Pakistani immigrants say that without them Britain would be a small country.

Absolute RUBBISH then all British people are owed Reparations from Italy for the Roman Empire!

Europe has had it with the failed immigration experiment. The age of deportations has begun as European Parliament votes through measures allowing deportation of migrants to 'return hubs.’

Lenny Henry wants Britain to cough up £18 trillion in reparations because 'all black British people personally deserve money for the effects of slavery.' Funny how he skips the part where Britain was the first major power to ban the slave trade in 1807, then sent the Royal Navy's West Africa Squadron to patrol the coast for decades. They seized 1,600 slave ships and freed 150,000 Africans .. at the cost of British sailors' lives and huge expense. Britain didn't just stop its own involvement; it actively fought to end the trade globally. Meanwhile, in Africa today (per the Global Slavery Index), countries like Eritrea, Mauritania, South Sudan, Nigeria and others still have some of the world's highest rates of modern slavery .. forced labour, child soldiers, hereditary servitude, trafficking. Millions trapped right now. And Lenny's own roots? Jamaica (his parents' homeland). It still has notable modern slavery issues too, including forced labour and exploitation. So... demanding trillions from British taxpayers (including black Brits) for 200-year-old history, while African and Caribbean nations haven't fully confronted slavery's continuation on their own soil? That's not justice. That's selective outrage and hypocrisy. Focus on ending slavery today everywhere .. not guilt-tripping one country that helped stop it yesterday.

Another day and another Mohammad has been found guilty of being responsible for the death of a British woman. Mohammad Durnion invited Reanne Coulson to his flat in Coventry last summer. Whilst there she suffered head and neck injuries, as he attacked her. He claims that she died of an overdose. Neighbours heard screaming and reported it to the police. The police arrived but did not thoroughly search the flat, which was in appalling condition, using a bucket for a toilet. They did not find Reanne’s body, even though it was in the flat. When the police had left, Durnion returned to the flat, retrieved the body and took it to the woods where he tried to burn it. Durnion has been found guilty of manslaughter and will be sentenced tomorrow.
