@Rebecca_Brady_ @LBC @LBCNews @LBCNewsScot Glasgow is certainly known for housing them once their asylum applications are approved though.

Reform UK Scotland has unveiled new election van adverts featuring an image of a small boat with asylum seekers on board. Worth noting Scotland has had no known small boat landings. @LBC | @LBCNews | @LBCNewsScot

@BertDalziel I think it will resonate particularly in Glasgow due to the very high numbers of refugees housed there.

Right, Scotland is 93% white, England is 80% so a strategy playing on anxiety around immigrants won’t resonate to the same degree although inevitably it will to some extent, because it always does.

@ikeijeh Yes in the southern African country I grew up in, this would be unheard-of. The police would sjambok them.

This is not a black problem, children do not generally behave like this in Ethiopia. However, it would be foolish to ignore the fact that the majority of youths in Clapham's disorder seem to be black. If we're too afraid to ask why this started, we'll never find out how it stops.

@Odelora_ @visegrad24 Yes you are.

🇩🇪 A court in Germany has ordered a migrant who killed a police officer to be placed in a psychiatric clinic, ruling that he acted out of fear for his life when he shot the officer. The court in Saarbrücken ruled that the 19-year-old Turkish national, Ahmet G., was not guilty of murder but of aggravated robbery, and ordered compulsory psychiatric treatment. According to the ruling, after robbing a gas station, he took a police officer’s weapon and shot Commissioner Simon Bohr 6 times, believing the officer posed a threat to his life due to his schizophrenia. The officer died at the scene from his severe injuries. Prosecutors had sought a murder conviction and a 13-year prison sentence, but the court considered his mental illness a mitigating factor and opted for treatment instead of prison.

@ankoromochuu In the UK, Japanese people are everyone's favourite tourists for how polite, courteous and friendly you are. We're always happy to welcome you.

左翼はよく「日本は世界の嫌われ者」と私たち愛国者に言ってきます。 私は悲しい気持ちになりながらも、「海外でも日本を好いてくれている人はいる」と信じてきました。 Xで世界の皆さんと話せるようになり、大勢の人が日本を親しみを込めて好いてくれていると感じることができました。 ありがとう！

@Odelora_ @visegrad24 Stfu with your AI slop.

This is a highly controversial ruling. On one hand, it acknowledges the role of severe mental illness in criminal behavior; on the other, it leaves many feeling justice for the slain officer hasn’t been fully served. It highlights the difficult balance courts face between mental health considerations and accountability.

@johnhawkinsrwn @ClownWorld Oh god that is so not true - men in fitness classes are the most oblivious thing on the planet.

@ClownWorld In general, women have much less situational awareness than men. Not every woman is oblivious to other human beings around her and just gets in their way, but if there's someone doing that, it's 95% likely to be a woman. You can call this sexist, but it's absolutely true.

Sets up right in front of a walkway where people need to pass, then says everyone else has no self-awareness The irony is unreal

@seedposting "A big tell is a handsome groom" that's hilarious 😂

Something you should know if you're looking to hire a wedding photographer is that a lot of photographers have "styled shoots" in their portfolio. These are basically organized events that a photographer has paid to attend, in which professional models are hired to play the part of groom and bride, with a beautiful venue and beautiful decor. They're not real weddings. Real weddings are hard. You can't control the light or the people and once a moment has passed, it's gone - there are no do-overs. Styled shoots are a common cheat. It’s kind of unethical imo. Once you know what to look out for, it’s pretty obvious. A big tell is a handsome groom. But I think most people not in the industry probably have no idea!

@Obaidsview @RusGarbageHuman reddit.com/r/pakistan/s/j…

Ill be honest, the Pakistanis you have in the UK are much more extreme and classless than the people you meet in actual Pakistan Basically you have a 1970s village pakistan community, that has morphed into something new and ugly A lot of the people got their through chain migration and are nothing like the educated south Asians that are also predominantly in the UK middle and upper classes

What the hell is wrong with Pakistanis? How can one community be so utterly depraved? I’ve got a personal story from just a few weeks ago that says it all. I was with a woman at a petrol station in South London. She’s mid-20s but looks younger. I went inside to pay and use the restroom. When I walked back out, three or four Pakistani men were piling into their Toyota and rushing off. She filled me in on what happened while I was gone. She’d stepped out just to stretch her legs. One of them shouted over that she looked too drunk to be driving. She told them she wasn’t even the one driving and she was entirely sober. They didn’t drop it. They kept insisting she was too pissed and started pressuring her to come with them instead. She politely declined, but the back-and-forth dragged on until I finally appeared and they took off. By the time she told me the full story it was too late to film or get pictures. Do not leave your women unattended. In the Brave New World of modern Britain, any White woman left alone is fair game for the Pakistanis and Africans. I simply don’t understand how Sadiq Khan can keep insisting there are no rape gangs in London when I’ve now seen this predatory sh*t with my own eyes. I’m sure you know exactly what should be done to people like this in a just world.

