This government hates you and is trying to provoke you to do something rash. Don't give them the satisfaction. Don't be rash. Remember what you do reflects on the rest, and could decide the future of the country.

Talking to the aircon guy today - about retro computing. Only that didn't last long before he turned the conversation to the state of the country. "I think I might have to leave." he said, "not for me, I'm old enough, and have done OK for myself, but my kids, you' know." He continued "We all know what is wrong with the country (immigration), and if we don't the right result in 2029, I think it will be civil war." He was aware of Restore Britain for sure, and would very much like to vote for them, "the real deal", but wasn't sure that would be a winning strategy "for my kids." I have many such conversations. Always unprompted by me, and almost always with white working class Gen-Xers or older millennials. So, um guys in @reformparty_uk and @RestoreBritain, get your shit together, because is sounds a lot to me like if there isn't a significant change at the next election the country is going to be faced with the double whammy of mass exodus of the skilled working class (not to be confused with the imported working class pretending to be skilled) and out and out civil strife the likes of which we have never experienced outside of Nortern Ireland. I don't care what the personal issues are. I don't care who makes up the next government. We need mass deportations of those that shouldn't be here, and you need to start listening to the white working classes. 2029 is it. After that all bets are off and we move from asking nicely to something far less savoury - economic and civil disintergration.

So to clarify, a EDI hire, teaches EDI on EDI courses, to EDI students, and the EDI students now want freebies because the EDI teacher and the EDI course were 'poor'. I don't really have any sympathy if I'm honest.
I’ve written to both the Education Secretary and the Vice Chancellor of Cambridge University on behalf of those students who have been failed by the university and Arday’s poor teaching. There should be a full investigation into what went wrong and who bears responsibility for these failures. Those students who have been failed because of inadequate teaching/supervision should file complaints and deserve compensation or a fee refund. Potentially these students are entitled to damages for breach of contract or negligence. Justice must be done for failed students, DEI hiring must stop and those responsible for this scandal must be held to account. And no, this isn’t a ‘racist pile-on’. This is about doing the right thing. Write up here 👇 telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/08…

There should be no welfare services available for any foreign nationals. The British welfare system should be solely and only be available to support the British. And for the pennants that means English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, and BNOs living in this country.
No amount of headline-chasing, or following Reform to the extremes, can conceal the damage the Tories did to housing in this country. People without ILR are already ineligible for social housing, so the Tories are targeting refugees and long-term UK residents who have contributed to this country but are not British citizens, including NHS staff. It would leave more families at risk of homelessness, while driving up the use of temporary accommodation at taxpayers’ expense. This unserious, unworkable proposal, copied from Reform, would do nothing to tackle the housing crisis the Tories themselves created. telegraph.co.uk/politics/202…
Community note
People without ILR are not all ineligible for social housing. Refugees and those with humanitarian protection typically have limited leave but are eligible under current rules. england.shelter.org.uk/housing_advice… housing-rights.info/03_2_Refugees.… itv.com/news/2026-08-0…

Had a conversation with a yoof today about composting "Yeah", I said "just put your veg waste in the composter in the garden." "Composter?" "It's like a wheelie bin sized plastic Darlek." Silence Then "What's a Darlek?" The country is doomed.

They'll be in France in a week, and suckling at the UK taxpayers teat in a month.
Migrants in Ceuta now being transported to mainland Spain. Some accounts on this platform claimed people were overreacting and that ALL of the migrants who crossed the border into Ceuta returned that very same day. Feeling a little silly now?

1) smells like BS 2) they are still coming though aren't they, so whatever you are doing isn't working.

In West Heath @Tesco Express today, couple of the usual suspects in the shop round by the refrigerators, working their ways though some Tikka chicken, being completely ignored by the staff. Guessing they won't be paying for that. Guess the other patrons of the shop will. Make me Home Secretary @ukhomeoffice, and it would end immediately. I will make Singapore look like a baby seal dry cleaned in Fairy Liquid.

I cannot express how much this pissed me off today. They really do not give a shit. Put me in a right sour mood it has. Come the revolution the enablers of this behaviour are going to get both barrels.

Three portents of doom in one day.
DON’T FORGET TO LOOK UP; on August 12, 2026, there will be a total solar eclipse, along with a peak of the Perseid meteor shower and also a rare alignment of six planets will all occur on the same day.

No @andyburnham, you still don't get it. The problem isn't that there are not enough 'safe and legal routes' the problem you have is that WE, that is the electorate, do not want ANY of them. Not one. They are taking the piss. We all know this, we see it every day. It has to stop the the ones already here have to go. Millions of them.

Sovereign Spanish territory has been invaded. The response needs to be swift and brutal. Anything less is an invitation to do more of the same.
I feel like we’re totally ignoring that Cueta is not in Europe - it’s on Morocco’s northern coast - and that 80% of the migrants have already returned to Morocco voluntarily But hey, why let facts and context get in the way of hysteria?

Over to you @Nigel_Farage. Nothing here seems unreasonable. Do some polling, see what Reform voters think. See what Conservative and Blue Labour voters think too.
The Greater Manchester result showed what Restore Britain can deliver. The next step is how we maximise the chances of delivering the change Britain needs - it means putting personal differences aside. That is why today I am making a public offer to Nigel Farage and Reform UK.

And that is the problem. The question that should be asked at every meeting is "How do we get rid of these invaders and stop more coming." @UKLabour
This is the quote that will define the Labour government

"We cannot allow anyone to come to our Union without abiding by our rules." WOT? WHY ARE YOU LETTING THEM IN AT ALL?
The images coming from Ceuta are unacceptable. We cannot allow anyone to come to our Union without abiding by our rules. Dangerous crossings must stop immediately. Smuggling networks must be dismantled. And returns must be swift, as our rules allow. I tasked two Commissioners to support to control the situation. @magnusbrunner is already working closely with Spain and is ready to travel to critical points. He will work on additional operational support to Spain, including through Frontex. @dubravkasuica is in contact with her Moroccan counterpart. I am confident that our close partnership with Morocco will help deliver concrete results.
