Blast from the past

I notice that a blog post from 2016, one of the earliest on this blog, has had a hit, the first for years:

Reports and Lies

Tweets seen

Perhaps if the black “yoots” (aka petty black gangsters) were to stop shooting and stabbing each other? Maybe that would help? Just a thought…

The police are sometimes called “woodentops”, sometimes for good reason.

The main good thing about that officer, as far as I know, is that the malicious Jewish lobby dislike him (because of the much-reported incident involving liar/perjurer Gideon Falter of the fanatical Israel-lobby group “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, or “CAA”): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Rowley_(police_officer)#Commissioner_of_the_Metropolitan_Police

Overall, though, yet another careerist and idiotic quasi-traitor, it seems.

More Israeli war crimes. Every day, more atrocities. Speak out about what the Israeli Jews are doing and also about the link between Israel and the Jewish communities in the USA, UK, France etc. The latter act in concert with the former.

All very interesting.

[“Italian PM Giorgia Meloni hosted Volodymyr Zelensky at the Rome conference dinner – to remind Ukraine of its crushing debt to Europe, L’AntiDiplomatico reports. The dinner, hosted by “the duplicitous Meloni,” was formally meant to reaffirm economic support. In reality, it was a partial reckoning: The debt must be paid – they just need the right mechanism. According to the publication, the conference served as an opportunity to determine who would take charge of reconstruction – effectively seizing Ukraine’s wealth.”]

Irrelevant, because Ukraine east of the Dnieper, which is where almost all of the war damage is located, will be Russian territory before very long.

…and that actually happened, unlike the “German SS officer sniper” in the “faction” film, Schindler’s List…

Incidentally, I think that many naive people think that Schindler’s List, adapted from the novel, Schindler’s Ark, is “history”, a factual account of events, whereas it is actually “faction”, i.e. mixed fact and fiction. You might compare it to the book and film, Day of the Jackal. In the latter, most of the main characters existed, as did most of the surrounding factual basis— the Algerian conflict, the OAS, General de Gaulle, the rebel leaders etc. The story, however, was a skilful blend of real events and made-up events and people.

As a matter of fact, the author of Schindler’s Ark (at time of writing of this blog still alive at the age of 89), was only a small boy in the early 1940s, and is Australian. His book is a novel, not “history” as such.

Rachael Maskell. Think I have not heard of her previously. Looks and sounds actually insane, as Dan Hodges says (and rarely do I agree with him!). She must be mentally-ill. Alternatively, she looks as if she might be affected by some drug or other. Her demeanour is very odd.

This is what Wikipedia says about Rachael Maskell: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachael_Maskell.

On the face of it, not Jewish, and identifies as “evangelical Christian” (like many pro-Israel non-Jews), though I note that her family seems to have been tied-up with some Jewish individuals.

53 years old, apparently unmarried, and has lived entirely, it seems, in areas not much or at all blighted by mass immigration— Highcliffe in Dorset, Winchester, Norwich, and the London Borough of Barnet (a heavily-Jewish area).

Very pro-Jew and (?) pro-Israel: https://hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2019-06-13/debates/EAE3C409-8761-4044-90CC-B1A26085D755/JewishCommunityContributionToTheUK

MP for York Central since 2015: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_Central_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

56.6% of the vote in 2024, so pretty firmly ensconced, it seems. Let’s see if Reform can get rid of her in 2028 or 2029.

Rachael Maskell MP— plainly treacherous. An enemy of all British people.

Incidentally, in that same 2019 House of Commons debate, part-Jew Ruth Smeeth (now in the House of Lords as “Baroness Anderson”), a proven agent of both Israel and the U.S. Embassy in London, and involved heavily with the malicious and mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” group, said the following:

“As my hon. Friend is touching on the battle of Cable Street, I feel that I should put on the record my pride that my grandmother spent the 48 hours in the run-up to the battle of Cable Street—she lived in the east end of London—putting razor blades into tomatoes to throw at Nazis. I take a great deal of pleasure in being able to contribute to such an important debate, because the Jewish contribution to British life has had many different forms.” [https://hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2019-06-13/debates/EAE3C409-8761-4044-90CC-B1A26085D755/JewishCommunityContributionToTheUK].

Leaving aside the fact that members of Mosley’s British Union of Fascists [BUF] were not National Socialists (I wish they had been, and wish they had fought for European race and culture instead of, as many did, fighting 1939-45 in British uniform against German forces, often in North Africa and then Italy).

Ruth Smeeth is pro-Israel, pro-ZOG, pro Jewish political street violence (members of her own family were also hard-core criminals and gangsters), and here we see her true nature exposed from her own mouth.

