How on earth do we have kurdish crime gangs in the UK we have a border foreign gangs only get in because we let them? These places are clear as day in my own town they are predictable as are the people operating them.

In some areas, half of all mini-marts and vape shops, and up to a third of American candy stores are thought to have links to organized crime, the survey results also suggest.

This isn't skilled migration or a benefit to the UK economy this is criminals that need deportation.

It’s bizarre that we have become a country that is openly allowing criminal gangs to launder money through shops, up and down the land, so blantantly that we all know it’s happening.

All migrants from problematic countries should be deported to their home countries on national safety grounds.

There are some around these parts that will say they are enterprising individuals making the best of it. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

If Trading Standards and the Police don`t fancy dealing with it send in the military.

This has been going on for years and fingers are pointed at the key politicians in charge over this time but the people I want to hear from are the highly paid Chief Constables and Police Commissioners. Why are they never questioned?

I’m in complete agreement with you QR.
I also agree with PCs being scrapped. It’s nice to see that at long last hereditary peers are being scrapped.

We don`t have police force anymore, its a police service that is more like social care than doing the basics of the job.

The best thing this government has done is announce the scrapping of the "Home for Failed Politicians" aka Police & Crime Commissioners.

I think it's a shame the hereditary peers are gone. A group who aren't formally affiliated with any party, and for most of whom the primary motivation is to provide a public service.

They should of course have been reformed such that they would be subject to minimum attendance standards and not entitled to claim anything but the most basic expenses. But instead we've thrown the baby out with the bathwater. Seems strange when the country is going to s**t to abolish things from the time when it wasn't s**t.

The original nepo babies.
 
No the coos would rather do you for speeding than tackle serious crime.
On the basis that Countries have different cultures than ours like marrying girls of Fourteen or have more than one Wife, all these asylum seekers should be sent back to there countries.
We , the British people are soft , the authorities soft , no room in Prisons build fuking new ones , it’s our grandchildren that will suffer !
 
Has anyone really got the bottle to sort out the mess the political class has dropped us in ,there are a lot of people that should be locked up and worryingly the worst is yet to come ,oh but wait a minute youre a racist comes the cry ,the country was better in the 80s the quicker we get back to it the better ,Starmer is a disaster and the sooner Labour go the better

Their prime motive is unknown, and a considerable number of the remaining hereditary peers would have lost their peerage had the proposed 10% minimum attendance rule come in from a previous attempt to control them.
As for non-party affiliation...
  • Conservative: 42 peers
  • Crossbench: 28 peers
  • Liberal Democrat: 3 peers
  • Labour: 2 peers
  • Other/Non-affiliated: 17 peers

It would have been good to have given them an opportunity to comply with the minimum attendance rule and then lose their peerage if they can't meet it, instead of just throw the baby out with the bathwater.

The accounts I've heard from the hereditary peers who have been doing media over the past few days seems to be a mix of those who are comfortable with the decision, and those who are disappointed because they felt they were adding a valuable layer of parliamentary protection and a unique viewpoint.

For me, I'm glad that they are gone, I just can't get on board with somebody being given a position of influence purely because they were born into it. The question of what replaces them though, is something I can't really answer. The last thing we need is another elected house.

I completely agree in principle, but your concern is well founded - more elected officials to take us closer to a US-style system?? That's literally the only alternative, a weaker house which is more susceptible to political wish-washing and interference.

We've got one of the greatest democracies on earth. Some of it doesn't make sense to the ordinary person, because it's built on something older and more historic than we can even get our heads around. 700 years of people who actually have a stake in this country, whose families have lived here through thick and thin, helping to provide checks and balances (not even making any executive decisions) to ensure our laws work.

Not everything has to be fair. Not everyone has to have the opportunity to be a lord or a king. The system lasted 700 years without scandal or weakness.

Yeah, but he did manage to get Trump to remove the Tariffs on whisky, so he has a practical use too.

On that, I'm sure the founding fathers will be spinning in their graves at the reality of a US President imposing tariffs with no democratic process followed . . . and then removing them on Scotch after the King of England asked him to.

Small boat migrant guilty of knife attack at Israeli embassy

Abdullah Albadri was arrested in April last year as he tried to climb over the railings of the embassy in London.

Another stella contributor to society was he a doctor or engineer? Given his knife skills i must hope a surgeon.

He had only been here 16 days, quite impressive in that respect, like going to Spain for a two week holiday but fitting in a terrorist attack as well.

It is absolutely freightening that there are British Nationals that continue to defend the invasion that we are facilitating in this country.

He is an immigrant, who has been here 16 days. In 16 DAYS he has caused terror and could have committed mass murder. It's outrageous.
 
41,472 in 2025........................

6,000 so far this year..............

William the Conquerors army............ 12,000.

Julius Ceasars army over 2 invasions............ 27,000.

Wonder what it takes to become an invasion?

For about 600 of those 700 years, you couldn't vote if you were poor or a woman. Do you want to go back to that?

I think most of us would suggest that it's not tearing down the system to amend some of the rules as time goes by, if they don't fit in with modern ideals and morality. And the concept of our second house being populated by people on the basis of their ancestry not their ability is one that was surely due an update.........
