Something we need to remember. Too many of us are forgetting the concept of a shared culture.

Meanwhile.....yesterday in Downing Street!
Andy Burnham hosted a roundtable event with Muslim community leaders at 10 Downing Street, marking a continuation of his administration's engagement with faith communities since he took office in July 2026.

The hardline ethno-obsessives would repatriate these young lads to God-knows-where. I think we should embrace and applaud them. (And, thankfully, I think most British people would agree.)

That’d be up to them. They needn’t be forced to leave, in the same way that the good folk of Market Harborough weren’t required to leave when they built HMP Gartree

Here's your periodical reminder that the answer to the small boats crisis lies in the Bristol Channel.
Lundy island lies 12 miles off the coast of Devon and is about 1 1/2 square miles in area.
It has a boat jetty there already, and the main inhabitants are sheep and sea birds.
We could build a detainment facility there in record time if the will was there, and migrants could be plucked out of the water in the English Channel and ferried directly there. It'd take about a day's sailing either way.
This would establish a principle that no illegal migrant would ever set foot on the British mainland.
They should essentially be imprisoned on Lundy until they ask to be returned to their homelands or to a third country.
This plan wouldn't require us to do deals with any other country. It doesn't require infrastructure to be built half way around the world.
The promise of a grim and boring cell on a windswept and remote island should be all that's needed to stop those boats overnight.
The deterrent would mean that the facility wouldn't even have to be that big. Maybe just a few thousand of those who've already arrived, plus space for a couple of thousand more.
In time the facility would sit empty as the arrivals would have stopped.

The testimony of the German Johann W.A. Streit, a young technician, about the massacres of Greeks in Constantinople in 1822 by the Muslim Turks is horrifying. He writes that as soon as a wool factory finished its shift, the Turkish workers seized the prisons of Katrosan and dragged out 186 Greeks who had been arrested in the preceding days.
Many of them they killed on the spot, while they dragged the others through the cobblestone streets until they met a gruesome death:
"They tied the Greeks’ feet and hands with ropes and pulled them in all directions, dismembering them. They cut off their heads, impaled them on the tips of their swords, and paraded them triumphantly through the streets. Even though a fire had broken out that evening in one of the outlying districts, a fire that could have destroyed the entire city, no one was bothered by it. Everyone continued with the slaughter and the looting"
The next morning, Streit saw many Greeks, both men and women, hanging upside down from their windows.
"The victims were writhing and screaming. Knives and swords had been nailed into the buttocks of many. From time to time, they would cut off another piece of flesh".
That morning, Streit counted approximately 4,000 corpses of both sexes. He recounts the incident in which a mob broke into the house of a Greek jeweler. One of his daughters jumped out of the window and was killed.
"They brought the rest of the family down to the square. There they stripped the other daughter and the maid naked, and first cut off their breasts and then their noses. The son, a robust 24-year-old young man, rushed at a Turk, punched him in the temple, seized the bloodied yataghan from his hand, and with one blow from top to bottom cut off his nose so that it remained hanging from his lips. Within a minute, a hundred swords had hacked him to pieces".
Later, the impaling of many Greeks is described:
"Around midnight, they brought more Greeks, men and women, among them three small children. They impaled them with their swords and threw them alive into the fire".
Streit adds: "I did not see a single Turk whose face showed any compassion. Even six-year-old children vented their hatred on the dead. They stabbed the slain Greeks with knives".
Wherever and however they could, the Greek population resisted the barbarity:
"A Greek merchant, as soon as the Turks broke into his shop and house, took refuge with his family in the upper floor. He had with him two barrels of gunpowder. And while forty bloodthirsty Turks were climbing the stairs, he set it on fire. The house blew up into the air. A pharmacist killed 200 Turks who were besieging his house. He poisoned all the wine barrels in his cellar with arsenic and then committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor. The Turks drank, were poisoned, and died curled up like worms in front of the house".
All of this is described in detail in his book "Constantinople in the Year 1821", which was published in Leipzig in 1822. The Greek title is "Jahann Wilhem August Streit. Η Κωνσταντινούπολη κατά το έτος 1821", and in German "Constantinople im Jahre 1821".

