SPRINGBOK CYBER NEWSLETTER

October 2022 edition

We have known of no other issue which has divided patriotic opinion so radically and so fundamentally throughout the UK and the British Commonwealth than the current military conflict in the Ukraine. We have supporters who take a firm pro-Ukrainian line, whereas others are equally strident in their pro-Moscow stance. We respect both sets of sincerely held views.

Our own standpoint is far more nuanced however. Being staunch Unionists in the UK context, and also supporting the unity of the other great European nations, we naturally find ourselves sympathetic towards the aspirations of the Russian people for the re-unification of “All the Russias”, as was the case during Tsarist years. Having said this, however, we can not support the violent strong-arm methods currently being employed by the Moscow government to achieve this aspiration! Far, far better we believe for them to have embarked upon a “charm offensive” in order to encourage the Ukrainian people to elect a government similar to that of Viktor Yanukovych which existed in the Ukraine prior to 2014, which adopted friendly relations with Moscow in a similar manner to the relationship of Belarus. It is not just a case that military force against civilians is morally wrong, but also that it has so antagonised the Ukrainian people that it has become totally counter-productive towards their basic aim!

The position of the current British Government regarding the conflict in the Ukraine is particularly disappointing. Surely post-Brexit Russia is Britain’s most natural ally on the European continent? Surely therefore it has been a great mistake by the successive Johnson and Truss governments to pursue such a fiercely anti-Russian policy, when a sympathetic stance – or even a firmly neutral stance – would have enabled Britain to act as an “honest broker” and thereby to assist in bringing the fighting to a halt. As it is Britain simply seems to be acting as a lackey of both the EU and the Biden Administration in the United States, neither of which are particular friends of Britain!

At the moment all that we see in the Ukraine is White men and women killing White men and women, whilst the non-White world – particularly expansionist Islam and the threatening Chinese - look on and laugh. Furthermore, the anti-Russian fanaticism of both the EU and the Biden Administration has only pushed Russia firmly into the Chinese orbit. The only conceivable peace proposal which seems to have emerged has come from Elon Musk, the South African-born internationally renowned entrepreneur and visionary. Although his Peace Plan undoubtedly needs to be “tweaked” slightly, we can only congratulate Elon Musk greatly on his efforts in this regard, and to wish him every success.

SPRINGBOK CLUB NEWS

The Springbok Club again fulfilled their promise to Peter Sladden by maintaining the traditional ”Raising of the Flag” ceremony last month. This ceremony was held annually at Cecil Square, Salisbury, Rhodesia from 1891 until 1979, and at Peter Sladden’s estate at Southrepps in Norfolk from 1981 until 2017. This year the ceremony was held at Swanage in Dorset, which had been the home to Cmd.E.C.”Teddy” Tyndale-Biscoe (who of course first raised the Union Flag at the site which became Salisbury, Rhodesia, on 13th September 1890) from 1936 until his death in 1941. The ceremony was actually held outside the house where he lived in Bon Accord Road, Swanage, with Sgt. Graham Gillmore (ex-RLI) acting as parade commander. After the Union Flag and the Rhodesian Flag were raised by Mr. Alan Williamon and Mrs.Susan Gordon key-note speeches were given by Mr. Stuart Agnew (former UKIP MEP for the East of England) and Mr. Gavin Sandeman (of the Sandeman Port importing family), which was followed by rousing renditions of both the British and Rhodesian National Anthems led by Mr.Alex Knox-Wylie. Toasts were then raised to the memories of Cmd.E.C.”Teddy” Tyndale-Biscoe and Mr.Peter Sladden and to The King with Sandeman Port (both Cmd.E.C.”Teddy” Tyndale-Biscoe’s mother and his first wife were members of the Sandeman Port importing family), before participants adjourned to The Black Swan (which is believed to have been Cmd.E.C.”Teddy” Tyndale-Biscoe’s “local”) where Mr.Gary Vincent gave a captivating PowerPoint presentation about his life and career, before everyone present enjoyed a sumptuous evening meal.

----------------------------

The Springbok Club will be holding a special buffet-meeting to celebrate the anniversary of UDI next month, the details of which are as follows :-

Date : Saturday 26th November 2022

Time : assemble from 12.00 noon onwards, meeting to commence at 13.00 hrs.

Venue: THE ANTELOPE (the upstairs dining room), 22 Eaton Terrace, Belgravia, London SW1W 8EZ. (nearest tube station: Sloane Square - turn right out of the main entrance, then right again into the north side of Sloane Square which becomes Cliveden Place, then finally left into Eaton Terrace where The Antelope is on the left).

