Fahrenheit 451

A society where the people are kept dumb by constant radio/TV shows including 'soaps' and where all books are burned... it is very interesting.

These programmes only last for a set amount of time on the BBC site, so give it a listen as soon as you can.

Iraqi Bombs, Paedophiles, Tony Blair and Happy Marriage

This morning me and Mrs FC had a "debate."

I won't say argument because after 5 years of wedded bliss we don't argue [we've been married much longer, but 5 were blissful ;-)].

So what would cause us to disagree?

We were watching an interview with Kevin Ivison, a former bomb disposal expert who worked in Iraq with the British Army. In his book 'Red One: A Bomb Disposal Expert on the Front Line' he explains his work and the shortcomings of the British Army.

Here's a synopsis from Waterstones:

This is the gripping true story of a young bomb disposal officer and his terrifying experiences in Iraq facing daily rocket attacks and terrorist bombs. When two of his colleagues are killed by a roadside bomb, Kevin Ivison is called in to defuse a second even deadlier bomb just a hundred yards from the bodies of his friends. To make things worse, the entire area is under fire from snipers, and a crowd of angry Iraqis have begun to hurl petrol bombs...With little chance of living through this impossible task, Kevin leaves final messages for his loved ones and sets out alone towards the bomb that he is sure will be the last thing he sees. In this gut-wrenching tale of heroism and survival, Kevin Ivison explains why he chose to be a bomb disposal expert in the first place, how he found the courage to face his death, and the unendurable stress that has given him nightmares ever since.

Whilst watching this brave man being interviewed Mrs FC revealed her radical side when she said that paedophiles should be taken out of prison, sent to war zones and made to clear the bombs.

I interjected that it should be Tony Blair and the other warmongers who were made to do bomb disposal.

There was a distinct frostiness in the air as I put the jam on my toast and stirred my tea.

Then I rescued the situation by telling Mrs FC about how Neo Cons in America were already demanding Obama should attack Iran and how Hans Blix (former UN Weapons Inspector) was saying how ridiculous this was in the shadow of an illegal war over non-existent WMDs.

She concurred, and wedded bliss reigned once more in Le Maison Degrelle.

A lesson for all you newlywed youngsters methinks.

E Michael Jones on the Jewish Revolutionary Spirit

The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit: Must Read Book for ALL Nationalists

It's an exciting time fellow "extremists."

Rarely does a book come about which makes me salivate at the very prospect of getting hold of a copy.

No, inattentive and truculent reader, don't you dare mention The Beano annual!

I'm referring naturally to the latest offering from E. Michael Jones.

"Who he?" you ask. Well you should have read the review of his blockbuster Degenerate Moderns in FC magazine, a book that shows exactly who is responsible the cultural morass we find ourselves mired in, and how they achieved it.

In the Neo-Conned volumes (blockbusters in their own right!) he penned a piece detailing the role of the Neo Cons in the lies told to bulldoze America into a needless and criminal war.

E. Michael Jones has the reputation of knowing the facts in world affairs and geo-politics, as well as the forces behind them. He is also well-regarded by many for having the bravery in stating the truth -- no matter how unpalatable for some -- and calling a spade a spade.

For how can we be aware of who the criminals are or how to right wrongs if we do not know the facts?

A few months ago a friend said there were plans afoot in the States for a new book by E Michael Jones, and in this book he would take on the big boys! He was going to go hell for leather and expose the role of World Jewry in political upheaval.

This was going to be a barn-stormer of a book and would further cast the author as the hate-figure so loathed by anti-racists, Communists, atheists, Zionists etc.

The Jewish Revolutionary Spirit and its Impact on World History by E Michael Jones is available now!

In the USA it's $48 (plus $8 s&h) from: Fidelity Press, 206 Marquette Ave, South Bend, IN 46617, USA. (Visa etc. phone: 574 289 9786.

In the UK it's £29 inc p&p from: D.M. McCarthy, 6 St Andrews, London, W7 2NX.

-- For all the trolls and stirrers looking in, FC has no link(s) with either of the above.

So go fill yer boots.

If you don't know who the enemy is, you cannot possibly begin to fight against them.


"Dr E Michael Jones... writes in a felicitous manner, and draws attention to rarely mentioned religious and historical facts." -- Stephen J. Sniegoski Ph.D (author of The Transparant Cabal: The Neo-Conservative Agenda, War in the Middle East, and the National Interest of Israel).

"Jones is as profound as he is prolific. He's also versatile, original, combative, and fearless, naming names and drawing blood." -- Joseph Sobran (patriotic columnist).

Pat Buchanan: America Faces Hitler's Revenge

Berlin 1945: Criminals & Heroes, Tragedy & Lessons

I have just finished reading Anthony Beevor's book Berlin The Downfall 1945 and what strikes you more than anything is not only the heroism of the troops who knew everything was finished (especially the Charlemagne volunteers trapped in Berlin), but the sheer horror of the German women in East Prussia, Silesia, Berlin etc. who faced mass rape by hordes of Soviet soldiers.

