I remember that. I mentioned the matter on the blog a day or two before the “Ukrainians” (creatures of Zelensky’s regime) killed him.

Reform has ranked 1st in 8 of the last 10 national polls in Britain
Not exactly. Trump has treated the little NWO/ZOG hirelings, such as Macron, Starmer, Tusk and, a fortiori, Zelensky, with the contempt they deserve. They have outlived their usefulness, and are now dismissed. A salutary lesson for all intending traitors.

Looks as if Goodwin has woken up to what I have been blogging for many years. My blog post below (updated frequently) dates from 2019…
To guess at likely election results 4 years ahead of time is to go where the angels fear to tread, of course, but why should I stop now?!
To my mind, assuming we avoid nuclear war etc, the result of the next UK general election will be something like Reform UK 30%, Labour 25%, Con 18%, LibDems maybe 12%, Greens maybe 8%.
That would in turn result in Reform UK having 319 Commons seats (Lab 157, LibDem 60, Con 50, Greens 4 etc).
A Reform UK on the brink of an overall majority, but look at the Con Party! 50 seats, and only 4th placed behind Reform, Labour, and the LibDems. Terminal.
Unfortunately, I cannot see much chance, as yet, for a genuinely social-national party to emerge. The rise of Reform has taken the wind out of those sails. Still, all roads lead to Rome…
‘Should we farm octopuses for food?’ Definitely NOT! Nor any other sentient being No creature should ever be cruelly caged and confined#FactoryFarming is a stain on humanity and #shames us all@ciwfhttps://t.co/dR8cmDGq0m
Octopus are one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet. They even show gratitude to humans when shown kindness. No one could pay me any amount of money to eat them. https://t.co/EHPip2aPL4
Aristotle, apparently, called the octopus “a stupid creature“. Aristotle was wrong. It seems that he said that because an octopus will approach a man’s hand in water. We now know that that is because the octopus wants to be friendly, and is sometimes willing to take the risk that the man may not be. Aristotle can now be both understood and corrected.
The relentless sound of our heads smashing against the wall in frustration is met with nothing but silence—because, of course, the ones who should be listening couldn’t care less.
That would result in Reform UK having 189 MPs (Lab 181, Con 162, LibDem 58, Greens 4). A hung Parliament requiring a Reform-Con agreement of some kind.

Russian air defense forces shot down a Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter jet over the past day in the special military operation in Ukraine, Russia’s Defense Ministry reported:https://t.co/nypI6OasZJpic.twitter.com/rg3F0vKcdi

