The questions this week seemed harder than usual. Political journalist John Rentoul scored only 3/10, and I did little better— 4/10 (questions 2, 5, 8, and 9).

Justice done, on both sides.

Very true, but why leave out Cameron-Levita? Think facilitation of the fall of Gaddafi in Libya (which has been a major cause of the migration-invasion of Europe, certainly from Africa), and the demonization of the sick, disabled, unemployed etc (which admittedly started under Blair and Brown but was 10x worse under Cameron-Levita).

In fact, Brown was not much better, for all his fake “great brain” grandstanding.

As for Blair, he may have thought he knew what do do with power, but most, maybe 80%, of what he did was wrongheaded: PFI contracts, the deliberate importation of non-Europeans in large numbers, the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, the explosion in prices in the residential property sector etc.

Ha ha. Very true.

I must have missed the bit where fake Labour and fake Conservative parties and their clueless ministers showed us the benefit of such “skills and experience“…

I mean, we are talking about (in the present government) such as David Lammy, Angela Rayner, Liz Kendall, Rachel “from Accounts” Reeves etc— complete deadheads; and about (in previous governments over the past decade) Liz Truss, Kwasi Kwarteng —aka Woollyhead Trussbanger, Ian Dunce Duncan Smith, and others too numerous to list. A cavalcade of cretins.

Not that tweeter Victoria Freeman is completely wrong. A Reform UK government would/will be disastrous, true, but so are or have been, and would be, all the others. Only a credible social-national government can save this country and the rest of Europe.

I have noted several times on the blog the ever-more-voluminous reservoir of non-voters and their potential power. More than 40% of eligible voters did not vote in 2024. That may or may not increase to 50%. If any movement could capture that 40%-50%, it would very likely also capture another 30%, and so 70%-80% of the national vote. Our time will then have come.

Trump gave Zelensky a warning to negotiate with Russia, a warning not only verbal but given in real-life terms, by temporarily cutting off arms and ammunition. If Zelensky ignores the warning, shipments will again be interrupted, and may never restart.

Zelensky’s unwillingness to give Russia most of what it wants means that the war will continue until Russia prevails over all eastern Ukraine (Ukraine east of the Dnieper), and that will eventually happen even if American armaments continue to be gifted to the Kiev regime.

This blog has always said that peace must be, and really can only be, on the basis below:

  1. Russia to rule Ukraine east of the Dnieper;
  2. Russia to rule Crimea;
  3. Russia to rule the littoral of the Sea of Azov, and the littoral of the Black Sea as far west as Odessa;
  4. Kiev and Odessa to be either “open cities”, i.e. neutral and ruled by their own inhabitants, or with co-dominium status, ruled jointly by Russia and a Ukrainian government based in Lvov.

Similar to freeloading and/or corrupt NWO/ZOG politicians on the American side of the Atlantic:

Were the UK to get closer to Russia, leave NATO, get rid of US air bases (inc. those falsely designated “RAF”), stop being “America’s poodle”, and drop the stupid anti-Russia sanctions, the UK could probably get oil and gas at cost from Russia, maybe even at a subsidy. All that, and a guaranteed market for British goods and services.

Britain could keep and even expand its nuclear weapons submarine fleet, but now under full British control, nothing to do with the Americans.

The ridiculous woman on the video was, apparently, the Editor of the Daily Mirror. No wonder few still read that shite anymore. The circulation, once in the millions, is now 190,000, and dropping fast: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daily_Mirror#2004%E2%80%93present.

See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alison_Phillips.

Incidentally, under her editorship (2018-2024), that comic went from having a circulation of about half a million to its present poor state. I do not “blame” her alone; her kind of System scribbling is just dead and gone, really.

Once “they” control any country, or area, or field of activity, they start to monopolize it. Fact. Historical fact.

Interesting. As a barrister in London, I used to get briefed by the PKK “back in the day” (early/mid 1990s), though there was nothing ideological in it; one brief just led to another after a couple of early and unexpected successes.

Britain’s battle-ready troops consist of maybe 10,000 personnel, it seems. The Kiev regime is losing 500-1,500 every day. So if the UK sends troops to Ukraine (which might trigger direct full-scale war with Russia if the story is true, which I doubt, what happens after a couple of weeks or so, when most of those Brit troops are dead, badly-injured, or captured?

