  1. There has been a fresh outpouring of outrage over the government's response to the petition which currently has over 2.75 million signatures. There's no acknowledgement of the strength of feeling over the matter - just confirmation that it is going to go ahead whether people like it or not. I am getting whiff of deliberate wind up coming from the halls of power. The Government has announced plans to introduce a digital ID system which is fit for the needs of modern Britain. We are committed to making people’s everyday lives easier and more secure, to putting more control in their hands (including over their own data), and to driving growth through harnessing digital technology. We also want to learn from countries which have digitised government services for the benefit of their citizens, in line with our manifesto commitment to modernise government. Currently, when UK citizens and residents use public services, start a new job, or, for example, buy alcohol, they often need to present an assortment of physical documents to prove who they are or things about themselves. This is both bureaucratic for the individual and creates space for abuse and fraud. This includes known issues with illegal working and modern slavery, while the fragmented approach and multiple systems across Government make it difficult for people to access vital services. Further, there are too many people who are excluded, like the 1 in 10 UK adults who don’t have a physical photo ID, so can struggle to prove who they are and access the products and services they are entitled to. To tackle these interlinked issues, we will introduce a new national digital ID. This is not a card but a new digital identity that will be available for free to all UK citizens and legal residents aged 16 and over (although we will consider through consultation if this should be age 13 and over). Over time, people will be able to use it to seamlessly access a range of public and private sector services, with the aim of making our everyday lives easier and more secure. It will not be compulsory to obtain a digital ID but it will be mandatory for some applications. For example, the new digital ID will build on GOV.UK One Login and the GOV.UK Wallet to drive the transformation of public services. Over time, this system will allow people to access government services – such as benefits or tax records – without needing to remember multiple logins or provide physical documents. It will significantly streamline interactions with the state, saving time and reducing frustrating paperwork, while also helping to create opportunities for more joined up government services. International examples show how beneficial this can be. For instance, Estonia’s system reportedly saves each citizen hours every month by streamlining unnecessary bureaucracy, and the move to becoming a digital society has saved taxpayer money. By the end of this Parliament, employers will have to check the new digital ID when conducting a ‘right to work’ check. This will help combat criminal gangs who promise access to the UK labour market in order to profit from dangerous and illegal channel crossings. It will create a fairer system between UK citizens and legal residents, crack down on forged documents, and streamline the process for employers, driving up compliance. Further, it will create business information showing where employers are conducting checks, so driving more targeted action against non-compliant employers. For clarity, it will not be a criminal offence to not hold a digital ID and police will not be able to demand to see a digital ID as part of a “stop and search.” Privacy and security will also be central to the digital ID programme. We will follow data protection law and best practice in creating a system which people can rightly put their trust in. People in the UK already know and trust digital credentials held in their phone wallets to use in their everyday lives, from paying for things to storing boarding passes. The new system will be built on similar technology and be your boarding pass to government. Digitally checkable digital credentials are more secure than physical documents which can be lost, copied or forged, and often mean sharing more information than just what is necessary for a given transaction. The new system will be designed in accordance with the highest security standards to protect against a comprehensive range of threats, including cyber-attacks. We will launch a public consultation in the coming weeks and work closely with employers, trade unions, civil society groups and other stakeholders, to co-design the scheme and ensure it is as secure and inclusive as possible. Following consultation, we will seek to bring forward legislation to underpin this system. Department for Science, Innovation and Technology

  3. Turns out police shot the victims! In an update, Greater Manchester Police says that two victims of yesterday's attack have been found to have gunshot wounds. The statement in full from the chief constable: "The Home Office Pathologist has advised that he has provisionally determined, that one of the deceased victims would appear to have suffered a wound consistent with a gunshot injury," a statement reads. "It is currently believed that the suspect, Jihad Al Shamie, was not in possession of a firearm and the only shots fired were from GMP's Authorised Firearms Officers as they worked to prevent the offender from entering the synagogue and causing further harm to our Jewish community. It follows therefore, that subject to further forensic examination, this injury may sadly have been sustained as a tragic and unforeseen consequence of the urgently required action taken by my officers to bring this vicious attack to an end. "We have also been advised by medical professionals that one of the three victims currently receiving treatment in hospital, has also suffered a gunshot wound, which is mercifully not life threatening. It is believed that both victims were close together behind the synagogue door, as worshippers acted bravely to prevent the attacker from gaining entry."