What has this got to do with the above clip?

Well far from liberating the Ukraine, sad to say the German authorities (under Koch) treated the Ukrainians terribly and what would have been a huge volunteer army possibly of millions never materialised.

Patriot Ukrainians even turned from fighting the Soviets to fighting the Germans, only to fight the Soviets again right through to the 1950s.

Far from realising a huge crusade against atheistic Communism and its commissars and uniting Europe against a Bolshevik terror-machine, those like Koch ensured the destruction of a regime which let down those clamouring for freedom from Communism.

Beevor makes a few interesting points when it comes to the Reds, whom folk like Searchlight and Anti Fascist Action would have us believe delivered Europeans from the "chains of nazism."

• The Soviets could not have shipped the men and material necessary for their huge assault against the Seelow Heights and Berlin were it not for the Studebakers and other equipment given to the Soviets by the Americans.
• The German Communists who hid their membership cards from the Gestapo greeted the Red Army as liberators. This did not stop the Soviet troops from raping the Communist women and trashing the homes of Communists.
• Whilst Soviet troops raped their way through Poland and Germany (yes even Polish women weren't safe) the Asian areas of the USSR suffered such starvation, locals even turned to cannibalism.
• Poles were treated badly by the Soviets as Stalin did not trust them and the Patriot Army which fought the Germans were treated as saboteurs by the Communists.
• Whilst the Americans gave the Soviets all the details of their intentions, the Soviets told the Western Powers nothing aside from disinformation, and to appease the Reds the Americans and British armies were deliberately held at the Elbe when they could have taken Berlin (and saved millions of women from rape).

The main issue is surely the fate of Poland and here is my suggestion for students to ask their teachers:

1. We declared war on 'Nazi Germany' because they invaded Poland on Sept 1st 1939. Why didn't we declare war on Soviet Russia when they invaded Poland on Sept 17th 1939?
2. Why did we go to war to free Poland in 1939 only to see Poles delivered to invasion, slavery, puppet government etc. in 1945? With the evidence of Katyn Forest and Poles shipped to Siberia from 1944 onwards isn't the idea that the war was all about Poland is surely laughable?

Food for thought.

The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion!

Yes!

It's true.

Spread the word.

Let your friends know.

Tell the neigh- bours.

Break out the celebratory pork pies!

Good news for all fellow "extremists" and conspiracy lovers!

After a long wait, during which we've fielded many enquiries about their availability, The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion are now back in stock at FC.

Yes! The bane of every Zionist. The book every traitor and liberal likes to dismiss as a "forgery." At the name of this book, turncoats and White renegades tremble with rage and fear.

So get the book whilst it's still legal! Read for yourself the plans our overlords had planned for Christian civilisation over 100 years ago and see for yourself how much has come true, and read about their planned methodology (which you will recognise!).

If this was a "Tsarist forgery" it had the stunning good luck to foresee the exact attacks on our nations and peoples, the methods used to undermine us and the ways in which the Freemasonic/Zionist political elite would seek to rule us.

The book is available at the link below.

Whilst getting it, please look out for our other conspiracy and political books which tie-in, especially those on Freemasonry.

Buy The Protocols today and sock it to the Zionists!

GK Chesterton Vs Paul McKenna

The G in G.K. Chesterton stands for Gilbert, but it's my experience that it could easily stand for 'great' - though GKC himself would be loathe to hear such sentimentality or sycophantism.

"But why great?" you ask. And I will tell you, oh inquisitive and forbearing reader!

You see I find that when a situation occurs -- whether it's a thought on the latest politically correct fad, or some particular political con and I struggle to find adequate words to encapsulate the situation with all its ridiculousness, seriousness and craziness -- there is usually some little gem hidden away written so long ago by GKC that skewers the situation with the kind of dry wit and exact language that escapes the rest of us so often.

I'll give you an example.

The other day I was in one of the main bookshop chain outlets just killing time and browsing really, with a couple of the FC sprogs in tow, when we noticed the preponderance of books by hypnotist Paul McKenna.

I'm not sure if they'd be called "lifestyle" or "self-betterment" books, anyway I'm sure you know the sort.

We were laughing because one was called something like "How I Can Make you Rich." I told the sprogs not to buy the book - making them quite a few pounds better off immediately.

I then quipped - oh the gift of wit! - that the book should be called "You Can Make Me Rich."

What a talent for humour! I was carried out of the shop on the shoulders of two chaps such was the general merriment. At least that's what I thought till they said they were 'security' and I was banned from the shop for telling third-rate jokes everyone had heard before.

But seriously, there were a plethora of these books and a quick web search led me to find a few more of McKenna's books of wealth, health and much more besides.

Are we, as people, really so pathetic that we need to buy the warblings of these Uri Geller self-styled "experts" to make our lives "better?"

It was just a few days later that I found a piece in a collection of GKC's essays, which we keep in the smallest room in the house for family and visitors alike, entitled "The Fallacy of Success" in which he addresses this very fad.

You see such self-improvement books are nothing new!

