“Suella Braverman to sign revised deal with France on Channel migrants”
The French don’t want them. They have been shipping them over. Will they take back all the 40,000 they have already dumped upon us?
We are governed by a bunch of clowns.
One’s thing for sure. This Government has adopted an unwritten policy of paying no heed whatever to either the ‘voters’ wishes or anything to their benefit. Seems, ‘We need you stupid people once every five years to suit our purposes of election/re-election. Then you can go back to grazing/chewing the cud or whatever you animals do. By-the-way, as so much time and money is wasted on the five year ritual, take note we aim, in the not-too-distant future to abandon the pretence of elections.’
“Reduce immigration annually to the, ‘tens of thousand'”
We arrange again with France, that they will reduce 80% of crossings. A similar ring to it?

“Pull Factor” the way UK government gives free stuff to illegals
feeds the traffickers business model.
The illegals are at best queue jumpers stealing the position of refugees that do it the legal way.
They cost the UK tax payers money, we should bill them even if there is no prospect of getting that money back
Each person’s “asylum card” should have a monthly tally
“This month you cost UK taxpayers £X and this has been added to your tally that an honourable person would pay back”
It’s encouraging to see that green crap / fact checkers are getting younger – the BBC publicist one must be worried about being undermined … however the likes of the loon ‘Greta ‘ will become even more of a loon -for instance -saying that he need to go back to the time before was invented – that’s when it all went wrong …

16 % ofthe public say that they would vote for a Farage led party. With FPTP this % will lead to few seats. It needs to approach 30% before it begins to win the number of seats commensurate with its size. Nigel has been here before.
Of course if it looks like such a party is likely to win more than a handful of seats it will be attacked from all sides of politics and the MSM as racist etc etc. unless and until the British people refuse to accept the invasion and are prepared to go out on the streets to make their feelings known , the political establishment will ignore them and at best throw them a sop or two. Only by frightening the establishment can the public force through the changes that they want to see.
In the UK the ‘establishment’ mainly comprises top civil servants who are owned by, owe their allegiances to and take their orders from alien powers. They protect themselves and their own through networks of bribery and fear (threats of losing pensions etc,).
MPs who collude most with the ‘establishment’ are those who receive the most protection, Starmer being the prime example (e.g. see Nick Brown story above).
“I still get frightened when someone comes and knocks on the door,” said Sharon, who has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as a result of what happened.
Not just any police ” Nottinghamshire Police”
The same police force that seem to act illegally invading Alex Belfield’s home
And that he said he saw racially abusing a prisoner in custody.
And then the establishment seemed to act very harshly in his case compared to what would have happened had he been a lefty.
In this new story Notts police acted like thugs
But it seems that the woman and her family were not blameless.
She should have paid the debt before it got to the bailiff
And then she should have just let the bailiffs in
not let her nephews play games by taking things from the Bailiff’s car.
Furthermore the BBC news article is the first time I have seen them use F-words in full.
There is no need for that they could have asterisked it.

