For those of you who don’t speak Italian, I’m going to translate just some of the headlines that I’ve read in the last 48 hours from the country that I live in, Italy:
Avezzano: Sexual violence against a 16 year old, judge releases the Egyptian attacker and says “no precautionary needs were identified”
Bressanone: Tunisian migrant stabs a 20 year old to steal his bike
Bussolengo: Shooting, 30 year old injured, 17 year old Egyptian migrant arrested
Milan: Attempted murder, kidnapping, and sexual violence against an Austrian man, three Egyptians arrested
Milan, again: Gang rape of an Erasmus student, manhunt for the aggressors
Milan, once again: Polish model beaten and nearly gang raped by a group of migrants in the street, saved by an Italian man.
Udine: Foreign minor with covered face robs a supermarket while holding a gun
Terni: Two Tunisians arrested for assaulting a man and steal his money and bike
Viareggio: Violent robberies, three North Africans arrested
A 50 year old Albanian man defending an elderly man mocked by North Africans, was hit with a stone and left in a coma.
…….I won’t get into the politics of this. All I will say is that we absolutely do not have and cannot live this way any more.
This is not the Italy we haven known and loved for years. Something has to change. Now.
Firstly, Alina Burns’s crimes are absolutely heinous and should obviously be condemned.
But I don’t understand why, or how, the Left still cannot understand the Right?
The Right see the nation like a house. They accept that there will always British nationals living in the house who will commit atrocious crimes, and that is something we have to deal with and guard against. However, when it comes to foreign nationals, we can choose who enters our house and who doesn’t (or who is forced to leave). Therefore, it’s different when horrific crimes are committed by foreigners, because that has been an explicit choice - it was a choice to let them, it was a choice to allow them to remain.
If the nation is a house, then many believe only the best behaved and brightest should be allowed entry, and thus crimes by British nationals should outweigh crimes by foreigners, massively.
Alina Burns being in the UK sadly isn’t a choice for us, unlike the way this Sudanese man being in the UK IS a choice. That’s the difference. And that’s why awful crimes by foreigners, triggers those on the Right more. It’s a choice.
“They make no financial sense”🐖

Now imagine multi-generation pig farmers going out of biz due to Corporatism,abusive food supply chains…happening now whilst gov look away…
There’s a lot I’d take exception to here, but
I’ll highlight two:
(1) the misinformation
Palantir does not own NHS data. We cannot use it, sell it, or move it. It stays inside each NHS trust, under NHS control, and the contract is the NHS’s to end whenever it likes. You may be right about NHS data being a goldmine, but it is not one Palantir can monetise, or would want to.
(1) the double standard
Your chief concern seems to be that Palantir’s contract with NHS is akin to letting “a foreign, state-adjacent company into critical national infrastructure.” You should apply this concern consistently then.
Yesterday, NHS England announced that 505,000 staff will get Microsoft 365 Copilot. The NHS also runs on Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services and Google. All are US firms. All have the same “deep roots in US defence and immigration enforcement” you mention with regards to Palantir. If US ownership, and having certain US government clients, are disqualifying tests, then surely these should apply equally to every such company?
Either US technology in the NHS is a sovereignty problem (in which case maybe the relevant news today is the 505,000-seat deal signed with Microsoft). Or it isn’t, in which case perhaps singling out Palantir isn’t really about sovereignty at all?
25 years of never earning a penny you didn’t give him through tax.
Absolute zero real world experience.
Possible next PM. Jesus wept.
Andy Burnham. Andy. Fucking. Burnham.
A man who has spent thirty years with his hand in the public till and his eye on the mirror, who has never once in his entire adult life had to worry about where next month’s money was coming from because next month’s money was always, always, coming from you.
Prime Minister. He wants to be Prime Minister. A man whose entire preparation for managing the sixth largest economy on earth consists of running buses in Salford and once making a Chancellor look bad on the evening news. That’s it. That’s the CV. That’s what we’re being asked to get excited about.
He’s never hired anyone with his own money. Never lost a contract. Never had a customer tell him to get stuffed. Never stayed up until the small hours wondering if the payroll clears and his staff can pay their rent or feed their families. The concept of economic risk to Andy Burnham is entirely theoretical. It is an abstraction. It is something that happens to other people in constituencies he visits before elections.
What he has done - and credit where due, he’s done it with genuine artistry - is spend three decades constructing a man. A specific, careful, field-tested human adult man. Caring but tough. Northern but serious. Principled but electable. A man who emotes on cue, lands in the news cycle like he was dropped from a helicopter by PLMR, genuinely sincere. Scheduled sincerity. Every fifteen minutes, on the hour. Every hour.
The Hillsborough stuff is real. Fine. One moment of genuine courage in thirty years of professional positioning. One. And it’s still doing press tours.
PM. Jesus.
I’m so tired, man.
