She came to the UK 40 years ago and loved its diversity but lives in Piddington which is about 95% white, about the same as the country was when she came here in 1985.

When they use the word my "community", it means my people who are Somali and Muslims.

They are ethonationalists.

[Jack Jewell @JackxJewell]

I’m going to keep posting what I feel is an entirely reasonable, natural, and fair view on this, shared by most human beings on planet earth:

1. You can be okay and positive about certain level of immigrants being added to your population.
2. You can still not want your majority group which has survived for centuries in your country to not become a minority.

If Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, Japan, Nigeria expressed this view, shitlibs would have zero problem. These countries would have a right to “self-determination” and to not be “colonised” by whites.

I’ll say it again - whether you are for or against rapid demographic change, it is wholly undemocratic. The public always voted against these policies but were given the opposite.

If you can’t even understand but respectfully disagree with those concerned by this, you are ultimately anti democracy. And you also represent yourself as a reductive, black/white thinker.

The story goes:
- Public: we want less immigration
- Political party: we will give you far less
- Public: we elected you and now you have only increased it
- Political party / media: You are a racist.

This is like an abusive relationship 👆🏻

Hard to calculate the loss to UK economy and social capital by allowing 100,000 homes in central London be occupied by third world layabouts rather than by the kind of elite professionals who would otherwise live there in a free market.

Aside from how much the taxpayer loses on housing Somalis and Nigerians and so on, there’s a loss of tax revenue, professional networking, consumer spending, social and cultural dynamism, etc. Quite why European governments are so determined to fill their cities with the most economically inactive/criminally active peoples on earth I’ll never understand.

[Dominic Frisby @DominicFrisby]

In 2008 the UK paid the same price for natural gas as the US.

Today we pay eight times more.

Yet another example of how badly this country is and has been led.

If govt had just stayed out of it, this would not be the case. But no. They had to get involved.

[Josh Howie @joshxhowie]

And so we reach the end game.

@adamparsons Shows how desperate the international media are.

[Mike Jones @technopopulist]

If you privatise social housing in central London, you can unlock millions in productivity gains and stop the nasty Green-Labour social housing aristocracy from sucking the blood out of the capital.

You’d also create a more competitive playing field in local elections, where simply pinning a red rosette on a donkey wouldn’t be enough to win anymore.

If politicians don’t get a grip on this, London will become less of the proverbial golden goose that lays the golden egg.

And you don’t need to privatise it all in one fell swoop. Just privatise social housing when it becomes vacant. Use the proceeds to build more social homes in less productive areas, where land and construction are cheaper, provided the money is properly ring-fenced.

[SK Tedeschi @skedeschi]

As the Holborn and St Pancras Election looms, I looked at some of the stats.

44% of houses are social housing
Only 28% of households have anyone working
44.5% of residents weren't born here.

London is like two different worlds really. We created such a strange capital.

[Dux @DuxVul]

Because they are the council house aristocracy

The new London landed gentry

They can live in neighbourhoods people who make £100k can only dream of living in

[Migration Watch @MigrationWatch]

Immigrants born in just four countries occupy over 100,000 social homes in London.

[Alex Gandler @AlexGandler]

I am only now seeing this footage of the celebrations held in the United Kingdom in the immediate aftermath of the murder of 1,200 Israelis.

It is a profound moral disgrace, and what we witnessed then appears to have grown into a much wider movement.

The past three years cannot be understood without remembering those first days after the massacre. While Israelis were still identifying their dead, people were taking to British streets to jeer and celebrate.

That same hatred has since been visible on repeated marches through London, used to advance political agendas rooted in authoritarian regimes and Islamist extremism.

This is deeply disturbing footage. It captures the moment when all the ugliness came to the surface.

[Essex Patriot @Essex_Patriot]

It doesn't pay to work anymore

CRAZY NUMBERS 🇬🇧

UK is finished. 8 years to build 30 trains. In the country that invented trains. It’s never been more over

[Joo @JoosyJew]

For comparison, last year 20 Israelis were killed by Palestinian attackers originating in the West Bank.

[Jacob L @JacobL1994_]

Slave morality.

There is no relationship between strength and righteousness, whether positive or negative. Sometimes the strong are good and the weak are bad, or vice versa.

[Charlotte Salomon @SalomonSoup]

When did this become controversial?

A taxpayer living outside London, commuting in every day, should not be expected to fund someone on benefits to live in Knightsbridge.

Kemi is absolutely correct. That exchange was bizarre.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

The UK sanctions Israel over a few apartments outside Jerusalem while handing $100 million in British taxpayer money to the Palestinian Authority, which literally has a policy of paying suicide bombers.

Make it make sense.

[Burnside @BurnsideWasTosh]

Uncomfortable fact:

The personal allowance should be reduced, drastically, and benefits frozen in nominal terms for the next 5 years.

The over taxation kf the top decile has been an act of colossal self harm. Taking money off rich people to give to poor people is the worst idea conceived of, despite how it might make little Lineker twitch.

Rich people will invest and grow their capital, reducing reliance of the State and employing people. Poor people will just consume. 10 years later the money kept by a rich person will have grown in value, the money given to a poor person will have been spent on a tattoo of a potato.

[Daniel Rubenstein @paulrubens]

Miliband confirms his view that it is “unlawful” for Jews to be living in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem. He says the UK will examine the “economic relationships” that exist with businesses in the Jewish Quarter and may sanction them. https://t.co/mczvZBrxBt
