Quote from: Michael Rolls on Yesterday at 05:31:37 AMso the Tories, unsurprisingly, have lost heavily, with 473 councilors losing their seats. What did surprise me was that only 185 of those losses were to Labour, with the other opposition parties gaining 288 seats.

I wasn't at all surprised, I'm a member of Momentum & there is a huge, but totally unreported, utter contempt for Starmer & the official Labour Party by many former staunch Labour supporters.

Kirkby Stephen, Sedbergh, and Kirkby Lonsdale.  Having walked through all three towns, plus a couple of other villages, it was a blessed relief (and a bit of a surprise) not to have seen a single non-white face at any time.

Yes, I am absolutely sure that England (at least the Scots seem a little more particular!) will eventually become a muslim country, though not until well after my lifetime.  Yet, the last parts of the country to fall will be the small towns and villages in the most beautiful parts of the country.

I sometime try to imagine how things will be in such a situation.  Without our cities and remaining industrial areas I wonder how poor we will become, quite apart from the ensuing severe religious requirements.

We live in a very small rural town with the nearest other towns at least 15 miles away in any direction, but even we have our fair share of non-whites.

The Islamic takeover which I've spoken about for the last ten years won't happen across the whole country as there are enclaves in Muslim countries that are not Muslim.

What I mean is that the UK will become an Islamic country in all the main centres of power & in Government.

"Isn't it funny? When I told you 10 years ago that the UK would become an Islamic country you all laughed at me – well I have to say, you're not laughing now, are you?"

Meanwhile over the pond...

In New York, a man hears a burglar breaking into his home. He calls the police. 45 minutes later the police arrive to find the man and his wife dead, and nobody else in the house and all of their belongings gone.

In Tennessee, a man hears a burglar breaking into his house. He calls the police. While on the line, the police dispatcher hears 13 "bangs" from a gun. The man on the phone says, "don't hurry - I got 'em." When the police arrive the find a dead burglar with 13 bullet holes - all center-mass, with about a 2″ group. The police officer says: "Nice grouping!"

In Texas, a man hears a burglar breaking into his house. He calls the police. While on the line the police dispatcher hears 7 very loud 'bangs', followed by the sound of a magazine hitting the floor, and the click of another magazine going into the handle and the slide slamming shut. Then he hears another 7 loud bangs, followed by the same sounds as before. The man says, "no need to hurry, I got him!" When the police arrive, they find a dead burglar with 14 holes in his head, in 2 small groupings. The police officer says: "nice groupings, but next time take a breath between reloads and you can get them all in the same group..."

Meanwhile in Bradford, his muslim brothers celebrate another win, I'm sure there were Pakistani flags draped around some of them.  God help this country

Our country is becoming - and almost certainly will become - a majority muslim nation in time.
We can all see it coming, and yet for some reason most people are afraid of supporting the people who will do something to stop it.

Quote from: Diasi on May 04, 2024, 07:17:46 PMThanks Cassandra for expanding on this.

Correct if I'm wrong but my understanding is that you can use force, including lethal force, if an intruder leads you to believe that they are armed even if they turn out not to be, under the CPS rules of not having to wait to be actually attacked.

It must be quite refreshing to now live in a country where you don't have to stand placidly while an intruder attacks you or risk a life sentence if you protect yourself.

Hear hear.
Having heard about instances of people being prosecuted for simply defending themselves, it is reassuring to learn that British Justice can, at least sometimes, come down on the right side.
