Hopes Aren’t ‘Stratospheric’, They Are Unreasonable And Unachievable

The Green party members in Bournemouth at the weekend were, largely, exuberant. More than one person I spoke to used the word “joyful”. “The energy is amazing,” said Jean Lambert, the former London MEP. “It’s exceeded my expectations,” said the new leader, Zack Polanski. “Even the most unfriendly journalist can’t find anyone that isn’t fired up and ready to go.”

The fawning over this snakeoil salesman - dubbed 'Hypnotits' on Twitter -  has been astonishing to see. If they'd had social media accounts back in 1978 in Guyana when Jim Jones was getting his Messiah shtick on, it'd have looked a lot like this. 

Can't help but wonder if it's going to end up as disastrously.

Polanski himself contributed to this feeling. He has a talent for expressing members’ views clearly and without fearing how the rightwing press might respond.

Where once there was a nervousness about defending controversial but internally popular policies such as drug decriminalisation or denouncing Israeli “apartheid”, the party has now abandoned this caution – and members love it.

Yes, no doubt nutters applaud policy statements from those even madder than they are! 

Partly, it comes from the feeling of moving in the right direction in other ways, too. Many members have long been concerned about the party being overly white. While that’s still true, there were, as party chief executive, Harriet Lamb, said to me, “more global majority Greens at this conference than ever before”.

‘We’ve attracted even more loons this year, go us!’ 

What’s also important is that, for many members, the last few annual conferences have been – as more than one person said – “horrible”, marred by transphobic behaviour.

Translation: Psople who don’t believe men can become women simply by claiming that’s what they are. 

But, mostly, the party was focused on steering activist energy into winning new seats: it’s now confident of getting at least one Welsh Senedd member in May, and aiming for two. London’s local elections will be a big focus. And it’s hoping to win mayoralties in Hackney, Norfolk and Suffolk, and Sussex and Brighton – in the latter two, against Reform – in the latter, Millward herself is the candidate.

It remains to be seen whether enough people have come to their senses by then. As the old Chinese curse puts it, we sure are living in interesting times. 

The risk now for Polanski is that expectations are stratospheric.

Not the word I'd have chosen... 

This Aston Villa-Maccabi thing

Going to run our boys' comments first, then get to the sshots, ok?

Penseivat from yesterday:

A possible solution to the Aston Villa v Maccabi Tel Aviv problem, is to ban everyone from going, apart from a few tv cameras. Let them play in an empty stadium. If the AV supporters complain, and they will, they should be directed to the local mosques, for starting the threats to the TA supporters.

Andy (Villa supporter) from yesterday:

I am a fan of Villa and have given some thought to this. Not having a dog in the race I can’t side with either combatant in the conflict, both guilty in my mind. Any danger to public safety is likely to come from the rent-a-mob crowd. My hope would be that if the Maccabi supporters are permitted and face violence from the usual suspects that the Villa s would form a cordon and protect the away fans. Either way this is a shameful decision by the Safety Advisory Group.

Right ... my own view is heavily swayed by this gutless clown, the CC:

My position is that I'm firstly this ✝️ as the west traditionally was underpinned by after the "dark ages" but if we're talking nations, then primarily Cross of St George and Union Flag, with friendships in the other home countries, plus Ireland (Cork), plus the US, Canada, downunder, France, Russia, other eastern European nations, Italy, other Christian nations.

I believe that within your nation, you fly your country's flag only ... that's my bottom line. In the US, I'd support MAGA, in Germany AfD, in the Netherlands - whatever Eva supported, in Canada Sarah and Alberta ... and so it goes on.

And now various views from X:

Lastly, my own view on the match is call it off, on principle.  If it goes ahead, then the civil war starts and that's another story.

The main purposes of this "random" stabbing in Melbourne

I had something on the Aston Villa situation and Jewish people ... apart from decrying such politics in sport, wanting sport rid of this, there wasn't much else to add to the topic which hasn't been already said.

Penseivat did have a suggestion:

I'll be addressing that and the ludicrous sight of the Chief Constable appeaser tomorrow morning here at Orphans.

Meanwhile, there was a situation downunder which came up which many in Ozland are up in arms about ... another senseless killing ... "senseless" until one realises just how much sense it makes to those in the darkest hidden recesses of the cabal dens.

Let's open with a quote by a lady from San Diego in October 2000, a quarter of a century ago. It was in a radio interview in Toronto ... they'd been having much child abuse trouble, ritual slayings, there was the conviction of Ewen Cameron and down in NZ ... Selwyn Leeks for the same thing.

