Well, the emotional blackmail from the BBC (along with others) has worked and we can now look forward to thousands of Syrians enriching our country. You have to hand it to the BBC, they use the power of their broadcasting monopoly to undermine our country at every opportunity! Anyway here’s a new open thread.
WEEKEND OPEN THREAD!

We want to go to Almanya! Almanya now!
The ever insightful Peter Hitchens makes an interesting point. The BBC gives us wall-to-wall coverage of the refugees (sic) chanting “Germany, Germany” and holding up placards. But as he points out:
“And why, by the way, do they use the English name for Germany when they chant? In Arabic and Turkish, that country is called ‘Almanya’, in Kurdish something similar. The Germans themselves call it ‘Deutschland’. In Hungarian, it’s ‘Nemetorszag’. Did someone hope that British and American TV would be there?”
See http://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/2015/09/we-wont-save-refugees-by-destroying-our-own-country.html
P.S. A German friend of mine advises that his country are planning to change their national anthem from ‘Deutschland uber alles’ to ‘Deutschland under Allah’.

Hitchens is a hero.
Yet this article-for the first time- ought to worry us.
Because he openly says that he fears to describe the “vulnerable young men” as what he thinks them to be.
For fear of the “Thought Police”.
Chilling that one of our last great hopes has already felt enough of Islams hot breath down his neck, to temper what he believes to be the truth.
Not only Islam either-was In Oxford a few weeks ago,and really hope he`ll still be safe to walk and use his bike there for a while yet….sense he`ll be in danger within our lifetimes, given the Brownshirt tendency that I saw in Dorset the other night.

I talk, of course, of the British EU membership referendum
The BBC this morning are in celebratory mood – thousands of ‘migrants, mostly refugees’ (they most carefully) inform us are at last flooding across the German border and, apparently, getting a warm welcome. Quite what Merkel is up to is anyone’s guess? There’s no doubt the tv pictures will be beamed around North Africa and the Middle East and will elicite the inevitable result : one happy migrant arrival gets you a hundred more setting out on the road. So good luck with that, Germany.
Call the question In/Out, Yes/No or Remain/Leave – the message is clear. A future with the EU of ever closer union, ever more migrants and wide open borders… or perhaps not – if we can only get out now.
I think the BBC has a Pyrric victory on its hands this morning and I think Merkel has badly miscalculated public opinion both here in Britain and elsewhere – but that’s her problem and, hopefully for not much longer, it won’t be ours.
German nineteenth century unification was built on ‘blood and iron’

Whilst the BBC has been in the vanguard of the movement to open our borders all summer, other media outlets, including some usually sensible ones, have recently joined in. Why ? I can understand that politicians are scared of the leftist manipulation of social media and of the BBC, and so caved in, but why the Mail or Telegraph and Times for example? After all there is ample evidence from across the country that the majority of British people do not want anymore immigrants in our country for very sensible reasons. But they would agree to spending more money on aiding these people to stay where they are. Only Breitbart seems to have stood against the tide of immigrants about to flood our country.
This seems to be a Europe wide phenomena with the media and governments all conniving to force their reluctant populations to accept more immigrants by the million. This is just the latest manifestation of the steady Islamification of Europe which has been going on for 20 or 30 years with the apparent agreement of the political classes even though their populations don’t want it.
One important reason that populations are not showing their opposition more vigorously, is that the news is managed by European media to re-assure that immigration is good , to warn that opposition is racist, to witch hunt anyone who still is brave enough to stand up and be counted and in extreme cases the Muslims kill determined protesters, with the media remaining passive and broadly pro Muslim. To back up this suppression of opposition to immigration the politicians pass laws which make it tough to protest and use the police to suppress any demonstrations.
The media is full of leftists who probably think that nation states are the root of many problems and long for a world without borders. They may foolishly see filling Europe with millions of Muslims as a means to the end of nations and borders. A giant very unpleasant shock awaits, but it will be too late by then. But surely few politicians see the world in those terms, so why are they allowing this to happen? Indeed in Chancellor Merkel’s and President Hollande’s case actually promoting it big time.
If free expression still exists in 50 years time and if we are not a Muslim continent by then , both very big ifs, the decline of the powerful and civilised Europe and its ‘willing’ participation in its own subjugation by the barbarous and backward religion of Islam, will make a fascinating study.

