04/09/23 Update. I've just had a good chat with Ash and he is still in Nottingham awaiting relocation to another prison, which is waiting to be confirmed. How long that will be is anyone's guess. He has just received one letter that I had posted to Liverpool before I knew of his move prior to sentencing, so at least that has been forwarded. He's not received the email I've sent yet and thinks at Nottingham they print and deliver the letters instead of reading them at a computer. He is in remarkable good spirits and determined to appeal and to continue fighting. Any other updates and I'll let you know. A big thanks to all that have communicated with him, he truly appreciates it.

Ever one to think aloud, I state here a compelling strategic reason to publish an online newspaper with original material such as video and reports (and indeed to pay the authors). Copyright. Such items will inevitably be forwarded/retweeted/linked to. We shall watermark any video, and to request attribution in a legally sticky way (like the GPL), thus propagating its brand.

I just had a long telephone conversation with Tyrone.

I filled him in on publicly known news about the others while only referring to them by clues rather than names.

Right now he has enough books, but longer term he would like to receive history books about late 19th to early/mid 20th century European history.

I told him that his letters will be published here if he requests it and I encourage him to do so.

He is thirsty despite drinking the water. He gets free tea bags but would like to get orange squash but it ran out and is too expensive. I said I would ask what people here might be able to suggest. Some prisoners there (HMP Elmley) complain of stomach cramps from the water.

@RevJamesCostello Tyrone wants to know: did you get the e-mail he sent three weeks ago?

Tyrone's sentencing is on 26 September. I will visit him after that.

He said that I and his immediate family are the only ones who have sent money. Please have a look in the text file and send him a donation if you can.

The amount that he is allowed to spend each week is quite limited and could be increased to "advanced" if he was working. I suggested that education/training courses, including becoming involved in prison radio/video might be counted as work.

His medications are being supplied and he seemed in good spirits (as good as can be expected).

Our prisoners are unrepentant. They might consider that they could have had better tactics, or not, but they have never recanted as far as I'm aware.

That's a good place to be, to be able to say that you have done nothing wrong, that you can stand up straight, that you don't need to apologize, and indeed, you owe your detractors and oppressors absolutely nothing whether as an individual or as a member of a people.

More than ANYTHING, that ENRAGES our enemies.

They can put your body in a cage or kill it but they cannot touch your soul. Hold that thought.

However, I do believe that having friends around you does make it easier.

What are some good (monthly or so) magazines to get subscriptions to for prisoners? We know about Heritage & Destiny, and Culture Wars. What others? Preferably local because international shipping cost is horrendous.

Hint: supporting our prisoners is real world.

Can you all stop being weaklings on the internet and get involved in something IRL, so we can conquer our enemies and change the world forever.

My goodness this is good. I highly recommend everyone give it a listen. Warren describes the problem and then nails the solution. He articulates a number of thoughts that have crossed my mind from time to time.

^^^ The common good before the individual good.

Gemeinnutz geht vor Eigennutz.

Warren actually says the racial struggle before "working on yourself" but it's the same concept.

Some might object that we don't have state power yet, so how does anyone benefit right now from such an insight? Well, your mind "forward loads" what you foresee and your attitude and state of mind shifts as though it were a present reality.

I've mentioned my monthly grid for tracking prisoner support. Here is the current version ready to print. Feel free to modify as you wish for your own preferences. And yes, I've cleaned it of metadata and previous versions - but if I missed anything then do let me know.

Here is what it looks like so far this month.

Hmm, I see that I left out my recent phone call with Tyrone - now corrected.

Judges should be elected, or appointed for a fixed tenure. An unaccountable class of such people with life-and-death authority simply leads to kritarchy - rule by judges - and the usual culprits always seem to work their way into controlling such a system.

I would like to revisit the question of finding the contact details - name of the prison, the prisoner number, and the date of birth - of the prisoners in the appendix of the text file, or any others that fit our prisoner profile as described in the pinned post.

The text file can be found here: https://t.me/c/1875951978/414

The recent official review of Prevent said that there are 65 "terrorism" prisoners in the UK, the vast majority of whom are white-nationalists broadly described. If we were to add one per month to our list of supported prisoners, it would take five years to achieve our goal of supporting that entire class of people. That's not good enough, and clearly we are not achieving that rate: In the six months of this project's existence we have acquired five prisoners, but none for the last couple of months.

Let's consider how we found our five:

Two came from an immediate family member and the other three from close friends; all contacts had already been communicating with their prisoner by the time they contacted us. We have had no success at all in contacting prisoners via publicly accessible information sources. That seems to be the pattern we can expect: organic, insider networking via our growing number of subscribers.

It is likely that two of our prisoners will be released by the end of this year: Vincent and Kris (which will be a cause for celebration), leaving just three to support. We need more prisoners in order to progress the project towards its eminently attainable goal of supporting the entire class of UK political prisoners, practically all of whom happen to also be our people.

We now have over one hundred subscribers and I feel certain that they include people who are, or know someone who is, already corresponding with our type of political prisoner. Can you put us in contact with them?

Here is the list of prisoners for whom we need contact details. I left out Christopher Gibbons because I was advised to leave him be for now. Look down the list and see if there are any that you recognize - perhaps someone that has his own supporter group that you could bring to our attention.

The thing is, it is not scalable.

I mention scalability from time to time as a necessary feature of SIAS and long-term viability.

I can do this with five prisoners, but it would become physically and financially impossible with ten or more. So, within perhaps a year we need a team that divides up the prisoners amongst the members of the team.

How to handle the potential complications that will arise is something I have hardly begun to work out.

Obviously, financial scalability can be done with a crowd-funding campaign. The physical scalability requires people.

By the way, I do this because i have not solved the "lack of information" issue: Since i don't know who is sending to which prisoners then as coordinator I have to cover them all in order to make sure none are left out. I avoid asking about who is doing what for privacy and security's sake. It is woefully inefficient and there is probably a better way.

Conservatism is a dead end. The past is gone, never to return, and whatever will save us will necessarily be revolutionary in character.

Political conservatism is a straight up scam, with its bait and switch and "drawing a line in the sand" that is the leftism of twenty years ago.

"Small c" conservatism is always in retreat: either white flight or an internal retreat into nostalgia and resentment.

No such groups or individuals are equipped to deal with what is right here right now.

Whoever sent James a book by Kipling: It was delivered. Thank you!

Also, a book that I sent him, Chess Behind Bars, was delivered.

The release of those two books came six days after I sent my "stern letter" to the governor of his prison, requesting release of all the books I had sent. I don't think that's a coincidence. The letter was essentially the same as the one I sent to Tyrone's prison governor that got his books delivered eight days later.

I shall put that letter up shortly as a template. If the release of books about a week later occurred once them it might be a coincidence, but twice in a row means it probably what did the trick.
