UK Govt Finally Admits Failure on Illegal Immigration

Michael Tomlinson, the British government minister responsible for illegal immigration, admits the government is failing to stop illegal aliens from crossing the English Channel in small boats. He claims the issue, which has badly damaged the Conservative (Tory) Party’s standing on immigration, will finally be resolved if they are reelected on July 4.

“If we vote for the Conservative Party, the planes are booked, the airstrip is ready, and the full deterrent effect will kick in,” Tomlinson claims, referring to the Rwanda policy, which would see boat migrants transported to asylum accommodation in the East African country.

However, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has allowed leftist judges to repeatedly block migrant flights to Rwanda, often citing European law the Conservatives have not repealed despite Brexit. Sunak has also suspended the implementation of the policy until after the July 4 snap election, which has led many to suspect he believes judges are poised to block it yet again.

‘HOW MUCH WORSE COULD IT BE?’

On Tuesday, Reform Party leader Nigel Farage watched a boatload of migrants that will take the number of Channel crossings since Sunak became Prime Minister to over 50,000 being escorted into British waters by a French vessel.

Farage observed, “128,000 people have come, 90 percent of them young men… from areas plagued by terrorism, gang crime, [and] with attitudes towards women that we would find completely unacceptable. I mean, how much worse could it be under Labour?”

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, projected to win the snap election with a large majority, has vowed to scrap the Rwanda policy.

Farage’s Reform Party is polling in second place nationally, ahead of the Conservatives. Due to the nature of the British electoral system, Reform is unlikely to win as many seats as the governing party, but Farage believes he can establish a parliamentary “bridgehead” from which he can challenge Labour in 2029.

Now a Tawdry Election Betting Scandal Has Gripped the UK Election

An insider-knowledge betting scandal is tainting the British general election. Senior Conservative Party figures—and even some police officers—stand accused of using inside info to place bets on the election date shortly before it was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

Sunak’s Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) Craig Williams, also a parliamentary candidate, admits placing a £100 (~$128) bet at 5-1 odds on Sunak calling the election for July 4. The Gambling Commission is investigating him, leading to his suspension as a Conservative candidate—though it’s too late to remove him from the ballots.

He insists he “committed an error of judgment, not an offense” and “intend[s] to clear [his] name.”

The Gambling Commission is also investigating Laura Saunders, another candidate, suspecting she learned the election date from her husband, Tony Lee, the Conservative Party’s director of campaigns. The Commission is also probing Lee. The party has suspended Saunders along with Willams.

A more comprehensive investigation now encompasses a significant number of candidates, candidates’ relatives, and candidates’ friends. Data analysis shows a highly suspicious surge in election day bets just before Sunak announced the date.

Several police officers are implicated in the scandal, with one of Sunak’s close protection officers becoming the first of six officers placed under investigation. Authorities arrested this officer for misconduct in public office, with some questioning why he is facing harsher treatment than the politicians suspected of wrongdoing.

Efforts by Conservatives to reap relatively small sums of money from the election as they face a landslide defeat have further damaged their public reputation. Nigel Farage’s Reform Party leads the Conservatives nationally.

Tommy Robinson Arrested in Canada.

Plainclothes officers in Alberta, Canada, have arrested independent journalist and anti-grooming gangs activist Tommy Robinson shortly after he finished delivering a speech against mass migration in Calgary. He delivered a defiant “F**k Justin Trudeau” as he was forced into a police car in handcuffs.

Robinson shot a covert video in the police car after his arrest, asking who had ordered it. Officers informed him that it had been authorized by “the minister’s delegate”—referring to a minister in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s far-left government.

Robinson has now been released, but the Trudeau regime is ordering him to turn in his passport and remain in southern Alberta until a hearing is arranged. He says he has not been told why the state is pursuing him beyond “immigration violations.”

His release conditions prevent him not only from returning home but from delivering planned speeches in Edmonton and Toronto.

The British government is also pursuing Robinson. The Attorney General’s Office–run by a Conservative Member of Parliament (MP)–is moving a case against him for alleged contempt of court related to a defamation settlement. The far-left HOPE Not Hate organization funded by George Soros is the instigator in the case, having presented the Attorney General’s Office with a dossier of supposed evidence against Robinson.

This follows a failed attempt by London’s Metropolitan Police to prosecute Robinson for failing to comply with a dispersal order. The force had pepper-sprayed and forcibly ejected Robinson from a march against anti-Semitism, claiming his mere presence was causing “alarm and distress.” A judge ruled the order was not lawful.

Airline Suspends Staff for ‘Fat Shaming’ In PRIVATE Texts.

British Airways has suspended two crew members for allegedly mocking an obese colleague’s weight in a private messaging group. They reportedly made fun of a 15-stone (210 lbs) stewardess in a WhatsApp chat that did not include her. Another staffer informed on them.

British Airways confirmed the suspension of the two staff members and announced a formal investigation. “We have a zero tolerance approach to bullying and always fully investigate any allegations brought to our attention,” the airline stated.

A source tells the British press that the “poor victim of the merciless fat jokes has been left utterly bereft,” and is now “scared to leave the house.”

Cabin crew members must perform manual tasks such as reaching overhead lockers and opening aircraft doors. British Airways specifies that cabin crew must meet certain height and reach requirements to be able to perform their duties effectively. However, there is no maximum weight limit for crew members.

Western airlines in the U.S. have been making accommodations for obese passengers for years, with Southwest Airlines having offered a free extra seat to so-called ‘Customers of Size’ who “encroach upon any part of the neighboring seat[s]” for decades.

Rishi Sunak’s Deportation Plan Is ‘Crap,’ Admits Top Government Aide.

