The British Public Have Had Enough, and the State is Afraid

Tuesday 29 July will mark one year since the Southport murders, when second-generation Rwandan immigrant Axel Rudakubana murdered three girls and stabbed ten others at a Taylor Swift dance class in Merseyside, England. Labour-voting areas were engulfed in spontaneous protests for the following week. Keir Starmer staked his premiership on calling all participants “far right thugs”, but most were local residents distraught at the deaths of children like their own, and despairing that the state was unwilling to prevent such atrocities from happening again. “How many more children, Prime Minister?” shouted the grieving families of Southport at Starmer as he laid a wreath, before leaving in silence. “Our kids are dead and you’re leaving already?”

The state remains terrified of the flammable social situation they preside over. Last week, Starmer briefed his Cabinet about the “vital” need to repair Britain’s “social fabric” to prevent another summer of civil unrest. Liz Lloyd, Downing Street’s executive director of policy and delivery, recommended a “more forceful” policy on law and order to reverse Starmer’s cratering poll numbers. Hence why the authorities have come down hard on parents peacefully protesting illegal immigration in Epping, Essex. Eight days after breaking into Britain via small boat, 41-year-old Ethiopian illegal immigrant Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu (38) allegedly sexually harassed a 14-year-old girl. After he was charged with three sex offences, Epping residents realised the Bell Hotel was housing single-male asylum seekers.
