Can anyone save Britain from self-destruction?
The Spectator ^ | September 5, 2025 | Douglas Murray

Posted on 09/05/2025 11:39:52 AM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Tens of thousands of people turned out on the streets last week to protest against mass immigration. The protestors were promptly labelled ‘racist’ by their own government, ‘far-right’ by the New York Times and as having links to ‘neo-Nazis’ by the Guardian. The protests in question happened in cities across Australia, including Sydney – but frankly those sentences could have been written about similar protests in Britain and in almost any western country.

Coincidentally, the past weekend also saw the ten-year anniversary of the German chancellor Angela Merkel opening the doors of Europe, saying ‘We can manage’ and allowing Europe to become the home of anyone in the world who wanted to move in.

Merkel may have been more explicit than some of her counterparts, but similar open-door policies have afflicted almost every western country over recent years. In America the backlash to that protest has already begun, with the Donald Trump administration successfully starting not just to enforce its borders but to return people who are in the country illegally. But apart from the United States there isn’t a country in the West that has been serious about returning people who have come into the country illegally. Quite the opposite. In the UK the government has successfully challenged the courts over their rulings on hotels for illegal migrants. Questioned about this by the media, government ministers have admitted that the rights of illegal migrants trump those of British subjects who have paid taxes all of their lives. Indeed they have made it explicit that the rights of an illegal migrant who has never contributed to this country supersede the rights of people who are British and are down on their luck. The sort of people whom the welfare state was meant to support.

Tommy Robinson is their best chance.

Probably but they'll just arrest him again.

There’s always hope. I think the Whiteys have seen what Trump is doing and have realized that they might be able to save their countries.

If it appears that he has even one chance in a hundred, the British Deep State will kill him. It could be in a car “accident”. Or maybe he’ll “commit suicide” while sitting in a jail cell for a minor offense.

Bring back Winston Churchill!

A quote from an 1899 book by Winston Churchill, "The River War", in which he describes Muslims he apparently observed during Kitchener's campaign in the Sudan

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science - the science against which it had vainly struggled - the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

Churchill would be arrested today.

“They made their bed. Let them sleep in it.”

My theory is that this all ties back to the public vote o. BREXIT. None of the major parties really supported that decision. The EU was furious. Would it be difficult to believe that the French are pushing illegal immigrants to the English Channel where a bunch of NGO’s run by Davos are equipping them for the boat ride?

And given that the Conservative Party was lukewarm or privately opposed to Brexit, they are conspiring with Labor to house and protect the immigrants?

The destruction of the UK is a NWO/WEF thing, not by the people but by those in the Government who are owned by the ultra wealthy elite who comprise the NWO elite and the WEF. The people themselves are the only ones who can stop them by taking their government back thus by ousting the monarchy and every single government official. By force if necessary but it must be done or western civilized England is toast.

The British must hang every member of the current government, and then hang the collaborators.

Hang them all until dead.

Brits were more or less in favor of EU membership until the mass immigration of Muslims and Africans began. They voted for Brexit hoping to get control of their borders. The establishment resisted for years, then dragged it out, and when it finally passed it was all for nothing. Conservative governments promising to control immigration just ramped up to nose-bleed levels. It’s as if Brexit never happened.

Angela Merkel. Look at her past..
Merkel was born in Hamburg in West Germany. Her family moved to East Germany when she was an infant. A member of the East German Communist Youth (FDJ), Merkel obtained a doctorate in quantum chemistry in 1986 and worked as a research scientist until 1989.[10] She then entered politics in the wake of the Revolutions of 1989, briefly serving as deputy spokeswoman for the first democratically elected government of East Germany, led by Lothar de Maizière.(Wikpedia)

You're both being unfair.

The King has no power. It's a job. And part of the job description is to read whatever speech the current Parliament hands him.

If the King went off script, he'd be removed from the throne. Parliament might even abolish the monarchy.

The sheiks bought Europe, and are taking possession. The establishment has betrayed the people. There is no fixing it short of a revolution.

YES, King Charles can if he has the Balls for it.

It's bloody obvious that the King is a big part of the problem. If he's not Muslim himself, he certainly likes to snuggle up with them.

God.

But they need to turn to Him in repentance and seek it.

The Muslims have something the nazis couldn’t achieve, an toehold on the British isles.

London is rotten with the Muhammadans!

The only way I can see it happening is if popular sentiment is able to leverage the King to act.He has very little real power but he is The King and has the force of a history going back a thousand years. If he abandons his people to go with the new world order he is nothing… but in the way. It would take a hell of a lot of people rising in anger to get this going. Do such numbers exist?