Here's the piece by GKC - which I located on the net - that deals with these books, the authors and how they approach this thing from entirely the wrong angle.

GKC can do the subject justice, way better than I could. In fact, GKC would have told a better joke in the bookshop too!

The Fallacy of Success

Capitalists McNabbed!

I've just started reading (after taking it from my pile of "waiting to be read books" - there, I won't mention my piles anymore) The Church and the Land by Fr Vincent McNabb.

I wasn't sure what the book was going to be like... I kind of half expected lots of heavy economic or theological diatribes and/or dialogues, heady stuff and disturbing, but like trying to wade through treacle.

Still, I plucked up the courage and opened the book. After all, I knew McNabb had been a key figure in the world of Chesterton and Belloc and had a profound influence on the entire Distribiutist movement of the 20s and 30s (he died in 1943).

Indeed, if you get the book and read the intro's by Dr William Fahey and Hilaire Belloc you'll realise just how important McNabb was (and is!) and furthermore how central to things Belloc believed him to be.

I needn't have worried.

The book is split into essays (rather it is a compilation of essays and articles) and so it is quite easy to pick up and (if so inclined) put down.

At present I am about 10 essays into the book and a few things shine through:

1. McNabb's undoubted intellect. The copious footnotes are perfect because they allow the modern, uneducated sorts (hey - no finger pointing) to understand his many examples and quotes.

2. McNabb's undoubted outrage at Social Injustice. Read his piece "The Voice of the Irish" on social conditions in major Irish and British cities and you will be shocked.

3. McNabb's deep-seated Christian faith. His outrage is for those made in the image of God being treated like cattle, like cogs in a machine to be used, abused and cast aside.

4. McNabb's common sense. He doesn't plead for paradise on earth (like some kind of Masonic/Communist Revolutionary), but merely asks for people to be treated with Charity (in its true sense). In fact he is a true humanitarian whilst not only failing to eschew, but actively attacking all the false values of today's humanitarians. I think it was Fahey who said that McNabb understood the Truth that we are Children of God instead of the Masonic 'Brotherhood of Man' (I never liked their 70s hits anyway). When you read McNabb you understand how Capitalism is intrinsically evil, pushing our folk off the land into single room "apartments" with no running water, never mind a toilet!

Some (notably American Neo-Cons) will queue up to call McNabb a Communist, at once betraying their lack of understanding of Communism, of Christianity, of Distributism and of Capitalism.

Yet ignorance is no defence, especially when defaming and slandering someone (dead or alive) especially when the smallest amount of reading (mayhaps that is beyond their attention span) will dispel any clouds of doubt they may have.

McNabb didn't want families moved from Capitalist slums into Communist grey tower-blocks.

McNabb didn't want the family farm turned into either an agri-business absentee-landlord churning out chemically soaked fodder to give profits to insurance conglomerates or Communist collective "farms" with all produce going to the State.

To make McNabb into a Communist is to go against everything he believed in, just as the Reds might want to turn McNabb into a Capitalist... For when a man attacks Capitalism and Communism, or when a man proposes an alternative which is diametrically opposed to Capitalism and Communism, it is not good enough for proponents of either Materialist creed to point the finger and fabricate twisted strands of "logic" to state that he was in reality one or other of the things he opposed.

In closing, though as I stated I still have a further 130 (or so) pages to go in this absorbing book I would ask anyone fortunate enough to obtain a copy (fingers crossed we can get a few to sell through FC) to read the essay: St Thomas Aquinas on Town Planning.

In this essay McNabb shows himself to be acutely aware of problems before his time, having read the classics and applying their lessons to the modern age.

After advancing arguments for self-sufficiency and that towns-folk would be better suited to being farmers outside the city walls, rather than traders within them, McNabb states that Aristotle, in Politics, asserts that:

"...the fellowship of foreignors greatly corrupts the morals of citizens. The reason is because it must happen that foreignors, having been brought up on other laws and customs, act in ways very different from those of the citizens. Thus their example will draw the citizen to imitate them; and the good estate of the commonwealth will be disturbed."

So far each of McNabb's essays - even the seemingly frivolous such as the one about ladies treating their dogs as babies (and this was 80 years before the current trend for lap-dogs dressed up and molly-coddled by the vacuous, the idle rich or wannabe-"celebrities") - has had the power to make the reader stop and think.

Belloc says that after being in the presence of this devout Dominican and feeling his "holiness" that "all other qualities sink away into nothingness."

Even one of his Hyde Park Corner adversaries (E.A. Siderman) wrote of McNabb:

"...he at once impressed his listeners with his personality, and with his appearance Sunday after Sunday, he became a great favourite."

Certainly, from what I've read so far, McNabb can be counted as one of the great Crusaders for Social Justice for our people.

Would that our age would throw forward such intellects and spokesman. As our people live on dole handouts, or in insecure dead-end McJobs... as more people have their homes repossessed or are forced to pay obscene mortgage payments to the banks (who always announce billions in profits): we need another Vincent McNabb.

