Saturday quiz

Ah…this week my 5/10 was beaten by the 6/10 scored by political journalist John Rentoul. I might have scored higher but could only get the answers to questions 1, 4, 6, 7, and 8.

Wall. Squad. End.

The judge in question should be removed from the bench, having been influenced, as must have been the case, by the panicky demands of Starmer-stein on TV in relation to the street protests and connected online remarks made against the migrant-invaders.

There is no serious attempt to stop even illegal migration, while nominally or superficially “legal” migration continues at a rate about 20x greater, at least. We are talking about 500,000-1,500,000 every single year.

The major institutions of the UK are riddled with treachery.

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.

There are 15 candidates [https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8d4yvg1lzgo] but only Reform and Labour are of any importance.

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.

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.

Graham is a complete puppet for Israel. They must pay him plenty.

All the same, it is worrying that a U.S. Senator thinks that a country with a possible (soon, or potential) 6 nuclear devices could “destroy” both Israel and the USA itself by the use of them! Admittedly, his phrasing was not quite as the tweet reports, but Graham is still a danger to his own constituents.

He must be far more afraid of Russia, which is said to possess some 6,600 such weapons!

[“Trump is not interested in continuing to support Ukraine with weapons or participating in conflicts , said Margarita Simonyan, editor-in-chief of the Russia Today media group and RT. “We have every reason to believe that he (Trump – editor’s note) would really like to end the war in Ukraine in one day. And he really doesn’t care about this Ukraine. And he really doesn’t want to help with even more weapons, to spend an insane amount of money on this,” Simonyan said on the air of the program “Right to Know”.”]

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/18/keir-starmer-says-he-is-open-to-processing-asylum-seekers-offshore

Keir Starmer is looking into plans to process asylum seekers outside the UK as part of a rethink of the government’s immigration policies, even as a returns agreement with the EU appears more distant than ever.

The prime minister said on Thursday he was open to the idea of Britain processing claims offshore, after a day spent discussing illegal migration with fellow European leaders at Blenheim Palace. Those talks, as part of the European Political Community summit, included a meeting with Edi Rama, the Albanian prime minister, whose country processes asylum claims on behalf of Italy.

But he said a deal to return refused asylum seekers to the EU was low on his list of priorities, as the French president, Emmanuel Macron, warned his country was not willing to shoulder the additional burden.

But look, I’m a practical person. I’m a pragmatist. And I’ve always said we’ll look at what works and where cases can be processed closer to origin, then that is something which of course ought to be looked at.”

[The Guardian]

As I have been predicting for many months on the blog, Starmer will “solve” the “small boats” migration invasion, meaning get it off the TV news agenda, by simply “processing” the applications of the invaders long before they reach the UK, whether that be in France, in Albania, in Italy, or even in Africa.

“Processing” will mean, in this context, rubberstamping 90% or more of the applications. Probably more, looking at how about 80% of the applications of the present wave of invaders are eventually approved once they land in the UK (and the rest not deported anyway).

What about those, the small minority no doubt, who apply for asylum in those extra-territorial processing centres or offices but are refused? Is Starmer pretending that they will be content to stay in, or return to, their native countries? Of course they will not. They will simply make their way to the English Channel and then try to cross it.

I wonder “what element” is behind that agenda…

If you import populations from the more backward parts of the world, in sufficient quantity, your own society becomes backward and/or degenerate.

Why are they even here?

Please refer to the last few comments.

That made me laugh, which is something…I mean both the comment by tweeter “@TexanGhost” and Dawn Butler’s brainless tweet.

Only one thing can save Western culture and civilization, and the root-stock on which they both depend— social nationalism, and a consequent “revaluation of all values”.

Personal memory

Happened to see the above photo of the Thames just below Benson Lock, Oxfordshire. My mind at once returned to the summer of 1971, when I was there, aged 14, rowing my inflatable yellow neoprene boat downstream.

53 years ago. Over half a century. Does not seem possible, in a sense.

At least that little corner of England has not yet been trashed, or built upon.

I often worry that I may be too old to take a leading part in the national revolution by the time it happens, at least to take an active leading part; I am already 67 (68 in September). Damn.

“The Great Reset”…

Elon Musk has evidently had a very different experience of living in the USA than I ever did…

Mirabile dictu! Former-MP and Israel-puppet Largan has said something with which I can agree.

