IF you want a sense of how insane things in Britain have become, and how quickly they are spiralling out of control, then consider what we have learned in just the last two months alone.
In Epping, an Ethiopian asylum-seeker named Hadush Kebatu, is accused of sexually assaulting a local schoolgirl.
In Stockport, a migrant from Sudan, named Edris Abdelrazig, staying in a hotel paid for by British taxpayers, is accused of trying to kidnap a ten-year-old schoolgirl.
In Nuneaton, two men, named Ahmad Mulakhil and Mohammad Kabir, stand accused of kidnapping, strangling and raping a 12-year-old girl.
And in Lambeth, London, another asylum-seeker named Kamran Khan, aged 43, from Pakistan, stands accused of raping an eight-year-old girl.
And these are only a few of the truly hideous allegations of rapes, sexual assaults and crimes that are said to have been committed by illegal migrants and asylum-seekers against the British people and their children.
Abuse of children
And which in some cases, as in Nuneaton, the authorities tried to cover up.
Which is why, amid all this chaos and carnage, millions of hardworking, law-abiding Brits are utterly furious with what Keir Starmer, Yvette Cooper and their hapless Labour government are doing to the country we love, and the children we want to protect.
United by a palpable and now overwhelming sense they are losing their country, over the weekend thousands of Brits went even further, continuing to take to the streets to protest peacefully and vent their righteous anger.
Those in power, of course, would have you believe the anti-migrant protests reflect “far-right extremism”, or “misinformation” among the British public.
But this is nonsense. Why?
Because what is unfolding is far more troubling for the utterly incompetent Keir Starmer, his useless Home Secretary Yvette Cooper and a Labour government whose approval rating has now crashed to just 13 per cent.
While there will always be a few bad apples at protests, on the whole the demonstrations against illegal migrants, broken borders and the sexual abuse of our children have been organic and spontaneous.
They have emerged from the bottom up, among ordinary people who have simply had enough, not orchestrated top down by hardened extremists.
It is difficult, for example, to call a gathering of British women and girls wearing pink, talking about protecting their children, and performing a cheerful conga outside an asylum hotel “far-right extremists”.
But this is what Labour elites want you to think because it is the only argument that they have left.
“Don’t look at our failure to control Britain’s borders and keep you safe — look at those ‘far-right’ people over there,” they say.
It is a standard playbook on the left of politics. Only, nobody is falling for it any more. Everybody can see through it.
Out-of-touch liberal centrists
So let me say something that nobody on the left, nor out-of-touch liberal centrists from Rory Stewart to James O’Brien would ever openly admit.
It is not the “far-right” that is causing all this righteous anger; it is the Labour Party’s total failure to control our borders.
It is not “the far-right” that is pushing this country towards civil unrest; it is all those Labour politicians who think it is somehow acceptable to put illegal migrants — who we know include alleged murderers, rapists, terrorists and Isis sympathisers, and some who even film themselves chanting “Allahu Akbar” as they arrive illegally in the small boats — in the heart of our communities, next to our families and children.
It is not “the far-right” that is forcing the British people to pay £5.5 million every day to house people they never wanted in their country, or £15 billion over the next decade. It is the Labour Party.
And it is not “the far-right” that, even more shockingly, is allowing private firms to use the British people’s own money to offer more favourable contracts to landlords who prioritise illegal migrants and asylum seekers over tax-paying British people. It is the Labour Party.
And it’s not just the far-right who have been misleading the British people while at the same time accusing people of “misinformation”.
One of the most shocking aspects of the Nuneaton case, for example, was the extent to which authorities quickly advised politicians and officials not to reveal the fact the alleged rapists were asylum seekers for fear of, you guessed it, “inflaming community tensions”.
Taxpayer-funded authorities, in other words, appear more concerned about managing the possible reaction among the British people than the horrifying claims that children are being raped by foreigners who were allowed into this country by our own government.
Was this not the exact same mindset, the exact same logic, that led to the decades-long cover-up of the rape gang scandal to begin with?
Breaking point
It is the Labour Party that has completely forgotten its obligation to prioritise our own people and keep them safe and it is the Labour Party that is riding roughshod over the sense of fairness that has long defined our national culture.
And now the British people have had enough.
The Chinese philosopher Confucius once said that when rulers do not care for their own people, the people will stop caring their rulers.
And this is exactly what is unfolding in Britain.
A people, a country, are being pushed to the very edge, into civil unrest, as the social contract that once united them with the politicians who are supposed to put them first breaks down.
And you know what? Those politicians, those hapless Labour politicians, only have themselves to blame.
Because it is they, not the far-right, who have pushed us all to breaking point.
It is absurd that the Labour Party is only now talking about deporting foreign national criminals to make our country safer and save taxpayers’ cash, while at the very same time running an open-border policy bringing in an assortment of dubious characters — if not criminals — into our country.
One in eight prisoners in England and Wales is foreign-born, costing an estimated £580million a year.
Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood claims the message to foreign criminals is clear: “Break Britain’s laws and you’ll be sent packing.”
One can’t help but ask the question: If Labour is now prioritising the deporting of foreign criminals, then when exactly will they prioritise the removal of more than 170,000 illegal migrants who have already broken our laws by entering Britain on small boats since 2018?
