Operation Raise The Colours - Ongoing

 

What's this? It doesn't seem as though Operation Raise The Colours has subsided, on the contrary, it's gaining traction as hundreds of UK towns put out more flags. What can I say, keep it coming and watch in bemused bewilderment as the the Statist Left pulls them down.

Good look, guys, pull down all your patriotic flags because RACIST. And that's just it. The Islamo-Marxists hate England, its flag, its accomplishments and the very idea of them. So pull down the flag. Patriots say no, and continue to flag.

🚨BREAKING: Thousands of flags were risen across Central London last night in large-scale "Raise the Colours" operation

What can we say? The people ruling the UK effectively hate the UK. The people of the UK love it, for all its faults, and aren't about to cave in. Where will it end, civil war? Ideologically, yes, kinetically? Let's wait and see, I predict no, the Left's gonna fold in the face of massive opposition. They're astroturf mountebanks who don't carry the people.

Feel free to disagree,

Clubland Shoot Out

 

So, you ask yourself with bated breath, what's the best London club, excluding Brooks, Whites and Boodles?* Good question, best for what? General ambiance, food, architecture, location, sheer clubishness? All of those things and more, surely, come together into one harmonious whole. So what's the best? In this short post we offer up a few old favourites to compare and contrast.

The NatLib (National Liberal Club). Faded glory meets absurdly high ceilings in what some describe as the "best preserved Victorian interior in London." Perhaps it is, and it does have an outstanding terrace overlooking the Embankment Gardens where you can smoke and drink. Food? Most reasonable if fixey.

The East India Club. On St. James Square and more formal than the shockingly slack NatLib. Enjoy the American Bar, which has faux American timbers, wonder at the history of the storied Waterloo Room and enjoy an excellent Sunday lunch. No kidding, it's good.

In & Out. Once housed in grander surroundings, the fabled In & Out still ain't shabby, being housed in Nancy Astor's place on St. James Square. Congenial and well-priced bar food at the Goat Brasserie, an awesome courtyard, where you can smoke, and the place is beautiful. Very much open on the weekend.

Farmers. I love the Farmers Club. It's just a couple of addresses down from the NatLib on Whitehall Place and isn't grand architecturally. But it is well put together in a country house kind of way, has rooms, delicious food and a great if small terrace where you can watch the NatLib yahoos whoop it up 500 yards away. Book a room while you can, they're in demand.

Reform. Fabled site of around the world in so many days, Reform's a cut above, with beautiful architecture, delicious food and a perfect garden which it shares with the Trav and Athenaeum. It also has rooms, which is great but... Madonna filmed there. I asked a member, "Didn't Madonna film here?" And she looked at me, "Hardly our finest moment."

So what's the best Club, who wins the shootout? It all depends, because they're all good in their various ways. But let's hold fire, Team LSP is visiting the UK in September where we'll put these establishments, and several more, to the acid test.

Rus in Urbe,

*I used to love Boodles but that's another episode.

Deranged Hippies Meet Savage

 

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller was furiously heckled by deranged white Marxist hippies as he visited Union Station in DC to congratulate National Guard troops for doing their part to restore order to the nation's crime infested capital. His reply was savage, check it out:

🚨 LMAO! While at Union Station in DC, Stephen Miller just DESTROYED the leftist “protestors” who are yelling at National Guard troops

“We are going to ignore these STUPID WHITE HIPPIES that all need to go home and take a nap because they’re all over ninety years old.” 🤣🔥

Good work, Commies. Behold yourselves defending the carjackings, murders, rapes and crime which have made DC yet another American urban hellhole run by Democrats. Great platform to campaign on and what grievous hypocrisy; it's almost as though they don't care about the black crime that's terrorizing black communities.

