Perhaps I’m forgetting some of the things which have utterly incensed the British public of late but two which immediately spring to my mind are the Winter Fuel Allowance for pensioners … plus Southport.
Going out on a limb here to say I don’t recall this number of people coming out of the woodwork to tweet or even Gab … people are incensed beyond … close to, if not THE worst govt in this country in living memory.
17. This blog is one month old today
… referring of course to HQ itself which you’re reading now. The various birthdays, incidentally, were:
Jul 26, 2006 … The various iterations of N.O.
Oct 29, 2006 … NOWP
Aug 31, 2022 … Jstack

16. Some more fraud and other crookedness I’m afraid
JH: Chris P is Rumble by the way.
15. Bannon
STEVE BANNON IS BACK, and his return monologue is insanely powerful.
"The four months in federal prison not only didn't break me, it empowered me. I am more energized and more focused than I've ever been in my entire life."
Interesting how the respective platforms viewed my custom and their hosting:
Maybe time for a quick review of how nourishing unherdables is going
a. The print size at HQ … nothing I can do to enlarge inside … however, when the ipad or your phone is vertical, the print size is pretty right. Only in landscape mode is it iffy.
b. My commenting below your comment with ….. JH and the comment does seem better. I looked at how AKH does it and it’s good but it does not work as well at HQ and NOWP. The current system seems good for here.
c. NOWP just keeps on keeping on, albeit with some glitches, as it is a “free” version (dot com) … in fact it’s the core of nourishing unherdables.
d. HQ has turned out to be beyond expectations and all thanks to MMUTR for the massive backend … if you saw what we have here behind the modest front page, you’d be impressed. Now, we must announce something:
Tomorrow, Wednesday, we are running some testing of the various parts of HQ, inc. hub and other goodies. MMUTR expects no interference with HQ … just refresh if anything looks iffy … but we do need to do it … it should take me, personally, out of blogging from around 1100 to maybe mid afternoon.
It’s really amazing to watch Lefties continue to fall for the zero sum scam, decade after decade. They are seemingly incapable of grasping the subjective theory of value.
b. Jacob Hersant (in Oz)
Leftists care about Aboriginals only insofar as they can be used as a weapon against Whites
“Former Trump chief strategist and War Room host Stephen K. Bannon was released from FCI Danbury in Connecticut on Tuesday morning at around 3:15AM, The National Pulse can report.”
JH: After the MSG rally of course. These people we’re up against are truly evil.
6. The oh-so-clever march through the institutions
Two quotes to start:
a. If the law supposes that,” said Mr. Bumble, squeezing his hat emphatically in both hands, “the law is a ass — a idiot. If that’s the eye of the law, the law is a bachelor; and the worst I wish the law is, that his eye may be opened by experience — by experience.” ― Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist
b. The wife of the Yorkshire Ripper sued Private Eye, prompting a youthful Ian Hislop to announce: “If that is justice, I’m a banana.”
Where is the iniquity? Cleverly, technically, they may well be in breach of the letter of the specific, iniquitous law but the injustice of the whole set up is what they’re both railing against. The judge is adept in jumping from the particular to the general and back again to solidify the judgment … but it’s certainly unjust overall.
Let’s go back to 1954:
c. Today the path to total dictatorship in the U.S. can be laid by strictly legal means, unseen and unheard by Congress, the President, or the people. Outwardly we have a Constitutional government. But there is a well-organized political-action group in this country, determined to destroy our Constitution and establish a one-party state.
The important point to remember about this group is not its ideology but its organization. It is a dynamic, aggressive, elite corps, forcing its way through every opening. It operates secretly, silently, continuously to transform our government without suspecting that change is under way.
If this seems to be an extremist assessment, the reason is that this revolutionary clique cannot be understood unless we accept the fact that they are extremist. It is difficult for people governed by reasonableness and morality to imagine the existence of a movement which ignores reasonableness and boasts of its determination to destroy; which ignores morality, and boasts of its cleverness in outwitting its opponents by abandoning all scruples.
This ruthless power-seeking elite is a disease of our century. This group is answerable neither to the President, the Congress, nor the courts. It is practically irremovable. But, by scalpel or sword, we must remove it.
– Senator William E. Jenner
Again I ask … where’s the iniquity? It’s in the overall major move by the forces of evil to flood the countries of the west, plus the net zero excrescence, plus the plandemics, lockdowns etc., plus chemtrail poisoning … it goes on and on … wrapped and protected by laws, hundreds of em, in institutions such as the ECHR which are the opposite of what they purport, plus using moral, feelgood language to sell the evil to the dumb and/or young, such that any attack on a specific is officially viewed as an attack on “democracy” or whatever … the Constitution … when that’s precisely what the lot of them are doing.
That was a pretty vital rally on Saturday in London as it casts these remarks below as the bollox they are and I’ll specify why straight after them:
Otherwise the rule of law would break down? Notice the sudden change from the rule of iniquitous laws brought in to implement this terrorism from within … to a feelgood general principle no reasonable person could disagree with.
Therefore, any opposing the first is instantly cast as an attacker of the second … it is false, it is satanic, it is ubiquitous right across the west … it is a cancer. It’s also set up such that if any do dare speak out, they’re insta-clobbered “to the full extent of the way OTT draconian penalties allowed”, whilst favoured groups get none of it.
The very epithet Two Tier sums it up. That’s where the iniquity is which people were demonstrating against and every single adult in the west knows it and is prevented from doing anything. Anyone going vigilante … individual, small group … clobbered.
