RACE REALISM LIVES
Despite years of lib-left campaigning to enforce peecee religiosity and Kick Racism Out of Football, a Daily Mail reporter – himself a Black from the Caribbean – got the following snaps (and others like them) (19 vi).
At first glance, they look like any bunch of young lads sitting down to a meal. In this case, they happen to be the England Under-20s football squad. Look more closely, though, and you will see a startling fact: one table is entirely inhabited by black players, the other by white.
The same pattern can be seen in other pictures taken at the squad’s training base during a tournament in France [in May].
Exercising in the swimming pool, six white players line up alongside each other, while the black youngsters gather together at the other end of the pool. And on a line of training bikes, it is the same story. Black and white separated by colour.
TOP LUNIS GET RELIGION UNCLUBBED
In the same week when Oxford received its final instalment of posthumous punishment from Lady Thatcher, as the last of her personal effects (books, handbag etc.) went to Churchill College, Cambridge (in revenge for Oxford hating her and not having given her an honorary degree), students of Magdalen College, Cambridge, took their turn at peecee mania by demanding the cessation of jelly wrestling by bikinied undergraduettes (q.v.) – a demand to which the sorry college’s Provost Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, readily acceded since he too judged such drinking club practices as ‘sexist’ (Sunday Mail, 21 vi).
Killjoy student despots at both Oxford and Cambridge also launched a campaign called No Exclusive And Sexist Societies. The petition called for the for an end to clubs such as the historic Pitt Club, which had counted Edward VII and George V as members, and Oxford's Bullingdon Club, whose alumni of 2015 included Prime Minister David Cameron and Chancellor George Osborne.
RACE-REALIST MONKS vs MUESLIS
With cavalier disregard for the thirty-year pretentiousness of Western leftists, postmodernists, social anthropologists etc to the effect that ‘races’ do not exist, an influential group of Buddhist monks announced it would defend Myanmar/Burma’s “race and religion” against Rohingya (q.v.)
Muslims who had invaded from neighbouring basket-case Bangladesh/Bengal. Meeting in Rangoon, some 1,300 monks of Ma Ba Tha [Organization for the Protection of Race and Religion] said they would encourage Burma’s electorate and military government to ban the wearing of headscarves in schools – they had previously had success in making it a crime for a woman to bear more than one baby in three years, a eugenic measure targeting chiefly the Rohingyas (Guardian, 23 vi).
RACISM ROCKS ON
Guardianistas were shocked to be told that the Spanish clothing retailer Zara was “implementing aggressively racist policies in its New York City stores” (24 vi). In a survey of 251 employees – roughly one-sixth of Zara’s New York workforce – Black employees in particular reported mistreatment from management, and many workers said they were ordered to racially profile customers.
In the survey, conducted by a pro-worker advocacy group, Center for Popular Democracy, employees recalled being instructed to flag certain shoppers as “special orders” over their radio headsets – a code signalling that the customer was a likely shoplifter and should be followed and watched.
According to survey respondents, signs that a customer might qualify as a special order included being African American, being a Black and “dressing a certain way” (cleavage-showing trousers, hoodies).
Even worse, a peecee sleuth went rummaging in the Australian constitution (Guardian, 24 vi) and found it expressly permitted ‘racist’ legislation to keep “Asiatic and African aliens” from getting their hands on Oz gold (a real anxiety in the 1890s when the Australian constitution had last been reformulated).
Particularly, the constitution stated it enabled “the Parliament to deal with the people of any alien race after they have entered the Commonwealth; to localise them within defined areas, to restrict their migration, to confine them to certain occupations, or to give them special protection and secure their return after a certain period to the country whence they came.”
CARRY ON CRUCIFYING
Black Friday, when scores of Poms, Krauts, Frogs and Shitites were gunned, bombed or decapitated in Tunisia, France and Kuwait, came and went with the usual junkets for EU politicos (whom jihadists strangely spared from their depradations – perhaps because of incompetence, or perhaps because they wanted continued protection from Western ‘leaders’).
Not a single mosque was closed, let alone burned down; not a single burqa or other hoodie was banned; no suggestion was made of a person’s support for jiheading cancelling UK citizenship; no sanctions were sought against Solunni countries (like Saudi and Qatar) whose mega-rich citizens funded Islamic terror; and not a single Christian minister was told his/her continued pay and emoluments would depend on avoiding sneering at the Crusades.
Instead, under the POTUShip of Black/Muesli Obarmy, yag ‘marriage’ and taxbreaks were forced (by a 5-4 Supreme Court vote) on every state of the USA to parade before Russia’s President Putin the sheer unlikelihood of the West’s lunchers [sea bass a favourite with Euroscoffers in Brussels] sitting down with him to discuss the problems of the Ukraine, Syria, the Horn of Africa and Chechnya (where IS/ISIS/ISIL/Daesh had earlier in the week declared war on Russia -- in token of which 400 fanatic Chechen Solunnis had already got themselves to Syria/Iraq to help with rape, pillage, beheadings and the blowing up of Mesopotamian ruins).
No: the peecee goons of politics, the polytechnics and MSM were not to be distracted by A/A mayhem from their chosen task of bringing more slave labourers and welfare backers to the West to replace natives who drew disconcerting strength from their families or their own two feet.