It dwarfs London’s Garden of Peace which opened in 2002 with 10,000 plots
By STEWART CARR FOR MAILONLINE
PUBLISHED: 22:59, 23 November 2021 | UPDATED: 23:00, 23 November 2021
This new site dwarfs the current largest Muslim cemetery, The Garden of Peace, which opened in East London in 2002 and holds 10,000 plots, all of which are now occupied.
‘People use the land for dog walking and there is also wildlife living on the green land which we want to protect.’
The burial plots would be set oriented ‘towards Qibla’ – Mecca as is Islamic tradition.
All proceeds from the business will be utilised to provide ongoing funeral services within the Muslim Community and none of the directors or the volunteers will benefit financially from the service it offered.
Saudi Arabia allows Catholics and Christians of other denominations to enter the country as foreign workers for temporary work, but does not allow them to practise their faith openly. As a result, Catholics and other Christians generally only worship in secret within private homes.
I always enjoy my very poignant visit to The Cenotaph on Remembrance Day…and yesterday was no exception. Just a couple of observations…
I know it’s a sign of old age when you start noticing how young the police are looking, but yesterday I noticed something else. They’re definitely getting shorter and fatter.
I’m not a giant, but some of these coppers were tiddlers and hardly athletic. One affable little chap I spoke to was as round as he was tall and he barely reached my elbow. For the life of me I can’t imagine him chasing a criminal. Blimey, he was out of breath just strolling up the Mall.
It isn’t just our police that are looking suspiciously juvenile. I caught a glimpse of young Rishi laying his wreath and to me he looked more like a school prefect on open day than the political leader of a country.
There was a rather telling little incident during the two minute silence. As we were standing observing this 100 year tradition, a young black chap came bustling through. Idiot that I am, I thought for a moment that he must be a late attendee. Twit! It became clear that I was mistaken. He had no interest in this most moving of occasions and was just trying to get to the other end of Whitehall. How is it feasible that someone can be that thick? And how is it that so few members of the “BAME” community take the trouble to turn up? Brixton is a bus ride away; a couple of stops on the tube, but there are fewer than a handful. I only have to travel in from Surrey, but people come from the four corners of the kingdom.
When I first used to come here, all those years ago, there were still veterans from The Great War marching. Later I’d see them outside the pubs enjoying a pint and a fag and swapping stories with old comrades. Now there aren’t even all that many from WW2.
The first mosque to be built in the Western Isles is proving to be a huge hit with tourists. The Stornoway temple opened its doors in May to provide a place of worship for the area’s 80-strong Muslim community.30 Sept 2018
Admitting the truth, lobster traps and like the Mary Celeste on Friday afternoon edition
BBC press pickers like the giveaway advertising Metro for their headline top spot: We’ll all pay more tax Hunt’s budget warning as it’s revealed Trussonomics has cost us £30bn – that’s as maybe. No mention of course of Rishi’s far more significant Lockdownonomics and that colossal cost to the tax payer.
How big is that fiscal hole? £30bn?
The left-leaning ‘i’ admits: Thursday’s crunch Autumn Statement, seeks to plug £60bn black hole…

A popular church hymn in times past was: Tell me the old, old story – so it is today with the Daily Mirror: Last chance to save our NHS
One ponders one’s saving options as: COP talks last chance saloon!… COP 26 last year was flagged as ‘the last chance to make a difference.’ I suppose COP 27 is the last chance saloon! – this is local Cllr Martin Heath, Environmental researcher (no less), opining in the Mid-Devon Advertiser – since we apparently go to advertising sheets for news – he reckons we should write to our MPs and badger them to invest more in green energy supplies.
One would tend to differ with our enviromentally curious friend from Dawlish Town Council and taking the ailing NHS as our example note that the more taxpayer cash ‘invested‘ the bigger and ever more urgent the crisis appears.
The Daily Mail takes a different attitude toward our nationalised hospitals – rather than the lovey-dovey locus of heroes and angels they are in fact a place to which we should be instinctually allergic: A&E chief: hospitals harm the elderly ‘They’re like lobster traps… easy to get in to but hard to get out of. I’m desperate to keep my parents out’ – one would tend to extend that wish to all of one’s family and friends, no?
The Guardian increasingly gains praise these days from Mr AsISeeIt for their rather reasonable headlines: The hospitals where a third of patients can’t go home – not for the Guardianistas the rose-tinted soft-focus panacea of an imagined NHS utopia – for today in their headline at least.
‘Mary Celeste’ wards. NHS staffing levels should be higher at weekends to help cut waiting times, a top doctor has said, with many hospitals “like the Mary Celeste” on Friday afternoons (Times) – no further comment necessary, draw your own conclusions there.
Further kudos is due for the Guardian’s apparent antipathy toward taxation in a headline – which the left and particularly that public sector managerial left, forming a large part of the Gruan target demographic, would normally as a rule tend to view as manna from heaven: Everyone will pay more tax, say Sunak and Hunt – we assume the kicker will be some expose of tax loop holes for the aforesaid Tories and their pals.
When a politician is caught admitting the truth it can come over as somewhat disconcerting: “Taxes are going up, and that’s a difficult thing for me to do because I came into politics to do the opposite” – Jeremy Hunt there as quoted in the Telegraph. I’m still not sure I believe him. The more money raised and spent by the State, the more power and influence these people gain. The more of other peoples’ cash splashed the more popular they become with the interest groups who benefit.
So where’s all the money going? Aside from the interest the government are having to pay on their previous brilliant ‘investments‘ with cash borrowed on our behalf?