As our land is occupied, as the air and soil is polluted, as wage slavery continues and urban "existence" continues, let us hope and pray for more McNabbs to raise the banner of National Freedom, Social Justice, Widespread Property and a Return to the Land.

It's not an easy message. It has none of the glamour of adverts for Coca Cola. It has none of the ease of Yuppies, Dinkies and Yummies driving their 4x4s around Chelsea en route to another dinner party.

But since when has the Truth been pretty, easy or fashionable?

Certainly not in living memory...

The Vincent McNabb Society

Look out for this poem about McNabb, written after his sermon at the funeral of Cecil Chesterton:

A poet heard you preach and told me this:
While listening to your argument unwind
He seemed to leave the heavy world behind;
And liberated in a bright abyss
All burdens and all load and weight to shed;
Uplifted like a leaf before the wind,
Untrammelled in a region unconfined,
He moved as lightly as the happy dead.
And as you read the message of Our Lord
You stumbled over the familiar word,
As if the news now sudden to you came;
As if you stood upon the holy ground
Within the house filled with mighty sound
And lit with Pentecostal tongues of flame.

P.S. Which other blog would have the social writing of Fr McNabb followed by the politically astute warblings of Stiff Little Fingers? What value for money!

Capitalists + Socialists = Slavery

Why is it those born with a silver spoon in their mouth are always so keen to tell the rest of us how "property is theft" and the government should take our rights, our property and our freedom from us (aka Socialism)?

I was chatting to a work colleague today and he brought up the example of a friend of his family. This lad comes from a wealthy family. He has always had everything bought for him, and had his university fees paid.

He became a druggy hippy, doped-up more often than not. He dropped out of uni and now travels around on various "right on" campaigns, most of it bank-rolled by mummy and daddy, backed up by hand-outs via the tax-payer.

Of course these kinds of examples are well known. Little mummy's boys and girls all gunked up and traveling the world to fight Capitalism, whilst all-too-Capitalist jobs and properties pay for their lifestyle via mater and pater.

Of course this mirrors the fact that since its inception, Socialism has been bank-rolled by the mega-rich and Capitalist corporations (which takes us onto the whole Kosher nature of Capitalism and Socialism) e.g. in the run-up to the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917.

There was an example in a journal recently of the major writer against "globalisation" being published by one of the huge publishing houses - a typical multinational big business!

Many would say, and I would be inclined to agree, that both Socialism and Capitalism aren't about "the people" - neither give two figs for us proles - but about keeping a group of select few (chosen few?) in power.

Capitalism worships the Dollar, Socialism worships the State - but both are against all natural and normal instincts which provide for well-balanced and peaceful communities and nations.

The family becomes an inconvenience, faith becomes "superstition," race becomes "hateful," nationalism becomes "backwards" and so on - not that Capitalism or Socialism is against misusing any of these in a sentimental way when they need to (the ends always justify the means for the Terrible Twins of Capitalism and Socialism).

Years ago Hilaire Belloc wrote that we were headed for the Servile State.

Capitalism and Socialism, according to Belloc, were both headed for systems whereby the workingman would become little more than a cog in a machine.

Little could Belloc have realised that things would get so bad. The rich, the big businesses, the banks own more and more - and the people are mortgaged and in debt as never before.

Meanwhile Socialism has crept in everywhere with more government control, more needless laws encroaching our basic and ancient freedoms, more anti-national, anti-family and anti-race laws passed.

And who runs this Capitalist/Socialist nightmare which is attacking everything we hold dear?

Gordon Brown's government is up to its eyeballs with the "usual suspects," as well as being in the pockets of all the usual vested interests.

A coterie of Zionists and big businessmen are in this "new government" already.

I already touched upon the role of Sir Ronald Cohen (taking over fundraising from Lord Levy!). Now we find out that Gordon Brown has started a business advisory council - to give the government advice on new laws.

This body is crammed full of big businessmen and corporate fat cats, including Sir Alan Sugar as well as head honchos Rose and Leahy from Marks and Spencers and Tescos respectively. All Jewish big businesses thus far... plus there's Damon Buffini who, like Sir Ronald Cohen, is a multi-millionaire because of asset stripping companies (aka chucking workingmen on the dole for profit).

Just what this country needs! More laws passed for the benefit of the mega-rich, mostly kosherised, big businesses!

Meanwhile Brown's deputy is 'Ms.' Harriet Harman (pictured) - like so many other Labour bigwigs, the product of rich parents, private fee-paying schools etc. She also chose to send her children to private schools.

As I've said before, why is it those in charge of state schools, the NHS etc. so often choose not to use them? Because they can buy their way out? It is a system built on hypocrisy!

And our new Foreign Secretary is David Milliband, whose rich Marxist Jewish parents "fled Europe" and owned multi-million property in London...

To add to this "Champagne Kosher Socialism" Miliband's brother Ed is also in the cabinet.

Capitalism and Socialism are two sides of the same coin. Nationalists have said that for many decades now.

The thing is, these days, they don't even try and hide their differences in some kind of cold-war-era charade.

