  1. What is so good about a "diverse" parliament? We are 80% white in this country, but all we want is the best people not DEI shoved down our throats. Unfortunately, there are only a dozen people in parliament worthy of the role.

  2. Most Israeli citizens are rightly behind this. Most of the Gazans supported Hamas too it seems.

  3. The only victim was the brave fireman that lost his life fighting a fire started by the rioters.

  4. Never apologise for something you didn't do. Never apologise because people ask you to, it makes it meaningless. But also never apologise for the greatest Empire known to man.

  5. Good. Everyone I know supports this. Rwanda is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, largely untouched by the self imposed and pointless economic shut down we've had for two years. Rwanda needs people and if these are genuine refugees they should be ecstatic at this opportunity... the support they'll get in Rwanda is huge.

  6. It's so simple...people have been crying out for this but ignored by government.

  7. For once Starmer is right. The truth is that we should nationalise energy and the other utilities... and I'm broadly a capitalist. If not we need to tax these excessive profits, the only people that benefit currently are shareholders and overpaid management.

  8. As far as I've seen, only GB News has bothered to actually interview a Rwandan analyst about this. Well worth a watch.

  9. Putin 1 - Woke Western Leaders 0

  10. The police won't even say what colour the gunman was.... only just said "...probably a male" despite both the poor mum and the guy in hospital seeing him up close. Political correctness gone mad.

  11. Hopefully by ignoring it. Atmospheric temperatures have hardly changed only the strategically placed ground sites, Great Barrier Reef has best coverage for years, sea levels aren't rising (I remember them saying major capitals would be under water by 2010!), studies at the Sorbonne University show regular short term temperature changes of up to 15 deg over the past millenia none caused by man. If it was real they wouldn't be jetting around the world. Instead focus on recycling, buying local, reducing packaging and preventing rubbish being dumped in our oceans.

  12. The fact she and many Muslims keep focusing on religion and what is going on in the middle east, says to me this isn't her country I'm afraid. Let us remember this has been a Christian country for the best part of 1500 years. Other religions Judaism, Sikh, Buddhist and Hindu don't cause these problems and constantly focus on it. They have pretty much integrated.

  13. She loved watching herself!!

  14. Exactly up to the mid 70s Beirut was successful, rich and easy going. Given time that could have spread to the rest of the country too. Death, fear and poverty follow Islam.

  15. More on illegals and social security payments to supposedly legal migrants.

  16.  @EllenWst  bla bla bla... does this apply to the Black, Chinese and Asian Reform candidates. Try to educate yourself before making unfounded accusations.

  17.  @mantoxyco4089  there's lots of pictures of her cheering and fist pumping. Looks more like some form of celebration than grieving for her son. Very odd behaviour at the least.

  18. 3% of population are black in UK, probably a little higher in England. So that's about 1 in 20 so in womens football its about right proportion. And yet look at our 4 x 100 and 4 x 400 athletic teams almost entirely black. Is that ok?

  19. I could launch an attack on my next door neighbour in a couple of days too... equally unlikely.

  20.  @miketaverner4451  and yet he had cordial relations with both Russia and N.Korea, dropped way way fewer bombs than Obama and started the process to bring troops home. It appears your fears were unfounded. Under the current administration though we have Russia invading Ukraine, China threatening to do the same to Taiwan and N.Korea going back into isolation whilst testing both long range and hypersonic missiles.

  21. The booster's working I see...

  23. Brilliant seeing all these patriots. Almost as good as seeing the salty tears of saddo lefties in the comments - acting tough!

  25.  @Pining_for_the_fjords  if there were any civilians there, then the terrorists were in their homes and sheltering among them..

  26. never has

  27. Black or Asian prisoners make up 25% of prison population but just14% of the population... figures correct as at June 2023.

  28.  @EllenWst  ah so you're a "waycist". Must be a Labour supporter

  29. Immigration, immigration, immigration and a certain book are the cause and the problem.

  30. And those spending time dancing of course...

  31. Spot on!

  32. Do you know of any wars that aren't political?

  33. Not a daft question at all. In London I've heard they are giving numbered wrist bands so you can leave and then get back in your place... numerous loos along the queuing root apparently. But expect over 12 hour queues.

  34.  @jjefferyworboys8138  don't have a pension.

  37. Apparently the French authorities have said he was 28 not 16...

  38. They really are all creeps more so than ever.... Melloni is the only one that I can tolerate although don't know enough about the Japanese chap Kishida to be fair. But why are Zelensky and von der Leyen there at all... suspect Schwab is hiding out of site in his puppet master outfit.

  39. Exactly

  40. Exactly. I would add that having such a well off spouse and her taking legal, but morally questionable, tax breaks when he was chancellor isn't good. Nor are the dual passports/green card of both.

  41.  @TheOldGuest  lol yep my black mates are the worst. They hate the boat people.

  42.  @preyhunter4179  I'm a proud Englishman but to pretend the USA and UK haven't tried to tell other smaller powers what to do is being blind to the truth.

  44. It's gonna be worse for five years, and that is saying something after the last 40. Of course Big Brother won't allow us to state that simple fact very soon.

  45. Especially when they are all families with young children fleeing from horrendous wars.... oh!!

  46.  @mattpjsmith  spot on. There's an awful lot of older people with perhaps only a few years left on this planet who don't want to spend their last years under the current house arrest. Life is about living not existing.

  47. Not within the party he's not. Of course he will be put forward alongside a no hoper most likely because this is who knows who and what the MPs can do for each other. It's nothing to do with the Tory party members, or Tory voters or the public in general.

  48.  @dennisreid4428  wtf are you waffling about? Ah I get it comparing Christianity 800 years ago to Islam now. Yep that's about right, they are still living in the 13th century.

  49. Why aren't you reporting on the huge protests in Canada... there appears to be an MSM media shutdown.. this may explain why https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FBwPjtBMXc&t=21s

  50.  @batintheattic7293  the thing is there is a well proven fact that the majority of people will go along with the group. So if this guy says something slightly off colour most people won't say anything against and indeed will go along and guffaw (good word by the way not heard if for a while!) just to be part of the peer group. He is an actor - that is proven.. Whether he was playing a role here or not is to be determined but it leaves a bad taste regardless.