And finally, next time a third (or is it fourth?) wave feminist moans about the patriarchy… perhaps refer them to the formerly patriotic, formerly patriarchal Times: Why affairs are better for women than for men – call me old fashioned but I thought it still took two to tango?

2012 … “Two and a half years ago, the coalition government was formed, and we made a clear promise to the British public. After thirteen years of uncontrolled mass immigration, this government would reduce and control immigration.” – Theresa May 2012
2015 … “Because when immigration is too high (no figure given), when the pace of change is too fast, it’s impossible to build a cohesive society.” – Theresa May 2015
2018 … “Over the years, overall, immigration has been good for the UK. It has brought people with different backgrounds, different outlooks here to the UK,” – Theresa May 2018
And in those thirteen years before, we had blair and brown trashing the British economy, and letting in as many international spongers and layabouts as they could, because they’d all vote socialist.

They said, “Mr Alphege, we would like some more, and if you don’t give us more, we are going to hold on to you as a hostage.” And Alphege replied: “I will not give you more; I will not put higher taxes on my people; I will not have them suffer this imposition.” So they threw ox bones at Alphege until he died. I hope that people will not find it necessary to throw ox bones at me, but as another representative from North East Somerset, I will stand constantly for low taxation.” – Jacob Rees-Mogg /North East Somerset / Con {youtube}

France is a failed state – time for UK to invade …
Today the BBC journalists Michael Keohan and Colin Campbell released a shocking report on the channel crossings. It showed people smugglers selling their wares brazenly in the migrant camps and many children living in unsafe and dangerous conditions, as well as—this is breathtaking—a free French public bus service that migrants can use to travel directly from the camps to the Dunkirk departure beaches. Will my right hon. Friend allow a statement on the issue of tackling the small boat crossings and the Government’s response in their work with France?

Two migrant charity/NGO/consultancy types on who reassured us that despite the numbers, both France and Germany are taking more both in totals and as % of the population. It’s a good illustration of taking data in isolation; no need to look at the problems both those countries have — just find someone whose open door policies are even more insane than yours and set that as the benchmark.

The corporation has spent the last few months throwing money into its North America operation, hiring a multitude of new staff as it faces cuts in the UK.
Labelling the move a “major growth opportunity”, The BBC has doubled the amount of journalists working for the broadcaster in North America, as well as bringing in two new editorial executives.
They are hoping their impartial [sic] news content will attract audiences in the states, where they currently have a reach of 50million a week.
Naja Nielsen, the digital director of BBC News, said it showed the outlet was “the most important source of trustworthy information”, speaking to Press Gazzette.
“I’m from Denmark, and in my own country, we all grew up with this history lesson where we hear BBC London telling us about the liberation of Denmark after the Second World War.
“And that’s kind of the role that BBC News and the BBC has always played. And we see that in Ukraine and Russia, Afghanistan, Iran, you know – we are the most important source of trustworthy [sic] information.”
… Press Gazette asked Nielsen what it would be like broadcasting to an audience who don’t have a personal stake in the BBC through the licence fee.
“There is no place where we have a more privileged [position], but also bigger responsibility, than in Britain. Because it’s stated in the charter: we’re here to inform everyone.
“And actually I think the debate and also sometimes the criticism that we’ve received, for me, is proof that we are a part of this society and that we’re really important to people.
“Our thing for all of us working here – we know the public are our owners and we are working for the public and they are completely welcome to have any opinion about what we do.”
Yes Naja, we do have an opinion, which is why tvl payers are leaving in droves, but the ‘government’ will not listen to us.