Even in the world of the “British” Lugenpresse, which is mostly owned by the “you-know-who”s and prints rubbish most of the time, the degraded Daily Express stands out as truly ridiculous.

Well, don’t come here!

From the horse’s mouth.

A state founded on terror, and populated mainly by the sweepings of the ghettos of pre-1945 Europe. Now attracting psychotics, sub nom “settlers”, from places such as Brooklyn.

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

[“Britain is a tinderbox right now. You can literally feel it. People are a lot angrier, a lot more frustrated, a lot more disillusioned than Westminster thinks. Years of lying to –and gaslighting– the British public about our borders and mass immigration have eroded public trust and undermined the social contract. And now Keir Starmer’s farcical small boats “deal” is just going to make all this so much worse. As I explain below, this is not a serious plan for fixing our borders. It is an exchange programme for illegal migrants. It is an insult to the hardworking, law-abiding British majority. We don’t want “one in, one out” We want “none in, all out” If you break our laws, you should never be allowed to remain in the country. It really s that simple We want an end to broken borders We want an end to mass uncontrolled immigration We want an end to British families being forced to pay billions each year for an immigration crisis our elected politicians refuse to fix And we want all of that. Now.”]

…and now the Israeli Jews, apparently backed by most Zionist Jews from other parts of the world, are, literally, deliberately starving to death the Arab Palestinians of Gaza, including the children. The same Jew-Zionists who are always whining about the alleged treatment of their ancestors by Germans (and Poles, and Ukrainians, and French etc) during WW2, a conflict which ended 80 years ago.

Interesting.

…thus proving that 64% of the UK population in 2020 were unthinking, panicked, deliberately-stampeded idiots.

Immigration, on the scale seen by the UK for half a century, impacts everything, and every other issue.

Migration invasion. Migration occupation. Utterly disastrous.

Incidentally, only people whose great-grandparents were born in the UK (or in northern Europe, and to properly-European parents) should be entitled to vote in elections here.

The Overton Window is moving at last…

Anything from any Indians, Pakistanis, or other non-whites on this issue can be disregarded as biased and/or with an agenda.

In effect, though, the UKIP of 2014 is still around, having passed through two further incarnations— Brexit Party and now Reform UK.

As to the LibDems, their facade is still standing, thanks to the LibDems being the default non-Lab/non-Con alternative-choice or dustbin party, but as a party putting forward real ideas, they are almost a nullity.

In the end, only a real social-national party can deal with the problem. Reform, for me, is just an underwhelming way-station.

That polling may be accurate but, if it is, leaves out the important voting effects. Hardly anyone of or above State Pension age supports the “confiscation” of universal Winter Fuel Payment; very few aged 55+ support the “confiscation”. Most of those supporting Starmer-stein and Rachel Reeves in this will be under 40, perhaps even under 30.

The WFP “confiscation” will have electoral repercussions right through the present Parliament and on to the next general election. One of several factors which have already sunk fake Labour.

Were I to publish on the blog what I think should be done with evil “immigrants welcome” (“invaders welcome”) expenses cheat Yvette Cooper, I should probably have to endure the nuisance and boredom of the UK’s poundshop Stasi police at my door (yet again)…

[Yvette Cooper welcoming the invaders trashing our country. In non-legalistic lay terms, meaning in simple language, this is treason]

Like most of Starmer-stein’s Cabinet, Yvette Cooper is a member of Labour Friends of Israel.

Moscow must be (?) becoming more convenient than I remember…

Last time I was there was 18 years ago, in 2007.

As frequently noted on the blog, though, immigration on such a huge scale impacts all other issues— housing, NHS, crime, tax, economy, environment, water supply, State pensions and other benefits etc.

The next general election may not be until 2029, so much ground to cover before then, but those numbers would result in a House of Commons with 310 Reform MPs (on the cusp of a working majority), 169 Lab, 72 LibDem, 36 SNP, 33 Cons (etc).

