Most moral army or something.
“Most of the 20 or so soldiers voted for the alternative by chanting ‘We want to f__k.’”

“It was decided and carried out. They washed her, cut her hair, raped her and killed her” Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion wrote this in his 1949 diary. The story of how 20 Israeli soldiers gang raped a 13 year old Palestinian girl for 3 days, by rota, and then shot her.

Actually it’s a fundamental British value to issue a fine of three days’ wages to those who fail to attend Anglican services at least once a week.
Ed Davey@EdwardJDavey
Imagine seeing British people at prayer and thinking “this is a great chance to stoke fear, hatred and division”. People who do that should have no place in British politics. Freedom to worship is a fundamental British value – one the Conservative Party used to believe in.

Keep in mind, that right now, as I type this, there is a guy facing 10 years for cheating in a fishing tournament.
None of these people will spend more than an evening in jail.

Within living memory (just about), Britain defeated the Ottoman Empire, occupied Constantinople, and sent armies into Russia to try to crush communism in its infancy.
What have the Croats done?

PROTIP: The Anglo will side with anyone, whether Muslim or Communist or whatever, to oppose Europe and Europeans. The Anglo is THE ENEMY.

This is a good piece of work, highlighting that Grooming Gangs or adjacent activities are still a problem, with victims once again being failed by the police.
But what I think is missing is the racial/ethnic/religious dimension - which is deliberately hidden from the public.

NEW: Children as young as 11 were abused in West Midlands mini-marts. We’ve seen email logs/intelligence reports that show a council worker raised High Street child sexual abuse claims multiple times with police over TEN years. This mini mart worker says abuse was systemic

It's gone from "We need immigrants for our economy" to "We need immigrants so we can give them benefits"
Matt Dathan@matt_dathan
Excl: New analysis shows plans to impose the new 10-year settlement rules to migrants already in the UK will increase child poverty by 90,000. Labour rebels have seized on the findings to argue that the policy conflicts with the party's pledge to reduce child poverty. They are planning to force a symbolic vote in parliament to expose the scale of opposition to the plans on the Labour benches. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

The Arabic etymology of the word Trafalgar has literally nothing to do with the reasons why the Square is named after it.
You either don’t realise that, in which case you’re an idiot.
Or you do realise it, and you’re just rubbing our nose in it with a wilfully bad faith argument:

How does the presence of this meaningfully enhance Britain? Better a dead high street than merchants like this. They should not be here.

We were also told mini marts sold nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to children. To investigate, - we sent a female undercover researcher to Dudley, where she bought a canister. - Another shop worker wanted to take her home. - we also found a mini mart worker charged with rape

Great to see. ‘Demonic’ is a really interesting word here. At our recent event Glasman used it intentionally because it’s his view that there’s a ‘demon’ in the body politic & to get rid of it we need a public exorcism. Show trials. Justice needs to be seen to be believed

@aswren @AbsoluteMeasure Have thought for a while we need a coherent, multi-agency national database for serious child safeguarding concerns & a chain of responsibility.
Should simply not be the case that Trading Standards’ only recourse to raise serious concerns is via the failing West Midlands Police.

People should be prosecuted for this level of public waste. Or at least fired and pensions revoked.

As annoying as this is we’re not the only country to have fucked it. Germans actually decommissioned all their nuclear. Gulf Arabs have had decades & infinite cash to build air defences and they’ve been busy building literal lines in the sand
realhansard@realhansard
Well it’s just as well we heeded Nick Clegg’s warnings back in the 2010s that nuclear power would take too long to build.
