BLAIR BLASTED

-- No, not Princess Blair -- `him'self busy as a Catholic convert solving the problems of Israel vs Mueslis and lecturing to American students on multi-faith reconciliation! No, London top cop Sir Ian Blair of the Met, according to the Speccie's venerable Charles Moore:

It was such good news, last week, that Boris Johnson had nudged Sir Ian Blair towards the door. But one's pleasure is pretty much spoilt by the Mayor's associated decision to order an inquiry into racism in the Metropolitan Police. Boris, like Sir Ian, could be devoured by the monster that he is feeding. The first rule of ordering an inquiry is that one should ensure that it will provide the answer one wants. This one is being conducted by a member of the Metropolitan Police Authority with a Labour background, Cindy Butts. Will her answer help? Besides, it is outrageous that any attention is paid to the Black Police Association. By telling ethnic minorities not to apply for jobs in the Met, they have proved themselves unfit for their own. Why, anyway, is there a Black Police Officers Association at all? Thanks to Sir William Macpherson's unfair report on the death of Stephen Lawrence, the police now labour under the accusation that they are `institutionally racist'. What could be more institutionally racist than an association of police officers whose membership is based on race?

AMERICANS MOVE TOWARDS REJECTING PEECEE MULTICULTURALISM

As America struggled with its idealism-inspired and Clinton-inaugurated houseprice boom, bust and `credit crunch' and the prospect of an Obama victory in November yielding Black demands for reparations for slavery and yet more affirmative racism, the Los Angeles Times (10 x) said surveys showed one American in five to want to break away from the Union - as for seven years had husband Todd of Republican V-P `hockey mom' candidate Sarah Palin, maintaining for those years his membership of the Alaska Independence Party. {Perhaps the Los Angeles Times was coming round? - On 3 x the newspaper had given Ian Buruma houseroom to explain that the poll victory of the `far right' parties of Austria should not be interpreted as heralding either Nazism or even anti-democratic moves.} {An amusing feature - though not to multicultis - of mulatto Obama was that he had himself actually renounced his personal multicultural heritage in adolescence and sought to become as fully `Black' as possible. "With his new all-black identity," wrote Phyllis Schlafly (TownHall, 7 x), "Obama [whose favourite writer became Malcolm X] [thus] stews about injustices that he never personally experienced and feeds his warped worldview by withdrawing into a "smaller and smaller coil of rage." He lives with a "nightmare vision" of black powerlessness."}


SATIRISTS SURFACE

The Heretical Anti-PeeCee Humorous Two, Simon Sheppard and Stephen Whittle (see above), managed to get a mention in the Spectator's Diary, written 11 x by Jewish M.P. Denis McShane (and thus in Wall Street Tools' iStockAnalyst) - but mentioning only the pair's references to multicult-inventing "kike vermin" and plea against extradition from the U.S., not their plea for political asylum from tyrannous U.K. or their pre-internment weekly readership of thousands.


PEECEE SLAPPED DOWN

In an all-too-rare victory for common sense, the American Supreme Court declined to award $400,000 to a swarthy Portuguese man who had been thrown off an American internal flight following his behaving aggressively with stewards (he had demanded a gangway seat) and becoming deemed a possible Middle Eastern terrorist (Christian Science Monitor, 7 x). As one AmRen correspondent observed: "If you have dark hair and dark skin don't act like a jerk on airplanes. Simple as that."


JOYS OF DIVERSITY

A Nigerian-born businessman convicted of smuggling a 14-year-old girl into the United States and forcing her (with his wife's encouragement) to work as an unpaid servant, to remain unschooled and to have sex with him (once she was 15) at his home in Germantown was sentenced to more than eight years in prison (Washington Post, 8 x).


MAGIC! -- BRITAIN TO BE SPARED TIDAL WAVE OF BANTUS..

As the Daily Express revealed the European Union to be planning bring a million Africans per year to the E.U. till 2050 (11 x), Labour's immigration minister Phil Woolas started talking about keeping British immigration to zero and the Home Office insisted none of the said Africans would not be able to come to Britain (which was not part of the E.U.'s `Schengen' zone..). {Meanwhile the French were building another camp near Calais to help the hundreds of Black arrivals in France monthlhy who aimed to reach Britain hiding in lorries using the Channel Tunnel.} {Faced with yowls from Britain's race relations industry, Labour goon Woolas soon backed down (Sun, 20 x, `Migrants limit branded `stunt'').}


INDIE BACKS SUB-PRIMING AS CAUSE OF CREDIT CRUNCH

As world stock markets crashed (London FTSE below 4000) one of those who saw an explanation for the decade-long house-price boom and eventual bust in the politically correct idealism of Suckmacack Clinton and Rev. Dubya (see September) and their enforcement of Pres. Jimmy Carter's 1977 Credit Reinvestment Act (CRA) was the senior British political columnist Bruce Anderson who, as well as blaming the poor regulation of British lending under the Bank of England-free mechanism set up by Grumpy Gordon Brown (trying to retain some Treasury control after putting the Bank in control of the inflation rate), and the excessive greed of financiers, also blamed the "excessive benevolence" of American lending to Black and other NINJAS (Independent [London], 13 x).

In America, the head of the `National Urban League,' mulatto Marc Morial, long an allegedly corrupt Mayor of New Orleans, had already started yowling to Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. that the crunch and crash link to excess lending to minorities must be denied (Washington Post, 3 x). And Boston's Rep. Barney Frank, 68 (a "left-handed gay Jew," as he called himself, and longstanding advocate of `civil liberties'), had said (AP, 6 x) that Republican criticism of Democrats over the nation's housing crisis was "a veiled attack on the poor that's racially motivated." But Steve Sailer was sticking to his guns (12 x): "Raising minority home ownership rates provided a politically correct excuse for what many of the insiders wanted to do all along: debauch credit standards and get rich quick. .. Barack Obama, for example, sued Citicorp to lend more in black neighborhoods. ACORN (Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now) put pressure on banks wanting to merge to lend more to minorities. .. Getting rid of downpayments is like the getting rid of the SAT in college admissions. It evens out disparate impact. Thus the amount of mortgage money for home purchases going to Hispanics almost octupled from 1999-2006 and almost sextupled for blacks. Asians, who are more prudent, only got triple, while whites only got double."

Edinburgh's Student reported that the crash was due to "the gradual realization that most of the [infamous debt packages, for `selling on] were based around mortgages given to people who should never have been offered deals in the first place, for the simple reason that they couldn't pay" (James Ellingworth, `Blame the players, not the game,' 14 x); and BBC's `Newsnight' including a banking expert who similarly blamed the initital subprime lending - while equally not mentioning that the lending (which began the inflation of house prices) had especially been to Blacks and Hispanics (who often proved incompetent borrowers, resulting in the house price slump and desecuritization of loans).

{For good measure, I emailed this article to Governor Sarah Palin.}


AMERICAN RACE WAR LOOMS

As OSambomania mounted in peecee-whipped U.S.A. and Blacks got terminally cocky, a suburban (Long Island) New York correspondent, a top journalist, wrote:

Driving my son to his football practice, the shortest route is through the local 'hood. A few weeks ago, a young black guy was walking towards us on the side of the (not very wide, suburban) street. He was way out from the sidewalk. As we approached, he pointedly did not move aside. I had to detour to the left around him, as he glared daggers at us. My son (13): "Why was he looking at us like that?" Me: "Because he hates us, son." The kid might as well learn. How many of them hate us like that? 30 percent? 60? 90? I wonder a lot.

NATIONAL REVIEW SAYS OBAMA FUNDED AFROCENTRIC LOONS

Evidence came from columnist Stanley Kurtz that Obama had not only associated with Black extremists in the 1990's but had also worked to channel funds to them (14 x):

However he may seek to deny it, all evidence points to the fact that, from his position as board chair of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, Barack Obama knowingly and persistently funded an educational project that shared the extremist and anti-American philosophy of Jeremiah Wright. The Wright affair was no fluke. It's time for McCain to say so.

BRAVE `RACIST' JAILED FOR 25 YEARS BY PEECEE BRITAIN

Black Watch soldier Michael Ross, 29, had won a medal for his bravery as a sniper in Iraq; but such was the true gratitude of his wretched country that he ended up being jailed (after a majority verdict following a trial that lasted six weeks) for at least 25 years for killing a Bangladeshi waiter 14 years previously, in 1994 in Orkney (Guardian, 17 x; AP, 17 x; ITV, 17 x). No precise reasons for the killing, the delay in prosecution or the final swingeing Glasgow High Court sentence (separating Ross from his wife and children) were available to or demanded by Britain's pliant media.


COMMENTARY BUYS `BLACK BONANZA TO CREDIT CRUNCH' (BB2CC) STORY

That the 2008 credit crunch was more attributable to politicians than to lack of market regulation, and attributable partly to idealistic minority-backing politicians in particular, was explained fully in the distinguished liberal/neoconservative secular Jewish magazine Commentary [New York] by economic historian John Steele Gordon (17 x). E.g.:

..in 1995, regulations adopted by the Clinton administration took the Community Reinvestment Act to a new level. Instead of forbidding banks to discriminate against blacks and black neighborhoods, the new regulations positively forced banks to seek out such customers and areas. Without saying so, the revised law established quotas for loans to specific neighborhoods, specific income classes, and specific races. It also encouraged community groups to monitor compliance and allowed them to receive fees for marketing loans to target groups.

One of many AmRen correspondents got the idea earlier (15 x):

McCain needs to point out that [the cause of the credit crunch] was the subprime loans demanded by Democrats, not the risk-spreading financial derivatives created by Republican deregulation, that caused this financial crisis, or he is going to continue to slide in the polls against Obama, who is gaining ground by claiming the opposite and false notion.

The cause of the financial crisis was subprime loans. Deregulation enabled derivatives were merely an attempt to spread that Democrat-demanded risk assumed by lenders. Yet now Obama is trying to blame the Republicans and lenders, and it's all a lie. Place the blame on Democrat-demanded subprime lending, where it belongs.

A full and helpful account of the subprime crisis was available at Wikipedia - with proper attribution of the problem to `risky loans' to `low income borrowers,' thought without mention of the special involvement of Blacks and Hispanics who did not keep up repayments (especially as prices and interest rates rose and refinancing of loans could not be afforded). Even the leftist Newsweek, which wanted to avoid indicting Suckmacock Clinton, admitted (7 x) "Banks that sought to meet CRA requirements by indiscriminately doling out loans to minorities may have been part of the problem." And, after all, it was the New York Times which recorded, in 1999, "Fannie Mae, the nation's biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people and felt pressure from stock holders to maintain its phenomenal growth in profits." Citizen Economists added (19 x): "The Republican embrace of Bush's "Ownership Society," itself an outgrowth of the Carter and Clinton years and the CRA, was taken to extremes never imagined by the authors of the original legislation."


MORONICAN MAD MULTICULTURAL MAYHEM MOCKED

Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez, who described capitalism as `evil,' ridiculed the U.S.A.'s Rev. Pres. Dubya Bush for his plan to buy stocks in American banks despite Bush's previous widespread criticism of Venezuelan nationalisations. "Bush is to the left of me now," Mr Chavez told an audience at a debate on the benefits of socialism. "Comrade Bush announced he will buy shares in private banks." Chavez, who had insulted Dubya in the past as a drunkard or the devil, accused him of parroting the words of his aides without understanding the new policies that relied on heavy state intervention."I am convinced he has got no idea what's going on," said Mr Chavez, who had nationalised large parts of the Venezuelan economy since 2000 and was in negotiations to take over a Spanish bank.


