Greek Member of European Parliament Afroditi Latinopoulou:

"Europe has become unrecognizable, filled with Mohammeds who hate us in the name of Allah."
“Socialists want to Islamize Europe.
We must immediately end subsidies and expel them all!”

Thoughts?!

Muslims were welcomed into Lebanon when it had a Christian majority. The moment they had enough power, they turned against the Christians.

Listen to this fearless survivor of the Lebanese civil war expose Islam’s goal to take over the world.

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

I am reminded at this time of the year just how little I care for multiculturalism. We have a culture. A special culture. And it's one that works fine for us Brits.

A culture that respects women, rewards hard work, values discipline. It's polite, fair, good-humoured.

Where personal responsibility matters.

A coherent country only works when it has a shared culture. When all people are generally pulling in the same direction. When there are common expectations, common standards, and common values.

We wait politely, we tidy up after ourselves, we say please and thank you. We say good morning on the dog walk, we hold the door open, we respect the queue order at the bar. We exchange knowing looks with each other when somebody flaunts those same rules...

None of this is written down. None of it is enforced. And yet the British understand it.

Small, everyday threads that make living alongside millions of strangers not just possible, but bearable.

Even pleasant.

A society does not function simply because people live in the same place. In the same town. On the same rock.

It functions because people broadly agree on how to behave, what is acceptable, what is not, and how we treat one another.

Nobody does that better than the British.

No time of the year does our culture better show itself than these few weeks in December.

It shows itself without feeling forced, without fanfare, without a fuss.

What's more British than that?

Largely, that unwritten contract has kept us on the right track. Until recently, until mass immigration.

So, no.

I have no interest in the British changing our way of life to accommodate foreign and backward cultures. I just don't care. They can live how they like, in their own countries.

We have our way of doing things. I like it. The overwhelming majority of the British people like it.

Britain is a special place, with a special culture. We should make no apologies for that. I certainly won't.

Don't apologise, don't appease, don't change.

This is our home, and we're going to carry on.

🇬🇧 IS CIVIL WAR IN BRITAIN UNAVOIDABLE?

Elon says it's inevitable. And for once, the man who shot a car into space and saved free speech by buying Twitter might not be wrong. Britain isn’t headed toward civil war because people are racist, or bigoted, or paranoid. It’s because they’ve been lied to - again, and again, and again - and now they’re done pretending everything’s fine.

Here’s the setup: Illegal immigration is through the roof. Thousands arrive via small boats, with no documents, no vetting, no plans. They’re housed in hotels at taxpayer expense - nice ones, too - while Brits sleep in cars, sofa-surf, or languish on council waitlists that stretch into eternity. And if you dare question any of it, the entire establishment pounces: how dare you?

But the truth’s leaking out like a dinghy with a hole. People are being assaulted. Not by all migrants - of course not - but when you bring in tens of thousands without knowing who they are, some will be predators. And that risk, however small per capita, explodes in the aggregate. But pointing that out? Instant cancellation. Or worse - now they’re talking criminal charges under the Online Safety Act for “hate speech.” Translation: disagree with the narrative and we’ll shut you up.

People are being told it’s their moral duty to foot the bill, shut their mouths, and smile while the country unravels. And to make that compliance seamless, here comes the next brilliant idea: digital ID. Yes, nothing says freedom like having your identity, online speech, and financial access tethered to a government app. You know, for “security.” Just like every authoritarian regime in history said before things got really fun.

Brits aren’t stupid. They see the social contract being rewritten in real time. “We import chaos, you pay for it. We erase your speech, you clap. We lose control, you take the blame.” It’s 1984, except this time Winston Smith doesn’t even get the dignity of a telescreen - just a suspended social media account and a digital ID linked to his energy bill.

And the government? They wag their fingers at “right-wing extremists” while spending billions to warehouse strangers from who-knows-where with no plan to send them back. Deportations are a joke. The backlog of asylum claims is a national embarrassment. But don’t worry, someone’s just launched another taskforce. Maybe they’ll have matching lanyards.

People have had enough. Not of immigrants, per se - but of being gaslit by a political class that thinks they’re too stupid or too scared to notice the obvious. And when you push a population to the edge - tell them to shut up, fork over, and enjoy the ride - eventually, they push back. Hard.

Is civil war inevitable? Hopefully not. But civic trust is cratering, speech is being criminalized, identity is being digitized, and reality is being denied. At some point, the British public stops asking politely and starts asking furiously. And when that day comes, no amount of “fact-checking” or PR spin will stop the blowback.

The elites lit the fuse. The people are just waiting to see how long it burns.

We are approaching Net Zero's Berlin Wall moment.

[Lee Harris @LeeHarris]

If a govt *openly admits* that it's not prepared to put its own citizens first, a general election should be immediately triggered.

Keir Starmer has NO RIGHT to stand in front of our nation's flag.

Labour despise this country and they hate the British people even more.

[David Russell @DavidTruro]

@JuliaHB1 @AllisonPearson The UK I grew up in looked after its people. Now our elected politicians instead use our money to use the laws against us….imbeciles who feather their own nests at the expense of the public, ignore the wishes of their constituents and have no economic sense! God help us!

[Richard Tice MP 🇬🇧 @TiceRichard]

Wind farms hike your energy bill

So admits OFGEM

Net Stupid Zero making bills more expensive as bills increase again

£187 higher than July 24 - Labour lied about £300 fall

Some £2.7 billion subsidy paid in “balancing costs” & rising

If everyone who has been grateful for the NHS over the past 75 years followed and retweeted we’d reach a million by midnight

Please take just two seconds to show you’re right behind NHS staff

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

We’re trying to get as many followers as Rishi Sunak so we can show the government just how many people are prepared to fight for the NHS and its staff.

Please can you help by following us and retweeting this?
