Our society is no longer functioning on the basis of right and wrong. The civil service, the government, the police and the National Broadcaster have now been infested by the Left and they are attempting to force their ideology on everyone else.
The are exactly the same as the Nazis. But modern times push them to use modern methods. They would put the Right into concentration camps if they could. They hate them with that nasty kind of spite only the Left posses.
it gets worse … “In the Spending Review, the Government announced that the Probation Service will receive up to £700 million, an almost 45% increase in funding. This new funding will mean tens of thousands more offenders can be tagged and monitored in the community.”

No, prisoners cannot use modern GPS tags to evade surveillance, as the advanced technology provides real-time tracking, exclusion zones, and immediate alerts for violations. While there have been recent issues with prisoners being released without tags due to a backlog and staff shortages in the UK, these are temporary operational problems, not an inherent flaw in the GPS tagging system itself. When fitted, GPS tags make it impossible for offenders to enter restricted areas without triggering an immediate alarm to the monitoring center.

Police launch probe into petrol bomb attack on man ‘putting up flags’ in Stevenage
https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/stevenage-petrol-bomb-attack-flags-b1244352.html
Man puts up St George flags in act of patriotism against the Leftist activists.
The Leftist activists try to burn him alive with a petrol bomb.
Just about sums up the difference between the two sides perfectly.
And the BBC have not even reported it. Because they are the worst Leftists activists of all. They just hide it behind subtle, clever words checked by lawyers and use their massive influence to gently push it into the minds of the gullible masses. But make no mistake, they are as guilty of deliberately driving a wedge through our society as anybody.

Prisons get ‘Minority Report’ AI profiling to avert violence
As assaults on prison officers soar, they will be given tools to predict who is likely to attack and to scan confiscated phones for intelligence … any update on how many far right people found?
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/ai-to-stop-prison-violence-before-it-happens
“Another AI tool will be able to digitally scan the contents of mobile phones seized from prisoners to rapidly flag messages that could provide intelligence on potential crimes being committed behind bars, such as secret code words.
This will allow staff to discover potential threats of violence to other inmates or prison officers as well as plans to escape and smuggle in weapons or contraband. “
I think the UK needs to focus and stop display flags and start banging pots to save the NHS again – it did not work last time comrades but I think if we bang harder, longer, faster we can in fact exorcise the devil from the NHS and make it free of debt and pain.

WHAT ABOUT BBC’s “Three Girls” ** ignore the other 1397 girls
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b08rgd5n/three-girls
I’m disappointed. I travelled north today, up the A1 from London. In the south virtually every bridge had at least one flag, either the English flag or the Union Jack (I know, I know some prefer the Union flag but it was the Union Jack when I was little, and so it remains). Once I reached Newark, the flags disappeared with only the rare one sighted. I thought northerners were better than that.
Rainbow flags? African flags? Palestine flags? ISIS flags? White flags?
Five journalists among 20 killed in Israeli strike on hospital, Gaza officials say
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn725ny0ryjt
I see the reporters are mostly ‘Al Jazeera’ and ‘Middle East Eye’ who hate the Jews nearly as much as Hamas.
When I read these reports – knowing with 100% certainty that the IDF hit those positions because they identified Hamas in the vicinity – I remember how those evil b@stards sliced the hamstrings of their hostages and crippled them so they could not run away. A fact the BBC chose not to tell us.
Keep going IDF. Kill every last one of them. I have no words to describe the disgust I feel at those who support them.
October 7 Crimes Against Humanity, War Crimes by Hamas-led Groups
https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/07/17/october-7-crimes-against-humanity-war-crimes-hamas-led-groups
Governments with influence over the Palestinian armed groups should press for the urgent release of all civilian hostages.
The armed groups committed numerous violations of the laws of war that amount to war crimes, including attacks targeting civilians and civilian objects; willful killing of people in custody; cruel and other inhumane treatment; crimes involving sexual and gender-based violence; hostage-taking; mutilation and despoiling bodies; use of human shields; and pillage and looting.
Hamas authorities responded to questions from Human Rights Watch, stating that its forces were instructed not to target civilians and to abide by international human rights and humanitarian law. In many cases, Human Rights Watch investigations found evidence to the contrary.

