Royal Air Farce

As seasoned military historians will know, many of Britain’s Royal Air Force (RAF) pilots during World War 2 were Polish. Today, however, those plucky air aces from a chilly land in eastern Europe would be unlikely to get their wings not because of any aerial incapacity, but because they are the wrong color.

The RAF have taken a bit of a break from hiring white men, and the public sector in general is sounding like an eerie echo of the sign often seen in rental properties in Britain’s inner cities in the 1950s and 6os: “No coloureds, no dogs, no Irish”. Only now it’s “No whites”, and it’s the RAF.

 

 

 

 

 

Uncivil Service

You can sense when there is an election in the offing because Conservative politicians who are nothing of the sort start pretending they are. Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak have made it to the penalty shoot-out (with Truss favorite to win), the victor of which becomes party leader and therefore, by default, Prime Minister. There will be much muttering about the new PM being unelected, but only by those who don’t fully grasp the British constitution. The party with the most seats in Parliament is the one whose leader has to stroll round to Buckingham Palace and ask Her Majesty if they can form a government.

It would be a marvelous end to her reign if this time Queen Elizabeth II replied, “no you bloody well can’t. Now bugger orf”. We can all dream. But if the ruling UK party changes leaders between elections, they are quite entitled to do so. British readers will remember Gordon Brown taking the helm from Tony Blair. Or perhaps you would rather not.

But a seasonal gesture from “Tories” to try to shell-game the British electorate into believing they possess even one strand of conservative DNA is par for the course. Truss, for example, has promised to trigger the infamous Article 16 within days of her taking over captaincy of the Titanic, sorry, the UK, and to reform the notoriously Left-leaning civil service, the minions who put into effect whatever fever-dreams are dreamt up in the Cabinet meetings at Downing Street.

So the Civil Service has pre-empted the likelihood of Truss clearing out the woke clutter by going on a hiring spree to safeguard the diversity and inclusion jobs the likely next PM is targeting.

 

 

Black mischief

Marvel comics. Lost in Space. Cocktails. Tom & Jerry. The electric guitar. Sense a connecting thread? All of these are American imports into the UK which lit up my childhood. Okay, the cocktails came marginally later, but America used to glow in the dark for us when we were kids. Sadly, not all imports are as welcome.

Oxford Street is the Fifth Avenue of London, it is where people come to shop. Or, increasingly, shoplift. Footage – can you still call it that? – of a pack of kids openly swarming shops (which is what the British call stores) in Oxford Street went what the young people call viral.

 

 

Go south, young man

To Scotland, and an invasion of England from the highlands. These are not tribes of fierce and blue-painted warriors, however, but homeless people.

 

Ticking the boxes

The National Museum of Wales is, like all good national cultural archives, part art gallery.

Union Jackal UK Immigration

August 2022

By Mark Gullick

Georgia on their mind

With illegal immigration into Britain increasing exponentially via the beaches of Kent, it is assumed that migrants crossing Europe see England, and London in particular, as their final destination. The new arrivals are not generally keen on the idea of living in Wales. But emigrants from one eastern European country increasingly want to go one step further, all the way to Ireland.

Georgia is one of the satellite nations sent into orbit around Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union, and it seems that an increasing number of Georgians suddenly want to start a new life in the Emerald Isle. Arrivals in Ireland from Georgia sought ‘protection’ there in June at almost 1,000% of the rate they did in January, and those six-month figures were twice those for the whole of last year. These new Irishmen and women (although they will be almost all men) are undoubtedly inspired by the Ukrainian mini-exodus to Éire, to give the country its Gaelic name, and now outnumber asylum-seekers from that war-torn country. The problem is that Georgia is not a war-torn country.

Designated as a ‘safe country of origin’ under Ireland’s 2015 International Protection Act, Georgia is being offered EU candidacy pending reforms, one of which is reining in emigration. Given that EU membership is a jackpot for poorer eastern European countries, as one of the EU’s roles is as a wealth transfer scheme from western to eastern Europe, why do so many Georgians want to flee to the other end of the continent? This was the question asked by Charlie Flanagan of Ireland’s Fine Gael political party, and it transpires that one of the required reforms is Georgia preventing its people from visiting Europe as tourists under the present provision for visa-free travel enjoyed by Georgians, then skipping off to seek asylum in the same way the old Soviet defectors did. So Georgians are leaving now because their government, as part of its reform package, will soon stop them being able to do so. But why Ireland? Is it the Guinness, the Colleen girls, the rugby union, a love of James Joyce?

Ireland is in an odd position. It borders Northern Ireland, notoriously a part of the United Kingdom (see the 1970s, the IRA, the Troubles, etc.), but is not a part of Great Britain. It is, however, a part of Europe, in fact a founding member. Welcome to Schengen.

The Schengen agreement guarantees unlimited visa-free movement within the EU and was sold to Europeans as border-hopping liberty. In fact, if it had been specifically tailored to allow migrants to roam about until they find a welfare system that best suits their financial requirements, it is difficult to see what would have been done differently.

One clue that Ireland is starting to become concerned about immigration is given by Ireland’s Minister for Justice, Helen McEntee, who proposes ‘a new scheme’ which aims to cut the application process from its current two to three years to two months. If such a staggering reduction is possible now, as well the necessary increase in productivity (or extra hiring) on the part of immigration staff, how did it reach its current state in the first place? Perhaps because Irish voters didn’t notice immigration then, and now they have Georgia on their mind.

Death in Boston

The small, once-sleepy town of Boston in Lincolnshire has in recent years had its small population swelled by the gift of immigration. In the decade to 2011, between national censuses, the population of this local authority born outside the UK increased by 467%. They are almost all from eastern Europe. The Daily Mail makes a connection,using data based on the fact that the murder rate in Boston is now three times that of London and Manchester, that is coy in a very English way;

“Boston is the place where it was most likely someone would kill you, try to kill you or plot to kill you”.