Written earlier – 16% people said they would vote for Farage led party. Contributor said that this not enough – I disagree. With a bit of momentum and those who are made to feel ‘shamed’ by media and establishment but will vote Farage without admitting so will bring this to 19-20%. With an all turnout of voters of 80% then we have 25% and this means the Farage party is in the game.
Mouse – may be true – but the concerted efforts by the BBC and the vote counters and the swamp – red ‘ blue labour would ensure the fix – even the polls would be fixed …
…. They’ve seen what can be done in the US – the next time an even bigger effort will be applied to corrupt the process ….
If 16% did vote for a Farage Party (Reform?) then perhaps that would be a base vote which could be built on if people start to think of them as a real Party instead of a protest vote.
If people think that Reform has a chance they just might vote for them.
I vote UKIP (the only other choice I get in Sunderland) even though I know they don’t really have any chance.
However, Fed’s right.
The msm will all try to destroy them and the votes will be fiddled as we’ve seen in some places already (Tower Hamlets and Thanet) plus the usual postal fixes.
The thing is, if we don’t get a Party in that actually represents the Majority as opposed to the 3 x left wing ones then it would surely lead to serious trouble.
They (Parliament) are going against the majority on just about everything, net zero, Channel crossers, woke, soft law and order (on lefties like just stop oil) diversity managers and so on, we all know what they’re like.
It’s us against them. They are not our friends.
Someone wrote earlier that they let all the channel crossers in during covid lockdown. The reason they didn’t stop them was because if they did stop them it would mean they could stop them if they wanted to.
They don’t want to stop them.

“Nigel Farage-led party could attract more than a quarter* of voters, poll reveals”
More than a quarter* of British voters would consider voting for a **new** party led by Nigel Farage.
A new poll shows that 12 per cent of the public would be very interested in backing a new venture if it were launched next year, while 16 per cent would be quite interested https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/11/12/nigel-farage-led-party-would-attract-quarter-voters-poll-reveals/
by “More than a quarter” I take it they mean 28%
ie 12% very interested + the 16% quite interested

Looks like Britain isn’t the only country with economic woes. Seems to be the case that Nigeria is also going to have an Autumn Statement from their chancellor:
BBC loves its foreigner with a British passport in a foreign jail campaign – once it was an Iranian in an Iranian jail – now it’s an Egyptian in an Egyptian jail . This one is seeming continuing to live despite not taking food or water . Now I thought – according to St Bear of Grills – that you can only survive for 3 days without water but something like 3 years without food – if you are the average NHS nurse ….
But maybe Egyptian prisoners do not always tell the truth .._ I reckon the BBC will have a field day with some scouse angel banged up in a Qatar jail next week after expressing his culture of nicking anything from anyone ….

I asked him, “When will you release those jailed climate activists your Govt. arrested for protesting to stop new oil & gas license across UK?”
He replied, “No idea” & run away!
Doh, the answer is nothing to do with whether a British citizen is asking or not
cos the government are NOT holding the activists. The courts are holding them
They’ll stay in Prison until their court date, because they are on remand as they’ll likely reoffend.
Have you got the video of you confronting the Chinese delegation?

The the presenter SamPeach starts making his questions about fossil fuels “There seems to be more of a drive to increase extraction here in the UK
methods like fracking,
how do you think that affects the mine’s chances ?
Next question “Look there’ll be of people that point out this mine is going to damage the environment by *increasing* fossil fuel usage
Do you think it would be better to invest the money in renewable energy perhaps”
Miner replies “Wind solar power we can’t get our energy from that
we need this mine to make steel to make wind turbine towers”
FFS don’t mix up this mine with fossil fuels
Fossil fuels are APPLES
and coking coal is MARMALADE
The mine isn’t going to INCREASE fossil fuel use, it’s just an alternative source of coal as an INGREDIENT in steelmaking
Without it the same steel will be made with coal from elsewhere
The mine is not using taxpayers money.
If the private investors took their money and invested their money in renewables , it will not change the scenario about how much CO2 world steel emits.
Just the same as banning marmalade doesn’t affect the amount of apples sold.
I couldn’t bear to listen to the next bit , with an anti-mine activist.