Zelensky is a dictator, or at least the figurehead of a dictatorship. That is a fact. Elections “delayed” and not expected to be held for years, if ever. Dissidents arrested, with some imprisoned, some even shot. Trade unions banned. Opposition parties, opposed to the war, or favourable to negotiation with Russia, banned. Military recruits simply seized off the streets and brutally pressganged.
That’s before you even start with the pervasive corruption, which is worse the higher you get in the Ukrainian fake state. Every kind of international gangsterism and moneylaundering is there.
Zelensky and his cabal is now sidelined as a near-irrelevance. Why? Because the Kiev regime is not a real player in the war. Stop the arms and ammunition (and vast amounts of US, EU, and UK taxpayer monies) going to the Kiev regime, and the war will stop within weeks. The war juggernaut cannot run without that fuel.
There are only two real players in the war, Russia and the USA, and now, thank God, they are both interested seriously in a negotiated peace, or at least a negotiated armistice.
The EU states and the UK are not serious players because the amount of arms, ammunition, and money they are wasting on the Kiev regime is less than half of the total spend. If the USA stops funding the Kiev regime but the EU and UK continue, the war will continue for a while until, before very long, Russian forces prevail and the Zelensky dictatorship collapses (in 2025 or 2026).
Ukraine is not a proper state, and was not even when it was established, in the 1990s. I have heard tales of corruption and degeneracy that would make your hair stand up on end. Now, even basic State functions are only carried out because of the Western money being funneled to the regime.
Trump may not be a particularly likeable man or leader, but I seriously think that, to put it in traditional terms, “God is on his side” in trying to close down this terrible war; in other respects as well.
Russia has been partly to blame. I blame the leadership (from high to low) of the Russian Army, air force, SVR, and also the political leadership, for not having conducted a swift and unstoppable coup de main and coup d’etat in early 2022.
I have written about this previously on the blog. Something akin to the way in which the Afghan government was removed in 1979.
Swift. Relentless. Remorseless.
Had that been done, civilian casualties and environmental damage would have been minimal. The whole thing would have been over in a few days.
Going from the sublime to the ridiculous, the minor would-be players, such as Starmer, and (if the idiot is worth even mentioning) David Lammy, are just making themselves look ridiculous. They talk about “British boots on the ground in Ukraine“, when only between 5,000 and (at very most) 10,000 troops could be sent, and they would be irrelevant in such a situation, quite apart from quite likely sparking a major Russia-NATO war.
Little lawyer Starmer is out of his depth. He should leave Ukraine alone and start to do something (if he even wants to, and if he is capable of doing anything useful) about the invasion of Britain by blacks and browns.
As said, Zelensky can be regarded as a dictator or, perhaps more accurately, the figurehead of a dictatorial cabal of thieves, those thieves posing as a legitimate government.
People in the Western msm, and System politics, are now waking up to what I have been presuming for some time, namely that, if a European NATO state calls upon the “mutual aid” Article 5 of the NATO treaty, regarding a situation arising from the Ukraine situation, and if that state wants other NATO states to weigh in against Russia, the USA (all the more so now Trump is President) might well say “no” in respect of US forces, or nuclear weapons, getting involved.
NATO has outlived its usefulness.
The idea that Russia wants to occupy central and western Europe, or even most of eastern Europe (Poland, the Baltic states), is ridiculous anyway. Those EU states and others throwing money at the Zelensky “government” in Kiev are a joke. Wasting money which should be going to improve the lives of their own citizens, whose taxes are being stolen, in effect.
Britain should be ready to normalize relations with Russia now. In fact, that is the only way that Brexit can work properly. We can form a mutually-beneficial trading and strategic connection with Russia. The rest of Europe (within or without the EU) should do the same.
“British Legacy Media in meltdown mode after JD Vance Speech “Again he’s talking rubbish” “Because of Russian interference” The pundits dismiss Vance’s accurately poignant comments as “rubbish & nonsense” and continue to indulge in complete fantasies. Thankfully people are now starting to see straight through these charlatans.“
Ecce the state of “British” political discourse in the msm or “legacy mass media”— a discussion between incredibly ignorant and uncultured scribbler Susie Boniface (the so-called and self-styled “Fleet Street Fox”), and some black woman whom I know not; no idea who she might be.
Those two, and a young woman presenter also unknown to me, “discuss” (entirely tendentiously), the geopolitical consequences of the comments and policies of Trump, J.D. Vance, and Putin. Risible.
That may or may not explain the drastic fall in birth-rates in the more advanced countries, but how to explain the fall of the birth-rate in places such as China, and even India?
In fact, the only regions (with a couple of small exceptions) where the population is still growing via human births (as distinct from mass immigration) are Africa (mainly sub-Saharan Africa, black Africa) and Pakistan/Afghanistan.
Look at the graphic from 2020 (which is already out of date, and the trends noted even more stark in 2025). Replacement of population only happens around or slightly higher than 2.1 children born per woman (average). People used to talk, in the 1960s, 1970s, about the average British family in their modest suburban house and “with 2.4 children”.
Look now. The birth-rate of Europeans is well below replacement rate. UK around 1.5.
That is true (see graphic) even in France and Sweden, whose higher birth-rates are entirely by reason of the invasion by blacks and browns (i.e. children born to the invaders).
I do not know whether the “birth-control in the water” scenario is true, or to what extent, and whether that is deliberate or accidental, and to what extent, if at all, deliberate.
An alternative explanation for the fact that only in the most backward regions (Africa and Pakistan/Afghanistan, parts of the Middle East) are births now well beyond replacement level might be that only the most backward discarnate souls are not now, or have not been relatively recently on the Earth plane. Only or mostly the Africans and south-west Asians now flock into incarnation, to experience the civilization at its height (in some ways).
That may portend the end of our present civilization quite soon.
What the world needs is for a quintessence of the advanced peoples to create a nucleus of Aryan or post-Aryan people, and for that nucleus to create a relatively small number of families who, in turn, can be the seed of a people who, in their turn, can create the basis for a much later super-culture based on —in the correct sense— a super-race.
Most Europeans of today are descended from only three men of the Bronze Age. Worth remembering that fact.
JD Vance is saying out loud what millions of European people are thinking. We are losing our nations through mass uncontrolled immigration, broken borders, censorship, and an elite class that no longer represents the values and voice of the Forgotten Majority

