And another one..

Farage and Trump are populists

Populism shares a number of features with fascism.

Just because you are ignorant of the facts doesn't mean its not happening
A fox looks similar to a dog, but calling it a dog is totally incorrect.
So you want the UK to be like the Taliban.
Twisting words, usual communist tactics.
 
Not every, but a lot, terrible isnt it?
" a lot" does not a measurement.

There are about 110,000 asylum seekers

So far this thread has found a half a dozen cases of violent assault....maybe 20 covering all reported cases.

20 divided by 11,000 is 0.002%

Do you think 0.002% is "a lot"

If you think my figures are wrong you are welcome to provide alternative ones

I agree that even 1 case, is too many, but this thread is about a narrative being creates by Bodd, . etc

Here are features of right wing populism that are shared with fascism:



Key Overlapping Features
  • Nationalism & Nativism: Both champion an exclusive, homogenous national identity, viewing outsiders/immigrants as threats to national culture and security, leading to strong anti-immigration stances.
  • Anti-Elitism: Both rally "the people" against corrupt, out-of-touch elites (media, establishment politicians, globalists).
  • Authoritarian Tendencies: Both favor strong leadership, order, and decisive action, often appealing to traditional values and societal discipline, though fascism seeks total control (totalitarianism).
  • "Us vs. Them" Mentality: They use Manichean rhetoric, dividing society into "pure" people (nation) and "corrupt" outsiders or elites.
  • Historical Nostalgia: Fascist movements often romanticize past national glories, a sentiment echoed by some right-wing populists who idealize a purer, pre-globalized era.
 
Serious question for you spline regarding all immigrants

There seems to be 2 different issues.

1 those already here
2 those arriving

What and how do you suggest stopping these issues ?
 
"He touched her waist and tried to kiss her"

Clearly a very bad thing to do, frightening for the girl and potential for it to have escalated.....but not really "horrendous".
She was 12 mate. Groping or grabbing a 12 year old. How can you play this down?

He finally slipped!
Quick, remove your post notchy!

Leftist liberal communists have their brain wired wrongly.

I myself have posted on here with posts intended to inject a bit of balance e.g. yes migrants commit crime, however so do Brits, and the migrant numbers almost pale into insignificance.

Nevertheless, I do feel government needs to sort the migrant issue out. And, for me, that would mean stopping the boats and ensuring our entrance criteria for migrants to remain is a lot more stringent.

Would actual crime numbers decrease by much if all the illegal migrants weren't here? Nope. However for me it's a point of principal. Secure borders and a much more efficient processing system.

The old adage is true. We have enough issues as it is without adding to them.

Certain immigrants commit far more crimes, per capita, than we do. Indians are generally well-behaved and the Chinese are virtually crime free. But Pakistanis, Afghanistanis, Albanians and Africans in Britain are a complete menace. It's not just the per-capita numbers, bad though they are, it is the types of crimes they commit, which are extremely violent and sexually violent. Bombings, car rammings, acid attacks, drug dealing, honour killings etc. Worst of all, much of this crime is done to provoke fear of islam, and that is the chief reason to oppose immigration.