Capitalism and Socialism are now bosom buddies, with police state powers going cap in hand with the rule of the bankers.

It would seem this synthesis of our enemies (most acutely observed in the European Union) is hastening the day when they think they will rule all (brushing aside the wishes of whole populations - like France and the Netherlands - as they rush headlong on their way to their nirvana).

Seems like we'll have more Socialist overlords from our moneyed elites for the foreseeable future passing yet more laws which restrict our freedoms...

The Servile State by Hilaire Belloc

Yesterday & Tomorrow

All too often the empty vessels make the most noise.

We've all "heard" them, especially on the internet. People with no sense of ideology, people more interested in party politics than ideals, people with 5 minutes worth of experience demanding to be listened to, and people who should know better but end up as know-nothings.

Nationalists must be aware of their past. This is more important in a sense than being aware of current events and geo-politics.

Why?

Because without a firm grasp of our history, and the threads that have been woven together to create nationalism, we cannot frame events -- and with no frame in which to place events, or to put it crudely no nationalist filter to block out all the horse crap, then like so many others on the net we'll be making meaningless noise, or worse - play into the hands of our enemies.

Nationalists must understand and study the past, just as we must understand ideology before we try to implement change, if we are to avoid chaos and treachery.

Books like Yesterday & Tomorrow are an excellent starting place, because this book in particular gives a broad sweep of nationalist thought on various matters and from various countries - all coming together to give a pan-European ideal its grounding.

If you are starting out in nationalism, or if you want to know more and educate yourself about nationalism - you can't go far wrong with this book!

Go get Yesterday & Tomorrow - today!

Back to the Land

The FC Online Shop is nothing if not diverse.

We like to think that we provide a wide range of excellent quality items for all nationalists and patriots.

So it is that we offer items such as THE RURAL SOLUTION by Various Authors (TRS).

TRS offers a wide range of essays by various writers on many facets of returning to the land, from ideals and the wider vision, to the nitty gritty and getting your hands on the rural homestead in the wet wilds.

And if a book like TRS grabs your imagination and makes you want to leave the grime and filth of the city for the pastures and dales, we can even offer you your own cow (for Scottish readers - that's a coo).

So pop by the FC Online shop and walk away with a book and a cow.

There's not many places you can do that bar a handful of Devonshire libraries!

Hidden Treasure

There are moments in life when you find a buried treasure. That Robert Louis Stevenson moment. I'm showing my age... kids today would say that Captain Jack Sparrow moment or something equally as Hollywood.

They are usually unexpected, and this makes the moment even more enjoyable, heightening the feeling of a wonderful discovery.

They don't happen very often - and this is just as well otherwise the special feeling of excitement would become as monotonous as waiting for a bus and finally seeing the thing approach (in a quartet) 1o minutes late. A welcome thing, but neither exciting nor exhilarating.

One immediately springs to mind. Around 6 years ago I was browsing a second hand book shop in a highland town called Helmsdale, known primarily for its folk music festival when a myriad of folkies invade to enjoy their music.

I hadn't even planned on going in the shop, but having queued in the local Post Office, I discovered the family had decamped into the kind of shop that sells household china (a brave thing for the Mrs to undertake with the sprogs in tow, but there they were nonetheless).

Taking the coward's route I decided to make haste to the second hand book shop, just a few doors up, and here it was, during my unplanned browse through the books I found a hardback, signed first edition (with dust jacket) of AK Chesterton's (pictured) New Unhappy Lords.

Oh sweet joy. And just to add a singularly juicy cherry to the top of this fruity cake the book was only priced up at one of the Queen's pounds. I duly handed over the single coin to the bearded and no doubt totally unaware shop-keeper (who looked like he'd fallen through a worm-hole in time from 1968) and skipped (not really... but I felt like it with my new acquisition!) back to the family who seemed totally oblivious to the moment - despite my reminding them every five minutes for the next few hours, even as we ate fish and chips down in a particularly pleasant field near the river in Helmsdale.

Anyway, to return to my point, these moments (thankfully) happen all too rarely, thus allowing us to annoy our friends and relatives to the point of distraction when said moments do rear their magnificently bejeweled heads.

But why, you ask, do you bring up this event which happened so many years ago?

And I shall answer you dear reader. Because I recently enjoyed another such gem of a discovery, albeit of a different kind, though still (bizarrely enough) anchored in the world of literature.

One of the things I like doing is reading material which have news on historical, cultural - as well as political - affairs that you wouldn't normally read in nationalist journals (in fact the way some people act you'd be hard pressed to find anything of interest in some of them!)

One of the best resources for this is the Protestant pressure group/charity The Christian Institute. Although (as with most of this kind of thing) I wouldn't agree with them on everything, they publish some excellent material - especially on matters of morality such as drugs, homosexuality, the family etc. Their material on the repeal of Section 28 (the law which stopped the promotion of homosexuality in schools and by local councils) in Scotland especially was amazing: it blew apart all the arguments of the homosexual lobby and the government as they lied their way through the changes.

