Memory is a trickster, but I am quite sure that when I was growing up, in the Eighties and Nineties, it was extremely unusual to see individual houses flying the Union Jack or the St George’s Cross. You might see a few more during big football tournaments, especially on cars and vans, but it just didn’t happen, by and large. This was a noticeable difference not only from the United States, but also from several other European nations.

Police ‘toned down’ statement of mother whose hotel worker daughter was murdered by an asylum seeker in case it led to race riots
Police ‘guided’ the family of a hotel worker in ‘toning down’ their public statements after she was murdered by an asylum seeker – in case their words led to anti-immigration rioting.
Rhiannon Whyte, 27, was stabbed 23 times with a screwdriver by Sudanese national Deng Majek while waiting at a train station in October 2024.
Majek, 28, who was sentenced to 29 years in prison in January, then spent the night dancing and drinking in the car park of Park Inn Hotel in Bescot, Walsall, where Rhiannon worked.
The police will be a major cause of Britain’s coming anti-beheader riots.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s resignation speech in full
Sir Keir Starmer has announced he is stepping down as prime minister and leader of the Labour Party, here is his resignation speech in full:
Thank you. Thank you. Walking up this street two years ago was the proudest moment of my life. A new Labour government. The first in 14 years. A page in our country’s history turned after years of disappointment and despair.
The chance to change the lives of millions of people for the better. That’s what I came into politics for. The journey to that point was not easy.

Keir Starmer Took Power in Triumph. Monday Might be His Last Day in Office.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer entered No. 10 in July 2024 with a Labour majority big enough to bury the Conservatives for a generation. Less than two years later, Britain is waiting to see whether he leaves office on Monday.
The odds are he will be gone replaced by a clone. I can’t see his resignation being any sort of improvement.
Starmer is ready to resign, say allies
Allies of Sir Keir Starmer believe he is preparing to step down after facing an evaporation of support over the weekend.
A senior government figure told The Telegraph the embattled Prime Minister was realising that the “game is up” and his thoughts were turning to how he could “shore up his legacy”.
They said there had been “quite a bit of movement” among Cabinet ministers since Andy Burnham’s Makerfield by-election victory, leading Sir Keir to reconsider his previous commitment to soldiering on.

Britain Is Giving Free Housing to Americans Who Claim Asylum
Americans, Swedes, and New Zealanders have been given free accommodation and taxpayer-funded benefits in Britain after claiming asylum, despite coming from some of the safest and wealthiest countries in the Western world.
New Home Office figures show that 245 migrants from the European Union, the United States, and other developed Western nations were living in state-funded accommodation as of March while their asylum claims were being processed.
Raped en masse, murdered and ignored: The full horror of the grooming gangs scandal
I CAN’T hold Rupert Lowe’s rushed release of his Rape Gang Inquiry Report against him, despite its politically convenient timing immediately ahead of the Makerfield by-election. I can however raise a cynical eyebrow at his vociferous disbelief that the BBC et al would roundly ignore it. Really, Rupes? You actually thought they’d fall for that?
The Restore Britain party leader’s independent inquiry was and is worthy and meaningful to the very many survivors, whistle-blowers, experts and distraught parents who contributed to it. Rotherham survivor and activist Sammy Woodhouse and her team gave its process a gravity of which I doubt Labour’s anointed national inquiry chair Baroness Longfield will venture within a country mile.
Nigel Farage is right about two-tier Britain
On Sunday, Nigel Farage published the first in what he promised would be a series of essays. It’s a new initiative from the Reform UK leader to speak – unfiltered by the media – directly to the British public.
There’s plenty to sink one’s teeth into: the essay is 7,000 words, with a bibliography numbering over 80 sources. Nor does it pull any punches: titled, ‘Britain is a two-tier state – against white people’, Farage goes through education, healthcare, housing, policing, even the military, showing in each case how Britain’s obsession with identity politics has disadvantaged white British citizens.
Did it die of shame?
The Major oak, one of Europe’s oldest, largest and most celebrated ancient trees, has died.
The huge tree, which has grown in Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire, England, for at least 1,000 years, failed to produce any leaves this year, after becoming stressed by a series of hot, dry summers.
The Brits Should Declare Their Independence, Too
British tyranny is so repulsive that the British people owe it to themselves to overthrow their government masters. It has been two-hundred-fifty years since America’s Declaration of Independence recognized the Crown system as a threat to Americans’ lives and liberties. English-speaking peoples still suffering under the British yoke should follow suit.

Asylum seeker, 24, who fooled authorities into thinking he was a child so he could live with a family in the UK is jailed for groping teenage girl – while on bail for another sex attack
A ‘predatory’ asylum seeker who groped a teenage girl on a train after being freed on bail for another sexual assault has been jailed for a year.
Meron Habtu came to the UK illegally from Eritrea in 2020 and ‘fooled’ the authorities into thinking he was a child so he could be placed with a host family, when he was actually 24.
A year later he sexually assaulted a drunk woman after ‘pestering’ females coming out of bars and nightclubs.
Islamism, the Muslim Brotherhood and the limits of Labour’s resolve
Labour is moving closer to Europe, at speed – except for one significant topic where it could really learn something from our Continental partners: the ever-thorny subject topic of how to do counter-extremism. There, the pace of convergence between Britain and the EU is glacial, at best.
The current Government’s approach towards political Islam is not just light years removed from that of the Trump Administration, which has designated select chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organisations; it is also far less robust than the postures adopted by many distinctly un-Trumpian EU member states.
Both the political classes and the permanent security systems of many Continental countries now treat political Islamists as adversaries to be called out and confronted, both ideologically and at law.
John Ivison: Let Starmer’s defence-spending implosion be a warning to Carney
Al Carns, the 24-year Royal Marine veteran turned British politician, posted a Facebook video over the weekend , two days after he resigned as the U.K.’s armed forces minister.
Carns followed his boss, defence minister John Healey, out of the door, with both claiming that the Labour government’s defence funding plan was inadequate.
By sinking the Royal Navy, Labour succeeds where Hitler and Napoleon failed
DR Mark Felton, a respected military historian, last week published a devastating video exposé of the Royal Navy’s doom loop at the hands of successive governments.
The ‘sell-off’ of the Navy and its suicidal crippling by ‘all must win prizes’ regardless of merit and ability. The DEI mandates appear nothing less than deliberate. It is frankly a frightening and disturbing watch, an unemotional and factual account of the non-stop assault on one of the country’s once greatest assets. One is left feeling that the generation of uni-party politicians who drove this are either treasonous — they knew what they were doing when they set out to destroy our ancient maritime defence — or irresponsible to the point of mental deficiency. Dr Felton asks whether the doom loop can be halted.
The unqualified £15-an-hour council ‘enforcement officers’ who can fine you up to £500 and get you arrested for failing to hand over your personal details
Councils across Britain are employing environmental enforcement officers with no qualifications to police their streets by handing out fines for littering and spitting.
Workers are being sent out on daily foot patrols in an attempt to catch people and issue Fixed Penalty Notices under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
They are given the power to issue on-the-spot fines of up to £500 to those spotted dropping small items such as food wrappers, chewing gum and cigarette ends.
