosopher Giordano Bruno (in 1600, following long investigation, incarceration, and trial by the Inquisition), did so apparently believing that they were doing something good (because their cruel “measures” were done in order to prevent Bruno from further blaspheming and so further imperilling his soul). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giordano_Bruno; and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giordano_Bruno#Imprisonment,_trial_and_execution,_1593%E2%80%931600. (Bruno was then hung naked upside down and burned at the stake).
People often do very wicked and/or cruel things either in the belief that they are not wicked, or because the measures taken are believed to be necessary in order to support a greater good, or to protect society, or an institution of society.
The execution of Giordano Bruno was 500+ years ago, but (to give only a few examples of the syndrome), electric shock therapy is still practised widely today; abuse of psychiatry for reasons of socio-political control did not stop with the Soviet Union and the Serbsky Institute [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbsky_Center] (Google, eg “Tavistock Institute” and “Tavistock Clinic”); and torture for allegedly “good” reasons has been practised even within the past couple of decades by the USA and other supposedly advanced states, as well as by the obvious examples such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and other Arab and/or Muslim states, North Korea etc.
“Prison Planet” Watson
I do not rate very highly, from the ideological or socio-political point of view, vlogger Paul Joseph Watson (for one thing, he never says anything critical of the Jew-Zionist cabals, or Israel, and never defends those under attack by those elements for dissidence, people such as Alison Chabloz, Jez Turner, Ian Millard…etc), but credit where due…

Interesting, seems a Chris Whitty advert for boosters in the Cinema showing the SpiderMan film 🍿provoked a reaction!
The main reason people are still wearing facemasks in shops etc is because, at heart, British people are very law-abiding, at least usually and…when they think they are being watched…

Ukraine, as a fake “state” in the past few decades, is basically now, in terms of its set-up since 2014 especially, a Jewish-Zionist capture. The most important players in Ukraine, politically and economically, are Jews. The mass of Ukrainians are not of particularly high culture, and are easily fooled, ruled, and exploited, and they certainly have been…
For Britain, as part of NATO, to get into conflict with Russia about Eastern Ukraine, the eastern part of a territory inextricably linked to Russia for over 1,100 years, is absurd, and might lead to terrible consequences in the UK, should actual (strategic/continental) war result from all of this.
I would say “get Boris out!“, but most of those tweeting to that effect want Jewish-lobby puppet and false alternative Keir Starmer in Downing Street, together with Yvette Cooper, Rachel Reeves, and the rest. Nein danke!
There is no true democracy, or anything approaching it, in the UK.
They may not have had the technical resources of today but, at their best, they could really make films back then.
I think that I may have blogged en passant in the past about how I saw Bette Davis a few years before her death, when she was on the (I think) South Bank Show with Andrei Tarkovsky and maybe someone else as well; filmed at the South Bank Centre in London. That was about 4 years before her death. Sometime in the mid-1980s. In fact, despite her age, she outlived Tarkovsky, who died only a year or so later (1986), aged only 54. Tarkovsky had been only about 5 or 6 years old in 1938 when Jezebel was released.
The public were kept back (mostly not allowed into the building at all). Even inside, there was tight control. I was there just to meet someone else but I was introduced by a third party to the (British) chief of Bette Davis’s security (there was a whole expert team guarding her) and he said that I could stand there next to him as she came through with her “lady in waiting” and a couple of other people. An almost fossilized —and rather imperial— figure, aware of her status, rather like the last Queen of Naples.
It was amazing to see how various unwanted people, mainly autograph-hunters, kept trying to get to her, only to be expertly and diplomatically (though firmly) blocked by the guard team. One fellow even swung down (literally) from an external concrete stairway as a small side door was opened! He too was stopped, autograph book and pen in hand, and still tried to persuade the dinner-jacketed guard to let him through! All the while, the guard chief and I stood about 12 feet away, and Bette Davis + small entourage closer yet. Interesting to see. The chief of security remarked to me, as she passed by, something like “there goesa living legend“. A bit of a cliche, of course, but true.
I should say that Europe, including the UK, would be better if it had only a tenth of its present population, if that population consisted of ethnic Europeans with the right attitudes— traditional, yet willing to march into the future.