  7. I don’t know if there’s a full video going on so maybe somebody can clarify…. So he gets shot in the head as he tries to get up as they believe he may have a bomb… how did he get on the floor in the first place? I read that he was shot when trying to get into the door and then presumably fell back into the yard? So it must have been then when the police accidentally shot an innocent victim and injured another, but surely the police didn’t fire when there were people standing behind the attacker? And by the sound of the video above the officer only took the fatal shot because he was convinced that there was a bomb threat? So before that incident he wasn’t convinced? So who shot? And how many times? Was this the kind of magic bullet we have heard of before? Like I said, clarity from anyone would be nice. I can only find snippets.

  8. This is the video of the lead up to the shooting… I do find that bloke with the hat a bit odd. Stands there as close as he can despite warnings from the police and after the shooting strolls away like he’s down the beach. At this point he has already been shot, just not the fatal one…

  9. The YK government has always had a strict policy regarding terrorists. We DO NOT negotiate with terrorists. Hamas is a terrorist organisation. Hamas is holding hostages. Under UK and International protocol, the UK should NEVER recognize a Palestinian state while they hold hostages. We DO NOT negotiate with terrorists. So what happened when Starmer recognized Palestine? He did not call for the release of hostages as condition for recognizing the Palestinian state. So there was no negotiating. He just recognised Palestine, while they hold hostages, without any conditions. This is a surrender to terrorism. This is a complete reversal or rather sell out of UK long standing policy. He's legally trained, head of CPS, and here he is, without any conditions, accepting the terms set by terrorists. He has made comments that people are racist, far right thugs, he says we need to move towards decency. Yet his version of decency is to smear and lie, pay protesters to skew media stories and accept terrorists demands without argument and to reverse decades of policy. On his say so. If you don't agree, your racist. The hypocrisy of this government is truly astounding. On the upside, I think this will wake, and has woken, a lot of people. On Question Time an audience member asked about the government labeling protesters as Far Right. The Government spokesperson did their best to avoid answering with the usual media speak. We got News presenters openly calling this out, and calling for Starmer to go. Israel placing the blame for the attack directly at Starmer, our ever so moral PM who uses political dirty tricks and smear campaigns to silence opposition to his deranged ideology. He wants Angela Rayner back, he says she paid a hefty price. As the Ex head of the Crown Prosecution, having found a government official fiddling taxes, thinks that after standing down for 1 month, the offender should be given their job back. Can we ALL expect the same treatment? If I fiddle taxes, should there be the appearance of justice and then i can carry on in my business as if nothing happened? Thats how 'moral' this man is. If it's true that Tony Blair's son is involved with the company managing the Digitsl ID, and Tony Blair, ex Labour PM who pushed for Digital ID, had indeed got shares in that company and stands to profit, that is a conflict of interest. If Tony Blair is in anyway involved financially in a Labour government run scheme, not only is it a conflict of interest it also Politicizes the scheme. Blair can influence the company to be less helpful to opposition governments. If this is true, and Starmer pushes ahead, that again is an example of his morals, his inability to recognise simple decency, that giving billions of pounds and control to a Labour supporter and ex Politician who called for the exact same scheme. It's like the Starmer telling us he's given the go ahead for a new runway and motorway widening scheme that his newly acquired concrete company will be supplying the concrete. It smacks of corruption and nepotism. Again, that's how 'moral' this man is. Same with Tony Blair, if he had any morals, ge could recommend Digital ID if he believes it helps, but he would instruct any company he is directly involved with, from bidding or accepting the contract. But from what I can see of the Left, they scream very loudly for something they know very little facts about, and any disagreeing response are met with personal smears 'racist' 'bigot' 'terf' because they simply have no grasp of the facts and little capacity to reason. In an interview a Left wing lesbian was told if Hamas took over, she would be put to death. Her response was 'it doesn't matter, if that happened then I would consider it my turn to go, I support Hamas because it's the right thing to do' Ok. What about the other Lesbian's? Do they feel the same way? And the Gays, and the Christians and Hindus and atheists and all the other Americans subjected to Islamic rule having their life's turned upside down? Its the right thing to do and if all those people were executed alongside her, she would be telling them 'it's the right thing to do' As i say, some of these people have no capacity to reason or think out their ideology. Starmer is the same, as is Blair. They think they are do morally superior they can do what they like. Dangerous people.

