The fact that the Southport stabber is not a new arrival, but a second-generation immigrant, is worse It means assimilation efforts completely failed Born in Cardiff, brought up in Merseyside, and still derranged enough to stab a nursery full of children on a whim Despite over a decade of interactions with state institutions, he never developed a love for those "British values" we keep hearing about Just like the Parnell Square stabbings last year, where perpetrator Riad Bouchaker was an Algerian who lived in Ireland for twenty years, and stabbed three children and a school worker Today's Southport attack demonstrates the uncomfortable truth: that platitudes about diversity, or abundant opportunities to earn money in a gig economy, do not make good neighbours out of new arrivals or their children We have had too many examples now to pretend this is not the case. Too many children have died to continue to fear causing offence Every last foreign criminal must be sent home Every foreign benefits claimant must have their cash flow stopped No more must be let in, until we work out if we have admitted more monsters like this into our midst
