I didn’t know this. The UK gives either residency rights or asylum to two thirds of migrants that cross the Channel. These numbers came from a former French prime minister who will run to be President.
His point is as long as we are so inviting to the migrants they will continue to head our way no matter what the obstacle.
Reasonable point.

This isn't about slavery at all
If it was, these campaigners would be fighting for the millions of Africans in MODERN slavery
This is a cash grab by the Caribbean and an attack on Britain & The West by activists
No one today is a victim of Britain's slave trade

With reports of poppy sellers being targeted by pro-Palestinian protesters, it’s time to put political differences aside.
Our elderly volunteers should never face intimidation for selling poppies and honouring our war dead. Whatever our political views, we must stand together to ensure they can carry out their work safely.
Protect our poppy sellers. Honour our fallen. Defend our right to remember.

I can’t believe Burnham would be stupid enough to give British citizenship to 400,000 people just 6 years after they came here.
That would cost us hundreds of billions of pounds if they stay forever.
It would go down as one of the worst decisions in modern British history.

Tomorrow Labour’s Home Secretary will announce she is conceding defeat to Angela Rayner.
And the mad Labour backbench MPs.
She will U-turn on her promise to stop the Boriswave settling and getting British passports.
Burnham is betraying the people of Makerfield again.
He promised not to water down Mahmood’s settlement reforms.
The cost of this betrayal will be hundreds of billions added to Britain’s debt.
British people again being betrayed in service of foreign nationals.
We cannot go on like this.
Reform will fight this betrayal with everything we have.

The winners of the BBC's Celebrity Traitors have handed £83,000 to charities supporting the invasion of Great Britain.
Not homeless British veterans. Not pensioners choosing between heating and eating. Not British families struggling to survive.
We should have known. It's the BBC.
British people come last, even in their own country.

🚨BREAKING: SECRET £150 MILLION FOR MIGRANTS
They didn't mention it in the budget today
But tucked away in the small print
"The Government have set aside a further £150 million for large scale asylum seeker accommodation"
All paid for by the British Taxpayer
ABSOLUTE DISGRACE
Peter Flint retweeted
If that really was a Budget to pave the way for an early general election, and voters choose to keep this Government in office, then I'm afraid the British people will deserve everything they get.
Peter Flint retweeted
Hidden away on page 111 of the Budget - 'The government is providing £150 million capital investment in 2027-28 to fund additional large sites to accommodate asylum seekers'
A treasonous decision.
Every penny of that should be directed towards a programme of mass deportations.

Profesor ekonomii na uniwersytecie stwierdził, że kiedyś oblał całą klasę. Ta klasa upierała się, że socjalizm działa i że nikt nie powinien być biedny, a nikt bogaty, że wszyscy są równi...
Nauczyciel powiedział im: „OK, przeprowadzimy eksperyment z socjalizmem w tej grupie.
Wszystkie oceny będą uśrednione, a każdy dostanie tę samą ocenę, więc nikt nie oblany i nikt nie dostanie 10”.
Po pierwszym teście oceny zostały zsumowane i podzielone przez liczbę studentów, i każdy dostał 8.
Studenci, którzy uczyli się intensywnie, byli zdenerwowani, ale ci, którzy uczyli się mniej, byli zachwyceni.
Gdy zbliżał się drugi test, studenci, którzy wcześniej uczyli się trochę, uczyli się jeszcze mniej, a ci, którzy uczyli się intensywniej, powiedzieli sobie, że oni też chcą „darmowego prezentu”, więc też uczyli się mniej.
Średnia z drugiego testu wyniosła 6.
Gdy przeprowadzono trzeci test, średnia ocena wyniosła 4. Ku wielkiemu zaskoczeniu wszystkich studentów, wszyscy oblali.
Nauczyciel powiedział im, że socjalizm w końcu zawiedzie, ponieważ gdy połowa populacji widzi, że nie musi pracować, bo druga połowa się nimi zajmie, a gdy ta połowa, która pracowała, zdaje sobie sprawę, że nie ma sensu już pracować, bo inni korzystają z ich pracy, to jest koniec każdego narodu.
Ta historia może być bajką, a nie faktem, ale morał jest prawdziwy.

