In 1980, I was among the anti-authoritarian leftists who cofounded the world's first Green Party in Germany + became their president for 4 yrs. We could never have imagined that there would be an antisemitic Green Party in the UK. I despise jew-haters. They are preparing pogroms.
BREAKING: The UK’s Green Party has officially voted to declare that "Zionism is racism" with 1022 voting yes and 813 voting no.
This means that every British person who doesn’t support the destruction of the Jewish nation is going to be considered racist.
This is not 1930.

Are you trolling us now?
I am a barrister. Every single barrister, judge, senior doctor, nurse, local business owner I know voted Leave.
Leave voters took the time and effort to consider their vote. To listen to the various groups (fishermen being the most obvious) it was clear that the EU was heading towards a Federal Project via the extension of remit of the ECJ. Set up as a Commercial Court to prevent anti-competition behaviour, the Maastricht and Lisbon Treaties widened the scope to Immigration, Matrimonial, Social care, Employment and Human Rights.
What’s the problem with that? You wail.
The problem is this: the laws being enforced by the ECJ are not from a democratically elected parliament, but from a body called the EU Commission.
This is an appointed body, not elected. Before you ask: No, unlike our parliament, the EU Parliament does not originate law. It rubber stamps them from the Commission.
Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on any of the EU treaties, I know them inside out.
Before I go.
Remain voters voted for the SQ. A lazy vote, just like the entire machine of the state: lazy.
Don’t you dare call me stupid for my vote.

I fell in love with this little structure in the Bistrița valley so naturally I commissioned a 16mm scale replica of it for the garden.

None of us needs to "play our part". The mass importation of rapey migrants from the world's worst countries is not some national undertaking that we have agreed to. It is an outrage that has been done to us despite our explicit opposition.
‘All parts of the country need to play their part.’

I’m done with allowing people to insult my ancestors like this.
No other group of people on Earth would allow their forebears to be insulted like this.
🇬🇧 My ancestors were the first people in history to fight to end slavery.
🇬🇧 They spread the common law across the world.
🇬🇧 They stopped Indians from burning widows alive so that they wouldn’t have to pay to feed them after their husbands had died.
🇬🇧 They stood alone against the Nazis.
🇬🇧 They invented and built the modern world with technology and medicine that started to defeat death and disease.
🇬🇧 They invented economics and democracy as we know it.
My ancestors were great people. Without them, the world would be an immeasurably darker, more wicked place.
Never again let entitled actors who known nothing about anything browbeat you into feeling shame for your ancestors.
Britain, and Western civilisation, are the greatest expressions of human flourishing in the history of the world.
Be proud of the ancestors who fought and toiled and sacrificed for that.
Don’t ever be ashamed of the greatness of our inheritance.
Live up to it.

What terrifies me is if Andy Burnham wrecks the country and leaves it in ruins. Imagine the backlash against peaceful Northerners.

Two years to the day.
In two to three years time, when Starmer and his government are no doubt deeply unpopular, I hope we in the media will ask ourselves: "Why were we so supine during the long 2024 election; why didn't we hold Labour properly to account while we could, and ask more probing questions, and explore their records, rather than give them such an easy ride?".

I'm completely militant on this. English speakers get to decide how words are spelled in English.
Our default at Silver Bulletin is AP style, so it's "Turkey," not "Türkiye". But I think AP is right in this case; it's a big ask to request that your official name in another language requires a special character.

Her name is Luana Zaratti, an Italian bus ticket inspector.
She was 26 when, during one of her shifts, she asked an illegal Egyptian immigrant for his ticket.
He had none. His answer was a violent headbutt straight to her face, so hard it shattered her nasal septum and caused severe head trauma.
Luana collapsed to the ground, blood pouring from her nose.
That single blow destroyed her life.
It left her with permanent brain damage and lifelong disability.
Years bedridden, almost vegetative.
But her willpower pulled her back to a shadow of the life she once had.
The attacker was sentenced to just 14 months in prison, but he never served a single day. He disappeared.
Luana, declared unfit to work, now survives on less than €1,000 a month.
