October 2025 Edition
At this year’s Conservative Party Conference, Robert Jenrick, the Shadow Secretary of State for Justice, criticised Handsworth, a predominantly non-White inner-city ghetto area of Birmingham, for its lack of integration, saying that during a recent visit there he never saw another White face. By so doing he illustrated what has been wrong for so long with the establishment parties of Britain. It is not “integration” which is needed – it is repatriation!
The fact that an area of one of the major cities in the United Kingdom has now been effectively taken over by third-world immigrants - and alas Handsworth is not alone in this respect - is shocking in the extreme, and explains why four independent Mohammedan candidates were successful at the last General Election – thus poisoning the British body-politic. But more integration, as suggested by Mr. Jenrick and by others, is clearly not the answer, as this will only spread the poison. As John Mikula (see August 2010 SCN) once accurately stated during a speech at the Durban Parliamentary Debating Society: “If you mix sand into ice cream it doesn’t make the sand taste nice; it ruins the ice cream!”.
The long-term solution to the non-White immigration problem is of course to enact a speedy and effective policy of repatriation, but before this can be accomplished surely it is far better for the immigrants and their descendants to remain segregated in their own ghetto areas, rather than integrating into the wider British community with all the problems which this will inevitably entail. It might also be wisest to restrict the franchise to those with an ancestral right of residence in the UK, thus preventing any further anti-Semitic Mohammedan aliens from sitting in our ancient Parliament.
There are those of course who bizarrely maintain that immigration is “good for Britain”. How the diminishing of any advanced country’s traditional culture and identity can ever be considered “good” for that country of course defies all logic. Those who advocate this warped idea argue that the NHS, the care-home system and many types of manual work would collapse without non-White immigration. But why? There is largescale unemployment and under-employment throughout the country, much of this masked by those claiming long-term (and often disputed) benefits not being included in official unemployment figures. British citizens with generations of background in the country are surely far better qualified to fulfil roles in the NHS and the care-home system than primitive third-world immigrants – and the increasing use of AI-generated technology will increasingly eliminate the need for the drudgery of many low-skilled manual labour occupations.
But there will be another great advantage to the repatriation of all the non-White immigrants and their descendants apart from providing more employment for indigenous Britons and the curtailment of the poisoning of our national culture. Handsworth was evidently a rich agricultural area prior to the industrial revolution, so perhaps once all the third-world aliens have been repatriated, and the ghetto itself levelled, the area could then be transformed back to its former natural agricultural usage. Robert Jenrick would then be able to walk around the pristine fields with absolute pride at not seeing another White face for miles around!

SPRINGBOK CLUB NEWS
For the first time the annual "Raising of the Flag" ceremony, which the Springbok Club again co-ordinated, was held in central London this year. The site chosen was outside St.Clement Danes' Church in The Strand where a statue to Marshal of the RAF Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris stands. This was considered a most appropriate site for the ceremony because Marshal of the RAF Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris lived in Rhodesia from 1910 to 1915, prior to joining the Royal Flying Corps which before the end of WW1 became part of the infant RAF, a service in which he served with distinction up until the end of WW2. After this war was over he was seriously considered for the appointment of Governor of Southern Rhodesia, but alas this was vetoed by certain liberal elements within the then Southern Rhodesian Government. Ever thereafter however he would always assert: "I was, and I remain a Rhodesian".
Prior to the commencement of the ceremony a most happy event took place at St.Clement Danes’ Church, namely a traditional wedding featuring a beaming obviously British couple! Even though this delayed the start of the ceremony nobody complained, and indeed it was observed that this could well be a very good omen for the future! Proceedings were eventually called to order by this year’s parade commander Senior Aircraftsman Martin Stewart-Whyte, after which the Union and Rhodesian Flags, which had been tethered together as a sign of unity between the two brother nations, were raised by Miss Hannah Mort, a few words were said about the life and achievements of Marshal of the RAF Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris by the current Chairman of the Springbok Club, and the national anthem was then sung.
Everyone then adjourned to the near-by “George” pub where toasts were raised to the King and Queen, to the immortal memories of Mr. Peter Sladden (who of course initiated the ceremony “in exile” in 1981) and Marshal of the RAF Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris, and to all those who had fought and died for Rhodesia. Following this Susan Gordon gave a highly fascinating and well-researched illustrated talk about Cecil John Rhodes and the contribution which he made to the countries which bore his name, before the most enjoyable and inspiring day was rounded off with some delicious meals and convivial conversation.
----------------------------
In November the Springbok Club will be holding its annual UDI Day celebration event, which this year will feature a guest speaker whose father played a significant role in the development of Rhodesia, and in December will be commemorating the Day of the Vow with a report-back meeting at which the current situation in the “new” South Africa will be reported on. The Springbok Club’s 2026 AGM will be held in January next year, and in February 2026 the organisation will be staging a trip to Portsmouth for a special event. Further details about all these activities will be given in next month’s SCN.
------------------------------------------------------------------
PATRIOTIC FORUM NEWS
The Patriotic Forum will shortly be staging a meeting where the guest speakers will be a leading official from the Turning Point UK organisation and a sitting county councillor. The Patriotic Forum also hopes to welcome a leading official from a prominent conservative (with a small “c”!) think-tank as guest speaker early next year.

