Don't be fooled by Shabana Mahmood's asylum policy announcement.

Restrictionists are celebrating. Green and Labour MPs are outraged.

But it's all a trick. This will actually lead to MORE fake refugees coming to Britain via new "safe and legal routes".

A thread🧵 In the article Mahmood wrote for the Guardian on Sunday, she says her reforms aim to "tackle the factors that draw people on to small boats to make perilous Channel crossings. They ensure that we enforce our rules more robustly, returning illegal migrants who have no right to be here."

Mahmood frames the men paying people smuggling gangs to cross the English Channel as victims of perverse incentives.

It's not that they shouldn't be coming to Britain: it's that their manner of doing so is dangerous and disorderly.

Former Home Secretary Sajid Javid announced the Independent Commission on Community and Cohesion last week, to investigate the “root causes” of last summer’s riots.

But its members will likely ignore immigration and multiculturalism as causal factors in civil unrest.

A thread🧵 The Independent Commission on Community & Cohesion's (ICCC) secretariat is the Together initiative: co-founded by the husband of murdered Labour MP Jo Cox, Brendan Cox.

His sister-in-law is Kim Leadbeater, the Labour MP who brought forward the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) private members bill.

Yesterday, 50-year-old Hamit Coskun was convicted of a religiously aggravated public order offence for burning a Quran outside the Turkish consulate in London.

Two men attacked him during his protest. This assault was used to justify his prosecution.

A thread on the verdict 🧵 Coskun is a Kurdish-Armenian asylum seeker, who came to Britain after enduring seven years of torture and imprisonment in Turkey.

His protest outside the Turkish consulate in Knightsbridge, London, on the 13th of February 2025, was as much a political statement against the Erdoğan government as it was against the verses justifying violence in the Quran.

Coskun shouted “f*** Islam” and “Islam is [a] religion of terrorism” while burning the book.

In his rucksack was a t-shirt with “Islam is a terrorist ideology. The Quran should be banned” printed on it.

“I’m telling you that you are focusing on Pakistani grooming gangs because, probably, you’re racist.”

Emily Maitlis claims there are ten times the number of White perpetrators of grooming gangs than Pakistani.

A thread on how she gets the stats wrong 🧵 As for the Times reporting that Mailtis quoted to accuse Lowe of racism:

It shows that Asian males are twice as likely to commit group-based child sexual exploitation, and grooming offences than their share of the general population.

These figures come from the Hydrant Programme, collected from all 43 police forces in England and Wales.

So while we would expect the majority population of a country to make up the majority of perpetrators of crime, per capita, Pakistani and Asian males are vastly overrepresented.

Keir Starmer announced the government's immigration white paper yesterday.

While it will reduce low-wage worker visas from certain routes, it also contains some less-publicised nasty surprises.

Here's a thread on the contents and consequences of Labour's latest policy changes🧵 For Skilled Worker visas:

Skilled workers must now provide proof of university-degree-level (RQF 6) qualifications.

The salary threshold will be raised to an unspecified amount — with the Immigration Salary List, exempting some from thresholds, to be abolished.

The number of occupations on the Temporary Shortage List will be reduced, and the ability to bring dependents restricted.

However, university degrees issued in the countries of origin are treated as equivalents to their British counterparts, despite being of inferior quality or often fraudulent. It will prove challenging to properly vet the quality of visa applicants and their credentials.

We also don’t know how much the new salary threshold will be raised to.

Exclusive: new FOI request data from UK Police shows Pakistani and Asian men overrepresented by up to two-to-four times among child sexual abuse offence suspects in Bradford and West Yorkshire.

A thread on the new data, reported for @CourageMedia___ 🧵
courage.media/2025/05/05/dam… Between 1 January 2009 - 31 December 2024, West Yorkshire Police recorded 7,100 88A Sexual Grooming and child sexual exploitation offences, under Section 15 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003, across its five districts: Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds, and Wakefield.

Independent Muslim MP, Ayoub Khan, has doubled-down after telling a room full of fellow Pakistanis that the grooming gangs scandal is a "false right-wing narrative ... done in order to sow division".

Khan blamed white men for these crimes instead.

