[Look at this, from a focus group leader who penned it for Channel 4 in Britain. Excerpt:

Quote:
The former fishing town, won by Boris Johnson in 2019 and wrestled back by Labour in 2024, perches on the edge of the North Sea. It is one of the ninety seats where Reform UK is second to Labour.
I spoke to two groups of people. The first voted Labour in 2024 but now lean to Nigel Farage's party. The second like many across the country did not vote at all last year. These voters' backgrounds ranged from an Afghanistan veteran to a retiree, from a carer to a stay-at-home mum recovering from depression.

Their outlook for the country was nothing short of apocalyptic. They spoke of hundreds of homeless Britons on the streets, while "floods" of illegal migrants are housed in hotels on the taxpayer. A carer spoke of children hobbled with mental health problems, the long hangover of the Covid pandemic still biting. The stay-at-home mum talked of criminals and junkies living above her, with politicians and local police powerless to stop them.

Not one of the Labour voters could name an achievement by the party they voted for. The most recalled action was Labour's cutting of the winter fuel allowance, described as punishing Brits to siphon more money to immigration. The non-voting group spurned the election deliberately, feeling there was no option that represented them. The mainstream parties' alien values had pushed them away: "there's no democracy in the UK anymore".

The government's handling was "disgraceful", "disgusting", "managed decline". Britain was described as "losing everything that made us great". Some even spoke of the possibility of violence, a "civil war", a "revolution".

Immigration was at its core, with high numbers of legal and illegal migration seen to be "diluting" British culture and the "indigenous people" of the country. In this context, Keir Starmer's welfare cuts were seen as an insult to Britain's poorest while the money kept flowing to those crossing the channel on small boats.
In Wales last year, the Labour government ordered museums to "decolonize" their collections and presentations, so as not to offend the "diverse." This could mean the removal of statues of Lord Nelson and the Duke of Wellington.

This morning, on the drive to the airport, I was listening to the latest "Rest Is History" podcast, in which the hosts were talking about a Viking king, Sven Forkbeard, attacking particular targets in England with the intention of humiliating the English king Ethelred by showing that he was unable to protect the kingdom's women. I thought: huh, what are the Muslim rape gangs today all about?] -Rod Dreher

[Our special guest was Matt Goodwin, whose Substack is a must-read to keep abreast of politics and political culture in Britain. Matt was on fire about the Pakistani rape gangs, and the Starmer government's attempts to distract the British people from the horror of it. Imagine, said Matt, that gangs of white men had gone into Pakistani Muslim communities, gotten young Muslim girls hooked on booze and drugs, raped them and pimped them out many thousands of them! What would the BBC's reaction be? What would Official Britain's?

I think we know the answer. And that is a freaking outrage.
GB News reported this morning:

Quote:
A former senior police officer has claimed that he was threatened with arrest after he presented a lengthy investigation into child sexual exploitation in Bradford.
John Piekos, a retired detective chief inspector, told GB News that a senior member of social services in the West Yorkshire town made the threat next to a uniformed officer.
… GB news has spoken to his work partner from this period who reaffirmed Piekos's testimony.
In an emotional exchange, Piekos explain how on one occasion, they followed a car after it had collected a girl from the children's home late at night.
"We couldn't see the girl in the passenger seat of the vehicle. We thought that she had got out and walked down on the opposite side of the road. There were no shops, there was nowhere to go. Yet the girls wasn't in the car.
"I walked straight past. And as I walked back, I saw her head pop up from the driver's side of the vehicle, her little head came up from his lap."

If you don't know about the rape gangs scandal, watch this documentary from 2023 from GBNews. The reason we are talking about this again is because Elon Musk heard about it last year, and made an issue of it on X. No wonder UK and European authorities want to gag X. The platform makes it possible to discuss things the ruling class in those countries prefer people to ignore.

What kind of society can know for a fact that groups of men foreigners at that systematically drugged, raped, prostituted, and otherwise sexually abused girls, and did it precisely because (as some of these rapists have testified) because of their race, and pretend it didn't happen, for the sake of appeasing a sense of propriety?

In the case of the Catholic Church's sex abuse scandals, it's not hard to imagine that bishops did not want the Church's reputation to suffer public exposure of these crimes, nor is it hard to imagine why many lay Catholics didn't want to know either: because they decided, probably subconsciously, that they could not bear knowing that the institution that gave their life meaning and order could have also permitted this. It is in no way excusable, but it is at least understandable, because it's religion.

But for multiculturalism? Is maintaining the ideology of multiculturalism, which entails a belief that Non-White People Are Always Victims Of White Racism, worth enduring the sacrifices of these children? Apparently it is, to the British establishment. Why, though, do the British people tolerate it? What has happened to them?
And what will happen to them should they lose control of their state in the demographic changes barreling down on them like a freight train?

If, God forbid, civil war should come to Britain, understand that the Pakistani rape gangs are major villains in instigating it, but there are no bigger villains than the British establishment the government and the media in particular that permitted it to happen FOR DECADES, and preferred to look the other way to serve the great and powerful god, Multiculturalism.]

