It is the people of Clacton who gave me a mandate. It is they who should judge my actions. Not the media and MPs in Westminster.

On my way, Clacton.

Calls not to ‘weaponise ’ or politicise Henry Novak’s death are just a desperate attempt to avoid facing up to how it happened. The response MUST be political as well as human, or there will be more Henrys….

They fought and died to liberate nations from people like you. You have no right to invoke their sacrifice, you chinless authoritarian scumbag.

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it. Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse. It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul.

Trump’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on the Trump administration’s plans for a new $250 bill featuring Donald Trump: “At present, no living person can be on U.S. currency…So right now, there’s proposed legislation in front of the house, in front of the senate, to change the first requirement so that a living person, Donald J. Trump, could be on the $250 bill. So it’s all in the hands of, it’s all up on Capitol Hill. So, at treasury, we prepare things in advance”

Harry Maguire, who is English and Northern Irish… … has been demographically replaced in the England World Cup team by an African named ‘Addji Keaninkin Marc-Israel Guéh’ born in Ivory Coast. What’s the point in a ‘national’ football team if someone who is NOT from that nation can join? Maguire should play for England. Guéh should play for Ivory Coast. Common sense. I’m sure Maguire isn’t even allowed to contest this decision because, as his shirt says in the photo below, ‘no room for racism’.