Ruth Smeeth has admitted in that extract that she thinks that street terror by criminal Jews is a “contribution to British life”.

With a grandmother of that sort, well…what can one say?…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Smeeth. Treacherous, an apologist for criminal activity and political street violence, and an agent for at least two foreign states. Now sits in the degraded “House of Lords”, and rules over the people she spied upon.

Ecce the “anti-fascist” type…

Westminster is an evil swamp now. Drain the swamp, or wash it away.

Another “blast from the past”

Another old blog post (from 2017) had a hit or two today. I think that the ideas in it still stand up pretty well:

Aspects of the New Society

Good grief! What’s happening?! I agree with Dan Hodges again. Twice in a single day. Unglaublich...

I would, had I the political power, “stop the boats”.

How? By shooting down all cross-Channel invaders, and by rooting-out those facilitating the invasion (both on the European mainland and in the UK itself).

I should also “stop the boats” by degrading and punishing the Navy and Border Force (“Farce”) if they were to prove unable or unwilling to do their duty, then by replacing those orgs with another marine force, and/or by “privateers”, i.e. licensed “stop the boats” motor vessels crewed by bounty-hunters.

Further, I would task special forces (or, again, private and specially-licensed bounty-hunters, if necessary, i.e. if the SAS, SBS etc refuse to do their duty), those “privateers” or “bounty-hunters” to be charged with eliminating the gangsters in the EU (France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany etc) who are facilitating much of the invasion. Also, the fake “charity” “grifters” and other pro-invasion traitors.

Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes.

Rachel Reeves is very quiet. Must be having a quiet weekend cry at her grace-and-favour bolthole, Dorneywood, despite her not even having been attacked at Manchester Airport.

About time the UK had people, whether on the police front-line or at the Treasury, capable of doing a proper job. At 10 Downing Street, too.

[“Jo White – Labour MP for Bassetlaw (Nottinghamshire). Jo’s husband John Mann (Baron Mann) held the Bassetlaw seat from 2003 to 2019. During that time, Jo was her husband’s office manager. Jo’s journey to becoming an MP herself in 2024 was assisted by donations from the following: £5,000 from Labour mega donor Stuart Rodin. Mr. Rodin has given approximately £570,000 to Starmer’s Labour Party. He is chairman of the Israeli venture capital firm Hetz Ventures. Hetz employs prominent ex-members of The Mossad and IDF. £8,350 from pro-Israel lobbyist Trevor Chinn. £18,000 from Palace Yard Communications. Jo has received freebies and hospitality from the Football Association and funded international trips. With her husband comfortably ensconced in the Lords, her £93,904 salary, expenses and her generous donations, Jo is doing very well for herself financially as an MP. On 9th July, Jo voted for the Universal Credit and PIP Bill that will result in further hardship for sick and disabled people. Jo also voted to stop the #WinterFuelPayment for pensioners. @UKLabour @jowhite__#WelfareReformBill“]

Jo White MP…yet another Jewish lobby/Israel lobby puppet flying a fake “Labour” flag:

“White was born in 1964 in Stamford, Lincolnshire.[1] She has an identical twin, Deb Davies, who was elected as a Labour councillor in Newport, Wales in 2012.[2] In 2022, she stated she had recently discovered their partly Jewish ancestry.[3]” [Wikipedia] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_White.

Every. Single. Time. (almost).

Jo White and her husband John Mann (another Israel puppet) have been freeloading off the British taxpayer for at least 24 years, one way or another, and still are.

Animal magic

I noticed, when I spent about 3 months in Turkey in 2001 (my third visit) how kind most Turks are to cats.

More Israeli/Jewish harassment

OK, but where is your condemnation of Jew-Zionist anti-free speech intimidation campaign and “lawfare” (abuse of the legal system) in this country, Goodwin? That is the main repression of free speech in the UK (as you know but refuse to say).

Who or what group encouraged the invasion of Sweden?

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

From the horse’s mouth.

Every. Single. Time.

Ironic, though, that Sweden, which now allows in every piece of trash from the backward parts of the world, is the only country to which I have ever been refused admission; at the port of Malmo, in 1982. The Swedes said that I was not carrying enough money to go around the Gulf of Bothnia to Finland. I was put back on the ferry to Travemunde, a small port on the then border between East and West Germany, the same day I arrived.

I would say “so another traitor speaks“, but of course Sajid Javid is not exactly a traitor, because he is not in any real sense British anyway; an apostate Pakistani Muslim who worships Israel and the Jews, and follows the crazed evil “teachings” of “Ayn Rand” (Alysa Rosenbaum), a mentally-disturbed Jewish woman sometimes called “the philosopher of selfishness”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayn_Rand.

