I was reading Alex Kurtagic’s latest over at the Occidental Observer (Are Leftists Clever?) and came across this:

[A]nother anti-racist activist, writing in 2007, shows this is a stock phrase [the phrase “a vast majority” when it is used as a bludgeon against those opposed to public opinion on any given subject]:

“There should be a two-pronged attack on the fascists: dealing with their lies on the ground, and dealing with the social problems that lead to resentment and move people to vote for the BNP in a protest vote. We know the vast majority of people in this country abhor the racist, anti-Semitic and Islamophobic ideas of the party.”

I was struck suddenly by the strangeness of the term “protest vote.” Does anybody else find sinister and Orwellian the idea that a vote for the interests of one’s own people is assigned to “protest”? Isn’t all voting a form of assent or dissent? Well OK, voting intentions always have been substantially manufactured. We generally vote the way we are supposed to.  Now, it seems that when we don’t, we merely demonstrate our unorthodoxy, and reveal our impenitence to our smiling - or not-so-smiling - khaki-clad, latte-drinking, platitude-spouting, conformity-enforcing, wannabe Torquemadas of the modern age.

Kurtagic’s anti-fa believes not just that there should be an attack carried out by the overwhelming or vast majority on “the fascists”, but that there could be such an attack. These “fascists”, who are already marginalized by virtue of their political eccentricity, could realistically be attacked by the numerical majority!  After all, manufactured political violence is only a notch or two up on manufactured voting intentions, and we all know they’re real enough.

So that phrase “a vast majority” concerns me, as it concernes Kurtagic. It should rightfully concern any person espousing a minority viewpoint. Generally, when a small band of people assembles for the express purpose of attacking others or engaging in criminal activity we attach to the group a label: gang, bandits, syndicate, mafia, etc. However, in circumstances where the gang is comprised of an overwhelming majority of the populace, we attach to the conspirators the very dignified sounding appellation, the public, and their crimes are sanctioned, their opinions received as wisdom, and the blood they shed and tread on redeems.  Where’s the crime there?

Historically, the multitude has proven itself to be the greatest and most harsh tyrant of all. It exercises near total control in its wildly arbitrary and indiscriminately vast decrees that encompass nearly every human activity, subjecting even the minutia of the lives of the people to its dominion, ever expanding its empire by the pressure of peerage, it rules us through a network of informants from whom we can never secure even the smallest sanctuary or modicum of peace.

Who watches the watcher’s watchers?

The public can be a petty and capricious bitch of a custodian. Woe to the man who casts his vote against the multitude! Who, after all, would protest the people save a lunatic?

Although he is unquestionably one of the most irksome presenters on British television, Dominic Littlewood has one major saving grace; here and there he presents a programme which has real educational value. On March 9, 2010, he presented the second of five episodes of Fake Britain, which among other things showed a police raid on an illegal factory where bank cards were being cloned, literally by the hundred.

Littlewood also visited the Yorkshire town of Ilkley where shopkeepers and publicans had been on the receiving end of a blitz of forged £20 notes, which had left many of them out of pocket, but the most interesting cameo was where he brought in a counterfeit coin specialist – a former employee of the Royal Mint – who in a near two hour shopping session in the capital managed to find seven fake one pound coins. There was probably nothing too surprising about that, nor with the claim that the police would not be the slightest bit interested if you, dear reader, were to take a fake pound coin to your local cop shop. Such a course of action may leave you out of pocket, but a dud coin passed here and there will not prompt any sort of investigation while the police have terrorists to chase and motorists to harass.

But the really surprising revelation was the reaction, or rather the non-reaction, of the Royal Mint to fake coins. Though it is estimated that some two and a half percent of one pound coins in circulation have been produced illegally, the Mint does not bother to take them out of circulation. While a forged twenty pound note will most definitely leave you out of pocket and may see you questioned by the police if not actually arrested, it is quite likely that you will continue to spend your quota of fake pound coins in your local shops, and as long as neither the shopkeeper nor the bank notices (or cares) your fake money will be every bit as good as the real thing.

The clock is ticking.  The world turns and as the year changes, the decade changes too.  If our time is ever to come, the ten years which lie ahead must see the potential in our movement cease to be just that, just potential, and progress, and power and confidence begin to come through.  It would be an unthinkable and terrible failing if nationalism in the European world arrives at the end of “the teenies”, as I suppose the MSM will call them, without that much, at least, to its credit.

But that is for tomorrow.  For tonight, drink and be merry, and sing the auld song.  Good luck to you, and good luck to us all.

Here for all seasonal romantics and climate change “deniers” is a picture shot in our back garden by my daughter on the morning of 18th December, just as the Copenhagen Conference was slowly, delightfully falling through the floor and the threat of carbon taxation was receding.  Virtually all the snow has also receded now from our part of the world, and the Met Office will not be declaring a White Christmas tomorrow, except north of the border.  No matter, it has been a good end to the nationalist year in this country.

The high point, of course, was the election in June of Nick Griffin and Andrew Brons to the European Parliament, closely followed by the blue funk into which this happy event tipped the entire political and media Establishment.  Now we all await the favour of Gordon Brown to know when the next electoral challenge for the BNP, the General Election, will take place.  The smart money appears to be going on March or April.

However the BNP fares in its target seats, the story for the party next year will be one of re-adjustment to the new Cameron government.  If recent form is anything to go by, we are looking at a minimum of two terms of Tory rule.  So adjust the party must, in my view.