DC crime since the announcement of federal control versus the 7 days prior:

Robbery ⬇️46%

ADW ⬇️6%

Carjacking ⬇️83%

Car Theft ⬇️21%

Violent Crime ⬇️22%

Property Crime ⬇️6%

All Crimes⬇️8%

While federal assistance gives us a boost, we must repeal the misguided Comprehensive…

— DC Police Union (@DCPoliceUnion) August 18, 2025

Of course it doesn't have to be that way. Since federalization DC crime's way down. Huh, how very Fascist, and what a mystery, how could enforcing the law amount to more law and order? Yes, magnum mysterium. I say again, it's as though DC's leftist rulers don't actually care about the people they putatively govern. Perhaps they're only in it for the cash and power as their city falls down around them.

Seems like a stop of sorts has been put to that and who knows, maybe the DC experiment will spread to other American cities. Yes please. In the meanwhile, the hippies need to go home, regroup and emigrate to San Francisco and Austin, where they can be... kettled.

Just Chilling

 

Surely, LSP, which hardly sounds like a real name, you mean 'baking'" Well you have a point, it's ridiculously hot here in the great state of Texas because of climate change. That's right, we've moved from balmy July to oven-hot August. So what to do?

The same old thing, not unlike Wellington at Waterloo, when you think on it. Get up, drink strong coffee on the back deck, say Morning Prayer 1928 style, wash up and then take the dog for a constitutional. Sometimes that means a walk to the Pick 'n Steal, today it meant fallow ground behind the Compound.

What was this green space? Something to do with a hospital, I think, now it's a field. Why, we ask ourselves, is it not a communal pool? Good question. Green field dog run complete, amble over to Craig Street and enjoy the shade of some old oaks while you look at what was once a house. The place was demolished last year and lies empty, reclaimed by nature.

A parable for our declining civilization? Perhaps, but don't get too excited, people are moving here from Dallas, Alberta and California because property's still comparatively cheap, which means it won't be in a year or so. Still, reflect on this: Our town numbered some 20,000 souls well into the 1950s, it's around a third of that now. Sic transit, eh? Don't say ancient Rome.

EL SENOR

In other news, El Senor scored a major PR victory in his war against war; behold all those European, vassals leaders, sitting in the Office. Will it bring peace? Dunno, above my pay grade, but a reverse Kissinger alliance with Russia against China would be interesting, don't you think? And let's get back all those billions we've spent on Biden's war at taxpayer expense.

That in mind, sorry UK, better get in line and while you're at it, stop putting people in prison for Wrong Think, you Stasi mountebanks.

Cheers,

LSP

Operation Raise The Colours

 

It's the strangest thing, all over the UK patriots are putting up flags.

Akkad comments:

Right on, Sargon, but here's the thing. The Left hates England, its culture and heritage, to say nothing of its religion, and wants to destroy it, they're nihilists at heart. Hence their alliance with Moslems. To say nothing of that old leftist canard, import the votes.

The Brits? Maybe they're suffering from multiculti fatigue, so wave the flag of St. George. That said, boys, you'll note that flag's cruciform, it's Christian. Reclaim that, reclaim your identity and free yourselves from your rainbow, globalist, elite, antichrist rulers.

Will it end in a fight? Let's see.

Raise The Colours,

LSP

Get Rid Of The Dam Unicorn

 

Do you support this? Yes, yes we do. Then there's what used to be called Great Britain, where a DEI Moslem's been busted for assault, bodily harm and all of that.

Good luck, Mohammad Aziz, and what can we say, chant, and sing? DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH. Better believe it.

Listen Up France And Everywhere Else

 

This isn't a Frenchy blog; we're not Francophiles here at the Compound. On the contrary, we enjoy pre-lunch drinks in the Waterloo Room of the East India Club, that's us. But perhaps Marine LePen has a point and a good one?

Could it possibly be that Leftist suicidal empathy is meeting it's match? In France? Well it better had do or there won't be anything left but a Caliphate and  Hijabs all 'round. 

