History: Their Own Signs Told the Story - 'Not Far-Right, Just Right!
When Immigration Concerns Became 'Racism': The Governments Political Weapon!
Since when does opposing mass immigration make you 'far-right'? Yet, a year ago, Keir Starmer took things in that direction! After the Southport attacks, protesters who expressed themselves were vilified — many were arrested under special powers for just standing there doing nothing. Of course, we have to appreciate that element of racist, vandals and thugs who rightfully were arrested, but tarring everyone with the same brush is unfair.
Immigration, Morality Drama and Racism
In December 2024, with Reform UK overtaking Labour in the polls, Starmer quickly jumped on the 'stop the boats' bandwagon, promising to tackle immigration! We should be honest with ourselves, anyone can take an example of racism and play the moralist with it. Real racism is vile and it's not as common as the many things people prescribe it to be - so why weaken it with silly accusations? Other expressions of racism come across as a political game, or social weapon. We saw the 'racism gameplay' used on the majority of leave voters during brexit. Before all this, Harry and Meghan’s Netflix show accused the entire UK itself of being a systemically racist country. Keep it for the actual racists.
The Missing Evidence: Where's the Proof Behind These 'Far-Right' Claims?
Holding anti-immigration views or voting to leave the EU is not adequate proof of anyone's standpoint on what race might be, or if it is problematic or not. Neither is it a hint of intellectual inferiority. Comparable to remain voters, leave voters were publicly labelled across the media as having fewer qualifications, living in rented accommodation, or council housing, and being less travelled. Yet, years later, they were blessed covid keyworkers!
When it comes to racism Labour MPs insisted police should shelve valid investigation into Islamic grooming gangs stretching across many council estates. This was to avoid being seen as ‘racist’. Anti-racism politics continued, alongside pressures for a nationwide investigation into those very gangs which identified failings you should look into.
Absolutely, racism is comparable to a weapon. In reality, it's not black and white, inter-ethnic communities face their own long standing problems too; some racial tension garners less media attention. Ever read about racism in Leicester and Birmingham? The conflicts between Black and South Asian communities shows another perspective on racism. The news broadcasted these clashes and claimed most of which were of a cultural and religious nature - racism language not utilised in the BBC (BBC News, 2022).
Going Back in Time
One example of historical British racial conflicts go back to the Britons and the first English Anglo-Germanic tribes, as far back as the fifth century. Different language, culture, religion and genetics, left an impression they were separate races, given how they derived from different ancestral gods. South Asian hostility toward Black people is another expression of humans beings being unpleasant to one another (Gillespie, 2021).
Admittedly, we can agree that the vocal fervour and conviction of some protesters may have came across intimidating; passionate or political chanting can appear aggressive when it is not necessarily the case, like when holding an English flag because football hoologans and ethno-nationalists have done so in the passed.
Be that as it is, name calling, however; as in branding regular people unfairly as the aforementioned. It's similar to the non-crime hate incidents for which people can face prison!
Too much tarring was going on and most people are still holding a tainted brush. Many protesters in Westminster generally distanced themselves from any far-right ideology and criminal activity, because it was repulsive to them, as you'll see in this honest video below.
Liars Pretending to Fight a Moral Cause?
Virtue signaling always adds salt to the wound. It refocuses the optics framing self-promotion: for example, seeing our Prime Minister playing the saint in the very place where those poor girls were murdered was immoral. Why? The BBC and other mainstream news headlined 'Not Terror Related'. Starmer denied all knowledge of the guilty party, despite Nigel Farage openly asking, 'What are they not telling us?'
This Prime Minister knew at the time that those murders were inspired by Islamic radical ideology! That's what he was not telling us! Even when mainstream BBC news portrayed the 'suspect' as being 'Welsh' because he was born in 'Cardiff'.
Regardless, officers recovered an Al-Qaeda training PDF, terror related internet searches on his computer and poison. How is that not radical or terror related? The evil wretch was known to authorities and no-one stopped him. The people had valid reason to protest because there was a lot to be said, but instead many ended up arrested!
The Cover-Up Continues: What Other Facts Were Hidden?
In the Westminster video above, we see protesters, mostly mothers and grandads and so on, indiscriminately herded into police vans! The news, with political help, smeared the lot of them: Westminster certainly was not facing an EDL or NF march!
An inspection of the police response to the public disorder in July and August 2024 concludes:
No evidence existed to prove any deliberate plot by any group; the actual trouble makers in other protests were done by local people fuelled with anger. They found outside individuals, influencers who kindled public disaffection. They added fuel to the fire with inaccurate information.
Before 2024 most of the detained rioters and protestors had no previous arrests for disorder-related offences. Police arrested nearly 150 children, some as young as 11. Motives for rioting and protesting were diverse, including fears of poverty, biased policing, as well as concerns surrounding increased immigration. Issues the country voted against repeatedly only for it to be ignored.
Previously, before these protests, Keir Starmer publicly bent the knee in support of Black Lives Matter, whose vandalism swept the globe.
The Dangers of the Left
Ultimately, we know that pandering to any particular foreign demographic for votes in an election is discrimination against all the others, questionable at least. It is questionable that no national inquiry was undertaken on the grooming gangs! For years newspapers, and now, online whistle blowers, claim postal voting fraud was directly linked to the Labour party and the Islamic community. Watch the video below!
Dishonesty and Using Race as a Weapon
In a televised broadcast, Keir Starmer admitted to knowing the details of the Southport case at the time - his excuse: it was ‘not right’ to release them to the public at the time. The police released those details just three months later, in October. This was long before the trial. So, why did Keir Starmer, a successful legal expert respond the way he did?
My Conclusion
Starmer has avoided answering questions about the non-far-right, those peaceful participants in the protests who were made out to be the EDL. Why? People suffered or died in jail for tweeting on social media. Pensioners lost winter allowances, the government demonised those who are anti-immigration and then banned useful workers from legally entering, such as carers for example.
Starmer said women could have a penis until the law changed his mind. His premiership continued to free up prison spaces by releasing prisoners early. Of course, he replaced them with hundreds of innocent people found guilty of 'thought crime,' 'facebook posts they didn't like' or 'holding a placard'. Strangely though, if any lefty publicly ordered throats cut or openly yelled 'deff to the IDF' on stage at a televised concert, well...that was not so bad. Maybe the plan was to make prisons a tad more Bingo and Werthers Original?
