She’s right, of course. Mealtime is a big part of this problem. Lots of parents negotiate with their children, allow them to not eat what was served, or just serve them chicken nuggets or mac and cheese for every meal. They don’t teach table manners. They don’t require that their children ask to be excused before leaving the table. They let their kids use electronics at the table, etc. Complete disaster.
To give you an idea of scale, during the Rape of Nanking, Japanese soldiers were estimated to have raped 20 to 80 thousand Chinese women.
This report estimates at least 250 thousand women were victimized by these Muslim rape gangs.
Let me tell you guys another story before the Spain v Cape Verde game, it’s similar to this tweet I quoted.
There’s an Irish pub in New York, they were looking for a team to support at the World Cup because Ireland didn’t qualify.
There’s an Irish player in the Cape Verde team. His mother is Irish and his father is from Cape Verde, he’s the only Irish player at the world cup. Born and raised in Ireland, the current Captain of Shamrock Rovers. He’s represented Ireland at youth levels before switching to play for Cape Verde in 2019.
So, this Irish pub has decided to support Cape Verde at the World Cup because Cape Verde has the only Irish player at the World Cup. The guy’s name is PICO LOPES.
It gets more interesting. Immediately this pub announced it, it went viral. The owner of the pub has a brother actually working at Shamrock Rovers, then the person passed it on to the player, Pico Lopes, who reposted it and it went viral amongst the Cape Verde population.
Before you know it, some Cape Verde nationals in New York visited the pub, introduced the owner to some Cape Verde culture, and also the drink. Before you know it, the official drink in Cape Verde partnered with the pub, which means they’ll be selling Cape Verde drinks at the pub. Beautiful story.
If you’re in New York, you can visit the pub, called HONEY FITZ BAR.
Watch out for Pico Lopes also.
You have to question what the policing and justice system has come to that 12 year olds have to restort to carrying axes to protect themselves from sexual assault.
At the time I was hesitant to comment too deeply whilst not in possession of the facts, but now the fact is that the people she was 'threatening' have indeed been found guilty of attempting exactly what she was accusing them of.
With that in mind, I can say with no hesitation that her actions were completely justified.
We all know she had her moments but Nanna was an unforgettable woman. We’ll be holding a small memorial service for her this Friday at Kirkdale Community Centre
Here’s the problem. The liberal political class wants us to treat atrocities like Belfast as single, random, isolated incidents. “Yes, it’s horrific, but don��t overreact,” they say. “Let the police do their job. Justice will be delivered. Let’s remain united,” and so on.
But the public can see that such incidents *aren’t* random or isolated. They are, in fact, all the consequence of massive state failure in the area of asylum and immigration. All roads lead back there.
That’s why people are angry.. They are sick of the platitudes that get trotted out after each fresh incident. They don’t want to hear them anymore. They know that the decisions of establishment politicians have brought us to this current pass, and they don’t trust those same politicians to fix things, especially when some of them refuse to even recognise that the public’s anger is justified.
There has been a huge vibe shift in recent years. Imagine - God forbid - there were another 7/7. Does anyone think the public response would be anything like as restrained as it was then? We are in really dangerous territory.
The public don’t want flowers and candles and “Don’t let them divide us.” They want someone who says, “I recognise that the state has failed abjectly. We have allowed far too many people to settle in the country without knowing who they truly are. It has disrupted your communities. Your anger is justified. And I will do everything in my power to put things right.”
Any politician unwilling to articulate that message, fully and sincerely, is effectively sanctioning more years of growing social disharmony and discord. Things cannot heal until those in power recognise the extent of the problem and what it will take to fix it. And, on both counts, most of them don’t.
That’s why the next few years are going to be very, very turbulent.