Still, the latest ISlamic atrocity at least drew support for Oz Queensman PM Tony Abbott from noted British historian Michael Burleigh who, writing in the Mail (27 vi), said the West would have to hire Algeria or Morocco as dumping grounds ooops safe havens for boat people whose invading millions might well contain substantial contributions of IS jiheaders.
Perhaps the West would re-learn from Australia how to resume the White man’s burden – though the über-diners of Brussels seemed set to be slow learners as they squabbled about the Muesli invasion throughout three courses, leaving PM Daft Dave only five minutes to present British demands for EU reform (to limit international welfarist free-loading) while the cheese was served.

MIGRANTS REJECTED
Having easily won re-election as Governor of the northern Italian region of Veneto, Luca Zaia, a star of the surging anti-immigrant Northern League party, wasted little time showing voters that he had heard and understood their demands. Claiming that the sight of African migrants would have a “devastating effect” on the tourism industry, Zaia called for local officials across his region to begin clearing all reception centres and other housing occupied by migrants near tourist areas (Observer, 14 vi).
His decision reflected the dismay that had been expressed to him in “every way and in every place,” Zaia claimed, adding that all further placements should be halted. This was the latest salvo in an escalating standoff between Zaia – together with other rightwing governors in Liguria and Lombardy – and the government in Rome, where argument had broken out over a plan by the centrist Prime Minister, Matteo Renzi, to distribute tens of thousands of African migrants and refugees across Italy.
Eritreans wait for food at Milan’s central railway station
EMPIRE FOR ERITREA
As Eritreans continued to make up 25% of aspirimmigrants crossing (when not dying in) the Med as they fled the brutal dictatorship of President Isaias Afwerki (a Muslim with Marxist episodes who made his money from gun-running to fellow Mueslis at odds with Christians and animists in Somalia and South Sudan), the UK’s lib-left Observer cried out for Western intervention (14 vi):
“The World Bank and IMF should take a fresh look at how best to encourage good governance, job creation and improved living standards for emerging generations of young workers.”
Offering the conclusion that taking Eritrea in hand was the most likely way of persuading Eritreans “to stay at home”, the Observer thus showed the English Labour Party the way to go as it struggled after its Election disaster to find an appeal to voters that was at once new, humane and practical.”
(Of course, there would be no point re-organizing Eritrea et al. if these countries had their brighter young tempted away by copious Western welfare, medical, educational and housing benefits showered on all who so much as got their feet on to tarmac.)
DINNERS FOR EUROBABBLERS
As France, Switzerland, Hungary and Austria took steps towards closing their borders against A/A’s streaming into them from Italy (in France’s case sending 200 heavily padded gendarmes to Ventimiglia, on the Riveria, to force 6K A/A’s back into Italy and seal the border against them), the Italian prime minister, Matteo Renzi, said that, if no “equitable deal” were struck to spread the wretched of the earth across the whole of western Europe, Rome would start issuing migrants with temporary visas allowing them to travel elsewhere in Europe, stop receiving the hundreds of boats arriving from Libya and refuse docking for foreign ships rescuing those stranded at sea (Guardian, 16 vi).
But, meeting in Luxembourg, EU home secretaries could only bring themselves to plan jolly celebrations of the ‘borderless Europe’ thought to have been begun by the Schengen agreement (which Britain, Éire and Denmark had managed to avoid agreeing). It was thought that countries like Poland and Romania might take a few more dinners ooops migrants if the EU pressed ahead with its equally daft policy of irritating Russia over the Ukraine.
Ukip’s Nigel Farage warned that the hordes of aspirimmigrants crossing the Med could soon be “of biblical proportions” – in the millions; and that Isis would insert its fanatics among the boat people. Even Guardian correspondents were 50% in favour of halting the migration (17 vi).
The Pope suggested that those opposed to the A/A invasion should “seek forgiveness”; but his comments were rejected by the leader of Italy’s anti-immigration Northern League, Matteo Salvini, who retorted on Italian radio by asking, 'How many refugees are there in the Vatican?'
Hungary's foreign minister announced plans to close his country’s border with Serbia to stem the flow of illegal migrants. The Hungarians would build a four-metre high, 110-mile long fence along the border in response to the growing number of migrants (Daily Mail, 17 vi). Hungary had the highest inflow of migrants per caput in Europe, taking in 55K in the first half of 2015 – representing a 60-fold increase in immigration in three years (Guardian, 18 vi).
In Australia, it was revealed that the policy of paying boat people to stay away from Oz had been introduced by the previous Labor government. {This would be helpful news for British Labourites as they searched for new policies – with the aim, if they were wise, of winning back nationalistic, anti-Muslim votes that had gone to Ukip.}
SEX REALISM RE-ASSERTED
Support for Britain’s spurned* Nobelist Sir Tim Hunt (who, called by South Korean female hostesses to provide post-lunch entertainment about ‘Women in Science,’ had lightheartedly mentioned the problems of love affairs in labs and the female propensity to tears, and thus apparently enraged feminasties – see above) came from Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, in his weekly Telegraph column (15 vi).
Very properly, Boris consulted the work of the world’s leading expert on crying (Professor Ad Vingerhoets of Tilburg University) for empirical demonstration that women cry five times as often and twice as copiously as men.
