According to that ever reliable source of information – Wikipedia – the ‘Black and Tans’ were constables recruited into the Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC) as reinforcements during the Irish War of Independence. Recruitment began in Great Britain in January 1920, and about 10,000 men enlisted during the conflict. The nickname “Black and Tans” arose from the colours of the improvised uniforms they initially wore, a mixture of dark green RIC (which appeared black) and khaki British Army.
But now there is a new version of the ‘Blacks and Tans’. I have written before about an Irish Government plan titled Ireland Project 2040. One of the main goals of this plan is to increase the population of the Republic of Ireland by over one million.
The Irish birth rate is around 1.9 children per woman down from four per woman in the 1960s and 1970s. The UK is at 1.8. But replacement level is 2.1 children per woman. The indigenous Irish population is actually declining.
So, where will the extra more than one million people come from? Clearly through immigration from Africa, Asia and the Middle East. That’s 50,000 a year for the 21 years from 2019 to 2040 – about 1,000 a week. That’s where the new ‘Blacks’ and ‘Tans’ will come from.
Now, in case you think I’m exaggerating the threat to the indigenous white Irish population, here’s a chart from the excellent Visual Capitalist website showing the percentage growth in population by country from 1990 to 2023:
You’ll see that, despite a birth rate below replacement level, Ireland with +48% has the highest percentage increase of any Western European country.
Here’s a chart of Ireland’s population from 1950 to 2023:
It won’t be long before the only faces you’ll see in Ireland will be Blacks and Tans.
As for other West European countries where the white indigenous population is declining, with Switzerland’s population increasing by 32%, Spain’s by 23%, Norway’s by 30%, Sweden’s by 23%, the UK’s by 20%, the Netherlands’ by 20% and France’s by 17%, it would seem that the Great Replacement may be more than an absurd conspiracy theory.
Why don’t they ban all travel from Africa?
Monkeypox, or mpox, has been declared a global health emergency after it began spreading rapidly across central Africa and popping up around the world – including a case in Europe.
Mpox has been known about for years and while a concern to the World Health Organization (WHO) it has never been widespread. But in a recent explosion of cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo, alongside changing symptoms has caused alarm for medical professionals.
On Thursday, multi-cultural, diverse and vibrant Sweden recorded its first case of mpox – the first confirmed case in Europe.
So far, more than 96% of all cases and deaths are in DR Congo. Scientists are concerned about the spread of a new version of the disease that might be more easily transmitted among people.
But if the World Health Organisation was really concerned about our health, surely they would insist on a ban on all travel from Africa? But I guess they won’t as that would be ‘racist’.
I wasn’t intending to watch the BBC Panorama programme about Nottingham knife murderer Valdo Calocane. But eventually I did watch it with steadily rising disgust. I have to be careful what I write because of possible legal repercussions. But hopefully we’re still allowed to give our own opinions in the brief few weeks left before the (IMHO) UK-hating, Davos-adoring Two-Tier Keir bans any form of free speech with his new ludicrously misnamed ‘Online Safety Bill’.
It does seem that there were flaws in the way that murderer – or perhaps we should call him “manslaughterer” as he was only convicted of something like ‘manslaughter due to diminished responsibility’ and not ‘murder’ – was treated by the mental health services. And since the Panorama programme there has been a mainstream media pile-on attacking the uselessness of our NHS mental health services with many commentators claiming the NHS mental services staff “have blood on their hands”. But I didn’t see any sign of anyone daring to suggest that Valdo Calocane’s family might also bear some responsibility for this (IMHO) monster’s killings, that this (IMHO) evil creature’s family might “have blood on their hands”. Nope. It was all our fault because we didn’t give him the treatment he needed. His family, who produced this (IMHO) vile specimen, were all apparently angels and we British taxpayers were apparently the villains.
I guess this is just another sign of the times where nobody takes responsibility for anything any more and nobody is expected to take responsibility for anything any more. Everything is now the fault of ‘the system’ or ‘society’ or some other such nonsense.
First I should make it clear that I am in no way trying to stir up any form of discrimination, social unrest or violence. Why would I need to when the (IMHO) fake Conservatives and (IMHO) stalinist, free-speech-loathing Labour are already doing a tremendous job destroying what little is left of British values and British culture? So they hardly need my help.