Bin both “Ayn Rand” and Sajid Javid.

Incidentally, I see that Penny Mordaunt, chucked out by the voters, and who did not get a consolation peerage, is now trying to stay in the career loop via the old “antisemitism” racket, like mentally-unwell sex pest John Woodcock (now “Lord Walney”) and others.

Woodcock/Walney was sacked from his government “role” (job) recently, either because he is useless or because he is a pathetic sex pest and/or loonie: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2pddvwgg8o.

…says the fanatical and very unpleasant Jew-Zionist who conspired with the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” and “UK Lawyers for Israel” (“CAA” and “UKLFI”) for years to get me both disbarred and prosecuted. Typical Jew-Zionist hypocrite.

For those unaware of the existence of this blot on the Bar of England and Wales, Myerson was briefly a Recorder (part-time judge) who was sacked about a year ago (though allowed to call it “resignation”) after he repeatedly abused people on social media. Also, his sworn testimony in the fairly recent libel case of Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased), and Cantor was not believed by the trial judge (who said so impliedly, if not expressly), which must say something about Myerson.

Exclusive: pro-Israel judge ‘no longer holds office’ after sanction for social media abuse

Good news but, by 2029, Yvette Cooper will be 60 anyway. Losing her Commons seat will, in my view, not be anything like the punishment that should be visited upon this would-be dictator, traitor, and expenses fraudster. Still, there it is, I suppose.

On the face of it, very impressive.

It seems clear that the USA was induced by the American Jewish lobby and Israel directly to attack Iran because Israel was in serious danger of losing the recent contest, its international airport closed, its ports mostly closed or avoided by foreign ships.

Those underground facilities in Iran indicate a long-term goal— regional hegemony. If Israel disappears, that leaves Iran as sole regional “superpower”, which may be why the craven Gulf Arabs are now effectively satraps of Israel and the USA. They are afraid of Iranian/Persian power.

War with Russia would be mad, but that does not mean it cannot or will not happen.

The real invasion (not the fantasy “Russian invasion”) continues, and will continue— unless the order is given to open fire, and neither Starmer-stein, nor Carpetbagger Kemi, nor Farage and his crew, will ever give such an order. They are all System fakes.

Reminiscences: temps perdu, and thoughts about mortality

When one is well over 60, as I now am (68; b. 1956), thoughts may naturally turn to mortality, life and death, and questions larger than the everyday concerns of life. That may be so when one notices that many people one has known in life are now defunct.

Some of the people I have known, or have merely met briefly or peripherally in the past, are still alive; many, however, are not. Some of those who are no longer alive have died from various natural causes (and are too numerous to list), others expired from unnatural causes (such as a Nigerian princess I knew, shot dead in Lagos in the late 1990s) or from causes or reasons unknown (such as the ex-husband of a lady I knew in the 1980s, which ex-husband apparently drowned in the Thames at London). A few, friends of friends rather than people I knew well, sadly died via suicide many years ago.

These thoughts came again to mind yesterday when I noticed information online to the effect that a former American colleague, a major-league American lawyer called Tim Scrantom, died some time ago, in 2021, apparently of a brain tumour. He was diagnosed in April 2021, and died 6 months later.

[Tim Scrantom, 1956-2025]

Tim Scrantom was a couple of months younger than me, a fact which sharpens my reminiscence.

I met Scrantom after a headhunter in New York suggested to him and his two main colleagues, in 2001, that I might suit his niche law firm (based in Charleston, South Carolina). I was telephoned in Turkey, where I was then resident, and we arranged to meet in London at one of my usual haunts, the Churchill Bar at the Hotel Russell in Russell Square.

I drove back to England via Greece, Bulgaria, Romania (the latter two then not EU states, and very ramshackle), Hungary (excellent country), Austria, Germany (calling in at Berchtesgaden), Luxembourg, and Belgium.

The upshot was that Scrantom and I became colleagues, he based mostly at Charleston (the office was at East Bay Street, in the conservation zone of the city), I mostly in London, though we both visited various offshore jurisdictions, once or twice in tandem, as when we went to Liechtenstein one day (well, I did; Scrantom had left his passport at the Mayfair Hotel, and only discovered that fact when we met at Heathrow, prior to flying to Zurich…).

Scrantom was a genial host. He invited my wife and me to dinner in Charleston in August or early September 2001 and, on a later solo visit, I visited his home on Sullivan’s Island, by Charleston, where he lived with his then wife (I believe they divorced later) and young daughter.

Scrantom, though a graduate from American law schools, an attorney in several states, and a professor of law as well, was also a barrister of Gray’s Inn in London. I was a barrister of Lincoln’s Inn, though many years later (2016) wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred at the instigation of a pack of malicious and politically-motivated Jew-Zionists.