I've been blocked by Labour MP Apsana Begum.
I've called her out numerous times for what I believe is her habit of prioritising issues affecting Bangladesh over the needs of the British people she was elected to represent.
Now she's blocked me.
It seems she can't handle scrutiny of her political priorities from me, a British voter.
This is the first time I've ever been blocked by a sitting Member of Parliament.
I find it highly disrespectful that an elected MP has chosen to block me.
MPs hold public office, are accountable to the British people and should expect their actions to be subjected to public scrutiny.
Blocking criticism doesn't make the questions go away.

Those of us with honest held fears about uncontrolled immigration, unknown dinghy arrivals, islamification and just too much change too quickly often get accused of being racist.
Obviously for those that bother to look a little closer at what are saying this is shown not to be the case.
If your ethnic origins are from elsewhere but you want to integrate, to contribute, to get along and you have love for this country, you're more than welcome.
Well done these boys, thats the spirit. 🇬🇧

♦️WHITE PRIVILEGE♦️
This is how our cotton mills and wool mills made their profits, which afforded them their fine stone-built mansions on the outskirts of mill towns.
It was dangerous work, fingers were often lost, eye injuries common, no comfort breaks, no health insurance and no factory nurse.
This work was done on empty bellies after a walk to work. Malnutrition was common place and discipline hard. A water barrel with a wooden ladle for dry dusty days as cotton dander filled the choking air.
There were no holidays to look forward to, no sick pay, and kids as young as 7 sent to work in the miserable conditions their parents stomached for a lifetime.
They didn't play much, they were too knackered for that. A cold hard bed was all they could hope for. Arthritis and joint pains kicked in early as crippled fingers in their middle years struggled with looms.
And our MPs talk about reparations for slavery, when every God damned nation was using slaves.
White privilege... you disgust me. There should be a plaque of remembrance dedicated to the entire working class!

Racism: Now You See It, Now You Don’t
Last Friday a 39-year-old gunman named Kevin T. went on a shooting spree in two suburbs of Paris (Trappes and La Verrière), killing one person and wounding seven others. The murderer reportedly selected persons of color as his targets.
French President Emmanuel Macron said that the attack was the first terrorist act in France committed for reasons of skin color or religion.
The photo at the top of this post shows the aftermath of the massacre that killed 90 people at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris on November 13, 2015. The killers were mujahideen for the Islamic State, and targeted their victims for religious reasons, i.e. because the latter were not Muslims.
However, the incident evidently does not count as an attack “for reasons of skin color or religion”. As we all know, Muslims and/or brown people who kill white non-Muslims can never be said to have racist or religious motives.
Those are just the rules of the game, even though they make no sense.

Shocking neglect and abuse of retired Lt Col Stephen Maguire DCM SAS, a natural born leader of men who spent 40 years in service to his country, and his son's long fight for justice. Please share Ben's post widely: "My father, Retired Lt Col Stephen Maguire DCM SAS, is a man who spent nearly 40 years in dedicated service to this country, serving from 1970 until 2009. He is a natural leader, a decorated soldier, to those who served with him. However, he has been completely abandoned and betrayed by the very system he gave everything to.
I am fighting for justice for my father. This struggle is a mirror of my own life; my own journey marked by the negligence of MPs, charities, and veteran services which led me to the absolute rock bottom of homelessness as a veteran myself. I know exactly what it is like to be discarded by the people who promised to provide support.
After years of fighting, we finally have a pathway toward the right care, but the damage is already done. The sheer scale of the failings along the way has crippled a man who likely only suffered from PTSD. What should have been a manageable recovery became a total collapse because of institutional incompetence.
This isn't a failure of one person or one office it is a systemic rot. For too long, the UK government, regardless of which side of the fence they sit on, has played a political game with the lives of our veterans. Whether it is Labour or the Conservatives, the result is the same: service men are treated as assets when they are useful and as liabilities the moment they are broken. We are told our sacrifices are "remembered," but the reality is that once the uniform comes off, the care vanishes.
We sought help for my dad, worried about PTSD and dementia resulting from his service. Through the SAS Association and Veterans’ Aid, he was referred to various healthcare facilities. Instead of professional care, he found negligence from these referrals.
In the last few years alone, he has been through multiple institutions that have failed him. We've dealt with incorrect diagnoses, doctors who tried to push him out of their care because he was "too difficult," and the removal of life-saving medication that led to him being sectioned under the Mental Health Act. He was sedated and left to decline without specialist care. His PTSD was completely ignored, and his medical history was dismissed. In one instance, he was admitted to the hospital due to low sodium caused by the excessive use of anti-psychotic medication.
The most infuriating part is the silence from the top. MPs have explicitly ignored this situation and failed to act for a Lt Col in 22 SAS. The "Military Covenant" is nothing more than a piece of paper used for photo opportunities while men like my father are left to rot.
The system has failed. The NHS has failed. Veteran charities have failed. From the MOD passing the buck to the medical incompetence of the facilities, my father has been abandoned like thousands of others.
I am posting this because we need accountability. It is not enough to simply "help" now; there must be justice for the way he was treated. My father spent four decades looking after his men and serving at the highest level for the United Kingdom; it is a national disgrace that the government failed to look after him and many like him.
Do not listen to the rhetoric the government continues to push. As this is an example of what happens after 40 years of dedicated service.
Please share this. We need the people in power to answer for this. We need leaders who actually lead, not politicians who just talk."