I have noted in the past on the blog the inadequacy of so many post-1945 public buildings in the UK, for example the court buildings in both London and the provinces. Some are OK, or even impressive, but more are not. Compare them to most of the American court buildings, such as the Federal court building in Trenton, New Jersey, where I was, several times, over 30 years ago:

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarkson_S._Fisher_Federal_Building_and_United_States_Courthouse Trenton, New Jersey; the sentry box is, I think, since 1992 when I was last there; presumably an example of the increase in “security” in the USA since those relatively innocent days]

Not the world’s most beautiful building, but very solid and impressive (and the interior is, in my view, even more impressive).

Ah…. just saw (for the first time), the New Jersey (i.e. State, not Federal) justice building, also in Trenton:

So ugly, one is prompted to speculate, “Britischer Architekt?” Still, quite large and impressive at least.

I see that that 1980s building is named after a former Governor of the state, who was also at one time Chief Justice of New Jersey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_J._Hughes_Justice_Complex#Dedication. I was very slightly acquainted with one of his sons, who himself became a Federal magistrate in 1991, a year or two after I was introduced to him; I met him again, en passant, a few times, in the years 1989-1991: https://www.pli.edu/faculty/hon.-john-j.-hughes-i1305491. He was all right, but not the most social person in the world, to be frank. Not sure that I would have liked to have been a defendant in his court…

Well, amazing. A second tweet of Largan that I like. Two in one day. Amazing.

If those poetic lines are original, from Largan himself, then he has a poetic sophistication, though not unflawed, at which I should not have guessed, to be frank.

Even if that were not so, the ban is obviously the right thing to do, whatever the collateral damage.

Defund Zelensky and his cabal. The war will then continue for only a few weeks in most areas.

Diary Blog, 5 March 2023, including thoughts around the recent incident at a school in West Yorkshire

Morning music

On this day a year ago

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11821157/14-year-old-autistic-boys-naive-prank-scuffed-copy-Koran.html.

Last week, a 14-year-old British boy was forced to flee his home and go into hiding, fearing for his life…

It all started when, as a forfeit for losing a video game, the boy was asked by his friends to buy a copy of the Koran and bring it to school, Kettlethorpe High in Wakefield, West Yorkshire....the holy book, once inside school, became accidentally damaged, though only ‘slightly’ and not by the boy’s hands.

Nobody, certainly not the boy, could have foreseen what would happen next. He was suspended along with three other pupils; police began investigating and recorded a ‘hate’ incident; a Labour councillor stoked tensions by falsely claiming on social media that the book was desecrated; and his mother found herself pleading for forgiveness at the local mosque after his life was threatened.

The Mail on Sunday has learned that at the height of the intimidation the family received an arson threat to their home and the boy –described as ‘absolutely petrified’ – was forced to move to a secret location. After initially contacting West Yorkshire Constabulary, his mother later urged officers not to prosecute to avoid further inflaming the situation. Instead the police said they would ‘work with the school moving forward’.

One parent, herself a teacher, said it ‘feels like a medieval witch-hunt’.

The next day the pupils were suspended and, for reasons that are still unclear, the school decided to call the police, an action met with widespread disbelief from parents.

…at the mosque on a Friday, when the boy’s mother – sitting before an all-male crowd – pleaded for forgiveness. Mr Griffiths, the school’s head, also told the audience – repeatedly – of his sorrow.

No one mentioned the death threats, however. Thornton said: ‘There is an element of awareness and education that needs to be embedded within the school and the wider community of Wakefield.’

He continued: ‘We recorded a hate incident. That means we will look to support the school at this moment in time. It is recorded on our system.

It was left, then, to the mother, sitting with her hands grasped together, to talk about the threats.

She did so almost by way of an apology. In fact what followed – filmed and put on social media – turned into an exercise in public humiliation resembling something from Maoist China.

[Mail on Sunday]

Those backward creatures do not respect the English people involved (mother, headmaster, police inspector) for pleading and grovelling—au contraire! They despise them for their weakness.

Jesus H. Christ! No wonder English people are angry at the state of this country. They let in these backward elements from places such as Pakistan, those elements then bred prolifically, embedding themselves in many places, particularly in the north of England. Now, the English, in those areas (and later, everywhere?), are completely subject to the will or diktat of the backward.

Look at how the police bend over backward to appease the mob.

