Just about every single thing this headteacher states so confidently - her hunches - in this thread about public attitudes is wrong , if she only did the homework first to check what actual public attitudes are. as @jydenham of Centre for English Identity has shown
This (2012, YouGov) is the gap in perceptions of British, Scottish, Welsh, English identity - and the importance of ethnicity of being white. There was a gap in 2012, but it is much narrower than @Miss_Snuffy thinks it is & the reasons she gives don't fit the data either
@Miss_Snuffy In 2012, this was important to be white data by England. Scotland and Wales. The English data shifts when this is re-run in 2019 and 2020-21. Fewer people think what @Miss_Snuffy and her teachers (apparently on pure hunches and zero data) claim that most people think
Elon Musk supports terrorism. He objects to 7.5 years for man who created Southport Wake-Up Group, proposed mosque as the target, championed attacking the police their, **took part in the real world violence, carrying a knife**, and promoted the list of 40 targets for violence
McIntyre was fortunate that his call to kill the Home Secretary was not pursued in the charges, which include being the key organiser of the riots online and a participant in the violence against the police in person
You would obviously go to prison in America for organising and participating in riots on this scale (even if the President Elect might later pardon you if the violence had a political motive of overturning an election and trying to intimidate or hang the vice president)
It weird that @GoodwinMJ could believe the false claim there was no media coverage of grooming before 2011. He wrote a book on the BNP. The extensive media 2004 coverage of Annie Hall's Channel 4 film about grooming being rescheduled could be used to support some of his points
I hope mainstream supporters of farmers/countryside alliance will challenge effort by overt racists of the Homeland Party to associate themselves with the protest. Extreme racism of Mr Laws (who seeks to deport *all* migrants *and* Uk-born minorities) obvs not shared by farmers!
I trust many farmers would on a values basis to reject his persistent calls for Sunak, Badenoch & myself to be deported (on grounds that minorities can never be British).
Opposition from farmers to his call to remove all migrants would also reflect a practical self-interest!
I doubt the organisers can do a great deal in advance about toxic racist fringe elements choosing to turn up.
Once such an overtly racist group does seek to use it for publicity & interviews, I think it is reasonable to ssk the decent mainstream organisers to disassociate
Policy Exchange's A Portrait of Modern Britain (2024) @rakibehsan & @IGMansfield offer a constructive centre-right response to Britain's growing ethnic diversity in a society where patterns of progress to equal opps & the discrimination which persists are more complex
Yes to recommendation 1. New govt should have a national integration strategy (identifying its own role/responsibility for key foundations). Should respect difference in a liberal society, promote equal opportunities & work on what brings us together
Obviously Laws is entirely racist. He does not accept that Badenoch or Sunak are British.
Laws got 0.4% of the vote in Dover in July.
The tweet itself isn't racist seems exceptionally naive when it is a matter of record that Laws primary goal/priority is the deportation of all ethnic minority Britons, including Badenoch, Sunak and myself