The Conservative Party, as in another poll yesterday, relegated to a pretty poor 5th place in the Commons. Among the 94 Con MPs likely to be ejected would be Mel Stride, James Cleverly, Suella Braverman, Jeremy Hunt, David Davis, Jesse Norman, Robert Jenrick, Rishi Sunak and, last but not least, Kemi Badenoch.

That would pretty much finish the Con Party.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

The opinion polls now commonly have Reform not only as top party preference, but also top by some distance from Labour and the rest.

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

I was last there in 1974, I think, aged maybe 17. Having dropped out of school [https://rbcs.org.uk/], I worked for a while as temp dogsbody for an agency that sent me to various places short of workers. The one in Bracknell was at the Waitrose warehouse (next to Waitrose HQ). I was there for a couple of weeks. I used to go there daily from Caversham Heights (north-west of Reading) on my 75 cc Italian scooter (absolute top speed 60 mph, normal top speed 50).

I remember the brief experience mainly because, one fine day, two Thames Valley Police detectives from Reading wanted to interview me in the office. They did so, and fingerprinted me. Apparently, the other agency workers, who all arrived and departed by minibus, had already been interviewed. I was told that quite a lot of Waitrose canned products had gone missing.

Well, it turned out that all the agency workers except me had been “having it away” with Waitrose’s stuff. I was cleared almost immediately, I think mainly by the absence of fingerprint evidence against me, but all the others were, I was told, charged with theft. I had had no idea that they were “having it away” with tins of salmon or whatever. Naive me.

Not that I was necessarily more honest than the others (who were all much older than me, in their thirties or forties); I just had no use for whatever Waitrose products they had apparently been stealing.

Bracknell was very different then, I think, and smaller; the same is true of my old school at Sonning, looking now at its website. Pretty much only the original old house (Holme Park house) is the same; a whole large complex is now around it. New facilities, new buildings, even a new road system:

Hard-hitting critique of Starmer-stein. In my view, though, not hard-hitting enough.

Starmer-stein is of course, and in ordinary language, a traitor.

Comforting, in a way, that only 20% of the population is irredeemably stupid (or malicious?).

The government of “Ukraine” (the Kiev-regime fake state) is a brutal and corrupt dictatorship, ruled mainly by Jew-Zionists.

Tony Martin (1944-2025)

I missed the reports of the recent death of farmer Tony Martin, imprisoned in 1999 for having shot some “travellers” (Irish tinkers) who had targeted his rundown farmhouse by night.

Incidentally, the Wikipedia entry about those events and the aftermath omits the “traveller” aspect entirely: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Martin_(farmer); so does the local news outlet Nottingham Post (the “traveller” criminals in the case having come from the Nottingham area): see https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/nottinghamshire-burglar-shot-farmer-tony-9930047.

Martin was eventually released after having spent 3 years in prison, his initial conviction for murder having been downgraded on appeal to manslaughter. There had been a huge public outcry supporting Martin. I myself recall having posted a supportive postcard to him from Turkey when he was still sitting in prison. 2001. I wonder whether he ever received it.

I was unaware in 1999 and 2001 that Martin had (probably in the 1970s) supported the National Front [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK)], and was related by marriage to Andrew Fountaine [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Fountaine, an interesting if slightly alarming character whom I once saw, and heard speak (at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in 1975, when I was aged 18-19).

After his release, Martin supported, so says Wikipedia, both UKIP and the group Traditional Britain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Independence_Party; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_Britain_Group.

Martin should never have been prosecuted or even questioned (except pro-forma).

Jack Lopresti, former Italian ice-cream salesman and sometime TA (part-time) private soldier [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] and MP (2010-2024) is in fact notfighting” in Ukraine. He is sitting at a desk in Kiev.

Both Lopresti and his ex-wife, Andrea Jenkyns, lost their Commons seats in 2024. They were both members of Conservative Friends of Israel.

Andrea Jenkyns has abandoned the Conservative Party for Reform UK. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Jenkyns.

Lopresti seems rather unintelligent, and obviously has little idea of geopolitics, history, or anything else much. I expect he is being paid for his present role, and paid more than the peanuts pay, paid in local rubbish-money, that the Ukrainian soldiers get (when paid at all).