Scrantom, incidentally, was a modest fellow, very much a “Southern gentleman”, born in Georgia and from a wealthy background. I liked him. I never knew (until yesterday) about some of his earlier adventures, such as sailing around the Bahamas on his yacht, exploring the Himalayas, or visiting edgy places in Cambodia and elsewhere in South-East Asia, though he did tell me that he knew several of the people portrayed in the famous book and film Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_in_the_Garden_of_Good_and_Evil_(film)], the events of which occurred in Savannah, Georgia, where Scrantom’s family members were largely based.

In September 2001, I was with Scrantom in a taxi in the Strand, London, when his wife called to say that New York was under attack. We interrupted our journey (to the Berkeley Square area of Mayfair) to get out at a Dixons store to look at the TV screens.

I well remember him later fuming that Iraq “must have” been behind the attack on the World Trade Center (that was the neo-con and American msm line at the time, of course) and that “Israel has the right idea” (i.e. bomb the hell out…). Well, he was wrong, of course, and we disagreed about that. Like most Americans, and despite his intelligence and education, he was influenced by the pro-Israel propaganda so pervasive in the msm in the USA (though his main colleague, Ron, a hard-driving former USAF officer, was more alive to the menace of Jew-Zionism, and he was, as one might expect, also pro-USA to the hilt).

Scrantom, even when I knew him, was a multimillionaire, and later become a major player in the field of “litigation insurance”, once called “champerty” and historically not lawful in most jurisdictions (including England): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champerty_and_maintenance; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champerty_and_maintenance#England_and_Wales. Now, it is considered more acceptable.

I do not much like the concept (and Jew-Zionists in England use “litigation insurance” to pursue pro-Israel “lawfare”), so maybe it is just as well that our professional connection was mainly severed in 2002, when I decided to return to the ordinary practising Bar in England. I then moved to a large country house in Cornwall, and was based professionally at Exeter.

As already mentioned, I liked Tim (though not his then wife, to be frank; I only met her once), though I should say that he and his two main colleagues had no idea at all about how to run a law firm.

Life is short, something few if any really understand when in their twenties or thirties. We all have to try to accomplish something, not in a careerist sense, but for the future of the Earth, while in any particular incarnation.

Tweets seen

That idiot, a (?) 30-something wannabee or occasional scribbler, tweeted something about me quite a while ago, I think in 2023 or 2024. He seems to be very pro-Jew-Zionist and pro-Israel, and his msm scribblings (it seems as part of teams, not sole bylines) were 6-11 years ago. A few more recent scribblings have been for online outlets (of which few have ever heard). https://muckrack.com/colin-cortbus/articles.

Apparently, that Cortbus person was once a UKIP activist (when a student, about 12-14 years ago).

I notice that that individual has only about 2,500 Twitter/X followers. When a pack of Jews had me expelled from Twitter in 2018, I had 3,000 followers (and that had been artificially lowered); by now I would have had tens of thousands of Twitter followers. Ah well…so much for “free speech” in this country…

Incidentally, I was unaware about that event in Zagreb. Looks as though parts of Europe are waking up.

…but look at that dishonest little Pakistani, Sajid Javid. Wrong once again. Remember his denial of the link between the migration invasion of tens of millions into the UK, and housing shortages?

Make that nearer to 10-15M, though…(plus births).

Starmer-stein is a total idiot. No idea about how to run the UK. Clueless. I predicted it, about 3-4 years ago, on the blog.

Scotland is even worse than England. Some of the idiots up there even claim to welcome being invaded by backward hordes!

The Labour Party in Scotland is actually headed by a Pakistani; so was (how ludicrous can you get?) the Scottish “National” Party, until recently.

As for that rapist, he will be out in 5-6 months. Shocking. The woman victim must be devastated and feel totally unprotected and unavenged.

Economic sanctions rarely work. When I was in Rhodesia in 1977, the roads outside the capital, Salisbury (now Harare) were empty, but that was not because of sanctions (fuel rationing only lasted 1965-1971). New cars were often seen in the city, though none were of British manufacture; French, I think Spanish, or other. Sanctions had limited effect— things such as books, Scotch whisky etc. Nothing really major. Tobacco, oranges, chrome etc were still exported (often under false flags).

Compare Putin to pathetic and dishonest Starmer-stein, or that truly ridiculous “diversity hire”, Lammy.

Not so much “wild geese” as Muscovy ducks…(only joking).

Unsurprising. Why should the peoples of Central and Western Europe (and USA) risk nuclear war for the sake of Zelensky’s brutal, shambolic, and very corrupt cabal? Most Ukrainian men are themselves trying to avoid serving in the Kiev-regime forces.