A thread on why he is wrong🧵

https://twitter.com/Con_Tomlinson/status/1913275417915433334

Khan cites the 2020 Home Office review, "Group-based Child Sexual Exploitation Characteristics of Offending".

@CDP1882 called this "a whitewash" because it conflated different kinds of crimes against children to conclude the grooming gangs were not a problem.

What are Britain's teachers and school safeguarding staff being trained to teach white boys?

Materials shared with me show the state is waging a psychological war on white boys, believing they are the foot-soldiers of a fictitious "Far Right."

A thread 🧵 Exit Hate UK is an external provider of Prevent and anti-extremism training to schools.

Keir Starmer's Downing Street team has hired former Communist and Boris Johnson advisor Munira Mirza to set policy on multiculturalism.

Mirza is married to Tory fixer Dougie Smith; both of whom made Kemi Badenoch's career.

A thread 🧵 on the members of Britain's Deep State: Munira Mirza was born in 1978 to Pakistani immigrants.

She studied for a PhD at the University of Kent under prof. Frank Furedi, and joined his Revolutionary Communist Party.

She wrote for Living Marxism, the journal of the RCP — which later became Spiked magazine.

Britain has seen a 400 percent increase in the number of rapes recorded since 2013.

From 16,000 to over 69,000 by 2022.

This is a trend across Europe.

A thread on the statistics in @ThatAlexWoman's new documentary for @NewCultureForum 🧵 Between 2017 - 2021, Afghans and Pakistanis committed 16 times more rapes than German nationals.

African migrants committed 11 times more rapes.

Priti Patel is defending the Boriswave of 1.2 million third-world migrants to Britain each year, because "It's legal migration", and they're "the brightest and the best."

The average income of Indian and Nigerian migrants has fallen below Brits since 2021.
Reminder that Priti Patel was open about gerrymandering demographics in Britain to prioritise Indian Hindu nationalist interests while Home Secretary.

The Conservatives are very concerned about the ethno-politics of foreign nations, while imposing "British values" liberalism and multiculturalism on the UK.

A leaked Home Office report called grooming gangs a "grievance narrative”, and complaints about “two-tier policing” a “right-wing extremist” conspiracy theory.

It also aims to increase the number of non-crime hate incidents recorded.

There's a lot more to this story than just civil service incompetence.

A thread on how the Home Office has been ideologically captured, and enabled Islamic extremists.🧵 Details of the report were first publicised by @StevenEdginton in November 2024.

The paper claimed that grooming gangs are a “grievance narrative” invented by “right-wing extremists”.

It also said the statement “Western culture is under threat from mass migration” is an "extremist" view.

The report warned that "right-wing extremist narratives (particularly around immigration and policing) are in some cases 'leaking' into mainstream debates.”

It cited two-tier policing as an example.

After Edginton's reporting, a Labour source told GB News that the “paper was not approved by Home Office Ministers”.

Liz Truss has served Keir Starmer a cease and desist notice for defamation, over his repeated false allegation that she "crashed the economy."

Since the mini-budget, the Bank of England has admitted fault for at least two-thirds of the rise in GILT prices, causing the pound to plunge against the dollar.

Their mismanagement of Liability-Driven Investments (LDIs) caused the crisis to coincide with the budget announcement.

GDP growth did not fall as a result of the budget; and the Bank of England even made a £3.5 billion profit on their market intervention.

@trussliz was not to blame for the rise in interest rates or fall in GILT yields, by the Bank's own admission. So yet again, Keir Starmer is not telling the truth.

Important to note that 10-year GILT yields are now higher than they were during the LDI crisis, when the mini-budget was announced.

But unlike Truss' time in office, growth has fallen, to 01.%.

So why aren't the Bank of England, OBR, and press freaking out this time?

