The State Will Do Anything But Fix the Migrant Crisis
Migrant hotel protests are erupting across the country, as ‘tinderbox’ Britain catches fire, says Laurie Wastell in the Spectator. But as the state launches another clampdown on online speech, our politicians will do anything but fix the migrant crisis. Here’s an excerpt.
What began with a series of protests in Epping, Essex, over the alleged sexual assault of a teenage girl by a recently arrived Ethiopian migrant, has now spread, as Brits air long-standing grievances about asylum seekers they have been forced to host in their own communities.
Demonstrations have so far been reported in Bournemouth, Southampton and Portsmouth, Norwich, Leeds and Wolverhampton, Sutton-in-Ashfield in Nottinghamshire, Altrincham and even at Canary Wharf in London. With years of unaddressed anger rapidly making itself felt, the police, pulled in all directions, are struggling to keep up. “Local commanders are once again being forced to choose between keeping the peace at home or plugging national gaps,” admits the head of the Police Federation.
Still, it seems there is one thing the Government is more than happy to devote resources to: trawling the internet for anti-migrant sentiment. The Telegraph reports that an elite team of police officers convened by the Home Office is set to monitor social media to flag up early signs of unrest. Working out of the National Police Coordination Centre (NPoCC) in Westminster the new National Internet Intelligence Investigations team will “maximise social media intelligence” gathering in order to “help local forces manage public safety threats and risks”.
If this new division was just about intelligence-gathering that would be one thing. It’s true that social media is in invaluable resource for following events on the ground at such gatherings, while local Facebook groups are often where grassroots protests are organised.
Yet we know that when it comes to the British state and social media, censorship and punishment for online speech is never far behind. Ever since Sir Keir Starmer repeatedly linked the Southport unrest last year with social media, the idea has firmly taken root in Whitehall that the best way to stop unrest is to aggressively police the internet. Ofcom, the broadcast regulator, already takes this view, and the link has even been drawn in Department for Education guidance on how to talk to schoolchildren about the Southport disorder. In a recent report, the police inspectorate said that forces must be “better prepared and resourced to monitor, analyse, use and respond to online content”, which it argues was a risk to public safety. This general zeal for social-media policing is why Big Brother Watch believes the new unit is very likely to infringe on free speech. The investigations team is “Orwellian” and “disturbing”, says Interim Director Rebecca Vincent, creating the possibility that it “will attempt to interfere with online content” as other government bodies are known to have done during Covid.
What is obvious, Laurie concludes, is that the state should not be housing migrants “in hotels, in an Essex market town 500 yards from a school; on the Bournemouth beachfront; in London’s financial district; in a Leeds suburb right next to a shopping centre. As it is, however, it seems the regime will try anything and everything before addressing people’s real concerns.”

Well let’s hope the establishment and these snoopers will be held to account in due course. I think in effect they are on notice because people are sick and tired of being treated as second class citizens in their own country.
The State – those running it since 1997 – doesn’t want to do anything about it because the destruction of British culture, society, national identity and economic prosperity is by design.
Why do so many still not understand that? Articles telling us what wrong are just boringly repetitive. We know what’s wrong!
Increasingly more people are coming round to the view there’s only one way to fix it – and it isn’t Reform UK.

A terrific article from Mark Steyn. Laurie needs to have a read to bring himself up to date.
Thanks for pointing that one out
A limp-wristed article by Laurie. Kneel’s mob are reluctant to address public concerns because they have no intention to do so. What matters for our treasonous politicians is that unrest grows and ultimately they will call for a military style Lockdown making use of all those soldiers they have been importing.
We have to face up to reality, our government has declared war on its people and only one side wins in this war, us or them. The gimmigrants are here and for us to reclaim our country they have to be shipped out en masse and not just the illegals. Multiculturalism doesn’t work, it will never work and ultimately one culture will prevail and that applies the world over. The islamists will never accede to a subsidiary status and always aim for top dog – Fact. So, as already stated it’s us or them. In effect a war on two fronts with government and islam our adversaries.
It’s one hell of a war we face.
Yes. Not for the first time for the Anglo-Celt People.
History shows monocultures with shared, established bloodline are the most stable, peaceful, united, and prosperous. And of all the monocultures the British one has been the most stable.
Culture defines and governs a society, therefore “multicultural society” is an oxymoron because if there is more than one culture there is more than one society and government. Multicultural society is as dumb as proclaiming a multifaith religion.
All conflicts throughout history are rooted in culture clashes, the dominance of one culture over another and fight-back against that.
Spot on. 👍
Yes indeed it has. This post is in response to the news that the stupidly named, commie ‘Your Party’ has now got half a million people signed up and onboard supporting it; ”@AyoubKhanMP Britain should be afraid – not the “political elite.” The real danger is that sectarian politics now has a voice in the heart of Westminster, in the very seat of British democracy. You and your allies aren’t there to represent the British people – you’re there to bend our institutions to the will of imported voting blocs and foreign grievances. You parade words like “peace,” “justice,” and “equality,” but they’re just a mask. This movement of half a million sign-ups isn’t built on hope or unity. It’s built on anger, resentment, and the desire to dismantle Britain from within. It’s demographic muscle dressed up as compassion. It’s grievance politics sharpening its blade while cowards in power look the other way. You call this “better politics.” Better for who? Certainly not for Britain’s schools, hospitals, or working families. Your politics is tribal to the core, where loyalty to foreign conflicts outweighs loyalty to the country you claim to serve. Westminster is now home to MPs who don’t see… Read more »