Incidentally, nearly 6 years ago, I penned an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns:

There are two (or three) main arguments against mass non-European immigration into the UK. One is both racial and cultural, meaning also societal, the other is economic. For me, the economic argument is not the primary one, but it is (obviously) hugely significant. The swamping of this country by non-whites is making us poorer and, until stopped and reversed, will continue to make us poorer as a country, as a population and, particularly as British individuals.

Carpetbagger Kemi should scuttle back either to the USA or to Nigeria, where she came from.

You still see stupid British scribblers, TV talking heads, MPs etc, spouting about how “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) is fighting for European culture, democracy, civil rights etc. In reality, the shambolic and corrupt Kiev regime is a brutal dictatorship.

The Jew Zelensky rules as the figurehead of a cabal of dictators. Elections should have been held a year or two ago and now never will be. Trade unions are banned. Dissidents are arrested already; a few have even been shot or otherwise “eliminated”. Recruitment to the armed forces is now largely by press-gang— people simply seized off the streets by militia goons.

At a protest against Trump’s executive orders targeting child mutilation procedures on minors, Actress Cynthia Nixon reveals that: -Her daughter is transgender -Her niece is transgender -Her best friend’s child is transgender -Her daughter’s best friend is transgender -Her life is filled with transgender people, “young and old, but especially young.” President Trump is saving American children from one of the most destructive social contagions in human history.

Does anything in this country work properly any more?

Who, really, would vote for a Nigerian woman who, though born in London, was brought up entirely in Nigeria and the USA, and only came to this country aged 16? That, alone…

Apart from underwhelming pay and conditions, at least for those enlisting in the ranks, who would want to join armed forces of a country that pretends to be squaring up to Russia and China (both of which have armed forces 20 or 30 times the size of the UK’s) yet cannot even defend its own shores against migrant-invaders?

What are recruits supposed to be defending? A multikulti, mixed-race population? The wealthy and selfish 1%, most of whom are not even British in any real way? The Jewish lobby? The completely rotten mainstream media, legal professions, and treacherous “political class”? What, then? The self-interested and pathetic “Royal Family”, now consisting of Charles, Camilla, the tame thick princeling William (now already 42 y o), the ridiculous entitled nobody, Harry, and of course Meghan Mulatta?

Forget it.

If Reform succeeds, but is then found wanting, the British people will finally turn to the only possible alternative except full Communism— social nationalism.

I imagine that the lesson learned by the Palestinians of Gaza (etc) is that, to match the overwhelming military power of the Israelis, the only way is to take and keep Jewish hostages. Not, of course, the lesson the Israelis wanted to teach…

Say what you want about those people, they are incredibly resilient.

Major political mistakes, banal corruption and simply poor analysis of the situation – ignorance of history and misunderstanding of the nature of ‘Ukrainism’ – played their role ,” Medvedev said.

– “Biden did the worst at one point, essentially starting a war between the collective West and Russia, which almost turned into a nuclear conflict with NATO.”

” Recently, he clearly did not fully understand what was happening. Yes, we must admit, such a war is economically beneficial for the United States. But the political costs and the real danger of a fatal conflict are much greater. But the old man was not ready for this. This is a case when the head of the world’s largest power completely failed to cope with the situation . As a result, the Democrats unfortunately lost the elections. If Biden’s problem is his inadequacy, then the fault of his administration is that it deliberately left a very difficult crisis legacy on the Russian track for its successors. The harmful side effects of Biden’s decisions will continue to manifest themselves for a very long time , “Medvedev wrote on Telegram.

– “That is why it will take decades for Russian-American relations to fully normalize. Although, in my opinion, in the current reality this is impossible in principle. And frankly, it is not clear whether it is necessary at all,” Medvedev concluded.”

Look at what she did before becoming an MP. Another “diversity hire”.

Look also at the opinion polls! You can fool the British people much of the time (as the last 14+ years has proven), but there comes a point when even the British awaken from their sport and “celebrity” obsessions, and say “no, no, no”.

“Israel” is not just that small country in the Middle East; it is also a global web consisting of the worldwide Jewish-Zionist lobby, and also those in public life whom that lobby has bought or otherwise suborned. Look at the UK. Both remaining contenders for the Conservative Party leadership are Israel-lobby puppets, as is the present “Labour” Prime Minister, “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer, and also his close colleagues (such as Rachel Reeves and Yvette Cooper).