There are other groups of the same ilk which provide a wealth of information and material, for example the UK Life League.

Anyway, in my travels recently I came across a magazine entitled 'Mass of Ages' which is published by the Latin Mass Society in England and Wales. Most of the mag seemed to be concerning the cultural side of Liturgy (with some interesting items on monastic traditions, Eastern rites and so on). So for 1.95 I bought it, flicked through it a little and put it in the car's glove box for further perusal.

It was a few weeks later when I was waiting for one of the sprogs (I don't have a taxi sign on the car - yet) when I opened the glove box to retrieve one of the FC mags I always leave in there (never missing an opportunity for a passenger to be educated) and the Mass of Ages mag fell out.

Thus it was I found myself reading the mag again as I waited. Mid way through the magazine I found a book review of a title published by TAN Books in America. Bells rang (and I don't have tinnitus) .

TAN published some cracking books on the Inquisition and Isabella of Spain by an author called (if memory serves me right) William Thomas Walsh, both of which were (as I recall) very critical of the role of Jews in Spain in acting against the Christian majority, the Spanish nation, the royal family etc.

So it was I dived into the review. It was of a book called Dressing With Dignity by Colleen Hammond, something close to my heart (though many who saw me in previous years - in the vanity of youth? - with my questionably coloured Bermuda shorts on various nationalist camps would call into question my dignity in these matters).

The book, it seems, is written by an ex-fashion model who had had enough of the lack of morality and normality in the fashion world.

OK, you might say, that's grist for the mill to Christians, nothing startling there.

And you'd be right of course. But here's the hidden treasure which almost had me leap out of the car and run up and down the street accosting passers-by to spread the "good news" like a man who'd read The Talmud Unmasked for the first time!

After talk of women's fashions having descended into the gutter, the review mentions the "corruption of fashions during the French Revolution" and then - the crowning glory:

"[the author] lays the heaviest burden of responsibility on Freemasonry and its "designs against modesty"."

I nearly sat on my bowler hat in all my excitement. It's not so very often you find articles clued up on the French Revolution and the corrupting influence of Freemasonry. OK, the review doesn't mention the influence of adherents to Judaism... but does the book? That would be interesting!

On telling a friend about the book he said "oh yeah, I heard about her, she's doing a lecture tour of the UK" - so it really is a small world.

And so it is that such a small Robert Louis Stevenson moment came and went. It added a jaunt to my step and when the sprog came to the car for his lift home he couldn't grasp why I had a Cheshire Cat smile.

Some might say small things please small minds. Maybe so.

But if such moments raise a smile and provide us with the impetus to get through life's more monotonous moments, where's the harm?

Walking Through History...

This morning, it being what the weathermen call "squally," we decided to for a walk in a forest - where we'd be sheltered from the worst of the elements, but still get some fresh air.

Sometimes Saturdays are just too commercialised... and whilst I do enjoy popping around the shops, grabbing a coffee, browsing the bargain bookshops etc. I've been getting more and more "bored" of town centres as the years go by.

So it was we all decided this morning to get out and enjoy a walk free of the provocative sights and sounds you get, even in the more acceptable market towns (asylum seekers with their top of the range mobiles and brand new tracksuits).

The last time we went for a walk through a forest was quite some months ago, I don't know why we'd left it so long - I suppose work, family events, sports etc. just encroach on weekends more and more. Anyway, we all really enjoyed it.

The sprogs ran off into the undergrowth playing at Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean or whatever the latest snarling, swash-buckling, heroic, arrow-flying, sword-shaking game is.

It left your author (his swash long ago buckled) to ramble on through the little pathways, the Mrs. close by, talking over the latest events of the world, local news and family bits n bobs.

Being close to nature has always appealed to nationalists, and the more I read about our own history, and our own ideological forebears, the more my eyes are opened.

I think being a Distributist (well, at least I like to think I'm one, even though sometimes falling far short of it) helps, the idea that this land belongs to all of us, that we have an inalienable right to own a small part of it, but also that its vast tracts should be open to responsible and careful usage.

Just today tramping through the trees, finding hidden clearings, discovering ancient, moss and ivy-covered gnarled trees - it was like taking a step back in time.

Ah... you say, but you're just indulging in a bit of romanticism.

Well dear reader, perhaps I am, but do you know what: I don't care. Maybe if more of us did that from time to time, this might be a better world. Perhaps being close to the creation of the creator might make us take a little more care of our birthright. Perhaps treading the same paths that our forefathers trod, we might realise that their blood still courses through our veins, and that we have the duty to bring up our children to fully realise their history, their duty.

Two recent books I read have made me realise what we have lost in recent decades and centuries as our land has been grabbed and enclosed, as our people have been forced into factories and down mines, as our religion has been bastardised into a touchy-feely quagmire and our national leaders care more for the rights of money-grubbing international financiers, free-services quaffing immigrants and 'asylum-seekers' and degenerate amoral gyrating homosexuals.