MESSAGE FROM THE SAVE OUR RED SQIRRELS ORGANISATION
Marie Carter-Robb, the founder of the “Save Our Red Squirrels” campaign, writes as follows :-
“Hi everyone,
“As Red Squirrel Awareness Week draws to a close, our petition has just passed 65,000 voices – and it’s growing fast.
“To help us reach even more people this weekend, the brilliant Terry Abraham – award-winning filmmaker behind Cumbria’s Red Squirrels – has shared a new short film showing exactly what we’re fighting for: a future where red squirrels still exist in our woodlands. Watch the video now – it’s just 57 seconds :-

WOMEN’S BRITISH LIONS
In the essay “Let the Lions Roar” (which was actually written several years ago now before Britain left the EU, but which can still be accessed at: http://www.springbk.org.uk/speech7.htm) it was argued that the concept of British Lions sides (united teams consisting of players from all four parts of the British Nation) as exists in Rugby Union should also be adopted by other sports. We have therefore commented with approval in the more recent past when the idea of establishing a Women’s British Lions Rugby Union squad has been mooted.
It has therefore been with great pleasure to learn recently that such a Women’s British Lions Rugby Union team has now definitely been established (albeit under the unfortunate “politically correct” title of the “Women’s British and Irish Lions”), who will tour New Zealand in 2027 playing three Test Matches and a number of regional warm-up games. We can only praise and welcome this development therefore and wish all the players and officials involved every success for a most exciting historic tour, and trust that this will thus become the first of many.

DISTURBING NEWS FROM CANADA
We have recently received a most worrying report from the Rebel News media outlet in Canada which reads as follows :-
“Rebel News CEO Ezra Levant was just arrested in Toronto!
“Ezra was on the scene of a pro-Israel street rally — the same rally where David Menzies was arrested two weeks ago under the direction of pro-Hamas counter-protesters.
“Our lawyer, Leora Shemesh has been informed about this unfolding situation, and is currently working to get him out.
“Visit: www.SaveEzra.com for more details on this story and stay tuned for updates as they come in.
“Toronto police are failing at their primary mission of fighting crime and keeping the peace. And now they're targeting journalists who are exposing their dereliction of duty.
“Not only will we pay to get Ezra out, but we will also go after every single cop involved in his arrest. We need to show the Toronto police how to do their job.
“Yours truly,
“Rebel News
“P.S. This is just more proof of Canada's two-tier policing - while pro-Hamas thugs are handled with kid gloves as they call for genocide, independent journalists are being arrested for exposing them.”