Guest Speaker : Mr. Bryn Price

Bryn Price served as a District Officer in the Rhodesian Department of Internal Affairs, before moving to the UK where he has been active with a number of expatriate Rhodesian organisations. He is also a accomplished long-distance Canoeist, having represented England at senior level.

----------------------------

The Springbok Club is planning a special event to mark the Day of the Vow in central London during December, and will be holding its 2023 AGM in January of next year, after which a fascinating PowerPoint presentation will be shown. Further details of both these events will be given in future editions of the SCN.

PATRIOTIC FORUM NEWS

Details of the Patriotic Forum’s October meeting are as follows :-

Date : Monday 24th October 2022

Time : 18.30 hrs for 19.00 hrs.

Venue : The SUTTON ARMS (the upstairs function room), 6 Carthusian Street, Barbican, London EC1M 6EB. (Nearest tube station: Barbican. Turn left out of the station, and Carthusian Street is then the first turning on the left, with the Sutton Arms diagonally opposite.)

Guest Speaker : Mr. Peter Lindsay - who will be speaking on the theme of “The World Crisis”

Peter Lindsay was born in London in 1950 to “Labour” parents who had become more and more disillusioned with the Labour Party’s leftward drift, and eventually became strong Thatcherites. They were always strong patriots, as he has always been. He grew up on a council estate in Essex and was fortunate to benefit from the tripartite education system of the post-WW2 years and went to a Grammar School. He qualified as a chartered accountant in 1974, and later became a tax specialist. He has always lived in the South-East.

Peter Lindsay has always been interested in politics and history, and this led him to become inquisitive and concerned about the grotesque direction the UK took in the post-WW2 years. He became a member and activist of UKIP shortly after it was formed, and ran a branch in Surrey where he currently lives. He was “over the moon” when the result of the 2016 Referendum made all the years of effort worthwhile, but he regards getting out of the EU as only “Job No.1” in the long task of British renewal after decades of betrayal and decline. He currently runs a highly acclaimed e-mail circulation service as part of his campaign to assist with Britain’s renewal, and to alert people to what he believes has been the biggest single evil ever to infect the world, Marxism,

----------------------------

The Patriotic Forum’s 2022 AGM, at which a re-constituted Committee will be elected, will take place during the evening of Wednesday 9th November in central London. Precise details about this event will be circulated to all Patriotic Forum members and supporters very shortly.

MESSAGE FROM THE ANIMAL SURVIVAL INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATION

We have recently received the following very important report from the Animal Survival International organisation about the situation concerning giraffes in the “new” South Africa. It reads as follows:-

“On a small piece of land in South Africa’s Eastern Cape, three adult giraffes (one who lost her calf) live in a totally unsuitable and unsustainable desperate situation. They are riddled with ticks and facing the prospect of starving to death.

“The giraffes need to be moved to a more suitable area - and FAST!

“The trio have devoured most of the vegetation, and because of a prolonged drought re-growth is critically slow, making their living conditions increasingly dire. Another problem is that blood-sucking ticks have plagued the land, leeching the life from these already-weakened giraffes and causing wounds and disease. Already two newborn giraffes have died because of these conditions. The second was just one day old when he breathed his last. His mother is still so traumatized that she constantly returns to the site of his death.

“Usually in situations like this, people simply shoot the giraffes because it is a cheap ‘solution’ to the problem, but we must not let this happen. We need your help to move them to safety.

“There is no other option - we must move them fast, or the giraffes will most certainly die either from starvation or tick-borne disease.

“No one knows how the animals came to be in such an unsuitable place, but it is suspected that criminality was involved. The land was bought by a good-hearted young couple who has been giving the giraffes supplementary food, but the reality is that these towering creatures do not belong there. After exhausting all options, they reached out to us for help. As animal lovers, we acted immediately and found a solution. Giraffes are the world’s tallest land mammals and can grow to 17 feet so a tower of giraffes needs a lot of space to be comfortable and with your help, we will relocate the giraffes to a bigger area.

“The nearby Royalston Wildlife Reserve is perfect for giraffes and they will thrive there. So that’s where we plan to move them. The relocation is a tricky operation requiring expert skills to reduce stress on the giraffes and must be carefully planned. It will not be easy, but with your help we can do it.

