Today is the centenary of the first performance of 'It's A Long Way To Tipperary'



Written and performed in Stalybridge by Jack Judge this day 100 years ago. Well done to the people who organised today’s events in Stalybridge commemorating the centenary of this iconic song - it was brilliant and a very fitting way of remembering.

Jack Judge’s masterpiece is certainly my favourite song of the Great War and for me it really sums up the innocence of the age.

It is amazing how many people know the lyrics to this song. I remember touring the Norwegian fiords on the Oriana ship a few years ago and during a quiz, I think it was North v South the two competing teams were asked to sing their favourite wartime song. One team chose Roll Out the Barrel and the team I was on chose It’s a Long Way to Tipperary. We won hands down as everyone on our team knew the lyrics, even ‘err indoors’ which totally amazed me. There is also the version sung by the submariners in a fantastic war film Das Boot which is very good when put in context with the rest of the film.

If Britain's 2.55 million casualties in the Great War could come back now they would wonder why they bothered.

SerpentSlayer said...

Millions bloodied and several empires destroyed. A beautiful golden age of European civilisation brought crashing down by Slavic squabbling.

The entente did not win the war, internationalism won the war. We were only saved by a German national revival and the superhuman efforts of mainly German but also many other European people pushing themselves to the absolute limits of their ability to hold back a frenzied tide of murderous anti-human communism.

We must mourn the loss of our civilisation's innocence but we must also await the logical end of the turbulent hundred years that have preceeded today. More war and bloodshed will follow soon and we will reach the end of the current cycle of history.

According to The Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life there were 2,869,000 Muslims in Britain in 2010 - an increase of 74 per cent on its previous figure just nine years earlier of 1,647,000 in the 2001 census. Put into perspective, a 74% increase every nine years projects as follows....

2010 - 2.9 M
2019 - 5 M
2028 - 8.8 M
2037 - 15.3 M
2046 - 26.6 M
2055 - 46.25 M
2064 - 80 M

Now we don't want the left levelling accusations at us of being 'alarmist' or engaging in 'scaremongering' (or the usual patronising line of "playing on people's fears" LOL).

In that case we'll take account of the fact that our initial increase figure for 2001-2010 could (but may not!) be a slight overestimate. We should also consider that in future decades the muslim birth rate may drop and there'll be tighter curbs on immigration (which also may not happen!).

So we'll be conservative with our figures and propose that the projected increase is just half the rate suggested. Well even that would mean there'll be 40 million muslims that our children and grandchildren will be sharing our tiny island with in 50 years courtesy of the John Taylors and Jackie Lanes of this world.

Anyone think those grandchildren will be outside Stalybridge library singing Tipperary - or does something with a more middle eastern flavour spring to mind....

Strength through Diversity said...

As an open minded person I welcome this news. People of faith must embrace diversity and make these new Britons welcome. We all believe in the universal sanctity of life and we share respect for different religions. My husband was a leading figure in setting up the NW Inter Faith Network following the Ritchie Report. Muslims are a devout and tolerant group and I can see no problem with them one day becoming the dominant faith group in the UK.

Crucifying Europe said...

"I can see no problem with them one day becoming the dominant faith group in the UK."


Well there's not much to be said for woolly-minded imbeciles who "can see no problem " with that. Unfortunately there will be little justice in the fact that the generations responsible for the terrible legacy being left will not be the ones to pay the ultimate price. They enjoyed the novel culinary delights provided by multiculturalism, and will leave it to future generations to suffer the real consequences.

That being an ever-burgeoning muslim population with an ever-increasing amount of power and influence over a country in which they have no deep roots and no historical or cultural ties or affinities. The only good thing is that the white liberal-left and their christian allies may be the first ones to find themselves subjegated by islamic jack boot over the throat. What justice there....

Strength through Diversity said...

Quit the scare mongering. We have been to many interfaith events over the years and Muslims, Jews, Christian, Buddhists and Sikhs have all got on well and pledged their futures to Britain. As soon as the Queen is replaced and the monarchs role is altered to Defender of the Faiths these new arrivals will at least feel 100% pure British. It matters not what church they attend or where their ancestral roots may lie because as British people they will put Britain first. Skin colour or religion means little when it comes to this nations future. We have always been a mongrel a nation comprised over different races as diverse as the Romans to the Saxons and Jutes and it is this which made us strong. In the future we may all be coffee coloured and mosques may replaces churches but we will all be British and the more of us there are the stronger we will be as a nation.

Strength through Diversity said...

