Ice cold in Alex

@GoodwinMJ "I've been coming in and out of London since 1981". You were BORN in 1981, you ridiculous cylinder. Ahem. Anyway, did you ask yourself why any of this is the case? Go on. Try to address each point and explain why it has come to pass. Spoiler - it's not because of brown people.

All these things happened to me in London today I paid nearly £30 for a train ticket to take me into London from a town just 30 miles away —on a Saturday The first person I sat next to, I think from India, decided to have a FaceTime conversation with his friend on speakerphone so we all had to listen to it The train was late by 40 minutes due to unexplained “signalling issues”. It was also filthy. I paid nearly £8 for a pint I offered a woman my seat on the tube without realising she was with a man who intervened and said “no man”. He was not from the UK. I think he took my gesture as an insult. I was asked for money by homeless people 3 times in one day I noticed several people who are paid to give information to taxpayers and tourists over the tannoy on the London Tube cannot speak English properly A cabbie told me “London is dead most nights”, unless you are the global high net worth set or top 1% Restaurants are visibly struggling and often hideously overpriced I had dinner in a neighbourhood where the average rent is £3,663 per month while half of all local social housing has gone to people who were not even born in the UK I was constantly aware I should not get my phone out on the street as 80,000 were stolen last year I also read on the way back while checking that stat that there were 90,000 shoplifting offences in London last year, up 54% My train back —delayed—was suddenly changed at the last minute with all passengers on board. They were told it would no longer be stopping at all stops. I bought a tin of instant coffee on the way home and it had a security tag on it Maybe I’m in a bad mood and perhaps it’s amusing to think how somebody of my political outlook is “triggered” but to me there is a deeper point here London is over —it’s so over It’s a city in visible decline with deteriorating standards and no real sense of identity or belonging Going in and out of our capital city is a truly miserable experience Infrastructure is falling apart, as is the social contract I’ve been coming in and out of London since 1981 I simply cannot remember a time when it’s been this visibly dire and when so many things just do not work as they should

@demster70 "Being in the EU meant having someone nobody voted for who isn’t even British having more control over our country than our elected pm.. " It literally didn't, but I guess the bexit cult relies almost entirely on willful ignorance and denial of observable fact these days.

Actually Brexit means we’re now independent and in charge of our own destiny. Being in the EU meant having someone nobody voted for who isn’t even British having more control over our country than our elected pm.. so tell me how voting Brexit harmed the country? With the right leader Brexit will be a success which we haven’t had.. yet.

@WesternDigiCare Any particular reason you're not processing your RMAs in the UK right now? I've been waiting for an update to my RMA status for over a week since delivery of the return.

@NightCityTimes @prwhittle @elonmusk You appear to know fuck all about the UK, what is happening here and the reality of the situation. Rather than believing an overentitled white-supremacist stirring racial hatred for political leverage maybe sit this one out until you've done more reading. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

As an American, I believe the US needs to reassess our “special relationship” with the UK due to the current issue, and due to the increasingly Soviet approach the UK is taking to oppress it’s own citizens and threaten prominent voices like Elon Musk. The UK needs to make a swift and determined re-orientation towards Western values.

The enormity of the rape gangs issue, known now to the world thanks to @elonmusk , means British history for the past 20 years must be reassessed. We have seen the biggest racially aggravated hate crime of the post-war years. And it was carried out against white girls, who were targeted because they were white. Nothing else comes close. But what is the narrative we have been living with during this entire period, a narrative imposed on us from above? That only white people can be racist. That multiculturalism is an unalloyed good, that diversity is our greatest strength. That mass immigration is inevitable, valuable and should be encouraged, that we are nothing without it. That all cultures are equal, that they should not on any account by criticised, indeed should be celebrated. The need to enforce this narrative has shaped our public policy and politics for the whole of the 21st so far. A massive amount of capital, both intellectual and financial, has been expended in keeping it in place. It has dictated the direction of our whole society. If we can indeed reassess in the light of what we, and the world, now know, there is the real chance that we can end this era of lies, hostile ideology and utter demoralisation.