Teenage girl ‘stabbed to death by asylum seeker’ as she walked home in Amsterdam

Amsterdam’s municipal government is headed by Mayor Femke Halsema, who was appointed in 2018. The city’s government also consists of the City Council, which has 45 members elected every four years, and a College of Aldermen, which includes eight aldermen also elected by the council. The city’s administration is structured under the Dutch Municipalities Act.
Femke Halsema (pronounced [ˈfɛmkə ˈɦɑlsəmaː] ⓘ; born 25 April 1966) is a Dutch politician and filmmaker serving as Mayor of Amsterdam since 2018. She is the first woman to hold the position on a non-interim basis. She previously was a member of the House of Representatives for the leftist green party, GroenLinks from 1998 to 2011, and served as the party’s parliamentary leader from 2002 to 2010.

Notting Hill Carnival: Met Police arrest 423 revellers as two stabbed during festivities

Twerking without a license?
‘Assistant Commissioner Matt Ward, the policing commander for Notting Hill Carnival this year, said: “This year we have proactively targeted those who have attempted to come to Carnival to cause harm to others.’
An astounding statement. It’s simply incredible that the UK are holding such a magnificent event (according to the BBC anyway) yet police have to try to stop those coming with deliberate intent to harm others. And I am certain that the vast majority – if not all – of those doing that are black.
It’s the stuff of third world shitholes. And nobody in the media – including the National broadcaster – think that is in any way newsworthy. It’s a sign of how f*cked the Left are making our country. Our news is pure ideology-driven propaganda and rhetoric now. The Orwellian dystopian society is upon us. He just didn’t quite get it right.

“A Senator from Mexico went on Fox News and exposed it all
– The President of Mexico works for the Cartels
– She was funded by money from the cartels
– It’s not just the President, there are an entire group of Mexico politicians labeled the “narco politicians”
– Mexico is a “Narco state”
– Mexicans are afraid of the alliance between the Mexican government and the cartels
– The Morena (political party) is financed by the cartels, that’s how they get elected
– Once they get elected the deal is for the Mexican government to then protect the cartels
– The President of Mexico Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo doesn’t want this information getting out
– Mexicans and the Politicians who are no paid off by the cartels want Donald Trump to help with the cartels
The Mexico Senator exposing all this says she is now being threatened with prison for speaking out “The President has threatened me to proceed against me with criminal prosecution to get me out of the Senate and get me in jail just because I told you in this space in Fox News””

£1.5 bn? Why not keep it and turn it into a £10.5 bn company?
How often does this happen? Great technology sold out or given away. No real entrepreneurs. Perhaps for good reason. The fear of being castigated for becoming rich. The tax the government will take, having contributed nothing. The lack of conviction and staying power.
There is a reason the US have the ‘big7’ or however many it is. And we have none.
Still, at least we can house asylum seekers in posh hotels, so we must be morally superior, right?

No cheap Russian gas and Germany saw two years with over two million immigrants: in 2015 and 2022, with the 2015 influx being driven by a large influx of refugees from war-torn regions, and the 2022 increase being significantly influenced by the large number of people fleeing the war in Ukraine.

MERZ: GERMAN WELFARE STATE “CAN NO LONGER BE FINANCED”
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz just fired a shot at his own coalition, declaring the welfare system unsustainable “with what we produce in the economy.”
In short: pensions, healthcare, unemployment benefits – all too expensive. Cuts are coming.
Merz insists: no tax hikes on medium-sized companies under his watch.
But that puts him on a collision course with the SPD, which is already bleeding votes and frames itself as the defender of the welfare state.
The SPD youth wing is blunt: if reform = slashing benefits, “the SPD cannot give an inch.”
Merz’s pivot looks less like coalition consensus, more like a pitch to CDU’s base… and to voters drifting toward the conservative AfD. (GER’s 2nd in polling)

