I wonder if he even knows who Kriss Donald is?

33 years on, I still remember hearing about Stephen Lawrence - a young man who looked like me, with dreams and a life ahead, killed in a racist attack. His family’s fight for justice still inspires. We honour his legacy by continuing the work to build a society free from racism

Valentina Gomez genuinely has the chance to play an absolute blinder here, think about it.
Imagine if a woman turns up via small boat and the government imprison/deport her, it would show the absolute hypocrisy of the UK government allowing 10s of 1000s of foreign potential rapists in but deporting one woman for words.
Please @ValentinaForUSA, do it 🙏

I have no interest in tolerating cultures that wouldn’t afford us the same respect. If you’re a foreigner in our country and you treat women like dirt, hate the British way of life, can’t even speak our language, refuse to pay your way and make no effort to adapt to our society?
A Restore Britain Government will deport you.
You change your ways to fit us, not the other way around.
If I lived in a Muslim country, I wouldn’t expect them to alter their culture to accommodate me. Of course not. So let’s stop bending over backwards to tolerate the intolerable.
This is Britain. We do things our way.
The British way.
Proudly, unapologetically and without compromise.

Thomas Sowell is 95 years old.
Let that number sit with you.
Ninety-five years on this earth, and in all of them, he has never held public office, never had a viral moment, never begged for anyone’s attention.
What he has done is write 30 books and spend 50 years of patient research building a body of work that has outlasted every fashionable idea his critics tried to bury him with.
While the loudest voices in Washington were chasing polls and the cleverest minds on campus were chasing grants, Sowell was in the library reading the data, tracking the outcomes, and dismantling one bad idea after another.
He doesn’t argue feelings.
He measures results.
He isn’t selling anything.
His whole approach boils down to one line that every politician and activist in this country should be forced to recite before they open their mouths:
“There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs.”
Sit with that, too.
Every federal program, every mandate, every well-meaning crusade carries a cost, and somebody pays it.
Sowell’s life work has been the simple act of asking who.
Listen to him on the “help” our communities have been promised for two generations:
“I’ve been doing studies now for 20 years of programs designed to increase equality. They increase inequality.”
“Even when the programs are designed for disadvantaged groups, they help the affluent members of the disadvantaged groups, while the lower members of those groups fall further behind than ever before.”
That is the whole affirmative action racket laid out in two sentences.
The kids from the same zip codes as the Harvard faculty get the slot, while the kids from the neighborhoods that actually need a ladder are told to wait their turn.
Sowell says it plain:
“The vast majority of blacks who go to places like Harvard, Cornell, and Stanford are not blacks from the ghetto. They’re from the same neighborhoods as the whites there.”
The race hustlers don’t want you to know that, because they need the grievance to stay in business.
Sowell’s advice to young people cuts right through the hustle:
“Stay away from the race hustlers.”
“Equip yourself with skills that people are willing to pay for.”
That is the whole ball game right there, a matter of skills, work, and accountability rather than slogans, hashtags, or another federal program designed to pad a consultant’s salary while leaving the South Side worse off than before.
Here is the line I want every young person in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, and every other corner of America to read tonight:
“Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good.”
That one sentence explains our schools, our cities, and why the neighborhoods the War on Poverty was supposed to save are in worse shape now than they were before the checks started flowing.
Sowell has pushed a whole generation of us to stop reacting and start asking harder questions.
What are the incentives?
Who actually benefits from this policy?
What do the numbers look like five, ten, twenty years later?
Ask those questions honestly, and the illusion falls apart.
The most dangerous man in America right now isn’t the one shouting on television.
He is the 95-year-old professor in Palo Alto who doesn’t need you to agree with him, because he has the data on his side.
Ninety-five years of telling the truth.
Thank you, Dr. Sowell.

Keir Starmer said the people attacking the Jewish community will face "the full force of the law".
One of the arsonists pleaded guilty today.
So they sent him home.
Hey @Keir_Starmer
If that is the "full force of the law" what would leniency look like?
Asking for a friend.