The politician in Boris could not resist a diplomatic admission that such submissive protection-seeking might reflect ‘social’ factors; but Boris was bold enough to say that Sir Tim “should be reinstated forthwith to his academic positions.”
In this he was joined by the Mail’s Tom Utley who deplored the cowardice of many academics under the “tyranny” of PeeCee (18 vi), by eight Nobelists and even by some 50% of Guardian correspondents; and, on the BBC’s ‘Question Time,’ eminent libertarian Conservative David Davies MP said it was actually the bosses of UCL who should be sacked for ‘bringing the university into disrepute.’
Whether or not because of the Hunt scandal, veteran American stand-up Jackie Mason, 84, chose the moment to join his fellow comic Jerry Seinfeld in noting and deploring the C21 allowance of free speech only to increasingly tyrannous Blacks and gays who could call straight Wasps anything they liked (Chortle Comedy News, 20 vi).
Evolutionist Richard Dawkins said, "Along with many others, I didn't like Sir Tim Hunt's joke, but 'disproportionate' would be a huge underestimate of the baying witch-hunt that it unleashed among our academic thought police....”
*Even British scientists’ weekly, Nature (18 vi), paraded the 20-year gutlessness of British academoids in the face of PeeCee: the magazine whined about Sir Tim’s “dismaying” remarks “belittling women” and urged that women be included in future in laboratories’ expeditions to the pub.
TRUMP JUMPS IN
Galvanizing American Republicans’ search for a candidate to win the White House in 2016, billionaire Donald Trump, 69 and father of five and on his third marriage, put his name forward just a day after Jeb Bush had done likewise (New York Times, 16 vi).
DT said he would stay the course – unlike in previous Republican selection campaigns when he had achieved only 5% support. DT flirted with a fine array of conservative/realist positions, having maintained his Presbyterean faith, having said Blacks were born idle, having denounced unwed motherhood, having spurned ‘climate change’ hysteria, having opposed abortion and third-world immigration (wanting a new Great Wall of China against Mexican invaders – whom he called “criminals,” drug peddlers and “rapists”) and having been a pal of flaky rightist Sarah Palin; but he was liberal about trade, believing ‘May the best man win’ (usually himself, except when Muslims were allowed to cheat on oil deals by an Obama-enfeebled USA).
His aim to ‘Make America great again’ might be unexceptionable; but he expressed it with enthusiasm, and his stress on the importance of being “smart,” “bright,” and “talented,” as opposed to being “stupid” was refreshing even if terms like ‘IQ’ and ‘the g factor’ never cropped up. His eldest daughter Ivanka
characterized him as ‘the opposite of political correctness’; and he had even been brave enough to face down comedian Ali G’s faux-naἵve TV interviewing which elicited peecee politeness from most celebrities (the only other notable exception being leftist Tony Benn).
A showman of clear, strong and nicely detailed views, The Donald would surely prove more watchable than most other Presidential hopefuls put together; and thus whittle down the 50% of US voters who claimed to dislike him.
INTELLIGENCE AGAINST INVASION
Taking a couple of hours off from a jaunt to Milan’s ‘Expo’ exhibition, UK PM Daft Dave lunched with his Italian counterpart Matteo Renzi and promised help from British intelligence services (MI5, 6, 7, 8 etc.) to examine, document and discuss the hordes of A/A’s with which Italy was being inundated. Over a meal of risotto alla Milanese and roast veal, washed down with Soave and Bardolino wines, Cameron appeared to have been given a fairly sympathetic hearing for his case that the EU needed changes.
Both leaders agreed the migrant problem originated outwith Italy {perhaps in Britain with its post-Thatcher idealism and demand for slave labour?...}; and that it would take months if not years of lunches ooops committee work to solve.
LEFTISM DENTED
At a Q&A in Edinburgh’s Cineworld for his film ‘The Stanford Prison Experiment,’ Californian director Kyle Alvarez surprisingly agreed {with me} that the Stanford University scenario (of a mock prison arrangement where some of the student ‘guards’ and ‘prisoners’ threw themselves over-enthusiastically into their parts – earning a handsome $15 per day in 1970 for their work) was comparable to that of William Golding’s ‘Lord of the Flies.’
Surprising because Dr Philip Zimbardo’s ‘experiment’ was usually interpreted by leftish social scientists as illustrating the evils of authority and of obedience to it. But Alvarez insisted ‘The Lord of the Flies’ (where schoolboys run amok after their teachers die in the plane crash that had landed them on a desert island) had indeed been much on his mind – as well he might, for the Stanford study (or simulation, as another Stanford professor called it) essentially involved a lack of authority as Zimbardo allowed his ‘guards’ to swear and shout at ‘prisoners’ and to intimidate and humiliate them (they were made to wear dresses when not stripped), ultimately culminating in the ‘guards’ mock-sodomizing the ‘prisoners’ (at which point the ‘experiment’ was stopped as it dawned on Zimbardo that he had gone too far – if not for leftists -- in his ludicrous caricature of authority as capricious and brutal).
ADIOS, AMERICA!
