imagine living in LA right now. it must feel helpless.
SF was bad. but we forced change. school board recall in 2022, chesa recall, lurie as mayor. now it feels like a different city.
@LexStepp I have been volunteering on Skid Row for years and the amount of gaslighting she has done to the community is insane. She has ignored so many people, went on the news and said that the animals on Skid Row are not neglected, meanwhile, we are rescuing dogs that are mutilated.
Moving out of LA County to Orange County is one of the best decisions my husband and I have ever made. Those who are looking to escape LA, the weather is just as nice, our DA prosecutes criminals and car & home insurance is cheaper.
@Twolfrecovery@TraciParkforLA Her whole post, and the comments, are full of delusion. None of the people there have any interest in self reflecting on why they lost 2-to-1. It’s all about MAGA, corporations, outspending, blah blah blah. They won’t even consider that it’s because their policies were rejected.
Instead of conceding with dignity and professionalism to @TraciParkforLA, Faizah Malik sent this undignified message and looks like a crybaby. CD11 (West LA) dodged a major bullet in an otherwise disappointing election overall in Los Angeles. Traci was the only bright spot.
Los Angeles wasn't invaded by our federal government; it was invaded by a flood of illegal aliens you and your party have illegally invited, facilitated, and defended.
The federal government is simply enforcing laws you disregarded, because political expediency is more important to your party than justice and public safety.
Los Angeles isn't a victim of abuse by ICE; It's a victim of abuse by the Democrat Party.
Ballot harvesting is the corruption built into CA's voting system. Many of these late arriving votes come from ballot harvesting operations where paid operatives go out & collect thousands of ballots in the final days & make sure they vote the "right" way. Fraud here is insane.
@Justin_G0rd0n I don’t think there’s election fraud happening, but I do think a legal form of vote manipulation is happening. Not with the slow count, with ballot harvesting. It’s legal but the way it’s being done it’s not right.
The BBC has just released a statement about their outrageous decision to exclude Restore Britain from yesterday’s Makerfield Question Time - explaining they consider ‘panel selection carefully’ and they ‘recognise the multi-party nature of UK politics’.
This is the most blatant example of BBC bias I have ever witnessed - it is scandalous.
They had the irrelevant Lib Dems and Tories, along with the Greens. We will outpoll all of them combined, easily.
Ask yourself. Why is the rotten establishment so desperate to censor Restore Britain?
Here is why.
Restore Britain’s policy platform is robust and unapologetic.
We will do what needs to be done.
- The largest deportation programme ever seen in Britain to remove those migrants living in our country illegally. The entire asylum system will be abolished. The boats will stop.
- Net negative immigration. Far more must leave than arrive.
- If a foreign national can’t speak English, lives in social housing, claims benefits, doesn’t work, hates our way of life - they go too. If millions go, millions go.
- Close entire visa routes from countries proven to supply us with illegals, criminals and sex pests. The immigration ‘Red List’. We will discriminate.
- Fairer spouse visas - so that British men and women can bring their spouses to Britain without the endless bureaucracy and cost currently inflicted on them.
- An overhaul of British agriculture that puts growing and farming at the heart of any policy for rural Britain. Food security is national security. Slash red tape, simplify payments, ease planning laws, encourage farm diversification and more. Crucially, help youngsters into agriculture. We will ensure a level playing field for British farmers.
- Restore Britain will force the British public sector will buy British - it will support British farmers, producers and small businesses.
- We will encourage and fund youngsters to take up apprenticeships and learn a proper skill instead of some nonsense university degree. Teach children at school the life skills they will actually need in modern Britain.
- An education system that teaches, respects and celebrates British history and the triumphant contribution our little island has made to the world.
- Businesses freed from crushing regulation, red tape and tax. Reward hard work. Let entrepreneurs enjoy their success.
- Lowest corporation tax in Europe. IR35 scrapped. VAT threshold doubled. HMRC brutally slashed back. Dividend thresholds raised.
