This woman IS running the country, and she gets a pass. Those knocking the media coverage now should review the reporting of Burham- shocked villagers, interviews with organisers claiming proof of the Far Right wanting to kill all Muslims, PM chiming in to support multiculturalism… history rhyming?

Well, they do. The world is how it is, not how you would like it to be. Even the Guardian admitted as much after Reform’s overblown statistics were released. The Home Office has identified a serious problem. But you just won’t….

No. But we can detain “illegal entrants” and expel those here past their term limit. This was avoidable. Anyone who says it wasn’t has completely lost touch with reality, and also lost their moral compass…

I don’t know why they’re getting all worked up! I mean, I’m sure you’d be happy to put them up at your place. After all, the Government has provided them all with a handy do and don’t guide as far as the local women are concerned…

To be fair, there’s no evidence at all because Essex Police, like all forces do not keep those statistics. Because the Government doesn’t want them recorded. Meanwhile, in the refugee capital of Scotland, the collateral damage keeps building up..

They didn’t lead with photos of the rapist, or the bloke with the loaded gun? Guess you have to read the article for that. Nigel tends to save his outrage for things that play better to his fan base. Or those that seem entirely preventable. Or both…

Shouldn’t we be slightly more concerned that our Government is straight up lying to us?

I’d be careful about local elections. Who votes in them? Not your average voter. Which is why the Lib Dem’s historically did so well. They’re often a protest vote. You gov suggest this for a GENERAL election. So it’s not the Tories who’ve lost votes to Reform since 2024.

Not always, no. I’m also a white male who’s getting on a bit, but I have the grace and self-awareness to realise I’m unlikely to be a target of sexual assault or rape.

Shouting at people and putting up posters is hardly brave, is it? Shouting at this lot would have been brave and necessary, but none of them, including hope not hate did that.

These two as well. Which you could have chosen, but for some reason you didn’t. You know very well why this is a big story, and those aren’t (even if they should be). It was on camera, and the police were involved.

This is my neck of the woods. Where I grew up. It’s fully institutionalised. Ask any cop who’s been in for more than five minutes. It’s part of every annual review, every promotion board, every crime review.