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13979249/city-migration-breaking-point-Coventry-arrivals-overseas.html

A city at migration breaking point: An unvarnished dispatch from Coventry – which saw over 22,000 arrivals from overseas in a single year – exposes how housing, schools and GPs are being placed under unbearable strain.

Another development has already started in Bennetts Road in the suburbs of Coventry. ‘There were green fields as far as the eye could see,’ said Gillian Collinge, a former Home Office official.

Today the once idyllic vista is scarred by a brutal two-metre-high security fence just feet from the back gardens of their homes, which have names such as Springfield Cottage, Lilac House and Harefield.

Beyond the metal perimeter are diggers, mud, noise and men in high-viz jackets.

‘It’s absolutely heartbreaking,’ added Gillian, who lives next to the chaos with husband Peter, also 66, a retired software engineer.

The building site – until just over a year ago a green-belt haven for wildlife – is now the location for 3,200 new houses. More than 500 have already sprung up.

Read the full report. Even those badly affected by migration-invasion are often so sadly brainwashed that they imagine that there is some kind of moral imperative requiring the UK to accept settlement by backward people from all over the world.

Both main System parties are guilty not only of allowing migration-invasion, but of promoting it: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

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

The Camp of the Saints (French: Le Camp des Saints) is a 1973 French dystopian fiction novel by author and explorer Jean Raspail.[1][2][3] A speculative fictional account, it depicts the destruction of Western civilization through Third World mass immigration to France and the Western world. Almost forty years after its initial publication, the novel returned to the bestseller list in 2011.[4]

So it begins…

All very reasonable, at first blush. Helps citizens, saves public money etc. However, this may well be one of the first steps to microchips implanted under the skin. Anyone refusing to have one will not be punished directly, at least not at first, but will simply be cut off from accessing most health services. Later, perhaps cut off from receiving State benefits, even pensions. Then, once most people are on the system, your beliefs and political activities will be added to the mix. The “racist“, “antisemitic” etc will be cut off from services and State financial help, and be even more marginalized for their views etc. After that, taken into “protective custody”…

Most schools, most of the time, are just useless. For the mass, a school is a place where children are “warehoused” during the day while the parents are (both?) at work making money (mostly for someone else).

Contrary to what many believe, you do not have to send your children to school in the UK, though there are conditions: https://www.gov.uk/home-education.

I should love something seriously bad to happen to “Boris” Johnson.

No wonder that the Kiev regime has to use press-gangs to “recruit” new cannon-fodder. No-one wants to volunteer, or even be drafted.

A good example, the above Twitter/X thread, of the ever-more-apparent split in the UK between those who see the realities and those who choose not to see them. The fact is that Winter Fuel Payment is or was a great boon to pensioners, and now huge numbers of them are going to be deprived of it; both those who are entitled to apply for Pension Credit but have not done so and those who are above (often not far above) the Pension Credit capital or income cut-off points, and will therefore not now be given WFP.

The press-gangs of the Kiev regime

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13980181/desperate-ukrainian-men-hiding-houses-army-russia.html

Desperate Ukrainian men have resorted to hiding in their houses for up to eight months just to avoid fighting Russia.

Stories include missing a daughter’s birth, avoiding public transport, and not attending weddings – all to get out of being conscripted into the Ukrainian military.

This comes as Ukraine is on the look-out for more fighters as it has struggled to replenish its army while thousands of soldiers from North Korea join Russia.

Roman, 33, an entrepreneur in Lviv, said he pays $1,000 a month to receive an exemption. 

He explained: ‘Eighty per cent of my friends who went to fight have been killed and I don’t want to join them. By now we all know what happens.

‘I am lucky I have money and my own business so don’t need to be on public transport or in places where the mobilisation gangs operate. I don’t go to restaurants or weddings.’

Desertions from the Ukraine army are at an all-time high since the recent escalation of conflict began in 2022.

This comes as Ukraine passed a controversial new law in May that requires every man of draft age — 25 to 60 — to register so they can be called up.