Where Ireland leads
I have previously written about the Irish Government’s “Project Ireland 2040”:
This is a plan to increase the Republic of Ireland’s population from its current 4.8 million to 5.8 million by 2040. The Irish birth rate is around 1.9 children per woman down from 4 children per woman in the 1960s and 1970s. The UK is at 1.8. But replacement level is 2.1 children per woman. The indigenous Irish population is actually declining. Assuming the native Irish population continues to decline, “Project Ireland 2040” means importing more than a million migrants. Of the 5.8 million people who (the Irish government predicts) will be living in Ireland by 2040, around 1.8 million – almost one in three ‘Irish’ – will be an immigrant, mostly from Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
I haven’t crunched the numbers, but I suspect that by around 2070 the Irish will be a minority in their own country.
It’s not clear to an unwashed, ignorant pleb like myself if this is something the Irish enthusiastically voted for.
Britain seems to be following
That brings us to a more relevant issue – when are our rulers planning to make White British a minority in their country?
The population of the UK is constantly increasing:
Since 2001, the foreign-born share of the population has doubled to about nine million. Given that birth rates for ethnic White British are below replacement level, all the population growth has come from immigration. Meanwhile, the number of those from an ethnic minority background has more than doubled to over 13 million; their share of the population rising from 10% to 21%:
This, of course, means that White British as a share of the total population of Great Britain has declined by ten percentage points – from 89% in 2001 to 79%:
Just over one third of all births now involve at least one foreign born parent and one in three pupils in English state-funded schools are from an ethnic minority background. Furthermore, the share of the population of other ethnic backgrounds is already much larger amongst younger people than in the wider population.
(Dear Mr Starmer, Ms Cooper and Mr Rowley, please note that all these figures and charts come from information provided by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). So, if you want to arrest someone for some trumped up non-crime, go and arrest the bosses at the ONS)
Some recent academic projections have estimated that by 2061, White British will make up somewhere between 54% and 65% of the UK’s population. As with the Irish situation, I haven’t crunched the numbers. But if current levels of immigration continue (and it looks like they will under migrant-loving Labour), White British birth rates continue to decline and migrant birth rates exceed replacement level, then by around 2070, White British will be a minority in their own country.
Now we’ve seen how our new socialist/stalinist PM Keir ‘Two-Tier’ Starmer intends to deal with anyone who disagrees with his policies – jail the messenger, ignore the message. As Starmer let his thuggish, take-the-knee to those-who-hate-us police (aka ‘uniformed Starmtroopers’) loose on furious white British, mainly working class, anti-immigration protestors he and his authoritarian socialist, globalist chums in politics and our supine mainstream media lashed out at anyone daring to suggest that the protestors might have a valid reason for protesting – Tommy Robinson, Nigel Farage, Elon Musk, social media and many others were blamed for the unrest. But Starmer made no mention of uncontrolled, open-borders immigration or of illegal migrants being put up in hotels with three meals a day, free mobile phones, new credit cards and £49 a week spending money while British people were homeless and while pensioners were losing their winter fuel payments. Nor did he mention our society being wrecked by a mass influx of illegal migrants many of whom will have torn up their identity papers so we don’t know how old they are, where they come from or whether they have a history of violence and criminality.
Part of socialist Starmer’s response to the protests has been an all-out attack on free speech. The Director of Public Prosecutions of England and Wales, Stephen Parkinson, warned against “publishing or distributing material which is insulting or abusive which is intended to or likely to start racial hatred. So, if you retweet that, then you’re republishing that and then potentially you’re committing that offence [incitement to racial hatred]”.
He added further, “We do have dedicated police officers who are scouring social media. Their job is to look for this material, and then follow up with identification, arrests, and so forth. So it’s very, very serious. People might think they’re not doing anything harmful. They are. And the consequences will be visited upon them.”
I seem to remember from my school history lessons that during the French Revolution the Law of Suspects, passed on 17 September 1793, empowered local revolutionary committees to arrest “those who by their conduct, relations or language spoken or written, have shown themselves partisans of tyranny or federalism and enemies of liberty.” In 1793–94 well over 200,000 citizens were detained under this law; though most of them never stood trial, they languished in pestiferous jails, where an estimated 10,000 perished. About 17,000 death sentences were handed down by the military commissions and revolutionary tribunals of the Terror. ‘Plus ça change’.