Waterloo Room

Who knows, will Lutherans, Anglicans, Presbyterians and Roman Catholics wake up in defense of the Faith and its very current threat, or will they kowtow to Islam like the rainbow apostate Marxists they are.

Your Call,

LSP

The Assumption

 

Today's the great Feast of the Assumption, which is typically ignored or hated by protestants because they think it idolatry. Here at the Compound we think it a singular devotion appropriate to the Mother of God, Mary Most Holy, the House of Gold. Here:

Deus, qui virginálem aulam beátæ Maríæ, in qua habitáres, elígere dignátus es: da, quǽsumus; ut, sua nos defensióne munitos, jucúndos fácias suæ intéresse festivitáti: Qui vivis et regnas, cum Deo Patre in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum." 

Roughly translated by AI:

O God, Who chose the virginal dwelling of the blessed Mary to be Your abode, grant, we beseech You, that, defended by her protection, You may make us joyful to participate in her festival. Who lives and reigns with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever.

In other news, it's VJ Day and a friend went to the Cenotaph in London to mark it. Well done him, but he was one of a small handful to honor our forgotten army. Bad show, quondam Great Britain.

Best,

LSP

It Rained

 

Yes, at last, it rained. What. Bliss. Of course if you lived in Ireland or, say, Aberystwth, it wouldn't be such a big deal but here in Texas it is. The heavens opened, lightning cracked down, thunder rolled and all was good on the porch of the Compound.

In related news, Texas Democrats  are being redistricted out of existence. Could this gentle rain be their liberal tears, flowing from the rainbow heavens? Such sweet tears.

Your Gun Rights Pal,

LSP

Dark Star

Dark Star. All hail.

See you at the Farmers' Club,

LSP

PS. Farmers is unpretentious, well put together and a perfect location; members are the right stuff and you can't go wrong there. At least that's what I think. If you're planning a Whitehall gettaway, check it out. Seriously.

Everything's Just Fine - UK, We're Looking At You

 

Everything's just fine in the Sceptered Isle, which is why this Coinbase ad was banned from the UK's national networks. Almost as though they think the country's serf-peasant class weren't able to watch it on the internet. Here, have a look:

 

🚨 TV ADVERT DEPICTING THE STATE OF BRITAIN HAS BEEN BANNED!!!

Coinbase CEO tweeted “Our ad which got banned in the UK by the TV networks has sparked quite a reaction. If you can't say it, then there must be a kernel of truth in it,” pic.twitter.com/gRIsJIWhEd

Sometimes, dear friends, it's better in song. On topic, do you remember a time when we used to accuse the Soviets, rightly, of banning free speech and dissent?

Dogging

 

Just another day at the Compound. Go downstairs and there's a dog sleeping on the sofa, another dog's waiting on the landing, and lo and behold, there's an adorable puppy on your front porch. What to do? Abandon the pup as he starts to cry by your corner ferns? Allow the poor little creature to be gerrymandered outta existence like a Democrat fraud?

No, take the pup in, heal its wounds, clean out its fleas, watch it mewl and nip in its adorable way and then pass it on to animal services in Hillsboro Texas. "Dam, that's a pretty puppy. Here's what they do, throw 'em off on the corner of your yard."

he died of cuteness

Yeah they do, and that's too bad. The other option's this: throw out your unwanted dog in the country and drive off. Watch, or don't watch, as that dog packs up and starts to attack lambs, calves and all of that. Then behold the farmers who shoot that dog.

I did that once. A gang of Chows had packed up east of I35, threatening livestock and human beings. "LSP, you got a rifle? Gotta shoot some Chows." So we sallied forth, rifles in hand, against the Chow menace. Result? No Chows, someone had shot them the day before.

brave pup

Point being, DO NOT drop your dog off as though it were some kind of trash. Not acceptable. Here at the Compound we do rescues but can only take so many in. Take note. We're also armed to the teeth.

Your Best Friend,

LSP