JOYS OF YAGGERY

Iconic homosexual chef Anthony Morley, 36, `Mr Gay U.K.' of 1993, was found guilty at Leeds Crown Court of murdering his pal Damien Oldfield, 33, after an argument, then cooking some of Oldfield's body parts in olive oil and herbs and tasting some of the cooked flesh before police arrived.


MULTICULTI LALALAND

Following the (unresolved) killing of a Hindu religious leader in Orissa Province, India, mobs went on the rampage, killing 60 Christians, injuring and raping many (including a nun - who was gang-raped), and forcing 50,000 to flee their homes (Observer, 19 x, `Convert or we will kill you').


PEECEE CUTS COMEDY

One of Britain's top female comedians, Jennifer Saunders (often partnered over 30 years with Dawn French) announced she would make no more TV programmes in Britain. She explained that prime time comic shows which once had eight million viewers had by 2008 only three million; and said "political correctness - that's the biggest killer of comedy" (Sunday Telegraph, 19 x).

DEMOCRATS STOKE U.S. RACE WAR AS BANKS CRASH FROM POLITICIAN-DEMANDED UNSECURED LENDING TO MINORITIES AS PART OF FORCED MULTICULTURALISM

As politicians in Washington wrestled to prevent meltdown of America's banks, while avoiding blaming the politicians who had caused bankers to over-lend to `sub-prime' Blacks, Hispanics and Mexican illegals* and thus over-stimulated house prices, an astonishingly inflammatory attack on the U.S. Republicans' vice-presidential nominee was reported by CNN (25 ix):

"Rep. Alcee Hastings told an audience of Jewish Democrats that they should be wary of Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin because "anybody toting guns and stripping moose don't care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks." "If Sarah Palin isn't enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention," Rep. Alcee Hastings of Florida said at a panel about the shared agenda of Jewish and African-American Democrats."
|
{That such far-out sentiments should surface was not surprising to those who knew that both `community organizer' Osambo and `feminist' Hitlery, the leaders of the 2008 Democrats, both drew their inspiration from Chicago Jewish left-loon agitator Saul Alinsky (1909-71) (American Thinker, 26 ix).}

* In 2005, the Washington Post had noted: "Hispanics, the nation's fastest-growing major ethnic or racial group, have been courted aggressively by real estate agents, mortgage brokers and programs for first-time buyers that offer help with closing costs. Ads proclaim: "Sin verificacion de ingresos! Sin verificacion de documento!"-which loosely translates as, `Income tax forms are not required, nor are immigration papers.'"

In 2008, TownHall recorded (24 ix): "Thanks to lax Bush administration-approved policies allowing illegal aliens to use "matricula consular cards" and taxpayer identification numbers to open bank accounts, more forms of mortgage fraud have burgeoned. Moneylenders still have no access to a verification system to check Social Security numbers before approving loans."

An AmRen correspondent wrote: "This financial meltdown had its origins in a push to give home loans to people who had no down payments, bad credit, and an inability or unwillingness to pay. Considerable effort has been expended by many experts laying out the precise chronology of just how this debacle escalated, and you've got to understand that without the pressure applied by Clinton and others, including Reno, Barney Frank, Andrew Cuomo, et al, there would be no sub-prime mortgages to package and sell as investments. Only the leftist radicals are denying this, but they too will shut up once the diversity scheme has been exposed further."

Another AmRen correspondent said: "Among national-profile politicians, Jack Kemp (R) and Barney Frank (D) have been the biggest villains in all this. Each for a good two decades or more, they relentlessly pushed programs to promote "affordable" housing - that is, homes carrying low-money-down financing designed to make homeowners out of people with limited or poor credit. Guess what? Blacks and Hispanics are disproportionately represented among these homebuyers." Unsurprisingly, the Jewish Frank, Congressman for Boston, was foremost amongst those arguing for total nationalization of the US banks, with no penalties for wankers who had so enthusiastically gone along with peecee-multiculturalist stipulations to lend to `sub-primes.' (The near-sighted Kemp had grown up in the 95% Jewish community of West Los Angeles and had many Jewish sympathies - though his parents had sent him to the Church of Christ Scientist.)

Another AmRen correspondent asked: "If the government takes on all the bad loans; will it then handle them in the affirmative action manner? Minority loans will be forgiven, but whites will pay the full amount at a greatly increased interest rate to make up the difference. White people that pay their bills will be told to pay more in fees, interest and taxes or what??? These may be dumb questions; but based on government actions over the last 50 years; I cannot help but wonder."

Another: "The Clintonistas were the the source, but it was clearly unqualified individual minorities who were the willing recipients. No one forced them to sign on the dotted line. No one forced them to commit to a mortgage. They viewed mortgage loans as just one more type of entitlement and in a very real sense there were entitlements. Which brings me to [the] question of who will pay for these entitlements. [Certainly], it is overwhelmingly whites who will pay and they will pay in many different forms. They will pay by being hit with even higher state and federal taxes. They will pay by seeing their tax deferred savings accounts, mostly in the form of various mutual funds, loose value as the stocks that they represent take a dive, and they will also pay because the economic downturn which the sub-prime mortgage debacle is causing and will worsen will decrease their standard of living and possibly leave them unemployed with no savings but a social security check made out in nearly worthless dollars. Yet one more example of just how much of a wonderful thing our state sponsored "diversity" really is!"

I thus wrote to the Torygraph as follows:

To: The Editor; Daily Telegraph; London

From: Mr C. R. Brand [address and phone supplied]
27 ix 2008

Dear Editor,

In setting out the steps from 'toxic mortgages' to the likely part-nationalization of U.S. banking (Daily Telegraph, 27th September, pp.4-5) you arguably omitted one step. 'The first black President of the U.S.A.," as Bill Clinton called himself, had regulated tough penalties for banks that failed to provide 'affordable homes' for minorities;* President George W. Bush continued this encouragement of 'sub-prime mortgages' and even extended such help for people with no incomes, jobs or assets ('NINJAS') to Mexican illegal immigrants.** It was this which yielded the steady inflation of house prices on which both financiers and mortgagees came to gamble; but the sorry circumstances and lifestyles of the new lenders meant that many had to sell. The 2007/8 slump in the housing market was simply the eventual correction for the enforcement of multicultural optimism by politicians.

I am yours truly, -- Chris Brand.

* See Investor's Business Daily, 15 ix 2008. As your correspondent Colin Broughton noted (27th September, p.21), discrimatory (i.e. discriminating) lending according to race, marital status or religion was banned by Clinton's Equal Credit Opportunity Act. The subprime market share increased from less than 5 percent of all U.S. mortgage originations in 1994 to almost 13 percent in 1999.

** In 2008, TownHall recorded (19 ix; 24 ix): "Thanks to lax Bush administration-approved policies allowing illegal aliens to use "matricula consular cards" and taxpayer identification numbers to open bank accounts, more forms of mortgage fraud have burgeoned. Moneylenders still have no access to a verification system to check Social Security numbers before approving loans." Between them, the Clinton and Bush administrations increased U.S. home ownership (50% of it mortgageeship) by 5%. By 2005-2006, 49% of high-cost housing loans were taken by Afro-Americans and Hispanics. By 2006, subprime loans constituted 20% of all U.S. mortgage originations. Subprime lenders were eight times more likely to default than conventional lenders. By 2007 (the Wall Street Journal reported, 7 iii 2008), American homeowners owned in aggregate only 48% of the value of their properties - compared to 80% in 1945. In 2007/8, the areas suffering most foreclosures were overwhelmingly Black (in Detroit, Cleveland and Atlanta) or Hispanic (in Denver).

On the Telegraph's website (27 ix), correspondent Ian Moss concurred with Colin Broughton: "You don't think the banks would lend to wastrels willingly, do you? The banks were forced to lend to anyone with a pulse or face murdering fines and jail time. The pathetic childish Dumobrats and their welfare stupidities are always the cause of economic rot...Stealing from people who earn and handing to those who didn't is a criminal act which makes the Dumobrats a mafia gang...albeit a stupid one."

That America had gambled on its (mainly minority) underclass being able to take on (and pay back) multi-hundred-thousand-dollar debts regularly over years of conscientious travail (at what?) was deliciously exposed by the utterly brilliant Steve Sailer (VDare, 21 ix, 28 ix). Dubya (at the behest of his guru Karl Rove, determined that Dubya should get minority votes) had said at a 2002 White House conference: ""The goal is, everybody who wants to own a home has got [to get] a shot at doing so.

The problem is we have what we call a homeownership gap in America. Three-quarters of Anglos own their homes, and yet less than 50 percent of African Americans and Hispanics own homes. . So I've set this goal for the country. We want 5.5 million more homeowners by 2010- [a] million more minority homeowners by 2010. (Applause.) . " Before the 2004 U.S. election, Rove boasted:"[T]here are more people owning homes-particularly in the Hispanic and African-American communities-than ever before. This is a result of wise policies instituted at just the right time."

Steve added: "Most white pundits can't believe that minorities had an impact on the mortgage meltdown because they don't really grasp the number of minorities now in the country. After all, there aren't a lot of Hispanics at dinner parties in Georgetown and the Upper West Side. (At least, not sitting down.)" And he observed: "..the Bush jihad against traditional credit standards meant that not only more Hispanics and blacks could get loans they couldn't pay back-but more whites could, too."

And why did not fear control the financiers' greed? Steve again:

"It's now legally dangerous to express fear in writing. Imagine that an executive in a financial firm had sent an email to a fellow executive saying:

"I see that the median home price in California is heading toward a half million bucks. Isn't California full of Mexicans? How can a bunch of Mexicans afford to pay off half million dollar mortgages once the price of homes stops going up and they can't refinance anymore. Aren't we headed for disaster in California if we don't go back to traditional credit standards?"

An email like that would wind up in the hands of plaintiffs' attorneys during discovery in discrimination lawsuits. The author would be fired. The CEO would have to go apologize to the National Council of La Raza and promise to give a whole bunch more zero down payment loans to people whose names end in Z."

Though my letter did not apparently appear in the Torygraph, the point that the `credit crunch' had arisen from deluded multiculti politicians was evidently circulating in London and reaching the BBC's top rightish talking head, Melanie Phillips, who managed on `The Moral Maze' to blame Presidents Carter and Bush for having compelled what turned out to be the "ruinous" lending to subprime customers (BBC Radio 4, 1 x, 20:00-20:45).

Even the programme's leftist, comedian Will Self, seemed to take the point, asking whether it was not immoral for banks to have lent to "stupid" people quite unable to have serious awareness of the risks they were running. By 2 x, the story appeared as the lead article in the Spectator - where contributing editor Dennis Sewell attributed the 1994-1999 two-million rise in Black and Hispanic homeownership to Bill Clinton hiring an aggressive lesbian, Roberta Achtenberg (known previously for her successful campaign to save `gay' bathhouses in San Francisco) to bully American bankers out of their traditional caution by staging racial discrimination lawsuits against them.

Sewell's article immediately won the approval of conservative columnist and blogger Ian Dale (4 x) and Conservative M.P. for Wantage & Didcot, Ed Vaizey (4 x) who pointed out that the New York Times had foreseen the problem with subprime lending as far back as 1999 (30 ix 99, Steven A. Holmes). In the USA, the `liberal' Huffington Post was already caterwauling about `conservatives seek to shift blame for credit crisis' (1 x). Real Clear Markets, however, reported more on the Clintonista bullying of bankers (1 x) and AmRen commentators responded approvingly:

Our great-and-good will continue to insist that non-whites are just as credit-worthy as whites, despite all evidence to the contrary. Our economy, therefore, must quickly come to resemble sub-Saharan Africa's. Dont' buy gold, buy ammunition.