Divine* US journaliste Ann Coulter provided an vigorous account at a signing in Washington of her most recent book which accused American authorities of hiding the vast extent of the problems arising from third-world immigration (AmRen, 18 vi).
A bon mot from Ann: “Unless you’re being called a racist by the New York Times, you’re losing.”
Another: "Roe v. Wade can be overturned. Obamacare can be repealed. Amnesty [for illegal immigrants] is forever."
*An AmRen correspondent (18 vi): There is no one remotely like Ann, part Mort Sahl, part Joan of Arc, the mind of a Harvard Law Professor trapped in the body of a Victoria's Secret model. The proper response is adoration.
The one discrepancy that intrigues me is that she is an ardent Christian (practically demanding martyrdom) and creationist (how ironic that the apogee of evolution denies evolution).. Race realism is based on evolutionary biology. That suggests a fault line, but her outreach to the dissident right has been impressively enthusiastic.
As for money-making, she would make much, much more if she tapered her views ever so slightly. With her looks and her wit, she is prime time material. She could drive a hard Faustian bargain but she'd rather have lunch with Vdare bloggers or even our Jared.

BLACKOUT BRITAIN
All electrical power was cut in south Edinburgh for the fourth time in four years. The slide of Scotland’s capital towards third-world status coincided with reports that the products of modern Britain’s ‘schools’ and fatherless ‘families’ did not know how to put up a shelf, change a light bulb or mow the grass, not to mention having fallen out of the world’s top 25 countries in level of educational attainment.
Edinburgh’s power cuts varied between one and four hours in length and were provided by faceless ‘suppliers’ who could never be contacted and by the SNP-led city council best known for its useless trams.
At least there wasn’t a war on; though the West’s decline into IQ-disrespecting idealism and fatuous bureaucracy would pretty soon change that as thousands of A/A’s were ferried in daily to enjoy what was left of civilization before they closed it down completely:
CARRY ON LABOURING
As the post-Election rump of Britain’s socialists embarked on an already-acrimonious four-cornered leadership contest between unheard-of, unreconstructed millilitrelites, they gave themselves a holiday ooops conference at trade union expense in Dublin (BBCR4 9 vi, 08:40) under the pretext of discussing skules – which the all-powerful Blob of leftist-ridden educationists had led to worldwide ignominy, their slight concern for standards producing only pathetic feats of rote learning and their febrile quest for classroom contentment yielding only indiscipline which increasingly required police to sort out.
So what ways forward were suggested? Would children be taught the history of their country, its empire, its Nobel Prizes and its comedic culture? Would they be taught to the maximum of the individual abilities? Would they have to write decent grammatical English? Would they learn any other languages at all?
No, of course not! Rather than respond to a British electorate that had dramatically punished C21 Labour for its lack of aspiration, elitism, eugenicism, patriotism, racism and realism, the conferencers just played the tapes of the past -- demanding smaller class sizes (known by 1970 to have no effect), more teacher training (in half-*rsed sociology), and school heads to be powerless (with their teachers’ annually incremented pay fixed by the unions).
EAST-ASIANS FREED TO THRIVE
Upsetting leftist illusions of Whites keeping down ‘minorities’ and needing to be made to supply ‘affirmative action’, California’s Asians zoomed to score in universities as quotas were withdrawn. California was the first US state to ban the use of race and ethnicity in public university admissions. However, once affirmative action was banned (by Proposition 209), Asian American students quickly dominated entrants. At UC Berkeley, for example, 46% of those admitted into the 2012 freshman class were Asian; 30% were White.
{Taken from ‘Facts about Race and Racism’ – a mainly leftist/environmentatlist/postmodernist document, but containing the occasional admission.}
{Harvard was also to face a legal challenge to its pursuit of racial diversity – from one Edward Blum who had given due notice that he would seek to end the university’s unfairness to White applicants.}
SELF-STARTING PEECEE
After bespectacled Oxbridge-produced Nobelist, Sir Tim Hunt FRS, 72, a biochemist, infuriated a hefty Black female, a teacher of journalism, at a ‘Women in Science’ lunch sponsored by Korean female scientists by jocularly professing routine “chauvinism” and quipping that mixed-sex laboratories had their occasional problems with love affairs and tears, he was moved to apologize and resign his honorary professorship (Guardian, 11 vi) even though his gutless university, UCL, had declined to confront him or his post-prandial remarks (instead muttering to his wife in a phone call that he would “have to resign”).
{Yes, PeeCee had become a religion in which offenders, however eminent, were in haste to admit guilt and submit without argument to casually suggested self-punishment. Sir Tim – married to an eminent scientist (herself an immunology professor at UCL) – would have to settle for the consolation that he was not alone in being called to genuflect to still-prevailing feminazism, anti-racism and paedohysteria if he wanted to enjoy quiet lunches and chats with colleagues.
As he resigned from everything he could think of, he said “I have become toxic and so am finished” (Observer, 14 vi). At least his science would anyhow win through -- just as the work of imprisoned paedophile Nobelist Daniel Gajdusek continued posthumously to inspire successful work in Papua New Guinea on brain rot by Ghanaian geneticist Emmanuel Asante (D.Telegraph, 11 vi) even as Esther Rantzen was being made a Dame for her services to the terrorists of the child abuse industry.}
WHITE MAN’S BURDEN
As a thousand A/As floated into Europe daily (or were brought in without charge by HMS Bulwark) and another half-million waited in the ungoverned demakrazic Libya (of Western fabrication) for their chance to cross the Med to EU paradise, Australia’s top Queensman and Prime Minister, Tony Abbott declined to deny that he would bribe people-smugglers to steer away from Oz and had already been paying £30K for each boat intercepted and steered back to Indonesia (Guardian, 12 vi).
