The speed of this economic contraction will knock the air out of your lungs. The fastest in living memory, possibly in history is now upon us.

@Telegraph The foreign children are upper-middle class and privately educated. The parents fly in for the exams and move here if the kids pass. Catchment criteria is overcome via fraud or family connections in the area.

@GrantMBeasley News to us.

This past week, on a test bed in Britain, a Rolls-Royce jet engine ran at full take-off power on pure hydrogen, putting out water vapour instead of carbon.

Nobody on Earth had managed it before. It is the sort of thing that ought to stop the country in its tracks, and it will be forgotten by the weekend.

Leave aside the recent paroxysms of renewed net-zero insanity from Derelict Ed and the pervasive atmosphere of offended envy that greets much homegrown achievement nowadays in Britain. This engineering is a wonder, and it's British to the bone.

We gave the world the jet engine in the first place - Frank Whittle, a Coventry man and an RAF officer, patented it in 1930 while the Air Ministry assured him it was a curiosity. Rolls-Royce is today one of perhaps three firms anywhere that can build a large aero engine at the outer edge of the possible, and it has just done what most of the industry swore was twenty years away.

As usual, you marvel at how little the people who govern us had to do with it. The engineers in Derby are world-class; the stewardship above them is third-rate. They pulled off a global first while paying the most expensive industrial electricity in the developed world to keep the power on over the bench - a weight no German, American or Gulf rival has to carry. We produce frontier brilliance on the shop floor and fritter it away at the despatch box, and we have done for two generations.

That is the maddening shape of modern Britain: brilliance from below, sub- (or, indeed, ultra-) mediocrity from above. The people here who actually make things are still among the best in the world; the state that is meant to back them treats a firm like Rolls-Royce as a photocall today and a takeover target tomorrow, and prices its energy as though it would prefer the next plant were built in Texas.

Progress starts from the other end. Give these people what every rival government gives its champions and we beg ours to do without: the cheap, abundant power their competitors already enjoy, a supply chain built around them, and a state that guards a national asset rather than auctioning it. The hard part of a British revival - the talent, the nerve, the engineering - is already done, and was done again this week, by people who deserve a far better country than the one currently sitting above them.

We just taught an engine to breathe fire and exhale water. The least we owe the men and women who managed it is a government and a state as brilliant as they are.

@tricknologics Ugly British women are a serious political problem.

His job is to engineer civil unrest, delivering a Digital ID mandate for his WEF handlers.

This isn’t about popularity — and it never was.

What’s unfolding feels increasingly calculated, not accidental.

A steady push of policy after policy, each one framed as efficiency, safety, or modernization — yet collectively pointing toward something far more rigid underneath.

Digital identity systems. Centralized verification frameworks. Expanding requirements to access basic services in an increasingly monitored environment.

Supporters call it progress. Critics see something else taking shape: a quiet tightening of control wrapped in the language of convenience.

And the most unsettling part isn’t just the direction — it’s how normal it’s being made to feel while it happens.

Because once these systems are fully embedded, walking them back becomes almost impossible.

At that point, it’s no longer about debate.

It’s about structure.

The whole of Europe is infected with this insanity.

Remembering Ermes Mattielli, a good man and a hard worker who spent his life working tirelessly, an Italian man killed by the State.

To defend his property, he shot and wounded two gypsies who broke into his premises to steal.

After nine long years of trials, he was sentenced to 5 years and 4 months in prison for double attempted murder.
Right after the verdict, he suffered a heart attack and died.

Italians protested strongly against the judges.

Meanwhile, one of the gypsies kept stealing. Arrested again, he still avoided jail.

And that’s not the end of it, his inheritance was taken by the two gypsies to pay the compensation that would otherwise have fallen on his children.

This is the disgusting “justice” that oppresses us.

Rest in peace, Ermes, brother.

@gnat1467225 @RusGarbageHuman Because most people didn't own guns anyway. For most people, it meant a loss of nothing, so only now do we realise what we lost.

@moving_charlie That covers most of England.

@A1an_M There is something strange brewing in the ocean currents this year but this has more to do with our weakening magnetosphere, they don't want to discuss why that is happening.

The Digwa family statement was also posted on the largest UK Sikh account on IG.

Here is one reply.

When you actually immerse yourself in these Sikh spaces, you’ll often find them filled with the usual anti-White attitudes along with typical third-worldist conspiracies.

@MatthewParrott Some of the victims came from middle class homes, I don't agree with you. This is entirely about race and politics, the labour party is purchasing votes from these communities with indifference.

@RealBlackIrish Maybe he had another version of his statement ready but lost his nerve? Ordinary people find the gaze of TV cameras intimidating. I do get the impression he's been lectured, MI5 have a team for it.