And:

Many of these good-for-nothing borrowers, when they abandoned their properties, took all the plumbing and electrical fixtures, windows, AC systems and anything else they could steal.. What's the old saying?..'The road to Hell is paved with good intentions'. It's so disgusting to see this country go down that road led by stupid liberals and all their failed ideas.

By the evening of 3 x, several Guardian correspondents were blaming multiculti-mad Presidents Clinton and Bush for reckless subprime borrowing - without a single Grauniadista taking exception. A part-Black part-Jewish Senator had tried to deny the "pernicious lie" that lending to Blacks led to the credit crunch, but he was promptly jumped on by 50 AmRen supporters (Campaign for America's Future, 28 ix).

By 8 x, as HMG showered 400B pounds on Britain's busted banks, part-nationalizing them, economic guru Gerard Lyons, a member of the International Council of the Bretton Woods Committee, a steering group for the IMF and World Bank, declared: "..there is nothing wrong with young people borrowin money against their expected future income if they have genuinely good prospects, but we need to prevent the sort of irresponsible lending to people with poor credit ratings that led to the sub-prime mortgage crisis" (Daily Telegraph). The Torygraph's admirable Simon Heffer concurred (though equally not brave enough to mention the dreaded topic of race): "..it is always a good idea to lend money [only] to people who stand a chance of paying it back."


LABOUR FANTASIA

Signifying its desperation, the Labour Party which had led Britain to filthy hospitals, failed schools, youth knife crime and the `credit crunch' accepted 1M pounds as a donation from Britain's even-better-known fantasist, J. K. Rowling.


PEECEE LATEST EXPOSED

A fine send-up of the Guardian newspaper's list of words to be avoided by its writers lest reality be too painful for its readers and their peecee bishops in government and the luniversities was provided in the Spectator by columnist Rod Liddle (3 x). Some of the terms up for banishment were: active homosexual; career women; Third World; blacks; Asians; Australasia; Bangalore; primitive African tribes; crippled; in a wheelchair; hare lip; ethnic minorities; handicapped; spinster; committed suicide; gypsies; Bombay; illegitimate daughter; air hostess; Siamese twins; Calcutta; deaf ears; illegal asylum seeker; province of Northern Ireland; grandmother; bachelor.


BIOLOGY OF POLITICS

Various American scientists came out saying that - as the London School had always known (especially since Hans Eysenck's The Psychology of Politics, 1954) - genes and physiological factors play some part in social and political views (The Chronicle of Higher Education, 8 x). For example two of them, at Rice University, had found more conservative people to have stronger reactions on electrocardiograms (ECGs) to aversive pictures (e.g. of a maggot-infested wound, or of a large spider on a person's face).


FREE SPEECH DEFENDED

The arrest at Heathrow Airport of German Holocaust-denier Fredrick T”ben, 64, a teacher and an Australian citizen at the behest of the German authorities (who wanted to try T”ben for his incorrectness) was deplored by the Sunday Telegraph (5 x), Daily Telegraph (columnist Philip Johnston, 6 x) the Liberal Democrats (Chris Huhne), the Daily Mail (columnist Melanie Phillips, 6 x) and even by many Guardian readers (3 x) - though not by the Jewish historian David Cesarani (enemy of `rapist' Arthur Koestler) selected to write a column by the Guardian and reckoning it would be a "smart move," with economic recession/depression coming, to show `extremists' that uppitiness would be punished.

{Still the case of the `Heretical Two,' Simon Sheppard and Stephen Whittle, on the run after conviction for `race hate speech' and seeking asylum in the U.S.A. (see July), went unmentioned.}


MOUNTED POLICE SENT TO FRENCH SCHOOLS

Having failed in his first 16 months in office to get a grip on Black youf crime, French President Nicholas Sarkozy announced he would be sending mounted police to troubled schools, especially to the Nelson Mandela School in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, Le Blanc-Mesnil, where fights occurred daily (usually between North African adolescents, over drugs) (Irish Independent, 6 x).


RACE AND I.Q. LATEST

A fine summary and update of the London School position on race, genes, IQ, brain size and skin colour was provided by Phil Rushton and Art Jensen: `James Watson's Most Inconvenient Truth: Race Realism and the Moralistic Fallacy,' Medical Hypotheses, 2008, 71, 629-640.

CHINESE SET AFRICA TO WORK

While Britain's molly-coddled prisoners watched soaps and played with their ipods at a cost of œ50Kp.a. per (often Black and/or Muslim) man to taxpayers, China was setting its own gulag of prisoners to work in Africa, helping organize slave labour in Zambia, Sudan, Angola and the `Democratic Republic of the Congo' - labour which Africans found marginally preferable to slow starvation under the Western aid regimes that had destroyed their native economies (Daily Mail, 30 ix).


ITALIANS BATTLE ILLEGALS

As Italy continued to lead the way for Western Europe in opposing illegal third-world immigration (gypsies, Albanians, North Africans), the country was said to have arrested 12,000 suspects in the course of 2008 - and provoked counter-protests by 7,000 people in Milan and riots in that city's immigrant district of Cernusco (Christian Science Monitor, 1 x). {Austrians too posed problems for the peecee E.U. by swinging substantially to `far right' (but non-violent) parties in elections, doubling the nationalist vote in the two years since 2006 to 29%. And, as the `credit crunch' kicked in, Spain - where immigrants (both legal and illegal) made up some 14% of the population, up from 3% in 1998 -- began paying unemployment benefit in advance to jobless foreigners who promised to return home for at least three years (Financial Times, 27 ix).}


EDINBURGH L-UNI STRUGGLES ON

Despite coming only 104th in national ratings of student satisfaction with teaching quality and only 15th in overall ratings (Student, 30 ix), E.LU. announced that, with the help of a œ3.4M grant to (my Ph.D. student) Professor Ian Deary, it would establish a Centre for Cognitive Ageing, Cognitive Epidemiology and Cognibabbling in General - always so long as race received no mention and even the use of terms like intelligence and IQ was kept to a minimum..


ETHNIC SEGREGATION VINDICATED

In the course of a typically lively tirade from maverick British political philosopher,* John Gray -- predicting that `credit crunch' spelled the end of America's system of unregulated capitalism {though hadn't they thrown the Enron operatives and Lord Black into jail, and wasn't it America's peecee socialism of unsecured mortgages that had led to the crunch?...} and of American world hegemony itself -- the one-time Thatcherite (lately more Green) made an interesting admission, about the Iraq occupation (Guardian, 29 ix):

"The success of the surge, which has been achieved by bribing the Sunnis, while acquiescing in ongoing ethnic cleansing, has produced a condition of relative peace in parts of the country."

As in Cyprus, ex-Yugoslavia, Israel, Northern Ireland and indeed the USA itself, peace between rival ethnic groups was being largely achieved by nothing more politically sophisticated than physical separation - how embarrassing for the praters of multiculturalism!

* Newly retired, at 60, from his chair in European Thought at the London School of Economics - presumably because the great drinking man had some serious discontent with the U.K.'s luniversities and their state-miseducated illiterate `students.'


THE g FACTOR REVISITED - AT A DISTANCE

Journalist Charles Murray, co-author with Richard Herrnstein of The Bell Curve (1994), set out in words of one syllable for benighted Funday Times readers (28 ix) the importance of educational streaming -- though carefully avoiding any mention of Francis Galton, Charles Spearman, Cyril Burt, Art Jensen, Hans Eysenck or The g Factor.


HOPE FOR HUMANITY

The age-old truth that - though poor girls have more babies than rich girls -- rich men spread their genes around more successfully than poor men was confirmed by researchers at Newcastle University (New Scientist, 29 ix).


PAEDOPARANOIA ADMITTED

After some fifteen years of what I have called padohysteria, it was admitted by a female child psychologist that "our anxiety [to protect children] does ultimately discriminate against men" and in particular deters men from taking up careers in teaching (Daily Telegraph, 30 ix). Said Dr Tanya Byron (who was the presenter of a BBC TV show on problem children and an adviser to HMG on internet safety): "There is this paranoid, over-the-top concern about paedophilia and child molestation - that it is not safe to leave children with men." She said research by HMG's Training and Development Agency found boys worked better with male teachers.


TORY OUTSQUEAKER

A Conservative shadow minister spoke out a fraction on immigration: multiculturalism in the UK had left a "terrible" legacy, creating a vacuum that has been filled by extremists from across the political spectrum, the shadow home secretary, Dominic Grieve, warned. In an interview with the Guardian (27 ix) on the eve of the Conservative party conference, Grieve said that "long-term inhabitants" had been left fearful, while second- and third- generation immigrants felt alienated and unsure what British values were.

DARWINIST MARTYR (vs Communism) RECALLED

"In 1928, as the United States headed toward the Wall Street crash, Josef Stalin unveiled a "great breakthrough," the first five-year plan for making the Soviet Union supremely modern at any cost. Not only was agriculture to be collectivized, nature itself was to be transformed by Soviet science.

Unfortunately, the science in question was false. Its champion, a self-taught geneticist by the name of Trofim Lysenko, is now a byword for scientific fraud. His archrival, [Nikolai Vavilov,] the subject of Peter Pringle's new book, is a less well-known figure who might have saved the Soviet Union but instead was sacrificed on the altar of communist ideology."


CRUSTY JIM FLYNN SLAMS AFRO-AMERICAN YOUF CULCHA

To widespread neglect, the discoverer of the 20th-century IQ-test-score-rise, jaunty ethnic-Eirish Prof. Jim Flynn blamed Blecks' across-the-board socio-economic failures on the only interesting thing about them, their youth culture of sex, violence, misogyny and disrespec' (New Scientist, 3 ix) - Jim little thinking to ask whether this US/UK Black culture was not simply an understandable reaction to growing up stupid yet patronized in a successful White society (by contrast, African Blacks just join armies and rape and pillage with impunity, having no need to spend their time merely rappin' about such possibilities).


RACE REALISTS RE-SURFACE

After two months of media suppression, anti-PeeCee heroes Simon Sheppard and Stephen Whittle (seeking asylum in the USA after being found guilty of `race hate speech,' esp. anti-Semitism, and going on the run to Los Angeles - see July) resurfaced, submitting an Appeal to Leeds Crown Court (Selby Times [the newspaper for Sheppard's home town in Yorkshire], 18 ix).

An account of the case and of the shockingly tyrannical state of English law re race hate speech, together with addresses to which financial contributions for The Heretical Two could be sent, was provided at http://hereticaltwo.nfshost.com/. The Sheppard website at www.heretical.com consisted of 750 pages and over 2 million words, being a collection of articles and excerpts covering a wide range of topics. Just twelve web pages had been the subject of criminal charges.


OLD COMMIE GOES TO EARTH re RACE

As weeks went by without glitterati Cambridge intellectual George Steiner clarifying his off-the-cuff race realism and thus improving on the cowardice of Nobelist James Watson (see above for both oldies), a nice reminder of Steiner's former Soviet sympathies appeared (National Review, 29 ix), perhaps explaining his embarrassment:

"Reviewing The Gulag Archipelago in The New Yorker in 1974, George Steiner wrote that "to infer that the Soviet terror is as hideous as Hitlerism is not only a brutal oversimplification but a moral indecency," revealing with those words the vast blind spot of Western Left intellectuals.