[Did you see that Great Britain, motherland of ordered liberty, now has a blasphemy law, de facto? It's true:
Quote:
Officially, blasphemy was abolished by New Labour in the 2008 Criminal Justice Act. But today, with the conviction of Hamit Coskun, blasphemy laws now exist in England.
This law has been created by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) and District Judge John McGarva. Between them they have prosecuted and found a man guilty of a 'religiously aggravated public order offence' because he burned a Quran outside the Turkish consulate. The CPS mounted a prosecution conflating the religious institution of Islam, with Muslims as people, and a British judge has accepted this. Islamic blasphemy codes are now being enforced by arms of the British state, via what the National Secular Society describes as 'a troubling repurposing of public order laws as a proxy for blasphemy laws'.
Hamit Coskun burned a Quran outside the Turkish consulate in February, before being attacked by a man named Moussa Kadri who has since pleaded guilty to the assault. Mr Coskun was initially charged under the Crime and Disorder Act with 'intent to cause against the religious institution of Islam harassment, alarm or distress'. This means that the Crown Prosecution Service were treating Islam itself as a person, and a victim of Hamit's Quran burning. Under English law this is nonsensical, as only people can be harmed in this fashion, so this charge, if it had been successful, would have established a special, protected status for Islam.
Get this: according to the judgment, part of the reason Coskun was convicted is because his act provoked a Muslim to attack him physically!
Quote:
The CPS claimed, and Judge McGarva accepted, that Hamit committed a crime because his actions caused distress, harassment and alarm (presumably to the man who attacked him), and that this was motivated by his hostility towards Muslims.
Unbelievable … but not so much these days in the UK, with its two-tier policing that shows immoderate tolerance to Muslims who say horrendous things in public, but that cracks down hard on non-Muslims who utter a peep.
It's not my holy book, but I think it's wrong to burn a Koran. It's wrong to burn a Bible. I would never do anything like this, and would criticize people who do. One should never seek to profane the holy things of others, for the pleasure of being transgressive. But I would rather live in a society where such offensive speech is protected than one in which it isn't. This court's ruling was almost certainly not out of any special love for Muslims and Islam, but out of fear of them, and it.]

'Britain's Götterdmmerung'

There has been a marked shift in British public opinion regarding the rape gangs. My X feed is filled with volcanic anger from Britons enraged at their own ruling class, in government and in media. This piece by Sebastian Milbank sums it up well. Excerpts:

Quote:
Is Britain a country worth defending? It's not a question we've have had to ask ourselves for a while, not perhaps since the days of the slave trade and sending children up chimneys. But it's a question we're certainly asking now. For two decades, the British establishment has lied to its people, smeared critics as racists, and mired itself in corruption and cover-up. The crime? The very worst one there is: the systematic rape and abuse of children.

The names of old industrial towns have become symbols of national shame Rotherham, Rochdale, Telford. Not dozens, not hundreds, but thousands of young girls were abused in ways too horrible to imagine. And, indeed, those who governed us did not want to imagine it was happening. That one of the largest ethnic minority groups in the country was disproportionately implicated in the pedophilic exploitation of white children is a fact that so utterly unseats the assumptions and platitudes of our ruling class that they could not allow themselves to know it.

At every level, from social workers to police, from councils to courts, from mayors to ministers, the British establishment upheld an omert over grooming. There are cases of victims and their parents themselves being arrested, with one child prosecuted for the racial abuse of the man who abused her sexually. On the scales of justice, between white working class child and Pakistani rapist, the British state placed its thumb firmly on the side of the latter.

I cannot believe I am writing this, it sounds like some raving, racist conspiracy theory. But it is entirely, utterly true. Baroness Casey has just published her report into the grooming gangs, and amongst the flood of horrific findings, one astonishing fact stood out.

For these past 20 years, the terrible details of this abuse were not unknown, but the reception they received was very different. Journalists and politicians continually denied that these crimes were disproportionately committed by Pakistanis or other ethnic groups. With huge confidence it was again and again asserted that the vast majority of suspects were white. The Casey report has utterly shattered that narrative, and revealed it for what it was: a cynical lie.
That really happened: a girl who was being raped by her abuser was tried for racial abuse of the Muslim man who was raping her. Such are the ways of the British ruling class. The ruling class including media, and both major parties are to blame:

Quote:
This betrayal, now exposed for all to see, will erode already scant trust in central pillars of public life. It will add explosive fuel to the fire of populist political sentiment, driving votes away from traditional parties, and increasing the likelihood of civil unrest and intercommunal violence.

And there are worrying signs that it may be too late for our rotten establishment to mend its ways. Keir Starmer has belatedly accepted the need for a national inquiry, but many in his own party are neck-deep in it. Shaun Davies, MP for Telford, tried to shift blame onto the Tories, but it was soon revealed that he himself, when was council leader of Telford, wrote to the Home Secretary begging that an inquiry not take place. And yet the Tory record is hardly better. That 2020 Home Office report that fudged the figures? Produced under supposed [Tory] hardliner Priti Patel.

They also can never understand per capita. Pakistanis are like 2% of their population but do some double digit % of the raping.

Yep. The percentage of the U.S. population vs. the crime rates of young blek men is astounding. It really just demonstrates how unbelievable stupid the average liberal woman is ...