Employers prefer Indians, they don’t have to pay national insurance on them.
Can we employ 650 MPS from india? Oh wait!
“Yes, employers can benefit from a National Insurance Contributions (NICs) exemption for Indian workers temporarily seconded to the UK under a recent UK-India Double Contributions Convention (DCC), which exempts qualifying individuals and their employers from paying UK NICs for up to three years. This provision, part of a new trade agreement, aims to prevent double taxation and reduce costs, but it has faced criticism for potentially undercutting UK workers”

Bingham’s failed revolution
Why the supposed “rule of law” now protects the offender rather than the law-abiding citizen
https://thecritic.co.uk/issues/march-2025/binghams-failed-revolution/
To answer Bingham’s rhetoric with my own: it is politics and the constitution, not law, which guards the “sacred flame” of a free society. Judges are good for judging and lawyers for lawyering, nothing more. If they want to rule us via the “rule of law”, they should stand for election. They might of course win, like Starmer or, indirectly, Hermer. In which case (as we are abundantly discovering) God help us!

I’m guessing that, come 2029, they’ll need every single one of them.
Release from prison – more votes
Reduce voting age to 16 – more votes
Allow more illegal migrants – more votes
Fly them in from Palestine for nhs and university – more votes
Offer more benefits – more votes
Offer more money after strikes – more votes
It’s already going on and has been for years….or rather…a very one-sided civil war in which the British people have been extremely tolerant and quiet as people from one community terrorises us and another tries to ‘get rid of Whiteness’ and destroys our history, culture, society and identity….all with the aid of those supposedly charged with protecting us.
‘Politicians don’t know what to do’….they do what they did with Rochdale etc…sit back and watch and do nothing for fear of making the ‘community’ angry….and keep on importing people of that ideology by the thousand…..when even lefty Canada banned single muslim males from coming to the country and claiming asylum….

Usually, authorities are not allowed to sell off assets in order to fund day-to-day services such as bin collections or social care. But increasing numbers of councils in financial trouble are now being given powers to do so by the government.”

Rich economies will need foreign workers to fuel growth, policymakers warn… Central bankers say low birth rates in world’s largest economies pose threat to productivity and prices… attract more foreigners, top central bankers have warned. – so reported the Financial Times, just yesterday.
And yet in the same title’s news reporting this morning: Grant Thornton axes PAs… The accountancy firm has sacked almost all of its UK secretaries and outsourced some roles to India in a drive to cut costs (FT)
This of course enabled by the concept of homeworking – why pay your secretary to WFH from Surbiton, Reading or Guildford – when you can pay Chennai, Delhi and Mumbai rates instead..? – and then there’s the further advances in computerisation of the professions, such as this A.I. thing we hear so much about these days.
Don’t be downhearted ladies – the junior poundshop (‘still only £1’) Guardian that is the i paper slaps on some lippy and puts on a brave face to insist: Flexible hours for menopausal women could keep them in work – and boost economy by £1.5bn (i paper)
The reality may be that one of the Yookay’s largest accounting and advisory services firms has given all their secretaries the flick and outsourced their jobs to India – but: Firms will be encouraged to offer initiatives such as flexible hours and working from home as part of ‘menopausal action plans’ (i paper)
Hot flushes, anyone?
Heatwaves can speed up ageing, study suggests… The impact is broadly comparable with the damage smoking, alcohol use, poor diet or limited exercise can have on health… owing to the climate crisis (Guardian) – but we digress.
Official figures show that increasing female employment by 5 per cent could boost the UK economy by £125bn a year, as the Employment Rights Bill enters final stages in Parliament (i paper) – good old Labour, passing more pie-in-the-sky employment conditions that only the money-no-object public sector can afford to comply with.
Large firms of 250 employees or more will be legally obliged to have menopausal action plans (i paper) – no wonder Grant Thornton are giving Miss Moneypenny her P45 and replacing her with Q’s latest A.I. gizmos – with a bit of help from double O three-and-a-half pay rate Sangita over there in sunny Kolkata.
And yet still the politicians can’t – or won’t – see the reality: ECB president Christine Lagarde said an influx of foreign workers would play a “crucial role” in countering the negative impact of demographic trends on economic growth. Lagarde noted that without an influx of foreign workers, the euro area would by 2040 have 3.4mn fewer people of working age. (FT) – how about you don’t force women into the workforce so they can instead WFH at… oh, I don’t know… having a family? Before the menopause sets in. Bob’s your Uncle… and Betty’s yer Mum!
BoE governor Andrew Bailey said that the “acute” challenge that demographics and declining productivity posed to the UK economy had not been emphasised enough. (FT) – Oh it has, Andrew.