@hartleysmike @moizali Ah, I'd better stop telling people 😂

@ToddGreel @moizali Totally agree , its like stepping back in time....but don't be telling people !! 😂

Any suggestions for underrated vacation spots in Europe? Looking for: - Not filled with just tourists - Great food - Beach that you can swim in - Locals friendly to out of towners

@Wallahi_ibnsane @VerminusM Bore off.

@VerminusM White European colonialists don't get to dictate terms. Who made Algerians refugees in France? White savages like you live on stolen land. You should start with yourself before policing others.

Why is it okay for Algeria to kick out a million Frenchmen but wrong for France to kick out a million Algerians? Why is everyone allowed to engage in population transfer except the West?

@axisnewsroom @Rightanglenews Stop with the AI slop please.

BREAKING - A White elderly woman working at the Detroit Airport has been fired after a black content creator who makes money off recording and baiting White people targeted her, provoking her with questions about Muslims before pulling out her phone to capture her reaction. It would be a shame if we found her and started a fundraiser for her.

@JohnSmithv9hy @Aku_700 Which is a far worse outcome than a dead armed robber.

@Aku_700 He could have used his fists to defend and disarm the assailant…guess what? Everyone would have lived another day!

This is why concealed carry is such an important Constitutional right💥 Pregnant woman in Texas is approached by an armed robber He pistol whips the man she’s with, she shoots him multiple times, and the innocent live to see another day Wow!

@Solarisco141691 @Thedrivenman Thanks for the ChatGPT copypasta.

The word "nigga" (a phonetic spelling of the N-word) carries heavy historical baggage as a slur that white people weaponized for centuries to dehumanize, terrorize, and enforce dominance over Black people—think slavery auctions, lynchings, Jim Crow signs, and everyday casual racism right up through the civil rights era. That context doesn't vanish just because time passed. Within Black American culture (especially in AAVE, hip-hop, comedy, and casual talk), many Black people have reclaimed it as an in-group term. It can function like "dude," "bro," or "homie"—a casual address, term of endearment, or even playful insult among people who share the lived experience of that history. It's not the same word when they say it; the sting and power dynamic get flipped because it's coming from inside the group that was targeted. This reclamation isn't universal—plenty of older Black folks, religious Black folks, or just individuals who hate the word still treat it as toxic no matter who utters it—but it's common enough that it's normalized in certain Black spaces. When a white person drops it, a lot of Black people hear the original slur's echo, not the reclaimed version. It feels like an outsider grabbing something that was forged in pain they didn't endure, then using it casually. Even if your intent is zero malice (quoting lyrics, joking with a Black friend, whatever), the perception is often "this is punching down" or "you're ignoring the history where your ancestors/group used it to keep us down." It's enforced as a cultural boundary: in-group gets the pass, out-group doesn't. Similar patterns exist with other reclaimed terms across marginalized groups, but this one is especially loaded because of America's specific racial history. It's not about "Blacks as a monolith"—opinions vary wildly by person, age, region, and context. Some Black people use it freely with white friends in private and don't care; others will shut you down instantly. Some argue the whole double standard is dumb or hypocritical and that no one should say it. But the dominant social rule in mainstream Black discourse (and polite society) is clear: white people saying it crosses a line for most. Intent matters less than impact when the word has that much blood on it. Bottom line: it's offensive to many because history made it radioactive for outsiders, and reclamation doesn't automatically extend the pass. You can debate whether that's fair or logical forever, but that's why the reaction exists.

It only took a single word 💀

@EssexPR I'm genuinely glad they didn't get a harsher sentence in this case but yes crazy that people do actual jail time for posting about things rather than physically doing them.

If you or I went to an asylum seeker hotel, rendered two of them unconscious, kicked them in the head and stamped on them… would we get a suspended sentence? NO

@PhantomJ262 @jamesd_graham Yes, they tend to live in very nice, safe areas.

@jamesd_graham Watch the UK turn into South Africa. South Africa still has liberals apparently ;)

Last year I attended a community police event in Clapham. They laughed at the suggestion of arresting youths for ‘minor’ shoplifting.. They wouldn’t bother arresting someone smoking cannabis. Why would they care about such ‘small’ crimes? This is the inevitable outcome 👇

@GenBlessings99 @RafHM That doesn't even make sense bro.

I see this clip of me has gone viral. When Muhammad Ali arrived in Zaire for the "Rumble in the Jungle" with George Foreman in 1974, a reporter asked him what he thought of Africa. "Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat!", he replied. Slavery was horrific for the enslaved. But the descendants of slaves alive today in the West have a far longer and higher quality of life than they would have if their ancestors had stayed in Africa. The truth is that, of the world's largest black populations, the richest black people in the world are black Americans. The next richest are black people in Canada and the UK. There are no victims of British Empire slavery alive today. Slavery was abolished almost 200 years ago (1834).

@europa It's all so shockingly pointless.

🇿🇦 Dr. Jane Luck (71), a respected clinical psychologist, and her husband Rolf Luck (77) were found dead on their farm with multiple injuries. Their Mercedes-Benz was later spotted speeding along the R339 toward Uniondale, a small town in the Western Cape, South Africa. The vehicle was flagged by local security before overturning during a police pursuit. The driver fled on foot but was quickly apprehended. A 34-year-old suspect has been arrested and remains in custody. Follow: @europa
