A review:

“A gangster, Dave (Robert Newton) who double-crosses some other gangsters finds himself in desperate trouble in “The Green Cockatoo.”

Warned by his brother Jim (John Mills) to get out of town quickly, Dave goes to the train station. He has an altercation with the gang and is knifed. He latches onto a young woman, Eileen (Rene Ray) who has just arrived in London from a small town. He tells her that he can bring her to a good place to stay, and she accompanies him.

You really have to suspend disbelief that a young woman would just go off with a stranger. And it gets better. Once she’s in her room, and he has left, he suddenly returns. I’d be screaming my lungs out.

However, she sees that he’s hurt and agrees to help him. Unfortunately, he dies, and the landlady thinks she did it. Before he dies, he gives her a message for his brother at the Green Cockatoo.

With the police and the gang after her, she finds The Green Cockatoo. She doesn’t know anything about Jim, a song and dance man there, and to get away from her followers, she starts wandering around the upstairs of the club. She meets Jim, not realizing he’s the man she’s looking for.

Despite Eileen’s strange behavior in the beginning, this is a fun film. John Mills is delightful singing and dancing. In one scene, as he attempts to hide Eileen from the police, he says she is his new performing partner.

He sings “Smoky Joe” – all she has to do is say the words “Smoky Joe” when he pauses. It’s hilarious. She is supposed to not be able to sing, but you can tell by her off-key “Smoky Joes” that she actually had a good voice.

Recommended – nice British noir from 1937.”

25. Lord Somber on rape charges against men


Somber

24. Hillary’s latest

There are certain things we are delighted to have been wrong on. In Mon 13, I mentioned that an account I thought was Hillary was probably a fan’s.

She just wrote … it’s her all right. Gulp. I’m going to be posting her more regularly now, also at X.

23. What the police are for … and not for


22. David Limbaugh on the third party

21. Draino on the Epstein thing


20. Item 19b I’m also onto

19. Steve at 1099, war room

  • Ben Bergquam Reports 82 Dead From Massive Flash Flood
  • DOJ Report: Epstein Did Not Have A Client List, Tom Fitton Reacts

18. Much incoming on two topics

Redacted seems to be onto the Alligator thing, with MMutR who is also on Red Flag laws. Meanwhile, Toodles is ferreting the whole Camp Mystery thing … there’s something iffy about it, also refusing info requests. You just don’t wipe out a whole lot of little girls by designer flood with something being covered up. Very first thought … abuse?

At the same time, why did Elon post a huge panel ad asking about the Epstein list? MAGA are onto it. Why did DJT blame the ‘radical right’ today? Why did Cooper in the UK blame the ‘far right’ today?

Mon Mat

 

HERE

At two hours, that will take us nicely up to late afternoon resuming of politics again. Just a screenshot below … link is above left. Hanoi Jane’s dad is the down at the heel working class man hero in the movie. Interesting FDR Jr year to release the film.

Monday [15 to 17]

(1220). Going to look through the Redacted movies from the other day, run one of those later (cunning plan anyway). Just now posting Mon 15, then a lunch break for the lunch cooking … tricky today so need to concentrate on just that for half an hour. (1403) Going looking for a movie for a while. Lunch was nice.

 

17. Redacted in plainspeak

… get it while you can. ☺️

”Andrew Anglin is worried about Alligator Alcatraz. He makes the excellent point we made here – that these things being built are not being built for the migrants. You do not need to ship migrants to Gitmo, and then from there fly them home. Just fly them home right straight-away. You don’t need to fly migrants out to the Everglades, and then fly them home. Just fly them home. Anglin is worried those facilities are being set up for us, but I suspect if that were the intention, Trump would have been championing “Common-sense” assault rifle legislation which would have included pump and lever action rifles, since they can fire quickly too, and bolt action sniper rifles, which would be all bolt-action rifles, and handguns too, since they are only good for “sneak attacks.””

16. Steve just now

”Remembering the events of 7 July 2005 the Home Secretary, Evette Balls-Cooper, mentions the ‘far-right’. Yeah, since when did anyone of that political persuasion plants bombs all over the place? And the Mayor of London said it was done to ‘sow division between communities’. Well he would say that wouldn’t he, since it came from his ‘community’……”

15. People truly never learn

No wonder Jesus had to come to earth to save them from themselves. This was from Liverpool Echo a short time ago:

“A mum who took ill while on her dream holiday is stuck over 2,000 miles away from home. Rebecca Russell, 32, has been in intensive care unit (ICU) for more than a week after she started throwing up three days into her holiday to Morocco.