A mixture of fear and both misplaced and fake “tolerance” seems to characterize the behaviour of all the English people involved. A fake tolerance which is a virtue-signal (to the Muslim Pakistanis), saying “look at us— we abase ourselves, because we really respect you and like you and your religion”, when really their pseudo-tolerant behaviour is a fig-leaf covering up fear of the Pakistanis and what violence the Pakistani mob might inflict; if you like, cowardice.

The “multicultural” society is not working. In fact, it cannot work, except where the minorities are few in overall numbers of people. Where the “communities” are large, civil war usually results: Israel/Palestine; Lebanon; Iraq; Syria; Cyprus; Bosnia; Kosovo (etc).

I wonder how long it will be before civil war engulfs “our” so-called “multicultural society”?

This latest incident is another sign that a malign force has been allowed to grow unchecked in the UK. It has to be stopped, and MI5’s pussyfooting, and result-free “investigating”, merely deals (or fails to deal) with a symptom, not with the root cause.

Militant Islamism is not the only serious enemy of our European society in the UK; there are several others. It is, however, the most powerful in terms of control of the streets.

More arrive in the UK every single day, by routes both “legal” (“family reunion”, “fiance/fiancee visas” etc) and illegal (smuggling, rubber-boats in the Channel), and by (the biggest of all invasion routes) births to those already here.

In the end, only reasonable but firm social nationalism can save the UK and the English/British people.

Exactly. Labour wanted more and stricter police-state “lockdowns” (a term formerly used only in prisons and high-security military bases).

The economic struggle of the UK now is mainly a result of the misconceived “lockdown(s)” and other supposedly anti-“Covid” policies applied in 2020 and 2021.

At the height of the pandemic, then-Health Secretary Matt Hancock wanted to announce a new Covid variant to “frighten the pants off everyone”, leaked WhatsApp messages have revealed.

Mr Hancock’s adviser said: “Rather than doing too much forward signalling, we can roll pitch with the new strain.”

“We frighten the pants of everyone with the new strain,” Mr Hancock responded.

The solution was to declare a new strain of coronavirus, the Alpha or Kent variant.

When discussing regional lockdowns, Jamie Njoku-Goodwin, Mr Hancock’s media adviser, suggested it would not be “unhelpful” for the public to think their area could be next.

Hancock and the rest should be put up against a wall.

The Daily Mail and other newspapers should do a report (maybe in a supplement, in view of the amount of material available) about the “holocaust” hoaxes and fakes. Hundreds, maybe thousands.

It should never have been this way. There should have been, more than a year ago, elimination of the Zelensky cabal by covert and/or Spetsnaz units, followed by swift and overwhelming mass parachute landings, particularly in and around Kiev itself, those landings then reinforced and consolidated by a broad advance on and approach to Kiev by massive formations of armour and motorized infantry. As I put it a year ago, “a Blitzkrieg for the sake of mercy“, thus saving the civilian population and their companion animals from being killed, wounded and/or traumatized; also, saving their homes, and general urban infrastructure, from excessive and unnecessary damage.

The Russian Army, GRU, and governmental apparat(s) have been found wanting— hugely so. Inefficient, inept, corrupt, badly-run, you name it. Not that this is new in Russian history. Look at 1914 and 1941.

Ukrainian “refugees”

Seen in the Guardian, a reader’s letter:

I had a checkup with my NHS dentist in May 2022. The next was scheduled for January 2023. This was postponed until April and, last week, I was told this appointment is cancelled. I now have to ring the practice in November 2023 to arrange an appointment for 2024. We currently have a Ukrainian refugee staying with us. She returned to Lviv for Christmas and saw her dentist while there. I am thinking of joining her on her next trip home as it is clearly easier to see a dentist in a war zone than it is here (Rotten, with no quick fixes: the state of our mouths reflects the plight of NHS dentistry, 2 March).

So a Ukrainian “refugee”, staying with someone in Bristol, and who makes pleasant trips back to Lvov? Lvov is in western Ukraine, close to the Polish border, and has been only rarely under any attack. She goes to Lvov for Christmas, and to get dental treatment etc… Why is that person even in the UK? She is evidently not, in any sense, a “refugee”.

The Guardian-reading Bristolian virtue-signaller blithely says that he himself may go to Lvov with the “refugee” “on her next trip home“. Do these people ever wake up?