The Protestant Reformation in England and Ireland by William Cobbett (hereafter PREI), and The Guild State by G. R. S. Taylor (hereafter TGS) have made me re-assess the history of our land and of how a once free and fair country has been ensnared and enchained by a small bunch of thieves and political opportunists.

Of course other books have been important too. One thinks here of books like the Neo-Conned volumes which totally exposed the Neo Con nonsense behind the Iraq war, or of The Party System by Hilaire Belloc which brings into sharp focus how Westminster is the problem and not the cure. Another personal favourite of mine is The Flying Inn by G.K. Chesterton which rips to shreads political correctness (decades before anyone had heard of it) in defence of ancient English freedoms.

But to get an overview of history and especially the social history of the land you'd be hard-pressed not to find two better books than Taylor's TGS or Cobbett's PREI (though I have yet to read Cobbett's Rural Rides - another, like PREI before it, which I've scandalously left to gather dust on my shelf whilst other "more important" books took precedent).

But to return to the books, they complement each other because Cobbett (a Protestant remember) paints a clear and vivid picture of pre-Reformation England - and he uses evidence of the time, and of his own time (early 19th Century) to show that England 'back then' was a well-fed land, with widely owned property, with widely held freedoms and with very little crime.

Whilst the roots of Capitalism are to be found before the Reformation (as the Italian Prof. Amintore Fanfani explains in his easily read, but equally studious, Catholicism, Protestantism and Capitalism, originally published in 1934) there is little doubt - especially in Cobbett's mind in regard to England, that the Reformation started the land-grab, the smash and grab (dare I say a touch of 'shocking and awful' plunder to make Donny Rumsfeld blush) of important cultural, architectural and communal structures that would begin the process which ended in the enclosing of the land, the treating our own people not as God's creatures, but as cogs in a machine to be worked (close) to death.

I think what G.R.S. Taylor's (as I understand it, an Anglican) TGS adds to the debate about our social history is that the country enjoyed far more freedom - personal, community, work, national - when the Guilds guaranteed working standards, wages, quality, local "democracy" and so on.

The Common Good (again, the idea that your neighbour was made in the image of God and wasn't just a wallet on legs to be ripped off or used till he collapsed) used to matter as both Taylor and Cobbett attest, and this meant that the people who wanted to rip people off wouldn't get away with it, and that crime was not acceptable and of a much lower level.

There's also the anomaly that we've never had so many taxes, so many layers of "democracy," so many professional politicians or bureaucrats and yet we have never had less of a say in what happens in our local communities!

I suppose this is mirrored in the way that we've never had so much "choice" in regards to the media and news - from 24 Hour TV news channels from a host of companies and countries, to a
wide range of newspapers and magazines - and yet we have never had such an attention-deficit population, such a nation of know-nothings, such an ignorant generation of children (thanks in part to the "gift" of mass coloured immigration) who have no idea who Hitler and Churchill were -- so what hope have we that any of these rootless, Playstation addicts will know anything of the world which Cobbett and Taylor tell us was so cultured, free and secure?

Or I might say that we have never had so many law-enforcement officers as today, with gun-totting policemen driving around our cities, with people living with bars on their windows and chains on their doors for fear of the criminals. Our jails are overflowing, our streets are CCTV'd hither and thither, new laws are passed month on month, year on year... yet we've never been in so much danger of being attacked, being robbed, of having our homes and chattels broken into, ransacked, etc.

We have more taxes, more news-reporting, more policemen than EVER before, yet we have fewer freedoms, more ignorance and more crime than our forefathers. Makes you think doesn't it?

And so it was that your author walked through the forest, imagining days when travelers through that very same spot enjoyed more basic freedoms, lived amongst their own people, told tales of their own forefathers' heroism on cold Winter evenings...

Of course finding a quiet spot, seeing a rabbit dart into some ferns or seeing a split tree isn't something most of us do as we zoom about in our cars day in day out (or, more realistically sit in traffic jams wondering why everything crawls to a stop when there's no stoppage ahead on the road!), as we run to catch a train, or rush to finish some job before a deadline.

But if you take the time, even if your schedule doesn't allow it - do take that walk in the forest.

For one, if you have children they'll enjoy it ten times more than being sat at a red plastic table cramming in McJunk and downing tooth-rotting additive-ridden crap that our forefathers would have more readily used to clean out the gutters...

You'll also find yourself giving time over to think about things, important and unimportant. You might even - if you take the time to read Cobbett and Taylor - find yourself back in time wondering what freedoms our people had before the enclosures, before the advent of Westminster, before Wall Street, before Capitalism, Communism and Zionism...

The same wind blows through the same trees. The same rain falls on the same soil.

Might we one day enjoy the same freedoms and the same values as our forefathers enjoyed?

Perhaps as the backlash grows against Globalism, against McGarbage, against chemical farming, against anti-family legislation, against the stalemate, betrayal or empty promises of party politics, against the thievery and immorality of government, big business etc., against the EU and its reams and reams of rules and regulations... we might indeed, one day enjoy the same freedoms and the same values as our forefathers enjoyed?