“We have successfully relocated giraffes before - in 2021, with your help, we relocated three giraffes in Plettenberg Bay, South Africa, who faced slaughter because their home was going to be used for commercial farming.

“If we can raise US$15,000 (£12,200), we will construct an enclosure, entice the giraffes into it with food, humanely capture them, and transport them to their new home. This thousand-hectare, free-roaming sanctuary is just 5 miles from where the giraffes are now. There, they will receive immediate medical care, will have better access to food and, above all, more land to roam freely.

“With your support, the three giraffes will live and thrive among their own in open grasslands stretching over rolling hills.

“Our worry for the individual animals is a prime concern, but saving these giraffes is even more critical. Giraffe numbers have dropped by 40% in the last 30 years and are becoming increasingly threatened. There are now only some 117,000 giraffes in the wild.

“The surviving herds are fragmented and face many threats, from poaching to habitat loss, the latter of which is one of the gravest threats to their continued existence. Giraffes used to range through much of the African savanna, but they now live in a handful of communities scattered in clumps across the continent. In some countries, like Mali, giraffes have disappeared completely.

“What we have here is a tragedy, but we cannot turn a blind eye when giraffe calves drop dead before they have even had a chance to live. There is a solution and with your help, we will be able to give these giraffes a chance at a long, happy and safe life.

“The giraffes are only 10 MINUTES away from a potential haven that can meet all three of their most urgent needs - food, space and medical treatment. Will you help us make this happen and allow them to roam free and live as giraffes are intended to live? Please, donate as generously as you possibly can today so that we can put our emergency giraffe relocation project into action.“

CALL FOR MIXED CRICKET MATCHES

Over recent years sexually mixed relays have been introduced at the highest levels in Athletics, Swimming and Cycling tournaments. Lawn Tennis has of course for long included mixed doubles competitions, and Korfball has always been mixed by its very rules. Team sports seem to have been immune from this most welcome evolution however. When it comes to contact sports such as the various codes of Football this is probably understandable – but why not in Cricket?

Women’s Cricket has been around ever since the days of W.G.Grace’s mother of course, but it has only been in recent years that this branch of the game has enjoyed widespread popularity, so that many now consider it as exciting and as technically excellent as the men’s game – if not more so! Unfortunately this enthusiasm for the game has been accompanied by another most unpleasant development, namely the rise of the scourge of lesbianism within some of the top national teams. Leading players from England, Australia, New Zealand and the “new” South Africa have openly announced that they have entered into unnatural relationships with other female players, in some cases even going through a parody of a “marriage” ceremony. Unsurprisingly this has engendered great unease and indeed disgust among the game’s mainstream supporters, though it has been pleasing to note that one particular player has apparently rejected this unnatural lifestyle and is citing “mental health problems” for her disappearance from the game.

If a series of cricket competitions involving both sexes – with say a minimum of five players of each sex per team – could be introduced as in the other sports cited above, then not only would it spark great extra interest among supporters, but by bringing female players into closer contact with their male colleagues would make the machinations of predatory lesbians vastly more difficult!

LATEST FALKLANDS NEWS

We have recently received the following encouraging message from the Falklands Island Association. It reads as follows :-

“You may remember I wrote in November 2021 on behalf of the British Modern Military History Society, who were compiling a new volume of their 'Glimpses of War' series, specifically about the Falklands War, and wanted to hear from members who had a story to tell. The response from you all was amazing and I am pleased to say that many of our members' stories made it into the book.

“The book is now on sale from Amazon and all profits will be donated to Blind Veterans UK, More details can be found at: https://www.bmmhs.org/glimpses-of-war/

“Thank you to all of our members who responded, and I hope you find your stories in the book.”

------------------------------------------------------------------

LITTLE REPORTED NEWS ITEM FROM THE TURKS AND CAICOS ISLANDS

In a little reported development concerning the British Overseas Territory of The Turks and Caicos Islands, where there have evidently been 15 fatal gang-warfare shootings since the start of September, the UK Government has announced that it is sending a specialised Police unit to the colony in order to help restore law and order.

Such a move is of course to be welcomed, but it does demonstrate how the British Government has been neglecting its colonial responsibilities to the islands. Surely resources from Britain’s “Overseas Aid Budget” should be restricted to helping Britain’s remaining Overseas Territories, rather than handed out to third world potentates and tyrants who hold no love for Britain. Not only would such investment help eliminate all the gang warfare and lawlessness in this neglected colony, but it could also be used to build up infrastructure on the islands so that they could become a paradise for British holidaymakers.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW ?