[“Israeli publication Haaretz reported that the US military used 93 THAAD interceptors in 11 days to defend Israel, revising previous cost estimates from $800 million to about $1.2 billion. With an annual production rate of about 36-48 THAAD interceptors, the US used up nearly two years’ worth of the missiles during the war.“]

Horrible. I hope they suffer for committing such crimes against the natural world. Barbarians.

Strange to think that, when I drove to the end of the almost-empty Karpas Peninsula in Northern Cyprus in early 2000, I was only 60 miles from Latakia in Syria. 60 miles, but a different world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karpas_Peninsula.

[“Few people noticed why exactly Israel launched a war against Iran on June 13. Here are three hidden reasons: 1. Just days earlier, the country was rocked by its largest pedophile scandal in history—one involving several high-ranking politicians. 2. Before the war, Iran hacked three terabytes of files from Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, which is known for collecting compromising information on global politicians. 3. Israeli PM Netanyahu risked losing power due to the unpopular proposal to draft ultra-Orthodox Jews into the Israeli military“]

I wonder what there is in that about Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Prince Andrew, Dershowitz, Clinton, Trump etc.

If MOSSAD or AMAN had that stuff, does the SVR now also have it, or some of it? About Trump, for example?

“The Consolation of Philosophy”?

Allison Pearson is a remarkably stupid woman.

I presume that Lewis is hiding out in Israel. He has or had a flat in Eilat, a fact that he concealed from the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal when he was found guilty on several charges in 2018. Indeed, his Counsel told the Tribunal that Lewis should have his fine greatly reduced because Lewis’s only assets were his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 a week.

Ecce the supposed “top defamation lawyer”!

Self-Publicizing Supposed “Top Lawyer” Mark Lewis: Full Transcript of Disciplinary Hearing Judgment Now Released by Tribunal

Mark Lewis is little better than a confidence trickster.

Incidentally, Lewis was an abusive husband when married briefly (one year) to the Z-list “celebrity” and, briefly, Sky News newsreader, Caroline Feraday (amusingly, best-known for having been sacked by text message by BBC local radio about 15 years ago).

Not that I care at all about Lewis’s abusive behaviour to his then wife, who now lives in a “nowheresville” in the outer regions of Los Angeles (see my blog posts).

The Feraday woman joined with Lewis in attacking me viciously on Twitter (about my opposition to the Jewish fake WW2 “reparations” scam); in fact she initiated the attacks, with which Lewis then joined in. Until then (many years ago, about 2012 or so), I had never heard of the bastard, or her.

Mark Lewis was (maybe still is) a “patron” of that evil and squalid organization, the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, working with its main characters, such as Gideon Falter (a proven liar and, arguably, perjurer) and the Jew-Zionist Israel fanatic, posing as “Head of Investigations and Enforcement”, whom we can call “Slitherman”.

An example below of Lewis’s abusive social media activity, which (after several years) got him into trouble (though not via me— unlike the Jew-Zionist troublemakers, I do not waste time making endless complaints to police etc):

(in fact, in 2018, it was revealed that Lewis constantly abused people on Twitter etc, even a young Jewish boy; Lewis blamed his medications for his abusive behaviour…).

Ecce Allison Pearson’s solicitor (apparently)…

My own Twitter account, as explained, was deleted by Twitter itself in 2018 at the instigation of effectively the same pack of Jews, while Caroline Feraday deleted her original Twitter account a year or two ago, mainly because it was too embarrassing for her in various ways. She has another Twitter/X account now (with only 115 “followers”, despite she herself following 166 Twitter/X accounts).

Caroline Feraday’s now-deleted Twitter account had, at one time, tens of thousands of “followers”, all fake, all bought by her and by “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, who himself bought nearly 80,000 in an attempt to seem important, popular etc. Legal business news outlets even commented, cautiously, about the dishonest fakery of Lewis and his then wife.

Caroline Feraday now works for local public radio station KCLU in Ventura County, California, a subsidized radio station (National Public Radio network) with (putting it jokingly) about half a dozen listeners.

A few years ago, Caroline Feraday was publicly begging on GoFundMe, in an attempt to raise a mere USD $5,000. Sic transit gloria mundi…(and “celebrity”)…

From last month; I missed that one.

“Cor, ‘ee’s well ‘ard!” (when arresting a woman of 83 doing basically nothing; the police are, shall we say, “not so hard” when confronting, if they ever do, predators and scavengers, such as those usually found living in caravans…).

Pathetic.

Ha. Soon “we shall all be (called) terrorists”…

I have seen the odd thing over the years from Rod Liddle with which I have agreed; quite a lot with which I disagreed. Also, my impression (I have never met him) is that he is rather an unpleasant person.