Crackdown on honour crime – boasts the giveaway Metro: …launched by the government – to combat growing abuses of women including murder, forced marriages and female genital mutilation – I’ve a notion how the government could eradicate from Britain these barbaric practices against women – but I hear BoE governor Andrew Bailey wouldn’t like it.

According to the Met’ and the BBC this year’s Notting Hill Carnival had far fewer incidents of serious violence than in recent years. Apparently, it was “mainly peaceful.” Okay, let’s take a look…
The stat’s tell us that 423 people were arrested this year compared with 349 last year.
There were 32 arrests for assaulting a police officer, 46 for the possession of an offensive weapon, 5 for robbery, 18 for sexual assault and there were two (non life threatening) stabbings…well, that is an improvement…
Now then, in a few weeks Tommy Robinson is holding a patriotic rally in London, with crowds expected to number close to a million.
I’m as certain as I can be that there won’t be any stabbings, no one will be carrying a weapon, no one will be robbed and certainly nobody is going to be sexually assaulted. Are we seeing a difference yet?
But you know what…the Met’ will still treat us like scum. They’ll be dressed in full riot gear and carrying batons and the BBC will report on any smidgen of bad behaviour and calling us “Far Right”, in that sneering tone they reserve for us proles.
I just hope the weather holds…
Jeff – im far too jaded. I think the starzi will start / incite violence using the Biden January 6 model ….it is in the interests of the TTK state to label dissenters – as far right thugs who will experience the full force of the law – to cite a certain Marxist PM ….
Yes, sadly I think you may well be right…
We’ve also got to look out for those snidey agent provocateurs that like to “gee things up a bit.” We know that the establishment do this and the media will be suspiciously well positioned to report on anything untoward…if it happens.
Tommy has put out lots of pleas for tip-top behaviour and to keep an eye out for any agitators, so
Fingers crossed…
Some protests are more equal than others….
Gazan students granted approval to study in UK
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgqnjqgp719o
“a predominantly government-funded initiative”
There’s me thinking it was tax payers money!
I wonder what this is costing us, suppose this government can always tax us more
See above.
“A prince’s university fees are among those paid by £200 million taxpayer-funded scheme for foreign students. But many recipients appear capable of paying their own way – with even a Prince from Lesotho among the distinguished Chevening alumni. The Mail can now reveal that the scheme costs taxpayers more than £50million each year, according to figures released under Freedom of Information laws.”
The Ramp
As soon as I heard of the building of ‘The Ramp’ on the shore of Gaza I had nightmares about the mass import of a prescribed terrorist organisation into the UK i.e. Hamas. This especially since there was a special UK ship ‘standing by’ in the Med.
Now I know that ‘The Ramp’ is something different:
First it was 1 Palestinian child needing urgent medical treatment
Then 6 needed medical treatment
Now 40 need to study in the UK
1-6-40 That is one hell of a ramp!
Yeah… I heard that sly turn of phrase…’funded by government’….and of course they will never go home [lol….must be ethnic cleansing…how many times have we heard they will never leave?]…..and it will be the thin edge of the wedge…guarantee thousands more will be brought here by Labour.
Zulu’s can be white?