A la recherche du temps perdu
Was just indulging, again, in a favourite pointless (?) occupation, namely looking at street scenes via Google Earth Street View.
Fascinating how areas change over time.
I notice that a building between Whitehall and the river, once used by part of MI5, and also other government bodies, is now a luxury hotel charging some £600+ per night: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corinthia_Hotel_London.
The close-nearby (and 4*) Royal Horseguards Hotel, which I have visited a couple of times, though only the bar, and which is a good hotel with views of the Thames from many of the rooms, currently charges about £200+ per night, a third as much as the Corinthia.
Well, while the whole Russia-Ukraine-NATO situation is now cast into the hazard, there can be no doubt that, with Trump’s accession, the Kiev regime is on the back foot.
I notice, though, that the usual NWO/ZOG voices are now talking about a general European war within a short time (as little as one year from today!). How desperate they are to foment a war with Russia. As the old saying goes, “be careful what you wish for”. A war with Russia would probably result in the annihilation of much of the Europe we know, including much of the UK (if not all).
High-ranking officials from Russia and the United States are reportedly set to hold talks in Saudi Arabia next week to prepare for a potential meeting between the leaders of the two nations, according to Bloomberg:https://t.co/gZhoshoFSBpic.twitter.com/UX8j4OHPND

“Cash-strapped” NHS Trusts spent £13.5 million on “diversity and equality” jobs —some of which had higher pay than junior doctors and oversaw training in “whiteness”, “colonialism” and “allyship”.
So according to that stupid woman, the “top priority” of the EU should not be the interests or well-being of the EU or its peoples, or their prosperity, or anything other than whatever the brutal, shambolic and corrupt Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev may demand from the EU states?
Is she mad, or just another tool of NWO/ZOG? Mostly the latter, I think..
“In more recent times [Garton Ash] has represented a British liberal pro-EU viewpoint, nervous at the rise of Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump and Brexit.

In the early 1940s, Jewish scientists created the atom bomb, with the idea of using it in Europe, especially on German cities. There was a possibility, theoretically, that the first test detonation would set Earth’s atmosphere on fire. They took the risk because to them, as Jews, killing the world’s only National Socialist state took priority over the survival of all life on Earth. See the kind of thinking they had? Zelensky is no different.
To me, provisionally, this Chernobyl attack looks very much like a “false flag”, trying to stop Trump and/or the EU leaders talking to Putin.
The fact is that Zelensky is not really a player . Without American or EU arms, ammunition, money, and other aid, “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) cannot continue to prosecute this drawn-out and agonizing war. Cut off the supply, and Zelensky’s regime implodes within days, certainly within weeks. He is a man of straw.
Something revealing happened on Question Time last night …
We had a debate about the small boats. As I say in the clip below, Labour Ministers like Jacqui Smith who claim Labour is fixing the crisis are lying to you.
Does anyone really watch BBC Question Time these days? I would guess a small tranche of the population, 55+ or 65+ in years, mostly. People who fail to see that it is just a rigged system propaganda show.
Looking at tweets, seems that one panellist was ignorant Labour-label expenses cheat Jacqui Smith [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqui_Smith], who is basically a fraudster (she even claimed on her expenses for her husband’s TV porn-watching!) A total fraud. Member of Labour Friends of Israel, of course. Also, entirely without any intelligent or cultural mentality of any use. Chucked out of Parliament by the voters, only to be given a fake title of “Baroness” and put into the discredited “House of Lords”.
Oh, and the Jew scribbler George Monbiot was yet another System-approved guest last night, it seems, droning on about “appeasement” and saying that “Ukraine” (the Jewish/Zionist regime in Kiev) should be given “whatever it wants“.
Fiona Bruce, presenter, had asked about how Ukraine might “defeat Russia“. Of course Monbiot could not answer, and just waffled, because “Ukraine” cannot “defeat Russia“, a proper state (unlike “Ukraine), and with a population several times that of Ukraine, with a proper army, its own supplies of arms, ammunition, money, food, oil and gas etc, and a territory many times that of Ukraine (even on the pre-2014 borders).

The way things are going, Israel may be living on borrowed time. If Iran develops nuclear warheads, half the Jews in the world (those in Israel/Occupied Palestine) may go up in smoke.
Starmer is either a political idiot (maybe an idiot anyway, for all his “KC” and former “DPP” ranks…), or a puppet of “the usual suspects”; maybe both. I think both, really.
Imagine betting other people’s, the British people’s, money and future on a one-trick-pony like Zelensky, who has already lost.
Those tweets refer to the dishonest and/or negligent legal advice given to at least two of the three losing defendants in the libel case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased) and Cantor.

