Ha ha, indeed.

Who knew that nationalists in one country might cause problems for nationalists in another?

Into the local elections with "grooming gangs cover up". By her own logic, she (and Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak) was part of a cover up by not holding a national inquiry into grooming gangs.

There was an inquiry (Report published 2022), the Tories failed to implement it's recommendations.

It wasn't enough for her. Which is fair, as it wasn't just a bit of paper saying "The Muzzies felt up your daughters, feel free to lynch them".

No one really cares about enquiries or anything like remotely like that. They're all simply pandering to a sizeable minority who just want someone to confirm, as I've said before, that all Pakis are nonces and all nonces are Pakis. The fact the Badenoch is stooping to this level is a very sad reflection on the Conservative Party and UK politics as a whole.

I've listened to the Kneecap video. My impression from it is that they're silly edge lords, and the crowd (who presumably came for that sort of thing) don't exactly go wild when they hear it. It's hardly delivered in a threatening way, and I can't see any court is going to take it seriously as a threat.

Odd political priority for free speech advocate, Kemi Badenoch, though she doubtless thinks she's made some killer argument to release her pal "Lucy" who pleaded guilty to inciting racial hatred.

What pop band sticking to the man wouldn't want a trial?
'The band the Brits/Tories/WEF Starmer/the establishment/Zionists (take your pick to tailor the audience) tried to ban!'

Hire a hot barrister and put in a heartfelt performance and a 'defend your right to say it' jury will acquit them.

Perhaps Martin Brennan* can sneak their songs out on BBC1.

* Popular comedian Steve Coogan as an Irish farmer singing Republican rebel songs on a spoof chat show hosted by his most famous character Alan Partridge.

That could be nice, with a suitable "this prosecution was a massive waste of public money" comment for the judge.

Badenoch says more children, not immigration, will help with ageing population
Conservative leader’s remarks to BBC suggest she may develop policies that encourage women to have more children
She was complaining about maternity pay before.
“There are lots of reasons we’re not unique as a country for that. It is across the western world. The things that government can do is improve childcare, and above all housing, because there’s a massive link between how late people eventually settle down and the ability to have kids.”
She ran on making planning simpler in the leadership campaign, in fairness to her. But she's also attacked the mandatory housing targets. Given that Cameron and Bozo had to back down on planning, I can see the same thing happening to her, with Lib Dems and Greens on her back.

Farage also suggested this in an interview with wierdo pundit Jordan Peterson. Which is strange as we're apparently 'full up.' How will we get a GP appointment, find houses or drive our cars without traffic jams with all these extra people?

There's little evidence state incentives to raise the birthrate make much difference. Accepting depopulation appears to be taboo in politics but it's happening whether politicians like it or not.
I don't blame Gen Z for not wanting to bring children into the shitty ecological catastrophe they'll inherit.

I'm not racist but the country is full

But we also need more people because the country is not full

The people filling the country should not be foreign

I am not racist

A million young, fit and healthy immigrants = Strain on the NHS
A million new (presumably white) babies = No strain on the NHS.

You are, until the goalposts shift and it's about "culture".