The 3 words that the French Revolution stood for were “Liberty, equality, fraternity”.
The Revolution that ‘Sir’ Keir and his stalinist accolytes are trying to bring about today could also be seen to use just three words. Here are a few options:
Diversity, Inclusion, Equity (DIE)
or how about – Diversity, Immigration, Replacement
or perhaps something more Blairite – Immigration, Immigration, Immigration
I have previously written about an article in The Independent on 28 September 2016 in which our now Chancellor, Rachel ‘Robber’ Reeves’ and current Manchester Mayor, Andy Burnham, seem to be warning Labour about the dangers of mass, open-borders immigration:
It’s a pity Starmer seems to have forgotten these warnings and, rather than controlling immigration, has decided to persecute anyone objecting to his plan to replace white ethnic ‘conservative’ with a small ‘c’ British with Third-world supposed ‘refugees’ fleeing from totally safe France with the enthusiastic help of the RNLI and our ludicrously misnamed ‘Border Force’.
With Two-tier Keir’s plods urgently scanning the Internet to find someone to blame for the anti-immigration riots, I have to be very careful with what I write. After all, it’s clear to Two-Tier Keir and his (IMHO) UK-hating, migrant-hugging, globalist, socialist chums that the anti-immigration riots are all due to mindless far-right thugs and nothing at all to do with the uncontrolled, open-borders immigration so beloved by our ruling political and media elites.
The facts
Anita Rose, 57, was walking her springer spaniel, Bruce, near Rectory Lane in Brantham on July 24 when she was attacked and left for dead. The mother of six and grandmother to 13, was found unconscious with serious head injuries by another walker at about 6.25am. She was taken to hospital where she died four days later.
Days after her death, detectives confirmed that a man in his 20s from the village and a 45-year-old man from Ipswich were arrested on suspicion of murder. A woman, 37, from Ipswich, was arrested on suspicion of handling stolen goods (I think it was Anita Rose’s mobile phone, but I may be wrong) in connection to the incident. All three have been released on conditional bail.
A rumour started spreading online that the three suspects were from a certain country in the Horn of Africa. The police have stated that this rumour is untrue.
The problem
Given the febrile atmosphere in the country, it would be catastrophic for our rulers if Anita Rose’s murderers were found to be from the multi-cultural enriching community. So, if the police do suspect that the murderers are new guests in our country, what will they do?
will we get ‘one-tier policing’ where the police vigorously pursue the suspected murderers, regardless of their country of origin or ethnicity, to ‘face the full force of the law’?
will we get ‘two-tier policing’ where the police are told to slow down the investigation, because the case is politically sensitive, in the hope that we’ll forget about the murder and then finally the case will go (conveniently for the politicians and police) unsolved?
Lies and lies and more lies
Over the last few years we seen so many instances in which our rulers have covered up and lied to us in order to increase their control over us:
the gang rape and gang sodomisation of perhaps 1,400+ mostly underage white British girls by rape and torture gangs from a certain South Asian country was hidden from us by the ‘two-tier’ police and politicians in order to supposedly preserve inter-community relations. The brilliant Mark Steyn was one of the few journalists who dared to expose this
we all know that Covid-19 leaked from a Chinese lab, yet our rulers have shown no interest in investigating this as they wanted to protect British business interests in China
we were told that the mRNA vaccines helped prevent the spread of the disease and were ‘safe and effective’. LIes, lies and more lies. The mRNA vaccines had never been tested to see if they reduced the spread of the disease and, as the brilliant Mark Steyn and equally brilliant Dr John Campbell have revealed, the huge number of people suffering vaccine harms showed the vaccines were not safe and not effective
there has been a large increase in death rates since the Chinese lab-leaked pandemic, yet our rulers show no interest in investigating why this has happened
a reliable study has indicated that the level of harms and deaths from the Moderna mRNA vaccine is about three times higher than the Pfizer version. But the British, Canadian and Australian governments have all struck multi-million pound and dollar deals with Moderna to set up Moderna mRNA vaccine manufacturing sites in their countries. So, no effort will ever be made to establish why harm and death rates from the Moderna vaccine seem to be so high
the supposed ‘climate crisis’ is being used to control us and make us all poorer and our lives more restricted. But there is no climate crisis, the whole thing is a massive scam pushed on us by a technocratic, globalist elite intoxicated by their increasing power over us
we have constantly been told that evil dictator Putin invaded Ukraine without being provoked by NATO. This is a lie. Putin warned the West, when he was invited to a NATO conference in (I think) 2008, that he regarded any attempt to expand NATO to Russia’s borders as a ‘direct threat’. Yet NATO snubbed Putin by discussing NATO membership with Ukraine and Georgia both of which have long borders with Russia
(Incidentally, a couple of items in the above list might seem to indicate to the more cynical among us why our rulers have used Ofcom to ensure we no longer see Mark Steyn on British TV)
What will our rulers and the police do?
