This a million times. People of colour being dragged on to debate maniacs about imaginary labels & race science is an abomination. proper ‘how German are you’ Nazi shit Note that people like me with white migrant parentage never asked to defend our identity Englishness. Is. A. Made. Up. Thing

I got seconded to the Kings Cross Partnerhip briefly in 1997 pre-redevelopment. By every metric it was a shithole - a lively shithole - but a shithole enough to get EU & gov funding.

Les glaciers des Alpes Suisses ont perdu 20% de leur volume en 5 ans, 2026 est la deuxième pire année juste après 2022. Ce bilan effrayant est à relier avec la succession d'étés caniculaires qui aggravent l'ablation estivale. Rapport complet disponible ici doi.glamos.ch/pubs/annualr...

Since Braverman does not identify as English, its strange for her to insist that she could define for others the rules of an in group that she does not believe she can ever be a member of *and* to believe her intuition should trump a broad sustained consemsus amomg those who do identify as English!

The Brexiters are now put in the position of defending Brexit, when most of them have long since disowned it, called it a failure, said that it was "done wrongly", etc. They have no case at this point. Most of them gave up long ago and try not to mention Brexit any more.

Dislocated his knee during a basic bayonet drill. 😄 substack.com/@thegrumpyni...

cosplay, the reality is far more farcical. His time as a tank driver with the King's Royal Hussars was remarkably brief and entirely devoid of distinction; his military career came to an ignominious and clumsy halt not in the heat of combat, but when he managed to dislocate his own kneecap during a basic bayonet drill. He was medically discharged before he ever saw a shred of active service or set foot on a foreign battlefield. To use this short-lived training mishap to build a persona of military machismo is a supreme insult to those who have actually served. It takes an extraordinary amount of nerve to play the battle-hardened commander when your only operational casualty was your own leg during a practice run.

Mahmood's rationale remains the same. Fewer (legal, working) migrants => less racism Nothing to do with integration. No evidence. I'd add this *doesn't* show she hates immigrants (FTAOD don't think she does). It shows her contempt/distrust/fear of ordinary Brits.

The return of race politics

Ethnic minority politicians on the right are engaged in depraved acts of self-hatred, in order to capture a movement which will never accept them

They never will through shame and further rightward drift. Any party member who would take ownership has left the party. Trotters up, so to speak. Instead you have bigger idiots arguing for more of the same.

My favourite fact of the week. Musk's Las Vegas tunnel carries fewer people per week than the Metropolitan Railway (London / the World's first Underground railway) when it was STEAM powered. How is anyone taken in by this pathetic chancer?

The Telegraph turned my father (then in his mid-Seventies) into a Brexit-voting anti-European who could not name one good reason to vote for it after the fact. Readers (if any): I have lived in Europe since 1999, I’m married to a Dane, his kids are half-Danish.

From his lanyard, it’s clear that the Reform UK member who assaulted two female protestors at the party’s conference is Stephen Cooling of Sutton Coldfield. I assume @westmidlandspolice.bsky.social are on the case? He ought to be easy to find, as he stood for UKIP in the May 2016 local elections.

To me, the most eye-opening bit of this recent Reform scandal is that these knobheads literally say that the reason they need foreign money is because British people won’t support them.

This is racism, straight out of the Trump playbook. Reform are trying to turn our great country into a franchise of Trump's America. There are countless British patriots who came here from overseas, many of them refugees we proudly welcomed. That's the kind of country we are.
