Thankfully, Labour are finished.

Betraying British people, Left Wing judges and Two tier policing has seen to that.

No control over illegal immigrants, who are living the high life at tax payers expense.

Economic migrants are perfectly welcome however.

Calling them irregular and gaslighting British people as well as allowing the Palestine mob to run riot in our country will be their legacy

SNP have been filling the country with foreign nationals for years and towns are unrecognisable.

Green party for some bizarre reason is a pro Palestine party now 

Getting that crap out of our country would be welcome 

Every Labour supporter is complicit in the appalling attacks on women and girls as the illegals should not be here

The police are protecting illegals over British people and you are statistically more like to be arrested with your own national flag than a Palestine flag 

Jesus Christ it’s a mess

What a load of, quite frankly, racist bile. Scotland still has a shortage of working age people. Coming from someone who, I assume is Scottish, living in another country, this is the epitome of hypocrisy. Though. Given the sh!te that's going on down south with the far right taking control. you are where you probably like to be.

High Life 😆

Stats please on the flag claim.

I go down to England a lot for work and see first hand the amount of "illegals" on electric bikes with food delivery sacks.  In Leicester, you can hardly cross the pavement at certain times without having to dodge one.  It's not right and neither is the fact that people have become so lazy we pay migrants 90p a delivery to bring cold burgers to our doors.  The UK has created a market and hardly any of the existing population wanted to work in it so somebody else comes in and fills the hole

Migration needs to be controlled and you can't blame the migrants, all peoples have always followed the money

That’s the typical response down here from Labour and people of that persuasion.

People are no longer accepting that narrative and the easy generic nonsense of ‘If you don’t agree with what we are doing and what’s going on then you are racist’ 

It doesn’t wash anymore.

No government in our lifetime has done so much damage in so little time and we need a government that can end this madness, give the courts and police strong clear directives.

Common sense is on its way back, and that drives fear into the left.

If people can’t support the country they live in, then they should go live in the country they support.

I love the romantic notion that this country was a safe,trouble free place before the boats came Attacks against women and girls were unheard of and if we get rid of “the illegals” then we’ll go back to being a law abiding country as White,British men would never do such a thing They are all too busy putting their jackets over puddles to help little old ladies across the road 

Scott should we stop at illegals or should we just kick out anyone who isn’t white ?

And racists often hide in plain site, using the excuse that all ails are due to the influx of immigrants, without ANY real proof. The fact is, the vast majority of non UK citizens that arrive on our shores do so legally and contribute to, not take from, our economy. Of those who do make the perilous journey, ask yourself this. Would I risk my life if I thought I could survive properly where I was?

Also. I feel you're getting this backward.

Yes. Our resources are finite. But they would be less so if our taxation system was fairer.

Look not down at those who are trying to survive but UP at those who horde their wealth and their greed demands they want even more of what they can't possibly spend.

There's a lot of truth in your first paragraph. 

The comments on any crime by a non white go through the roof on social media compared to a similar offence by Buckfast Billy.

So. The time of reckoning MAY be soon for Trump.

Trumps latest attempt to stop the release of the Epstein files. It allows for the DOJ to circumvent the vote to release the files as they will be part of an ongoing investigation. Will it work? Quite possibly but those who care will need to keep asking WHY? at every turn to highlight the skulduggery.

Navy changes rules of engagement after Russian ship tries to blind RAF pilots

[stlucifer]

So Trump has unilateral discussions with Russia about a third nation and demands that nation capitulates and allows its sovereign territory to be carved up and given away to its aggressors? Add to that it is demanded by the orange oaf that that country diminishes its ability to defend itself by reducing its army AND is prevented from joining like minded nations in a pact to protect itself. Anyone else think those pictures of "blowing Bubba" have been brought out of cold storage?

So Labour, in desperation, remove the two child cap on allowances. 

This will cost the country billions and reward people who have decided, if they actually decide, to have lots of children who are, seemingly, in poverty. 

I'd suggest people have children if they can support them, that's radical.

Police Scotland have passed a report into allegations of corporate homicide by the Scottish Government during the Covid pandemic to prosecutors, the Express can reveal.

Detectives have been investigating the claims for more than two and a half years as part of Operation Koper, the sprawling probe into potentially avoidable deaths in care homes and other public settings. They have now asked the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) for "advice and guidance" on the next steps to take in the inquiry.

A complaint was submitted to police in March 2023 by healthcare campaigners Lesley Roberts, Roger Livermore and Rab Wilson.

They alleged that decisions taken by senior ministers including Nicola Sturgeon and Jeane Freeman – notably the infamous policy of moving untested and Covid-positive patients into care homes to free up hospital beds – amounted to corporate homicide under health and safety law.
