Ever tried Swedish herring? It can't be this unpalatable.

Maybe we should introduce removal of hands as they do in their homelands.

Children waiting for a ride on a horse-drawn roundabout near King's Cross, London, which is touring the back streets in the area.

The fare for a ride is an empty jam jar. 1934.

Eight crimes every single day. That is the rate at which Britain's churches are being targeted, according to Freedom of Information data compiled by the Countryside Alliance covering 2022 to 2024. Over three years, 9,148 recorded incidents: theft, burglary, criminal damage, arson, violence. The worst-hit areas are London, West Yorkshire and Greater Manchester.

The establishment's response has been to reach, as always, for the most comfortable explanation. Lead thieves. Opportunistic vandals. General social breakdown. Move along. But examine the demographics and the comfort evaporates.

West Yorkshire recorded 1,121 incidents across the three-year period, the highest of any force area in England. In Bradford, 30.5% of residents identify as Muslim, more than four times the national average. Across West Yorkshire as a whole, one in seven residents is Muslim, double the national figure. Greater Manchester recorded 642 incidents. Manchester city's Muslim population reached 22.3% at the 2021 census, up from 15.8% a decade earlier. London, now topping the single-year rankings with 561 recorded church crimes, has a Muslim population of 15%, more than double the national average, concentrated heavily in the eastern and northeastern boroughs.

Then there is Kent, with 655 recorded incidents, second only to West Yorkshire over the full three-year period. Kent does not appear in the census as a high-Muslim-population county. Commentators have cited this as the anomaly that breaks the pattern. It does the opposite.

Kent is the primary landing and processing point for small boat crossings. Folkestone, Dover, Manston and the surrounding districts have housed tens of thousands of young male migrants, predominantly from Muslim-majority countries: Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Eritrea, Sudan. The census records settled residents. It does not capture transient populations in hotels and temporary accommodation. The crime data reflects a reality that official demographics cannot measure. Kent is not the exception to the argument. Kent is its confirmation.

It also raises a larger question about the reliability of every figure cited above. If the census structurally undercounts the migrant population in Kent, it almost certainly undercounts in the urban dispersal areas too. The 2021 figures were already four years old when today's crime data was compiled. Net migration ran at record levels in 2022 and 2023 alone. The true demographic picture across London, West Yorkshire and Greater Manchester is likely more pronounced than any published number suggests.

Consider what would happen if the pattern ran the other way. If mosques in rural Lincolnshire were being attacked at eight incidents daily, if the worst-hit force areas mapped neatly onto districts with high concentrations of white working-class men, the Home Secretary would be at a podium within the week. Millions in protective security funding would follow. The BBC would run the series.

Instead, the Metropolitan Police refused to respond to the Countryside Alliance FOI request at all. Ten other forces declined or failed to provide usable figures. The ONS confirmed it holds no centralised data on crimes against Christian buildings as a category. The Observatory on Intolerance Against Christians noted in 2024 that secular media routinely strip the Christian dimension from coverage of attacks on church property.

Britain's churches are the oldest continuous institutions in most of the communities they serve. Some have stood for a thousand years. They are being stripped, smashed and burned at a rate that would prompt emergency legislation if the targets were different.

The geography of the damage and the geography of demographic change overlap with a precision that deserves honest public scrutiny. Demanding that scrutiny is not prejudice. Refusing to provide it is negligence.

If you said you were sending your daughter to, say, Afghanistan or Pakistan on holiday, people would call you insane.

But if you express concern that your daughter could be at risk from men coming from those same places, suddenly you’re labelled a bigot.

Round and round it goes, until we reach the point where schoolgirls are handed rape alarms just to get through their day.

And what about the boys? Do they get alarms too? Because they need them as well.... https://x.com/GBNEWS/status/2041736996884795846

She needs to concentrate at what she's good at - eating all the pies.: Here is Laura Moodie from the Scottish Greens waxing lyrical about migrants.

Meanwhile police at a school in her constituency of Dumfries have just given out rape alarms because hotel migrants have been hanging around and taking photos of kids.😡

How have we got to this point? https://x.com/hoodedclaw1974/status/2042107252912382297

⁣From a friend in Beirut:

“They bombed highly populated and non-evacuated areas. Last I heard there were 254 dead and 1169 injured. The day before, at the time they bombed, (my husband) and I were passing in that area. The casualties will rise because there are still people under the rubble. This is higher than the Beirut port explosion. And they are threatening that they will continue their unannounced raids for 48 hours. So nobody knows where they are going to bomb today. We don’t know anymore where it’s safe. And the sad thing is that they are getting away with everything they do and no one is able to stop them.”

All this because Benjamin Netanyahu understands that peace will mean the end of his tenure as Israel’s Prime Minister.

The people of Lebanon suffer because of the ego of one man.

A man who heads a nation of genocidal maniacs.

Where is Europe?

Where is Russia?

Where is China?

Don’t bother asking where America is.

We lost our moral compass a long time ago.

We stand with Israel.

We stand with the murderers.

A couple of comments regarding Israel picked up in a Financial Times article today. It seems even FT readers are viewing Israel as a pariah State: .............. "


"........................Much like when the penny dropped for The Godfather at the meeting of the five families that “it was Barzini all along”, the world now realises that Israel has been the prime instigator of the troubles in the Middle East and will always be the blocker to peace.

It’s given its hand away and the shutters are falling from the eyes of the majority of public in the West. It is time to sanction and isolate the country.................." ".............The chosen people’s air force is focusing its bombing on civilians................".............. "


.................. "Uri Tsafon (or sometimes Uri Tzafon).

Two words that should make the world SHUDDER. Apparently, in this conflict, a certain nation-state has decided to change their borders.

Shockingly, the border is being extended through Southern Lebanon, up to the Litani River. All that land being surreptitiously added to the land mass of a certain nation-state. Irredentism made manifest.

The above group is re-assigning Hebrew names to cities and villages. Yep. Cannot make this stuff up !

Guess the map makers will need to bring their A game to keep up with military land acquisition by a certain nation-state.

No words. Not even creative enough to generate a fiction this dystopian. Uri Tsafon (Tzafon). Look it up............."

URI TSAFON: Uri Tsafon is a movement advocating for Jewish settlement in southern Lebanon, founded in March 2024, with the goal of establishing a permanent Israeli presence in the region.
Background and Founding
Uri Tsafon, which translates to "Awaken, O North," was established in memory of Yisrael Socol, an Israeli soldier who dreamed of Jewish settlements in Lebanon. The movement aims to promote the idea that southern Lebanon is part of the historical Land of Israel and seeks to reclaim this territory ..................
