How Quakers Are Funding Open Borders

In the last week, news reports have suggested that Keir Starmer will introduce digital ID cards to clamp down on illegal immigration. According to the Standard, the Prime Minister “plans to announce the digital ID scheme at the next Labour Conference, which is due to begin on September 28th”.

All of this strikes me as utterly pointless (never mind dystopian), though, when the UK has thousands of charities and organisations designed to promote open borders. Many of these have deep pockets and are hardly known about by most voters – making it much easier for them to push their own political agendas through.

“We believe every resident, no matter where they are from, should have equal access to democracy”. But the democracy we have is rooted deeply in our culture, going back many centuries. Are all immigrants willing to adopt and learn from British culture in order to partake in our democracy? And this doesn’t address the issue of infrastructure provision. By the time you’ve put together extra housing, hospitals, schools, roads, motorways, water, sewage and all the rest, it requires as a rough estimate of about £100,000 of spend up front per immigrant.Where will the money come from?

Another Christian institution corrupted and deformed. Quakers were well known for charity, business acumen and helping others within the UK. They never advocated for the eradication of the UK. I would guess that like the CC they are well paid by gov’t to replace us in the great replacement invasion and I imagine that a few so-called ‘quakers’ are extremely rich off the invasion.

The greatest apostle for the fantasy and nonsense of the Jew Einstein’s Relativity was also a Quaker – Eddington – well paid for his sermonising supporting absolute nonsense.

Dear Lord Young, can you fix it for Charlotte Gill to get on the front page of the Daily Mail?

Toby is too busy writing a report for the Tories. They hope it will enable them to confuse voters so they forget the policies when they were in office and believe they stand for the opposite.

If these charities want open borders then they must support the cancelation of the welfare state, if they want people to come here, then they can pay for their support the tax payer should not have too, they can also provide housing, healthcare etc once again the tax payer should not have too,
These organisations are using us, in order to burnish their own halo’s and essentially thinking they are buying their way into heaven, What they are doing costs them nothing, but they are stealing from us.
Thank you to Charlotte for calling them out.

Well done again Charlotte for shining a light on the institutional capture of established charities by their activist left wing employees.

Note that it’s the trusts of Quaker grandees that are funding this. I assume that they are all dead because I remember the absolute bile from Quakers when Rowntrees got sold. I don’t think there are any Quaker industrialists left, they’re either dead or converted to a denomination which doesn’t suffer from envy.

Yes. Years ago I was a member of the Society of Friends, when our meeting had members of the Rowntrees, Corder-Catchpole and Cadbury families. Over the years things changed, and the Society of Friends became a magnet for certain political types. When one of them spoke in favour of marxism, the armed forces and conscription I knew it was time to hand in my resignation.

Completely off topic. Apologies.
Is it possible for the DS/TY to correct the wholly misleading and inaccurate description which Wikipedia gives re the DS?
It states that it has given misinformaton re covid vaccines and engaged in climate change denial.
The latter is certainly correct ie engaging in denial – as opposed to giving out misinformation about it.
However wiki is wholly wrong as regards covid vaccines. All unbiased research continues to show that the covid “vaccines” are anything but safe and effective, vindicating the DS’s position from day one – so why the disinformation slur?
Imho wiki is being defamatory and has libelled the DS.and its many covid authors.

I used to support Wikipedia until I realised:
a) they already have lots of money
b) their volunteers were going more woke with their edits

Still good in parts but not dependable without further investigation.

Unless you are blocked, you can edit those pages but you may find your changes reverted very quickly. I think there are woke socialist watchers on every page that is “controversial”. Maybe if your edits are subtle they will stand. You need to cite sources for anything you write, and I suspect you would not get away with simply removing the accusations (unless they don’t cite sources) but would need to balance them along the lines of “some say X, others say Y”

I completely share your annoyance and have cancelled my monthly donation. They cannot even write about Sir Francis Drake without implying he was involved in the slave trade etc. A useful resource has become just another platform for woke, virtue signalling misinformation.

So with over eight billion people out there who can’t come here? Oh, silly me, with open borders that must mean everyone. Just imagine that!

The people who push this ideology bear no responsibility for the impacts of their views and actions. Maybe we should ask them to front up £100k for each migrant, to cover costs until they are fully established, English speaking, tax paying members of our society..?

I’ve come to the view that Christianity either DOES support extending charity to almost an infinite degree, or, even if it does not necessarily do so when going back to fundamental principles, common understanding of Christianity does, and this goes WAY back.

Unfortunately, Christianity is the problem, it is not ‘corruption of Christianity’ that is the problem. It contains the seeds of its own destruction.

Rather than tackling this belief system head on, better to stick to tried and tested arguments:

  1. Most immigrants are economic migrants, they are not in dire need of refuge
  2. We can help them where they live, or close to it
  3. We have no moral obligation to help them if help exists or can be provided closer to hand. Best example here is that Palestinians could and should be helped by Egypt/Saudi.

Well done to Charlotte Gill for exposing the Quakers, a sinister cult helping the Globalists destroy the West.

For these ‘charities’ to be awarded taxpayer’s money to fund their own ruin, they must have agents in the civil service and parliament.
The security services must know about their actions and staffing. For these services to allow this subversion it must also mean that these agents have captured them.

If Quakers were Christian, they would know God created the nations (in reaction to man’s desire to elevate himself to God’s level; read the Tower of Babel story) and therefore established borders. It is not for man to defy God.

Democracy by definition requires a defined voting population. So by definition open border advocates are anti democratic and supporting movement towards totalitarian regimes. This principle applied to the EU. In addition a lack of definition of the scope of governance (no borders) denies accountability.