…and who could blame them? A fake “state” headed by a drug-fuelled Jew-Zionist former comedian who is, at best, a loose cannon.
Is it only now that Zelensky realized that “Ukraine” was never going to join NATO? Yet stupid Starmer still pretends that the contrary is the case…
I think that that says more about Starmer’s lack of geopolitical grasp than anything. There again, Starmer is just an Israel-lobby puppet anyway.
Entry of a candidate-state into NATO (under its own rules) has to be approved by all NATO member-states. Several are now against even pretending that “Ukraine” can join or will join. The USA is the most important but others too. Hungary, Germany (though the Germans may pretend otherwise); I think a few others as well.
The pretence seems to be “not this year”, and not next year; maybe in or around 2030. Maybe. Maybe not. I think never. The fake “Ukraine” state may not even exist by 2030, or even 2026.
How long can NATO even exist? 2028? Were the USA to pull out of NATO, about two-thirds of its overall funding (funding including the funding of national forces and their arms and armament etc) would disappear.
Likewise, were the USA to take over Greenland (thus provoking Denmark, a full NATO member), the alliance would probably fall to pieces one way or the other.
It even occurs to me that Trump’s recent statements about taking over both Greenland (territory of Denmark) and Canada (a full NATO member) were actually designed to weaken NATO. I have no doubt that Putin and his circle welcomed (secretly) Trump’s outbursts. Is that too “conspiracy theory”? Maybe. Unsure.

Many MPs have lied on their CVs. Not just overblown their academic and work backgrounds, but lied outright. Iain Dunce “Duncan Smith” is but one. Rachel Reeves is far from being the only defaulter. She is, however, also egregiously hopeless at her job, which is even more relevant. Incidentally, yet another Labour Friends of Israel member.
Interesting to hear Patrick O’Flynn [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_O%27Flynn], former UKIP MEP and journalist, use the term “System” as I do on the blog (as when he says, there, “System people“). Is he one of the politicians and commentators who peruse my views, or is that simple co-incidence?
Reform are now beating Labour in the polls. Labour are losing a member every 10 minutes. Reform could soon overtake them there too.

