🇬🇧 The Sudanese man accused of the Belfast knife attack didn't sit a single interview before Britain granted him asylum.
He ticked through a 10-page form, and the Home Office waved him in.
Hadi Alodid was handed a 5-year refugee visa in September 2023 under the fast-track scheme Rishi Sunak set up to clear a backlog of 92,000 cases.
Staff nicknamed it the "grant factory."
Civil servants had warned back in 2023 that the scheme would fail to flag "bad guys" including terrorists and serious offenders, who would get the right to remain rather than face deportation.
Alodid crossed from the Republic of Ireland into Northern Ireland through the Common Travel Area, an "unlocked back door to the United Kingdom," which has no identity checks.
Security minister Dan Jarvis says he's already started internal talks about weaknesses in the arrangement.
If someone had actually sat across from him, they might have seen how unstable he was.

It turns out Africa and the Middle East weren’t dangerous and dirty because of colonialism or oppression but because they were full of barbarians who make it that way
The people are the problem and when you import them they turn your country into their country
Karmelo Anthony’s supporters are now threatening to riot and burn down cities after he was found guilty.
Riots for what?
Do y’all think it’s okay for a Black person to kill a white person with no consequences?
That is racist.
Somebody lost their son. Somebody lost their child. Austin Metcalf is never coming home.
The only people who should be angry, sad, heartbroken, and devastated right now are Austin Metcalf’s parents.
They lost their son.
This should have never been turned into a race issue. It was not about Black versus white.
Wrong is wrong.
You do not get to stab somebody to death and then have people threaten to riot because justice was served.
Karmelo Anthony was found guilty.
Justice was served.
On a hillside this summer, a man will pay good money to take the coat off a sheep, then watch that coat earn him almost nothing at all.
This is the wool trade now. A thing his great grandfather built a life on, worn down to a chore he runs at a loss.
So look at the maths square in the face. It costs him around two pounds to shear one ewe. The fleece that comes off her, even now, in the best year for a decade, brings back about a pound and a half if she is a fine crossbred. If she is a hill sheep, a Welsh Mountain or a Swaledale, he might get thirty pence for the whole fleece. British Wool says the price would have to nearly double again just to cover the shearing.
So every sheep he clips, he loses on. And he has to clip every one.
A sheep left in her fleece overheats, cannot walk right, and gets eaten alive by maggots. The wool has to come off, for her sake, whatever it is worth. He pays, quite literally, for the privilege of being kind to his own animals.
Now feel the weight of what we have let go.
Wool once made this country rich. Whole towns were built on the back of it, and the great wool churches still standing across the Cotswolds were paid for with it. To this day the Lord Speaker of the House of Lords sits on a woolsack, set there centuries ago so nobody in the room would forget where England's wealth came from.
A fleece was worth fourteen pounds a kilo in the 1950s. The wool cheque, in his father's day, paid the rent for the year.
Today it will not cover the diesel to deliver it.
And so, in farmyards across the country, men who would rather not are quietly burning the fleeces off their own sheep, because a fire is cheaper than the trip to the depot. A material so fine that a kingdom was built on it, going up in smoke in the yard because nobody will pay a pound for it.
And what did we reach for instead. Plastic. Most of our clothes are now spun from oil, polyester and acrylic and nylon, shedding tiny threads into the sea with every wash, into the fish, into our own blood. It will not rot for generations.
So here we stand. A fibre that grows back every spring on nothing but grass and rain, that warms a child and then feeds the soil when its work is done, burning unwanted in a field.
While we dress ourselves, head to foot, in the very oil it was meant to spare us.
The sheep on that hill is still growing the finest coat in the world. We simply stopped being worthy of it.
Karmelo Anthony's main GiveSendGo has been taken down.
Another one has just popped up today, however.
Guess who started it? Dominique Alexander. With the funds going to Karmelo's mother.
It's all a gigantic grift.
Thune and the GOP Senate are using to stop Trump…
Parliamentarian to stop agenda.
Zombie Filibuster to stop securing elections.
Blue Slip tradition to stop filling judicial positions.
Pro Forma sessions to stop making recess appointments.
Denying constituents.
Traitors.