(The Workers’ own Paradise had long paid for the prison islands of Manus and Nauru as places where it could dump unwanted aspiring migrants; but apparently the islands were full up or getting too much press attention.)
Interesting questions arose for case-seeking lawyers as to whether Australia bribes would put the country in violation of its international agreements to accept refugees; and for economists as to whether the bribes would only increase refugee traffic. But Abbott said he would “do what it takes” to stop the boats so long as it was “decent”; and he could take credit for recognizing that Whites were going to have to re-imperialize the world and pay local governments to police it (if perhaps getting in return the cheap military labour that Russia enjoyed from the –stans). And an Indonesian boat captain insisted he had only been given his £30k on condition he engage in no more people smuggling.
MULTICULTI MAYHEM
The anxieties felt by peecee-indoctrinated and –terrorized Whites about crossing the colour bar and making the slightest criticism of any Black turned out to be in short supply among Pakistani youth in multiculti Bradford. There, when a Black supply teacher (liked by his neighbours in nearby Leeds) asked a 14-yr Asian pupil to hand in at the start of a lesson the mobile phone with which the boy was constantly playing, a knife was drawn, the teacher stabbed and hospitalized, and the boy charged by police with attempted murder (D.Telegraph, 12 vi).
HOMES FIT FOR ‘TRAVELLERS’
As the UK’s new ‘Conservative’ Government took over, it turned out that England’s local authorities had been advised to make annual increases of 3% in their housing stock so as to accommodate gypsies/travellers – no matter that these groups could reasonably have been expected to be riding their horses/lorries along country lanes with their caravans in tow until their thieving ooops handimanship produced enough cash for a deposit on a house.
Nor was the idiocy mandated by the EU: no, it came simply from the pre-crash days of the Blair/Brown Labour Government. Thankfully the Conservatives would modify the advice – but only by feebly making 3% a ‘guideline’, and still persisting with the hilarious stipulation that council-home-seeking g/t’s should “prove” themselves to be ‘travellers’ (D.Telegraph, 13 vi).

TESTOSTERONE FOR TREACHERY
As Switzerland’s Joseph Blatter awaited questioning (along with seventeen of his arrested staff) from the FBI about corruption under his 20-yr presidency at FIFA, and had to endure being called a “megalomaniac” who had no friends because he “eliminated” all competition (Sunday Times, 31 v), a study at his own alma mater, the University of Lausanne, found that students who ratted on agreements which they had made as to how largesse should be partialled out among others were those who had the higher levels of testosterone (Sunday Mail, 31 v, ‘[The] science behind corruption and power’).
This confirmation of a link between cheating and male sex hormone fitted Bletther well, for across his 79-yr life of three marriages he had been notably popular, and indeed frisky with the ladies -- not least those much younger than himself, like the Russian supermodel girlfriend of star footieman Cristiano Ronaldo (said Spain’s respected El Mundo).
PEECEE TO MADHOUSE
Ever more ludicrous in its proposals for tyranny, PeeCee began to demand not just that no-one (especially in the ‘safe place’ shrines of luniversities) should say (let alone write) anything racist, sexist, homophobic etc, but that no words or conduct should even trigger unhappy racist etc thoughts or memories in students (aka helpless victims of patriarchy). Columnist Amanda Foreman explained (Sunday Times, 31 v, ‘Here’s a trigger warning for all campus censors: I shall fight you’):
"....Suddenly, thousands of (mostly female) students [in America] have become so sensitive to the written word that any unexpected exposure could trigger post-traumatic stress disorder.
The only remedy, so they claim, is to have all course syllabuses either scrubbed of uncomfortable content or else clearly marked and segregated by the appropriate trigger warnings. A professor may have the option of not presenting the objectionable material, allowing students to absent themselves from that part of the course, or flagging the work for its depictions of rape, misogyny, racism, homophobia and violence.
Only last month, the student-led Multicultural Affairs Advisory Board at Columbia University, New York, warned against the harm caused by such works as Ovid’s Metamorphoses because “like so many texts in the western canon, it contains triggering and offensive material that marginalises student identities in the classroom.”
Yes, not content with closing down the dreaded –isms and with maximally covering from view the female body (preparing for life under Islam....), peecee hysterics were moving on to spare students from being even faintly reminded of naughtiness – let alone from actually understanding the naughty realities of life against which they frothed in vain.
SELECTION BY BRAWN
As Britons pondered why Germany’s Milkmaid Merkel was so keen for Europe to accept A/A ‘refugee’ migrants, the only sensible answer seemed to be that – what with her country’s non-replacement birthrate (the lowest in the world) -- she wanted to get the brightest, healthiest and most motivated A/As before the people and even politicos of a Europe cowed by muticulti neoMarxism managed to raise the drawbridge; but, if this was the policy, it was certainly complemented if not overshadowed by selection for brawn, bravado and criminality.