Unpleasantness ran and runs right though “New Labour”, and Starmer-Labour is just a pointless, meaningless offshoot of Blair-Brown “New Labour”.
Bastani is right, of course, about the appallingly-low quality of MPs. Since 1997 and, particularly, 2010 (and as often said by me on the blog), that fact is inescapable. Not just in fake Labour though; also true of the fake “Conservative” Party, and fake “Liberal Democrat” Party (remember Jo Swinson?).
Reform UK is “controlled opposition”, of course, but is moving the Overton Window. When that has moved far enough, social nationalism can enter the arena.
Blast from the past: the “Mrs Duffy” moment in 2010
Mrs Duffy, uneducated, “ignorant” etc, knew far more than “educated” fake “big brain”, globalist puppet Gordon Brown. In the past 15 years, her superior understanding of the mass immigration crisis (if not put in a very polished way, so be it) still resonates —in fact, more than even in 2010— whereas Gordon Brown is just a washed-up System politician now exposed as far from the great mind he (and his tendentious wife/carer/psychiatric nurse) thought.
Aaron Bastani is far from my position, ideologically. Having said that, he often speaks the truth as he sees it.
Both Lab and Con parties, the main two System parties, are losing all credibility; the LibDems, as “dustbin” or “default alternative” party, never had much to lose.
Trump, and Trump’s White House
Of course, it is easy to see the Trump White House as a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, looking at recent tweets etc (see below)
Elon Musk's son tells Trump, “You’re not the President and you need to go away” pic.twitter.com/z3e09vbXBL
Looks as though Musk should have a word with the child’s nanny. The child seems short on good manners. (I have to admit that it made me laugh, though; look at Trump’s expression!).
Very odd. Where did the child hear that, to regurgitate it?
That scene really does seem mad, disorderly.
On the other hand, until Trump took over, the international situation, and several regional issues, seemed stuck in glacial mud. He has disrupted that pattern. As psychologists say, a “pattern-interrupt”.
It may seem absurd to want to buy Greenland, annex Canada, and turn the Jew-Zionist-devastated Gazan hellscape into a Mediterranean beach resort, but all of those ideas have at least made people think about alternative realities.
To compare Trump’s disruptive ideas to the campaigns of Alexander the Great may seem to stretch “first time tragedy, second time farce“, in the famous comment of Marx, to breaking point, but history is sometimes moved by ideas that seemed absurd.
Look at the state of Israel itself. When Herzl and others first came up with the idea of Israel as a state, they were just a few Jews in the lower strata of the Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires. Their ideas seemed crazed, and they themselves had no genuine ancestral link to Palestine, which was then one of the poorer provinces of the Ottoman Empire. Also, the Ottoman Empire might have been “the sick man of Europe” but it sat there, apparently immovable in its vast power.
Is Trump trying to make his Gaza plan (“Club Trump?) seem more credible by hiding it among even crazier-seeming plans? One thinks of stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and E.W. Hornung.
Where do you hide a pebble? On a beach. Where do you hide a murder? Among other apparently-similar murders. Where do you, as a fugitive person, hide? Not in isolated places but in a big city. So where do you hide your plan to seize Gaza? Among other apparently-mad plans.
A paranoid analysis, possibly; also, though, possibly, accurate.
Trump cannot realistically seize Canada. He cannot, either, seize Greenland, not without smashing NATO to pieces. He could, however, take over Gaza. The Israelis (quelle surprise) seem open to the idea. After all, from where would come most if not all inhabitants of the proposed Club Trump, Club Gaza? Israel, of course, or Jew-Zionist settlers from places such as New York City.
“Greater Israel”, in some form, seems more than a mere “conspiracy theory”.
When Trump was serving out his first term, this blog described him as “a loudly-squawking parrot in a gilded cage, guarded by a phalanx of Jews“, and that remains broadly the case, but perhaps less so in this second term. Trump no longer needs the Jewish lobby or Israel lobby for political purposes, though he would not want to make an enemy of them either, whether for political or business reasons.
Trump may be thinking in terms of “legacy”, especially after the assassination attempt(s).
Looks as though Trump is also determined to bring an end to the war in and around Ukraine. He must know that the quickest way to do that is to restrict or stop money, arms, and ammunition flowing to the Kiev regime.
That “charity” was set up by Rory Stewart himself. His wife was an employee of his prior to their marriage. I believe that she was married or engaged to someone else at the time. She is half-Jewish, I believe. See also:
My assessment of Stewart, published in 2019 and updated over the years, has proven to be fairly popular with readers. He himself is part-Jew, incidentally, a fact of which I admit I was unaware until an alert blog reader sent information (read the published assessment).
As for Stewart’s wife and that “artwork” etc, funny how “they” are always around when degenerate influences are promoted.

Ukraine's President Zelensky says he won't accept any peace deal reached between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin without Ukraine's involvement – follow live https://t.co/Hid5lUXJz6
Zelensky is living on borrowed time. How long before tidal waves of tanks roll into Kiev?
As soon as the money/arms/ammunition tap is shut off, or the flow reduced to a trickle, the Kiev regime will just implode. “Ukraine” is not a real state at all.
Full quote: “I welcome what the Minster has said from the despatch box. Can I ask the Minister if she agrees with me that in this new world, and in the event of any peace deal, that the United Kingdom and its European allies must lead in providing Ukraine with military support…
It always looks ludicrous when “British” politicians of today try to play the “war leader and statesman” card, even when they have some underwhelming “military experience”; neither Sunak nor Starmer have any at all. Neither, of course, has Maria Eagle, a former solicitor best known as MP for having been an expenses cheat [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Eagle#Expenses_controversy].
Maria Eagle is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, of course.
Look and learn. When “they” have power, as in Russia/Soviet Union after the Bolshevik “Revolution” (coup d’etat).
If some of the Palestinian Arabs sometimes do monstrous things, as on the day or two before the Israeli attack on Gaza in 2023, it is because they have been made monstrous by, mainly, Jewish/Israeli behaviour.
That might translate into a Commons with 276 Reform UK MPs! Also, according to Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] 139 Lab, 108 Con, 59 LibDem, 4 green, 40 SNP; 24 others.
Still no majority (50 short), but I imagine that, under those circumstances, some Con MPs would defect, and others support ad hoc.
Were Reform to be able to get even one extra point, to 30%, then, even with other figures unchanged, its MP cadre would be around 298 (Lab 129, Con 95, LibDem 60).
Were Reform on 30% and Cons a point lower than in the opinion poll, i.e. on 20%, Reform would have 318 MPs, 8 short of a majority but with very close to a working majority. The Cons, though would have only 75 MPs.
For the long-established Conservative Party, effectively terminal. Not even the official Opposition. Maybe not even the third party.
Tim Montgomerie has recently opined that the Conservative Party might be expiring; for once, I agree with him. Or does he, belatedly, agree with me?
Fake “Labour” will decline but not so far or so fast, because about 20%, maybe more, of the electorate is now black/brown, and that percentage will increase inexorably, because few white/British children are being born. Virtually all the births now are from the ethnic minorities (who, within half a century, will certainly be the majority, unless action is taken to prevent that). They all vote Labour; at least 90% of them do.
Opinion polls suggest that among those aged 18-24, only about 5%, if that, vote Conservative; about 80% vote Labour. Who are those young voters? Largely, the non-whites.
So today we learn GDP-per-person down again in Britain. Why? Because all that mass low-skill, low-wage immigration is not making us more prosperous and productive as experts promised. On the contrary, it’s making us poorer and eroding living standards https://t.co/bH1j3G70WM
As the Dad’s Army character used to say (about inserting cold steel into the fuzzie-wuzzies) “they don’t like it up them!“
Rory Stewart, as “Conservative” Party MP, voted for all the mean-spirited social-security/”welfare” cuts of the 2010-2015 Cameron-Levita misgovernment. Now his (or his wife’s, which is effectively the same) far more generous “welfare” has been cut back, it’s all unfair and wrong, apparently.