No.287: Mr. NORMAN LANCASHIRE.of Durban

Norman Lancashire was an early subscriber to South African Patriot and also attended a few Patriotic Forum meetings when the original organisation of that name was based in Durban during the 1980s. It is believed that he lived in the Berea area of the city, but very little else is known about him, apart from the fact that he was very proud of his British ancestry. Unfortunately his copy of the latest issue of The Imperial Patriot has been returned to us as he evidently is no longer the box-holder of the P.O.Box which was the last address which we have for him. As he was quite an elderly man during the 1980s we therefore fear for the worse, but we would even so be very interested to learn what became of him.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

BLACK BROADCASTING CORPORATION

Sir,

I’ve come to the conclusion that the BBC is a racist organisation.

They disseminate, without context, without explanation, anti-White propaganda. White privilege, White fragility, White this, White that ……

None of this is supported by the facts. Quite the reverse.

White boys especially are at the bottom of the earnings and education chin. They are most likely to be drug addicted and to kill themselves.

Douglas Murray and Frank Furedi say similar.

Yours etc.,

Roger Alsop, Islington, London, U.K.

----------------------------

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

Sir,

A few months ago you published a letter from me about an old schoolmate, Andy Cowie. I’m afraid I have some very sad news for you. Andy died at the start of 2020. I don’t know what the cause of his death was. Alas he never achieved the full brilliant potential of his schoolboy days. Even more sadly I learnt that he never married, and evidently had no known children. This was very surprising as he never seemed short of a girlfriend when I knew him – they mainly being friends of his three sisters. His seemed to be a very close and friendly family, but by all accounts there was severe family conflict and disruptions when one of his sisters – “Plain Jane” Janet – married an Asian (described to me as “a smelly Indian”). She is also now apparently dead, having died in her early 50s in mysterious circumstances.

Yours etc.,

“Old Anchorian”, Gillingham, Kent, U.K.

----------------------------

WISE COUNSEL

Sir,

Thank you for sending the email which includes commentary on the situation in Ukraine.

Having lived in Kyiv I feel compelled to write to reject the inference that Russia has any legitimate claim to invade and occupy a neighbouring country. People whom we now in Kherson are now ashamed of the brutal attrition and war crimes which still continue as Russian forces destroy their homes for no good reason. Any claim made by Putin and his cronies that the war is justified to save lives of Ukrainians who have a Russian heritage is total nonsense.

Many people whom we know in Moscow are opposed to the illegal war. One family has recently moved to Georgia to get away from the tyranny of Putin’s thugs in the police.

Although I support the patriotic aims of your organisation please do not become a channel for vile Russian propaganda in the way that Lord HawHaw did in WW2.

Yours etc.,

Hugh Counsell, London N2, U.K.

[ We have in the past tried to present both stances regarding the current regrettable conflict in the Ukraine. This however does not mean that we support either sets of arguments which we’ve re-circulated. Our own more nuanced position is fully detailed in this month’s editorial above. - Ed.]

A RAT SNIFFS AROUND AGAIN

We have recently heard the disturbing news that the notorious traitor Arthur “White kaffir” Kemp has been sniffing around in patriotic circles in the UK once again. After all the well-documented problems which this obnoxious trouble-maker has caused in both South Africa and the UK all we can say is that if any White patriot is still prepared to give him credibility then they must have very short memories!

We have carried several exposés of Kemp’s duplicitous nature in past editions of the SCN, but we have recently been informed of a most revealing web-site about him entitled “Arthur Kemp, the swarthy Nordic mongrel” which can b accessed at: henryikson.blogspot.com/2012/06/who-is-arthur-kemp-of-you-might-know.html

In a nutshell, Kemp, a doctrinaire atheist, was born in Rhodesia, his mother being Dutch and his father being born at Beira, Mozambique of German origin, but who Anglocized his surname to “Kemp” during WW2. Kemp attended UCT to study commerce, but never graduated, and it was subsequently revealed by his first wife that all his University fees were paid by the South African authorities, thus confirming that he was in the pay of the authorities from a very early age.