Monday [11 to 14]

(1104) Afternoon all. (1209)

 

14. Fine art

Posted by one https://x.com/RitaCobix and it’s an art account.


I’d say it’s ML (known by more as AI) but that, imho, does not detract from the beauty of it. Regular tavern patrons (and on X) know I repost many pictures of landscapes, architecture, classic art (not necessarily classical) and I’ve an eye for “breathtaking curves” of course, as many have:


That had me thinking about why most men tend to be able to discern women from girls, unlike paedos. Not always and when men err, it’s called jailbait … but it’s different to those Podesta type creeps we’re having such trouble with in the west … it’s not only Malsi or Ikap involved either … it’s especially the illumined globopsycho … IYE has written much about those creeps. You can throw in paedo priests there as well.

Haley Reinhardt:

Now that makes it much easier for a man with red blood … not foolproof of course … stick to curves. If she slots into your arms like a jigsaw piece … fine. If she’s like a stick insect or if she’s a boy … avoid. Stick to fine curves in machinery, art, architecture … and women.

13. Yep, I was caught out yet again

Long ago, it was Draino “writing to me”, only to immediately press me into taking all my money out and going crypto. One you might recall was Rubio “writing to me”, only to immediately press me into taking all my money out and going crypto.

Sad to realise we can still be well and truly duped … in this case prone to the flattery of a big name noticing me, when I’d thought I was flattery-immune. And now I’ve just gone and done it again.

Someone tweeted a pic of a girl clog dancing and playing fiddle … no name on it though … well, it was obvious who it was, which brought a near immediate “like”:


This Hillary Klug:

Now I ask you … who’s not going to be flattered? But twice bitten, third time shy … I checked out the account … seems a fan account, it’s called a “parody” account, though on X, it could be genuine. The Barron Trump one is.

12. The battle lines are now clearly drawn


11. Longrider has a nice piece up

a most important piece … excerpt:

“In Skegness, Lincolnshire, Gary is just one of a number of business owners to share that 2025 has been an exceptionally hard year.

He has decided to sell up and claimed the housing of asylum seekers in some hotels in the town has deterred people from visiting.”

Calling time on his business rather than accept the moolah cannot have been easy. However, it was the ethically right one.

JH: Ethical dilemma it is not … he could not continue, correct decision … staying alive dilemma it is for him. And on top of that, someone buying it … well I think you know who would, what sort of person … conglomerate, PPP, all for invader hotels … and where does that leave tourism in that town? Virtually forever. Let alone indigenous residents for eons.

Globopsycho Marxists are complete and utter bstds, hating humanity per se.

Anniversary of 7/7 [1 to 4]

(0741) Morning all, very, very long sleep, which can be good or not so good. Sickness in our neck of the woods but so far not me. Atmosphere poisonous, temp low, people with heaters on. A prayer for those dead and injured in Texas (flood). (0818)

 

4. The 7/7 terrorist bombings

The 7 July 2005 London bombings, also referred to as 7/7, were a series of four co-ordinated suicide attacks carried out by Islamist terrorists that targeted commuters travelling on London’s public transport during the morning rush hour. (Wiki)

More on this and the other strocities mentioned today a bit later in other posts.

3. DAD at 1098 today

a) On the night of Saturday, July 5 to Sunday, July 6, 2025, before the start of the second stage of the Tour de France, the northern team Cofidis suffered the theft of eleven machines, resulting in damages exceeding €100,000. The riders were still able to start.

b) Fance’s moderate Left has distanced itself from radical firebrand Jean-Luc Mélenchon as it lays the groundwork for a unified front in the 2027 presidential election.

c) “That’s a fine mess that you’ve got us into”. Paris Marie allows swimming in the river Seine.

d) Child grooming is more prevalent in London than in any other part of Britain, a leading child safeguarding campaigner has claimed.

JH: The starred items will be addressed in separate post-items this morning.

1. DAD’s last item first from 1098

JH: I for one am quite out of touch with sport just now … vague idea LFC won the League, England had some fightback in cricket, rugby, Wimbledon is on and someone on X said the after match commentary adds nothing to the game. Can’t comment as not watching.

DAD mentions Le Tour in his main post today.

Djokovic … interesting character … still desperately going for popularity. He started as the Joker years ago, with Sharapova, Ivanova etc., did impersonations … but character to steely and resentful, while Federer was the normies’ darling.

Speaking personally, I’d put him at the top of my tennis faves on the strength of how Oz treated him during the Covid scam, though a consistently top player can’t be all that nice a guy to stay up at the top.

Sunday [11 till close of play]

(1715) Evening all.