She said, Svali:

These are NOT nice people and they use and manipulate others viciously. They cut their eye teeth on status, power, and money. I have given all of that up to leave, and am glad to be away from it now, although I do miss some of my friends, and at times I miss the respect of being a leader. But I am learning to live a whole new life without the constant background of "family" monitoring and telling me what to do.

It's the old story of perpetual killings, maimings, torture, pleb on pleb, in order to keep the heat off Them, themselves.  My lasting image of Covid was of us being refused permission to go here or there unvaxxed, lockdowns, the whole disgraceful behaviour of "those above", plus Karens everywhere thinking only me-me-me, plus standing on ridiculous spots in supermarkets, six feet from anyone else.

Actually no ... my abiding memory was more a picture some days ago now, onX but from the Covid time, of Boris quaffing champas from the bottle at a party while the plebs were all locked down. Plus the clapping seals outside houses at 8 p.m. for the dancing nurses in near empty wards, yet nightingale hospitals being hurriedly prefabbed.  Plus Plod in battle gear harassing a mum and two daughters on a beach.

So ... to get to this killing in Melbourne's CBD (central business district), Craig Kelly is the downunder version of the Spectator, Dan Wooton, Patrick Christys, GB News ... a Rupert Lowe type, what Reform should be like downunder:

JACINTA ALLAN MUST RESIGN She tried to cover up the video of the latest Melbourne stabbing, and now she is lying about it. That cover-up—for political reasons to benefit Jacinta Allan—both obstructed justice and put Victorians at risk. The stabbing occurred at 7:40 a.m. on October 2. The video clearly identified the offender. By releasing the video, members of the public could have identified the stabber and assisted police in locating this individual. Every second that the video was delayed in being publicly released put the Victorian public at risk—who knows who else could have been stabbed in the minutes or hours before this person was tracked down and arrested? Jacinta Allan is lying about the reason the video was censored from the public: she claims the cover-up & censorship was because she didn’t want to "obstruct justice" However her claim about not wanting to "obstruct justice" doesn’t stack up - because the stabber appeared before a Melbourne Magistrates Court back on October 3. The public were put at risk because of the cover-up, and now Jacinta Allan is lying about the cover-up and censorship. Justice was obstructed (for political reason to benefit Jacinta Allan) by her covering up the video of the crime. Her position is untenable. She has to resign.

What sort of a bint is this Dunning-Kruger in charge of a key state ... same thing one can ask about US governors and mayors, plus Paris, France.  Another feisty pundit downunder, ex Spectator until kicked off, same politics as many of us, is Alexandra Marshall:

Sound familiar, Manchester?  Or Iryna's ghost in NYC?  The difference between the Manchurian Candidates of old and these ones now is that they were sent out to do the killing as required but now, they roam randomly and in this case, it was a troon nutter murdering an Asian ... get that war going asap please.

I'm now going to describe Bourke Street and why Victorians are so appalled.  The Melbourne CBD is The City here, in London, a grid right in the middle of town, as safe as houses ... all major malls, fashion houses, restaurants, cafes, the bustling, moneyed centre of town. I never went there much, last time was maybe early 2000s.

Let me describe the layout of the CBD as succinctly as I can:

Bourke Street is the middle, long, crossways street and you'll notice the road itself stops and resumes again two blocks over.  Near the right hand end is Melbourne's very old Chinatown ... and this stabbed lady was Asian, selected by the nutter.

There's an expression "as busy as Bourke Street" down there ... that mall where the stabbing took place is the very centre of Victorian public life ... major dept stores etc.  so this was a white troon stabbing an Asian, telling her to get the hell out of their land.

Except we, of our politics, don't murder, we tweet, vlog and blog, outraged ... troons and deathculters stab, antifa and other leftists attack rather than CK talk.

The second purpose, of course, for Them, is to create fear and hiding away. From rape gang girls to women's safety to anyone's life really ... even in the very centre of civic life ... fear and loathing. 7:40 a.m. on Thursday, Oct 2, working day, just before rush hour, peak hour, in the very place thousands would soon be visiting on their way to work and cafe breakfasts ... you get the idea.

The third purpose for Them and clown world is to distract, detour away from the nefarious things they're doing or are about to do in secret ... everyone looks at this stabbing, no one is looking at the govt at that time.