This prevailing atmosphere of carnage and assassination had a profound effect on the community, and “led a number of residents and politicians to complain about the changing make-up of the town”. I’ll put the kettle on, shall I?

But these new Bostonians have not just pulled the name of the town out of a hat. Eastern European arrivistes have seen the brochure (see below) and moved in effectively at the invitation of Her Majesty’s Government. What a pity they have chosen to arrive at the same time as-or actually just before-Boston saw its murder rate rise so dramatically.

The most recent victim of diversity was Lilia Valutyte, who was seven years old, and it is difficult to read this short and neat piece of journalistic prose concerning her death;

“Lilia was reportedly playing with a hula-hoop with her younger sister before she was found with a stab wound”.

A hula-hoop. Quite difficult to master for a little girl, I would think. Butchering that same little girl I imagine to be somewhat easier. The suspect, now in custody, is Deividas Skebas, 22, who Britain’s Leftist organ The Guardian describe as ‘a Boston man’. Well, technically, as he lives there. He is actually Lithuanian, as is the dead little girl.

The brochure looks nice

In 18th-century Britain, the upper classes would pay a shilling to enter an insane asylum - ‘Bedlam’, as such institutions were known – and gawp at the antics and expressions of the inmates inside. This practice has long since disappeared, but fortunately for us has been replaced by TikTok, and these days the freak-show doesn’t even cost a shilling.

We already know that this app is a Chinese data-harvesting scam – probably producing the only decent global harvest there will be this year – and a Bedlamite and grotesque carnival of the animals, but who on earth knew it was the new world-wide travel agency? Thomas Cook is long gone, but who needs him when you have people-smugglers with a licked finger held up to see which way the market wind blows?

Albanian people-smuggling gangs are using the platform to advertise the fact that they can get you from Albania to the UK for around £5,500 (around $6,500). Obeying market principles, prices are getting gradually lower as competitors vie for customers. One TikTok user advertised a summer sale with a knockdown price of just £3,500.

The Albanians, at least the criminal ones, will not be coming to Blighty to see the sights, however – although there are iconic images of London on some posts – but because British people are richer than Albanians and, in the main, utterly unused to the ruthless trickery of the Mafiosi of this thoroughly unpleasant country. Why be an Albanian gangster in Tirana, where no one has any money, when you can be one in Kensington, where everyone has lots of it?

Even the staff of The Albanian News read their syndicated press releases, and are alive to the fact that a permanent vacation from their charmless and backward country is being advertised on this popular Chinese app. And they say travel agency is dead.

Getting rid of the Dane

“Once you have paid him the Danegeld

You will never get rid of the Dane”.

So England’s great poet of Empire, Rudyard Kipling, famously wrote. He was referring to the tendency of huge and violent Danish Vikings of the Middle Ages to hop into their long-boats and cruise over to England for a bit of pillaging. The English ended up paying them to keep away, and the Mafia would successfully replicate this business model centuries later in America. But, as Kipling notes, if you keep paying to keep them away, they won’t stay away. They will keep coming back so you can pay them to stay away again. Fortunately, the Danes found other pursuits such as inventing Lego and 1970s hard-core pornography, and attacks ceased. Unfortunately, the UK has replaced the Danes with the French, so we still have someone to pay the Danegeld to.

British Home Secretary Priti Patel is in a precarious situation (and not just because she is the UK’s Kamala Harris). Precarious for her career, that is, which is what most concerns the average British politician. She will almost certainly be replaced as Home Secretary when the new Prime Minister takes over from the deposed Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson (his real name). So, does she go out with something spectacular in lieu of a job application for the new boss, or just keep those undocumented, untested, untraceable migrants coming (40% of whom, incidentally, arriving on Kent’s pleasant beaches are our old friends the Albanians)?

Her position is not made easier by the media, both mainstream and dissident, who have got themselves snagged on that modern curse of information, the viral myth. So it is believed and often repeated by people who should know better that any migrant crossing Europe is legally obliged to apply for asylum in the first safe country he enters. Sadly, like the ‘fact’ that one of the musicians who auditioned for The Monkees was Charles Manson, it’s not true, and I refer you to the Schengen Agreement in the first segment above.

Economic migrants want to be in European countries with the best welfare systems, and Sweden is getting near full, as well as increasingly violent. The human smugglers know this, and channel their resources accordingly. It’s called business and whether you are a good or a bad person doesn’t matter, the principles of supply and demand are exactly the same. ‘Human smuggling’, incidentally, is a pathetic misnomer. Smuggling involves hiding something, whereas migration is hidden in plain sight.

But for anyone who thought that the Rwanda plan, involving flying immigrants from the UK to Rwanda to have their claims processed, was a desperate career low for Patel, she may have bettered herself. The French, who could easily solve the problem of people smuggling from their side of the English Channel but have no wish to, were paid £54 million to do just that in xxxx. Immigration figures subsequently climbed. So, Patel has come up with a cunning plan; give more money to the French.

The French responded immediately by releasing photographs of one of the motorized rubber dinghies used by the smugglers to get their customers across the 21-mile wide English Channel being slashed by French police, and the outboard motor being destroyed. But if history has taught us anything, it is that the French are good at theater.

And so the Danegeld keeps coming. And, with their usual arrogant contempt, the British political class and their media courtiers will call it ‘government money’ when it is in fact tax money under the stewardship of government. It might be easier, and clearer for the taxpayer, if the Department of the Inland Revenue just gave their staff Viking helmets and have done with it.