Few if any want to be caught and forced onto the front-lines to fight for the shambolic and corrupt dictatorship of the Jew Zelensky. Who can blame them? 6 weeks of rudimentary training, and then transported (presumably under guard) to the front.

Labour MP Rosie Duffield has resigned the Labour whip with immediate effect.

Her resignation pulls no punches:

“As Prime Minister, your managerial and technocratic approach, and lack of basic politics and political instincts, have come crashing down on us as a party after we worked so hard, promised so much, and waited a long fourteen years to be mandated by the British public to return to power

Since the change of government in July, the revelations of hypocrisy have been staggering and increasingly outrageous.

I cannot put into words how angry I and my colleagues are at your total lack of understanding about how you have made us all appear.

How dare you take our longed-for victory, the electorate’s sacred and precious trust, and throw it back in their individual faces and the faces of dedicated and hardworking Labour MPs?!

The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale. I am so ashamed of what you and your inner circle have done to tarnish and humiliate our once proud party.”

I might not agree on everything with Rosie Duffield (specifically, her support for Israel and the Jewish lobby), but she certainly has principle. These days, in the political milieu, that is as rare and as valuable as rubies.

Starmer shows no embarrassment because he is not really a politician, let alone a statesman, but a technician, put into power by the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby to do a job: firstly to get rid of Corbyn and any non-Zionists in Labour, secondly to impose the ZOG/NWO regime, meaning pro-Israel and pro-“Ukraine” (the Zelensky Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) internationally, and a kind of “great reset” domestically; thirdly, to destroy what little free speech and freedom of expression still exists in the UK, fourthly, to impose a “woke” dictatorship intent on shipping into the UK as many non-whites as possible.

Interesting. Something of which I was previously unaware. I suppose it might just be co-incidence, but there so often do seem to be so many “co-incidences”…

I think that it goes deeper than that.

That kind of Jewish lobby (which after 1948 became also an Israel/State of Israel lobby) did exist prior to WW2. Churchill was its main agent; but it did not really or fully embed itself until after 1989, in the 1990s. Blair was, in this as in so many other negative things, the one who opened up the portal of darkness.

Ha. Seems that her principles do not extend as far as giving up, or risking having to give up, the pay and perks of an MP. She understands all too well that, in a rigged system like this, the voting masses only vote for a label, at least 99% of the time. Which makes me wonder why she has left Labour. Maybe she will jump to Reform UK. Seems unlikely, though, especially in view of her solid electoral support at GE 2024— 41.4%, with Cons second on 23%.

I was just looking at Rosie Duffield’s bio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_Duffield. Not very impressive; not at all. The main thing that stands out is her pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby stance. I have noticed that the prolific and fanatical Jewish tweeters on Twitter/X always support her— a very bad sign.

Rosie Duffield cannot return to a well-paid outside profession or career, because she never had one. She dropped out of school at 16, and her main activity apart from being a mother was as a teaching assistant for a number of years. She was 46 when she became an MP in 2017.

Maybe Rosie Duffield, in the end, is just quite genuinely horrified by the evident unfitness of Starmer-Labour, and has simply decided to sit it out as an MP for the next 4+ years and then either not stand for re-election or maybe stand for Reform UK or as Independent. She might yet have a chance if she goes to Reform and if Reform is by then the main challenging party.

She is older than she looks and (born 1971) is now 53. By 2029, she will be 58. Perhaps she has little interest in continuing beyond that point.

As for Starmer, I said on the blog, about a week or so after GE 2024, that he had already failed in government.

Friedrich Merz, the leader of Germany’s main opposition party, the CDU, said that “Ukraine can never defeat Russia, and that was never the goal.” In an interview with Bild, he said that the allies are helping Ukraine “not to lose the war.”

Asked whether Ukraine should win the war, he replied: ” Ukraine will never be able to defeat Russia, that was never the goal. But for me victory means: it must restore sovereignty over its territory. And Russia must stop attacking this country. We must do everything to make Russia consider the continuation of the war hopeless. But we are quite far from that.”

That horrible creature of Evil, Jacinda Ardern, has been a major player in the attempt to create a world anti-white, anti-free speech dictatorship. New Zealand may be far away from almost everywhere but until about 30 years ago was an almost entirely English/Scottish new-ish society. That, of course, had to be trashed… How did they do it? Same as everywhere else of importance— imported non-white populations, and destroyed free speech.