Whilst at UCT he stood for the SRC as a “Monster Raving Loony Party”-type candidate, and got elected – the only non-NUSAS candidate to do so in his year. Shortly after this he helped found the “Moderate Students Movement” at UCT, which was an affiliate of he “National Students Federation”, an NP-front set-up in opposition to NUSAS. In spite of his apparent NP-orientation he gravitated to the mainstream Right of South African politics, joining the infant Conservative Party of South Africa and subscribing to S.A.Patriot, writing for the magazine under the pseudonym of Adrian Kotze. After leaving UCT he did his national service in the SAP, wherein he was still mysteriously allowed to be politically active with the mainstream Right. Upon finishing his national service he first worked as a journalist on The Citizen newspaper, before joining the full-time staff of the Conservative Party of South Africa. After a couple years working for the CP his employment was terminated however, and it was subsequently revealed that this was because the CP leadership strongly suspected that he was spying on them for the NP government.

Real doubts about Kemp’s authenticity came a couple of years later however, when he published a book about the pantomime AWB outfit. Although littered with factual errors, this book obtained ominous widescale publicity, and as a result the previously obscure AWB outfit was used to demonise the “Vote No” campaign at the 1992 Constitutional Referendum. At the trial of the great South African patriot Clive Derby-Lewis for the assassination of the terrorist Chris Hani Kemp turned State’s Witness, and admitted supplying Clive with Hani’s address. After this act of treason by Kemp nobody in mainstream Rightwing circles in South Africa would of course touch him, and it soon became apparent that the CP leadership had been correct in their suspicions, and that he was definitely in the pay of the South African security services. Whereas most other agents of the security services from NP days took early retirement when offered upon the sell-out to the ANC regime, Kemp was however willing to “take the ANC’s shilling”. He thereafter renounced his support for the mainstream Right and instead started identifying himself with the “off the edge” far-Right, apparently on the instructions of the ANC. His brief was evidently to infiltrate resistance movements to the ANC and to spy on them and/or to discredit them by association.

As no-one in South Africa would touch Kemp with a bargepole because his cover had been blown, he was thus no longer of any use to the ANC internally, so they therefore moved him overseas in order for him to spy on and discredit South African resistance movements in exile. His main focus of interest in this regard was the Springbok Club and the re-launched S.A.Patriot-in-Exile. Those behind both these resistance vehicles knew all about Kemp’s phoniness however, and he achieved no success – but then he turned really nasty! Knowing that this present writer was closely involved with both bodies, and knowing that I knew all about his notorious South African past, he tried to smear me with a series of vile fabricated pornographic pictures which he claimed to be of me. In reality he had managed to “hack” into my computer and had obtained some authentic head-and-shoulder pictures of me and my address book, and then, with help of a naïve “off the edge” far-Right colleague, the late Anthony “Tony” Hancock (a “Photoshop” expert and a notorious Holocaust Denier, who was once arrested for indecent exposure!), had fabricated this smear by juxtaposing these enhanced pictures alongside some obscene pictures of a “headless” naked male in various pornographic poses. To be responsible for concocting such a disgusting fake smear campaign shows that not only is Kemp a traitor, but also that he possesses a sick, sick mind!

Thereafter the ANC seemed to realise that Kemp was of no further use to them, so he was apparently simply handed over to the British security services who used him to infiltrate the far-Right “British National Party”. On the basis of his universally panned book about the AWB outfit and another book equally littered with factual errors which he claimed to be “The History of the White Race”, Kemp quickly ingratiated himself with the naïve BNP leadership, and in no time whatsoever he was appointed their “Foreign Affairs Spokesman”. The grassroots membership of the BNP proved not to be so naïve as their leadership however, and he was soon nicknamed “The Spook” and levered out of the Party. Thereafter Kemp seemed to disappear entirely from the political scene, though it is known that for the past decade he has been jetting around between the UK, the United States and the “new” South Africa. Who is now paying for all his travel costs, and for his upkeep in general for that matter, remains a complete mystery however!

Kemp’s personal life has proved equally as chaotic and pathetic as his political life. He has been married twice, firstly to a charming South African woman he met during his youth and secondly to an American woman who he met through far-Right activities. Both marriages ended in divorce however, although he has pathetically tried to win back the affections of both women, totally without success. He had two children from his first marriage, a boy and a girl. His son now holds him in total contempt – indeed hatred – referring to him openly as “an asshole”, whereas his daughter simply uses him to get as many perks as possible from him!

In view of all this well-documented history of Kemp’s total failure in life it is dumbfounding to learn that somebody still apparently takes him seriously. We trust therefore that they will soon familiarise themselves with the totally phony and obnoxious nature of this rat, and will drop all contact with the “asshole” as a result. We would however be very keen to discover precisely what the “White kaffir” has been up to for the past decade or so.