I could suggest something, but would not want some Jew-Zionist troublemaker making yet another contrived complaint to the police “service” about me.

The Israeli Jews are so brave, when firing at unarmed and defenceless civilians…

It’s a small world

I was just perusing the online newspapers, looking at a few current crimes and trials. While doing that, I noticed the continuing trial (in fact, retrial) of one Constance Marten, whose retrial has been in progress for a month or so (the original trial stopped in summer 2024).

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c78e1yq6d2eo

Obviously, the present retrial is in progress and so I cannot say anything by way of comment about the material facts or subject-matter. In any case, I do not know anything of the case, beyond what little I have read in newspapers or seen on TV news from time to time.

No, what struck me was something peripheral to the case.

On reading some accounts of the trial and retrial, I saw the photograph of one of the accused:

[Constance Marten, defendant]

I happen to have very good facial recognition skills. The picture reminded me slightly of someone I encountered a few times in the mid-1980s.

At the relevant time, about 40 years ago, I had a girlfriend who worked as an interpreter at a high level, working —inter alia— with people such as the then Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher (eg when Gorbachev visited the UK), and with organizations such as the U.N. Atomic Energy Agency (I.A.E.A.) and various Soviet dance groups, including the Bolshoi.

Thus it was that I encountered a young woman, 20-something, who was also interpreting, but on a lower technical level. More general or social interpreting.

The Bolshoi touring ensemble was, appropriately, large, well over 300 in all, everything from dancers to costume people and even a few persons from the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Culture, i.e, KGB minders etc. The job of the last group was not really, or primarily, to prevent defections of the kind seen in the 1960s and 1970s, but to guard against anti-Soviet (mostly Jew-Zionist) protestors (re. Shcharansky and other refuseniki) and to stop people getting into trouble. For example, the famous choreographer, Grigorovitch [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yury_Grigorovich] once got into a lift in Dublin (I was already there and just about to push a button) when a harassed fat bully KGB type stormed into the lift and rudely took over, pushing the button required to get his (well-drunk) charge back to the right floor.

Such a large ensemble required several interpreters.

Incidentally, I never met Grigorovitch (as such), but always used his wife’s laminated Bolshoi Ballet clip-on lapel pass to get past the security lines and get in to see the shows (fortunately, the individual name was on the other side of the pass, and there was no photograph!). His wife was the prima ballerina, Natalia Bessmertnova [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natalia_Bessmertnova]. She was too grand to actually wear or carry her laminated pass.

Incidentally, and incredibly, Grigorovitch is still alive at age 98, despite the abuse his liver must have suffered over nearly a century.

So I met that young woman mentioned, who had the unusual name Amabel (apparently one more common in both the Middle Ages and the Victorian period). I cannot now be sure, but thinking back, I think her surname was Marten or Martin; I had forgotten that until now.

Amabel was a pleasant young woman, I think probably quite a nice person generally, and was from, I was told, a wealthy landowning family who had houses, including large country houses, here and there, both in England and Ireland. In fact she and her —I was told, rather socially unacceptable to her family— boyfriend spent much of their time “looking after” (as she told me) a family-owned country house in some obscure part of the Irish countryside. My own girlfriend’s take on that was that it kept the boozy Irish boyfriend away from the family’s social circle.

I met the boyfriend once, in the large hotel in Dublin where the Bolshoi were all quartered, and where I was (unofficially) also staying (in my case for free). He was all right, and bought me a pint of Guinness, but I could see why her family may have preferred to keep him at arm’s length. I am not good at guessing ages, but anyway some years, several years at least, older than Amabel, with heavy black spectacles, and plainly drunk at three o’clock in the afternoon. In his thirties, maybe late thirties.

I was told that Amabel had told my girlfriend that when she, Amabel, was in St. Petersburg (then still Leningrad), she had been touring the Hermitage [https://www.hermitagemuseum.org/?lng=en; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermitage_Museum] when she saw some old English china. Some pieces had a representation of a large country house on them and, as she excitedly recounted to my girlfriend “...it was our house!” (pronounced “ower hice“…), referring to the family’s main seat, in rural Dorset.

Well, I got on rather well with Amabel on the very few times we met (I think only on that tour), and may have occasionally gently mocked her “upper class” background and social circle. Her (I think younger) sister, whom I met once somewhere, in England, I think, was a rather cold formal person (I thought), supposedly a one-time girlfriend of Prince Andrew (she eventually married a merchant banker).