Despite Solzhenitsyn, that blind spot continues. As [Tim] Tzouliadis notes [The Forsaken], it has enabled the story of what happened to the Americans who sought work in Soviet Russia to disappear down the memory hole. And since so many continue to believe that the Soviet repression was hardly comparable to that of the Nazis, many will deny that in the Soviet Union, as the author concludes, its defining story "was the murder of millions of innocent citizens by the state."


PIONEER COP-OUT

Asked by a supporter to report on the current state of the Pioneer Foundation, I was shocked to discover no mention of The g Factor at the PF website and wrote as follows:

"..for the Pioneers to have failed to support me and now, it turns out, to decline even to *mention* my TgF, that takes some doing. Of course, Phil R. probably never liked my venturing a little criticism of his Race, Evolution & Behavior (review attached). But really! If only Hans Eysenck had had enough authority and gumption to bang heads together!? Think of it: academic race realism, if heard from a unified chorus of support for TgF, could have prevented sub-prime lending, the credit crunch and the probably coming American race war! -- Ah well, at least the neglect of the London School means we're all able to enjoy our own chosen stocks and shares in peace without being firebombed....

Best, -- Chris."


FANTASIST REBUKED

Authoress and single mum (as was) J.K.Rowling's loopy donation of œ1M (of her œ600M fortune) to Labour, because of that party's devotion to single-parent families, was promptly and properly ridiculed in the Sun by Fergus Shanahan (23 ix) - though FS should have mentioned that single-parenting works O.K. in the (increasingly rare) case where the mother and baby are of high IQ.


STREAMING DEFENDED

A fine case for educational streaming (including practical education and apprenticeships for dumbos) was made in The Cornell Daily Sun by Katie Engelhart (18 ix). I replied encouragingly, referring Katie to Chapter 4 of TgF (published 24 ix).


DEMOCRATS STOKE U.S. RACE WAR AS BANKS CRASH FROM POLITICIAN-DEMANDED UNSECURED LENDING TO MINORITIES AS PART OF FORCED MULTICULTURALISM

As politicians in Washington wrestled to prevent meltdown of America's banks, while avoiding blaming the politicians who had caused bankers to over-lend to `sub-prime' Blacks, Hispanics and Mexican illegals* and thus over-stimulated house prices, an astonishingly inflammatory attack on the U.S. Republicans' vice-presidential nominee was reported by CNN (25 ix):

"Rep. Alcee Hastings told an audience of Jewish Democrats that they should be wary of Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin because "anybody toting guns and stripping moose don't care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks." "If Sarah Palin isn't enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention," Rep. Alcee Hastings of Florida said at a panel about the shared agenda of Jewish and African-American Democrats."
|
{That such far-out sentiments should surface was not surprising to those who knew that both `community organizer' Osambo and `feminist' Hitlery, the leaders of the 2008 Democrats, both drew their inspiration from Chicago Jewish left-loon agitator Saul Alinsky (1909-71) (American Thinker, 26 ix).}

* In 2005, the Washington Post had noted: "Hispanics, the nation's fastest-growing major ethnic or racial group, have been courted aggressively by real estate agents, mortgage brokers and programs for first-time buyers that offer help with closing costs. Ads proclaim: "Sin verificacion de ingresos! Sin verificacion de documento!"-which loosely translates as, `Income tax forms are not required, nor are immigration papers.'"

In 2008, TownHall recorded (24 ix): "Thanks to lax Bush administration-approved policies allowing illegal aliens to use "matricula consular cards" and taxpayer identification numbers to open bank accounts, more forms of mortgage fraud have burgeoned. Moneylenders still have no access to a verification system to check Social Security numbers before approving loans."

An AmRen correspondent wrote: "This financial meltdown had its origins in a push to give home loans to people who had no down payments, bad credit, and an inability or unwillingness to pay. Considerable effort has been expended by many experts laying out the precise chronology of just how this debacle escalated, and you've got to understand that without the pressure applied by Clinton and others, including Reno, Barney Frank, Andrew Cuomo, et al, there would be no sub-prime mortgages to package and sell as investments. Only the leftist radicals are denying this, but they too will shut up once the diversity scheme has been exposed further."

Another AmRen correspondent said: "Among national-profile politicians, Jack Kemp (R) and Barney Frank (D) have been the biggest villains in all this. Each for a good two decades or more, they relentlessly pushed programs to promote "affordable" housing - that is, homes carrying low-money-down financing designed to make homeowners out of people with limited or poor credit. Guess what? Blacks and Hispanics are disproportionately represented among these homebuyers."

Unsurprisingly, the Jewish Frank, Congressman for Boston, was foremost amongst those arguing for total nationalization of the US banks, with no penalties for wankers who had so enthusiastically gone along with peecee-multiculturalist stipulations to lend to `sub-primes.' (The near-sighted Kemp had grown up in the 95% Jewish community of West Los Angeles and had many Jewish sympathies - though his parents had sent him to the Church of Christ Scientist.)

Another AmRen correspondent asked: "If the government takes on all the bad loans; will it then handle them in the affirmative action manner? Minority loans will be forgiven, but whites will pay the full amount at a greatly increased interest rate to make up the difference. White people that pay their bills will be told to pay more in fees, interest and taxes or what??? These may be dumb questions; but based on government actions over the last 50 years; I cannot help but wonder."

Another: "The Clintonistas were the the source, but it was clearly unqualified individual minorities who were the willing recipients. No one forced them to sign on the dotted line. No one forced them to commit to a mortgage. They viewed mortgage loans as just one more type of entitlement and in a very real sense there were entitlements. Which brings me to [the] question of who will pay for these entitlements. [Certainly], it is overwhelmingly whites who will pay and they will pay in many different forms. They will pay by being hit with even higher state and federal taxes. They will pay by seeing their tax deferred savings accounts, mostly in the form of various mutual funds, loose value as the stocks that they represent take a dive, and they will also pay because the economic downturn which the sub-prime mortgage debacle is causing and will worsen will decrease their standard of living and possibly leave them unemployed with no savings but a social security check made out in nearly worthless dollars. Yet one more example of just how much of a wonderful thing our state sponsored "diversity" really is!"
I thus wrote to the Torygraph as follows:

To: The Editor; Daily Telegraph; London

From: Mr C. R. Brand; Edinburgh EH8 9PP

27 ix 2008

Dear Editor,

In setting out the steps from 'toxic mortgages' to the likely part-nationalization of U.S. banking (Daily Telegraph, 27th September, pp.4-5) you arguably omitted one step. 'The first black President of the U.S.A.," as Bill Clinton called himself, had regulated tough penalties for banks that failed to provide 'affordable homes' for minorities;* President George W. Bush continued this encouragement of 'sub-prime mortgages' and even extended such help for people with no incomes, jobs or assets ('NINJAS') to Mexican illegal immigrants.** It was this which yielded the steady inflation of house prices on which both financiers and mortgagees came to gamble; but the sorry circumstances and lifestyles of the new lenders meant that many had to sell. The 2007/8 slump in the housing market was simply the eventual correction for the enforcement of multicultural optimism by politicians.

I am yours truly, -- Chris Brand.

* See Investor's Business Daily, 15 ix 2008. As your correspondent Colin Broughton noted (27th September, p.21), discrimatory (i.e. discriminating) lending according to race, marital status or religion was banned by Clinton's Equal Credit Opportunity Act.

** In 2008, TownHall recorded (24 ix): "Thanks to lax Bush administration-approved policies allowing illegal aliens to use "matricula consular cards" and taxpayer identification numbers to open bank accounts, more forms of mortgage fraud have burgeoned. Moneylenders still have no access to a verification system to check Social Security numbers before approving loans." Between them, the Clinton and Bush administrations increased U.S. home ownership (50% of it mortgageeship) by 5%.

On the Telegraph's website (27 ix), correspondent Ian Moss concurred with Colin Broughton: "You don't think the banks would lend to wastrels willingly, do you? The banks were forced to lend to anyone with a pulse or face murdering fines and jail time. The pathetic childish Dumobrats and their welfare stupidities are always the cause of economic rot...Stealing from people who earn and handing to those who didn't is a criminal act which makes the Dumobrats a mafia gang...albeit a stupid one."

TORY OUTSQUEAKER

A Conservative shadow minister spoke out a fraction on immigration: multiculturalism in the UK had left a "terrible" legacy, creating a vacuum that has been filled by extremists from across the political spectrum, the shadow home secretary, Dominic Grieve, warned. In an interview with the Guardian (27 ix) on the eve of the Conservative party conference, Grieve said that "long-term inhabitants" had been left fearful, while second- and third- generation immigrants felt alienated and unsure what British values were.

BNP BELLE

Britain’s ‘Next Top Model’ of 2008 (selected by TV, the Independent etc.), lovely lissome Lauren McAvoy, a 21-year-old Essex girl and a lover of pole dancing, sky diving and “water sports,” turned out to be a “big fan” of the British National Party (‘a bit of far right,’ double-entendred the Sun, 20 ix).




BRITAIN POLICED BY ILLEGALS

Showing how London authorities had become infested by slave labour (like Ancient Rome), no less than 48 – a half – of Lambeth’s traffic wardens were found (by a new contractor) to be illegal immigrants and were thus (in the unaccustomed glare of publicity) sacked. At the same time the mighty Metropolitan Police Association of Sambos gloriously decided to withdraw all co-operation (except for receiving salaries) from its employer as another of its high heidjuns was suspended on charges of corruption (charges inevitably contested as ‘racist’) (Daily Telegraph, 20 ix).


IN DESPARANDUM, ENVIRONMENTALISM

Showing a touching faith in his peecee religion, sub-Prime Minister Grumpy Stalinist Gordon Brown met the challenge of the ‘credit crunch’ and Stock Market plunge (due to over-lending to Blecks and kindred*) and his own mere 16% approval rating in opinion polls by proposing, yes, free state indoctrination (a.k.a. nursery nursing) for two-year-olds – taking such infants from their mothers for 15 hours per week at a national cost of 1 billion pounds annually (BBC Radio 4, 21 ix; Sunday Telegraph, 21 ix, main front-page headline story).

* Investor’s Business Daily, 15 ix: “…. it was the Clinton administration, obsessed with multiculturalism, that dictated where mortgage lenders could lend, and originally helped create the market for the high-risk subprime loans now infecting like a retrovirus the balance sheets of many of Wall Street’s most revered institutions. Tough new regulations forced lenders into high-risk areas where they had no choice but to lower lending standards to make the loans that sound business practices had previously guarded against making. It was either that or face stiff government penalties.”

{Needless to say, the ignoracists of NuLabour, assembled in Manchester for a bizarre loyalty fest (a.k.a. party conference) felt no need to mention this obvious theory of the credit crunch, far less to accept it in preference to their own automatic reflex that bankers had over-lent because they were under-regulated.}


REGION REALISM

As the popular broadcaster, vicar’s wife Anne Atkins, scorned officials in Norfolk for felling chestnut trees in case the conkers fell on people’s heads, “as if that would make a difference in Norfolk,” the BBC said complaints about her ‘racism’ “poured in” (Sunday Telegraph, 21 ix). But there was probably a little truth in her quip, for Richard Lynn’s work of the 1970’s (Brit.J.soc.&clin.Psychol.) had shown IQ in the modern British Isles to be lower in areas further away from London (mean IQ 102) and similar work for the Irish banks in Eire similarly showed would-be recruits to be duller according to how far from Dublin they originated.

-----------------------------------

RACIAL SEGREGATIONISTS WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG, ADMITS BLACK LEADER!