Iniquitous, yes. The major question is how to overcome it, as William Jenner was trying to on the Senate floor.
a) Macron choses some strange friends. He goes on an official visit to Marocco. Included in the party, but not on the official list, is Yassine Belattar. Wiki here https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yassine_Belattar [Sorry, that it is French]
b) Gambling on Life and Death: Euthanasia Back on French Agenda.
c) French Prime Minister Michel Barnier wants to show a five-year reform plan that will draw on the grievances and ideas President Emmanuel Macron asked around two million French people to share after the Yellow Vest movement in 2019 [but never published].
3. Now this poor joker at the MSG rally
The event was a triumph, the “comedian” came on near the end, apparently, and made a joke about Puerto Rican trash in the street … whatever … it was as crass as Tice over here, not needed … one Xer’s comment:
You have a good point. I don’t mind having a comedian but why choose one who is so incredibly tone deaf that he makes jokes about minority groups, all the while knowing that the entire Democratic narrative is that the rally is filled with Nazis and racists? He gave them ammunition for their false narrative. Why couldn’t he have told jokes about Democrats and their stupidity regarding everything. Why even go to the racial humor. It was really bizarre. Almost as if he did it to help the Democrats.

1. Some sort of op ed
… including Steve drops and Andy comments … first Andy. One on a Japanese village … sad … and one I’m about to look at, but not the issue itself. Call me cantankerous, blodymind, petty and childish but when I see this:
… my first reaction is: “Get knotted!” You want to prevent me seeing the info, however good or not? Go away … and I click out, noting what it said as I go, plus going back and seeing what Andy wrote. And it only cost me 40kb for that screenshot anyway.
(1812) Crashed earlier, surfacing now. Memo to self … if you set quizzes, Jimbo, at least be around for them.
19. It’s not just us then?
18. Steve has, at 858
… two pieces on the rally at MSG and the DNC tried dirty tricks around the Hitler jibe, inc. projecting propaganda on the wall.
17. Andy has a piece at 858 on an RN sub
… which ran out of food due to its supply vessel not turning up:
However, the Royal Navy has denied any allegations of food shortages or safety risks, maintaining that the submarine’s crew consistently received a “nutritionally balanced diet” throughout the mission. An official spokesperson affirmed, “Robust procedures ensure crew safety at all times on missions.”
16. Moving home with Charlie is his moniker
… it’s via Legiron:
I just tried listening to Starmer’s speech. I had to stop. It was making me too angry.
I (once) tried employment. I worked for large companies. Insurance, Banking, Derivatives Broking. It wasn’t for me.
When I left (ok, got fired) to become self-employed (hence not a “working person” in Starmer’s view), my quality of life immediately improved (as a car valeter), many people turned against me out of pure envy. They didn’t want to wash cars. No, they weren’t willing to work that hard. They just wanted my freedoms, but weren’t willing to put in the work required to get it.
Some of them, between jobs, came and asked me for work. I gave it to them. It made them hate me even more. Some of them, friends whom I trusted, even stole from me. This was when I was 23 years old. I employed 16 people in a hand car wash, in Crawley station car park.
For some reason, that enraged those people more, as if I was doing something wrong. They were angry with me, like I had done something wrong. It’s important to note that there were plenty of people, old friends, who congratulated me and wished me well, and even said “I wish I’d had the courage to do the same”.
It’s not for everyone. All I had done was choose to take a chance on myself. They were angry, because they didn’t have the courage to do it. They should have been angry with themselves. They let themselves down, I didn’t.
Some of them tried self-employment, but half-heartedly, failed, and gave up almost immediately. That made it even worse. I failed, repeatedly, but just kept going, a little stronger and wiser each time.
Eventually, at the ripe old age of 26 I got into the tech world, in property. Suddenly I was working in an office, with a team. I was the boss. I had clients, investors, money was coming in. We were changing things. We opened an office in Australia, because a big client asked us to. I found myself flying back and forth between London and Sydney, signing clients, working up to 20 hours a day, having the best time, seeing the world.
At this point, employing some 40 people, some of my old friends just stopped talking to me altogether. “Who the hell does he think he is?” as though me starting a business and creating jobs was an affront to them. I could go on, you get the idea.
What’s my point? Keir Starmer, Rachel Reeves and many of the Cabinet are the kinds of people who never had the courage to start anything themselves, and deeply resent those of us who have, because we are a living reminder of their weakness of character.
Now they have power, it is their time for revenge. They truly, deeply, viscerally hate free-thinking, harder-working (than employees), change-making people. It’s an affront to their misguided sense of self-importance. They hate the self employed. You’re not “working people”. You’re not a pay-rolled wage slave they can control.
Plumbers? No, you’re not hard working apparently. Feckless, self employed layabouts. We’ll soon tax you into submission. Farmers? Hard working, obviously not. So you’re completely f***ed. Successful small business people who have worked hard, saved up and invested? F*** you. Prepare to reap the rewards of bitterness and jealousy from people who believe in “equality of outcome” over “equality of opportunity.”
There are people I know who are fighting and grinding themselves into the ground in the face of ever weakening economic demand, paying wages, having no time for their families. To suggest these people aren’t hard working is an egregious affront, and in today’s speech, Starmer has doubled down on his use of this language.
This budget is going to be a disaster. The politics of envy, enacted through a budget.
[Important point: this is in no way a criticism of people who don’t choose self employment. Many people choose employed careers, are fulfilled, happy and do very well, and I have many great friends who have done just that. It is only a commentary on those who are unhappy with their life choices, but not willing to do anything about it. Instead they attack anyone who makes them feel inadequate, when their inadequacies are purely of their own making.]
”This film, based on a stage play by Edgar Wallace, is one of those traditional British murder mysteries set in an enormous aristocratic mansion with all kinds of supercilious people, suspicious servants, stupid detectives, and maidens in distress. But it is by no means as corny as it sounds. The film is dominated by the powerful presence of Helen Haye, an actress with the cutting edge of a diamond blade, who lashes everyone in sight with her reproving tongue.”