June 6, 1944. An American paratrooper jumps into Normandy in the dark and lands on the roof of a church.
By the end of the war he had been declared dead, held a funeral he didn't attend, escaped the Nazis, and fought his way toward Berlin in a Soviet tank unit.
His name was Joseph Beyrle. He's believed to be the only American soldier to serve in both the US Army and the Red Army during World War Two.
Beyrle was from Muskegon, Michigan. He joined the 101st Airborne, the Screaming Eagles. His buddies called him Jumpin' Joe.
On D-Day night his plane was hit by flak and he jumped early. He came down on a church roof, slid off, and lost his unit in the chaos. For a few days he fought on his own, blowing up a power station and cutting German communications.
Then he was captured.
Here's where it gets strange. A German soldier ended up wearing Beyrle's uniform and dog tags. That German was killed. When the body was found, the Americans identified it as Joseph Beyrle.
The army told his parents their son was dead. His hometown held a funeral mass for him. His obituary ran in the local paper.
Meanwhile, he was very much alive, being moved from one German prison camp to another.
He escaped more than once. One time he and two other prisoners jumped off a train heading east. They thought they were heading for Russia and freedom. They got lost and ended up in Berlin, where they were caught by the Gestapo, beaten, and tortured.
In January 1945, from a camp in eastern Germany, he finally made a clean escape. He went east, toward the gunfire. Toward the Soviets.
When he found a Soviet tank unit, he walked out with his hands up, holding a pack of Lucky Strike cigarettes, and shouted the only Russian he knew. American comrade.
It worked.
He asked to join them. And they said yes.
For about a month, an American paratrooper rode with Soviet tank crews as they pushed toward Germany. He used his demolition training. He fought. He was reportedly welcomed by a Soviet officer who was one of the rare women commanding a tank battalion.
Then a German dive bomber attacked. Beyrle was badly wounded.
He was evacuated to a Soviet hospital. Soviet Marshal Georgy Zhukov reportedly visited, heard his story, and gave him papers to get to the American embassy in Moscow.
When he showed up, the embassy didn't believe him. As far as the US was concerned, Joseph Beyrle was dead. They held him under guard until his fingerprints proved who he was.
He made it home to Michigan in April 1945.
In 1946 he got married. In the same church where they'd held his funeral.
Decades later, in 1994, he was honored at the White House by President Bill Clinton and Russian President Boris Yeltsin for serving both countries.
And the last twist. His son, Joseph Beyrle II, grew up to become the United States Ambassador to Russia.

Two years a follower sent me this, a Muslim woman telling her of the men's attitude to white girls, which is utter contempt. It was confirmed when @RupertLowe10's Inquiry was published.
"A Muslim friend of mine was explaining to me that basically white girls are seen as just something to f**k, like prostitutes. Mainly married men & fathers can carry on being good dad's & fathers & just rape white girls like a release.
"They don't see it as rape, like they don't see shagging a goat as rape.
"She said "like some white blokes watch porn, they go & 'shag' a white girl". She's said it so flippantly. To them, "rape" would be to force yourself on a "pure" Muslim woman. To them, this isn't "rape" - these girls are nothing. Just shit on their shoes. They barely see them as human.
"She said the wives know & don't even care, because most of them don't love their husbands anyway, a lot of the marriages are arranged, so as long as they don't have to have sex with them, they couldn't care less if they're raping white girls - if it 'keeps them (their husbands) off their backs'".
"She was trying to say it to me like a positive thing. "This is why most Muslim marriages last so long" she said, "because they don't have to worry about the sex side of things - he can just get laid when he wants, & she can get on with being a wife.. you know like in white British marriages & they all break up because the wife won't shag her husband, & so he has an affair?
"'Well, like, in Muslim communities, the wives, unless they need or want a baby, if they don't want sex, they just let him or encourage him to got off and f**k a white girl'.
"She was saying this to me like it was all perfectly normal & didn't know why I was so shocked or angry about it.
"She added 'its not like they're nice girls though is it? Is not like it's your daughter who goes to church & stuff, it's just like little slags that go drinking down the park & stuff'.
"I just couldn't believe what she was saying. This is a woman who I have really cared about & thought we were friends. This mindset is deep. She got a few choice words. I don't think we're friends anymore.
"I just needed to share it because I'm really angry."

