Anyone else that Farage’s state might decide to target will also be in their sightlines. Think the LGBTQ+ community, trade unionists, awkward academics, bloggers they do not like, anyone whose face “does not fit”, those with disabilities and those who are neurodivergent, and more.
We can hope, eh? By my count Spud has claimed to be at least 4 of those 7.
Tough on potatoes, tough on the causes of potatoes. Vote Farage!
LGBTQ+ community: some of them get called TERFS nowadays, and get bullied accordingly.
Trade unionists: those who don’t do as they are bloody well told hear “We know where you live, we know where your kids go to school.”
awkward academics: the few who are sceptics about Global Boiling, or were wise about Covid, eh?
bloggers they do not like, anyone whose face “does not fit”: but they get bullied now.
those with disabilities: is the arse really saying that the Farageistes are going to bully cripples? What a twat.
and those who are neurodivergent: ah, does he mean Socialists?
I see we can’t comment on the MoD’ scheme post, but I take issue with ‘They draw a line under past wrongs’. They do no such thing, they merely judge past actions by modern standards, there was no ‘injustice’ at the time. It was the prevailing opinion of society at the time.
Let’s stop pretending that Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain Party and Nigel Farage’s Reform UK are running different agendas. It is already clear that they co-exist to simultaneously fuel the rightward shift towards fascism in the UK.
Says the man who wants to take over all private savings and make any business he deems environmentally ‘unsound’ bankrupt by law.
A week after Lowe’s promise to deport hundreds of thousands of people a year, Reform is now promising to deport 288,000 a year (a curiously precise number) with five flights a day planned to deport people from this country to destinations unnamed and with no certainty that they would be granted the right to land.
So some might be turned back true but your alternative (which we’ll see later on) is simply to do nothing – continue to allow unlimited people in. Noone, even those fuelling the legions of ISIS reserves is to be turned away.
I think in a nominally Christian country that’s fair enough. I don’t want to live under Islamic law and am curious as to why he does. As mentioned already, Islamic extremism is a far greater danger to the country than your absurd ‘far right’ menace and I think Prevent has been captured by the kind of forces that are pushing an Islamic blasphemy law. It’s mandate does need to be redirected. Anyone opposing that frankly needs to have their funding looked at for potential links with Islamist terror groups. Given your desperate financial state I doubt a stipend from ISIS would be unwelcome.
So:
We obviously know from your accusations of genocide against Israel that you are one of the UK’s leading anti-semites but the Nazi comparisons are both facetious and inaccurate, especially from someone who wants every Jew in the Middle East murdered.
We will have a “hostile environment” for all migrants, including those legally settled here, and so of their children who were born here and are automatically British citizens.
We do need to make it clear that these people are guests here, and even if their descendants have British citizenships this is not going to mean they can simply colonize the country and make it just like ‘back home.’ I don’t want Halal slaughter to be legal or an Islamic monoculture in parts of our cities. The notion that any Islamic country would turn its laws on their head and permit permanent residents to do things that are ‘Unislamic’ is laughable. The pendulum has swung far too far in favour of immigrants and a rebalancing is well overdue.
We will have legalised violence imposed on anyone the state presumes to be an enemy, because we can be quite sure that this will not only be migrants or people from ethnic minorities: this will be rule by terror.
Sounds like the ‘dog free’ zones that various local authorities are planning across the UK, including the entire countryside but I guess that’s absolutely fine.
Anyone else that Farage’s state might decide to target will also be in their sightlines.
Think the LGBTQ+ community,
As the great PiP points out, maybe ask female victims of Big Trans’ desire to molest women and children whether they feel safe?
trade unionists,
Frankly I’m pissed off with Unions being able to hold the country to ransom, especially in the public sector. The sooner laws can be changed to allow them and their leaders to be sued the better.
awkward academics,
Didn’t you leave the academic scene in the UK because it was overly ‘neoliberal’?
bloggers they do not like,
I think a few of us here are crowdfunding to get a US style Secret service vehicle to sit outside your house with a guy with a mike pretending to be making reports on your activity.
anyone whose face “does not fit”,
Perhaps ask your Gestapo in Bristol and Brighton who have been going ‘door to door’ to ask who hasn’t subscribed to the ‘Israeli sanctions agenda’ (which is exactly how the real Gestapo behaved by the way)
those with disabilities and those who are neurodivergent, and more.
Where is there evidence of this? Is this Tice questioning whether there might be one or two SEND cases that might be questionable?
We will get Christianity imposed by law.
As opposed to Sharia law and Sharia courts?
We will have full-blown fascism.
‘Everyone’s a far-right nutcase’
And, of course, we will have an economic meltdown, as none of this is possible without that meltdown happening.
I think the meltdown has already happened….