No Surprise .. Grieving .. Dark time .. Attack against the values of our society. Lord Mann; People need to stop attacking others and people need to call others out (at work?) because it turns into violence as we saw yesterday. We need to work together and stop blaming each other. The level of violent extremist language in this county has grown, and that’s why the Jewish community is shocked but not surprised. Lord Mann is the Government’s advisor on Anti semitism and had a big meeting recently? .. Unrelenting Hatred,Root Causes, Reflection, and Social Media .. There are a lot of mentions of Prevent, which reminds me of Southport. Oh, Taylor Swift releases 12th studio album, that’s nice! That’s the only other ‘banner’ of news that gets a look in?

  12. While Israel is committing an act of piracy on the High Seas, abducting the passengers of a mercy flotilla to Gaza, to break the barbaric and medieval siege, an archetypal ‘terrorist’ called Jihad Al-Shami (meaning: ‘the Syrian’) attacked a synagogue in Manchester, with a knife and fake bomb belt. Police chief Sir Stephen Watson said the suspect was wearing "a vest which had the appearance of an explosive device" - but the force later confirmed it was not viable. A key question is whether he was a lone operator, self-radicalised, or affiliated with a wider organisation like ISIS or al-Qaeda. Leader of the Liberal Democrats Sir Ed Davey says that "this terrorist outrage is an attack on all of us" as he urges the government to do everything it can to protect the Jewish community. Eli Haffner, who is on the board of an orthodox synagogue in Manchester, "I think things are going to get worse," he says, before adding that he thinks "everyone should be speaking up now.” Raphi Bloom - who is also a board member of the Jewish Representative Council of Greater Manchester says, they "need the support of elected politicians" and “we need actions not words and it needs to happen now not later." Robert Jenrick said the attack in Manchester "wasn't just an antisemitic attack, it was an anti-British attack." (‘Je suis juif’) Green Party leader Zack Polanski says that his party “stands with the Jewish community and everyone affected in this tide of rising anti-Semitism.” Kemi Badenoch said it looks like "an outrageous attack on the Jewish community on their holiest day" - calling it "vile and disgusting." She expressed no such sentiments when Israel bombed Khan Younis of the first day of Eid al-Adha four months ago, killing and wounding scores of Palestinians in tents. Starmer claims, "a vile individual" attacked Jews “because they are Jews and attacked Britain because of our values.” Directly addressing the Jewish community, Starmer says, "on behalf of our country I express our solidarity, but also my sadness you should still live with these fears.” He adds that he will do everything in his power to "guarantee you the security you deserve" and assures them they will soon see the "Britain of decency, of compassion and of love" unless you are Palestinian. Sir Stephen Watson confirmed worshippers and security staff helped stop the attacker getting inside before he was shot dead by officers, by closing the door. He added: "They are true heroes." Rabbi Daniel Walker, who was leading the service, remained calm as he and others led the congregation to safety, (like Moses) although Sir Stephen said the worshippers were already in the synagogue at the time of the incident, therefore, the Hero Rabbi led them nowhere… The Chief Rabbi, Sir Ephraim Mirvis, also spoke of his disquiet at the pro-Palestine protests. He said so many people in the Jewish community “and well beyond it” wonder why marches in support of Palestine Action are allowed to take place. He claimed, “Some of them contain outright antisemitism, outright support for Hamas. Not every single person, however there is so much of this, which certainly is dangerous to many within our society.” “You cannot separate the words on our streets, the actions of people in this way, and what inevitably results, which was yesterday’s terrorist attack.” And there’s the rub, by this logic, opposing genocide in Gaza, is causing reprisals against Jews and according to Rabbi Ya’acov Perrin, “one million Arabs are not worth one Jewish fingernail.”

