I see more and more burqas in London, and beyond. I detest it, to be honest.
Oppressive, dangerous, un-British.
It is simply not how we do things in Britain.
We should ban the burqa, we should ban the niqab.
@JamesMelville Just waiting to see him in the Orange boiler suit.
£30bn is the lower of estimates of the damage to London by the Luftwaffe in today's money.
Katie Hopkins explains the Islamic takeover of America
- Muslims are imported into areas of America
- Foreign money comes in to rapidly build a bunch of mosques
- A leader is established in each Mosque that tells the entire Muslim community how to vote
- They run for office and get elected
“They pack an area with Muslims. You've seen this happen. You're watching it happen in Minnesota, in Minneapolis, in Dearborn. You are seeing this happen.
They bring them in, they pack them in. They put up mosques to facilitate them. In flows the funding.
Suddenly you've got mosques putting funding in and an imam that's in charge of a densely packed population. Now they have political power. People are going to vote according to what the imam tells them to do.
They are voting according to religion instead of any policy or political belief.
It's why we have the Islam Party in Belgium. Their policies are segregation on buses, halal and face covering. They even won a couple seats. This is where we're headed.
When they come to mobilize in future time when this conflict wraps up, ramps up as it surely will. The mosques are where these people will mobilize from. Do not mistake mosques for churches. They are not places of worship. They are places of organization and mobilization”
Don't ever recall school being shut in the 50's & 60's, some kids & the odd teacher from remote villages occasionally didn't make it due to blocked roads but everyone else was there. If the weather was more frost than snow then the fun was in making long ice slides on the way there.
Yes we did have a couple of odd teachers.
The woodwork teacher was a fan of the original Morgan 3 wheel sports car, couldn't afford to buy one & so made one out of wood. Nothing rough, laminated, polished, looked like a quality piece of furniture with a motorcycle engine bolted on the back.
Another had been a train driver until they phased out steam, he didn't fancy the diesel engines & qualified as a teacher. Used to climb big hills with Sir Edmund Hillary. Together with headmaster used to take boys out hill walking & climbing. They took a group of us to Snowdonia in December. Freezing weather but fabulous fun.
So long as there was no more than a couple of feet of snow playtime was always outdoors although exceptions were made for some of the girls.
If the heating was ever of then pullovers & coats were on. Place to be in real cold was in the Victorian annex which had coal fireplaces in every classroom. Nothing beats a good fire in winter!
Sentiments of Venezuelans
I’m going to say this once, and I don’t care if it makes people uncomfortable.
If you have never lived in Venezuela
If you did not grow up there
If you did not watch your country collapse in real time
If you did not stand in food lines
If you did not watch your parents lose everything they built
If you did not have to leave your home with nothing
Then shut the fuck up.
You do not have an opinion.
Your opinion does not matter.
And you don’t get to lecture anyone about what’s happening there.
I’m Venezuelan.
I lived there most of my life until my early twenties.
I watched my country go from a functioning democracy to full blown socialism right in front of my eyes.
This is not politics to me.
This is trauma.
Before socialism, Venezuela was not perfect, but it worked.
There was trade.
There was money coming in.
There was investment from the US.
There were jobs.
There was food.
There was medicine.
My family had five businesses.
We had our home
We had investments.
We had a future.
Then the government started nationalizing everything.
Private companies were taken.
Foreign investors were pushed out.
Imports were blocked.
Price controls destroyed production.
Corruption exploded.
And everything died.
Not slowly.
Violently.
People didn’t suddenly become poor because of “capitalism” or “the US” or whatever bullshit slogan people like to repeat online.
They became poor because socialism destroyed incentives, destroyed production, destroyed trust, and destroyed hope.
People today in Venezuela are not debating ideology.
They are trying to survive.
They are trying to find food.
Trying to find medication.
Trying to keep their families alive.
So when I see people in the West posting from comfortable homes, full fridges, stable currencies, and safe streets talking about “imperialism” or “US bad” or “Trump this or that”
No.
It’s not complicated.
You’re just ignorant.
China is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Russia is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Cartels are not rebuilding Venezuela.
They are stealing.
They are extracting.
They are draining what’s left.
If the US comes in and reinvests
If refineries get rebuilt
If infrastructure gets restored
If imports open back up
If food, water, and medicine become accessible again
If people can work and earn with dignity
Then yes.
Let them take all the oil they want.
Because at least something gets built instead of destroyed.
This is something to celebrate.
Not because it’s perfect.
But because for the first time in a long time, there is hope.
Hope that families can eat.
Hope that people don’t have to flee their country.
Hope that Venezuela can function again.
If you’ve never lived through a country collapsing
If you’ve never watched socialism destroy everything around you
If you’ve never had to leave your home because staying meant starvation
Then again
Shut the fuck up.
This isn’t theory.
This isn’t politics.
This is lived experience.

A big Restore Britain investigation in 2026 will be exploring how much influence foreign nationals are exerting on British elections.
I am very much of the view that our voting should be for Brits only.
Foreigners should not be allowed to vote, or stand, in our elections.
Shamima Begum left the UK in 2015 and is now portrayed as a victim who was groomed.
In 2017, the Manchester Arena bombing murdered an eight year old child and 21 others.
In 2019, while asking to be allowed back into Britain, Begum said that atrocity was justified. Let that sink in. This was not confusion. This was belief.
So while she was actively trying to gain re entry to the UK, was she still being groomed then? Because at that point she was publicly justifying the murder of British children and concert goers. Those are not the words of someone confused or controlled. Those are the words of someone who still believed in the cause.
Anyone still arguing she deserves to return is choosing sympathy over the victims and ideology over justice. I see it very differently.
@JohnCleese Sounds like you're taking too much John.
I've been on aspirin & other cvd meds for years & don't have that problem.
Try eating your greens, vitamin k promotes coagulation.
@SangitaMyska@georgegalloway NOW LET ME TRANSLATE:
"He's going after illegitimate governments"!
"OH crap, He's coming here next isn't he"!
"Wonder if there's still time to make up with Vlad"?