In Pakistan just 1.3% of the population pays income tax.
The UK is following suit. As the saying goes.. .
Import the Third World, become the Third world.
Only 2.74 million people file personal income tax in Pakistan, which is just 4.1 percent of the labor force and 1.3 percent of the population in Pakistan. It is important to note that 35 percent of the individual filers pay zero income tax i.e. they fall below the taxable income and did not pay taxes during the year.
FREE ENERGY!
“Yes, China has supplied Pakistan with its operating civil nuclear power stations, including the CNP-300 reactors at the Chashma complex and the Hualong one (HPR1000) reactors at the Karachi plant. Pakistan also has a deal with China to build an additional HPR1000 reactor, Chashma-5, which is currently under construction. These Chinese-supplied nuclear power plants provide a significant portion of Pakistan’s electricity, and the ongoing cooperation reflects a deepening partnership between the two “Iron Brother” nations. ”

Just sent 53 minutes holding for HMRC.
Someone answered, the call then dropped.
Broken Britain in practice.
“HMRC has been widely criticised for repeatedly failing its telephone customer service targets, with only 66.4% of calls answered in 2023-24 against an 85% target, and average call wait times exceeding 23 minutes. While a recent report by the Public Accounts Committee suggested HMRC deliberately degraded its phone services to push taxpayers to digital channels …. ”

HMRC denies ‘deliberately poor’ phone service
^^ Live footage of POC on phone to HMRC (C) BBC Verified.
Here’s a similar story I heard from someone close to me.
The person decided to stop doing self-employed work and duly let HMRC know, via an online form similar to a tax return but somewhat simpler. As their other income was below the threshold for tax, they didn’t need to submit a tax return. All this was done well before the Jan 31st deadline for online returns (though paper returns needed to be in by Nov 30th of the year before).
A few email reminders came before the Jan 31st deadline but were generic in nature. Once the date passed, however, notice came of a £100 fine for not submitting on time, a sum which would increase sharply for each three months (?) that went by without a return being made.
The person called the HMRC line and went through various selection hoops before opting to wait to speak to a human. The call cost £15 for the 90 min’s it lasted, most of which was canned music and assurances that the call was “important” to HMRC! Finally, they spoke with a foreign-sounding man, who was helpful and said he would stop the fine; written confirmation of this duly came shortly after, as well as confirmation that no return was necessary.
I suppose we should be thankful for small mercies but the £15 was not refunded, nor the opportunity cost of the 90+ min’s spent on the call; not forgetting the anxiety caused by the threat of an open-ended fine.

Can’t find this in the BBC but GB news report on an asylum seeker who sexually attacked a woman in the street.
https://www.gbnews.com/news/migrant-crisis-indian-sex-attack
The interesting thing is that he was handed 5 months jail time for his attack.
Shocking to contrast with the 31 months that Lucy Connolly received for some hurty words.
It does indeed smell of two-tiered justice.
This story ? “A migrant has been convicted of sexual assault after evading immigration authorities for three years. Babu Mariyadasan, 48, entered Britain from India in 2019 after being granted his tourist visa. After overstaying his visa, he was placed on immigration bail but managed to dodge the Home Office for three years. ”
https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2099640/indian-migrant-sexually-assaults-woman-evading-authorities
Mariyadasan, who does not speak English, fled after the assault, but the victim managed to take a picture of him and show it to the police.
Under the UK Borders Act 2007, a non-British citizen sentenced to 12 months or more in prison for an offense is subject to automatic deportation, though they can appeal the decision on human rights grounds.

793 AD “While historical sources don’t provide specific numbers on rapes during Viking raids, the evidence suggests sexual violence occurred, with acts like shame-stroke (klámhogg) by the Norse and their enemies indicating a culture of dominance and humiliation where rape was a tool of control, albeit not the primary focus of every raid. Viking raids were primarily for plunder, but the taking of captives, including women, was common, with their fates often depending on the specific raid and region”
The Viking Era was a period in medieval history, generally spanning from the late 8th century (around 793 AD) to the mid-11th century (around 1066 AD)