We are being told to drive Electric Cars then they keep threatening power cuts so you can’t drive your car.
We are being told that they want a cashless society then told to get cash out in case of a Cyber Attack.
We are being told to stock up on Water Bottles because there could be a problem with our water system.

High Wycombe’s mayor, Imran Hussain, has accused me of being 'irresponsible and wrong' for highlighting the changing demographics of a Wycombe school.
Wycombe High School has gone from 60% White British in 2016 to just 30% now. Ten years.
I asked if we were able to have a mature debate about how immigration has already entirely demographically transformed our country.
Clearly, the answer is no.
I'm told the town 'stronger because of its diversity, not in spite of it'.
Right. Okay.
I disagree.
Mass immigration has made our towns more dangerous, more divided, more deprived.
For decades, politicians like Hussain have been able to shut down the debate with these bullshit diversity buzzwords - accusing anyone with legitimate concerns of racism or bigotry.
It will not work anymore.

The welfare state was built for a different Britain. It worked because almost everyone was in work and paying in, and only a small number ever needed to draw from it.
That's not the system we have today. It has become one of the biggest drains on the public purse, and the NHS is going the same way, with people using it who have never paid a penny towards it.
Both were meant to be a safety net for those who built this country. Right now British taxpayers are funding everyone else first.

I asked Labour MP Dawn Butler why she's demanding my constituents pay more tax to fund "reparations".
She wouldn't answer, but called me a "racist" in the Commons.
It's not right to make people pay "reparations" when they've done nothing wrong. Name-calling doesn't change that.

It’s sickening isn’t it when 6 Million people on benefits will receive £150 energy bill discount this winter & yet workers who are struggling to pay their bills get NOTHING.
A lot of people on benefits are better off than workers because they get so many more additional benefits that workers don’t get.
It’s wrong that you can be better off on benefits than working.

The red poppy is a simple, personal act of remembrance for the men and women who died in our wars. It is not a party badge, not a slogan, and not a prop for anyone’s politics.
When an NHS doctor, paid by taxpayers, turns it into a political weapon or links it to a terrorist organisation, that is a hijacking. The symbol belongs to the families who lost people, not to activists looking for a fight.
Wear yours this year. Quietly, deliberately, and without apology.
The left does not get to rewrite what the poppy means.

The bottom line is this:
Slavery existed for 5,000 years. Every where
The pyramids were not built by volunteers
In the Eighteen century a group of British people set about making slavery illegal
Eventually they won
🚨JOG ON LENNY
Sir Lenny Henry has renewed calls for a national conversation about slavery reparations, arguing that the issue cannot be measured solely in financial terms.
Speaking about the long-term impact of Britain’s role in the transatlantic slave trade, the comedian and campaigner said reparations should be viewed as part of a wider process of acknowledgement, justice and healing.
Reflecting on the subject, he said that addressing the legacy of slavery could bring a “nationwide sigh of relief” over an issue that had “gone unspoken” for generations.
Referencing findings from the Brattle Report, which estimated the economic cost of Britain’s involvement in slavery at around £18.6 trillion, Sir Lenny suggested that discussions about reparations are often avoided because of the scale of the figures involved.
He said: “Once you start to break it down, it goes beyond getting a cash refund for slavery. It becomes about social engineering, and – it’s going to sound really touchy-feely – but it becomes about healing, and about spiritual healing, rather than just cash. It’s hundreds of years of being oppressed and downtrodden.”
He also argued that the financial implications can make people reluctant to engage with the debate, saying: “It’s so huge they’re frightened, because actual reparations would cost trillions of pounds.”
While acknowledging that meaningful change would take time, Sir Lenny said the discussion itself is important and could help shape future generations’ understanding of Britain’s history and its lasting consequences.
He added: “These things take time. Look how long it took to abolish slavery – and to pay for slave owners’ loss of work and earnings. This is to try and push the dial so that the conversation might lead to something. That might take another 100 years, another 150 years.”