"A controversial race relations campaigner has called for the creation of "black schools" to "stem the avalanche of educational failure and the descent into violent gang culture. Lee Jasper, who advised former London Mayor {`Red'} Ken Livingstone on equalities {i.e. on equality ishoos, surely}, said it was time the black community ran its own schools, with black teachers and black governors." - Daily Express, 6 ix.


HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL IN THE IDEALIST BREAST

Inspiring millions of Obamoronicans, the Johnanesburg Times brought striking news of the success of affirmative racism in South Africa (Dan Roodt, 7 ix): so far in retreat from the tide of Black power were Whites that fully 50% of White males were `self-employed' - working from their homes in White enclaves to pay for the guns, dogs, barbed wire and surveillance gear which alone could keep their wives and daughters from being raped at any time of day or night.


O PASTOR!

The level of probity to be expected from an Obama government was exposed by the New York Post (9 ix) which recounted Sambo's pastor, the `Reverend' Josiah Wright, 67 and on his second marriage (to a wife wrenched from a fellow parishioner at Wright's `church'), had - just as Sambo was coming to prominence in 2008 and being forced to dissociate from Wright's flagrant Black racism -- enjoyed a steamy affair with married White church executive Elizabeth Payne, 37.


RACE WAR FORECAST

As Republican Presidential hopefuls George `Gramps' McCain and Sarah `Pitbull' Palin surged to a 10% U.S. poll lead among `likely voters', it turned out that race war had been forecast, if the G.O.P. won, by Philadelphia Daily News columnist Fatimah Ali (2 ix).

The English Home Office agreed, predicting an upsurge in racism if there was any deepening of the 2008 economic recession (itself caused by over-optimistic lending to Blacks and other `sub-prime' mortgagees* (Times, 1 ix); and even the race-sniffy Speccie recounted the scale of the immigration problem and reckoning that the 2008- recession could well test British tolerance (11 ix).

In the USA, the Wall Street Journal reported a mixture of "nervousness" and "anger" among Blacks at the prospect of Obama losing - and AmRen correspondents inclined to agree that Blacks would riot (unless confined to barracks by snow and ice). {I, too, had predicted racial strife if the West's economy took a serious downturn - The g Factor, 1996, p. 136 - saying Western liberalism and welfare-state values had made themselves dependent on the success of capitalism.}
* Known to Telegraph columnist Jeff Randall as NINJAS -- No Income, Jobs or Assets


PEECEE PCs HOIST BY OWN PETARD

Adding to national hilarity at self-chosen peecee witch-hunters being themselves accused of witchcraft, a top Mueslie with the Metropolitan Police,* an alleged expert on race relations, forced marriages and honour killings, earning 60K pounds p.a., announced she would sue the Force and its tragicomic peecee paragon Commissioner Sir Ian Blair for `racial bullying' against her - thereby joining Ugandan-born Indian top cop Tarique Ghaffur (see August) in seeking a racial payout before the fall of Britain's despised Labour Government brought PeeCee to an end.

The new complainer, 50-looking `Ms' Yasmin Rehman, `Head of Community Partnerships and Diversity,' had been on sick leave for a year prior to launching her lawsuit. {You couldn't make it up!} The thousands-strong Metropolitan Black Police Association, which was backing Ms Rehman, announced it would urge its members to mount street protests (Daily Telegraph, 12 ix). The Daily Telegraph's Simon Heffer saw the irony (13 ix): "It is most interesting of all that such a zealot of anti-racism as the hapless Sir Ian should be accused of being the biggest racist of all."

* Under NuLabour pressure, the Met had converted to Peecee after the 1999 Macpherson of Luny Report recommended that Black criminals on London's streets be spared the harassment of previous police `stop and search' practices whereby they might be deprived of swag, guns, knives or ganja and sent for supervision by female social workers of social-anthropological sympathies.


PAEDOHYSTERICAL NULABOUR NAZISM EXPOSED

"Local authorities around the country are setting up databases to hold records of accusations made about anyone from teachers and doctors to Scout leaders and private tutors. They are employing staff just to look into the claims -- which can be made anonymously -- who are required to contact police, social services or the adult's employer and then keep track of the case. Details of the allegation will be kept on the accused's personnel file until they retire so they can be seen by potential employers, and in a reversal of the basic tenet of English law they will only be deemed innocent if they can prove it.

The system was introduced in the wake of the Soham murders to make sure authorities keep track of anyone suspected of child abuse. But critics claim it gives too much power to unaccountable council officers, creates extra red tape for bosses and will lead to innocent professionals having their careers blighted by malicious allegations. They also warn it will drive people -- particularly men -- out of working with children for fear of being labelled a paedophile. Already just 2 per cent of teachers of the youngest primary school pupils are male.

It comes on top of the new vetting system being implemented for everyone who works with under-16s, the Independent Safeguarding Authority, which will lead to 11.3 million adults having their backgrounds checked. Professor Frank Furedi, a sociologist at the University of Kent, said: "Those who are accused may become the lifetime victims of these allegations. It then creates an incentive to make those sorts of accusations by people who know it can affect someone's career. This will play into the hands of those who believe there is no smoke without fire."" - Daily Telegraph, 10 ix.


CAMBRIDGE CONDEMNS LABOUR'S COMPREHENSIVE C*CK-UP

The Principal of Cambridge University (though a lezzie-looking old bag) managed to squeak out a few words of reservation about Labour endlessly trying to send its comprehensive-school failures for re-education in the Fens (Daily Express, 11 ix, Leo McKinstry, `Marxist dogma that stops bright kids going to top colleges'). The Daily Telegraph's Simon Heffer concurred (13 ix): "Admitting people [to Cambridge] on a quota system based on social class can only drag down Cambridge students' standards, driving quality elsewhere and ultimately harming the future of the whole country."


CLASS WAR COMEBACK

As NuLabour faced meltdown, Deputy Leader Harriet Harman thrilled to the beat of ancient drums by insisting that low-SES children were doomed by their social class - little acknowledging it was people like her (a relative of the Earls of Longford, educated at nobby St Paul's Girls' School, and being sure to send her own to children to grammar schools) who had worked tirelessly to abolish the grammar schools that had once given a chance to bright kids of low SES and to avoid providing the practical education that had been urged as long as 60 years ago by Sir Cyril Burt as likely to give realistic chances to duller kids of low SES.


IQ GETS INTO SPECCIE

IQ was given a rare mention in the Spectator (12 ix) as columnist Rod Liddle had a laugh at the `halfwitted' and `imbecilic' Muesli would-be terrorists who so often fail - at least in Britain - on their missions from Allah (they forget the matches to ignite their shoes, they cannot get parked etc.). (Of course Liddle did not risk upsetting anyone by actually mentioning the average IQ of 90 standardly obtaining in Muslim countries.)


JOYS OF DIVERSITY

"Eleven people died in a riot at a football game in the Democratic Republic of the Congo* after a goalkeeper was accused of using witchcraft to win the match." - Daily Telegraph, 16 ix.

* Average IQ 64 according to Lynn & Vanhanen, 2006.


WHO TOOK THE `GREAT' OUT OF GREAT BRITAIN?

At last, the Sun seemed resolved to move on from its fifteen-year infatuation with NuLabour. ""Great" Britain is officially on the critical list, ravaged by 11 years of New Labour policies that favoured the super-rich and super-idle, while robbing blind those who worked hard to try to make a decent life for their family. It's a spent force, an empty vessel drained by the demands of the benefit culture and swarms of economic migrants who found gullible Britain to be far more generous than their own countries." -- Columnist Jane Moore, The Sun, 17 ix.


ECONOMIST BACKS ELITE BREEDING

A new Economic History of the World (by Gregory Clark, reviewed in Policy, Winter 2008) showed the usual derisory neglect of IQ; but at least it deplored the humanitarian interventions that had multiplied the size of the poverty problem in Africa in the late-twentieth century, and it properly credited English parsons and squires (set up by the Tudors and established by the 1688 settlement) with the high rate of breeding (whether of legitimate children or bastards) which, in its quality as well as quantity, was enough to trickle down in the population and trigger the improvement in self-restraint and application that triggered England's famous Industrial Revolution.


TOP TV MAN SLAMS IMMIGRATION

Entertainer Noel Edmonds said "the bus is full" re immigration to Britain (Reuters, 14 ix), prompting anti-racist yowling.


MULTICULTI MAYHEM

Paris prosecutors struggled to deny that serious September gang violence between tower-block youf of the 19th arrondissement (north-east Paris) had gone largely along the lines of `beurs' (North African Blacks) versus yamulka-wearing `fiujs' (backward juifs, i.e. Jews) (YnetNews, 17 ix; Guardian, 18 ix).

`RACISM IN ALL OF US' - TOP CAMBRIDGE DON

Phoned by the Daily Telegraph's young Jessica Salter and asked whether the revered Jewish academic and novelist George Steiner, 79, had the right to suggest (in an interview for Spain's El Pais, reported 30 viii by the Torygraph's `Mandrake') that `racism' was everywhere alive and kicking and that racial tolerance was only skin deep, I managed a mock explosion at the very idea that Britain's senior intellectual might not have the right to speak his mind about anything he chose; then I moved on to a mini-diatribe on the low rate of Black intermarriage with other racial groups in the USA and explained to Jessica the general phenomenon of White flight from cities like Detroit and, today, London; and I topped this off with my personal experience that few ordinary Edinburghians had taken exception to my views.

Asked how E.LU. had treated me for outspeaking about race, I replied, "Like shit," referring to the lack of consultation with me despite my 26 years' service, but explained that E.LU. shared its cowardice in the face of the Anti-Nazi League and kindred leftists with most other Britiish universities and the media - Jessica had attended the LUniversity of Leeds, so was familiar with the Frank Ellis affair.

"You won't have much freedom without men of courage," I opined, quoting Pericles; but the great & good of E.LU., faced with peecee fervour and a possible drop in cashflow, had behaved like "hypnotized rabbits." Jessica seemed content with this firework display and went off keenly clutching my suggestion that she contact British free speech expert Professor Eric Barendt (University College London) who had lately shown a commendable and sustained interest in my case (bringing out as it had the lack of university protection.for free speech by academics in Britain).

Jessica's interest duly yielded a summary of the reaction of seven UK `academics' to Emeritus Churchill College Fellow Steiner's remarks (D.Torygraph, 1 ix, p.9, `Academic: I don't want Jamaican neighbours'*) - at least having me as the luminary Steiner's leading supporter (though Professor Barendt also issued his own judicious approval), and annoying E.LU. by linking its sacking of me not to E.LU.'s red herring of `paedophilia' but to the robust `scientific racism' of The g Factor.

Jessica's effort generated the desired `controversy' (incl. plenty of support for George Steiner) here. One contribution, apparently from BNP leader Nick Griffin, was:

How refreshing to have a member of the intellectual elite with the courage to tell the truth, rather than bowing to the pressure to express belief in absurd lies, which is at the very heart of the applied social Marxism known as Political Correctness. Well done, Prof Steiner, for defying the all-pervasive tyranny of PC. One man at least stands up on an ivory tower and sees and tells the truth.

The Daily Mail (1 ix) repeated the Telegraph story, but without mention of any academics backing Steiner (who had offered his quips about reggae-loving Jamaican neighbours lowering the price of one's property from his substantial home in leafy Trumpington, outside Cambridge). Steiner's race realism was broadcast in Caribbean News (31 viii), which claimed Steiner had been condemned by "Muslim groups."

To a Luxembourg supporter who inquired what I had really told the Torygraph, I replied:

I told Jessica all Whites (and Asians and Latinos) avoid Blacks like the plague in the USA, and pointed to Black-`run' Detroit and Zimbabwe as to what the future held; I said that E.LU. was staffed by cowards, not the men of courage that Pericles had held the cause of freedom to require etc.