What a comment on those who form part of our population.
It’s what Lorenzo Warby on his Subtrack calls “piety signalling”. These people are not signalling virtue, because, obviously, the destruction of our people is not virtuous. What they’re signalling to themselves and each other is that they are pious adherents of the dominant ideology.
Thanks 👍
Top class 👏
Of course our rulers won’t do anything about mad mass unlimited immigration (MMUI). This is because the Great Replacement is our rulers fundamental and most important policy. This is why the Establish tries it’s best to underplay the situation by referring to “net migration”. It’s also why the proponents of MMUI never say what the final number of invaders ought to be.
What we could do with now is a public discussion about why they want to replace us. Anglophobia – the irrational hatred of the native peoples of Britain – is part of it. But also there’s the attempt to “vote in” a newer and more subservient people who will – allegedly – give the madleft the revolution that the white working class was supposed to give the bourgeois Left, but didn’t.
“What is obvious, Laurie concludes, is that the state should not be housing migrants “in hotels…”
They should be “housing ” them in France whence they came and Germany the prime culprit in the immigrant deluge of Europe.
We shipped 320 000 from France across the Channel to Britain within a few days in 1940, and shipped 250 000 over to France in June 1944 within a few days.
It’s not difficult just needs the will and organising.
👍👍👍
The figures will be even worse for those with a migration background in reality as crime data from other European countries consistently show it’s the offspring ( who you would assume to be better integrated if they were born in the West ) who commit more crimes than their parents. As far as I’m aware you can be recorded as ‘British national’ but not have British citizenship or be born in Britain, so the data can easily be skewed depending on how it’s recorded; ”NEARLY four in ten people charged over sex attacks in London in the last seven years are foreign nationals, police figures show. Police figures show these migrants were behind 2,809 of the 7,798 alleged crimes recorded in the capital since 2018 – despite making up less than a quarter of the city’s population. Of the 7,798 offences, 4,631 were from British nationals, 2,809 from non-Brits, and 358 with unknown nationalities. If unknowns are counted as foreign nationals, it means non-Brits carried out 40.6 per cent of the crimes. If they are excluded, the figure is still 37.8 per cent. Robert Bates, Research Director at the Centre for Migration Control said: “Our capital city is stuck in… Read more »
The state has created the crisis quite deliberately and knowingly, of course they don’t want to fix it
The Police should be ashamed of themselves, I understand the high ups who are cleary Political in nature and themselves despise the people of this country, but you would think the lower of the rank and file would rebel, and say this is not why they came into the force,not to be a threat to the British people but to uphold the law catch criminals and prosecute. Instead they are turning on us the very people who pay their wages and who they are supposed to protect, not the bloody politicians and their sponsors.

Paul Collits at TCW with an interesting point of view. He believes the egregious depradations inflicted during the C1984 and which populations accepted confirm that civil war is not going to happen. Maybe. What is certain is that eventually there will be sectarian violence and I cannot see that being avoided. In fact such violence is exactly what Kneel and co are aiming for.

And this is Mat Goodwin’s take on our current predicament. Unfortunately Mr Goodwin still places too much faith in our broken system. He even believes Farage and Reform will ride to our rescue. Deluded.
Patrick Wood wrote on this subject last year
Trilateral Commissioner Peter Sutherland (1946-2018), hailed as the “Father of Globalization,” was the undisputed architect of Europe’s disastrous immigration policy. This scurrilous rat set the immigration quotas for Europe and then enforced them as nations resisted the Islamic invasion.
Sutherland wrote in Migration is Development in 2013,
“…there is no greater symbol of the world’s growing interdependence than the movement of people. If we can make meaningful economic progress in the coming generations, one of the pivotal reasons will be that people are allowed to move more freely. Advanced countries, with their adverse demographic trends, need migrants, as do developing countries ― not only for migrants’ economic contributions, but also for the social and cultural diversity that they bring.”
A complete advocate of Sustainable Development, Sutherland once stated that the only path to Sustainable Development was to be found through multiculturalism, or migration.
Given that Kier Starmer is a member of the Trilateral Commission, of course he is not going to do anything to fix the migrant crisis. Mass immigration is the policy..
Patrick M Wood is an invaluable source of information. In a press conference with President Trump this afternoon, Starmer stubbornly and repeatedly referred to illegal invaders (‘migrants’) as “irregular”. A formal definition of this word is a soldier who does not belong to the regular army. Is this why it has been pointedly chosen as the word to describe the outlaws the UK is harbouring? Is the joke on us?
They want them here, It’s meant to destroy our way of life. All in the great reset agenda, and it’s no secret.
They are deliberately importing the criminal migrants. If they can have a secret injunction to hide the deliberate importation of thousands of un-vetted Afghans, including Taliban, they could also have a secret injunction hiding a “deal” or policy to import criminal migrants from France.
I believe there is a secret deal, made during the Brexit negotiations, that “we’ll take our fair share” of the criminal migrants. That’s why there is such close co-operation between the British and French authorities.
For the sake of appearances, the British PM (first Sunak, now Two-Tier) pretends he wants to stop the invasion and Macron pretends he is trying.
It is all theatre. They are deliberately importing them.
History is being made. The Labour Party and the Conservative Party will cease to exist. The boat people will be returned ala Trump and ICE-like actions and peace and happiness will be restored to these shores. God inflicted the establishment with this retribution to remove them.
