“Couldn’t the hate marchers have taken just this one day off?”
Well, of course they couldn’t. They believe they are in the right, and believing you are right trumps any need for empathy, or humanity.
Leftist Nazis (who were socialists) ans Islamo sympathisers never take a day off
Which is why we cant take a day off too.
Never off-duty…
Theresa May may think Kemi Badenoch’s promise to repeal the Climate Change Act is a “catastrophic mistake”
Takes one to know one…
“Badenoch: Tories will deport 150,000 migrants a year”
Another cut and paste policy taken from Reform.
“Kemi Badenoch’s seven-point plan to secure the borders”
A seven point plan is the correct number of points to show you are serious. Its more serious than if you have a five point plan, in which things that could have been in the plan, are left out, and easier to remember than a nine point plan if anyone ever asks you what the points are and you can’t regurgitate it under the TV lights.
“Almost 2,000 ‘terrorists’ arrested in London in just three months”
Terrorist supporters, more accurately. The terrorists arrived and continue to arrive from the Middle East via several safe countries, to be ushered in to our ‘land of plenty’ without so much as a ‘Who are you, and why are you here?’
Everything the establishment does stokes the fire of civil war. Do they realise that the civil war will come for them? I don’t think they do.
This has gone well and truly under the radar… https://travel-europe.europa.eu/en/ees
Looks like we’ll need to have our fingerprints and face scanned and stored digitally if we want to enter the EU from the 12th October. As our passport photos or fingerprints aren’t stored in an EU database atm, quite what they compare what they’ve scanned against in order to validate identity is anyone’s guess. Unless, of course, we have digital identification. Lockstep.

Ms Thunberg allegedly tortured!
‘In an email sent by the Swedish foreign ministry…..an official who has visited the activist in prison said she claimed she was detained in a cell infested with bedbugs, with too little food and water……
She also stated that she had developed rashes which she suspects were caused by the bedbugs.
She spoke of harsh treatment and said she had been sitting for long periods on hard surfaces.’
As treatment for any condition caused by the ‘hard surfaces’ the Embassy doctor apparently recommended Ms Thunberg should ‘get off her backside!’
Not exactly being bound in Duct tape, and left in the dark down a hole, except for a routine kicking and having a pistol held to your head by shouty angry men threatening to kill you.
I believe she was warned about entering a war zone, and what would happen. ie something very similar to what happened last time she tried it.?
I wonder if the ‘hard surface’ in question was of size ten or greater and in motion when it connected with her posterior?
Gasp! Her ‘celebrity’ counted for nothing!
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Perhaps she might care to join some of the ladies currently being held in the Iranian prison system?