At Calais, where A/As daily terrified British drivers with their reckless efforts to get into cars and lorries in hope of reaching Britopia, there were nightly fights, sometimes lasting hours, between gangs of Blacks, pitting e.g. Sudanese young males against Eritreans and resulting in dozens requiring medical attention and hospitalization (D.Mail, 1 vi).
{Yes – and in five years time such fighting would become commonplace in Britain at schools, surgeries and benefit offices as the successful immigrants continued to exercise their selected talents.}
Only the brawn of an English 70-yr-old stopped six illegals in their tracks: seeing six stowaways dismounting from the back of a lorry in Bedfordshire, the pensioner managed to detain one of them and give two others a hard time so, by the time the group broke up, police had reached the scene. All six A/As were arrested (D.Telegraph, 1 vi).
MULTICULTURALISM MUZZLED
Although the West professed multiculturalism – and had even messed up the Middle East by assuming that Jews, Shi’ites and Sunnis could live together (with only Christians driven out) – its Kurdish ally (against the sadists of Solunni Isis/Isil/Daesh) did not care for this batty pseudo-internationalism and turned out to have been razing and pillaging scores of Isis villages in northern Syria.
The Times (1 vi, p1) said this appeared to be “a campaign of ethnic cleansing against Sunni Arabs” and added “More than 10,000 people are thought to have fled in the past six months, as neighbours who had lived together for decades turned against each other.”
{The ethnicity of the Kurds themselves involved an eclectic mix of Sunni, Shi’ite and Sufi traditions – including a 14th-century reformulation of Mohammedanism -- and acceptance of many Western practices such as egalitarianism and mixed-sex dancing. Kurds saw themselves as most similar to their relatively westernized Iranian neighbours.}
ENVIRONMENTALISTS AT A LOSS
As Britain mourned the death at 55 from an alcohol-induced haemorrhage of top redhead politico Charles Kennedy who had led the Liberal Democrats relatively successfully for ten years, the environmentalism of MSM laboured to provide any convincing explanation.
CK had been an early success at Glasgow University (where he was later voted Rector for six years) and become the UK’s youngest MP at 23; he had a regular slot as a funny man (along with the Conservatives’ Julian Critchley and Labour’s Austin Mitchell) on BBCR4; he was a considerable and much-admired orator; he was hugely popular, not least for his kind attentiveness to others; and, after his wife (and mother of his son) died in 2007, he soon found love and consolation and valued help in the arms of another.
So what could have gone wrong? Of course, unmentioned by MSM (and all but one of the scores who phoned in to ‘Any Answers’, 6 vi, 14:10) was the substantial .4 heritability of alcoholism (e.g. Ask.com, 2015) – a figure that was still higher for men, for early problem drinkers, for heavy drinkers, for drinkers who succumbed to sedation, and doubtless for Celts.
“MULTICULTI ENDING”
Hungary’s Prime Minister – harried by far-right groups – took a new step towards realism (Reuters, 3 vi). The era of multiculturalism is over and Hungary should be spared its effects at all costs, he said. In comments that appeared to toughen his already uncompromising stance on immigration, Viktor Orban was quoted as telling a Hungarian newspaper there should be no “mass-scale” mixing of different creeds.
“Multiculturalism means the coexistence of Islam, Asian religions and Christianity. We will do everything to spare Hungary from that,” he said in an interview with the daily newspaper Napi Gazdasag. “We welcome non-Christian investors, artists, scientists; but we don’t want to mix on a mass scale.”
Orban, whose governing Fidesz party was losing ground in the polls to the far-right, anti-immigrant Jobbik party, had clashed with European counterparts over his isolationist views. At the European Parliament in mid-May, he criticized as “bordering on insanity” EU proposals for migrant quotas drafted in response to thousands of deaths among asylum-seekers trying to reach Europe across the Mediterranean in increasing numbers.
{And would England’s Labour Party draw inspiration from the ‘nationalism’ of Hungary – adding to the message sent it at the UK’s General Election by the Celts of north-west Scotland? Would Labour be able to rise from the ignominy of its defeat to shake off the pseudo-intellectual internationalism of PeeCee and defend the interests of workers and taxpayers against those of parasitical owners and idealists?
Sadly – except as just reward for its years of multicult illusion – Labour had lost its star Eurosceptic, Douglas Alexander, 45, booted out of Glasgow Paisley in the great SNP surge; and luminary half-realists Frank Field, Kate Hoey and Austin Mitchell were 65+. But ‘cometh the hour, cometh the man’ – perhaps in this case John Mann MP, 55 and with no doubt that bankers and career politicians were not the way to a ‘brilliant Britain’ of cohesive communities in which benefits would be paid only after five years of contributions.}
FUN! FUN! FUN!
Times might have seemed hard for Britain’s “armed” services, with no aircraft to fly from their anyhow uncompleted carrier and no strategy for helping Iran and Syria stop the rampaging Solunni Isisadists of Eyeraq; but at least there was enough cash for Eurokrautish din-dins in Bavaria from where the assembled junketers could cheer on HMS Bulwark as – together with ten other EU-mandated ships -- she went busily to and fro between Libya and Italy bringing the culinary and prostitutional skills of the Muslim/Negro world to serve the suicidally short-sighted slavemasters of the West until the invaders had mastered the ways of iPod/iPad/yourFace/myTube and the benefit system and were thus ready to take over.