Not just in Britain but all across the European world the decade that is just beginning will surely not be like the decade that went before it.  Our collective situation will grow darker, that is for sure.  But the political options which nationalists understood long ago are crystallising for more and more of our people, and the arguments are clarifying.  It is our privilege and duty at this small blog to participate, insomuch as we are able, in the furtherance of that process.  On behalf of all the contributors to our site, then, I wish its readers and, especially, its commentariat not only a happy Christmas but an intellectually adventurous and politically rewarding 2010.

I’ve been mailed links to two resources by different readers.  Each resource has high research value, and I thought your attention should be drawn to them.

The first is the authoritative source for anyone who wants to examine the spoken parliamentary record - like, for example, when the post-war Labour government first decided to invite Jamaican immigrants into our midst.  This, of course, is Hansard and is:

generated from information from Hansard, the Official Report of debates in Parliament.  Information presented here is generated from the publicly available XML files ...  There’s Hansard itself; by volume, just the Lords sittings, Commons sittings or Westminster Hall sittings. You can also view Written Answers, Written Statements, Lords reports or Grand Committee reports.

We also have extracted lists of People who are recorded as having spoken, Constituencies, Offices, Acts, Bills and Divisions. You can also see information about the Source files containing the original XML and the Data files we generate from them.

I am indebted to JB for the link.

The second link is for something quite different but no less useful, and it is to “perhaps the most comprehensive biomedical site on the net”, according to the reader, James, who sent it:

BioMedSearch is an enhanced version of the NIH PubMed search that combines MedLine/PubMed data with data from other sources to make the most comprehensive biomedical literature search available. BioMedSearch also provides advanced account features that allow saved searches, alerts, saving documents to portfolios, commenting on documents and portfolios, and sharing documents with other registered users. Registering for BioMedSearch is free.

MR readers are a useful lot, I’m pleased to say.

Social Policy

The first duty and highest goal of the Federal government will be:

To match the conditions of life of the British people to the attributes of their nature, the interests of their blood and the wishes of their hearts.

In social policy, that implies a far-reaching, even total revolution of the mind so that the people may, after so many decades of officially engendered self-censorship, self-degradation and self-estrangement, approach themselves once again with clear eyes and clear conscience, and begin to live the life they deserve.

This revolution of the mind will not be accomplished solely by the undoing of past crimes against them or by the heavy push in the direction of the good which government can give.  The ideas that commend the good - ideas which, though they have been known by some thinking nationalists for a long time, are not known by the common man - must fill all the voids left by the driving out of the destructive and criminal ideas of the past.  That is the true foundation on which the political future will rest.  Accordingly, government has a role in promoting not only those ideas through its own machinery but the new intellectual class that has generated them, and can carry them and the politics of the new age forward.

That said, here is an outline of how the nationalist “heavy push” will be structured:

Nation-building and the Constitution

The first task of a nationalist government in these islands, assuming that government comes into being through democratic elections and not through other means, is to declare this coming into government an act of revolution with all the destructive and creative legal and political powers of change that are predisposed by such events.  Since by this declaration the government will lose its mandate, having disavowed the process which brought it to power, it shall rely upon a priori revolutionary status for the legitimacy to rule.  Further, it will attach provisionality to this status, it being necessary that a provisional government shall enact the transition from the old national settlement to the new.

First and foremost in the process of change, then, will be a Declaration of the Impending Dissolution of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, along with the voiding of the current Constitution serving the Union.  A new state, based on the principle of federation, shall be brought into being.  England, Scotland and Wales shall equally be member states within it, while Northern Ireland shall have the status of a self-governing territory, along with the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.  The division of powers between the Federal government in London and the subsidiary governments shall be established in a Constitutional Conference to be held within 50 days of the Declaration. 

The Conference will settle all issues pertaining to the new national settlement, including the Articles of Federation and the adaption of certain elements of the existing British Constitution to the new founding Constitution.  These latter will include the role of Monarchy, membership and powers of the House of Lords, the Rule of Law, Habeas Corpus, judicial independence and trial by jury, the supremacy of Parliament, free democratic elections, separation of power, etc.

One of the interesting side affects of contemplating, writing or commenting on the issue of Europe and her people’s identity is the general awareness it awakens in one in regard to the wide world around us. Accepting the reality of race and its impact on actions and events makes the world smaller in the sense that it becomes more understandable.  But simultaneously it becomes much larger than it might initially have been thought. And with that realization comes the need/urge to explore that larger world whose depth and richness so exceeds by every measure the shallow rubric of “one race, the human race”.  The promoters of that particular monotony, having locked themselves away in the dark corridors of their egalitarian universities/dungeons to listen only to their own echoes, would never accept nor could ever comprehend the true diversity of the world.

When you walk out into the light of day and embrace the world as it is, what one begins to grasp, for example, is that to say ‘a tree is a tree’ is a bit of a misleading and tragic casual, modern, nomenclature. A pine tree and an oak may both be called trees, yet only the dull of mind, heart and understanding would not see that they are in may ways as different as one species is from another. And if you cannot understand or are not willing to see and accept those differences, then for you a pine tree does not exist. It does not live and it does not die. It does not grow needle like leaves instead of the lush leaves of the oak and it does not bear the cones that adorn many a Christmas wreath. What a small and pitiful worldview that must be.

For those of us who have accepted and embraced the world as it is, the world is alive with color and meaning. It is full of characters, opposing ideas, varying places and interesting people. For us, Germany is a place second and a people first. The same is true of England, Scotland, France, Japan, Mongolia etc. These are not simply zip codes but living organisms. They have as distinct a history and personality as the individuals who collectively compose them. And that is an important point that those who embrace reality understand. A people do not inhabit a nation, they compose one. If the people of Ireland were to pack up and move, en mass, to central Asia, then Ireland would be in Asia and not on that little island next to Britain.
