If you are looking to learn something about immigration, the growth of Islamism in the West and woke, have a listen to this man. Working-class background people like us can relate to, but no shouty capitals and no ranting. It's thoughtful take on what's going on and where things are going politically.

If you listened to the gentleman you'd know that he is not ranting. You are basing your entire opinion on one misspelled word in Caps. Sounds a bit pompous of you as well as closed minded but that's not my problem. However I will listen to your recommendation too, I'll keep my mind open.
 
Lastly I think you will find the Gentleman speaking is not the person who posted the tweet.
So if the poster does not know how to spell does the affect the content of the message of the speaker?

Or did you not know that anyone can add captions to video content on x?
Hey Wils you might want to reach out to @jomickane to see if he can educate you on how to add a caption to a tweet.

Yeah, I've got to admit it's a bit churlish to dismiss the jist of the speEch based on a slight misspelling.

Not doing himself any favours with the spelling there.

It’s often said of religion that the biggest factor behind people either converting to a faith or losing it isn’t a rational assessment of the arguments on each side, but rather the respect they have for those making the arguments.

I haven’t listened to the video, although I’m broadly sympathetic to concerns about mass immigration, including the implications of a Muslim majority being reached. But if you’re going to campaign on the issue and try to raise awareness, it makes sense not to leave yourself wide open to ad hominem attacks about your literacy, since the perceived respectability of those making the case tends to matter more in changing minds than the content of the argument itself.
If you’re a pedant…….There I finished the final sentence for you.
I don't think it's pedantry. A good chance I would agree with some if not all he had to say. But I didn't listen to it because putting 'SPEACH' in capitals tells me he isn't very bright and I won't have much to learn from him.
If he corrects the spelling of 'SPEACH' will you ignore him because he omitted the inverted comma from 'its'?

One more note for you to consider. If you listened you would hear by the man’s accent that he is probably not British. A good chance that English is probably not his native language. So give the man a little wiggle room, for all you know he could be multi lingual.

Looks like the parliamentary MPs have cottoned on they need to move to the right to keep their seats but the grass roots will only vote for a candidate further left that Kweer.

The budget will sink their approval rating into single figures.

We're moving towards a poll tax moment. Likely that the protests against the illegal gimmigrants will evolve into a movement to remove the government as it now becomes more and more disfunctional.

REFORM 2027.
The state will fucking love this. Political fuckeries to distract the media while they quietly get on with rolling out their country-fucking policies and processes.

Yep. A typical hypocritical migrant nimby shitcunt. Housing them right near those that clamour for and celebrate illegal migrants with open arms is precisely what should be happening. But no, they can't have the same safety fears as the rest of us serfs have to put up with on their doorstep, now can they....

Call me racist, Islamaphobic whatever the fuck you want, I don't care. But the Muslims are on a crusade the sooner people wake the fuck up the better.

Ban Sharia Law should be the first step, stop all the handouts, deport all the illegals and all of those that have committed a crime. Any rapists need to be deported along with their immediate family members. Any cսnt that shows up in a boat gets deported and permanently banned from ever being allowed in.
Ban the Burqa and ban Islam from being taught in schools. Monitor all the Imams and Mosques and Ban praying in the streets.

Any cսnt like Goose who throws their arms up in the air screaming racism throw them in Jail for being a mincy wanker.

That's what I'm hoping Farage does when he is elected.

Fingers crossed.


 
there's only one poster who seems to be constantly screaming and throwing his arms up in the air.
i cant even be bothered to point out all the inaccuracy in your post, it'll just result in a stream of unrelated FB articles.

where are you gonna deport Trump to by the way? or is it just rapists and not sexual abusers of women you wanna deport?

Whatever is happening, it's not happening "by chance" or "just one of those things". We have been driven/guided/herded here by the state (or whoever controls the state).

The government can say/do what it likes, but the state (a.k.a. the Civil Service) always has the final say and always wins. Brexit? They'll exact revenge in spades for Brexit, mark my words.

The Tories had it right with their Rwanda project, but far too many people with a vested interest in flooding the country with people with no knowledge of our history had a toolbox full of spanners to stick in the works of that one, and that industrial grade muppet Kier pandered to those pulling the strings by ditching the whole set up. That alone makes him unfit to lead/govern the country.

The solution is simply to remove from UK soil anyone who arrives here by a non-approved path/channel. Ask questions later; it's not as if we're proposing to execute them, just placing them in an off-shore holding area while the authorities  - if they have enough staff - go through the process of assessing their (non) applications. If it takes years, then it takes years.
