There’s a lot to unpack there. Whether I will be able to fully do so now is questionable.

Suffice to say that whilst every incident is hugely to be regretted they are all committed by individual criminals, whatever their motivations might be. To try to draw a link between them, as you and others do, isn’t going to help anything. It’s going to make it worse. We need to separate the criminals from the good guys and not categorise them as a group linked by irrelevant issues, like religion or immigration status.

Everyone knows we have a problem with illegal migration but that is no reason to attribute any perception of an increase in violent crime to it. Perception being all it is because every report into this that I have seen does not support the assumptions.

I think it’s another assumption that there are lots of people fed up with government inaction over the small boat issue. An assumption that seems illogical as we have a new government who have hardly discovered where their offices are yet. They have promised a new approach to try to kickstart some progress with an intractable problem. I doubt it will satisfy most of those who post here, but the rest?

We will see.

Wrong.

Those being labelled as Far Right are better described as yobs, hooligans or boneheads.

These people are exploiting an awful tragedy, in which children were murdered, to promote an ideology that is divisive and unrepresentative of the vast majority of British citizens.

Those showing even a sliver of sympathy for them or their ideology should be ashamed of themselves.

From Prospect magazine

With economic pressures only increasing, the country’s collective psyche still scarred by the unspeakable psychological violence of Covid and lockdown, and a change of government that looks like it’s not going to change much else, communities are stretched to breaking point and something has to give.

There’s a fine line between riot and rebellion; how you define an event depends on which side you stand. Martin Luther King once said, “A riot is the language of the unheard.” Last week, Harehills spoke. But did anyone listen?

Possibly, although they were reacting to something that happened to their own local community, and not something miles away that had no personal connections.

Once it got out of control it became mindless violence.

Not as I, and as expect, most others will read it.

One group was initiating violence. Another was responding to it. Hence they were “counter-protesting”.

Without the first the second would not have been there.

If you take a circular view of history then what we are seeing now is essentially a late stage civilisation imploding on itself. The West as we have known it has enjoyed a good run but probably reached a nadir probably around 1913.

Then we had WW1 and everything started going down hill after that. Its the welfare state which in turn attracted the third-world that will ultimately blow it up but it is possible that when things really start collapsing, and the welfare state model just cannot function anymore, then many migrants will drift away.

They are here purely for economic reasons. Turn the tap off and they go. They have no heritage, no links, no myths to bind them in the West and will just go away eventually.

Best bet now for anybody is to get a trade, knuckle down and graft hard and just try and avoid as much 'diversity' as possible.

Because it will be the economy that offers a solution ultimately. Just have to try to position yourself, and your family, to see that out.

Insurgency starts with your buying and earning choices. Become pro-your own in as much as you possibly can.