Dr. Sheetal Kanar Kumar, an obstetrician and gynecologist who operated Advanced Healthcare for Women in Stuart, Florida, was arrested and indicted on 26 counts of healthcare fraud.
Between 2014 and 2017, she submitted approximately $926,000 in fraudulent claims to Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers for treatments and services—specifically related to incontinence—that were never actually provided.
A federal jury convicted her of 23 counts of healthcare fraud. She was subsequently sentenced to prison and ordered to pay restitution.
The same people who believe the apache was shot down by a drone believe Charlie was shot with a 30.06
Pattern recognition
Charlie and the apache do have something in common.
Both were taken out by Israel to push war with Iran.
The great noticing
Henry Nowak told Hampshire Police "I can't breathe" NINE TIMES and "I've been stabbed" FOUR TIMES.
Hampshire police didn't believe him because he was a white British lad and they thought he said something racist.
"I don't think you have, mate!"
Hampshire Police then 'tried to smear Henry Nowak as aggressor' just THREE DAYS after his murder even though *they had evidence this was a lie*.
They were caught trying to cover it up and influence the trial.
Why hasn't Alexis Boon, the Chief Constable of Hampshire police been sacked and lost his pension yet?
This VILE man is not fit to wear the uniform.
GET HIM OUT NOW!
LAWFUL REBELLION
YOUR RIGHT UNDER MAGNA CARTA
Under article 61 of Magna Carta 1215 (the founding document of our Constitution) we have a right to enter into lawful rebellion if we feel we are being governed unjustly. Contrary to common belief our Sovereign and her government are only there to govern us and not to rule us and this must be done within the constraint of our Common Law and the freedoms asserted to us by such Law, nothing can become law in this country if it falls outside of this simple constraint. Article 61 shows quite clearly who really holds the power in this country, that being quite simply us the people; we have Sovereignty not any Parliament and nor can this be taken from us by any Parliament who claim to have taken the people's Sovereignty.
This is how we solve our political woes and take our country back.
Only we can save ourselves.

REP. BURCHETT ON HIS TALIBAN FUNDING BILL: “IF THEY’RE NOT DOING IT, WHY WON’T THEY PASS IT?”
@RepTimBurchett is blasting the Senate for failing to act on his bill to stop U.S. taxpayer dollars from reaching the Taliban - nearly a year after it passed the House.
When told that Senate Majority @LeaderJohnThune said he hadn't seen the bill and that NO VOTE is currently scheduled, Burchett wasn't buying the excuses.
“$40 million a week... and if they're not doing it, then why the heck won't they just pass it anyway?”
Burchett suggested too many people have a stake in keeping the money flowing and questioned why the Senate continues to delay action.
When asked by @Alisonintheknow whether he believed Thune's claim that he hadn't seen the bill, Burchett replied:
“I personally asked him about it.”
“I just don't think he cares. It's not a top priority.”
The bill passed the House. The question now is: Why is it collecting dust in the Senate while millions continue flowing into Afghanistan?
Thomas Massie lost and Lindsey Graham won.
If you still believe that the Republican Party is for small limited government, individual freedom, and no new wars then you have the IQ of a potato.
🚨OH. MY. GOSH!!!

Please DO NOT share or repost the video that is starting to circulate of a few of Austin’s friends being harassed as they walked from the courthouse to their car. The video clearly shows their faces and identifying details of the vehicle.
According to those involved, individuals screamed that they were glad Austin was dead and followed and filmed them from the courthouse steps all the way to their car.
The incident has been reported to law enforcement, and I have provided the identity of the streamer involved to the family.
This broke me when i read this...