The whole thing reads like something a 20 year old might scrawl in the comment pages of the Tab or Varsity. Frankly its embarrassing that someone his age could be so unhinged.
“Perhaps ask your Gestapo in Bristol and Brighton who have been going ‘door to door’ to ask who hasn’t subscribed to the ‘Israeli sanctions agenda’”
I read an article about the lot in Bristol doing this (I don’t say from Bristol as they’ll all be students). Apparently they don’t engage if anyone tries to argue with them. They walk away because arguing ‘does no good’. They are obviously well versed in all the arguments.
“We will have legalised violence imposed on anyone the state presumes to be an enemy”
Isn’t that how the State always behaves? How he wants the Courageous State to behave? He just wants it to have different targets.
And it does sound very like how the State behaved in lockdown – which he thinks should have been more restrictive and carried on for longer.
Oh, it wasn’t because he was useless and so ignorantly and arrogantly dogmatic that even the left-wing students hated being taught by him?
All hail the Ring doorbell. Why would anyone open the door to these loons?
All hail the Ring doorbell. Why would anyone open the door to these loons?
To ask for the list of places selling Israeli goods so you know where to shop? That would be attitude if anyone tried it here.
I actively seek out Israeli produce.
They don’t *need* to land;)
Halfway to France and they can swim the rest of the way.
If I seriously thought Reform were after him I’d be out campaigning for them.
Spuddo has become quietly Islamophobic; he didn’t mention them in his enumeration of victim categories.
ICE has killed 5 American citizens.
Illegal immigrants have killed 1,713 American citizens.
I wonder how many of the 5 ICE ‘victims’ were actively trying to obstruct or do harm to the ICE agents?
“Under 18 U.S.C. § 111, forcibly assaulting or resisting a federal officer can result in up to 20 years in prison, while obstruction of justice under 18 U.S.C. § 1505 may lead to up to 8 years in prison”.
Five of them.
Killed by an ICE officer while driving a 2-ton vehicle at him.
I’m not keen on the ban on selling churches to other religions. In a secular society that’s someone’s private property and anyways if someone from another religion wants to buy it that’s les money to them and more money to me.
I’d like to see the end of ‘hate’ crimes, just call them crimes, and attempted murder dealt with as harshly as murder. But rest seems sensible
The BAFTAs are currently providing a sterling example of the ridiculousness of ‘hate crime’ legislation, as black actors go into frothing indignation that a word -one in common use in rap videos, that it – was shouted by a man as a result of his disability (Tourettes).
Race Card vs Disability Card. How can this be decided!
The audience had been warned before the ceremony that tics or involuntary swearing could occur, and Davidson received large applause inside the hall. After the incident, host Alan Cumming asked for “understanding” for the “strong and offensive language.” He reminded the crowd that Tourette syndrome was a disability and tics were involuntary, and said: “We apologize if you are offended tonight.”
Damn, I need to get diagnosed with Tourettes.
Won’t satisfy the wolves obviously – Not sure if you saw the last week where people were calling for an Italian facing a Spanish club accused of racism to be arrested and given a custodial sentence. I mentioned we need to think about repatriation and certainly complete cessation of Islamic migration but the rot does run far, far deeper.
Christian denominations selling redundant church buildings to other Christian denominations is, IMHO, perfectly acceptable. The resident population of The City of London has declined by about 98% from its peak so it only needs a handful of Anglican church buildings and the CoE has very sensibly allowed various groups of refugees in Greater London to use the spares to worship in their own language.
I should object to selling church buildings to ISIS or worshippers of Kali but not for use as a Synagogue
We just need an additional category of listed building ” Church-1 of- not for use of or resale to Moohamedans or use as a mosque- er thats it”
Other than that do what you want with it.
One of our problems is that cities are full of magnificent looking & empty buildings which very few can consider due to the multiplicity of regulations
Why would you not want to sell a church building to worshippers of Kali? They have temples at army bases in Britain – at least one of them was a disused church. I am talking about the Ghurkas, whose battle-cry is: –
“Jai Maha Kali, Ayo Gorkhali…” “Great is the Goddess Kali, the Ghurkas are here.” She is worshipped as the Goddess of Battle in her aspect of Durga, complete with necklace of skulls.
Their is a terrifying video of Joanna Lumley, who was presented with a khukri by grateful Ghurkas, (a very unusual event,) and as she fiercely brandishes it, you could see they approved, some of them perhaps feeling that some aspect of Kali was actually amongst them.
“Reform is now promising to deport 288,000 a year (a curiously precise number) “
Which is nothing like the predictions of how hot the UK will be in 100 years time, or how many people were saved by covid vaccines, or how many people could be ‘lifted out of poverty’ by increasing welfare…….