- High streets restored. Safe, secure and welcoming. Business rates for small businesses abolished. Turkish barbers, vape shops and other suspicious businesses investigated. Graffiti cleaned, litter picked. Pavements fixed. We will make Britain clean again, and we will take pride in our communities again.
- We will implement free parking in select areas to drive back footfall from the retail parks and back into our town centres. Councils will be forced to accept common sense.
- Fly-tippers will be crushed under the law. It will not be tolerated. Foreigners indulging in the destruction of our countryside will be deported.
- Personal tax slashed. Trust families to spend their money, not the bureaucrats.
- Put pro-family policy at the heart of everything we do. If British families want to have more children, let’s use the power of the state to enable that. Make childcare more accessible and more affordable.
- Reform family courts - so that good, decent fathers, and mothers, are not kept away from their children for malicious reasons. This is important.
- Trust parents to make the best decisions for their families. A limited number of days for a term-time holiday for well-developed children. This is just common sense.
- Restore Britain will make Britain safe again. No-nonsense policing that does what it needs to do. Widespread stop and search back - accusations of racism will stop nothing. Brutal sentences for carrying a knife. Foreign criminals deported, third world sex pests removed before their feet can touch the ground.
- Welfare radically slashed back. Those who can work, will work. Litter picking, graffiti cleaning, whatever else. Don’t like it? No benefits. That simple.
- Support those Brits who genuinely need the help, particularly children, but under a Restore Britain Government the piss-take will end.
- A foreign policy that puts the British interest above all else - proudly and unapologetically. We won’t participate in never-ending foreign wars. We will act when, and only when, the British interest is served.
- Rebuild and rearm Britain. We will have a big stick, and we will wave it when we want.
- A comprehensive support system for British veterans - including fast tracked recruitment into immigration enforcement field roles.
- Arbitrary foreign aid targets that serve no British interests, gone.
- Restore Britain will reverse the creeping islamification of Britain - no burqas, sharia courts, halal slaughter and so on. Cousin marriage will be banned. If you want to sleep with your family, this is not the country for you. This is Britain, we do things our way.
- Exemptions for barbaric religious practices will be removed. Gladly.
- Anti-white racism, eradicated. No more DEI. The Equality Act repealed, along with the various iterations of the Race Relations Act.
- Self-defence rights restored. If an intruder tries to kill you in your home, and they end up dead? So be it. That’s their problem. Pepper spray legalised.
- End the war on motorists. Cut fuel duty, no more 20mph zones. Motorway speed limit raised to 80mph. Sort out our decaying road network.
- Biological reality respected. Men are men. Women are women. No amount of surgery will ever change that. That filth will be kept away from children.
- Inheritance tax abolished - for farms, for small businesses, for everyone. The scam will end. Death will no longer be taxed under a Restore Britain Government.
- An infrastructure first housing policy. Developers forced to fund proper infrastructure before a shovel goes in the ground. British homes for British families.
- A Government that prioritises building roads, bridges and projects HERE in Britain. Can you even imagine it?!
- We will purse a British first energy strategy. Net zero will be scrapped. Domestic energy production will be ruthlessly prioritised. Nuclear, oil/gas, fracking. We will make it happen.
- End the lockdown legacy. Inquiry into COVID vaccine harms, lockdown convictions quashed, a truly independent look at how that was all allowed to happen.
- No Digital ID, ever. Repeal the Online Safety Act. Protect free speech.
- Defund the rotten BBC. Make it a subscription service and let it wither on the vine.
- A binding referendum on the reintroduction of the death penalty for the most evil criminals. One of my favourites.
- A national strategy, working from the findings of the rape gang inquiry, to ruthlessly tackle and decapitate the national crime network of primarily Pakistani muslim sexual slavery, torture and murder.
- Restore Britain will end political Islam. Abolish postal voting except for those in genuine need. Remove voting rights for foreign nationals.
- Foreign language translation ended, in the NHS and beyond. You live in England, you speak English.