Islamic enlightenment in the form of art and high culture rescued Europe from the dark ages ten centuries ago. We have nothing to fear from Islam. During these economically challenging times we should be thankful to the Muslims who are providing us with a young a dynamic generation of new British people to replace our moribund and rapidly ageing population of lazy and childless baby boomers. Thank your blessings and stop being so negative and backward looking.

Anonymous said...

So there you have it people. The left would wholeheartedly welcome Tipperary replaced with the islamic call to prayer. A combination of trite PC mantras and self-hating pseudo-history are all you need to make the case. To the people of Britain - don't say you weren't warned what these people really stand for.

John Ward said...

Strength Through Diversity, they'll be the ONLY faith group the way they're outbreeding all the others. According to the last government's own figures, between 2004 - 2008 the Islamic population of Britain increased ten times faster than the next most fertile group. So that's about fifteen times faster than the indigenous population.
If the country is overrun by this domineering, violent foreign creed that treats women like property, and substitutes archaic, infantile dogma for wisdom and the striving for scientific progress, it will no longer BE Britain.
To compare a few, very similar in outlook and culture, Jutes and Danes from our ancient past with the unwanted modern tsunami of this utterly alien and hostile creed is laughable, treacherous and dishonest.
There was no Islamic enlightenment, some of their more intelligent elders and scholars simply preserved some of the ancient wisdom of particualrly the Greek and Roman worlds.
Islam is a backward looking faith that seeks only blind ignorance and domination. Its global intransigence, insularity and unwillingness to compromise or integrate in any meaningful way are amongst its most fundamental chacteristics.
Apart from China's contribution virtually all scientific advancement came from the western world from ancient times and the Renaissance onwards. Virtually all Islam has and has ever had to offer is brainwashed, fascistic, alien dogma and violence towards apostates and dissenters.
All the trouble currently going on in Islamic countries is caused by their grossly disproportionate fertility rates and in North Africa and the Middle East there are legions of young, unemployed people, in particular young men, with no job and no prospect of one and with a lot of time on their hands the result is inevitable and manifest, from Syria to Egypt.
None of these countries want the democracy that moronic western liberals deluded themselves into believing would happen, they want the removal of the existing regimes. A few want modern governance but the vast majority, and all those with REAL power and influence want Islamic theocracies, and that is exactly what they are getting.
As for a 'dymnamic generation of new British people, they aren't British apart from their passports and when it suits them, and as every incomer from the Indian subcontinent brings in twenty two dependents, many of whom will be elderly our infrastructure will be placed under a massive extra burden as a result.
You manifestly hate your own kind and abuse them with lying, racist terms like moribund and lazy because it suits your own treachery, cowardice and fundamentally flawed Marxist phiosophy. The only aim of which is to preside over the ruins of what was once civilisation.

Andrew Berwick said...

Even if we are ultra-conservative in our estimates and project increases at a mere quarter of that suggested - that is still 20 million in 50 years. Consider the current islamic presence and influence we feel in Britain today with just 3 million muslims, and multiply that 6 or 7 times over. It doesn't even bear thinking about.

Personally I think western societies will fracture and fail before the numbers grow big enough for a complete take over. No people in history have ever passively allowed themselves to be completely swallowed up by an alien new comer.

A great proportion of the white masses will be assimilated into an islamised mongrel population. But racial awareness may rise within some white communities as the tide rises, and some enclaves may form with white seperatist militias resorting to an IRA stlye campaign to defend their portion of a balkanised Britain.

You don't turn up at a meeting like that wanting to start fights with candidates.

So that means you are the spy and not him. Filming people without their knowledge at political meeting is what spies do. The cheque is in the post but you wont have much to spend it on in Strangeways.

You want to watch your mouth Tameside UAF. Roy West is not necessarily representative of many in the far right, and by trying to intimidate your enemy with threats of violence in prison you may just tip someone over the edge who brandishes more than a mobile phone at his leftist rivals. Your may hate your enemies, but you need to realise the feeling is mutual....

Best of luck Roy. I'm usually a breathing corpse at that time in the morning, having not been to sleep yet, so I may not be able to attend.

If I can't make it then rest assured that I am with you in spirit. You are a brave man who works indefatigably for the cause of our people and you are being persecuted for that very reason.

Everbody knows that the beef between you and Taylor is reciprocal. The difference is that JT uses his office to try and get one over you.

They cannot beat you if you do not believe it can be, you are in the right Roy. Use all the evidence you can, do not hold back. He can be beaten easily so long as you never admit defeat.

Andrew Berwick said...