@doitqplus @recusant_raja @elonmusk @OldhamCouncil @UKLabour You dumb motherfuckers bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Sources inside @oldhamcouncil contacted me overnight distraught that @UKLabour leaders had secretly met with sectarian Muslim opposition councillors. Their goal? Sabotage the Judge-led Telford-style inquiry into grooming gangs that was agreed to take place in Oldham after the government had refused a public inquiry. In Telford, independence was key to exposing the truth - the council couldn’t interfere. But in Oldham, @shah_arooj’s corrupt administration is reportedly plotting yet another cover-up, ensuring they control the investigation's outcome. This isn’t just the council marking its own homework - it’s writing the questions, marking the answers, and publishing whatever suits them. Arooj Shah's Pakistani gangster endorsed @OldhamCouncil's ongoing deceit should not surprise anyone. Especially now the evidence is out of the involvement of both @JimfromOldham and the Deputy Prime Minister @AngelaRayner in the cover up. This cover up is no longer just about Oldham. It concerns all of us. The next @OldhamCouncil meeting is scheduled for Monday 20th January. I urge everyone to attend. Raja Miah MBE

If you're a billionaire you've already used the system against the people. The moral judgement of other billionaires is hell-level low bar.

@3point6roentge1 @electikk2 @CllrAdamBoyden @domjoly @LordAshcroft @realDonaldTrump Trump is a convicted fraudster.

@electikk2 @CllrAdamBoyden @domjoly @LordAshcroft @realDonaldTrump If you think he's never done a favour then you don't know successful business. Being ruthless is part, but calling in / giving favours is another. Nothing wrong with looking out for yourself either, no random is going to look out for you before themself.

To @realDonaldTrump . Just a gentle reminder what the UK Labour politicians have commented about you…

@LordAshcroft @realDonaldTrump Oh, do fuck off, you tedious, dimwitted irrelevance. theintercept.com/2019/12/03/som…

@Inevitablewest @ZiaYusufUK Because it's not in Brighton and nothing illegal happened you fucking moron.

@ZiaYusufUK Why did Brighton police allow this?

The left burn an effigy of a right wing MP and get a statement of thanks from the police. If the effigy had been of Sadiq Khan, Diane Abbott or David Lammy the arrests would have been immediate with long prison sentences handed down in record time. The two tiered policing in this country is obvious. Only one party is brave enough to talk about it. “Sussex Police Chief Superintendent Howard Hodges said: 'We thank the public for their support to ensure the Lewes bonfire celebrations were once again a spectacular event that have been enjoyed safely.'”

@ZiaYusufUK Ah, I see the "FrEe sPeECh, but not like that" brigade are shouting at clouds. Lewes is the Cable Street of the south coast for you fash little fucknuggets. Good luck taking them on. They've borne a grudge from long before the gun powder plot and they DGAF.

@skylarlyn101 @JoshEakle @RationalBlonde usnews.com/news/best-stat…. gao.gov/products/gao-2….

@JoshEakle @RationalBlonde Even if your right it not even trumps fault that all our supply chains are overseas he didn't do that... the companies got greedy and decided to use slave labor instead of paying Americans a fair wage

So it begins. MAGA is about to find out how tariffs actually work first hand.

Legend 'til the end.

Ol' lettuce brain schooling people on arrogance, foolishness and economic damage, is it? Righto.

@weatherchannel @StopAntisemites There is nothing antisemitic about the keffiyeh. To suggest so is to excuse the attempted zionist erasure of Palestinians. Hiding the genocidal intent of a fascist theocracy behind the historical suffering of the people the no longer represent is despicable and unconscionable.

The Weather Company and its consumer brand, The Weather Channel, are widely recognized for our integrity and the trust we have with the public. We deeply apologize to anyone we offended through the inadvertent selection of an image in our recent ad campaign. We certainly don’t support or condone any form of antisemitism. We immediately removed the ad upon recognizing our mistake.

Why is the @weatherchannel sharing ads featuring a keffiyeh, a symbol now associated with violence against Jews post 10/7?

You see this, this is what happens in real life. The bots can't show up on the streets. On the right there (yeah the far right) are the 6 nazis who turned up to cause mayhem. Everyone else is there to stop them. This is England.