Half a million A/As were queuing up in Libya for the ride (for which they would sink their own boats as soon as Bulwark spotted them). An Observer correspondent explained (7 vi):
"Many Guardian readers would love to have [a further] half a million economic refugees planning on reaching our shores from Indonesia. Just imagine the thrill they'd get helping them get their government housing, filling in their welfare forms, finding new government services they can apply for. The satisfaction of their white man's burden complex would leave them in euphoria for years."

BLACKS AS ‘PREJUDICED’ AS WHITES
Blacks and Latinos are just as likely to believe in the greater criminality of Blacks, and to take suitable evasive action. This was the conclusion of research at South Florida University in response to the question ‘Why do White cops shoot so many Blacks?’ (BBC World Service, 24 v, 14:15). Participants repeatedly had flashed before them images of a man, sometimes White and sometimes Black, apparently carrying either a gun or a box of similar size. They were instructed to press as quickly as possible one of two buttons, one marked ‘SHOOT!’ and the other marked ‘DON’T SHOOT!’ It was found that subjects of all three racial groups were more likely to ‘shoot’ when the pictured man was Black – as if they were responding not with irrational, race-based prejudice, but simply in accordance with the reality well known to all Americans that Blacks were three times as likely as Whites to commit crimes.
MULTICULTI ENDING
As the Iraqi Army – which had run away from Islamic State (IS etc.) at Ramadi -- was denounced by America’s Secretary of State for Defense as “lacking the will to fight”, it was pretty clear that the multicultural illusions of the West had been cruelly exposed. After twelve years of America and its allies sacrificing blood and treasure to topple Saddam Insane, settle the Middle East and even to bring on an Arab Spring (including demakrazy and wymmin’s rights), the West found it had not even been able to provide Iraq with a functioning army and would have to take a back seat as Solunni vs Shitite hostility came centre stage, with only Israel and Russia likely to provide a semblance of order.
{However, Iraqi authorities insisted they would take back Ramadi “within three days”....}
BUDDHISTS FOR BIRTH CONTROL – BY MUSLIMS
As Burma’s Muslim Rohingyas (considered to be Bangladeshis by the authorities in Burma/Myanmar) continued to try to sail to neighbouring countries for refuge from what they considered Buddhist persecution, the Burmese government passed legislation allowing it to set up “health zones” in which women would be encouraged, instructed and even forced to space their offspring so they had no more than one child in three years (Guardian, 25 v).
Whether compulsory sterilization or abortion would be involved was not stated; but protests were anyhow forthcoming from UN bodies and the USA, worried that ‘ethnic cleansing’ of the Rohingya would be practised.
{Certainly the Buddhists had something to worry about: the Rohingya birth rate was markedly higher than that of Buddhists; some imams urged their Muslim women to breed as fast as possible, stopping only when they died; and Bangladeshis had themselves in forty years reduced the Buddhist (and Hindu) minority among them from 29% to 9%. A Buddhist community leader said the country was under threat from global Islam (Sunday Times, 24 v): “Britain has allowed Muslims to settle in London, and now you have people going to fight for Isis.”
Other legislation passed at the same time in Burma would impose restrictions on religious conversion and inter-religious marriage and prohibit extra-marital affairs, so it did appear that the authorities – afraid of Buddhists being overwhelmed -- sought substantial separation of the two ethnic groups.}
{Bangladeshi/Bengali proclivity to fraudulence was illustrated for Brits as London police began arresting hundreds of Bangladeshis who – though they had found refuge in Italy – had got in the habit of flying into Britain for a day to rip off sometimes £9K in housing benefit from obliging officials (often themselves Pakistani Muslims).
All the fraudsters needed to do, apparently, was to get themselves a National Insurance number from a Job Centre and make up a false address – one such address had been used in a year by no less than 400 Banglas (D.Mail, 25 v).}
BOYS PREFER BRAINS (AND BUTTS) TO BUSTS AND PINS
Men look for big brains rather than big boobs when hunting for a life partner, a Cambridge professor claimed at the 2015 Hay-on-Wye Book Festival. “Despite large breasts and long legs often being cited as the ultimate markers of female attractiveness, it seems that a high IQ could be the more reliable way for women to hook a long-term partner,” said the London Evening Standard (25 v).
Professor David Bainbridge, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Cambridge, claimed men who are keen to start a family are more likely to be drawn to an intelligent woman because they instinctively believe she will be a better mother to his children, the Daily Telegraph reported.
The prof said “surveys have shown time and again” that brains are thought more attractive by would-be fathers -- though he placed no stress on brainy women passing on high IQ by genetic inheritance to their children. Disdaining traditional belief in the desirability of bust size, Bainbridge maintained it was the symmetry of breast size that was preferred, and symmetry (an indicator of health) was apparently greater in big-breasted girls.
He also played down the attractiveness of ‘endless legs,’ though he did admit voluptuous thighs and a low waist-hip ratio as being valued – they presumably indicated fat storage and non-pregnancy.