You’ve pretty much put your finger on it: the Press certainly is full of Leftists and while they may write for a nominally Right of centre publication like the Telegraph, you only have to read some of the dross inside to see what is really going on.
Today, for example, in an article about Hall’s latest ‘Washington Monument’ threat to close BBC Four, the Telegraph’s headline actually says the move is ‘in response to Tory Cuts’ – the sort of phrase more usually found on an SWP banner.
There is another factor at work, as well as entryism. The social pressure to conform among media hacks is intense and it is tripled if they believe that conformity will sell newspapers. The Mail, in particular, is shameless in this regard.

I think people are confused,frustrated and angry because they cannot work out the motives of our leaders regarding the mass immigration of Islam. Is it guilt? Is it a demonstration of compassion on our behalf? Is it a social experiment, as you have suggested, to create a world without borders. I try to be rational and objective about the situation. But the Islamic movement has broadcast its intentions many,many times with threats of and actual violence. Many times. It is crystal clear in its goals. It is not hiding its intentions and its ambition. It admits it is medieval in its morals and sensibilities. It hates all forms of democracy and freedom, and will not rest until the World is returned to the 15th century. It hates the leaders and the countries that are helping it. All this and more it admits readily.
The politicians and leaders know this as much as you, me and the next person. This begs the question, why is islam CLEARLY AND DELIBERATELY being ushered in to Europe.

It would appear that Saudi Arabia has become alarmed that their creation ISIS is likely to be utterly destroyed by the Assad forces with the assistance of Russian troops and equipment. What could be worse than ISIS rampaging around the Middle East ? Well apparently the Khuffar forces of a non Muslim army backing up the Heretic regime of Amahdi Muslims.
To this end they have got their puppet, proxy bought & paid for foreign spokesman John Kerry to spell out their policy.
Saudi (and therefore the West) doesn’t want ISIS destroyed for some reason, they want it ‘degraded’ and what Saudi pays for Saudi normally gets, only it can’t buy Vladimir Putin, and it’s unlikely the US politicians could be bribed to the extent they would start a war with Russia.
Why on earth would anyone in the West oppose the complete & utter destruction of a militant group like ISIS? It could only possibly be in Saudi interest to keep them active.
More evidence of the corruption and the bribery of Western politicians by the oil rich Sunni Muslim gulf states.

Many years ago I worked for an international company that operated as three divisions: the Americas, Asia and EMEA. The latter abbreviation stood for ‘Europe, Middle East and Africa’ and was an American term formulated in the 1960s. But that term drives the political thinking of the elite. The goal is World government, under the auspices of the UN and for the benefit of big business, unhindered by trade restrictions and moral purpose. However, going from 200+ nations to a single, global state in one move is not going to happen. The interim stage is to consolidate nation states into a small number of continental-sized entities and the EU is the prototype and trailblazer. Only it is not the EU as most people comprehend it – the term EMEA is far more descriptive, or the term Eurabia. To destroy the existing countries and create a new synthetic identity you need to change the people that populate them, as that is the main thing that defines them. That, in a nutshell is what is happening. And it is only early days – today’s population movements are but a trickle compared to what will happen during the next 30 years. Today it is ‘refugees from war’. Tomorrow it will be refugees from poverty and environmental refugees and their numbers are practically limitless.

That term ‘EMEA’ is now more or less universal right throughout US business and most US corporations not only use it but actually build their enterprises around it.
The other favoured stratagem is basing their operations in Germany (“hey! It’s the center of Yoorp!”) and allowing the Germans to ruin operations in all the countries where their business methods don’t work very well (which is a surprising number of then, whatever they think).
Giant corporations don’t like small countries. In fact they tend not to like countries at all (even their own in some cases) and would happily assist the destruction of them if they could be repalced with a nice, easy to manipulate bureaucracy like the EU.
Corporatism is an agency of the devil.

I watched the short video featuring Barbara Spectre and the first thought that hit me was: World Government. That is what she wants to work toward. The posts below that one by Thoughtful and from a variety of contributors all seemed, without stating anything like it, to be inadvertently hinting at the very same thing. And now yours, Ian, is putting a name on it, together with a viable process toward it, right at the forefront.
It is interesting to hear not just recent speculation that the UK may seek to increase its air attacks on ISIS to include Syria but actually hear calls for it on the BBC & via the BBC hear of them elsewhere in mainstream print media. That would effectively take the USA and the UK into a very interesting Coalition with the Russians. Where after Syria?
Lebanon? Jordan? Israel?