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

A health minister who hopes pensioners will be dead before the next election and a chancellor who withdraws the winter fuel allowance, Labour are a disgrace! 😡😡😡
Starmer and Andrew Gwynne may loath pensioners and want them dead before the next election, but they seem to have forgotten the millions of people coming towards retirement have had the winter fuel allowance snatched away from them and won’t forgive. Labour are dead in the water.
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 not “fighting” 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.
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.
Do you trust Kemi Badenoch and the Conservative Party will lower immigration if they are returned to power?

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.

“Just 1 in 20 visas that Britain handed out to immigrants in 2022-2023 went to people who are likely to make a net contribution to the economy”. https://t.co/amLAYUsp5d
There is a constant attempt in the msm to downplay immigration as a social and political issue, as if it is some kind of side-issue or non-issue. Far from it. It impacts every other social and political issue, from housing and water supply to policing, law and order, educational standards, transport, pay, State benefits (including pensions)— you name it.
Indeed, the System still tries to pretend that immigration is beneficial, both socially and economically, despite the enormous weight of evidence to the contrary. The level of deception and, on the part of the System drones themselves, self-deception, is almost incredible.
So we in the UK still have “compulsory blacks” in pretty much every TV drama, “soap”, TV ad, panel discussion etc. “Blacks with Everything”, to adapt the name of the well-known play by Arnold Wesker. I wrote about it some 6 years ago on the blog. That despite the fact that actual blacks (Africans, West Indians/Afro-Caribbean) make up “only” about 5% or 6% of the whole UK population.
The propaganda is not aimed, primarily, at persons of my age (68) or indeed those in their 50s, 40s, or even 30s, but at “the young” and, especially, at children whose critical faculties are relatively or completely undeveloped.
The aim of that sort of propaganda is to normalize both the multikulti society and, even more so, inter-racial relationships, resulting in mixed-race children and, ultimately, in an entirely mixed-race society (except at the top level), as provided for by the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan and, at least impliedly, by the Protocols of Zion:
A lot of fuss (whichever side you are on) over one runway at one major airport. Meanwhile, the fake “green” agenda has shut down much-needed power stations, damaged the automotive industry, interferes in various ways in the lives of tens of millions of British people, and for what? Really, for what?
In the words of Fleet Street in the past, “you read it here first!”. This blog predicted that Starmer and his cabal, once in government, would [pretend to] “solve” the “small boats” invasion by simply approving, whether in France or elsewhere, the asylum applications of 95% of the invaders. Likewise the problems of accommodating the invaders in the UK.
The migrant-invaders are, increasingly, being given accommodation across the country in council houses, other social housing, and B%B accommodation paid for by local councils (local people, in other words) and by taxpayers generally. They are, thus, less visible than when all concentrated in hotels. They simply become part of “the UK’s housing crisis” almost all of which is, in reality, an immigration crisis.