POUNDS PAID FOR PEECEE POLICE PERSECUTION
An evangelical street preacher was awarded £2,500 and legal costs after being confined in a cell by cops for eleven hours in response to a lesbian complaining of him being ‘homophobic’ (Daily Mail, 28 v). Fortunately for red-haired South African-born Rob Hughes, 38, he had taped a recording of his talk in Basildon, Essex. Once a solicitor persuaded police to listen, they agreed he had not actually mentioned homosexuality or said anything offensive but just criticized the ‘destruction of marriage’ by the government (as it had brought in yag ‘marriage’ in 2013).
So peecee tyranny was rebuffed – though Britain’s politicos, professors and paparazzi would themselves doubtless need more than £2,500 as compensation for a day of inconvenience, anxiety and ignominy; and a bill paid by the public was perhaps not the best way to impress police to look at evidence and to be as suspicious of PeeCee as of preachers.
One Mail correspondent wrote: “Back to the 15th century . . . . . what a petty tyranny this country is becoming! Pretty soon there'll be an unofficial "underground" to fight the Thought Police on the streets. Sign me up!”
{Heaven knows what hysterics the lesbos and the filth would have thrown if, after the Éirish referendum approving queer marriage, they had heard the highest-ranking Vatican official, Pietro Parolin, denounce the vote as “a defeat for humanity”!}
MULTICULT RACKET RUMBLED
The man who had made most money out of multiculturalism found himself and his senior officials on the receiving end of attention from America’s FBI. International footie organizer Slippery Swiss Joseph ‘Sepp’ Blatter had spent years giving FIFA membership and votes to African, Caribbean and other ‘developing’ countries that barely sported a soccer team (Guardian, 29 v + ‘FIFA is so corrupt....’).
Notoriously, with his A/A votes to keep him in place, he had for cash brought staging of the World Cup to such unlikely venues as South Africa [world rape capital], Qatar [temperature 100ᵒC in summer; no alcohol] and Moscow [tweaking Western noses in Uraine], allegedly in return for multi-million-dollar kickbacks. Now he was hauled before the court of world opinion as seven of his top minions were arrested in Switzerland in response to an FBI demand; and he himself dared not visit the USA for fear of being given a 100-yr prison sentence.
Faced with this disaster, Blether insisted that neither he nor his lieutenants could be held responsible for the vast and ongoing corruption at FIFA; and indeed that his continuance in office was necessary more than ever to correct the racketeering that had been exposed. He expected that his assemblage of non-soccer-playing money-grubbing multicults would re-elect him president of FIFA -- which they did rather than risk their income stream.
‘IQ’ RISE REMAINS MYSTERIOUS
Rises in scores on intelligence tests through the 20th century [the ‘Flynn/Lynn Effect’ that became known around 1990 – though actually first noticed by Tuddenham in 1948] were confirmed in research led from Vienna (Wall Street Journal, 27 v). Gains across 1909–2013, based on 271 independent samples, totalling almost 4 million participants, from 31 countries, were around 3 IQ-type points per decade.
However, while the authors were happy to join the chorus of those chortling that such an effect could only indicate some importance for environmental factors and give hope that Black IQ might one day rise, the new data contained many peculiar features (as noticed by Rushton [1999] in previous studies).
The Vienna authors found their rise to be greater in adults, to be jerky over time and to tail off after 1970; and, for explanations, they felt obliged to resort to speculation about “life history speed” and “social multiplier effects.” Altogether, it looked wiser to posit increasing test sophistication – though not for adults during wartime, and requiring self-monitoring and self-control that Blacks recalcitrantly lacked (TgF, Chapter 4).
FREEDOM VENERATOR ELEVATED
As Oxford University appointed its first vice-chancellorette, redheaded terrorism expert Louise Richardson, 57 and v-c at St Andrews University from 2008, it turned out that the lively and boyish mother of three had made a remarkable lifetime transition from an RC family and education in southern Éire and adolescent enthusiasm for the IRA, via Trinity College Dublin, UCLA, Harvard and Radcliffe to marrying a ‘Boston Brahmin’ GP who could trace his own ancestry back to the Mayflower and who had no problem with her career move to Britain’s traditionally most Tory institutions so long as she re-appeared in the couple’s Cambridge (Massachusetts) home once a month.
Given that history of dramatic personal change, it was perhaps unsurprising that Professor Richardson was a firm defender of free speech who, as she dealt with ScotNastyonalist attempts during the 2014 referendum to silence her own and other academics’ support for the Union, was recorded drawing attention to St Andrews’ motto
Stamping on the attempted silencing of a faculty member in the referendum debate, she said, “whether or not my personal views are in accord with yours, I assure you that any external pressure to limit or suppress debate will stop at my door”. She pointed to an ancient inscription over a university gate that, she says, “is a useful and timeless reminder of the university’s commitment to free speech: ‘They have said and they will say. Let them be saying’.”
Equally unsurprising, LR had and was prepared to express a healthy belief in intelligence, telling the Irish Times (13 ix 2014) “....we should be investing in smart people to think about the future....” Her promotion to Oxford would be a loss to Scottish academia, where few were so robust, said the Telegraph’s Scotland editor, Alan Cochrane (30 v 2015).