Still, at least I got published as saying "There's no academic freedom left in this country, as my own case showed." And E.LU. will have been p****d off with my sacking being attributed to the scientific racism of The g Factor rather than to paedophilia. To cognoscenti, these are breakthroughs -- and in a Londinian rather than a merely Clottish paper....

Since no news of or reply to the Telegraph's article appeared at Cambridge University's website, I wrote to them as follows:

I wonder if Professor George Steiner will be issuing a considered reply to the hostile reporting of his 'racism' in the Daily Telegraph (Monday, 1 ix 2008, p. 9). I will gladly offer any help I can. Sincerely, -- Chris Brand (Edinburgh, psychologist, author of The g Factor, tel.: [given]).

Professor Steiner's reservations about Jamaican neighbours eventually aired on RadioJamaica, 2 ix.

For the Guardian (3 ix), quadroon-looking Lindsay Johns considered the case of the great literatteur and humanist and graciously let Steiner off as being `old-fashioned' rather than "a visceral, evil-hearted racist"; but since the chief evidence for Steiner's fundamental peecee piety and ignoracism was his association with Harvard's `Afro-American Studies' guru Henry Louis Gates, it had to be asked how long that friendship would last once news of Steiner's aversion to noisy Blacks got across the Pond.

Priyamvada Gopal, a female tutor at Steiner's own college, Churchill, while fairly obviously deploring Steiner's succouring of racists, concentrated on complaining of the shallowness of such media-fanned `race rows' (Guardian, 5 ix, `Maverick dons inspire only those who hate, not think') - though whether she had ever joined in the race debate that I began at Gonville & Caius College in Cambridge in 1997, or in any other serious discussion of race and IQ, was unclear.

A quite sensible correspondence followed (including the amusing claim that the left standardly says the embarrassingly homophobic culture of Jamaica occurs because slavery resulted in slave owners sodomizing those they oppressed, leading to an inherent hatred of gays), but without any mention of the scholarly offerings of Phil Rushton, Richard Lynn or myself.

Steiner's race realism also got a largely positive reception from some thirty correspondents at AmRen (1 ix). By contrast, blogging literature-lover Shirley Dent was genuinely shocked at the great humanitarian Steiner `falling back on biology' (Grauniad, 5 ix); but she was given the apt reply that someone who had lost all his Jewish schoolfriends in the concentration camps might be rather worth listening to on the subjects of race and racism.

The Voice [of East London Jamaicans] deplored Steiner's `racism' and reported "anger in the black community" while asserting that "many of his fellow scholars" had backed him (7 ix).

* Comment by `CHRIS BRAND, a psychologist accused of scientific racism': `This country is so politically correct that it's become scared of free speech.'


RAPE AND RACE REALISM

Brave Oscar-winning actress and busty beauty Helen Mirren, 63, shocked femininies by declaring that `date rapists' (who only raped girls who had already agreed to be encloistered and undressed) should not be the subject of criminal charges (Mail on Sunday, 1 ix). She said she had been locked in and date-raped several times in her youth.

A smidgeon of support for both Steiner and Mirren appeared in the Indie (2 ix, Terence Blacker). And in the Daily Mail (2 ix), renowned war correspondent Max Hastings backed Steiner, recounted affectingly how his cleaning lady had had to emigrate to Australia to get away from noisy Jamaicans and chided multiculturalists for their "make-believe idealism," concluding: George Steiner has stated simple truths, and only the idiot Left could deny their reality.


COWARDLY MEDIA EXPOSED

After the mainstream media of the UK and USA had failed for six weeks to carry the news of the appeal for political asylum in the USA by the good-humoured anti-Semitic race realists and convicted `hate-speakers' Simon Sheppard and Stephen Whittle (see above), the pair's confinement in Los Angeles was summarized by the enthusiastic Southern Poverty Law Centre (Fall 2008).


"LABOUR NAZIS" SLAMMED

In a healthy new development -- since the Nazis were by then just about the only group that could be criticized or lampooned without bringing down accusations of `racism' -- the Sun began referring to local authority enforcers of regulations about parking, rubbish collection and littering (a Brit could be fined 2,500 pounds just for dropping a crisp) as LABOUR NAZIS - who didn't even wear smart uniforms, relying instead on plastic badges issued to these neosocialist jobsworths by councils (2 ix).


ALL IN THE GENES

Genes were reported by medical scientists in Finland and Hawaii for (separately) both long life and divorce (Daily Telegraph, 2 ix).


BLACK LEADER DEPARTS FOR DUNGEONS

While America's mainstream media declined to discuss the possibility that Boring Hussein Obambi's leadership might lead the USA to the fate of Black-led South Africa, Somalia, the Congo or even Zimbabwe, the (Black) mayor of Detroit exemplified the problems I had touched on with Jessica Salter (above) by pleading guilty to eight felonies, perjury and obstruction of justice and going directly to jail (Christian Science Monitor, 5 ix). The crimes were committed over a six-year period as `Motown's hip-hop mayor', Kwame Kilpatrick (built like a gorilla), strove to cover up a raucous party at Detroit-owned Manoogian Mansion after which his wife caught him in flagrante delicto with Tamara Greene, a 27-year-old hired `exotic dancer' (who was immediately attacked by Kilpatrick's wife Carlita and subsequently murdered) (Guardian, 6 ix).


`MARXIST' ACADEMICS LASHED

Long in the grip neo-Marxist PeeCee* and `deconstructionism', Britain's universities found themselves condemned for bureaucracy, falling standards and Marxism by the UK's top academic expert on Muesli terror, Professor Anthony Glees, as he packed his bags at Brunel University and headed off to the private-sector University of Buckingham (Times Higher, 4 ix).

* A fine analysis of how Marxism transmogrified, 1917-1997, into the equally single-minded and tyrannous Political Correctness was on offer on the internet from American military expert and palaeoconservative pundit Bill Lind (William S. Lind). The once `scientific' LUniversity of Cambridge was a remarkably sad case, having voted 97-1 against race realism in the 1990's at the same time as giving an honorary degree reality-defying Frog wordsmith Jacques Derrida.

The only remaining skill of Britain's luniversities was in conning tens of thousands of pounds out of left-bamboozled illiterate `students' for `degrees' which subsequently proved worthless. The mentality-denying neosocialist bureaucratization of British life was nicely illustrated by a top London anaesthetist resigning his position to become a hairdresser - just as, two or three years ago, a Birmingham LU. physicist had resigned to retrain as a plumber.


APARTHEID REALISM

Appalled by the ongoing educational failure of Black kids in Britain's unstreamed `schools' (where children were largely `taught' without regard to ability - contrary to the 1996 proposals of The g Factor -- so remained untaught), Black left-wing education guru Lee Jaspers (adviser to London's recently voted-out anti-Western left-loon Mayor Ken Livingslime) demanded Black-only schools where kids would be lashed ooops taught by gorillas and learn respeck for somet'in' (Classic FM Radio, 7 ix, 12 noon).


CLOSE THE DOOR - NOW THE ELEPHANT'S IN THE PARLOUR!

After forty years of encouraging third-world immigration and damning those who criticized it as `racist,' Britain's traitorous politicians decided to cover their backsides by setting up an all-party House of Commons group on immigration allowing gentle criticism of further immigration (almost all of which would anyhow be from E.U. countries) so long as Pakistanis were allowed to continue to import non-English-speaking spouses, welfare-dependent Blacks were allowed to continue single-parent breeding and to roam the streets unstopped and unsearched, and native Brits had their lips sealed by Labour's `hate speech' legislation (Sun, 8 ix). But even this group (headed by Labour 'maverick' MP Frank Field and Tory MP Nicholas `Fatty' Soames) was accused of `pandering to xenophobia' by the left-wing thinktank the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) after it backed plans for all skilled immigrants from outside the E.U. to be sent home when their work visas expire after four years.


BLACKS RAMPAGE IN SPAIN

In scenes reminiscent of Paris, African immigrants in Andalucia rioted and injured police and firemen who were trying to extinguish house fires set by the Blacks as revenge on enemies (Guardian, 8 ix).


AFFIRMATIVE ACTION TO STAY BANNED IN COLORADO

An initiative to permit affirmative racism (`positive discrimination') in the state of Colorado failed to be made the subject of a referendum as fewer than the required 8,000 signatures from voters were forthcoming (AmRen, 5 xi).


RACE WAR FORECAST

As Republican Presidential hopefuls George `Gramps' McCain and Sarah `Pitbull' Palin surged to a 10% U.S. poll lead among `likely voters', it turned out that race war had been forecast, if the G.O.P. won, by Philadelphia Daily News columnist Fatimah Ali (2 ix). The English Home Office agreed, predicting an upsurge in racism if there was any deepening of the 2008 economic recession (itself caused by over-optimistic lending to Blacks and other `sub-prime' mortgagees (Times, 1 ix).

{I, too, had predicted racial strife if the West's economy took a serious downturn - The g Factor, 1996, p. 136 - saying Western liberalism and welfare-state values had made themselves dependent on the success of capitalism.}

PAEDOHYSTERICAL ILLIBERALISM LAMBASTED

British paedohysteria resumed as soon as ‘glam rock’ star Gary Glitter (see previously) returned from his jail sentence in Vietnam and was promptly traced by tabloids (using their insider sources in the police) to an intended hiding place with a friend in Hampshire. Demands of the sex abuse industry included tagging, chipping and not allowing Glitter ever to leave Britain even if he notified the police. But a fine blast against paedohysterical excess was issued in the Speccie – Rod Liddle, 28 viii, ‘Our obsession with paedophilia is more dangerous than Gary Glitter’s return.’


RACE IQ RECOGNIZED

A Colorado judge determined that a Mexican of IQ 66 could fry in the electric chair for murder – since he was not seriously mentally retarded by the standards of Mexico (mean IQ 88) – Rocky Mountain News, 23 viii).


‘RACIST’ DENIGRATIONS OF ‘ANTI-RACISTS’ MOUNT

As Ugandan-born Indian top cop Tarique Ghaffur was told without avail to “shut up” by the Met’s No. 2 (peecee-babbling ‘Sir’ Ian Blair being himself on holiday in France), it turned out that many other ethnic cops had decided to imitate the dogged Indian (who had kept a 10-year dossier of ‘racist’ slurs and swindles against him) – doubling the 2008 number of ‘racist’ complaints by staff against the Met as compared to previous years. There seemed a good chance that the ludicrous MacPhersonized Met. could collapse within months under the strains of its own internal witch-hunting. {In similar vein, a Black writer in American Chronicle, denounced “anti-white racism” among Blacks, who were accused of failing to take responsibility for the lamentable state of their own countries (25 viii).}

PAEDOHYSTERICS, RACE-SLUMPERS, FEMINAZIES AND GOURMETS DISMAYED AT BRITAIN'S NEW WORLD-WIDE IMAGE

As the Peking Olympics closed, with the British Commonwealth taking a lion's share of the medals and Eton-educated Boris Johnson, 44, splendidly teasing the Chinese that Britain had provided the home of pingpong (as of most other sports and games).

The supreme incompetence of modern Britain, with its failure to respect IQ and its doomed egalitarian belief in the merits of bureaucratic regulation and training, was put on display as a film of `The Best of Britain' by a firm called `Visit London' carried a modern-artistic image of paedosadist Myra Hindley (filmed when on display at the Royal Academy in 1995, before it was vandalized) was beamed worldwide to an audience of 2 billion people including the hypersensitive hawks of Britain's paedohysterical press

- Boris had swiftly to declare the promotion film axed (Sun, 25 viii; Guardian, 25 viii). In London itself, one of the handover ceremonies for the London 2012 Olympics had to be scrapped because of a Black youth being found at the Walthamstow site in a pool of blood, apparently knifed by fellow Blacks known to him (Sun, 25 viii).