People talk a lot of nonsense about how the white settlers took over the existing Maori state in the 19thC. There is of course a kernel of truth in that, but the main Maori invasion and/or settlement was in the 14thC AD, only c.400 years before the white European settlement. In any case, after the Europeans and Maori came to agreement, New Zealand was a progressive and peaceful society until the late 20thC.

Jacinda Ardern worked at a fairly high level for the UK Labour Party under Blair-Brown for 1-2 years before relocating back to New Zealand.

15 years as MP, of which about 6 were also years as Prime Minister (2017-2023).

One puzzling aspect of Jacinda Ardern’s political regime is that she came to power as Prime Minister with a rather small amount of capital, yet is now said to be worth tens of millions of NZ dollars. How?

Anyone who has lived in the USA knows to what extent the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby controls the major parts of the news media (TV stations, radio stations, the newspapers, magazines etc). I do not hear John Kerry talking about that, though…

While admittedly not germane to the tweet above, I do find it puzzling that the parents of Ed and David Miliband were supposedly “poor refugees” “fleeing” “Nazi-ism”, so how did they obviously have so much money?

Miliband was born in the Fitzrovia district of Central London to Polish Jewish immigrants Marion Kozak and Ralph Miliband, a Marxist intellectual and native of Brussels who fled Belgium during World War II. He graduated from Corpus Christi College, Oxford and later from the London School of Economics.”

[Wikipedia]

Belgian-born Marxist sociologist Ralph Miliband and Polish-born Marion Kozak [were] both from Polish Jewish families.[1][7][8] The latter was a teacher before she became a homemaker. He was given the middle name of “Wright” after the American sociologist C. Wright Mills, a friend of his father.[9] He has said “I am the child of Jewish immigrants and that is a very important part of my identity.”[7]

Both his Polish Jewish paternal grandparents lived in the Jewish quarter of Warsaw. His paternal grandfather, Samuel, a trained leather worker, served in the Red Army in the Polish–Soviet War of 1919–1921 before moving to Belgium.[10][11] His paternal grandmother, Renia (later known as Renée), also moved to Belgium, where she first met Sam, and the couple married in 1923.[12]

The German invasion of Belgium in May 1940 split the Miliband family in half: Ralph and father Samuel fled to England,[13] while Ralph’s mother Renée and baby sister Nan stayed behind for the duration of the war. They were not reunited until 1950.”

[Wikipedia]

Miliband’s parents grew up in the impoverished Jewish quarter of Warsaw, Poland. His father Samuel Miliband (1895–1966) was a member of the socialist Jewish Labour Bund in Warsaw.[11]

[Wikipedia]

Ralph married Polish-born Marion Kozak in September 1961.[25] She was the daughter of a steel manufacturer, David Kozak, with a Polish Jewish heritage, and also one of his former students at the LSE. They made a home in Primrose Hill, and later in Bolton Gardens, South Kensington, and had two sons, David in 1965 and Edward in 1969.

So they flee penniless, supposedly, from mainland Europe, and not only get jobs in London; they have a house or apartment (I think house), firstly in the affluent area of Primrose Hill, and then in the extremely affluent/wealthy area of The Boltons, in South Kensington.

Even in the 1950s and 1960s, those were very expensive areas.

Moreover, their two children both go to university, and not just any university but Oxford (Corpus Christi).

Ed Miliband had so much money that, when he became Labour Party leader, Jeremy Paxman actually taxed him in interview with the question as to whether he had ever had trouble paying a bill. He floundered.

I suppose that the riches came from the maternal side: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Kozak#Early_life_and_education

Puzzling all the same. We always hear how the “Nazis” confiscated all Jewish property. Does that mean that those Jews had riches stashed in other countries? If so, at least some “Nazi” propaganda would seem to be based on truth…

She does not sound at all intelligent (whoever she is).

Are there only about 20 people at that conference?

Make that 120…

If you take away the msm scribblers and photographers, maybe 20 Young (not to say “callow”) Conservatives…

Labour are rubbish (and malicious), the equally-fake Conservative Party is equally-rubbish (the only reason Labour are in government is because almost all voters wanted the Cons out rather than Lab in).

