@grok What are the most obvious positives and negatives to the mass immigration of non Europeans to the UK over the last 20 years, think i. Terms of infrastructure, hospitals, doctors, schools and housing. Back up with statistics if possible.

Are you trolling us now?
I am a barrister. Every single barrister, judge, senior doctor, nurse, local business owner I know voted Leave.
Leave voters took the time and effort to consider their vote. To listen to the various groups (fishermen being the most obvious) it was clear that the EU was heading towards a Federal Project via the extension of remit of the ECJ. Set up as a Commercial Court to prevent anti-competition behaviour, the Maastricht and Lisbon Treaties widened the scope to Immigration, Matrimonial, Social care, Employment and Human Rights.
What’s the problem with that? You wail.
The problem is this: the laws being enforced by the ECJ are not from a democratically elected parliament, but from a body called the EU Commission.
This is an appointed body, not elected. Before you ask: No, unlike our parliament, the EU Parliament does not originate law. It rubber stamps them from the Commission.
Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on any of the EU treaties, I know them inside out.
Before I go.
Remain voters voted for the SQ. A lazy vote, just like the entire machine of the state: lazy.
Don’t you dare call me stupid for my vote.

Macron being very clear where he stands on UK rejoining the EU
"One cannot pick and choose among the [the EU] freedoms, nor decide to take only what suits one’s interests while rejecting the rest"
So AS I KEEP SAYING - Rejoin means taking the Euro, Schengen and Migration Pact.

PLEASE my friends ask yourself a simple question. Why would a government spend public money in court to stop the public seeing a migrant data spreadsheet?
A think tank asked the Ministry of Justice for the figures on offences committed by foreign nationals between 2018 and 2024. The MoJ said no. The Information Commissioner looked at it and ordered the department to hand it over.
That should have been the end of it. Ruling made, data released, argument had in the open like grown-ups.
Instead, Burnham’s government is appealing. Lawyers, court time, your money, all deployed to keep a file shut that the regulator has already said belongs to you.
And remember what this file is. Not a research project. Not some vast new collection exercise costing millions. It sits on the Police National Computer already. Denmark publishes this. Germany publishes this. Sweden publishes this. Somehow only in Britain is it a state secret.
Victims have now written asking for it, like my friend Siobhan Whyte, whose daughter was murdered by a hotel migrant. People who were attacked, whose families were destroyed, are being told the numbers are too dangerous for them to see. Think about what a government has to believe about you to take that position.

Spot on!! 🎯😎😆
I can’t wait for the comments!!
Nicklas Nilsson explains the difference between right-wing and left-wing people in spot-on text on Facebook:
"If a right-wing person is gay, then he is, and he doesn't care what others think.
If a left-winger is gay, then he demands legal changes, protests against everything and everyone, and turns it into a political struggle.
If a right-winger is vegan, then he simply doesn't eat meat.
If a left-winger is vegan, then he wants to ban meat, halt food production, and protest outside farms and chicken farms.
If a right-winger doesn't like guns, then he just doesn't buy any.
If a left-winger doesn't like guns, then he tries to ban them, prevent everyone else from owning one, and hates those who do.
If a right-winger is worried about the climate, then he flies less, drives an electric car if it suits him, and sorts his waste.
If a left-winger is worried about the climate, then he wants to ban fossil fuel cars, air travel, and meat for everyone else, protest outside factories, and demand that the state forces the change.
If a right-winger wants to give his children a good education, then he moves to an area with good schools, or chooses a private school, or gets involved himself.
If a left-winger wants to give his children a good education, then he demands more tax money from everyone, equal results for all, a ban on charter schools, and protests against every inequality.
If a right-winger complains about his job or workplace.. he doesn't. He changes jobs or starts his own business.
If a left-winger complains about his job – then it's the boss, the company, or the colleagues who are at fault. He demands collective agreements, strikes, changes for the whole community, and protests against the company so that it suits him.
If a right-winger is dissatisfied with his housing or rent, then he moves, renovates, or buys something else.
If a left-winger is dissatisfied with his housing or rent, then he demands rent freezes, more subsidies, regulations for everyone, and protests against landlords and politicians.
If a right-winger fails with a business or an investment that goes wrong, then he gets up, dusts himself off, and tries again tomorrow.
If a left-winger runs out of money on the 24th, then he blames the rich for having too much and needing to contribute more, blames the lottery win that didn't come home last week, and mutters that he has such damn bad luck.
If a right-winger sees this – then he sends it to a few friends for a good laugh.
If a left-winger sees this – then he tries to argue against it, get it removed, and delete me from Facebook."

