In the same vein as my erstwhile friend Academic Agent, I am retiring my X account, effective immediately. This post will remain pinned, and the account will exist only so that I can use the messaging function for friends and colleagues. You may have noticed my lack of postings

The UK Government has given over £37,000,000 to Mosques this year, including £10,000,000 for security. Christian churches receive nothing.

In the UK, from 2022-2024, FOI requests reveal approximately 7000 cases of anti-Christian attacks on churches. The actual figure is probably much higher as only 73% of police forces actually provided figures. That's 6.5 attacks on churches taking place every single day, THAT

During the Black Death, Scotland suffered a population decline of 30-50%. This was tragic, because at the time, Scottish elites didn't have the means to replace that lost population with Somalians. As a result, wages for the average peasant sadly tripled.

Scottish live births are at the lowest ever since records began in 1855. Gee golly, wonder what the reason could be? nrscotland.gov.uk/latest-news/re…

Representation does matter. Which is why you can be 4% and not 50%.

“food costs too much.” “remigrate 5 million people.” “housing prices are too high.” “remigrate 5 million people.” “there aren’t enough good paying jobs.” “remigrate 5 million people.” “you can’t just keep proposing…” “remigrate 5 million people.”

"You've only been eating and perfecting dishes with it for 400 years, it can't possibly be part of your native cuisine" Do you realise how stupid that sounds?

What counts as "native"? The potato is a New World vegetable, it did not appear in Europe until the last 400 years or so

If you made this image with imams, indians, Asians or blacks, you would be in a prison cell awaiting trial already

When you get more time in prison for a 3 hour angry tweet than sexually assaulting a 14 year old girl, you know Britain is fundamentally broken

🇬🇧 Two foreign delivery men who sexually assaulted a 14yo teenage girl in her own home have been jailed for two-and-a-half years. Lucy Connolly, by contrast, received 2 years and 7 months for a hastily written and deleted tweet! Justice is BROKEN in the UK!

The migrants raped women and kids Bob. That is why locals are protesting.