I see the pathetic PC BBC, on their useless Sunday Morning Live programme, are entertaining the idea of ‘negotiating’ with ISIS as a point of discussion; the very fact that they should propose such a topic for debate is an irresponsible disgrace that typifies their gutless, appeasing leftie values. I won’t be watching it, that’s for sure. Also, I stomached some of the Marr show this morning and was mildly looking forward to the segment on early Russian space flight advances; however, my interested was soon met with disgust when Marr turned the interview, with a representative from the Science Museum, into a left-wing luvvie fest on gender equality and the female representation in the science field. Pathetic!
I also saw a tambourine-tapping, sandal-wearing BBC reporter welcoming immigrants off a train in Germany; now, whatever your views on the migrant crisis and the undoubted suffering of woman and children that is upsetting to see, it is fundamental that a national broadcaster should remain neutral i.e. not f******* throwing flowers and incense at and shouting ‘Welcome, welcome…’ to those immigrants disembarking off a train. I AM SICK to death with an out-of-control BBC that is using its behemoth position to spread pure left-wing propaganda.

Having fellow Germans BILLETED on you, in some sense the least worst option, was not really as popular as is now being made out.

A large proportion of British citizens are not on the internet and will not be aware of the petition.
However, considering AlBeeb’s own telly polls over the past two years over something like 70% of the people that participated, voted against immigration.
What is more strange, a very large majority of views about immigration appearing in AlBeeb’s own ‘blogs’, expressed a very strong opinion against more immigrants coming in to this country ?

I have, for a long time, noted the unholy alliance between the hard left and big business on the subject of mass immigration. It’s a very peculiar marriage of polar opposites. The lefties are instinctively, as Orwell pointed out, always approving of alien cultures, particularly if they can be used to ridicule their own. We are often told how hard these eastern Europeans work and how lazy we native Brits are. I just don’t understand it, indeed it seems to me to be a sort of political perversion, but they’ve been like it for decades and show little sign of changing. So it’s “natural” for them to want more and more “others” regardless of where they’re from, just so long as they aren’t “us”. It’s actually the most base form of inverted racism if you think about it; quite astonishing because these creepy left wing types are the first to squeal “racist” at anyone who opposes them.
Big business, on the other hand, clearly wants as many people to work for a pittance, buy their products and use their shops. It makes an awful lot of sense to have an open borders immigration system if you’re only, selfishly, looking after number one.
However the rest of us, those who want jobs, homes and communities where we feel at ease, view the whole thing with a rather more jaundiced eye. After all we have the privilege of actually living with this Frankenstein’s monster of a community and not just waffling about it on the bloody BBC.

The BBC describes the Survation poll in the Sunday Express as a “shock”. Support for leaving Europe at 51%, strong overall opposition to more immigration – some objecting to ANY Syrians being admitted.
Why is this a “shock” – because the BBC lives in its own bubble. It is totally out of touch with broad swathes of the public, and if they dare to speak up they are regarded as ignorant or misguided or racist.
Hopefully the Survation poll will be confirmed by other polls. Packing the audience of an Any Questions audience, and filtering the callers to Any Answers, is NOT the way to keep a finger on the pulse of public opinion.
I am hoping that the immigration crisis carries on – it is bound to, as the Hungarian PM has said, there are hundreds of thousands more heading towards Europe, and more to come beyond that. It is not difficult to suggest that millions of migrants will be trying to reach Europe in the next few years. All this is over and above the heavy flow of immigration in to the UK already – over 600,000 last year. Even the most blase of people will start to focus on the numbers.
And when people focus on the numbers properly – the costs in economic and cultural dislocation – they will realise that we are truly in danger of being swamped, that we have virtually no control of our borders.
And the next logical step is to accept that we can only regain control of our borders by leaving Europe.