Top British TV interviewer Jeremy Paxman added to the annoyance of Britain's modern idealists, revealing at the Edinburgh Television Festival (Sun, 25 viii): "If any middle-class white male I come across says he wants to enter television, I say give up all hope. They've no chance." {Britain's image took further knocks as the British finale lap of honour in Peiking was a fiasco matched only by the pathetic uncelebrated Heathrow return of the medal-laden champs dismally heaving their bags one by one down the steps from their BA aircraft (while no band played and BA had told fans to stay away for elfin safety reasons)

And celebrity chef Jamie Oliver slammed the country's `poor cuisine' and blamed it on beer-drinking - though Boris brought better cheer by reckoning Brits simply preferred sport to cuisine, e.g. using the Victorian dining table to invent the game of ping-pong (initially called whiff-whaff).}


NEOSOCIALIST SEX SALLY CONDEMNED

Following a letter from ten MPs and two quango bosses calling on the Government "to guarantee appropriate sex and relationship education in every primary and secondary school by putting personal, social and health education on a statutory basis as part of the national curriculum" (Daily Telegraph, 26 viii), I wrote to the Telegraph's Editor as follows:

Dear Sir,

In view of the call for state sex education for five-year-olds (Chris Bryant MP et al., Letters, 26th August), it is clear that Britain's boundlessly statist 'liberal'-left politicians just have not 'got it.' After eleven years of expensive, failed and state-expanding New Labourism, must the churches (and kindred religious and humanitarian bodies) not finally say enough is enough? Rather than tolerate neosocialist expansion into matters of sex, love and the family, it is time to demand -- as I advised Her Majesty's Government in 1966, when a prison psychologist -- that any government monies for these (and other moral purposes) should be channelled via local institutions reflecting people's own philosophical choices.

I am yours sincerely,

Chris Brand. {Mr Christopher Richard Brand, author of The g Factor}

POLICE TO STEER CLEAR OF MAD BLACK MUESLI

More British loopy `liberal'-left `tough-on-crime' stuff went on display as Magdi Elgizouli, 40, who had killed 25-year-old policewoman Nina Mackay in 1997 and been locked up indefinitely under the Mental Health Act, being said to have a `deranged hatred of the police,' was discovered enjoying four hours a week supervised release from a Southall, London, lunatic asylum to help him `integrate with society' prior to indefinite release. An urgent message was issued under Scotland Yard's `officer alert system' warning police to keep away from the killer.


GEORGIA ON MY MIND

I now reckon Nato made a huge mistake in not encouraging Russia's 1990's application for entry. We could thus have united the White race. Instead we preferred demacracy and hooman rights.... I'm so glad I marched through Edinburgh with the Serbs and Chinese in 1999 -- I thought the West's attack on a longstanding ally, Serbia, was monstrous. Now the birds are coming home to roost - with Russia using race realism to its own advantage by seizing its Ossetian collaborators back from the clutches of newly independent Georgia whereas the West's sympathy for ethnic nationalism had served only to create Muslim and gypsy states freed from the ancient influence of (relatively) civilizing Christian Serbia.

In the past ten days, the wife and I have seen several fantastically moving concerts/operetas by the mighty Ossetian conductor Valery Gergiev -- his mission to the Edinburgh Festival interrupted only by his own impulse to jet back at the weekend to conduct a rousing pro-Russian concert in South Ossetia. In Edinburgh, he and his orchestras (London and Russian) were heard with delight and without protest -- I had one noisy type thrown out by heavy staff before the beginning of one of the performances at E'bugger's Usher Hall.

Even the Guardian blasted Britain's schoolboyish Home Secretary for dashing to the Ukraine to back that divided country's application for Nato membership and to make threats against Russia which he and Britain were in no position to enforce (27 viii, David Hearst: Miliboy "appears not to know what he's talking about").


RELIGION OF PEACE, JUSTICE AND MASOCHISM

A Manchester Muesli fanatic was found guilty by a jury of forcing young teenage boys to flagellate themselves blade-bearing knobkerries till they bled from many minor and some deeper cuts (Guardian, 27 viii).


AGONY UNCLE CHRIS VINDICATED

In line with my advice to Edinburgh LUni students not to mess with their pheromones when engaged in mate-seeking (Student, c. 2004, `Keep your (pubic) hair on!'), scientists discovered that being on the Pill - with its resultant hormonal changes - reduces a girl's chances of finding the ideal partner whom she would rapturously love, viz. one with immune system genes complementary to her own (Daily Telegraph, 13 viii, `The Pill may change women's choice in men').

Dr Craig Roberts, who carried out the work in collaboration with the University of Newcastle, said the effect was robust: "The results showed that the preferences of women who began using the contraceptive pill shifted towards men with genetically similar odours. Not only could similarity in Major Histocompatibility Complex in couples lead to fertility problems but it could ultimately lead to the breakdown of relationships when women stop using the contraceptive pill, as odour perception plays a significant role in maintaining attraction to partners."


NIGERIAN IMMIGRANTS BLASTED

In the Holy Republic of Eire, heroic journalist Kevin Myers (see previous) continued his one-man crusade for race realism, pointing out that that most of the South's adult immigrants from Nigeria were out of work and dependent on the state for accommodation (Irish Independent, 15 viii).


PEECEE POLICE TURN ON EACH OTHER

In a hilarious reminder that witchcraft trials only ended in the eighteenth century when prosecutors found themselves accused of witchcraft, Metropolitan police supremo Sir Ian Blair (who had enthusiastically implemented the `anti-racist' Macpherson Report [which made stop and search difficult and thus triggered the ten-year surge in muggings under Labour] and declined to discipline Muslim police for hate speech about homosexuals) had papers filed against him by Britain's most senior Srindopakeshi police officer, Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur, suing him and alleging thirty instances of racial discrimination at Scotland Yard and the Home Office (Daily Telegraph, 21 viii; Sun, 23 viii).

{Headquarters members of the usually pious-leftist National Union of Students also started accusing each other of `racism' - in particular of joking about slavery and of alcohol consumption that upset Mueslis (Guardian, 22 viii). And Ghaffur turned out also to be proceeding for 'racism' against one of his own deputies -- the head of security for London's 2012 Olympic Games.}


BEAUTY REALISM

Pretty girls have a natural advantage when it comes to attracting men. But stating the obvious had the Mayor of Mount Isa, Queensland, Oz, in all sorts of trouble with femininnies (The Australian, 21 viii). John Molony suggested that, with five blokes for every girl, "the beauty-disadvantaged women should proceed to Mt Isa". When asked to explain what he meant, the heroic Mayor said "it would naturally seem that there may well be less competition." But this was "a public attack on women and a form of verbal and emotional abuse," yowled one domestic violence workerine. It was appalling, shrieked a Mount Isa council womyn. Apologies were demanded; Molony's resignation was sought; and this new martyr for realism made world world-wide headlines.


BRAIN - IQ REALISM

Elephants were reported to make fine counting distinctions - such as between 3 and 4 apples dropped previously in buckets - in line with their large brains (esp. relative to body size) and high post-birth brain growth (approaching that for humans, higher than for dolphins and chimpanzees, and much higher than in most animals) (Sun, 22 viii).


STREAMING BACKED

Twelve years after Rev. Bliar's prioritizing of `Education! Education! Education!' which included the proposal to expand streamed teaching (as proposed at the same time in The g Factor), and two years after Conservative Education spokesman Michael Gove reacted to Blair's failures by bizarrely proposing a cumbrous, costly and easily circumvented mass privatization of education, the Daily Telegraph returned to basics with a fine editorial against mixed-ability teaching which concluded as follows (22 viii).

"The teaching establishment, shaped by a training structure that remains in thrall to clapped-out liberal orthodoxies - to such an extent that most jobs are still advertised in The Guardian - refused to oblige [Mr Blair]. Eleven years on [following Labour's 1997 General Election victory], fewer than half of classes are set [i.e. streamed according to pupils' previous achievements in subjects taught]. In the remainder, mixed-ability teaching - which proceeds at the pace of the slowest - reigns. It is this enervating educational mindset that an incoming Conservative government will have to change. Tory policies to give schools real control of their affairs - including admissions and staff recruitment {Are there really such plans? - CRB} - will in time break this ruinous consensus. But it will require immense political will. Just ask Tony Blair."

SLAVERY REALISM

The rapid colonization of Africa by China (see previously) was documented by Reuters, which reckoned there might be as many as 50,000 Chinks working in Algeria alone and vastly undercutting African wage rates (inflated by Western largesse) in their rapidly expanding businesses (20 viii). AmRen correspondents reckoned Black Africans would soon be hollerin' for the return of laid-back slave-master Whitey! But the scale of China's export of its own labour suggested that China might have actually resolved to avoid using uncastrated Black slaves in the hope of avoiding the eventual fates of South America, much of the Caribbean, the USA, South Africa and Portugal.

ANTI-ISLAM CARTOONS OKAYED

A Canadian publisher, Ezra Levant, won a `free speech' case in Alberta over his republication of Danish cartoons (e.g. showing Mahomet as a paedophile) - but said he had only won because he was so `big' that peecee forces got frit and because the presiding judged actually liked what he had written to accompany the cartoons (National Post, 6 viii).


CHRISTIANS FOR SEGREGATION

Only about 5 percent of the USA's churches were racially integrated, and a half of these were actually in the process of becoming all-black or all-white, said Curtiss Paul DeYoung, co-author of "United by Faith," a book on interracial churches. {So the Anglican Communion was not alone in finding it virtually impossible to keep enthusiastic Black fundamentalists in harness with fey White liberals.}


GOOD OL' BOYS OF VIGOUR

Despite being thought by IQ's critics far-gone cases of ultramontagne reaction and surely impossible perversity, at least three of the retired members of the London School had attracted new wives within the previous decade - Richard Lynn (who had bowled over an English ex-headmistress), yrs truly (a Taiwanese art historian [naturalized British 2005]), and lately Art Jensen (an English secretary from academia who had worked with him when he sabbaticalled with Hans Eysenck in London's Maudsley Hospital in the 1950s).


E'BUGGER FESTIVAL RACE REALISM

Fresh from the five-star semi-sympathetic portrayal of Hitler in the one-man show of AH's last hour in his Fuehrerbunker by genius actor/journalist/historian Paul Webster, the wife and I attend Shakespeare's goriest and most racist play, Titus Andronicus, which knocks WS's portrayal of simple-minded Black jealousy (Othello), Scottish plotting (Macbeth) and Jewish greed and vengefulness (Shylock) into a cocked hat. Not content with being toyboy to the captured German queen Tamora (yielding a half-caste lovechild), the (Black) Moor Aaron organizes for his mistress the gang rape of her Roman rival Lavinia (daughter of the wise but much disobeyed General Titus), ending with Lavinia having her tongue cut out and her hands sliced off with the aim that she cannot tell the tale - handicaps which she overcomes using a paintbrush gripped between her teeth. Understandably, Papa Titus finally orders that Tamora's body be thrown to wild beasts and that Aaron (who had also organized the killing of Lavinia's husband and himself callously murdered his child's nurse merely so that word of his affair with Tamora should not leak out) be buried chest-deep and left to die of thirst and starvation. The psychopathic Aaron, however, is unrepentant to the end, proclaiming:

"If one good deed in all my life I did,
I do repent it from my very soul."