Very true. Apart from which, and despite the flaws adherent to all empires, the British Empire was great and, overall, or on the whole, something positive.
You only have to look at any TV quiz show, such as The Chase, Mastermind, or even University Challenge, to see that most English/British people have no real sense of their own history.
For many, it comes down to a few simple or cartoon views of a mere handful of periods such as Industrial Revolution, Victorian era, Henry VIII/Elizabeth I/Spanish Armada, maybe the English Civil War, and of course WW2 (largely, the Battle of Britain air war) with a few other individuals and events standing out as historical stalagmites, and usually thought of as isolated cameos, akin to the Swiss legend of Wilhelm Tell having to shoot an apple off the head of his son.
Robin Hood, William the Conqueror and the Battle of Hastings, Drake, maybe Waterloo, and Churchill (as indomitable hero leader, not as the warmonger and hopeless strategist who destroyed —thanks to US and Soviet alliances— not only the German Reich, but his own British Empire and those of all other European powers.
No wonder that so many silly people, if asked their views of the current migration-invasion, reply along the lines of “we have always had immigration— Romans, Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Huguenots...” etc, as if the invasion of this country by non-Europeans, in the millions, indeed the tens of millions, is effectively the same!
I have occasionally wondered what motivates idiots such as Socialist Worker Party demonstrators. Time after time (over the past 50+ years— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialist_Workers_Party_(UK)), the said idiots turn up in the cold rain, wave their placards, shout slogans or insults, and achieve exactly nothing. For half a century. According to Wikipedia, there are about 2,500 paid up members, but the average turnout seems to be about a dozen.
Still, to expect reason from the unreasonable is itself unreasonable.
The SWP was established, like its predecessor orgs, by a Jew called Gluckstein, who took on the protective camouflage of a British-sounding name— “Tony Cliff” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Cliff].

Thus proving that about a third of the population are non-European and/or irredeemably stupid and/or outright enemies of the British people and a decent future for them.

Carpetbagger Kemi should scuttle back to the USA or Nigeria.
Acc. to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would translate into Labour 300 seats, Cons 119, Reform 113, LibDems 71 (Greens 4, SNP 12 etc). So a Labour minority government propped up by SNP/LibDem/PC votes.
Still, with such a split, a point or two can make all the difference. One point less for Labour, one point more for Reform, and the picture looks very different: Lab 260, Reform 157, Cons 109, LibDems 71. The result would be a weaker Lab minority govt. even more reliant on LibDem (etc) support. Also, Reform rather than Cons as official Opposition.
Only 22% of Brits say they approve of Keir Starmer. Look at this chart
“Only 22% of Brits say they approve of Keir Starmer. Look at this chart. Opinium tonight.”

Jew-Zionists often make false and malicious complaints of “racial harassment”. Several have done the same to me over the years, the latest (of which I am aware, at least) having been made by Stephen Silverman, self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement at the tiny but (((well-funded))) fake charity, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which complaint to police about me amounted to an attempt to pervert the course of justice. I have no idea why the police let Silverman and the “CAA” get away with stunts like that. He/Gideon Falter/”CAA” have been doing it for 10+ years, not only against me but also against many others (on various legal bases)— David Icke, Al-Jazeera TV, and many many other people and organizations
That faked complaint against me, on the entirely false basis of “racial harassment”, was back in 2021. The false complaint failed, as did all the others, but was then quite wrongfully twisted into a complaint against me on a different legal basis, which eventually led to my free speech trial of 2023. See below:
I hope that P.C. Plod and the “Clown” Prosecution Service are now, even if belatedly, aware of the malicious and troublemaking character of Silverman and his “CAA” pressure group.
In the circumstances, all those convicted of “rioting”, forceful protesting, pushing against police riot shields etc etc and imprisoned should be released on licence forthwith, at the very least.
Look at it….and the country now harbours many many like it…

“Arabic might be considered the richest language in words based on its complexity. According to The National – the United Arab Emirates’ leading English-speaking news outlet – on average, a single written word in Arabic has three meanings, seven pronunciations and 12 interpretations.“
Not merely a philological curiosity; it means that the meaning and/or intent of the Arab is not necessarily clear-cut.
True, the same word in English can have several meanings (some words can, that is), but I do not think that that is quite the same, mainly because, in English, the meaning is usually obvious from the context. Also, it applies to a relatively few words, not “the average“.
Something for the Arabists in the Foreign Office to consider, if they have not all been purged, and replaced by Zionists (which may well be the case, looking at UK representation in Ukraine and Israel in recent years).