Whereas I’m not sure Dave can think that far ahead, let alone plan for it. Even Osborne, who seems to be a ‘far sharper chisel in the tool chest’, doesn’t seem to have any cohesive & clear plan for the economy. They both seem very dependent on the ‘advisor of the minute’.
But back to Cameron. He has walked into a clumsy debacle when he could have done himself, his Party and, maybe the UK, a lot of good. Had he, say, agreed earlier on to take some Syrian Yazidi & Syrian Christian refugees it would have protected one flank. Then, if instead of board surfing in Cornwall, he had been on the plane & train around EU member capitals and the UN really seeking a ‘solution at source’ he might have seemed a bit more like a statesman and, to my mind, carried a bit more weight into the EU reform negotiations. He keeps talking about the negotiations but he’s leaving it mighty late. If the refugee crisis gets worse he may not get any and the clock to the commitment to Referendum is ticking merrily away.
He’s now being attacked on two sides and I feel more and more voters will turn to him and make a Top Gear/US school & college-style Loser gesture with their hands as the big deadline approaches. Then they will vote accordingly in the Referendum.
Elections for the new Conservative leader probably start no later than 1 January 2018 but could be closer to exactly two years from now.

Instead, they have argued that accepting large numbers of Syrians is a threat to their safety, as terrorists could be hiding within an influx of people.

If you do: I would suggest you look at the treatment meted out to whites in South Africa and Zimbabwe by Africans and to Christians in the Islamic State and Pakistan by Muslims.

Oh goody-do you want Hamas, Islamic State(both ” real” and “so-called”…oh, and aspirational and self-referral…don`t forget self-identifying too!)…Fatah or Islamic Jihad?…Hezb`ollah or Salafist?…with an eye-taking initiative from our Wahhabist friends of Corbyn/Livingston?).
I`m answering my own question from yesterday-pretty bloody clear now why the Saudis etal won`t take a single so-called refugee unlike the fuggin stoopid West!
This nest of jihadist killers are coming to the boil in the Lebanon, and the Saudis are-as ever-in the export business.
Pay for the East London Mosque-Mardells wigstand in Beiruts Hilton…but sure as fun, franchise out the terrors well away from the Kings and Princes of Saudi Arabia and its playpens of bloodied sand . little boys ears and stoned womens FGM bits pickled in Johnnie Walker.
Trust Mardell to be out there-and TWATO to be shilling still for Islam.
Can only imagine this KinderTransport crap comes from raiding the basement…now Sir Nick Wintons not around to tell us the truth about it.

The BBC prefers a method of news presentation that ‘tells stories’
When it suits the narrative
At other times the BBC prefers statistics-based news reports
When they match the narrative
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-34138287
Here’s a story the BBC have gone looking for…
‘Freedom of Information requests sent to all UK forces showed there were nearly 4,000 alleged physical sexual assaults and more than 600 rapes’
‘All UK forces responded to a BBC FOI request asking how many sexual offences were recorded by the police at schools during the last three academic years, from 2012 to 2015. Police Scotland provided figures for 2011-2013.’
Now it is not entirely clear whether the BBC launched the FOIs off their own bat or were, perhaps, nudged to do so…
‘Jon Brown, head of Sexual Abuse Programmes at the NSPCC, said: “These figures are very disturbing…”‘
‘The National Police Chiefs’ Council lead for child protection, Chief Constable Simon Bailey, fears the problem may be even worse…’
‘The Children’s Commissioner for England, Anne Longfield, said schools and professionals working with children must be more attuned to abuse…’
So lots and lots of what you might call ‘stakeholder’ input to the story. Plus a clear demand for more ‘sex and relationship education’ – why? – because the ‘experts’ say so!
The BBC adds the inevitable human story aspect:
‘Eighteen-year-old Shannon Rooney, from Stirlingshire… has waived her right to anonymity…’
‘One boy, who did not want to be identified, was sexually assaulted in a classroom by three of his friends when he was 15. …. “The principal at the time tried to put it down to ‘rugby locker-room banter’… ‘
But one wonders just how really representative these two examples are of the apparently growing problem?
Here’s my anecdote:
Some years ago now, a rather left-leaning friend of mine was employed – reasonably high up – in a London Borough. In quiet personal conversation he expressed his surprise at the amount of sexual activity (much of it unwelcomed by one of the parties involved) occurring in Comprehensive schools in the borough concerned. The cases were fairly frankly relayed to him by the schools and they might have caused no end of sensitive legal and PR problems.
My friend and I were at school together in the 1970s and he explained how this was all very different from what we had experienced. I asked him what had changed to cause this? He is – as have pointed out – left-leaning and has always been prepared to toe the line for career reasons in the public sector, as one must. I admit I was taken aback when he said simply and baldly in reply: “Oh, it’s a black thing”