🚨📄 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 - FSG president Mike Gordon releases a statement:
“Michael has made an extraordinary contribution to Liverpool Football Club and Fenway Sports Group throughout his time with our organization.”
“When Michael returned in 2024, he did so at a pivotal moment for Liverpool, embracing a broader leadership role across our football interests in the process. Throughout both periods he has consistently demonstrated exceptional judgement, integrity and an unwavering commitment to building a strong football organisation for the long term.”
“His return to the organization saw Liverpool successfully navigate a significant period of transition before securing the club’s historic English league title, an achievement to which Michael made an important contribution. While we are naturally disappointed to see him leave, we will always be grateful for everything he has given.”
“On behalf of John Henry, Tom Werner and everyone at Fenway Sports Group, I would like to thank Michael for his outstanding service, friendship and leadership, and wish him and his family every success and happiness in the future.”

Top British attorney Natasha Hausdorff dismantled the Palestinian narrative with cold historical facts.
There was never a sovereign Arab state called “Palestine.” The British Mandate of Palestine was simply British administration over the historic Land of Israel after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.
Jews lived continuously in the land for centuries — including under Ottoman rule, when they formed the majority in Jerusalem. Before 1909, Tel Aviv was empty desert legally purchased by Jews, who built it from nothing. No Arabs were displaced.
After the British handed the mandate to the UN, the Arab world rejected the partition plan and launched a war to destroy the Jewish state. Arab armies and local militias tried to “push the Jews into the sea.” At the same time, Arab countries ethnically cleansed their ancient Jewish communities, forcing nearly a million Jews to flee to Israel.
During the war, Arab leaders ordered local Arabs to evacuate combat zones so their armies could annihilate the Jews. Many of those who left later became permanent “refugees” under Egyptian and Jordanian control.
Israel has never committed genocide — and never will. By defending itself, it prevents another holocaust.
Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Islamic regime of Iran are the real obstacles to peace in the Middle East.
Retweet if you support Israel’s right to exist and defend itself.
Literally everything bad that has happened in recent history has it's roots in the left.
world wars(national socialist party - Nazis , left wing socialist party)
Communism - Stalin
and China(pol pot)
The left are facilitators of evil.
Communis

If you're going to hold something up in front of the world you better know what it means. The regime on that placard would never let you march for it. You'd be arrested. Imprisoned. Killed. The freedom you used yesterday to walk through London is the very freedom that regime destroys.
They kill women for removing their hijab. They rape women in prison. They shot a 16 year old boy in the head for protesting. Since December 2025 between 7,000 and 36,500 of their own people killed for asking for the same freedom those marchers used yesterday.
They shut the internet down to hide the scale of it and you carried their name through the streets of a free country. This has happened before. Iran 1979. The left helped bring Khomeini to power. Trade unions. Students. Intellectuals. The moment he won he turned on every single one of them. Thousands executed. The people who helped him get there were the first ones destroyed.
Same left. Same ideology. Same enemies. Different country. Different flag.
These people aren't dangerous despite being wrong. They're dangerous BECAUSE of it.
The people handing out those placards know exactly what they're doing. The people holding them think they're heroes and that's the scariest thing about the world.

Yesterday the chairman of Nvidia stated that we have achieved "artificial general intelligence" AIG.
This is monumental and one of the most important days in history, the day AI reached equivalence with man. Next step superior AI. Yesterday will be in the history books!
Have you noticed that the crazy left wing nearly all spew hatred and are complete narcissists. Always framing their opposition as evil, nazis, uneducated, stupid or racists.
I remember at school, that's what bullies did when they had no arguments.
Simple really.