“Ukraine has…uh…Biological Research Facilities…we’re concerned that some of this research…could fall into the wrong hands…” -Victoria Nuland
A few years ago, I posted on the blog my experience, sometime around 1994 or 1995, of having visited the UK’s biological research laboratories at Porton Down, Wiltshire, in company with the then Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK, who later became both an unsuccessful candidate for the Presidency of Ukraine and the director of a biological facility in Ukraine (he was a biochemist/microbiologist by training):

“Reform UK can win scores of Labour seats in England and Wales, says study.
Analysis of a mega poll shows Keir Starmer would lose more seats than Tories amid voter discontent with main parties.
Labour faces losing scores of seats to Reform UK across England and Wales as a widening section of voters lose faith in the mainstream parties, according to a new analysis seen by the Observer.
With senior figures in the Labour party now privately talking about a “change of era” in which more moderate voters are turning to Nigel Farage’s party, new research on Reform’s influence suggests it will take far more seats from Labour than from the Conservatives on current trends.
Reform would win 76 seats if an election were held now, according to a constituency-by-constituency model. Of those, 60 would be won from Labour, including seats across the “red wall”, as well as in Wales and across the south of England.
However, the analysis also reveals that even a relatively small further swing towards Reform from Labour could see the party pick up another 76 Labour-held seats.
The narrow Labour lead in many seats means it is susceptible in the event of a high turnout among Reform voters, a surge in Reform’s support, or a drop in Labour turnout.
The huge study, commissioned by the Hope Not Hate campaign group, has been carried out by the Focaldata polling company using a mega-poll, or MRP, made up of almost 18,000 voters.
Its analysis of almost 4,000 voters currently minded to back Reform found that one in five were “moderate, interventionist” voters who were unlike those who had backed Farage at the last election or supported Ukip or the Brexit party in the past.“
[The Observer/Guardian]
So there it is. Reform could end up with 152 seats even on present polling and trending.
As frequently noted, Reform is part of the journey, not the ultimate destination, but this news, overall, is very good.

“I spent the weekend in an act of ‘wild service’ helping to restore nature & maybe helping to heal some if the urban/rural divide.
In an event organised by @StEthelburgas &@letterstoearth_, a group of urbanites came together in the glorious welsh countryside to plant hedges & trees.
The method of planting 100’s of metres of hedges to connect up existing habitats (copses, ponds, areas of scrub etc) cleverly balanced allowing the land to be used for farming whilst giving more connected space for Nature.
The thing I wasn’t expecting though was crossing cultural divides. Witnessing some of the farmers on twitter & in the media who repeat culture war bait about hating both Nature & urbanites in the countryside had coloured my impression of farmers more generally. However, our host Dave was so kind & welcoming to his land & seemed genuinely touched that we had come out to help plant & restore; the jar of homemade honey he gave to each of us was a wonderful reward for a weekend well spent.“

Trump is promulgating tariffs on imports from a range of countries and blocs presently major trading partners with the USA. Canada and the EU, to name but two. China, too.
As many are pointing out, tariffs reduce trade, because they make imported goods (and/or services) more expensive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff.
Looked at from a different point of view, there are reasons why Trump’s tariff barriers might be positive for the USA, mainly because they might allow American industry, in decline for half a century, to revive.
“The tariff has been used as a political tool to establish an independent nation; for example, the United States Tariff Act of 1789, signed specifically on July 4, was called the “Second Declaration of Independence” by newspapers because it was intended to be the economic means to achieve the political goal of a sovereign and independent United States.[93]“
[Wikipedia].
In the short-term, Trump’s tariff’s may well cause domestic prices (within the USA) to inflate. In the longer-term, however, those tariffs may also create American jobs, and also increase America’s long-term security.
The USA is one of the few economies capable of being an autarky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autarky]. Others would be Russia and mainland Europe (the EU, presently).
There is little doubt, though, that in those countries that produce items exported to the USA, the Trump tariffs will cause economic damage, possibly severe damage. That in turn will cause political fallout.
The USA is a huge and vibrant economy. If turned inward, that may be able to create the prosperity and job security so lacking at present in many American communities. The USA should have been isolationist in the 1940s and afterwards, as it had been in the 1930s. It seems to me that that would be a good policy now for the USA. Economic isolationism allied to political isolationism.
The USA should build up purely defensive military and naval power, but avoid doing what it has done, particularly, since 1941, i.e. interfere all over the world. If that is done, American security will thereby be increased.