“Reform is now promising to deport 288,000 a year (a curiously precise number)”
tsk. It’s obvious how they got to 288,000. It’s 24,000 a month.
There’s a massive difference between giving an unusually precise number as an observation of events, and giving one as the intended operating capacity of a designed system.
A Boeing 757-200 in all-economy configuration will get you a little over 250 seats, and is the sort of aircraft that you can lease for not-silly-money while still having a suitable range for deportation flights. But, you’ll almost certainly not want to use the exit rows for deportees, you might need to ferry crew around, etc. so 240 available seats doesn’t sound too far off.
Allowing a 1:2 ratio of security to deportees — i.e. putting security in the aisle seats of a 3+3 configuration airliner — they will have been working on 160 deportees per flight, 5 flights per day, 360 days per year.
Five flights per day similarly won’t be a figure someone’s pulled out their backside, either. It’ll be an optimum based on having a fixed number of aircraft (probably 7 allowing for maintenance downtime and assuming one round-trip every 24h).
When the potato bites hard,
And blog views are low,
And resentment rides high,
But IQ won’t grow,
And he’s not changing his ways,
Taking socialist roads.
Then Nige, Nige will tear us apart again
Nige, Nige will tear us apart… again
This idiot never matured beyond his teenage years, did he?
You are too generous: I was more politically mature before I was thirteen.
Most of us were.
Why’s my funding so low?
Even those on my side…
Is my theory that flawed?
That these gigs have run dry
Yet there’s still this grift
that I’ve kept through my life?
Then Rupe, Rupe will tear us apart again
Rupe, Rupe will tear us apart….again
Understatement of the year, for sure
“deport 288,000 a year (a curiously precise number) with five flights a day”
It’s not a curiously precise number, it’s just under 157 people per flight over 365 days. That’s probably the realistic figure for the average number of deportees they can put on a flight.
Remove a few flights for things like reduced numbers on Christmas Day and it probably evens out to 160. So they’re probably figuring on using 737s or the like.
Meanwhile over at the Splendid Isolation blog, Kim would probably be mourning the low carrying capacity of helicopters.
If they’re not prepared to self-remove then, given that they’ve already told us by their presence that they’re criminals, I’d favour pushing them out of Hercs (with parachutes. I am not a total bastard).
We might need more Hercs, tho’.
Hercs were my preferred choice. Pack ’em in, push ’em out. I’m less fussed about parachutes, that takes training.
The C-130 no longer serves with the RAF. It was supremely uncomfortable to passenge in. They’d have to use A400s. I’m sure they are no more comfy in paradrop config.
They carry more than Hercs, though, and can go higher. All good. C17s probably better.
Neurodivergent is the code word for trans, isn’t it? What does the T in LGBTQ+ stand for? Exactly what is a sightline and how does this differ from line of sight, if at all? Or is it just a failed attempt at an elegant variation on “sights”?
To give him credit, the Econodivergent Elytist is usually pretty good at grammar, and his keyboard skills are a shitload better than some other commentators I could name. Two slip-ups, or should we call them slop-ups, in the space of two sentences is a departure from the norm, that may signal a wish to appear less awkwardly academic. Stephen Potter might have called it Onedownmanship.
Neurodivergent is the code word for trans, isn’t it?
Whatever it is, it’s more cultural Marxist bullshit designed to set us all at sixes and sevens.
NO – see my reply to MvdR
NO! It bloody well is not.
Neurodivergent includes those on the autistic spectrum and (some claim) ADHD. It is nothing to do with “trans-sexuals”.
Do your homework before typing.
Aha. This is presumably a practice that His Elyness approves of.

And that is an ABSOLUTE FUCKING OUTRAGE. “Oh, we have too many ngrs in the loony bin” so they let the animal free to kill those two beautiful kids and that blameless bloke. I reacted badly at that original news. It could have been my daughter.
Has he blown a gasket over Labour doing away with jury trials yet because we can be absolutely certain he would if Farage proposed it?
Is that all? So in an entire Parliament, they’ll only remove the net immigration from just one year of Sunak?
And that’s only if they get their own immigration down to pretty much zero.
And assuming they actually manage to hit their target. How often do governments manage that? And Reform will have the judiciary, snivel service, BBC and probably even Border Farce trying to stop them.
There’s what, 10 million immigrants in Britain? That’s at least 35 years at that rate. And that’s without even starting on the second generation. Any lefties worried that Britain will become ‘horribly white’ after a Reform government can relax.
There’s such a thing as an LGBT community? I rather thought the T bit was antimatter to the rest.
Same as the Moslem ‘commnunity’ where the Shi’a and Sunni hate each other more than they hate the Jews. But it’s convenient for those who want to claim to speak for “the community” to have as much within it as possible.