BLACKS NEED 24-HOUR CURFEW - IMPOSED BY BLACK MAYOR

The 15K-strong and 66%-Black area of West Helena, south-east Arkansas, had a two-week-long 24-hour curfew imposed on it by its Black mayor in view of its off-the-scale level of crime (including random shootings) - far higher than in White Appalachia, to which it was similar in poverty and destitution. Police armed with military rifles made 32 arrests in the first week of the curfew, resulting in calls for it to be extended to other (mainly Black) areas (Associated Press, 13 viii).


SLAVERY REALISM -IN JAMAICA

The Jamaica Observer published an unexpected paean to slavery in America for Black Africans, written by a Black journalist. E.g., Michael Dingwall wrote (9 viii) (cf. Black journalist Keith Richburg's Out of America):

"Slavery was our most important contact with modernity. It is through this "most heinous system ever created" that we blacks were able to understand some of the principles of global trade. Our ancestors were introduced to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade between Europe, Africa and the West Indies. Black Africa's part in the trade was the importation of European technology and the export of slaves. The importation of European technology was important-even though the Africans did not appreciate this importance at first. The export of slaves was also very important, especially for us in the West. As time went on, we blacks, both in Africa and especially in the Caribbean were, in many ways, being Europeanised and thus civilised."

Cf. "Thank God my grand-daddy got on the boat." -- Muhammed Ali, after visiting Zaire (for a title fight).


PAEDOHYSTERIA SURVIVED

Released early in in Vietnam (as a `model prisoner'), trim popstar Gary Glitter, 64 (once jailed for two months in Britain for kiddieporn), found himself pursued not only by UK tabloids and police but also, romantically, by his 35-year-old Cuban girlfriend Yudenia (by then with an extra child by a live-in lover) and the Vietnamese 19-year-old, Tu, whose relationship with GG (begun when she was 13) had led to his most recent confinement (News of the World, 17 viii 2008).


ALCOHOLISM SURVIVED

In July, rambunctious alcoholic Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood, 61, appeared to have dumped his 53-year-old wife of 23 loyal years standing (the marriage being the envy of the rock world) for petite blonde Muscovite cocktail waitress and lapdancer Ekaterina Ivanova, 19 -- though some of Ronnie's friends thought the besotted teenager (whisked off to Ronnie's luxury pad in the Holy Republic of Eire) just a muse for his painting and/or a drinking partner on a bender (Sun, 11 vii 2008 -- which went on to provide a resume of the Stones' babe-bagging; Sun, 18 vii - claiming Ronnie had also lately dated a 26-year-old Greek art student). But, as the wrinkly rocker came out of rehab to stay with friends and `re-adapt to the outside world,' friends claimed the already devoted Katia was well and truly bagged and was being bought a love nest in Richmond and an Afghan hound puppy and being given for her 20th birthday a Stones jacket and a nice drawing of her signed `Love, Ronnie' (News of the World, 17 viii 2008).}


DARING DUO STARTLE E'BUGGER BOOK FESTIVAL

I managed to raise the case of Simon Sheppard and Stephen Whittle (languishing in Santa Ana Prison, California, seeking political asylum in the US after being found guilty at Leeds Crown Court of publishing race hate thoughts against Jews, Muslims and other anti-Western and anti-British groups - see July) at a `Spiegeltent' discussion in Charlotte Square arranged by the liberal-left pro-free speech (for writers) group `PEN.'

No, the assembled worthies (proudly recalling their efforts of the Eighties (sic!) to help assorted endangered homosexualists, femininnies and campaigners for a Welsh Assembly - so long as such loopies refrained from rude criticism of Labour or the unions) had never heard of S&S - partly no doubt because of the astonishing month-long media blackout of the case arranged by the UK and US governments.

Yes, with the help of two young cronies, I once more proved myself the nigger in the woodpile - as I had three days previously when castigating leftie Marek Kohn and pacifist Cambridge prof Robert Hinde for discussing mankind's need for `trust' without once mentioning that the major cause of distrust was multicultural heterogeneity (esp. when Blacks are involved).

And, having disrupted the PEN love-in, the cronies and I then adjourned to the modern palace of the Ivory Lounge, west end of George Street (where Prince William used to drink), to celebrate our achievements while pondering the collapse of the West (for the media did manage to bring hourly confirmation of the failure of American policies in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Palestine, Georgia and Pakistan and of the failure of the American right to halt the rise of Borat Hussein Obama - likely to result in the burning of American cities whether or not Osama won the November Presidential Election).


"NO NEGRO PROBLEM" - TOP LEFTIST

Faced at the Edinburgh Book Festival with the ingenious London leftie, Kenan Malik FRSA, who admits there are some physical race differences of relevance to medicine but then cunningly insists race is a "social construct" that should only be used "in context" (i.e. under his supervision) and, since biologists are generally "divided" as to whether race is real (e.g. Craig Venter vs Neil Risch and Armand Leroi), it would be better to get heads back in the sand about race - not least the head of Borat Obama's pastor Jeremiah Wright who had become convinced that Whites were `left-brained' and Blacks were `right-brained' - I questioned the tall Indian-born (of Muslim parentage) ex-Trotskyite writer, broadcaster and LU.Surrey Visiting Fellow as follows.

I would like to congratulate Kenan Malik on his complex 35-minute dance around the the field of race; and especially on discussing `race realism' -- a term which was invented in Edinburgh. I sometimes feel Kenan resembles the Archbishop of Canterbury: struggling to reconcile irreconcilable Christians and Muslims and at risk of falling between two stools. But no matter!

Getting away from the lofty problems of whether race is a scientific concept, I would like to ask Kenan a strictly practical question. As he probably agrees, the major worldwide racial difference is that in intelligence between Whites and East Asians on the one hand and Blacks on the other. As I'm quite sure he agrees, Whites have largely fail to integrate Blacks into the modern cultures and lifestyles which Whites themselves have created. For example, a million Blacks make up 50% of the USA's prison population though Blacks only constitute 13% of the general US population. Whether in the USA, the UK, the Caribbean, France or sub-Saharan Africa (where the average Black IQ is only around 70), Blacks present huge problems of crime, sexual disease, single parenting, educational failure and destitution.

Yet once upon a time Blacks were broadly integrated - employed, fit and healthy, and aspiring to Christianity and family values. That system was of course slavery; and its abolition - a British Empire `first' - made Blacks unemployable, with Whites having to resort to bringing Chinese labour to the Americas and Indian labour to south-east Africa. Now, today, it is China which has plans to integrate Blacks: there are already at least a million Chinese in Africa selling guns to despots in return for minerals and building bridges and railways. So does Kenan think the Chinese imperial effort will be likely to solve the Negro problem?

As the Pepper Theatre tent rang with cries from the sedate midday middle-class audience of "Neo-Nazi!", KM gave only this reply before passing rapidly to other questioners: "There is no Negro problem." But at least my art historian wife was radiant that I had, for the third time this Festival, I had managed to put the boot into the rump of an overpaid ignoracist..

MULTICULTI MAYHEM

As bone analysis revealed that 50% of the 800 sailors on Henry VIII's great lost ship `Mary Rose' were from southern Europe (probably captured Spaniards), the loss of the ship was attributed to sailors not understanding orders in English to close gunwales as the ship made a sharp turn in a high wind (Times, 1 viii) {budding European Army please note}.


WHERE TO FIND CHILD ABUSE

While 200 paedohysterical policepersons of Britain worked tirelessly in Jersey for the fourth month on non-discovery of evidence of child murder or anything else very much at Haut de la Garenne ex-orphanage (where Jimmy Savile had been a frequent visitor c. 1970), it turned out that child abuse was "endemic" in St Nelson Mandela's South Africa, with 44% of boys claiming to have been raped by someone (most often a woman) by age 18 (AmRen, 2 viii).


AFFIRMATIVE RACISM OPPOSED

Bringing amazement and pleasure to conservatives and libertarians, elderly US Presidential contender John McCain said he would support an Arizona ballot proposal banning affirmative action (i.e. discrimination in favour of `minorities') (AmRen, 2 viii) - though some thought his reversal of his historic pro-AA position a sign that he was finally losing his marbles in his desperation to cling on to a few White votes as most young Whites sought absolution for the sins of their race in the arms of the mulatto Boring Hussein Osama..


COURTS BACK RACE SURVIVAL

Sexual harassment was O.K. as it ensured Russians would breed, a St Petersburg judge ruled. A Russian advertising executive who sued her boss for sexual harassment lost her case after a judge ruled that employers were obliged to make passes at female staff to ensure the survival of the human race (Daily Telegraph, 30 vii, Adrian Blomfield, Moscow). A 22-year-old female executive had alleged she had been locked out of her office after she refused to have intimate relations with her 47-year-old boss, but the judge called the boss "gallant" rather than criminal.


ISRAELI RACE REALISM

After 30 years of admitting 120,000 self-styled Jews from Ethiopia (mean national IQ 64), Israel announced it was slamming the door on further such immigration - for the Ethiopian immigrants and their descendants had turned out to be uneducable, unemployable and poor (despite government underwriting of mortgages for them) (Daily Telegraph, 6 viii). Leaders of the already-immigrated Ethiopians promptly accused their hosts of `discrimination' and `prejudice.'


BRAIN-IQ LINKS ADMITTED

Scientific American (ix) admitted that brain size (especially in some areas, e.g. frontal and cingulated) and other neurological indices (energy consumption) had been linked in recent work to intelligence -- though words like `Rushton' and `race' were avoided and the article had to conclude with the reassurance that Einstein could not have got where he did without the help of friends and family.


LEFTISTS IN DENIAL

As the mighty Alexander Solzhenytsin died, leaving his martyrs' monument to communism's still largely unadmitted 36 years of mass-million slaughter (1917-1953), the LUniversity of Edinburgh refused to acknowledge or discuss its 2«-year effort to end academic free speech in the U.K. (1996-1998) and the Jewish Simon Wiesenthal Centre, busy pursuing some decrepit Nazi death-camp medic in South America, refused to admit the culpability of many Jews in the barbaric crimes of the Soviets (Kevin Myers, Belfast Telegraph, 8/8/8).


RACE REALISM REVIVES

"Human kind cannot bear very much reality." Thus spoke Nobelist T.S.Eliot through his hero archbishop Thomas a Becket in Murder in the Cathedral (Part II) - so Edinburgh's Festivallers were reminded in a fine dramatized performance of the poem in Old St Paul's Church, and history had borne Eliot out in the assault on Western families, freedoms and races by welfarism, socialism and peecee multiculturalism. But from cocaine and knife-crime capital London came word of a possible new trend: for top girl singer, the Jewish, beehived and druggy Amy Whitehouse (her pop star boyfriend recently jailed) had been recorded singing of "Blacks, Pakis, Gooks and Nips" (baring and squeezing her nipples at the appropriate moment) - shocking the pious News of the World with her "racism" (10 viii).


LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON II

Although the High Court had found Max Mosley (see above, April) to have had his privacy unreasonably invaded by the News of the World (which had been unable to prove that Mosley's hours-long masochist sessions with German-speaking prostitutes dressed as prison guards had an expressly Nazi theme), the public interest of the exposure was further attested by an entry in George Orwell's diary of August 29, 1939, concerning Max's Fascist father, Oswald: "Miscellaneous: It appears from reliable private information that Sir O. Mosley is a masochist of the extreme type in his sexual life." (Reported Times, 25 vii, and Private Eye, 8 viii).