That all brings us back to the question as to whether we can trust our rulers and the police to pursue ‘one-tier policing’ whereby they vigorously investigate the murder of Anita Rose. Or whether, if they suspect multi-cultural enrichers are guilty, we will get ‘two-tier policing’ as the authorities try to sweep the whole affair under the carpet as they believe we can’t be trusted with the truth.
Given Two-Tier Keir’s imminent attack on anyone daring to suggest that the recent anti-immigration protests might have had something to do with the political and media elites’ love of uncontrolled immigration, it’s probably not a great idea to comment on the current unrest. So I’ll write about something completely uncontroversial today.
I saw an ad on the TV yesterday from the RSPCA. They were asking people to cough up just £5 a month to sponsor animal protection. So I looked up the salary of the RSPCA boss. He or she is paid somewhere between £160,000 and £169,999 a year. The RSPCA don’t tell us worthless plebs the actual figure while asking for our money.
So, doing a bit of simple arithmetic, it seems the RSPCA needs between 2,700 to 2,800 of us to become £5-a-month sponsors just to pay the salary of the RSPCA boss. Then you have to remember that the RSPCA covers animals in (I think) just England and Wales. There’s also the SSPCA in Scotland. The SSPCA big boss pockets between £140,000 and £149,999. So that’s another 2,300 to 2,500 £5-a-month sponsors needed to pay his/her salary. There’s also USPCA (Ulster Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) in Northern Ireland but none of its employees was paid more than £60,000.
The 5,000+ £5-a-month sponsors only pay the salaries of the bosses of the RSPCA and the SSPCA. I haven’t done the numbers, but I imagine that more than 20,000 £5-a-month sponsors would be needed to pay the salaries of the whole management teams at the RSPCA and the SSPCA.
So, please give generously. Please sponsor a RSPCA or SSPCA fat-cat.

Fortunately for our rulers, most people don’t have a brain, or, if they have one, they seldom if ever use it:
In my weekend blog, I tried to show how Labour, BBC Verify, Sky News and most of the mainstream media were lying to us about the real cost of our electricity. I used this chart of the LCOE (Levelised Cost of Electricity) from a Government report to show where the eco-liars got their figures to claim that renewables like wind and solar were cheaper than gas:
I then used this table of prices the Government expected to actually pay. This showed to that renewables wrre actually much more expensive than the eco-liars claimed:
From what little I understand, few if any suppliers were prepared to provide electricity at these prices. So, the Government has now published increased prices to tempt suppliers into investing in the great green energy transition:
PLease note how much higher these prices are than the LCOE prices on my first chart:
Offshore wind has risen from £44 mWh to £102 mWh – more than doubling
Onshore wind has shot up from a LCOE of £44 mWh to £89 mWh – also more than doubling
Large-scale solar has risen from £41 mWh to £85 mWh – also more than doubling
But I suspect even these increased prices won’t be sufficient to satisfy energy companies.
That’s where Ed ‘Baldrick’ Miliband’s cunning plan comes in. Borrowing billions in our name to shove into the ludicrously-misnamed Great British Energy (GBE), Baldrick (sorry, I meant ‘Miliband’) will hand these billions to energy companies. Miliband will claim that GBE is ‘investing’ our money in joint ventures with the private sector into ‘the energy of the future’ and that this will lead to wondrous profits for British taxpayers. In fact, all he’ll be doing is trying to hide the real, economically-suicidal cost of useless, intermittent, unreliable supposed ‘renewables’.