  17. No I don't follow Jesus, but it's the views put forward. Our Home Secretary says her religion is the most important thing in her life and drives everything she does. How can that be compatible with running the UK? Every time she faces a moral decision her religious views will appear in her mind first, then she has to make a conscious decision to put that reaction completely aside, remind herself of this society laws and views and historical decisions, and then make a decision that may run in opposition to her beliefs. Will she not be considered a bad Muslim by other Muslims if she does that? Will that not affect her decision? The Government has recognized Palestine before anyone ceasefire and while Hama still hold hostages. The UK's historical position is we don't negotiate with terrorists. As Home Secretary she should have voiced opposition to recognizing Palestinian state until a ceasefire or at least the release of hostages, but that would have been negotiating, which we don't do. So the proper stance, historical stance, which we've always been told is the moral stance, would be to not recognize the state until a formal resolution has been achieved. The proper Muslim stance would be to recognize Palestine and give Hamas an advantage as soon as possible. Which she did. That is not a Home Secretary acting in the UK's historical fashion. It is putting her religion in front of the British people's interests and the government's historical position in these situations. Starmer has done the same. The ex head of our legal system has, on his own volition, disregarded decades of British diplomacy and Law, and if you disagree, your racist. They are dangerous.

  18. Starmer and our home secretary say if you don't want these people in this country you are racist, far right and not decent. Kurdish illegal immigrants in taxpayer-funded hotel are jailed for terrifying machete attack on shop owner as judge tells them: 'It is not what we are about in this country' A gang of illegal immigrants who stormed a high street armed with machetes and brutally attacked a shop owner have been jailed. Hana Hassan, 22; Yosef Shaban, 24; Osama Qadir, 21, and Dawan Mantik, 28 - all Kurds from Iran and Iraq - arrived in Britain on small boats. The four were part of a larger mob of 12 who 'rallied the troops' after a dispute in a nightclub days earlier. They targeted fellow Kurd Kurwan Ali and his friends at his shop in Bournemouth, Dorset, in a 'ferocious and frighteningly violent attack', leaving one victim with life-threatening lung injuries. At the time of the attack Hassan was living in the taxpayer-funded Britannia Hotel, which was the focal point of local protests over the summer. The hotel has been plagued with violent migrant residents. Last month a court heard asylum seeker Shkar Jamal, 24, threatened a man with a snooker cue outside the troubled hotel - before then skipping his sentencing hearing to eat fish and chips. In another incident, a drunken Turkish migrant staying at the Britannia stabbed a man with a broken bottle. Despite the attack - and accusations he was in a terrorist group in his home country - Halil Dal, 30, will not be deported from the UK. Of the latest gang of migrants to be hauled into court, two of the men, Ahmed Omar and Rahel Omer, have already fled the country. As he jailed Hassan, Shaban, Qadir and Mantik for a combined 22 years, Judge Paul Dugdale said their behaviour was, 'not what we are about in this country'.

His anecdote about meeting retiree Joyce Todd became the centrepiece of his leader's speech at the Labour Party So it is little short of extraordinary that Mrs Todd's recollection of their 2015 meeting during canvassing in Oldham is so different to that of the Prime Minister's. Because she insists that the meeting was actually so fraught that it lasted less than 15 minutes before she demanded that he got out of her house because he accused her of being a racist. From the big questions around immigration down to trivial details such as whether or not she served him Rich Tea biscuits, 79-year-old Joyce is unequivocal. 'Keir Starmer is a liar,' she insisted in an exclusive interview. 'He still doesn't get it.' Mrs Todd's elevation to the national stage, which took her by surprise, came after Sir Keir told the story on Tuesday of how an encounter with her ten years ago had made him rethink the party's attitudes to the increasingly difficult question of immigration. 'Soon after I became an MP, I went to Oldham for a by-election up there,' the PM recalled. 'I was taken to a street to meet a woman, who I was told had strong views on immigration. 'I knocked on the door, she invited me in, we had a cup of tea, and a Rich Tea biscuit, and then as we sat there, she got her photo album out and showed me pictures.' It is at this point that Mrs Todd's recollection of what happened diverges from Sir Keir's. 'There were no Rich Tea biscuits,' she told us. And there was certainly no looking through a photo album. He was sat on one armchair, I was sat in another, and his staff were on the sofa, and we had a cup of tea – but there were no biscuits or photo albums.' But Mrs Todd's objections to Sir Keir's account are much graver when it moves on to more substantive matters. Sir Keir told his party: 'They [the pictures] were of the wedding of her Asian neighbour. She was proud that she was her friend… I started thinking 'What is going on here?'. 'Then we finally got to it, and she told me how some men from Eastern Europe had recently moved into her street. They sat on her wall, didn't put their rubbish out at the right time and spat on the ground. To her, that broke the little but important rules of her street. She didn't like it. Then I realised what was really happening was that she was an ordinary working-class woman, from Oldham, a Labour voter, and she felt that she had to prove to a Labour politician that she wasn't racist before she could even bring up the issues in her community.' But Mrs Todd recalls the meeting in the front room of her £130,000 terraced house unfolding differently. 'I don't know why he said I got my photo album out and showed him pictures of me at an Asian wedding because I didn't,' she insisted. And she told how the meeting culminated in her being insulted over her views on immigration. Mrs Todd, a retired trade journalist, explained how she came to meet Sir Keir, who had been elected an MP the previous year. She said: 'I was on a panel called The New Deal for Communities and the council thought it would be worth him meeting me as I have very forthright views. 'I'm certainly not a racist. But that's what he accused me of during our chat. 'I told him that we had a problem on the street with Eastern European men spitting and just making a nuisance of themselves… I told him about these issues, and he said: 'Mrs Todd, I think you could be racist'.' 'I told him no, I wasn't – and that I had Asian friends, and I had been to lots of Asian weddings and events, and we buy Christmas presents for Asian children. Link - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15157691/Starmer-Retiree-conference-speech-meeting-racist.html This is all he's got, accusations of racism towards anyone. Not only that, he uses the encounter by twisting it around and lying about what happened. I will accuse you of anything I choose and then lie to twist the truth to make it seem like I understand what people are telling me, I will then go on to do the opposite of what I have fantasised.