Taffman,
One’s thing for sure. This Government has adopted an unwritten policy of paying no heed whatever to either the ‘voters’ wishes or anything to their benefit. Seems, ‘We need you stupid people once every five years to suit our purposes of election/re-election. Then you can go back to grazing/chewing the cud or whatever you animals do. By-the-way, as so much time and money is wasted on the five year ritual, take note we aim, in the not-too-distant future to abandon the pretence of elections.’

We arrange again with France, that they will reduce 80% of crossings. A similar ring to it?

Of course if it looks like such a party is likely to win more than a handful of seats it will be attacked from all sides of politics and the MSM as racist etc etc. unless and until the British people refuse to accept the invasion and are prepared to go out on the streets to make their feelings known , the political establishment will ignore them and at best throw them a sop or two.

“frightening the establishment”
In the UK the ‘establishment’ mainly comprises top civil servants who are owned by, owe their allegiances to and take their orders from alien powers. They protect themselves and their own through networks of bribery and fear (threats of losing pensions etc,).
MPs who collude most with the ‘establishment’ are those who receive the most protection, Starmer being the prime example (e.g. see Nick Brown story above).

Zuckerberg tells Rogan FBI warning prompted Biden laptop story censorship

26 August

Mark Zuckerberg says Facebook restricting a story about Joe Biden’s son during the 2020 election was based on FBI misinformation warnings.
The New York Post alleged leaked emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop showed the then vice-president was helping his son’s business dealings in Ukraine.
Facebook and Twitter restricted sharing of the article, before reversing course amid allegations of censorship.
Zuckerberg said that getting the decision wrong “sucks”.

I always enjoy my very poignant visit to The Cenotaph on Remembrance Day…and yesterday was no exception. Just a couple of observations…
I know it’s a sign of old age when you start noticing how young the police are looking, but yesterday I noticed something else. They’re definitely getting shorter and fatter.
I’m not a giant, but some of these coppers were tiddlers and hardly athletic. One affable little chap I spoke to was as round as he was tall and he barely reached my elbow. For the life of me I can’t imagine him chasing a criminal. Blimey, he was out of breath just strolling up the Mall.
It isn’t just our police that are looking suspiciously juvenile. I caught a glimpse of young Rishi laying his wreath and to me he looked more like a school prefect on open day than the political leader of a country.
There was a rather telling little incident during the two minute silence. As we were standing observing this 100 year tradition, a young black chap came bustling through. Idiot that I am, I thought for a moment that he must be a late attendee. Twit! It became clear that I was mistaken. He had no interest in this most moving of occasions and was just trying to get to the other end of Whitehall. How is it feasible that someone can be that thick? And how is it that so few members of the “BAME” community take the trouble to turn up? Brixton is a bus ride away; a couple of stops on the tube, but there are fewer than a handful. I only have to travel in from Surrey, but people come from the four corners of the kingdom.
When I first used to come here, all those years ago, there were still veterans from The Great War marching. Later I’d see them outside the pubs enjoying a pint and a fag and swapping stories with old comrades. Now there aren’t even all that many from WW2.
Times winged chariot. Dust to dust.
And on that cheerful note…

Admitting the truth, lobster traps and like the Mary Celeste on Friday afternoon edition
BBC press pickers like the giveaway advertising Metro for their headline top spot: We’ll all pay more tax Hunt’s budget warning as it’s revealed Trussonomics has cost us £30bn – that’s as maybe. No mention of course of Rishi’s far more significant Lockdownonomics and that colossal cost to the tax payer.
How big is that fiscal hole? £30bn?
The left-leaning ‘i’ admits: Thursday’s crunch Autumn Statement, seeks to plug £60bn black hole…