We can live in hope...

The End of Electioneering?

If only...

I hope to put more details on this blog as and when they become available, but it seems that the BNP made no new breakthroughs in the local elections.

Some seats were gained, e.g. in Leicestershire, but seats were also lost in Lancashire and Yorkshire.

Whilst on certain forums gains of 100 or even 150 were predicted - it seems that nothing of the sort has happened.

Of course, as with any party, we can expect a spin machine to go into effect explaining how this was really a victory - as Blair and the Labour Party did despite losing 400 seats in England, losing control of the Scottish parliament and failing to win overall control of the Welsh Assembly.

Whilst no patriot can celebrate the lack of wins for anyone standing on an anti-immigration ticket, it could be that this will have a sobering effect on nationalists.

After all, if allowing faggots to stand as candidates (Surrey, Essex, possibly Kent - who knows where else); if kowtowing to heebs in the Jewish Chronicle, if soft-peddling on race to the effect of becoming an anti-Muslim pressure group has not delivered... it could be time to re-assess and re-inject some form of ideology.

As one writer said, it is also time to re-assess the electoral machine and party politics in the shadow of Le Pen's failure. If you can pour money into elections year after year and hit a glass ceiling... then surely other avenues should at least be looked at: and no, I don't mean just more money-making scams.

On Stormfront some were bemoaning electoral fraud and fiddling. Maybe... maybe not.

But welcome to the real world.

Pat Buchanan exposed electoral fraud in America - the home of the pregnant and hanging chad - where a President won an election via solicitors and political peer pressure!

Youth Defence exposed electoral fraud in Dublin, Ireland, where whole blocks of voting cards, still on the stubs, were found at the count for the abortion referendum - in the country that voted against the EU Nice Treaty only to be forced to vote again, so they could be pressurised and blackmailed into voting correctly.

One only has to think of the Birmingham postal voting fraud - substantially if not entirely Asian! - to see how these things can occur in various fiefdoms in England.

Rather than such acts being used to steel the resolve of party activists, it should wake them up to the con that is electioneering.

Of course it doesn't help if some patriot candidates get in after promising the earth and then deliver nothing! Whilst some have been active for their communities and done a lot (I know of some in Yorkshire) there have been some others who have not.

This has resulted in them being voted out, or a collapse in votes in the established areas. of course if you read the book "HOW IT WAS DONE" by Steve Smith (available from the FC Online Shop) you'll also realise how the BNP leadership has robbed local branches - when that money could be used to build up the local cause and sink roots.

Smith gives the impression that the BNP was little more than a money-grubbing machine for the "centre" so much so (bear in mind he delivered the BNP its first batch of councillors) that he quit the BNP.

So what now?

Let us hope for a reawakening of ideology in the nationalist cause.

Let us hope for a reassessment of routes and goals in the nationalist cause.

Let us hope that the councillors left, old and new, will be used to implement radical initiatives.

Otherwise the BNP will continue electioneering, running from pillar to post, gaining here, losing there, and in 20 years time, maybe Griffin will be in Le Pen's shoes... staring at an unbreakable ceiling and wondering who will take over when he deigns to pass on the chalice of leadership...

The Tories won as many, if not more, seats yesterday than the BNP were standing in. To do this the Tories had to soft soap an electorate and the media and become the brunt of BNP scorn. And yet again, people are taken in by the lie and give another bunch of corrupt traitor politicians "one more chance".

Still, the Tories are still not in power yet... but if that is what it takes to achieve electoral power - is it worth it?

Labour had to jettison Socialism. The Tories had to jettison Conservatism. The BNP have tried to jettison Racial Nationalism...

Is this what party politics is all about? Choosing one party which accepts faggot members, which supports Israel, which thinks blacks should integrate - over another? Tweedledee and Tweedledumb politics goes from strength to strength!

The other big story of the night is the Scottish National Party's victory in the Scottish parliament. If the Scots do go for their ticket of independence, it might give nationalism south of the border a kick up the backside... but if that happens just watch the other parties wrap themselves in the St George Cross!

Media & Politicians

I'm reading a newly republished book, The Guild State, by GRS Taylor.

It's a very interesting book and shows why our forebears used the Guilds, and why early in the 20th Century people such as the Distributists in England and the Fascists in Italy sought to re-introduce the Guild system to give the workingman basic rights, to give communities cohesion, and to supply good quality goods at just prices.

For more on Guilds read Arthur Penty's books available in the FC online shop: www.politicalsoldier.net.

GRS Taylor's book will be available in the FC online shop soon!

Anyway, I just started the book and came across a right gem on the media and politicians, which I thought I'd share:

"...the journalists are part owners, part servants in this great governing business; and when they cry the virtues of its wares, it is not very different from what appears in the next column, where a soap manufacturer advertises that his soap is the best in the world."

The Guild State was originally published in 1919. What would GRS Taylor say if he could see The Sun ankrolling government war propaganda today - owned by the media mogul Murdoch whom potential Prime Ministers have to go visit to beg for backing...