  20. AI quote; "TAU police" refers to the Tactical Aid Unit (TAU) of the Greater Manchester Police (GMP), a specialist unit focused on high-profile disruption and enforcement. TAU officers are trained in public order, organized crimetactics, managing large events, and executing warrants, and they often carry out visible patrols and specialist searches. I meant to quote @Dragon Slayer 5 messages up, regarding the “authority figures in yellow caps” which I found out yesterday are called the Community Security Trust.

  21. Thanks for all of the headlines @numnuts I just picked out three that stood out; The emphasis on ‘7’ minutes. The ‘I told you so’ Almost the ‘see you said we shouldn’t assume he was Islamist’ The I told you the sky was falling in? And the Telegraph with; 1) The Synagogue attack 2) William’s message of “change” and not being bound by history. 3 The tax message from Tesco 4) Trump’s gift of a sword to the King. You can hear 100 mph calls for peace and no hate, when mostly all of this was designed. Who was it that said the first victim of war is the truth? The family of the attacker “strongly condemn this heinous act” That word often reminds me of George Bush? I see “one of the victims died after being accidentally shot by the police” No sorry “shot by the authorised firearms officers” They must have had to think carefully how to word the statement that’s ‘breaking news’ right now Every news channel is 24/7 tisay

  22. Charlie Kirk had the Erika Honey Pot just after Candace got the George Farmer lover boy. Perhaps the power couple to be (Charlie and Candace) had to be separated by the cult to ensure each unknowingly fulfilled their role within the satanic death cult agenda. No way you go from zero to married with kids living the idyllic Cristian life raking in millions in 5 years, sadly that's a fairytale. My hunch is Charlie didn't know he was being used in the ritual sacrifice scattered with occult symbolism and Candace will not accept she may also be a "useful idiot" to further the narrative because its totally normal to marry into the UK upper aristocracy / monarchy. Multimillionaire Candace: "Here's my deep heartfelt tribute to Charlie K ... and now a word from ours sponsers: remember kids, buy 7 weeks coffee and organic beef jerky..." As Candace would say: It is in fact all Fake and Gay.

  28. Nail on the head there. They retain the power, but we're told it's ceremonial only. The Magna Carta is mostly repealed. The point of the Magna Carta was to remove Royalty and Church from the rein's of power. Yet the Royal Family and the Church still have huge influence on our politics. So it's a sham really. If the Royal Family are only ceremonial, why do they get the funding and influence in our and commonwealth, even world affairs. Same with the Church. Why should they still impose religious based laws on society that largely rejected their rule. Why do they sit on the UN. It's because the old rulers never left.
