There are some things you just can’t un-see. And no, I’m not talking about the Cats movie. Although I wish it were something so silly and inconsequential. Many years ago, for instance, I saw a video of an actual stoning in some Middle-Eastern shithole. It kept

Harry Palmer The music has stopped once more after another triennial game of musical chairs and we are inflicted again with the usual pick’n mix self-serving collection of MPs who dance to the tune of their puppet masters. Will anyone notice a difference? The parliamentarians who have found
Bob Jones nopunchespulled.com I began this Blog 3 years back with the onset of Covid and the lockdown. But as I’ve advised for some time now, I’m pulling stumps with tomorrow’s election. One reason is I spend half the year abroad and it causes me some
Call them “surrender monkeys” if you dare (in fact, they’re one of the most militarily successful nations of the last 150 years), but at least the French have had the boules to do what Australian governments neither dare nor even want to do. Where the NSW government cravenly allowed
When American soldiers liberated Dachau and other concentration camps and discovered the full depth of Nazi barbarity, General Dwight D. Eisenhower made a point of touring the camps, with not only Generals George Patton and Omar Bradley, but a film crew in tow. Because, he said, he knew that some

October 10th, 2023 In a bit of a departure for me, I am going to comment on non-UK happenings and offer some opinions rather than my usual objective comments in my letters. The Gaza incursion was an act of unbelievable barbarism and will require high degrees of diplomatic skill
Around the world, leaders immediately declared their unequivocal support for Israel as news of the horrifying Hamas terror attacks unfolded. They’ve immediately taken steps to ensure the safety of their local Jewish populations. Compare that to Australia’s shameful government, where the PM took twelve hours to respond, while
The Australian left continue to cover themselves with the filth of Palestinian terrorism. The same day that Greens politicians marched with Sydney Muslims chanting “gas the Jews”, and the Greens leader tweeted, not to condemn Hamas but Israel, Pakistani-born Muslim Greens senator Mehreen Faruqi tweeted that it was “disgusting”
A whole lot of people are outing themselves as garbage humans in the wake of Israel’s horror. From odious Greens politicians and violent-extremism-supporting “countering violent extremism experts” bellowing that they “stand with Palestine” and Hamas, to cretinous pornstar Mia Khalifa whining that Hamas’ disgusting snuff videos weren’
