The fool stands where he\u2019s told to<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

6 March 2025 ~ UK Zelensky Tour is a Charity Gala Performance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having watched the spat in the White House recently, where Trump missed the opportunity to stick one on a man widely regarded as the world\u2019s biggest scrounger but couldn\u2019t really do such a thing whilst he was talking peace, I predicted that when the Great Z rolled into Britain, the Disunited Kingdom under the worst government since Noddy Blaire would really show us up. I hoped that this humiliation would not go further than a cuddle or two with Starmer, as cringing as that was, but no, we had to go the whole hog: a propagandist photoshoot with the King of England taking tea in the totally incompatible company of a T-shirt wearing erstwhile actor looking less like the person he is purported to be and more like one of those things ~ though considerably less well dressed ~ that keep rolling into Britain on the back of a rubber dinghy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Taking<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In a show of absolute disregard for the declining prosperity of the UK and as an insult to the intelligence of its populace (did I say intelligence?), its Davos-orchestrated media flooded airwaves, newspapers and the internet with a fulsome display of stage-managed rejoicing. With a single flick of the media switch almost every Brit in Hatebook land was once again changing their avatars and standing with Ukraine. Not that this has any significance, they would stand in a bucket of shit if\u00a0that was where they were told to stand. Snap! Snap! went the whip: the Zelensky circus was back in town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"UK<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Even in these cash-strapped times, when the majority of Brits and even some migrants, but not the ones in 5-star hotels, cannot afford to heat their homes, Mr Starmer\u2019s government, or rather the forces that control it, is pledging to donate an additional \u00a32.26 billion to a conflict which the West should never have provoked and, as Trump is at pains to point out, if not soon brought to a halt could plausibly precipitate World War III.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In jingoistic and sanctimonious language reminiscent of that which, let\u2019s hope not prophetically, heralded the dawn of the First World War, on the 1 March 2025 (it could be a day that will live in infamy), the UK Government issued this self-congratulatory statement, clearly intended to justify its phenomenal overspending folly whilst proclaiming itself to be the saviour of national security and the champion of democracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rachel Reeves, christened by Katie Hopkins as \u2018the woman with the Lego hairstyle\u2019, and some other bod with a name that I cannot pronounce (whatever happened to Smith and Jones?), were poised to sign the grandiloquently titled Ukraine Bilateral Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cutting through prose that reads like an extract from a classic Dad\u2019s Army<\/em> script (I mean, just look at it! I ask you!), the best of British from the worst of people is impressive but meretricious:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA safe and secure Ukraine is a safe and secure United Kingdom. This funding will bolster Ukraine\u2019s armed forces and will put Ukraine in the strongest possible position at a critical juncture in the war. [Fanfare of heraldic trumpets!!!]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt comes as we have increased our defence spending to 2.5% of GDP, which will deliver the stability required to keep us safe and underpin economic growth.\u201d ~ said Lego<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What this bilateral agreement means is that instead of going for peace, Britain is going for broke. In order to keep the Zelensky show on the road and perpetuate the hostilities in Ukraine at any price, and that includes the cost in human terms, the UK Government is now pledging a whopping great \u00a32.26 billion \u2018loan\u2019 on top of the \u00a33 billion it already throws away each year (that\u2019s where your tax money\u2019s going) for Ukraine to spend on bombs and bullets. That\u2019s an awful lot of money to give to a man with no dress sense; let\u2019s hope he uses some of it to buy himself a suit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"I<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