- The NHS will be restored as the NATIONAL health service. Serving British people as its first and only priority. It will accept ultra-high skilled migrants to work, it will not support millions of low-skilled migrants who contribute nothing, yet take so much.
- Free car parking for NHS staff, patients and visitors on tight permits. We all pay for the NHS, we shouldn’t be ripped off for the sodding parking too. Especially medical staff.
- Medical school caps will be demolished. We will allow talented young British men and women to train in medicine - the NHS will then be forced to employ them over foreign staff. We will prioritise our own people.
- Reclaim our fisheries - take back our seas and take back our fish. We will take back control. Finally.
- The quangocracy will end. Power will be returned to the people through their MPs. Parliament will be empowered.
- Restore Britain will crush the parasitic state. It will all be hacked back in the most spectacular fashion. Unlike anything Britain has seen before.
I could go on.
This is a platform that millions and millions of British men and women are agreeing with.
The BBC does not want you to hear about it. So please, tell your friends/family. Get the message out there.
There is finally a political party with the balls to put you all first - to put the British people first.
Restore Britain.
Various death threats received for criticising the rampant sexism within Islam - the police have been informed.
We will not be intimidated.
I said that there is finally a political party willing to stand up for our Christian values, and I meant it.
Restore Britain.
@Elex_Michaelson@LACountyRRCC@CNNTheStoryIs The whole postmark thing is a red herring. All of the ballots mailed on Election Day have arrived by now. There is just a huge backlog at the processing center, and they are not moving fast enough to clear it.
Based on current trajectory, the next mayor of Los Angeles is either going to be the lady who burned down our town, or a socialist cult member. I don’t have any confidence the Feds are going to find fraud.
It’s a really depressing prospect, and I’m disgusted that so many people around me live in a completely alternate reality where they think any of this is ok.
My short term hope now moves to finding a way to get Pacific Palisades to secede from the city of Los Angeles. It deserves better.
💔
We do not hate that California counts every vote.
We hate that California takes longer than every other state to count votes, even the states with universal mail plus post-Election Day acceptance.
We hate that the signature verification process that bottlenecks the counting is not an adequate safeguard against illegal voting.
We hate that voters have lost confidence in our elections and so voters do not want to participate in them.
And we hate that you oppose every common sense solution to these problems.
@emmarolyat Why do you people outside of Venice keep trying to foist Venice Dell on us Venice residents? We do not want it. Thank goodness Traci Park won. She will keep fighting against it for us.
This is Margaret Swan, a great-grandmother stabbed to death 20 TIMES in a random attack in the middle of the day on Atlanta’s public transit. Her murder was the second horrific attack on MARTA in a week.
I want ANSWERS from Atlanta. The number of assaults, robberies, and rapes on MARTA’s trains is MORE THAN THREE TIMES the national average.
MARTA has 15 DAYS from today to provide:
- Security spending
- Safety plans for riders and workers
- Detailed action strategy to prevent crime and fare evasion
Margaret’s family DESERVES ACCOUNTABILITY. No one should be forced to fear for their safety on public transit.
🚨 Santa Monica 🚨
One nonprofit got $37.5 million of your tax dollars (money the city does not expect to be repaid) to rehab a single 40-unit building. CCSM pays no property tax on these properties.
That’s $937,500 per apartment.
You can purchase a condo in Santa Monica for $575,000.
They bought it for $13.7 million in 2020 to purchase the building from our Housing Trust Fund. Plus, $23.8 million for rehab and relocation which was approved by ALL 7 current council members. They’re already $3 million over budget and asking for more. That's 5x of a private rehab job.
Meanwhile, our streets, sidewalks, parks, and infrastructure are crumbling with $450 million+ in unfunded and backloged projects.
This isn’t affordable housing. This is taxpayer-funded waste.
I’m Derrick Townsend and I’m running for Santa Monica City Council. I will push for full independent audits, a public-facing website showing every line item that you can dissect, and clawbacks for waste, fraud, and abuse. I'm fighting to protect your hard earned money.
Let's keep money in your pocket instead of paying off political favors.
