Apart from the fact that Badenoch wouldn't pass the required Immigration English Language test, there's also the fact that the Conservatives negotiated for Britain between 2016 and 2020. And look at what we got.

I notice the BBC hasn't halted its regular programming for the Tory Party Conference as they did for Reform's recent gathering of racist knuckedragging flagshaggers. Not far enough right for the BBC Board, obviously.

With Israel Katz announcing the intention of building a "security city" on the ruins of Rafah, to contain ALL Palestinians, we are seeing them saying the quiet part out loud. They are building concentration camps.

Why are there no videos of ICE deporting MS-13? We only heard about that gang everyday during the campaigns yet all we see are masked man in full war body armor throwing 13 year olds around inside court and grabbing babies from mothers on the street?

JUST HAPPENED: West: “You can’t violate another country’s sovereignty.” Jennings: “Why? We do it all the time. Who’s going to stop us?” He admitted America breaks the law constantly—and then dared the world to do something about it. That’s not journalism. That’s fascism on live TV.

Today, Starmer said he’d “take back control of our borders” and claimed that soaring immigration had done “incalculable damage” to our country. No. That damage is done by the ruinous dishonesty of our politicians and the hatred whipped up by their ugly anti-immigrant rhetoric. Shame on you, Starmer.
