It will remember the people who did it anyway.

The Pakistani Muslim mayor of London campaigns on ‘inclusivity’ and ‘diversity’, claiming London is ‘for everyone.’
Meanwhile, he’s on a pilgrimage in Mecca, a city where ONLY Muslims are allowed. Non-Muslims are forbidden to enter for being ‘impure.’
Hypocrisy knows no bounds.
I’m not really religious but I’d be up for this. Our country is losing its identity and values. We are no longer proud to be BRITISH 🇬🇧 this is a good reminder of who we are!
🚨NEW: Reform UK councillors in Kent have put forward rule changes that will allow for the reading of the lord's prayer and singing of the national anthem before council meetings
@PreetKGillMP How can you sleep at night? How can you support this man? Your job is to serve the public and they are telling you what they want. You people are just not listening!!
Last night, I was contacted by a former roommate of Keir Starmer.
After our conversation, I now believe that he is the most dangerous Prime Minister Britain has ever had.
Here’s what he told me:🧵
My husband and I talk about this all the time, several uber drivers here in London have informed us of their multiple wives and having 4,5,6 children. All Muslim. None of their wives work either. And I’m out busting my butt 12-15 hours/day to pay for them all!
I’ve told this story before but I had an uber driver tell me that he had 3 wives and they all have 2 kids and claim housing separately though 2 of them live together, so they sublet the extra flat. I had people tell me this was impossible because polygamy is illegal, sure man
If Keir Starmer does resign then at least his kids can go back to having a normal life…like using a multi-millionaire’s £14m penthouse to revise for their school exams.