Channel 4's HOPE Not Hate documentary is live

After an embarrassing intro, where Nick Lowles and his team pretend to be heroes whose lives are at risk

Then this titlecard comes up, describing HOPE Not Hate as "a British anti-racist and anti-fascist organisation"

Channel 4 does not mention that HOPE Not Hate employ a former member of the National Front, now member of the Communist Party, who praised the r*pists and murderers of Stalin's Red Army So the first quarter of the documentary focused on what was "described as "one of the biggest events of the year" for the "Far Right"

There was then footage of a sparesly-attended conference in Estonia, and an undercover conversation with a podcast host who has little online presence, whose podcast I haven't heard of and isn't on YouTube

The worst statement was pulled from an episode of their podcast, denying the Holocaust. Dreadful stuff -- but not procured by an intrepid hidden-camera investigation

So, I finished @caitlinmoran's What About Men? today

As a member of its target demographic, I must say: while written with the best intentions, it fails in accurately assessing the reasons behind the hardships that men face

Moran's solutions are also more harmful than helpful🧵

For starters, Moran frames all her analysis within a set of feminist priors, which seem self-evident to her

For example, her second rule: 'The patriarchy is screwing men as hard as it's screwing women.' Nowhere in the book does she define Patriarchy. In fact, what the problems she attributes to being confected by a shadowy cabal of men, dominating civilisation since the dawn of time, appear to be better explained as @moveincircles's definition of Patriarchy as synonymous with 'Immutable sex differences that I don't like.'

When complaining that men only read sci-fi and watch action films, rather than stories simply about 'ordinary boys', Moran doesn't understand how men consume media. While women watch as if they are the protagonist, men watch with aspirations to be the protagonist. We want role models to emulate to instruct us how to be reliable and responsible, because men are the person of last resort upon whom others depend

Men can't afford to sit and wallow in affirmation and emotions when things need doing. It is a distraction from keeping the lights on, shelves stocked, and streets guarded. Weakness is a liability to the safety of those less capable in our tribe. Tales of heroism keep us accountable, and chasing a near impossible standard which there is nobility even in falling just short of. What Moran doesn't accept is that we like it that way. So stop trying to change that

She doesn't realise that her worldview rests on a set of contingent assumptions all the consequences of men's efforts

Regarding books written by ex-servicemen, Moran says, 'It is odd, then, that an increasingly old-fashioned business, so rapidly in decline, should be telling us how to live.' She fails to realise how a surveillance state with significant upkeep costs, and an American economic and foreign policy on the wane, has produced peaceful and prosperous material which are a historical aberration. When those go away, as they look to do with global conflict on the horizon, it is Moran's arguments that are redundant – not the military

There is also no such thing as a "free" product, such as the sanitary items Moran praises Feminists for securing from the UN. Almost everything was invented, manufactured, distributed, and funded via the extraction of taxes from the incomes of… MEN. This is not a claim of superiority: merely urging perspective, to make gratitude a bulwark against entitlement
What is most frustrating about this lack of perspective is that nowhere in this book did Moran speak from the place where she may actually have authority: to women, as a matriarch, encouraging them to treat men with more consideration

Instead, in the section on false rape allegations, Moran implies that they happen with such infrequency, that your friend is more likely a rapist than a victim; and that you shouldn't be sleeping with women crazy enough to make fale allegations anyway

(She also designates a significant section of said chapter to explaining why women are, rightfully, afraid of men assaulting them -- as if every PSHE lesson and cultural product hasn't drilled this into men already. She seems to be labouring under the noble but futile hope that rapists can be taught not to rape. They cannot. They can only be scared or reprimanded by harsh and swift punishment.)

Set aside the fact that she doesn't apply the latter standard to women raped by their partners (because it is unreasonable to do so). When there are no consequences for making life-ruining allegations, without proof, then a growing cohort of evil women will do so for personal gain. It happened to a friend of mine. I believed the claims; until the woman in question later apologised to him, admitting she made it up to get revenge for rejecting her

When men tell you with increasing frequency that this is happening, try listening to them

Hi there @flora__bowen

Odd that you didn't feel it necessary to reach me for comment when writing a story about me, and only featured the claims of my interlocutor?

This is not good journalistic practice
telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/09/2… It's also incorrect:

I asked if there is an appearance fee over the phone, as some networks do, some don't. I was told £200

After the show, I received an email from a different producer, saying this was an error, and that it was actually £75

So, I presume, by what this article quotes Moya as saying, she may have asked after the interview for a fee, and Sky News gave the details out of the amount one producer had promised me, and then retroactively tried to reduce my fee to hers to avoid accusations of a "wage gap"

So, in not reaching me for comment, this whole story is pointless and inaccurate

I expect a retraction, please, or I will be taking action
