    All knife offences likely. Does appear there's been a drop in hospital admissions for knife and gun related crime for 2025 over 2024 so hopefully theyve started to make progress on the knife front as well this year but its certainly been a rising concern for a good while prior.

    we have made really good progress on firearms trafficking and fire arms offences nationally (inc London) but knife enabled crime is up to pre Covid levels where it was climbing. So: your chances of being involved in a weapon-enabled attack in London is higher than it ever has been. Your chances...

    On what basis does the current levels of legal immigration benefit the UK more than it costs? On what basis will Farage tax the poor and punish the lower and middle classes. i will tell you who is punishing the lower and middle classes, this current Labour government whose policies such as...

    People accept change when they see the change as being for the better. would people care about stuff like this church exhibition if there wasn't a wider context? Probably less. People are bringing up these things as they see them as microcosms of what's wrong. Graffiti tags are often marking...

    As i said, you can you argue the rights and wrongs of it all you like. The growing anger and resentment and the breaking down of mental boundaries (e.g. "if that makes me racist, so be it", "if you want to call me far right, go for it") is the result. And here's the rub, you can say to me...

    You can argue the whys and wherefores all you like. I think that there is a growing feeling whether right or wrong that somewhere along the line, the leaders and institutions of this country decided it was a good idea to advance the interests of minorities, over the interests of the majority...

    Call it faux outrage. I think one of the countries oldest institutions covering historical architecture in a celebration of vandalism, gang territory marking and "couldn't give a f*ck" attitude is just further evidence for many people of everything in this place being driven to the dogs. I...

    Doesn't gutterboy's intervention actually undermine your argument than non-religious wars are responsible for more deaths?

    While a lot of what they do is secret, the highlevel work they do is published. So on MI5's official website: - Islamist terrorism is the most significant terrorist threat to the UK by volume. Most of the volume is made up of individuals that have "self-radicalised" (i.e. they have not been...

    Bit of a caveat i'd add is that e.g. the technological capability to inflict mass casualties was off the scale in WW1 and 2 compared to e.g. the crusades etc.

    The biggest state threat, yes. More MI6's bag that (MI6 = foreign threat, MI5 = internal threat). It 100% isn't my opinion. It is a fact.

    As i've said there are people that like it. And people that don't. When everyone that doesnt like it moves out leaving those that like it there enjoying it, that doesnt mean it has worked. The guy who carried out the attack the other day came here at 16 and became a British citizen. But his...

    I said it was both ways. Large numbers of immigrants from the same background clump together. White flight exacerbates the polarisation.

    The issues with integration are both ways. But it illustrates the utter failure of the idea of multiculturalism. For every person that revels in it there's likely a handful that don't like/want or feel comfortable with it. That's human nature and you can't get around it really. Hence...

    I think its pretty stupid and unpleasant to use skin colour as a reference in respect of integration. People can't integrate their skin colour (ok ok, maybe Michael Jackson tried...). I think there is a valid point in there of ghettos of the same kind of culture where immigrant bubbles are...

    France can't try something a bit less neo-lib. Government's are waking up to the fact that when you borrow a sh*t tonne of money the people you are immediately answerable and beholden to are international investors NOT the electorate. Something Liz Truss painfully discovered. They can and...

    Its just a particularly magnified version of what's gone on in most large, advanced European economies: 1) borrowed huge amounts to refloat the economy in the wake of the financial crash in 2008. 2) euro membership meant they couldn't independently manage their own public debt downwards sparking...