There's going to be more on Them over at UHC-HQ later in the day.

Everywhere, The Left Reached Too Far And Pushed Too Hard…

...as they always do, given a sniff of power:

Its recent success is no longer a story of just male voters, either: 20% of young women say they would vote for Vox, with the biggest increase among the youngest voters in that group.

What's the attraction? Could it be their policies, which include:

...the mass expulsion of immigrants in order to preserve “Spanish identity”, the restriction of abortion, end-of-life and trans rights, the dismantling of the European Union’s institutions and the rejection of policies to tackle the climate crisis...?

All of those, but especially restriction of immigrants and restriction on 'trans rights' ( which itself is coded language for allowing disturbed men into female spaces) likely to resonate with women more than men.

Amid all the hand-wringing in Spain about the latest far-right insurgency, one thing is clear: the solution is not going to be found by moving the political centre of gravity rightward.

'No, onwards with the Left wing policies, no surrender!' That seems very unlike a winning strategy to me, Maria. 

What else can the mainstream political class do – particularly on the left, which traditionally counted on the support of progressive young adults?

To what do you attribute this surge of right wing enthusiasm, anyway?  Well, would you believe, Reader, it's all down to squabbling politicians? 

Yet it is now hard to find a politician from either of the two largest parties in national and regional government – those who bear the greatest responsibility – willing to pause before attacking a rival, even when the facts are still unclear.

Yes, that's the attitude of socialists - 'don't let the proles see mummy and daddy fighting, ir upsets them' 

Parties in Spain are notoriously hard to change. But we’ve seen it done before. Pedro Sánchez enacted change within his own party, and progressive new parties managed to break bipartisanship and (briefly) seemed poised to define the future.

And the young saw the future the Left were describing and said 'no thanks!' en masse.  

Hastings 1066 ... not a good day for the English

Quick word to Orphans readers ... Julia's next is down for tomorrow morning ... I was going to run the 4Chan issue which comes to a head soon with Starmer's online safety bint ... we're assuming readers will just go VPN ... plus 4Chan have not the slightest intention of paying a UK imposed fine.

Meanwhile, today, this is two days late I'm afraid.  This is from The English Remnant Trad England, on X:

"The Silvatici were the last Anglo-Saxon freedom fighters who refused to submit to Norman rule after 1066. The name comes from the Latin silvaticus, meaning “of the woods” - the Normans’ way of describing the English who retreated into forests and wild country to continue the fight. After the Battle of Hastings, William the Conqueror seized the throne, but many Englishmen would not yield. They took to the forests, hills, and fens - living rough, striking from the shadows, and vanishing into the wild. These men were the Silvatici - forest-dwellers and outlaws, but patriots in the truest sense. They came from all walks of English society: dispossessed thegns, soldiers, and common men who would not swear loyalty to a foreign king. They saw themselves as the last defenders of their land, law, and blood. Eadric the Wild (Eadric Silvaticus) was a proud Anglo-Saxon noble from the borderlands whose resistance began soon after Hastings. He led raids on Norman outposts and fought fiercely for years, earning his name as a man of the woods. Hereward the Wake, the best-known of the Silvatici, led the resistance based around Ely. He and his followers turned the marshes and forests into a fortress, waging guerrilla war against the Normans long after others had surrendered. The Silvatici fought with ambushes, sudden attacks, and sabotage. They struck quickly at Norman garrisons, tax convoys, and collaborators, disappearing again into the woods. They lived off the land, using England’s forests and fens as their shield - sleeping under trees, eating what they could hunt, and surviving on courage, cunning, and loyalty to their kin. By the early 1070s, Norman rule had crushed most open rebellion. Yet the Silvatici lived on in English memory - the last free men of England, who chose hardship over submission. Their defiance became the seed of the later English outlaw tradition: men who lived in the greenwood and resisted tyranny. They were not mere bandits, but warriors of the old Anglo-Saxon realm - the wild men of the woods who kept England’s spirit alive when its crown had been taken. Though their names faded from record, the Silvatici embodied the unbroken will of the English - free men who would rather live wild in their own land than kneel to a foreign crown. Their spirit still whispers through England’s woods, where freedom once took refuge among the trees. There blood is in our veins."

Our Steve, across the way at Unherdables, also wrote:

"Not a good day for Harold – not a good day for England either. The bloodshed did not stop with the Battle of Hastings..