People are looking for a new way forward. At present, only Reform UK, more or less “controlled opposition”, is looking likely to be able to mount an electoral challenge of any significance any time soon, but what Britain really needs is social nationalism.

Watched something called Abandoned Railways from Above. https://www.channel4.com/programmes/abandoned-railways-from-above.

The episode I saw was about the Varsity Line, of which I knew a little already. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varsity_Line.

I like that kind of aerial travelogue, and this one was done reasonably well, except that the (Northern English) voiceover insisted on using the term “Nazi” when she meant “German“, as in potential “Nazi invasion” of the UK, or “Nazi bombs” falling on this or that city. I was glad, though, to see/hear the amusingly nerdy young custodian (?) or historian at Bletchley Park refer, correctly, to the encrypted matter and codes being studied as “German“, rather than “Nazi“.

In the time of the Reich, the untermensch would have been guillotined.

“Populism” is not enough. It may be a way-station en route to social nationalism, though. “Overton window” etc…

Rachel Reeves has no “plan”, just a tick-box idea of “balancing the books”. cf. David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne.

Look at what she herself has decided to do, along with her boss, fellow Labour Friends of Israel member Starmer.

Infrastructure investment slashed, which is the worst-possible choice (though some projects are useless, notably HS2). More money for the subsistence of unwanted migrant-invaders. Pensioners to lose a lifeline. No new hospitals. Yet pay rises of 22.3% (over 2 years) for junior hospital doctors most of whom are useless, and most if not all of whom will be on far higher levels of income within a few years of seniority.

That last reminded me of a major league baseball players’ strike when I lived in the USA over 30 years ago. The strike was bitter and crowned with success eventually. The demand was that all major league baseball players should get $100,000 a year minimum (I suppose you could at least double the value today). Not unreasonable, arguably, though it was several times the average pay of Americans as a whole. The joke was that only 1% of all major league baseball players at that time received pay of less than $100,000 anyway. Most were in the several hundreds of thousands a year, with a substantial minority getting over a million a year.

The “trans” nonsense has become utterly ridiculous. Having said that, women should not be boxing anyway.

Less than a month since GE 2024, and Starmer-Labour is already the “elected” dictatorship I predicted. I say “elected“, of course, because only 4 out of every 12 voters who voted, voted Labour (only 4 out of 20 of all eligible voters— 8 out of 20 did not vote at all).

We are not ruled by “Labour” or “Conservative” labels, but by NWO/ZOG puppets. There is no substantial difference between the “two main parties”.

…and there are “alternative” NWO/ZOG puppets, less important ones, too: “Tommy Robinson”, Reform UK, Farage, Tice etc.

What has been absent from comment is the sheer malice of the recent announcement. I see Rachel Reeves as an extremely malicious person, and she will be well aware of the fact that few people aged 65+ vote Labour.

“Zelensky: We will discuss the issue of Ukraine’s borders with the respective countries.

PROMISED TO DEVELOP A “PEACE ESTABLISHMENT PLAN” BY THE END OF NOVEMBER

Kyiv-based political scientist Andrei ZOLOTARYOV believes that Zelensky is “preparing to sell the truce to the Ukrainians as a victory.”

Washington Post: Armed forces of Ukraine exhausted, a critical situation is emerging for the Ukrainian army on the front with elements of “serious chaos”.”

Surely, if the Kiev-regime forces are exhausted, this is the moment for a general advance of Russian armour and infantry across eastern Ukraine, not for a truce, from the Russian point of view?

The US allowed the use of nuclear weapons because of Ukraine The United States may use nuclear weapons because of the desperate situation in Ukraine, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern said in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue works. “The situation in Ukraine now is that the Russians have virtually defeated Ukraine, and so the United States has a choice between a humiliating defeat and perhaps dropping one of these low-yield nuclear weapons,” he said.

If the USA uses nuclear weapons on Russian forces, it can kiss goodbye to the top 50 American cities, including Washington DC, New York, LA, Philadelphia, Houston, Denver, Chicago, San Francisco, San Diego, and Boston.

Don’t instigate nuclear war. It could put humanity back thousands of years.