When the Bolshoi ballerinas were relaxing, some were taken to Stratfield Saye, the seat of the Dukes of Wellington, halfway between Reading and Basingstoke, where a former schoolfriend of Amabel happened to be either the Duchess or the wife of the son of the then Duke, and who later succeeded to the title. I think the latter, thinking about it. A favoured few were allowed to ride some of the horses from the stables there.

After 1985 or 1986, I never saw Amabel again, and I have no idea at all how her life went. The only time I even heard of her was when she and her sister were mentioned (c.1989) by a forthright and wealthy lady who was helping (with others) to save the Rudolf Steiner Bookshop in Museum Street, near the British Museum, in London (that bookshop had to close, but the Rudolf Steiner Book Trust, which I established, and of which I was an unpaid director (with anthroposophist Nelson Willby and his American wife Melissa) for a couple of years, established Wellspring Books, which had premises in New Oxford Street for many years, and which still exists online. https://www.wellspringbookshop.co.uk/.

I remember that forthright lady partly because she would refer to her husband, a Jewish businessman, as “a six-pointer“, as if he had been bred from an unusual breed of animal.

Even that was 35 or 36 years ago now.

It was only today that I thought to see whether Amabel was related to that defendant. Turns out that she almost certainly was or is. The Dorset “hice” seems to be Crichel House (or “hice”):

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

[Crichel House, Dorset]

The house was owned by one Napier Marten or Napier Sturt Marten [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napier_Marten], born about 2-3 years after me, in 1959. He has or had no fewer than five sisters, one of which is or was Amabel Marten. He also has four children, one of whom is Constance Marten.

The house and 400 acres of the estate land was sold in 2013 for £34M to an American billionaire hedge-fund operator, one Richard L. Chilton.

Chinese artworks were also sold, for over £12M.

Well, there it is. Looks like the Amabel I encountered a few times in the mid-1980s is or was (I assume she is still around, but who knows?) the aunt of the accused, Constance Marten. Small world.

Update, 14 July 2005

(scroll down until you reach the bit about Amabel Marten and her husband, one Kieran (or Ciaran) Clarke etc; he apparently died in 2004 at the age of 52, and may or may not have been the person I met in Dublin in or about 1985 or 1986. It seems that the above house was only bought in 1990 or 1991).

Note that Labour, even then, would still have 119 MPs, because the vast majority of non-whites in the UK vote Labour. There must come a point at which this form of “democracy” ceases to be legitimate.

Free speech? What free speech?

I happened to see the following report in the online Mail on Sunday/Daily Mail:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14424959/Knock-knock-Thought-Police-thousands-criminals-uninvestigated-detectives-call-grandmother-crime-went-Facebook-criticise-Labour-councillors-centre-Hope-Die-WhatsApp-scandal-exposed-MoS.html

Highlights from that news report:

“EXCLUSIVE— Knock knock, it’s the Thought Police: As thousands of criminals go uninvestigated, detectives call on a grandmother. Her crime? She went on Facebook to criticise Labour councillors at the centre of the ‘Hope you Die’ WhatsApp scandal exposed by the MoS.

In a chilling clampdown on free speech, two police officers pay a visit to a grandmother – simply for criticising Labour politicians on Facebook.

Detectives were last night accused of acting like East Germany‘s feared Stasi secret police for quizzing Helen Jones over her calls for the resignation of local councillors embroiled in the WhatsApp scandal exposed by The Mail on Sunday.

Police conceded that the 54-year-old had committed no crime – yet Mrs Jones says she has effectively been silenced by the officers, as she was intimidated by them calling at her door and is too terrified to post on social media again.

‘It was actually quite scary. It made me think I best just keep quiet for the rest of my life, because you just can’t say anything these days,’ she said.

The response by Greater Manchester Police was also branded a waste of time and scant resources at a time when so many crimes go uninvestigated.

Toby Young, director of the Free Speech Union, said: ‘This is typical of the weird authoritarian atmosphere that has grown up in Britain since Sir Keir Starmer took control. Good luck persuading Greater Manchester Police to send two police officers to your house if you’re burgled or your car is stolen.'”

It is the latest in a string of incidents in which police have investigated people for social media posts, including newspaper columnist Allison Pearson, feminist writer Julie Bindel, and former policeman Harry Miller, whose name was added to a database for his ‘non-crime hate incident’. Mr Miller, who founded the Fair Cop campaign group, said of Mrs Jones’s treatment: ‘It flies in the face of our freedoms and it’s wrong. That’s far more akin to a European police force – or even worse a Stasi police force.’

At around 1.30pm last Tuesday, while Mrs Jones was looking after her baby grandson at a nearby house, a detective sergeant and another officer knocked at her door and spoke to her husband Lee, 54, via an intercom.