A popular church hymn in times past was: Tell me the old, old story – so it is today with the Daily Mirror: Last chance to save our NHS
One ponders one’s saving options as: COP talks last chance saloon!… COP 26 last year was flagged as ‘the last chance to make a difference.’ I suppose COP 27 is the last chance saloon! – this is local Cllr Martin Heath, Environmental researcher (no less), opining in the Mid-Devon Advertiser – since we apparently go to advertising sheets for news – he reckons we should write to our MPs and badger them to invest more in green energy supplies.
One would tend to differ with our enviromentally curious friend from Dawlish Town Council and taking the ailing NHS as our example note that the more taxpayer cash ‘invested‘ the bigger and ever more urgent the crisis appears.
The Daily Mail takes a different attitude toward our nationalised hospitals – rather than the lovey-dovey locus of heroes and angels they are in fact a place to which we should be instinctually allergic: A&E chief: hospitals harm the elderly ‘They’re like lobster traps… easy to get in to but hard to get out of. I’m desperate to keep my parents out’ – one would tend to extend that wish to all of one’s family and friends, no?
The Guardian increasingly gains praise these days from Mr AsISeeIt for their rather reasonable headlines: The hospitals where a third of patients can’t go home – not for the Guardianistas the rose-tinted soft-focus panacea of an imagined NHS utopia – for today in their headline at least.
‘Mary Celeste’ wards. NHS staffing levels should be higher at weekends to help cut waiting times, a top doctor has said, with many hospitals “like the Mary Celeste” on Friday afternoons (Times) – no further comment necessary, draw your own conclusions there.
Further kudos is due for the Guardian’s apparent antipathy toward taxation in a headline – which the left and particularly that public sector managerial left, forming a large part of the Gruan target demographic, would normally as a rule tend to view as manna from heaven: Everyone will pay more tax, say Sunak and Hunt – we assume the kicker will be some expose of tax loop holes for the aforesaid Tories and their pals.
When a politician is caught admitting the truth it can come over as somewhat disconcerting: “Taxes are going up, and that’s a difficult thing for me to do because I came into politics to do the opposite” – Jeremy Hunt there as quoted in the Telegraph. I’m still not sure I believe him. The more money raised and spent by the State, the more power and influence these people gain. The more of other peoples’ cash splashed the more popular they become with the interest groups who benefit.
So where’s all the money going? Aside from the interest the government are having to pay on their previous brilliant ‘investments‘ with cash borrowed on our behalf?

Naga Munchetty on R5:
Two migrant charity/NGO/consultancy types on who reassured us that despite the numbers, both France and Germany are taking more both in totals and as % of the population. It’s a good illustration of taking data in isolation; no need to look at the problems both those countries have — just find someone whose open door policies are even more insane than yours and set that as the benchmark. Sadly as we know on this site, such tactics work because they come from ‘authoritative’ sources. Thus the Mariannas of the world are emboldened to spread the open society gospel, comfortable they’ve got a fact in the bag.
Naga nods along in agreement at this bit of cherry picking and says “it’s all about context”. Maybe it was comedy hour and I just didn’t realise.

That makes sense. Liverpool is one of the last English cities where the cocaine trade is largely under the control of local gangsters, whereas in the rest of the country it is controlled by Albanians. Presumably someone made a deal with the Albanian Mafia to allow them to bring in extra resources via the Channel 🙂

Can’t say I care a jot about him or any other BBC staff.
Only mildly interesting thing is did he smoke, including cannabis?

The corporation has spent the last few months throwing money into its North America operation, hiring a multitude of new staff as it faces cuts in the UK.
Labelling the move a “major growth opportunity”, The BBC has doubled the amount of journalists working for the broadcaster in North America, as well as bringing in two new editorial executives.
They are hoping their impartial [sic] news content will attract audiences in the states, where they currently have a reach of 50million a week.
Naja Nielsen, the digital director of BBC News, said it showed the outlet was “the most important source of trustworthy information”, speaking to Press Gazzette.
https://pressgazette.co.uk/bbc-news-us-culture-wars/
The deluded Naja Nielsen says:
“I’m from Denmark, and in my own country, we all grew up with this history lesson where we hear BBC London telling us about the liberation of Denmark after the Second World War.
“And that’s kind of the role that BBC News and the BBC has always played. And we see that in Ukraine and Russia, Afghanistan, Iran, you know – we are the most important source of trustworthy [sic] information.”
…
Press Gazette asked Nielsen what it would be like broadcasting to an audience who don’t have a personal stake in the BBC through the licence fee.
“There is no place where we have a more privileged [position], but also bigger responsibility, than in Britain. Because it’s stated in the charter: we’re here to inform everyone.
“And actually I think the debate and also sometimes the criticism that we’ve received, for me, is proof that we are a part of this society and that we’re really important to people.
“Our thing for all of us working here – we know the public are our owners and we are working for the public and they are completely welcome to have any opinion about what we do.”
Yes Naja, we do have an opinion, which is why tvl payers are leaving in droves, but the ‘government’ will not listen to us.