FREXIT PETITION
We have often stated in the past that Brexit, Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union, should not be regarded as an end in itself. We are not anti-European, we are only opposed to the idea of a united Europe, and so therefore just as we gloried in our own country’s re-assertion of national freedom and independence, so also do we support our brother nation-states’ quests for the restoration of their own freedom and independence.
It was therefore most pleasing to learn of the growth of a movement in France pressing for a referendum on “Frexit”, which seeks to unite French EuroSceptics from all political parties and from none who support this aim. Although of course in French, their petition campaign web-site is of significant interest, and can be accessed at :-

I AM A RHODESIAN
We recently spotted a brilliant posting on the “When we were in Rhodesia” FaceBook page entitled “I am a Rhodesian”. It read as follows :-
Rhodesians are kindly folk, Honorable they try to be. Obliging, kind and thoughtful, Dependably carefree … Ever there with open door Smiles to welcome thee I am proud of my heritage, Am not from Zimbabwe … No, I am Rhodesian …
RHODESIAN … that’s me.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW ?
No.323: Mrs. MOIRA BADSTUBNER of Wartburg.
Moira Badstubner lived initially on the Bluff in Durban with her husband (who is sadly believed to have died a few years ago) Mr. H.H.Badstubner, but subsequently moved to Wartburg in central Natal. She and her husband were firm supporters of the Conservative Party of South African and wrote regular letters to the Durban press opposing the sell-out policies of the NP government, and were also subscribers to the original S.A.Patriot magazine. A package sent to her last known address in Wartburg was alas returned to us recently as evidently she is no longer known in the area. It would therefore be good to learn what has become of her.

RECOMMENDED WEB-SITE OF THE MONTH
Our own “Raising of the Flag” ceremony has never seemed more topical and has never had more potency than this year, for it has dovetailed with a fantastic upsurge in patriotic sentiment. This upsurge has manifested itself by the positioning of Union Flags (along with English, Scottish, Ulster and Welsh flags) on lampposts throughout the nation. A web-site dedicated to this “Operation Raise the Colours” can be found at :-

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
CAUSE AND EFFECT
Sir,
Thanks for re-circulating this ZeroHedge posting (https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/south-africas-energy-crisis-could-spark-political-and-economic-disaster) via your Springbok Special Circulation List. More nails in the coffin for the so-called Rainbow nation! Blacks demonstrate clearly they are not up to running a westernised civilisation, They have brought South Africa to ruin. The anti-Apartheid mob remain silent.
Yours etc.,
Ann Lloyd, Norfolk, U.K.

INTRIGUE AT UNILEVER
During the era of civilised rule in South Africa many giant multi-national corporations with subsidiaries in the country were subjected to hate campaigns by far Left anti-South African outfits. Some of the multi-national companies simply ignored this intimidation, but others meekly complied with their demands by disregarding South African employment laws and employing overseas managerial staff to enforce racial integration in the workplace. One multi-national which seemed over-eager to kow-tow to the anti-South African intimidators was Unilever, the giant Anglo-Dutch margarine to soap powders and beauty-products giant.
Unilever’s management’s attempts to defy the structure of South African society didn’t go down well with the majority of their White administrative and clerical employees at their headquarters in Durban however, and many directives emanating from their international parent company were simply ignored. As a result replacement managers were then imported from overseas, including from Germany and Japan. One somewhat lower-ranked official who was placed in the company’s Organisational Division was a Dutchman (and by “Dutchman” we mean he came from the Netherlands!) by the name of Jan Vat, a person who had previously evidently worked as an officer in the merchant navy, but didn’t seem remotely qualified for his position in this Unilever department, which included their I.T. division.
Mnr. Vat’s style of management was aggressive and confrontational. He managed to reduce one young White female member of staff under his control to tears by irrationally accusing her of incompetence, but reserved some of his most despotic personal venom for a young British-South African who had been quite open in expressing his patriotic sentiments.
The South African authorities were of course fully aware of the subversion being spread within certain multi-national subsidiaries such as Unilever, and indeed had secured at least two operatives working voluntarily within Unilever’s Durban headquarters who reported back to the security services about the activities and directives of the company’s more sinister managerial figures. One of these security services operatives was the young British-South African who Jan Vat had earlier initiated a personal vendetta campaign against.
When Mnr. Vat organised a lunchtime seminar featuring a subversive video attacking the then structure of South African society he invited along all his fellow junior-management staff in his department – including of course the young British South African who he despised. Needless to say, details about this subversive seminar reached the South African security services within minutes! Shortly after this Mnr. Vat completely disappeared from the scene – it is not certain whether he was officially deported from the country or whether he left of his own accord once he knew that “his number was up”, but one thing is for certain and that is that the security services were fully on the ball and had successfully identified this particular enemy within!