A shocked Mrs Jones rushed home fearing something tragic had happened to a loved one. At 2.15pm she received a phone call from an officer thought to be the same sergeant who knocked on her door and was told the police had received a complaint about her recent social media posts.

Speaking exclusively to the MoS, she said: ‘[The officer] said, ‘We’ve had a complaint,’ and I immediately asked, ‘From who?’, and he said, ‘Well, I can’t tell you that’.’

She asked if Cllr Sedgwick or his partner had made the complaint. ‘[The officer’s] exact words were ‘Your thought process is correct in that’,’ said Mrs Jones. ‘I asked the police officer, have I committed any sort of crime. Why did you call at my door? They said, ‘Someone has spoken to us about your social media posts.’

‘I then said, ‘If I don’t take your advice and continue doing what I am doing, will I be committing a crime?’ He said no. I then asked. ‘What will you do about it?’ He said, ‘There’s not a lot we can do, we are just giving you advice’.’

Regular readers of the blog will know that I have had similar experiences over the past decade (see below), all instigated by the Jew-Zionist lobby cabals, but you will not see or hear Toby Young, his “Free Speech Union”, the Daily Mail, Daily Telegraph, or scribbler Allison Pearson mention that, or defend my rights.

Incidentally, Toby Young puts the blame entirely on Starmer and fake Labour, who have only been in government for 7-8 months. The poundland police state in the UK goes back much further, certainly to Tony Blair’s premiership.

My own experiences as target of police-state measures instigated by Jew-Zionist pro-Israel fanatics go back to at least 2012, when the part-Jew David Cameron-Levita was PM. The same is true of the years when other part-Jews were in government as Prime Minister(s) of the UK in recent years— Theresa May and “Boris” Johnson, as well as during the government of the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.

“Welcome news, as more people fight back against Zionist trolls and bullies. Congratulations and solidarity to Ray Campbell! Now, we need to go on the front foot and directly target the anonymous Zionist trolls at ‘GnasherJew’ and the direct Zionist regime agents at the so-called Campaign Against Antisemitism. They must be aggressively pursued by legal, regulatory and political means. #DismantleZionism.”

Yes. Take action against the “CAA” and also against the two or three main Jews who are behind the making of those malicious complaints.

Stasi

Having seen (above) how the UK’s police are, or have turned into, a kind of poundshop Stasi, here is some “Ostalgie” about the real ones from the now-long-defunct DDR, which odd small state I myself saw, though not for long, in 1988:

Trump as potential “third term” U.S. President

John Bolton, a typical NWO/ZOG globalist drone.

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

All the same, the talk of Trump having a third term as President is interesting. Most people are dismissing the idea out of hand, but I wonder.

The last President to be elected to a third term (and I think the only one) was F.D. Roosevelt, in 1940; he was then once more elected, to a fourth term, in 1944, but died in office in 1945.

The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, restricting the number of terms to two, was adopted in 1947 but only ratified in 1951.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution#Attempts_at_repeal_or_reform

U.S. Constitutional amendments can be repealed by a further amendment, e.g. when the 18th Amendment (Prohibition) was repealed by the 21st Amendment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_amendments_to_the_Constitution_of_the_United_States.

Amaury de Riencourt, in his stellar work, The Coming Caesars [pub. 1957] examined the possibility of a U.S. President becoming (as many thought Roosevelt would become), an “American Caesar” (a designation also used for Douglas MacArthur, who many once saw as a future President, but who never seriously attempted to become one).

Just cut off all arms and ammunition (and money, and intelligence information) to the regime in Kiev. The war will then grind to a halt within a few weeks.

Zelensky poisons the future of all his supporters.

It just gets better and better…

[“Russian troops liberated two communities in the Donetsk region over the past day in the special military operation in Ukraine, Russia’s Defense Ministry reported: https://vk.cc/cISjt5“— TASS]

I never use “right“, “far right“, “left” etc, but the meaning is fairly clear— Europe is reawakening.

Late thoughts

Saw a few minutes of Sky News Press Preview. Guest? The Jew (I think the name was Rosenberg) who apparently heads the Board of Deputies of British Jews, i.e. the voice of the Jews, or most of them (?), in the UK. Needless to say, pro-Zelensky etc.

Zelensky’s “offer” to resign if he gets what he has been demanding for several years, i.e. Ukraine’s membership of NATO, is of course just a bad joke, a complete nullity.

The fact is that the balance of power in that war, and in Eastern Europe, perhaps all of Europe, has tipped decisively. Zelensky is an irrelevance now, and his Kiev regime is obviously going to implode; either that, or Russian tanks will be in or around Kiev by 2027 at the latest.

Likewise, Starmer, Macron, and whoever now heads Germany, are sidelined.

This may change everything, even in the UK.
