Yes, Freddy, we’ll be long gone though by the time immigrant numbers start overtaking our own but our children’s children will grow up in a very different world. If you highlight this problem, you are immediately shot down as a racist, supremacist whatever and this is usually from the left. In an odd re-enactment, what is happening in Italy is exactly what happened in ancient Rome. Roman society went into a decline and the barbarians invaded. End of Roman Empire.

I think the barbarians were welcomed, because by that time the Roman Empire had become hopelessly corrupt? Ethnic minorities in the UK tend to be socially conservative and wary of initiatives such as the COVID vaccinations, so the pro-immigration lobby should be careful what they wish for.

I stand corrected re Romans and barbarians in that case. I think it did start with attacks though. The Roman Empire contracted. They abandoned Britain to counter attacks by the Hun and various other military endeavours in Gaul and the Roman population became depopulated. The current Italian populations is therefore an interesting mix of Northern European ancestry but the huge army of migrants waiting to cross the Med does not bode well. It will be a testing summer.

The immigrants are not Western, and not Christian. They are alien to our way of life. Many of them claim to be Muslim which at the extreme is a medieval, ghastly anti-human cult which seeks the death of farquhars. It has no place in Britain save for those we already have to put up with.

A starter for 10: As part of Toby Young’s efforts to bring truth to the masses in the early 21st Century, he founded a popular mainstream journalism site, named Daily Sceptic. In the now-famous BTL section, where many well-established and respected wise people still to this day converse about how close Western Society came to terminal decline, it was first noted that MHRA was an anagram of HARM. What was Jenny Harries’ inside leg measurement?

It took two years and three months for the death of Dr Stephen Wright to be officially acknowledged as being due to a Covid vaccine.

Death is a very obvious, unmissable event. If it takes that long to determine that a death was due to the vaccine, how are much more subtle, but nevertheless troublesome, adverse effects ever likely to be officially acknowledged as due to a vaccine?

“Why is Netflix pretending that Cleopatra was black?”

Apparently, she lived in northern Africa but she was ethnic Greek! So,no, she wouldn’t have been negroid.
Obviously these days a beautiful dark skinned Greek woman isn’t black enough!

Haha, this made me laugh. Now I hope as many as poss will turn the chuffing things off in protest.

”Rishi Sunek today pleaded for Britons not to turn off emergency alerts on their mobile phones ahead of the controversial test on Sunday. Downing Street defended the alarms insisting there had been an ‘extensive’ information campaign to brace the public, and two previous local tests did not cause panic.
Former Cabinet minister Jacob Rees-Mogg joined the backlash today, branding the plan ‘unnecessary and intrusive’.”

Which means Fishy is really asking those who are wavering to switch the alerts off. It really is a test of compliance. Those on the fence now who “disobey” will more than likely disobey at the next national government edict.

The sheep will obey this time and we, the antis will stick to our guns.

It’s a bit like chasing the swing voters in an election.

There will be some, hopefully not the majority but most likely so, that are indifferent. There’ll also be some that don’t know how to disable the alert. Of course there’s many that don’t have the relevant devices anyway. But I do hope, all in all, a sufficient number of people turn off the alert so as to send a message that they will not just meekly comply. I still haven’t figured out how to turn mine off, despite a couple of people posting tips here. I’ve got a Samsung Galaxy 9 and nowhere within the Notifications does it even say ”Alerts”. I’ve pressed everything. Mind you, I’m not as bothered by it as we’ve had these alerts ( very seldom used ) for years over here. The thing I find very suss about the UK one is the timing. Why start this thing now? Why not start it 5 years ago? You’ve got a WEF-planted puppet for PM now, the writing’s on the wall with regards to this totalitarian WHO treaty, we can see which way the wind’s blowing with the globalist psychos’ agenda, so any way, however small and insignificant it may see ( like using cash whenever possible… Read more »

Mogwai, the way to disable the emergency alerts on a Samsung is via the SMS text message function. Go into messages, click on the three vertical dots on the right, then click on “settings” in the box that apperars, then on “notifications” and in the list (third one down on my Samsung) Emergency Alerts is displayed with a slider button to disable it. I hope this is helpful.

Turning to your other point about people getting off their rears and fighting back, there needs to be more of this. I think it is just laziness on the part of local authorites, since among other things done locally, I’ve complained about social distancing signs and got them removed with no pushback at all. At the moment I am trying to get signs in the local city shopping centre car park removed that among other redundant things, tell people not to shake hands, for heaven’s sake!!

Hi, thanks for the detailed instructions. Unfortunately when I get to the Emergency alerts bit, the slider button is permanently greyed out, which is weird because you’d think that means I wouldn’t be able to receive them but they do a test every 6 months and I get them. It seems it may be an inbuilt feature do you think? I’m in the Netherlands and so perhaps the same rules don’t apply here. Maybe it’s obligatory…I could do a bit of digging at my end. I’m kind of doubting there’ll be a handy ”Should you wish to opt out of the emergency alerts, here’s what to do..” type section on the government website but I can delve a bit elsewhere.. Yes you do right in trying to get rid of those dratted, redundant and insulting signs. We want no reminders of just how spellbound and enslaved the majority of our fellow citizens were. Absolutely shameful and they should be embarrassed at their behaviour. EDIT: Ooh hellfire, I did it! LOL I just went a slightly different avenue. I turned off ”Extreme, severe and amber alerts”. Bizarrely the amber says ”Receive child abduction emergency alerts”. The top does say ”Presidential alerts”,… Read more »

I am very proud of our ULEZ camera destroyers. Katie Hopkins has a lovely YouTube short where she tongue-in-cheek mentions that expanding foam is available from Toolstation for £6.49. Now that stuff really does gum up the works.

Cheers Mogs. 🙂

I’ve turned off all of the alerts except the missing child bulletin alert which is probably a good thing.

“What harm can it do” is the simple phrase that has led us to the point of authoritarianism. I don’t know about Ireland, but in the UK, hundreds of girls are groomed and assaulted, and no-one sends a warning about them.

On the subject of alerts, my wifes phone was stolen the other day. The tracker tells us where it is, exactly, the shop has the CCTV of the guy stealing it, and then the CCTV of him getting in his car with a clear view of the reg plate. Simple matter of two bobbies round to knock on the door, you might think. Apparently not. They are ‘waiting for available resources’ since Tuesday. Instead of retrieving the phone and having the guy waiting for the magistrate tomorrow we’ve been left holding a £500 bill (insurance will cover it). Anyone think that the police are so efficient that they will be able to sound an alarm promptly about anything..?