The idiot Tories want truck drivers fined for bringing in Islams dirty laundry…even if the driver hasn`t a clue about them.
Yet the Liberal Left want them all let in for nothing…and i`m guessing that the BBCs useful idiots like Geldof and Thompson will actually guarantee that their pet Mozzy won`t rape, sell drugs or run a rai gang for BBC3s fascinations.
Let`s now hope that the liberal gobshites like Alibiah Brown and Harman are forgoing their interview fees and appearance money in the current hysteria…and donating it to buying some tents and fishing rods for our “asylum seekers”-you know-so they can stand up to ISIS and build a country once again(not that they`ve done much these last 1000 years or so though).
Will the BBC confirm that the “Refugees Welcome” mob that they interview are NOT pocketing their grief dinari…but giving it to refund us for Batmanghedghli,MacAlpine…and stop hounding the poor to make the ultimate sacrifice-while they only make a token contribution, and live to submit another day.

The Church doesn`t know does it…when an educated BBC lady thinks that Christianity is NOT one her “3 C`s” that might be brought to bear on the “Syrian QuestionS”…whilst sitting in a former Baptist Church, now renamed as a “Centre”…then the Church is stuffed.
Hey-when Welby is the lead in the Observer-but doesn`t even make his own churches sermons today, in favour of Islam hejira /entryism?….then the Guardian chattering classes in the Churches are stuffed…whereas Islam STILL checklists God once in a while I understand.
The BBC is their new church, the chattering liberal media houris the new priestly class…the Guardian their hymnsheet and Bible digest too.
Boy, we`re in trouble.

My biggest issue is that Christian Europe is expected to take as many as want to come yet rich, safe Muslim Countries like Saudi Arabia are happy to sit on their oil covered hands and do precisely nothing. Surely this makes more sense as they wouldn’t have to “integrate” in Countries of the same faith, or is it that Muslim Countries don’t care?
Where is the international outrage against Saudi?

Why does every single picture that the BBC shows of this crisis feature a child, despite the fact that the overwhelming majority of these (economic) migrants are working age men?
Your lack of impartiality is quite frankly disgusting, but nothing new. All driven by a globalist agenda to replace the native populations of European countries so they are easier to subsume into a supranational EU.

– Accepted economic migrants as refugees
– Told the whole world that Europe will take all migrants so get in a boat now
– Attacked other EU countries for not following her example
and she controls the UK

There is an arrogance about this refusal of food, and the demands made by these migrants. Daniel Greenfield draws attention to this arrogance, whilst pointing out that many of the the Syrian refugees are neither Syrians nor refugees.
‘There are Christian and non-Muslim minorities who are genuine refugees, but the two Muslim sects whose militias are murdering each other are not victims, they are perpetrators. Just because Sunnis are running from a Shiite militia or Shiites from a Sunni militia right now doesn’t make them victims.
The moment that their side’s militia wins and begins slaughtering the other side, the oppressed will become the oppressors. Such shifts have already taken place countless times in this conflict.
The refugees aren’t fleeing a dictator. They’re fleeing each other while carrying the hateful ideologies that caused this bloodshed with them.
We aren’t taking in people fleeing the civil war. We’re taking in their civil war and giving it a good home.’

As Clive Myrie arrives in Munich and Nick Thorpe lands in Budapest, the people of Central and Eastern Europe begin to wonder how they are going to cope with this sudden huge influx of BBC reporters?
At the outset it was just a trickle of BBC journalists but as the days have gone by there seems to be an inexhaustible flow of one after another in this seemingly endless empathy conveyor belt of BBC reporters jostling with their compatriots from Channel 4.
The turning point seemed to the appearance of Huw Edwards in the Hungarian capital on Friday – some saw this as a game changer and the floodgates opened. Some worry about the BBC travel expenses budget but others cry ‘humanity’ must come first and hope that Easyjet and Two Star hotels are the small price we will have to pay.

Most of those countries which were under Ottoman rule or had to spend centuries fighting against them, hate them – and with good reason.
The Ottoman Empire had a system called dervishme, this was the annual collection of Christian boys, a “human tribute” of the “strongest and the most beautiful”. They were enslaved from the dhimmi communities of the Balkans, forcibly converted to Islam and entered the corps of janissaries; removed from their families to provinces remote from their homelands, harshly treated and made into fanatics. The parents of boys would sometimes mutilate or partially cripple their sons, so that they would not be selected.
They were then used as a cruel weapon of suppression against their own people. The system also increased the number of Muslims whilst simultaneously reducing that of Christians and siphoning off their most robust and intelligent youths.

