So Boris Johnson is now recording videos to promote this nonsense also.

It reminds me of various Blackadder skits... many a true word said in jest. These are gold.

The bitter irony after having waited longer than any other heir to become monarch.
I think it was caught fairly early. I can think of few people in the world who will get better health care than him. I would guess he survives this. I hear you re: the irony. Somehow I don't think it was a job he was pining for, which is often misunderstood. He was probably more concerned about giving his son a chance of. some relative freedom before the burden falls on him. Fingers crossed he gets through this

This is one of the most dangerous people in the U.K. right now. She is divisive and her so called lived experience doesn’t match that of other minorities. It infuriates me that she is constantly given a platform as if she represents the views of all black British

^ Curious as to who this is, Federberg, and what she was saying in the above video that is currently unavailable. Thanks mate!

Good Lord she is pompous and overbearing. She does her cause a discredit, apart from being wrong.

she's utterly unlikeable! She probably goes thru life thinking people are being racist towards her, when in reality she's just an a$$ :D

^ Truth. In reality, she is the one looking at the world through the callous eyes of racism and victim adoration. It is in the end all about power and wealth redistribution for these folks--not about kinder, gentler people and nation-states.

Immigration used to mean that folks came from another region and ASSIMILATED into the culture that welcomed them. The rise of Wahhabism in Sunni Islam has been problematic for decades. Dearborn, Michigan no longer resembles USA in many areas--you would think you are in a Muslim country. You stop in a convenience store and men and women are in religious garb and they don't permit beer or wine to be sold in their stores, etc. It is jarring.

the city of Bradford is often called Bradfordistan for the very same reason now. Zero effort to assimilate. You can be damn sure that wouldn't happen anywhere in the Middle East.

I think they have every right to choose what they sell in their stores to be honest. You don't have to shop there. The bigger issue is assimilating different cultures on the scale that is currenly taking place. Again, every Western nation is being flooded with non-Western cultural immigrants on an unprecedented scale. Anyone who things this is "organic" is kidding themselves. It's deliberate. But for what ends? That's the bigger question... and it goes beyond politics.
