Keir Starmer’s ‘safety’ crackdown sounds less like protecting the public and more like silencing dissent.
First, it’s harsher online speech laws next, it’s pushing for X to be banned altogether.
Labour has no answers on crime, the economy, or immigration, but they sure know how to censor, control, and suppress criticism.
This isn’t about safety. It’s about power.
@HMatrixAgent@MyArrse Yes, it was, and it's still not true. The court itself stated that the case couldn't proceed to trial due to missteps by the prosecutors.
@simon_watkins@RupertLowe10 If BBC content was as popular as you claim, it wouldn’t need to be funded by a mandatory tax under threat of prosecution. Let’s scrap the license fee and see how it competes in a free market then we’ll find out just how many people actually want to pay for it.
@RachelReevesMP The only things growing under you are government waste, immigration numbers, and the tax burden on working Brits. Spare us the slogans your ‘growth’ is just more state control and less money in our pockets
Spare us the fake outrage, Humza. The only people who stayed silent for years about grooming gangs were Labour run councils, police forces, and the CPS under Keir Starmer all too scared of ‘cultural sensitivities’ to protect victims.
Farage and Reform have been calling this out for years, while your party and its allies ignored, downplayed, and covered up these crimes. You don’t get to rewrite history now.
Also, let’s be clear this Glasgow case, while horrific, is not one of the biggest grooming gangs in the UK. The Rotherham scandal alone involved 1,400 victims over decades. This was a paedophile ring, not an organised network like those seen in Rotherham, Rochdale, and Telford. But I guess inflating the numbers suits your narrative.
@RupertLowe10 Our country isn’t a charity for everyone; it’s time to protect our own and make sure resources are reserved for those who’ve earned their place here. It’s about time we put the needs of the British people first.
@reformparty_uk Meanwhile, actual criminals roam free, and the government wonders why public trust in policing is collapsing. No wonder Prevent failed the British public with Axel Rudakubana. The Home Office doesn’t need ‘reform’ it needs a complete overhaul
Hitler did call himself a socialist he led the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP) and used state control over industry, media, and personal freedoms. He also took inspiration from Edward Bellamy, whose socialist ideas influenced the structure of Nazi policies, from state controlled economics to nationalist propaganda.
I will not allow this to happen… WE will not allow this to happen! Ongoing plans and strategies are being put in place (fear not) and my shield is well and truly reattached to my left forearm… The weapons of choice I’ll use in my right hand to lead this charge will not be those of which I’m accustomed but instead will lay within my personal skillset and knowledge of safety, security and unity, also within the strength of the team (SMEs) that I build around me but predominantly within the patriotism & passion of the people. If it’s hope that’s needed whilst we hold the line then please let me reassure you that my eyes are well and truly locked in and laser focused on 2028! 🫡🇬🇧
Absolutely spot on, Jenny. It’s outrageous that taxpayers are funding lavish pensions while we’re seeing local services collapse. The amount spent on housing migrants in expensive hotels instead of investing in our communities is just the tip of the iceberg. It's time councils were held accountable for their reckless spending our hard-earned money should be used for the benefit of UK citizens, not lining the pockets of the public sector elite. It's time to stop the waste and put the people first.
@GoodwinMJ You're spot on. The elite are completely out of touch, labelling concerns like policing and mass immigration as "far-right" just to shut down debate. Meanwhile, issues like grooming gangs are ignored. It's time for real change.
Labour’s Britain:
🔹️Criticise the government? You’re censored.
🔹️Struggle to pay bills? You’re taxed more.
🔹️Enter the UK illegally? You get hotel accommodation.
They punish the law-abiding while rewarding lawbreakers. This isn’t ‘fairness’ it’s an agenda. And people are waking up.
Every Latino who voted for Trump is in the U.S. legally they followed the rules, worked hard, and earned their place. Meanwhile, those coming in illegally are bypassing the system, draining resources, and committing crimes at higher rates.
It’s not ‘horrific’ to enforce borders it’s justice for those who came the right way. Maybe take a hard look at the real problem instead of smearing legal voters who want law and order.
Nice attempt at rewriting reality. The Glasgow abusers were rightly sentenced to life monitoring with Orders for Lifelong Restriction, meaning they will never be free from supervision and could be imprisoned for life. They collectively received 93 years in prison, with sentences ranging from 8 to 20 years unlike grooming gang offenders who got months or a slap on the wrist.
No one covered up the Glasgow case out of fear of 'racism' yet that’s exactly what happened in Rotherham, Rochdale, and Telford. Authorities ignored victims for years because holding certain perpetrators accountable was deemed ‘too sensitive.’
The real ‘concerted campaign’ is the one that let thousands of girls be abused for decades while police and councils looked the other way. Maybe ask why those cases were buried instead of playing identity politics.
Starmer’s CPS refused to prosecute grooming gangs because they were afraid of ‘racial tensions.’ That’s not opinion it’s documented. In 2009, under Starmer’s watch, the CPS refused to prosecute a Rotherham abuser despite police urging, saying it was ‘not in the public interest.’ Years later, survivors demanded an apology for CPS failures, and Starmer conveniently avoided responsibility.
He ignored it for the same reason Labour still downplays it today because confronting the truth doesn’t fit their narrative. Now, instead of addressing past failures, he’s using Southport as a distraction. So tell me, do you want facts or just to defend the indefensible?
Yes, dignified. Deporting criminals swiftly and efficiently is what a functioning government should do. Trump made sure Colombia took them back instead of leaving them to roam free in the US. Meanwhile, under Biden, illegal migrants including criminals are allowed to flood in with zero deterrent.
These flights aren’t just about illegal entry; they’re removing serious criminals homicide convicts, sex offenders, drug traffickers, and gang members. ICE has confirmed that many deportees have violent criminal records, including sex crimes against minors. If you think deporting them isn’t ‘dignified,’ what’s your alternative? Let them stay?
@ContentCritic2 @benwainman @PolitlcsUK@Telegraph You admit Biden is corrupt, yet you still align with the ideology that put him in power. If progressivism led to this level of corruption, maybe it’s time to rethink what ‘progress’ actually looks like. Also, who's the yank? Projection is a hell of a thing.
Tom, you’re oversimplifying things. Gildas calling the Britons the “House of Israel” isn’t just biblical metaphor medieval sources like Geoffrey of Monmouth and Welsh migration myths linked the Britons to the Near East long before the British-Israelite theory took off. Even Irish legends speak of migrations from Scythia, Egypt, and the East, suggesting an older tradition of an external origin.
The idea of Israelites reaching Europe isn’t as wild as you make it sound. After the Assyrian exile (722 BCE), Israelite groups migrated north, and Jewish traders were present in Roman Britain. But more importantly, Phoenician traders who were Semitic definitely reached Britain by 1200 BCE, trading tin in Cornwall and Wales. That’s a historically confirmed Semitic presence in Britain, predating the Reformation by over 2,000 years.
Genetically, it’s not unreasonable to find traces of Near Eastern ancestry in Britain. Some Y-DNA haplogroups (J1, J2) and maternal lineages show minor but real connections to the Eastern Mediterranean. The Caucasus Hunter-Gatherer (CHG) component in Proto-Indo-Europeans also had links to the Near East, meaning some ancient British ancestry could carry distant Semitic influence.
Dismissing this as a “trash model” ignores how genetics actually works reference populations matter. The British-Israelite idea wasn’t just a 19th-century invention, it had medieval and Tudor-era precedents. While Britain obviously isn’t a direct biblical land, the idea of small scale Semitic influence through trade, migration, or lost tribes isn’t as absurd as you’re making it out to be.
