By far the most violently racist things I’ve ever heard against black people were said to me by the Indian guy who runs a corner shop near me in London.
The real source of Britain’s soft power: football.

This is why I think the Rwanda scheme might actually work, if (big if) near 100% of those crossing the Channel end up there. The incentives completely change once the option is between asylum in Greece or Rwanda. UK’s pull factor would completely vanish.

There’s a good Uighur restaurant on Blackstock Road called Dilara. Like Uighur culture more generally, the cuisine is an interesting mix between Turkic and Chinese influences. Would recommend.

Anglofuturism is within reach 🇬🇧 Walk around the clean, progressive bits of London, and you can feel it. Vernacular architecture and reminders of industrial heritage framed by striking modernity and urban greenery. Time to seize the future! 🚀

I don't see what some of you guys love about central anyway. Born and bred in London and I avoid that place - too overcrowded for my liking (I prefer serenity). I appreciate the cultural heritage sites but it ends there. I rather spend the evening in Crystal Palace or Blackheath.
London, mid-morning, the Saturday after payday... Does anyone have stats on what's happening to London?
@lucaajwatson @realhansard Yes, it takes the shine right off, doesn't it?
“Can my mate come to the afters, he’s sound don’t worry” The mate:
Well, well, well if it isn't the consequence of your party's actions (or lack thereof). Us plebs don't get an SOS button. That poor man in Hartlepool certainly didn't when he was killed by a man brought in by your party's incompetence.
🚨Today in #Wycombe, I used my SOS device for the first time, as a precaution. ⚠️This gentleman who accosted me about Gaza kept his distance and did not threaten me but I felt it wise to plan on escalation. 🔗My view is here: stevebaker.info/2024/01/my-rep…
@lucaajwatson @jhallwood My Pakistani and Bengali origin colleagues quite openly say things about the Indians in our office that would get me fired if I said them.
It's difficult to comprehend the magnitude of the losses on both sides. What an appalling waste of life. x.com/ukdefjournal/s…
Britain estimates 450,000 Russian troops killed or wounded - Britain estimates that 450,000 Russian military personnel have been killed or wounded and over 10,000 Russian armoured vehicles have been destroyed in Ukraine. Click the image to read more. ukdefencejournal.org.uk/britain-estima…
“Just do half and see how you go on”
Live your life like this dude and you’ll not go far wrong 😆
That’s because they’re transferring every story they hear about men onto this archetype to maintain their world view. Every cartel kidnapping, every meth head stalker, every subway random puncher they transform into this guy.
Liberal white women will look you straight in the eyes and tell you that these guys are the biggest threat to their safety.
@lucaajwatson Ofc these communities acknowledging this issue doesn’t fit the narrative that they’re oppressed by persons of non-colour and that everything ethnic Britons do is to oppress them…
@lucaajwatson I had Indian colleagues in Calcutta who said by far the worst racism they faced when they visited Britain WAS FROM BRITISH INDIANS
Black people who are not indoctrinated by the radical progressive BS are well aware of this. South Asians and Arabs are much more "anti-black" than white folk. No idea why people try to force 'POC solidarity'.
By far the most violently racist things I’ve ever heard against black people were said to me by the Indian guy who runs a corner shop near me in London.
It’s interesting to me how prevalent the sense is on the left that some people are located at the right point in the status hierarchy such that they’re just simply above the law. Seems like kind of a right-wing concept, but it’s pervasive on the modern left.
A masked police officer arresting the Chair of the Philosophy department at Emory University for taking part in anti-genocide protests. This feels like a historic image.
This morning vs 5 minutes ago. Just goes to show you how quick things can turn around.
Said this before but if you are looking for a political antecedent to Trump than Berlusconi is your man
the first thing they did when they set up a "liberated" zone was to establish border control
A "no comment" sign, really. Kinda like "Welcome to the gender equality zone! Women must have a male escort & wear a skirt."
Crippling labour shortage latest: "too many Deliveroo riders"
So why is the pay so terrible? (Apart from the lack of tips!) Well, Deliveroo’s “at least minimum wage” claim is while you are on a job. It doesn’t take into account the wait for orders. And, in simple terms, there’s too many riders. And, yes, you can earn extra pay at 3am
