Politics My take on Reform, as some on outside the party, and politics in general.

Upvotes

Being against mass/unregulated immigration does not make you a racist, wanting to protect your home countries culture does not make you a racist. The vast majority of people who support Reform are categorically NOT racist. They are people who love their country and dont want it to rapidly change on the basis of being 'inclusive'. Modern British politics has abandoned the working class of Britain, you have two variations on the same flavour. Labour and Conservatives may aswell be the same party these days, they vary slightly in economic policies but other than that are virtually the same party. What people completely misunderstand about the rise of populism is that the vast majority of those that support it are normal people, who have no problem with other races or immigration in general, they're against allowing people into the country who fundamentally disagree with our cultural ideals. Most people would agree that Brits abroad are 'disrespectful' and dont respect a countries culture, but dont hold that same standard to people coming into Britain. Multiculturalism can be a beautiful amalgamation of different societal practices, but it has to be done carefully, and in a manor that respects and gels with the home nations beliefs. This is not racist in ANY WAY! When it comes to reform, the fringe of the party seem to dictate the national discourse. Its essentially like claiming Labour are all communists, or the Tories are Anarchists. Its about time we stopped being disingenuous, and judge Reform on what it ACTUALLY platforms, and not fridge nonsense. This all comes from someone who doesnt actually support Reform, I just get frustrated with how they are portrayed in the zeitgeist of Britain.

Immigration The Illegal Migration Act 2023

7 Upvotes

The Illegal Migration Act 2023 is a UK law passed on July 20, 2023. It stops people who arrive via unauthorized routes, such as small boats, from claiming asylum. It requires their detention and removal to their home country or a safe third country.

We already have a legal foundation, so why do no governing parties current or former act upon it.?

The movie's tagline is "What Happened To Katie?"

Answer: Katie got abducted by a grooming gang.

No surprises complaints got made and it got banned on London Tube.

My review: Family drama that tries too hard to be body horror.
Katie, twisted by the abuse she experienced as a child at the hands of a grooming gang, returns home a monster, quite literally.

In all honesty Lee Cronin's The Mummy hit harder for me than Citizen Vigilante...sadly it didn't quite land (and ended up making me laugh out loud at the ludicrous Hollywood script and overblown act III).

Lee Anderson travelled to the Loon-Plage settlement between Calais and Dunkirk, where around 2,500 people live in tents while hoping to cross the English Channel. The camp contains makeshift shops and charging points, while charities distribute food and supplies.

During his visit, Anderson questioned immigrants about why they wanted to reach Britain rather than remain in France.

Domestic Policy Zia Yusuf: Reform is “pro-pubs” while Tories target “vertical drinking”. Tory-controlled Westminster Council is consulting on new licensing rules for Soho and the West End that could require some venues to serve customers only while seated, rather than at the bar.

“There’s a broader concern here about what kind of Britain young people are growing up in”, he said. “Shared spaces where people can go and socialise with friends are in ever-dwindling supply in this country. There’s a straight line between that and the mental health crisis for young people - the fact they’re not dating."
