3 February - It has to stop

Did you do the arithmetic two days ago? 140 child asylum seekers in Bexley and £4,000 a week minimum for those in care homes. £4,000 a week! My children’s mother is in a good quality nursing home and the charge is a little under £6,000 a month. Why so much more money for a child? Is there a separate full time guard for each one?

Probably the cost is met by central Government but whatever the case the bill is picked up by taxpayers.

It has to stop but most of the time we are too frightened to talk about it; cowed by extreme left wingers throwing the R word around like confetti, who are supported by woke senior police officers and encouraged by politicians of all persuasions who pursue policies with which most people do not agree. Everyone I speak to off the record thinks this country has reached a tipping point and importing alien cultures is changing Britain irretrievably.

It is more than 25 years since the British born wife of a Muslim told me that he was plotting in secret with a multitude of like-minded individuals to take over the country and impose their laws and their traditions on the indigenous population.

They are well on the way to having achieved their ambition and the names of various city Mayors and nationalist leaders are no longer those I encountered at school rather more than 60 years ago. It tends to confirm ‘Mission Accomplished’.

Bonkers highest profile Twitter follower (to say X follower might give rise to confusion) summed up my own feelings pretty well last Thursday. (Extract below.)

Whenever we suffer another outrageous imported crime one can guess the likely nationality involved from the nature of the crime and the colour of their skin from whether the police decide to mention it or not. They may ask us to look out for a man but do not dare mention the most obvious distinguishing feature. In doing so they lose our respect and the Met. Commissioner confirms that we are right to do so by supporting an Officer who believes that is illegal to sing hymns except when in church, and poking out a tongue is grown up behaviour.

Thanks to a judge in Newcastle who is not too bothered about sexual assaults and a priest who is willing to state that a Muslim is a Christian, twelve people went to hospital and six were maimed near Clapham Common by someone legally in the country due to idiots in the Home Office. Surely we have reached the point when drastic action must be taken? I have mentioned my alternative to the Rwanda scheme to several friends and no one disagrees that it would be just as effective and cost very little but in Not So Great Britain to discuss it publicly might be illegal.

Allison Pearson says that Britain is no longer the relatively peaceful country we used to know. A country where as a child I had access to an air gun and a crossbow and none of the gang ever dreamed of shooting at anything but a paper ring adorned with red white and blue concentric circles.

In the 1950s we had access to dangerous chemicals too, you could buy them in the local chemist’s shop. Scroll down for the proof.

As a precocious twelve year old I used A.N. Beck & Sons in Stoke Newington High Street to deliver test tubes and bunsen burners and any chemical that I could not buy over the counter in Farnborough. Sodium Hydroxide, the weapon of choice of Abdul Shakoor Ezedi in Clapham could be purchased for 4½ pence (less than 2 pence in ‘new’ money).

No one used it maliciously and the only accident I recall was when my bottle of sulphuric acid leaked and burned a hole though a shelf in my mother’s cabinet.

If you discount stink bombs at Sunday School Christmas parties nothing untoward ever happened. I think it was something to do with what are now widely discouraged and disparagingly referred to as ‘British Values’.

The price of a stamp adjusted for both inflation and decimal currency would be 12·5 pence in 2024. Exactly one tenth of the price of a Royal Mail stamp today.
