The obligation of subjects to the sovereign is understood to last as long, and no longer, than the power lasteth by which he is able to protect them.

Oh BRILLIANT! I love these interviews.

Stop what you are doing and watch London’s Deputy Mayor! … it is truly staggering that this role pays £148,000 a year and THIS was the best person for the job

And also … we really are this bad 🤡

Astonishing fact: Only 4% of all small boat arrivals have ever been removed from the UK; of those, 71% were Albanian.

Strip out Albania, and the UK has deported just 1 in 100 illegal small boat arrivals since 2018. This is how good your odds are if you make the trip.

710 illegal migrants arrived on Monday, the highest daily figure of the year.

Reform will stop this invasion once and for all.

[Alastair Hilton @London_W4]

In the last eight years, 200,000 illegal immigrants have arrived in Britain by dinghy. Each one costs the British taxpayer £40,000 per year. The average taxpayer pays £11,000 per annum in income tax. That means that around 800,000 British taxpayers are working ALL year, EVERY year, just to pay for those illegal immigrants. Their tax is not going towards fixing roads, defence of the country, schools, hospitals or anything else. It is ONLY going on paying for illegal immigrants to be here in Britain. And that’s only the ones that arrived by dinghy. Millions more just fly in, stay and live for free. You will never work hard enough or pay enough of your hard earned money to have a better life in this country. You will only work your whole life to pay for illegal immigrants to have a better life. Quite depressing really.

BREAKING:

The European Parliament just voted in favor of the Return Directive which will make it easier to start mass-deport illegal migrants.

Chants of “send them back echoed in the chamber after 418 MEPs voted in favor while 218 were against.

Once passed by the Council, the new regulation will establish a common, more efficient system for deporting illegal migrants, boosting the currently very low deportation rates of around 20% of those who have had their asylum application denied and issued a deportation order.

It will introduce:

- Mandatory cooperation with obligations and penalties: Individuals subject to a return decision must actively cooperate (such as providing documents, information, and remain available) with non-cooperation leading to detention.

- Extended detention periods: Detention can last up to 30 months to prepare a deportation.

- Mutual recognition of return decisions across the EU: A deportation order from one Member State will become more easily recognized and enforced in others, preventing migrants from evading deportation by moving between EU states.

- Return hubs in third countries: Allows transfers to “return hubs” in non-EU countries via agreements that respect human rights.

This expands options beyond direct return to the country of origin, enabling more flexible and potentially faster deportations.

- Faster enforcement and investigative tools: Shorter voluntary departure windows (generally ≤30 days, or immediate), quicker forced removals for non-compliance and security risks migrants and new powers for searches and seizures to gather evidence against illegal migrants combined with longer entry bans of up to 10 years and stricter rules for migrants classified as security threats who try to re-enter Europe after a previous deportation.

🚨The BBC caught red handed.

Remember the Question Time episode where illegal migrants were planted in the audience to lecture me and the country on our border policy?

We now have *confirmation* the BBC PLANTED there and they were COACHED on what to say by a charity pushing for open borders.

The CEO of this 'charity', Jenni Regan, was also in the audience and chosen to ask a question.

Note, when I formally complained to the BBC about this and explicitly asked them if the audience members were coached, the BBC refused to answer.

Now we know why.

One of these men who broke into the country began reading a statement warning against Britain leaving the ECHR, even featuring the Northern Ireland protocol!

One of them specifically attacked me and my family.

Because they had been coached to do so.

The BBC is morally bankrupt.

To deliberately plant men who broke into Britain illegally in the audience, allow them to be told what to say and let them launch into attacks on Reform and lecture the British people is disgusting behaviour.

To conceal it is even more outrageous.

They should apologise immediately.

So who’s going to be forced to resign their seat to make way for him, à la Burnham. Today’s Labour Party is increasingly reminiscent of a Venetian oligarchy. Or the Tories when they were posh and privileged.

The government institutions of the United Kingdom enabled and actively covered up the organized abuse of over 250,000 underaged victims over decades.

This is a terrible crime and is the worst human rights abuse of its citizens by any developed government in the 21st century.

I find it hard to fathom what would have happened if I'd asked for the taxpayer to pay for my housing when I lived in China or Korea. It would not even compute as a request in their systems.