Heutejournal on ZDF are reporting that a BBC bint has been shouting “Welcome to Germany” to the refugees arriving at Munich station. They also reveal that the Guardian has been praising Germany for bringing a new word “Willkommenskultur” into the world’s vocabulary. Great endorsement of lunacy from the usual suspects. Apparently, Germans have discovered a new selflessness and spontaneity. It’s all smiles, smug self-congratulation and “Wir schaffen das!”. I’m not sure what the “das” is precisely, but it looks a lot like cultural suicide. One German politician, Ramelow, even included an inşallah in his “welcome to Germany” speech.

Meanwhile the Express has discovered that government ministers have hardly any asylum seekers living in their constituencies, and that’s how it’s likely to stay. Many of them have none at all.
“The Prime Minister’s leafy Oxfordshire home is one of 16 upmarket constituencies represented by Cabinet ministers that house just 24 refugees between them”
“Five of Mr Cameron’s trusted inner circle do not have a single asylum seeker living in their local area, with just one senior minister representing an area where more than 100 refugees have been given sanctuary. ”
“Figures seen by Express.co.uk reveal that the Prime Minister’s Witney constituency in Oxfordshire has not housed a single asylum seeker since 2008. ”
“Chancellor George Osborne’s constituency of Tatton, in Cheshire, is home to just one refugee whilst Windsor and Maidenhead, represented by Home Secretary Theresa May, houses a mere four”

All migrants in this country, and I don’t care of the circumstances or where they came from, have no history here. They can’t claim to have grandparents who fought in both World Wars, and if we go to War again, how many will sign up to fight for their Country, or even join the Forces ? and if the demographic changes beyond recognition, who will actually care whether anyone bothers to fight for this Country or not , especially if there are alien peoples in Government.

Someone posted yesterday that the picture of the body on the beach was faked, not sure about that, but suggestions now that the body was certainly placed for full effect….

Well there is a thing. I had suggested to my girlfriend that the picture of the boy who had drowned didn’t look right in that the body was the wrong way round. “What do you mean” she asked. I pointed out that if someone had wanted to “plant” a picture in our minds then what better to place a body into water such as photo two (above). But to do that meant getting their feet wet and obviously someone didn’t want to do that as the body was the wrong way round. The head would have come in first as the childs feet would have dragged on the beach not as shown in the photo. Of the two bodies I’ve seen washed up in Cornwall years past, their heads came in first as their feet acted as anchors. I’m not surprised to see someone else suggest the picture was faked for maximum effect, remember the folded cloths in the Palestine photo’s a year or so ago? A trade has been learned.

Agreed. In fact, I posted on another blog a few days ago that the orientation of the body looked wrong. There, I suggested that a body on being ‘rolled’ by the tide, would have been approximately aligned to the tide line, and not perpendicular to it with the head pointing seawards. I suspected another cynically staged photo, like those we are now so used to in Gaza and elsewhere (BBC has never acknowledged this ‘staging’, of course.

Unlikely to hear this on the BBC, but Dartmoor had a frost yesterday morning. This means that Dartmoor has had a “frost day” every month this year. Something of a record, as my available records point out that it was 86 years since the last time this happened. I think it is a banker to state that frosts will occur in Oct, Nov, Dec somewhere in G,B. which in itself should produce further records. I wonder what Mr Harrabin, of the BBC would have to say on this? I’m also being told by my internet friends in Canada, that snows have arrived nearly two months early for them. And on a footnote, and Indian Summer only takes place in November and has to last for approx’ ten days. (November 10/11th – 20th/21st) and is a warm period between two cold periods. What we are getting for a few days this week is not an Indian Summer but a brief ridge/finger of warmish air.

The above video links are so depressing. The poor Greek Islanders and the last one (Rotheram),particularly as it is likely that everyone of those creatures causing public disorder will be UK passport holders. It also shows how weak the police are – totally emaciated with about 10 officers trying to contain the disorder, all of them knowing that if they take any action the legal system will not support the police officers involved.
It is truly depressing, I am sick to the back teeth of seeing/hearing/reading about asian/brown skinned/muslim young single males involved in stabbing, rapes, violence all whilst the (in my view) the treasonous and subversive bbbc just constantly pump out pro islamic, pro eu propaganda (Sky is no better).