A few weeks ago, I used this chart of electricity costs by source of generation. The chart comes from a government report which Mad Monk MIliband, the BBC Verify and the eco-nutters use to claim that expensive, intermittent and unreliable supposedly ‘clean’ electricity is cheaper than cheap reliable fossil-fuel energy:
(apologies for the chart being blurred. I don’t know why this has happened)
The problem with this chart is that it’s complete nonsense based on rather complicated theoretical assumptions – a LCOE (levelized cost of electricity) which I don’t fully understand or trust and therefore can’t explain. For a start, the chart is designed to make energy from gas (the first column) look much more expensive by adding on a supposed ‘carbon expense’ (the dark blue section on the first column). But even if you take off the ‘carbon expense’, gas still looks slightly more expensive than the £44 mWh for offshore wind (the second column), the £44 mWh for onshore wind (the third column) and the £41 mWh for large-scale solar (the fourth column).
At the same time as publishing this complete garbage, our useless right-hand-doesn’t-know-what-the-left-hand-is-doing government has also published the prices we will actually be paying for electricity by source:
(This chart comes from an official government Department of Energy and Net Zero report titled “Contracts for Difference (CfD): Core Parameters for the sixth allocation round, 2024”)
This gives a completely different and much more accurate picture of what we will be paying as these prices are based on actual contracts with suppliers and not on some mysterious and complex LCOEs:
whereas the first (theoretical) chart claimed that offshore wind will only cost £44 mWh, we will actually be paying £73 mWh for offshore wind (66% more) and an eyewatering £176 mWh for floating offshore wind power
the first chart (the one used by Miliband, the BBC Verify and the eco-fascists) tells us that onshore wind only costs £44 mWh. But the real price we will be paying is £64 mWh – around 45% more than the Miliband/BBC/eco-liars’ price
the first chart (the theoretical nonsense used by our lying rulers and our Greta-worshipping mainstream media) tells us that large-scale solar is one of the cheapest energy sources at just £41 mWh. But in reality we will be paying £61 mWh – about 49% more than MIliband, the BBC and the greenies admit
Once you take the real prices we will be paying for renewables like offshore wind, onshore wind and large-scale solar, electricity produced by gas-fired power stations actually becomes cheaper than the renewables. But by using the LCOE prices from the first chart, the MIliband/BBC/eco-idiots can claim renewables will lower our energy bills, while the actual contractual prices we will be paying will massively increase our electricity bills.
When I was a schoolboy, many decades ago, I used to read a magazine called ‘Mad’:
But I thought it was fiction and satire. I didn’t realise it would come to be reality in the brave new world the Miliband/BBC/eco-idiots have planned for us.
Now that the living corpse, Joseph ‘where-am-I?’ Biden has been booted out, it looks like his DIE (Diversity, Inclusion and Equality) hire, Kamala ‘I’m-a-black-woman’ Harris will be the desperate Democrats’ candidate against Trump.
Judging by the last 3+ years of Kamala as Vice President, you might have got the impression that Kamala ‘I’m-a-black-woman’ Harris’ was a nonentity prone to spouting word salads of nonsense and cackling uncontrollably for reasons that might not have been obvious to most people. Moreover, she only had one responsibility during her whole time as VP – protecting the US’s Southern border – and that didn’t go too well with over 5 million illegal migrants crossing into the US between 2021 and 2024:
However, now that she’s the likely Democrat candidate, we can expect the Trump-hating mainstream media – that’s the media which up till 12 days ago assured us that the living corpse, Joe ‘where-am-I?’ Biden, was as sharp as a razor – to begin the deification of Kamala ‘I’m-a-black-woman’ Harris. We’ll hear all about her family’s immigrant background, how her rise to power epitomises the American dream and how she’s really a towering political colossus who will wipe the floor with Trump and the Republicans.
So, as the mainstream media bigs up the useless Kamala ‘I’m-a-black-woman’ Harris, here’s the brilliant Lionel Shriver warning us what the mainstream media will be trying to sell us:
