Anger is boiling over in the UK pressure cooker, and it is hard to see anybody in power finding the courage to use the steam release valve before it explodes. On the issue of immigration, it now boils down to the state vs its citizens.
What began as a flag protest--English people putting up the St George's flag as an act of defiance against government indifference to their anger--has spread to Wales and Scotland. Larger and larger crowds are gathering, and confrontations with police are becoming common.
The latest outrage--a High Court decision ruling that a migrant hotel the Epping Council had planned to close--must remain open because the rights of migrants to housing outweigh the rights of British citizens--has ramped tensions up several notches. Of course it has.
The Epping hotel case was about more than planning law. It was a litmus test for where the loyalties of this Labour government lie.
I went to support the peaceful, patriotic protestors in Epping, because I share their concerns about illegal migrants being housed in communities.
Starmer’s government, on the other hand, has shown itself to be on the side of illegal migrants who have broken into our county.
Yvette Cooper has used taxpayer money – your money – to keep open a hotel housing them. The Government’s lawyers proceeded to argue that accommodating illegal migrants was in the “national interest”.
In court they even argued the right of illegal migrants to free hotels is more important than the rights of the British people, and they won.
The Home Secretary argued an injunction would encourage more protests. The great irony is that this decision – which puts two fingers up to the legitimate anger of the British public – will surely inspire even more.
Councils can and should still act to close hotels. If they don’t, residents will rightly ask, whose side are they on?
It is probably too late for the UK to save themselves.
Protesting while electing muzzies as mayor of many of their major cities.
Smart.
I hope that the Brits are finally realizing that the left is corrupt, inept, evil, and repulsive. In all aspects. Every day.
They are turds that must be flushed. Flushed repeatedly.
Go Brits, make the left afraid. Very afraid.
The only thing they may be too late for is to solve it peacefully and without great cost.
That is rhetorical, right?
Any society that does not protect its women and children is not worth saving.
Goodbye UK ... hello Islam
The longer it takes for them to get serious about turning things around the harder it will be. They have already tolerated too much and have been very slow to react.
On the contrary, they may just be starting to save themselves.
But it will get a lot uglier if they are serious.
Only 20 years too late.
Their entire establishment are post-modern cynics or outright marxists, as evidenced by their unreformed “trotskyist” apparatchik and political climber Prime Minister, Keir Starmer.
The nation is literally hated by its elites and its government.
Agree
Prayers for Great Britain.
I’m actually surprised there haven’t been attacks on judges. Both here & there. None of them seem to have any interest on protecting the citizenry, or even abiding by the laws of the country.
The same way Biden got the win in 2020.
I hope they shut the country down. But will their government seize their bank accounts like Canada’s mouse-face dictator did?
there is a way out
china recently knocked down a mosque and put a public toilet in it’s place
seems like a blueprint

If they somehow elect patriot MPs they can start cutting the welfare for immigrants. By the time it is completely eliminated all of them would have moved to another country for handouts.
The situation in the UK feels like a replay of the 1930s: Muslims as the aggressive Nazis, elites and politicians in a Chamberlain-like rush to appease them, and the indigenous Brits embodying the spirit of Churchill, trying to rouse the public in defiance.
