One becomes accustomed to seeing graphic reports of violence in the USA, particularly in Democrat - run cities so because I generally skim past any headlines in my news fed from US Christian Conservative or 'woke' left news sites. Thus when news of the murder of Charlie Kirk started to come in it did not attract my attention. American news is loaded with stories of violent death, especially in the past week with the fatal stabbing of a Ukranian refugee in Charlotte, which was studiously ignored by mainstream media until the noise on alt_news and the blogosphere forced the propaganda industry to report on case almost three weeks after the event.
To be honest the name Charlie Kirk only stirred in me a vague feeling that the assassain's victim had been someone significant. I now know of course that Charlie was a hugely significant figure in American politics, despite never having been elected to a Federal or State Senate or Congress. He was one of the most successful internet influencers on the right of the political spectrum, and widely respected even by many opponents, mainly for his civil style of debating and willingness to listen to all opposing opinions.
We can only hope that Kirk's death will serve as an alarm to those who so far have drifted along assuming that the people who govern us and the people who woulk like to govern us will some how blunder through whatever crises face the world while the lives of ordinary citizens go smoothly on, unaffected by war, sectarianism, terrorism, political extremism and the civil disorder that is fermenting just below the suface of society in the USA, UK, France, Germany and most of the liberal democracies.
Nick Freitas, a Christian commentator on Charlie Kirk's death, has ably discerned the profound difference between 'conservatives' and the left, between the 'progressives and the broad right consensus. It is much deeper than our common political differences and exchanges - it is a radical difference in world views.
The American website Counterpunch (www.counterpunch.org) has several articles, none of which are flattering but which expand on tht point. Here is an extract from one:
"If we are going to be truthful in this moment, the hate that Kirk put out came back on him. The killing of Charlie Kirk fits within this arena of speech that is racist and hate-filled, but is designed to pose as rational and logical political speech. In his rhetoric and so-called debate style this 31-year-old evangelical firebrand of the right has stated that Black pilots were incompetent, Gays should be stoned, ironically he was opposed to gun control, abortion, LGBTQ rights, criticized the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Martin Luther King Jr., promoted Christian nationalism, advanced COVID-19 misinformation, made false claims of electoral fraud in 2020, and is a proponent of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory."
There is no doubt his murder was wrong, but from the above and orther items read to inform myself, it is easy to see how he could have pissed off a lot of people. But nothing I have read either written by him or of him by non partisan authors suggests he was racist or hate filled while the words published in counterpunch certainly suggest that publication's contributors are filled with hatred of anybody who does not share their opinions. And society has been so deeply divided and pushed so far to the extremes that respectful dialogue between goups which hold different opinions no longer seems possible.
In April this year, Charlie Kirk said — correctly as it turns out — on social media: "Assassination culture is spreading on the left. Forty-eight percent of liberals say it would be at least somewhat justified to murder Elon Musk. Fifty-five percent said the same about Donald Trump. The left is being whipped into a violent frenzy. Any setback, whether losing an election or losing a court case, justifies a maximally violent response."

Mass migration especially of uneducated,unskilled people from poorer countries can only import the habits and cultural tendencies that keep those countries poor.
Import the third world, become the third world. There are some countries where the people have no social ethic. Instead they have a dog-eat-dog take-what-you-can attitude which is what has driven the spikes in crime and violence in western cities with large communities of recent immigrants. Then of course, on finding they're on the wrong side of a social crisis, the hand-wringing liberals who advocated for uncontrolled immigration start to refer to the immigrants as refugees and demand that we adjust our social norms to accommodate their anti - social agenda. And when that fails they say we should give them asylum. But when we do, well, they have a dog-eat-dog take-what-you-can ethos that results in crime and conflict. So it's time we stopped giving asylum, full stop.
Born in 1948, I am unaware of the situation after World War 2 and Windrush Era for want of a better label, that saw the first wave of immigration from commonwealth nations, but since about 1960 when I started to become aware of national and world affairs I cannot recall a time when the mass immigration of millions of people from across the world was necessary to keep our economy afloat. However, once employers realised that the attraction of living in a first world country, with 'free' money, healthcare, dentistry, education, plus subsidised housing etc was available to all, offering a low income was no deterrent to moving to Britain
Consequently, immigrants may well be doing the jobs others won't do, but remember that the others did them before mass immigration drove down the remuneration and effectively priced the others out of the market. An employee paying £10 a month in tax is still entitled to the same benefits as an emplotee paying £10,000 a month in tax.
One of the reasons cited in justification of mass immigration is that members of the young adult generation with low academic achievement are uninterested in working in low waged jobs as they are no worse off claiming benefits, so people must be brought in to fill the gap.
If we are to encourage the indigenous population to work, then the provision of cheap (almost slave ?) labour imported from abroad has to be curtailed. And that means a beefed up immigration policy that only allows in those who have passed very rigorous scrutiny. Beyond that, we must either deny entry of deport those that will act as a drag anchor on our beleagured economy. We need to be hard nosed on this - unsustainable, low skilled immigration will eventually kill us.
Perhaps a crunch reality here is that we have permitted - by one means or another - a general migration of anyone who chanced it to make the journey. Soft touch Britain, that's us.. None of these immigrants has been assessed for their contribution potential nor their cost to society, but they have been assessed as to their their human rights status, and the absence of any other scrutiny has created a welfare mechanism that just treats everyone similarly. Soft touch Britain, again.
However it is vital that we do not miss an important point. For political reasons, governments just aren't interested in doing a cost benefit analysis. Sunak wanted as many people as possible, so he could claim that GDP had risen, and Labour want as many new voters as possible, as well to give our resources to people from poor countries to atone for the evils of empire. The good of the country and whether there is any long-term benefit doesn't enter into it.
People from nations which have long term social problems due to these cultural differences have warned that politicians undertaking social engineering projets to rig future elections means they are reshaping the electorate whether intentional or not. Thus there is a constitutional crisis created as the demographic makeup of society is changed and before long we have representatives of alien cultures demanding their own legal codex, the replacement of local customs and traditions with theirs, impoprted from their country of oorigin. Then conflict between different ethnic and cultural traditions breaks out. Then what was a civilised nation becomes a lawless, violent failed state This is why a written constitution is fundamental to democracy.

Many of the problems afflicting Britain and its neighbours appear to be related to what has been called The Theraputic Society, Nanny State and paternalistic liberalism.

Double Blow To Irish Woke Wonks - Voters Reject ‘Progressive’ Reforms to the Constitution By Big Majorities

Varadkar admitted on Saturday that voters had delivered “two wallops” to the government, which, led by Leo himself, had pushed for a "Yes" vote on a pair of referendums.
On encountering my insense dislike of the Labour Party, people asume I am a Conservative. WRONG!

From their constant whines about the sexism, racism and homophobia of the working class who happen to be the party's core constituency to the substitution of smearing UKIP for policies in the european Election this is a party of arrested adolescents throwing a hissy fit because people are laughing at them.
A move to extend the government's power to order court proceedings to be held in secret and without a jury from only applying to trials affecting national security to anything the government would rather we did not know about threatens the most basic principles of British justice and the right to a fair trial.
These stupid laws insult the public and threaten free speech When the law forbids us to insult or offend somebody, to insult or offend a religion, race, skin colour or sexual preference, free speech and other important democratic rights are under threat. When the law then goes on to say that anyone accused of these offences has no right to defend themselves and the word of the accuser is sufficient evidence on which to obtain a conviction then we have abandoned justice and are ruled by fascists.