A 19-year-old Afghan Muslim who had memorized the whole Quran — was arrested outside of Afghanistan after locals caught him red-handed digging up the grave of a freshly buried young girl.
Police say he confessed to repeatedly exhuming the bodies of minor girls, cleaning and dressing them, then sexually assaulting their corpses.
He only targeted girls’ graves.
He was later shot and killed while in police custody.

This is becoming absolutely ridiculous.
Just a quick update on the case, I’ve received a phone call from the Metropolitan Police informing me that the case has been dropped with no further action.
I’ve been arrested seven times simply for expressing my views, yet I’ve never been charged. Just endless stress, anxiety, and nights spent in a cell.

In 2025 Britain lost two of its oil refineries in a matter of months.
Grangemouth, Scotland's only refinery, stopped refining, with 450 jobs gone. In Lincolnshire the Lindsey refinery, which made around a tenth of the fuel produced in this country, went bust and stopped production in August, taking about 625 jobs with it. A buyer was found for the site. It decided refining there was not viable.
So we import. In the 12 months to August this year Britain bought £13.1 billion of refined oil from abroad. And on Wednesday, so the story goes, John Healey means to tax it.
The plan is a "carbon charge" on imported petrol, diesel and other refined products, an extension of the carbon border tax that begins in January. The Energy Secretary, Miatta Fahnbulleh, is said to be keen. The reasoning offered is that British refineries carry millions of pounds in net-zero costs that their foreign competitors do not, so imported fuel undercuts them, and the fair thing is to charge the imports the same.
In other words, the government accepts that the costs it imposes on British refineries make them - and, by extension, us - uncompetitive. It accepts that they are losing to foreign fuel because of those costs. And its answer is to leave every one of those costs exactly where it is, and tie the same weight to every tanker coming into the Humber.
No British refinery becomes one penny more competitive by this. As part of Labour's longest-standing design, first put into immortal practice by that laconic colossus Clement Attlee, dooming one British arm of state capacity after another to scrofula and irrelevance, that is precisely the point.
These people don't want Grangemouth to reopen, nor for Lindsey to restart. They're certainly not bothered about the money in your pocket, either, given the only thing this new step will channge is the price at the pump, for a country that already pays tax on more than half of every litre, and for a motorist who was promised a fuel duty freeze until the end of December and has no idea what comes after it. The TaxPayers' Alliance called it "a shameless tax raid disguised as environmental policy", which is about as generous as it deserves.
This is the Metropolitan class's idea of industrial policy. When a British industry is crippled by the costs the state loads onto it, the state's remedy is to load the same costs onto everyone else, and call the result a level playing field. It is levelling, certainly. Everybody ends up lower. Call it The Labour Way.
If you understood that energy is the economy, not merely part of it or the engine under it, you might design a programme like ours that takes the weight off instead. Progress would abolish the Carbon Price Support on day one and strips every environmental and social levy off energy bills within 21 days, with a statutory guarantee bringing industrial electricity from 18 to 20 pence a kilowatt-hour down below 8, so that a refinery, a steelworks or a chemicals plant can compete on price.
Then we resume licensing in the North Sea, so that the oil under our own sea is ours to use.
And we cut fuel duty permanently to 45 pence a litre, cancel the planned rises, and require a vote in both Houses of Parliament before any Chancellor can raise it again.
Healey's refinery workers have already been paid off. His tax will be passed onto the working man, like it always is; the loser in this scheme is the van driver in Grimsby, filling up with imported diesel because the refinery up the road is shut.
