The Sunday Ishmael: 14/09/2025: Entitled, Greedy and Frightened.

Unite the Kingdom

As of Sunday, September 14, 2025, the current population of the United Kingdom is 69,634,746, based on Worldometer's elaboration of the latest United Nations data. The population density is 745 people per square mile.
The total land area is 93,410 square miles. 84.54% of the population is urban  - 58,798,650 people in 2025.
The median age in the United Kingdom is 40.1 years.
Of those 69,634,746 people, only 364,000 people in Britain earn over £100,000 per annum. Only 8,800,000 people earn over £52,000.
 In the financial year ending 2024:
 Median household disposable income in the UK was £36,700.
 Median household disposable income for the poorest fifth of the population decreased by 2.6% to £16,800.
 Median household disposable income for the richest fifth of the population was £71,100.
 In the UK, approximately 1,900,000 workers earn £23,875 or less per year, which is around 6.5% of all UK workers. 

To help you out here, there are 604,707,46 people earning less than £52,000 per year ( 6.5% a lot less), with 9,164,000 people earning more than £52,000 per year (1.5% a lot more).
There are a lot more of us than there are of them. No wonder they are frightened. Those taking such a disparate share of the nation's wages are pretty keen on keeping their share, and, where possible, increasing it. Measures taken to ensure this can be unsubtle - turning out the riot police, 
sending in the horsed police, 
 - but more effective is persuading the overwhelmingly vast majority of the population that this disparity is right and proper, god-ordained and just the way things are - and you do this through church, education, the courts, newspapers and television. In Britain, propaganda is the currency of the establishment, and, as JD Vance pointed out to general embarrassment and denial, the suppression of freedom of speech. 
So that's dealt with Frightened. 
Onto Greedy. The Office for National Statistics in mid 2024, estimated that the average UK household budget is around £2,700 a month (or £32,500 a year) based on an average of 2.3 people per household. 42% is spent on rent/ mortgage, 11% goes on food, 13% on clothing, 7% on utilities, 6% on recreation and culture, 7% on eating out, 3% on clothing, 4% on holidays, 4% on insurance, 5% on Council Tax. Then there's other stuff. Doesn't add up to 100, but that's because the ONS has averaged out spends - for example, some will spend more or less on housing, council tax - in fact, any of the categories.
If the majority of people are able to meet their living expenses on £32,500 per year, then why are 9,164,000 people being paid more than £52,000 per year? 
Well, they would say, they need more. For school fees, to ensure their children get the right accent and meet the right people so they can get their snouts in the trough. To holiday in Tuscany, not some caravan park. To live in the right place, drive the right car, wear the right clothes.
But really -  they are trousering more than £52 grand a year because they can. And they can because of the number they've done on the vast majority of the population.
That's dealt with Greedy. 
Entitled? That comes with the turf in Britain, a direct consequence of and mainstay of, the class system. Thousands of years of stealing a lot and being made a king for it, and punishing those who steal a little by throwing them in jail. (Sweetheart Like You - Bob Dylan).
The establishment sent in 1,500 police in full riot gear to police a protest attended by 150,000 British people on Saturday, the 13th September in London. The protest was attended by old and young, men and women, and, by and large, went off peacefully. It would have been even more peaceful had it not been for police provocation and herding tactics, and the presence of a provocative counter demonstration by 5,000 individuals who were marching under the rubric: Stand up to Racism, under the illusion that they stood alone against an overwhelming tide of flag-flying racism. The peacefulness of the protest can be evidenced by the fact that only 24 individuals were arrested - not bad going for an event of this size.
Of course, the main stream media are depicting it as a horribly violent event, in which our brave bobbies were the only thing standing between civilisation and a dystopian Mad Max universe. 
Assistant Commissioner Twist said the arrests were "just the start,"  as the Met vowed to identify those involved in disorder. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood condemned "those who have attacked and injured police officers. Anyone taking part in criminal activity will face the full force of the law".
Around mid-afternoon, the two demonstrations were divided on Whitehall by lines of police officers. The Met said some officers had been attacked while trying to keep the two groups apart.

Which lefty liberal pillock gave permission for the Stand up to Racism protest? Couldn't they have said do it next Saturday instead? Couldn't they see there might be trouble? Or did the need to send a message that London isn't racist outweigh the most basic risk assessment?
The Labour Government, under its deeply unpopular robotic leader, should draw breath, and start listening to the grievances of Britain's core working class, the majority of the population, a population that Labour were elected to represent, but from which they have become entirely disconnected, seduced by the siren calls of the establishment. Instead, the establishment seems hell bent on treating Tommy Robinson as a reincarnation of Wat Tyler - murdered and his head displayed on London Bridge, Jack Cade - beheaded and quartered, or Bartholomew Steer - tortured to death in prison, all for opposing corruption within the entitled few. It won't end well.
Not a threat - just an observation.
The British people - that mongrel race - have for centuries absorbed peoples fleeing from persecution and poverty - not without a hiccup or two (just thinking about the deaths of 150 Jews in Clifford's Tower in York in 1190, or the murder of 500 Jews in London in 1265), or even those seeking to enrich themselves - the Windrush migrants were not actually called on by the motherland for help. But it does seem that the erosion of their standard of living coupled with post-industrial malaise and contempt for their culture, values and religion by the wealthier and more privileged classes, has led to the working class experiencing  a Damascene revelation of the truth of things. Precipitated, of course, by the invasion of Britain by thousands of men of raping age from mediaeval cultures. 
I heard a woman on Radio Smug the other day, explaining to the interviewer that her education work with what we must now call undocumented asylum seekers, involved her explaining, to her students' great surprise, that, in Britain, rape is a crime. The educator said she gets a great deal of satisfaction from helping these men understand the concept of consent.
Perhaps the Home Secretary might consider a new daily regime for our asylum seekers - whilst waiting for the system to grind slowly towards granting permission to remain in Britain (for few are refused), these undocumented men should spend their days in useful, closely supervised work - gardening, graffiti removal, litter picking, beach cleaning, tidying graveyards, for example, and their evenings in learning English, law, cultural norms, reading, writing and in studying comparative religion. Learning life skills. Keep them too busy to indulge in rape fantasies.