“I have persecuted the natives of England beyond all reason. Whether gentle or simple I have cruelly oppressed them; many I unjustly disinherited; innumerable multitudes perished through me by famine or the sword…I fell on the English of the northern shires like a ravening lion. I commanded their houses and corn, with all their implements and chattels, to be burnt without distinction, and great herds of cattle and beasts of burden to be butchered whenever they are found. In this way I took revenge on multitudes of both sexes by subjecting them to the calamity of a cruel famine, and so became a barbarous murderer of many thousands, both young and old, of that fine race of people. Having gained the throne of that kingdom by so many crimes I dare not leave it to anyone but God."

– William’s death bed confession according to Ordericus Vitalis AD 1130."

Something to bear in mind as we face the greatest threat since Gitler, certainly Napoleon. And still around a half of us are oblivious the the extant threat, called haters and far right, instead of steadfast and loyal.

Opening salvo in this digital ID bollox

Just saw this on X as an early example of govt putting every citizen under complete control ... the "free" enterprise world:

Got Anything To Say Now, Sarah?

 An attempt to set a mosque alight, caught on security camera, brought out all the empty-headed virtue signallers, like the local MP:

However, it now transpires the mosque was in debt to the tune of £260K and so rumours are spiralling that this was an insurance job. Not helped by the fact cops have so far arrested and bailed five people who they are refusing to name. Why is yhis significant? Well....

Meanwhile in Kettering, another 'far right arson atrocity' turns out to be another false flag.

A 43-year-old man charged with an attempted arson attack on a mosque owned by Kettering Muslim Association has appeared in court. Yesterday, (Tuesday, October 7) Arif Ali Rafiq of Harlestone Road, Northampton, appeared at Northampton Magistrates Court.In line with new guidance, Mr Rafiq’s ethnicity was given out by Northants Police as a ‘British-born Asian man’.

The fear of a 'far right backlash' is heralded by the useful idiots as always just on the cusp of arriving, like a bus. And when it gets here, it turns out to be a milk float rather than a bus. 

The issue of faux accounts and bad players

By faux accounts, I mean they’re not who they say … Elon, his mother, son, Barron, Rubio, Vivek. In some cases, it’s not hostile, it can just be to get money from you but as Wendy said … it can be to steal digital wallets.

They CAN Be Quick When They Want To...

 A constant complaint of police accounts on Twitter is that the IOPC take ages to reach a conclusion, and the pressure this puts officers under, in some cases leading to suicide. 

Well, not always:

Police officers who accidentally shot and killed a cancer survivor in the Manchester synagogue attack will face no charges of misconduct. Adrian Daulby, 53, was hit by a stray bullet at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Crumpsall last Thursday morning. He was among those bravely attempting to keep the doors of the worship centre closed during Syrian-born Jihad Al-Shamie's, 35, deadly rampage.

My, that was a speedy investigation, wasn't it, Reader? Am I the only one to find it suspiciously quick?. 

The police conduct investigation looked into the injuries of two men, both inside the synagogue at the time, who appeared to have been injured when officers fired their weapons.Welcoming the IOPC's finding, Sir Stephen Watson, Chief Constable, Greater Manchester Police said the force had been 'inundated with messages of thanks and support for the actions that our brave officers took to prevent further harm to our Jewish community'.

They killed the same number of people as the terrorist. Just think on that.

Sir Stephen pledged to work with the IOPC on previous complaints of rape and harassment it has received against Al-Shamie. The IOPC said its finding would remain 'under review' as its investigation continues.

Welcome to Britain, were an allegation of rape sees you given bail, while the really dangerous suspected criminals are banged up on remand! 

Oh, and they didn't just shoot one innocent person - they shot two, and it's pure luck he wasn't killed too.

Another man, Yoni Finlay was also reportedly shot while trying to barricade the door, according to his family. The 35-year-old was hit in the chest and is now recovering after having undergone major surgery last night, his 15-year-old son, Uriel, said. Speaking to ITV News, the teenager - who was at home asleep during the terror attack - said: 'I spoke to Rabbi Walker, he told me that he and my dad barricaded the doors with a couple of other people and, in the process of the armed police shooting the terrorist, one of the bullets hit my dad in the chest 

'He was shot accidentally by a bullet that went through the door.'

That 'when seconds count, the police are minute away' can be put into perspective now...as can the assurances that they are 'highly trained and competent professional marksmen'

The tweeter who put this below up on X I'll have to go searching for to attribute. Just grabbed the text on the run and here it is, from Enoch P, way back when.