I think Roy would be in safe hands on the inside anyway. Most prison warders are white and well experienced in having to deal with the disproportionate number of black males doing time. You're not likely to find many a lefty-liberal screw who takes exception to the presence of a white patriot sent down for taking on a local red....

I hope RW and his Solicitor have swotted up on the Human Rights Articles in depth because that`s where he could destroy the credibility of JT.

"terrifying demographic problems" said...

Another establishment newspaper sounds the alarm bells once again with the headline "our terrifying and intractable demographic problems". Now the impending prospect of 70 million is being bandied about as some worrying high-water mark for the country's demographic status.

"Even without a single new immigrant, the population is set to rise by an extra three million to more than 65 million by 2025. Our population is now growing at the fastest rate since the 19th century. If net migration continues at current levels, we will reach 70 million people by 2027.

It is a truly mind-boggling thought. Our existing infrastructure and services are already groaning at current levels of just over 62 million people. Where on earth are these extra eight million people going to live? In four brand new conurbations, yet to be constructed? Each of them will need to be twice the size of Birmingham.

We already have a full-blown housing crisis, with young families priced out of the still grossly inflated market and hundreds of unscrupulous landlords exploiting the huge anomalies between the supply and demand of reasonable accommodation.

What on earth are all of these extra citizens going to do to earn a living? We already have 2.7 million people out of work, among them more than a million mainly depressed and despondent young people, desperate for any opportunity to get on......

Given the scale and the urgency of the population problems I have tried to outline above, these latest proposals to tackle immigration seem both absurdly overdue and more than a tad mealy-mouthed and half-hearted. Sadly, they also seem set to prove ludicrously inadequate."


And sadly, the article's author does not herself offer any proposal that would prove any more adequate.

Neither does the article mention that nationwide no less than a quarter (181,827) of births were to foreign born mothers. Neither does the article mention that the problem does not simply relate to population growth - but the type of population growth. If the Britain of the future is made up almost entirely of a non-white mongrel or muslim population, should any of us really care what state the country is in????

terrifying demographic depicts the truth.
The only possible conclusion is the UK is now a crap Country which cannot be remedied in any shape or form.
Tameside takes some beating as you travel the UK as one of the worst locations to observe the masses of absolute shit public,who because of their bringing up,refusal to study hard,offer respect to adults,
whilst their parents milk the system administrated by a bunch of
the dross who originated from the previous dross.
One of the main causes of a rotten TMBC goes back to the 25 years of Roy Oldham an absolute ignorant despot dictator who without doubt chose every Labour candidate himself thereby creating a deliberately bunch of sycophantic
underlings who could be totally controlled through fear and perpetual nepotism.
25 years plus of that regime still
persists and will take a huge uprising of the already brain dead
electorate to eradicate a not fit for purpose Council.
Not sure if the rumor I heard this week is correct, that of discussions taking place for the Advertiser Editor to become a Labour Candidate at the earliest opportunity.
Has anyone else heard of such discussions taking place ?

SerpentSlayer said...

Repeat the mantra far and wide. This is a powerful tool to educate our people.

I feel the 'end' is near, 'Ragnarok' as our tall blond ancestors would call it. Civilisation is coming to an end.
Train, educate yourself, find comrades, buy tools of self preservation.
We will be the army of 'osdin' as romanticised in the edda, the opposing forces will be the alien, the ignorant and the plain evil.

The fight may be political, economic, military, events have a fluidity to them which makes it hard to read.

Be the best and most useful Aryan you can be and await the end times with confidence. Our civilisation will ennd and the survivors will emerge on the other side of it, free to start a clean slate.

Until then, spread the word, they wish to see us dead for the very reason that we cannot be controlled comfortably enough. Read my blog if you are unsure, I've put up a half decent article there.

Remember:

ANTI-RACIST IS A CODE WORD FOR ANTI-WHITE!

In the streets of our inner cities you can witness the massive expansion in all colours and creeds of subhuman dross.
Our own Borough is increasingly peopled with these subnormal, shuffling, monosyllabic, often drug-destroyed cretins.
Strong, mandatory punishments and deterrents are what's needed if this expanding and worsening degeneration is to be stopped. A simulataneous purge should be enacted, starting with the withholding of all their financial incentives to breed.

Maybe, but compared to many other regions of greater manchester it aint that bad. Try a stint in Gorton, Moston, Salford etc and you'll see what I mean. If it wasn't for Tameside I'd be out of gtr.mcr. altogether. Oldham isn't much better with its muslim contingent. Check any map and the only predominantly white alternatives nearby that haven't sunk too far into the mire are the Glossop and Stockport areas (where property prices are far higher!).