Not much to laugh at this week, I'm afraid, But - there are four splendid anthologies of the writings of stanislav and mr ishmael, compiled by his friend, mr verge, the house filthster. You can buy them from Amazon or Lulu. Here's how:
Honest Not Invent, Vent Stack, Ishmael’s Blues, and the latest, Flush Test (with a nice picture of the late, much lamented, Mr Harris of Lanarkshire taking a piss on a totem pole) are available from Lulu and Amazon. If you buy from Amazon, it would be nice if you could give a review on their website.
IIshmaelites wishing to buy a copy from lulu should follow these steps 
please register an account first, at lulu.com. This is advisable because otherwise paypal seems to think it's ok to charge in dollars, and they then apply their own conversion rate, which might put the price up slightly for a UK buyer. Once the new account is set up, follow one of the links below (to either paperback or hardback) or type "Ishmael’s Blues" into the Lulu Bookstore search box. Click on the “show explicit content” tab, give the age verification box a date of birth such as 1 January 1960, and proceed.

The Telegraph reported 110k protesters, but to my untrained eye the aerial shots looked closer to 1M. Whatever the number, and the statistics you discuss Mrs I, its a sad enditement for a country that once boasted it ruled over most of the world, and was successful in rape, pillage and stealing their stuff. Where did it all go?

But zooming out, its not just Britain but the whole of the West that is in decline: morally, ethically, economically. Failure of the financialised capital system that has delivered such income disparities and living conditions for the privileged few. For many, debt is the new feudalism and slavery.

Don't dare mention socialism, or God forbit Marx or Communism, or you will be cancelled.

How long before the graph of children per couple intersects with that of assisted deaths - because the 2 stats are negatively correlated. How can the young survive and afford kids without getting hold of mum and dad's assets?

Mandleslime, the perfect role model for the Ginger Growler, a product of the Son of Satan Tony B liar, resigns or sacked in disgrace yet gets wealthier every time and keeps coming back. Mandy knows where the bodies a buried hence getting the Ambassador job. Blair’s hoof prints are all over this, with his control over the liebour cabinet, his influence throughout whitehall and his dirt on the pm Kieth Stalin, Ukrainian rent boys, secret children and, the as usual, degeneracy and perversions.

mrs ishmael said...

Hi, mr inmate, I'm not aware of the secret children rumour. My understanding of the Ukrainian rent boys story is that Starmer owned a property which he rented to two young men from Ukraine, and which was subsequently set on fire. Is there anything more to the story than that?

inmate said...

‘twas on tinternet so must be true mrs I. Apparently there is a ‘D’ notice over the three Ukie rent boys, who allegedly set fire to two houses and and a car previously owned by the dear leader. The out of wedlock child is the reason Victoria Sponger is rarely seen by keef’s side and the reason he spent months living in his bumchum Lord Ali’s flat, so’s his son would have peace n quiet preparing for his exams, hmmm.

mrs ishmael said...

Wow - thank you, mr inmate - good gossip. D notices are supposed to be used only to prevent matters of national security being aired in the press - so, if it is true that there's a D notice - what the fuck???

mrs narcolept said...

It will come as no surprise to ishmaelians that my dear mr narcolept, plus a selection of old chums, attended the rally. Not much marching got done by them because they found a pub that served proper ales and decided that staying there for a pint or six was the British thing to do.
From what they saw, it seemed to be a genuinely friendly crowd, much the sort of people who throng the Mall for royal events, lots of families and a fair sprinkling of non-Anglo-Saxon, Norse or Celtic types. As always, there will have been a few who were hoping for a fight, but they certainly weren’t the vast majority. Not a lot of anti-immigrant (legal) feeling, just pure fury that for the past twenty years every single government of no matter what political bent has failed to act in the best interests of the people already in this country, which was their only job.
I don’t get involved because I find the arguments nerve-jangling and hopeless. Getting the hell outta Dodge is my priority now, though I am having a struggle trying to get mdmn to view this as anything other than a shameful retreat.

It is rumoured that there has been a certain recklessness of a Ugandan nature, mrs i, and that kompromat is in the possession of foreign security organisations. Some of the gentleman's decisions seem inexplicable except when viewed in this light.

verge said...

Ugandan Kompromat = "madman partook gun", mr mongoose. Time will tell.

inmate said...

“what the fuck ???” Well it is of national importance, can’t have the plebeians worrying that their great leader, kier Stalin, is nothing but a degenerate, cocksucking, grifting, lying pervert. Can we?