In a news summary about the US midterms we said the Republicans are on track to take the House of Representatives ‘in a major blow to President Putin’.

Written earlier – 16% people said they would vote for Farage led party. Contributor said that this not enough – I disagree. With a bit of momentum and those who are made to feel ‘shamed’ by media and establishment but will vote Farage without admitting so will bring this to 19-20%. With an all turnout of voters of 80% then we have 25% and this means the Farage party is in the game.

If 16% did vote for a Farage Party (Reform?) then perhaps that would be a base vote which could be built on if people start to think of them as a real Party instead of a protest vote.
If people think that Reform has a chance they just might vote for them.
I vote UKIP (the only other choice I get in Sunderland) even though I know they don’t really have any chance.
However, Fed’s right.
The msm will all try to destroy them and the votes will be fiddled as we’ve seen in some places already (Tower Hamlets and Thanet) plus the usual postal fixes.
The thing is, if we don’t get a Party in that actually represents the Majority as opposed to the 3 x left wing ones then it would surely lead to serious trouble.
They (Parliament) are going against the majority on just about everything, net zero, Channel crossers, woke, soft law and order (on lefties like just stop oil) diversity managers and so on, we all know what they’re like.
It’s us against them. They are not our friends.
Someone wrote earlier that they let all the channel crossers in during covid lockdown. The reason they didn’t stop them was because if they did stop them it would mean they could stop them if they wanted to.
They don’t want to stop them.

“Nigel Farage-led party could attract more than a quarter* of voters, poll reveals”
More than a quarter* of British voters would consider voting for a **new** party led by Nigel Farage.
A new poll shows that 12 per cent of the public would be very interested in backing a new venture if it were launched next year, while 16 per cent would be quite interested
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/11/12/nigel-farage-led-party-would-attract-quarter-voters-poll-reveals/
by “More than a quarter” I take it they mean 28%
ie 12% very interested + the 16% quite interested

BBC loves its foreigner with a British passport in a foreign jail campaign – once it was an Iranian in an Iranian jail – now it’s an Egyptian in an Egyptian jail . This one is seeming continuing to live despite not taking food or water . Now I thought – according to St Bear of Grills – that you can only survive for 3 days without water but something like 3 years without food – if you are the average NHS nurse ….
But maybe Egyptian prisoners do not always tell the truth .._ I reckon the BBC will have a field day with some scouse angel banged up in a Qatar jail next week after expressing his culture of nicking anything from anyone ….

The 11am Radio4 documentary talked to an unemployed miner about the planned Cumbria coking coal mine
The the presenter SamPeach starts making his questions about fossil fuels
“There seems to be more of a drive to increase extraction here in the UK
methods like fracking,
how do you think that affects the mine’s chances ?
Next question “Look there’ll be of people that point out this mine is going to damage the environment by *increasing* fossil fuel usage
Do you think it would be better to invest the money in renewable energy perhaps”
Miner replies “Wind solar power we can’t get our energy from that
we need this mine to make steel to make wind turbine towers”
FFS don’t mix up this mine with fossil fuels
Fossil fuels are APPLES
and coking coal is MARMALADE
The mine isn’t going to INCREASE fossil fuel use, it’s just an alternative source of coal as an INGREDIENT in steelmaking
Without it the same steel will be made with coal from elsewhere
The mine is not using taxpayers money.
If the private investors took their money and invested their money in renewables , it will not change the scenario about how much CO2 world steel emits.
Just the same as banning marmalade doesn’t affect the amount of apples sold.
I couldn’t bear to listen to the next bit , with an anti-mine activist.

The former Tory leader was allegedly attacked while with his wife in Manchester