[Quote:] \u201cThe Prime Minister has been clear that a strong Ukraine is vital to UK national security.\u201d [Unquote].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How and also Why? After that statement from the PM, even those who didn\u2019t regard him as a bit of a prat, because their fathers have always voted Labour, may hopefully have a change of heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving on swiftly from this stupendous tax on the UK\u2019s coffers at a time when we can least afford it, the government statement is keen to head up the recently announced, but for some lefties controversial, increase in the UK defence budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2026 to 2.5% of GDP by 2027, with an ambition to spend 3% of GDP on defence in the next parliament as economic and fiscal conditions allow.\u201d ~ notice the qualification. Hand over your piggy banks, kids! Tax! Tax! Tax!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s just pause for one brief moment and think this document through. Doesn\u2019t it strike you as odd that a government, indeed successive UK governments, who do not give a flying fart about destroying the country they represent by endorsing and encouraging the immigrant invasion, should so solemnly be concerned with and so unswervingly devoted to the sovereignty of a country, I refer, of course, to Ukraine, which until social media exhorted Britain\u2019s Arsebook sheep to change their pretty avatars, not one man Jack of them, or dinghy-arriving Abdul, knew Ukraine existed. According to popular rumour, neither did Liz Truss. Liz who? Allow me to jog your memory: She entered Number 10 like a queen and vanished like a magician\u2019s assistant through the back of a magic box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trussed-up-like-a-Turkey had no idea where Ukraine is and, let\u2019s be frank and honest, neither do 90 per cent of avatar-changing Brits. \u201cDuh, let\u2019s change our avatars. You click \u2018Like\u2019, I\u2019ll click \u2018Like\u2019, we\u2019ll all click \u2018Like\u2019 together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Brits<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Giving billions of pounds a year to Mr Zelensky\u2019s T-shirt fund has nothing to do with UK national security. We compromised that years ago when we opened the migrant floodgates, and what little we have left of it is being trampled underfoot by thousands of happy migrant feet that are wearing the welcome mat threadbare as our politically correct two-tier coppers bus them off to plush hotels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real threat in the UK to every man, woman and child and thus to national security is the one that nobody, except Reform, is willing to confront: catastrophic immigration. Thousands, literally thousands, of young men of fighting age, migrants from the third world, are languishing at the taxpayers\u2019 expense in hotels and hostels up and down the country. Thanks to the loony left, bolstered by Brownshirt organisations that masquerade as equality heroes ~ who mentioned Antifa and Hope Not Hate? ~ but which are really infested with anarchists, hardly any of these aliens will be sent packing to whence they originally came.\u00a0Hundreds of thousands of these lovely items are poised to be unleashed onto the wretched streets of Britain, ushering in a dark new age where holding hands and candle-lit vigils, already a British tradition, is steadily replacing all that our forbears worked for and all that they believed in: \u201cGet your candle-lit vigil kits here!\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, I could be wrong. The experiences of the past few years may be nothing at all to go by. They may simply want to hold hands with us and, like the Coke advert of old, sing in ‘Happy Harmony’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a further demonstration of liberal social media\u2019s stranglehold on UK freedom of speech, Facebook, aka Hatebook, is quick to delete all and any comments that do not align themselves with the West\u2019s \u2018I stand with Ukraine\u2019 narrative. The comments of attackers and haters are preserved in liberal vinegar; the comments of all who challenge them are swiftly siphoned away.

Two sides of the jolly old argument, ay chaps.
\u201cIt is essential for democracy to listen to what other people are saying (Goodin, 2003<\/a>).\u201d<\/strong>

The Russian point of view:<\/span><\/strong>
\u201cWe continue to operate on the premise that a truly just and durable peace is not possible unless the root causes of the Ukraine crisis are completely eliminated. The main ones among them include the West breaking its promises not to expand NATO and the alliance\u2019s absorption of Europe\u2019s entire geopolitical space all the way up to Russia\u2019s borders, as well as the Kiev regime\u2019s systematic elimination of everything Russian, including language, culture, and church, just like the German Nazis did in the past. The demilitarisation and denazification of Ukraine, as well as recognition of existing realities on the ground remain Russia\u2019s unchanged objectives. The sooner Kiev and the European capitals in question come to realise this, the closer to a peaceful settlement of the Ukraine crisis we will be.\u201d <\/strong>~ Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova\u2019s comment on Vladimir Zelensky\u2019s voyage to Washington, D.C., 1 March 2025

Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova\u2019s comment on Vladimir Zelensky\u2019s voyage to Washington, D.C. – The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea that the Western World’s survival hinges upon propping up the ultranational regime of Ukraine is a feebly spurious and egregious premise. The West\u2019s proxy war with Russia has failed, so why continue the virtue signalling by showering Zelensky with false praise and filling the bottomless pit of his unaudited war chest. Bankrolling Zelensky is nothing more than a face-saving exercise, an immoral funding of loss of life destined to ensure that Ukraine ends up like a lunar landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of hoodwinking gullible Brits with jingoistic soundbites and huggy huggy Zelensky time ~ quick, let\u2019s change our avatars ~   a responsible, grown-up government, if only we had such a thing, would admit that national security is a net-zero migration issue and would be doing all that it could to slam the porous borders shut and combat the hostile hoards that are already within our midst. After all, it is they that shipped them in; the indigenous British people never went online and ordered them from Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UK Zelensky Tour is a Charity Gala Performance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The only real potential threat that Britain faces today to its national security, indeed to its very existence, is the Trojan Horse of third-world migration. It is here, now; here and happening. An insidious ticking timebomb waiting to explode. All talk of old-style threats, of invasions from abroad, are as convincing as telling a country bumpkin that if he pisses against the wind the world will be a better place. The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming! What would they want to come here for? Such megaphonic announcements are opium for the bewildered masses, many of whom are yet to wake up to the terrible state that Britain is in. Please, pass me one of their sleeping pills!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tales from 21st century Britain<\/strong>
> Brits Told to be Vigilant as Boats Roll in on Tide of Terror<\/a>
> UK Anti-Immigration Riots Herald New Dystopian Era<\/a>
> Lies and Democracy: Are they now the same thing?<\/a>
> Tracking World Vaccination with the Prickometer<\/a>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only positive thing to come out of Britain throwing its money away and the avatar-changing farce is that Trump by word and deed has been unequivocally vindicated. By advocating a path for peace, he has already proved to the world that contrary to the deriding image that mainstream media painted of him during his first term in office, the crazed war monger never was him; it was, and always has been, the backsliding liberal left. Biden was a stooge; Obama was a black bum sitting on a fence, though they claim he played good golf; Trump, though not a peaceful man ~ he is not a lefty wimp or a wokist pushover ~ is a man who believes in peace. The clamouring desire for war, for never-ending, relentless war is an obsession exclusively liberal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, Trump\u2019s defiant stand for peace contrasts strongly in his favour against the liberal craving for war, which reverberates hysterically on both sides of the Atlantic. If you couldn\u2019t see it before Trump’s sincere endeavours for peace, your vison should now be clearing. The real war mongers of the West are the pseudo-liberal cabal, the elitist globalist clan, who hide behind tired old slogans that project them as the patron saints of democracy and humanity but really who are perfectly willing to spill the blood of others in their relentless pursuit of hegemony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the goons who want you to \u2018Stand with Ukraine\u2019, or rather the last thing that they want to happen is for Trump to broker a peace plan. They do not want peace full-stop, especially peace by a peace-making Trump, as this will only cement his glory, expose them for what they are, and spur him onto greater things, none of which they have no doubt will be in their globalist interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Standing for Ukraine, as defined by British policy, means perpetuating warfare, which, as Trump has laid on the line, could edge us closer to World War III.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UK Zelensky Tour is a Charity Gala Performance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If war does break out in Europe, and let\u2019s fervently hope this day will never dawn, it will surprise an awful lot of idiots who repeatedly spout the mantra that nuclear war will not effect us, as the UK has its own deterrent. This might be an appropriate juncture to remind the lefty lot that it was not so long ago that they wanted to scrap our nuclear deterrent and use the money instead for welfare handouts and to fund migration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Britain's<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sing along now: ‘We can’t all live in a yellow submarine …’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our politicians, whose only skill seems to lie in their remarkable ability to never tell the truth, should nevertheless make it abundantly clear to the obfuscated British public, particularly those who \u2018Stand by Ukraine\u2019, that the first casualty of a war that goes nuclear will be the United Kingdom. In the first seconds of a nuclear war, our little, bitty, titchy island and all who reside upon it will unfortunately but effectively be evaporated. There\u2019s not enough room on our two nuclear subs for Britain\u2019s ever-increasing migrant army, let alone the rest of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The West breaking its promises not to expand NATO and the alliance\u2019s absorption of Europe\u2019s entire geopolitical space <\/strong>…

The Cuban Missile Crisis ~ a lesson from history<\/mark>
<\/strong>In May 1962, the Soviet Union began shipping missiles and technicians to Cuba. The yanks were none too pleased about this. It was the closest brush with World War III since the end of World War II.

The irresponsible to the extent of insane notion to billet NATO missile bases in Ukraine capable of carrying  nuclear payloads within easy reach of Moscow is comparable to Russia siting missile bases on the Isle of Man. You just don\u2019t do it, do you? \"\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forget about the government (Oh, you already have!), forget about Ukraine (You can’t! You’ve gone and changed your avatars!), what we need, and urgently, is a bomb-disposable expert, one who will leave other countries to manage their own affairs and who will focus his mind exclusively on dismantling the clear and present threat of Britain’s Migrant Doomsday Bomb. <\/p>\n\n\n

\"Migrant<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Do I stand with Ukraine? No! I stand for Trump and peace. The rationale of my thinking being that it is hard to stand almost anywhere in a pair of smouldering boots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
