Last week the Home Secretary publicly described Daniel Thomas as “a far-right and outright racist” and said he would face “the full force of the law” if his group committed offences near asylum sites.
Ministers can criticise organisations they regard as extremist. Using that language about a named private citizen, from one of the most powerful offices in the country, is a different step. Whether you agree with her characterisation or not, the decision to single him out in those terms is worth examining on its own.

Maybe the child is not his, it was brought along as a prop and discarded when it became inconvenient.
A child left behind, injured in the water, while his father gets onto the boat and leaves French lifeguards to save him.
What kind of father does that?
Crashing waves. Chaos. A child struggling in the water, while his own father boards the boat rather than staying to protect him.
I believe scenes like this expose the failures surrounding these crossings, from the charities involved, to the actions of the French authorities, to the decisions being made by the British Government.
People are becoming increasingly angry about what they are seeing.
I genuinely fear that if confidence in the authorities continues to collapse, some people will eventually try to take matters into their own hands.
To be absolutely clear, I am not condoning, encouraging or supporting violence in any way, shape or form.

The criminal damage charge does not need a named owner.
s.10(2) Criminal Damage Act 1971: property belongs to anyone who has custody or control of it. A French official already on the dinghy is enough.

With Andy Burnham’s new National Centre for Information Defence, Labour now has a government body whose job includes deciding which views of Britain “bear no resemblance to reality.”
The Prime Minister says the country faces an “industrial-scale assault” of disinformation, that Russia is amplifying “far-right narratives,” and that talk of national decline, unrest after terror attacks, or negative aspects of modern life is a corrosive fiction that must be disrupted. The new centre will work with security services, police and social media companies to “detect, attribute and disrupt” such material, all in the name of “community cohesion” and defending democracy.
Orwell called it the Ministry of Truth. Burnham calls it Information Defence. Same job description, nicer branding.
When a government starts treating public pessimism about living standards, crime, cohesion or migration as a hostile information operation rather than a political argument, 1984 stops looking like a warning and starts looking like a how-to guide.
Is Labour now treating the book as its manifesto?

Britain needs cash because government is so wasteful. There are many areas that could be cut without affecting services or the needs to punish pensioners.
Now the Guardian are at it.
It's a very slick, cross-party organised campaign designed to denigrate pensioners and create a divide between the young and the old.
The pensioners are being blamed for past government mistakes.
Don't fall for this poisonous nonsense.

Did he even manage to puncture the dinghy as it does appears to be deflating.
No life was put at risk. The media and the left are acting like @RealDannyTommo sunk the Dinghy with 100 migrants on it! It was an abandoned vessel at sea about to be reused by the French to smuggle more migrants.. LEGAL and MORAL action!

Andy Burnham who wants a Ministry of Truth is fighting against releasing truthful information.
🚨 BREAKING: The Labour government is fighting an Information Commissioner order to publish detailed conviction figures by nationality, court papers obtained by GB News show.
• The Ministry of Justice is appealing a ruling that followed a Freedom of Information request by Centre for Migration Control director Robert Bates for 2018 to 2024 convictions broken down by nationality and offence type, including violence, sexual offences, drugs, weapons, theft and robbery.
• Bates records the MoJ as arguing that “the interests and fundamental rights and freedoms of the affected data subjects outweigh the legitimate interests in disclosure.”