A senior aide to British Home Secretary James Cleverly admits Prime Minister Rishi Sunak‘s now-scrapped Rwanda migrant deportation plan was “crap,” according to a leaked recording from an April private meeting. James Sunderland, Parliamentary Private Secretary to Cleverly and a Conservative election candidate, said, “I have been part of this for the last two years… nobody has got their cameras or phones on, have they? The policy is crap, OK? It’s crap.”

Defending his aide’s remarks, the Home Secretary claimed Sunderland intended to capture attention and have a dramatic effect and that he supports the plan. Cleverly also allegedly criticized the policy, describing it as “bats**t”—although he denied using such language.

The National Pulse reported in December that the Conservative government had spent nearly £300 million on its Rwanda deportation policy even though the newest version of the plan would only possibly see a handful of migrants sent to the African nation.

Cleverly hailed the revised agreement with Rwanda at the time, stressing that it “addresses all the issues raised by their lordships in the Supreme Court.”

Prior to court intervention, Rwanda received £140 million from the United Kingdom as part of the original deal devised by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. No migrants were relocated to Rwanda under the original agreement before the UK courts ruled it unlawful.

Following the court battle, Prime Minister Sunak announced he was suspending the deportation plan until after the July 4 election, which his party is projected to lose in a potential landslide. Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party, projected to win with a large majority, is pledging to scrap the policy altogether.

‘Election Interference’ – State Regulator Limits TV Coverage of Farage’s Party to 8%.

The Office of Communications (Ofcom), the state regulator of television and radio communications in Britain, has set Nigel Farage’s share of election coverage at just eight percent, despite the fact they are tying or ahead of the governing Conservatives (Tories) in national polls.

“We’re trailing [the Conservatives] in Scotland and in London, but in most of England, we are now clearly the challengers to Labour,” Farage said in a video statement on the situation.

“But we are having a major problem; a huge problem,” he said, noting his Reform Party’s relative lack of coverage by the state-owned BBC and Channel 4 and even independent broadcasters like GBNews.

“Why is this? Well, I’ll tell you: the regulator of broadcasters in Britain is Ofcom,” he explained. “Stuffed full of establishment types. And the rules they’ve given broadcasters are very simple… the main determinant of how much coverage each party gets is their performance in the last two elections. Well, Reform UK is brand new. We’ve never contested a national election before,” he said.

“Because of that, the coverage we’re allocated is eight percent. We are getting the same level of coverage as the Green Party despite the fact we’re polling more than three times their number.”

Farage argues that the establishment designed the rules to keep British politics and broadcasting as “a nice, cozy club,” shutting out “new challengers.”

“This is now an outrage; this now amounts to election interference,” he said. “Ofcom are a disgrace. They’re almost rigging this election in favor of the existing parties,” he added.

Reform is investigating possible legal action—but less than two weeks remain before election day on July 4.

‘VIRUS OF PUTIN’ – Zelensky Lashes Out Against Farage in Blatant & False Election Interference Attempt.

Corrupt Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has falsely accused Reform UK leader Nigel Farage of being influenced by Russian government narratives. A “source” in Zelensky’s office told the Daily Mail: “The virus of Putinism, unfortunately, infects people.”

This follows Farage’s explanation during a BBC Panorama interview that Western actions precipitated Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak called Farage’s “completely wrong,” arguing they somehow aid Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Home Secretary James Cleverly accused Farage of “echoing Putin’s justification” for the invasion, even though Farage’s comments on the matter have remained consistent for over 10 years, far prior to Putin’s invasion.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer condemned Farage’s remarks as “disgraceful,” insisting that Russia is the sole aggressor in the conflict.

Earlier this year, Britain’s former NATO Secretary General admitted in remarks to the New Statesman: “He’s not bothered about Nato, or Nato enlargement. He’s bothered by the European Union. The whole Ukraine crisis started with the offer of an [EU] accession agreement to Ukraine [in 2014].”

Leading economist Jeffrey Sachs also recently lectured Piers Morgan on the topic, blaming Western provocation and expansionism.

The debate continues as President Zelensky announced a significant milestone on Ukraine’s path to EU membership, which he hailed as a historic step.

Is Britain’s Labour Victory a National Embrace of the Left, or a Repudiation of the Fake Right?

Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, has explained the British electorate is not poised to usher in a leftist government because it is embracing leftist ideology but because the ruling Conservatives (Tories) have comprehensively betrayed their base.

War Room host Stephen K. Bannon asked Kassam, a reform advisor to Brexit leader Nigel Farage, why the Brexit vote in 2016 did not “immediately not spawn a populist nationalist movement” comparable to MAGA in the U.S.

Kassam noted that Tories “usurped” Brexit after the referendum—even though most Tory lawmakers campaigned against it—and “really slow-rolled the whole thing.”

“The reason that the United Kingdom right now is pulling to the left, is pulling to the Labour Party, is not because there is this great feeling that, ‘Oh, [Labour leader] Sir Keir Starmer, this bureaucrat and his Cabinet of mostly DEI appointments, can come along and improve the country,” he explained.

“No, this election is a repudiation of the Conservative Party, of the Conservative Party’s arrogance, of the lockdown measures during Covid, of its anti-Brexit, you know, forced Brexit behavior,” he stressed.

FARAGE 2029.

Kassam said this is why Farage is “gambling” on a political comeback, seeking to break into Parliament knowing that Labour is likely to alienate the public as badly as the Conservatives have over a four- to five-year term.

“He’s got a chance then to come in and say, look, you thought the Conservative Party in government doesn’t work, [Labour] really doesn’t work, and that will lead, I think, to a major major shift,” Kassam said.

“You can sense it, you can feel it,” he said of the political mood, predicting things are “shifting” and that it will take just “one more election cycle to get there.”

ANOTHER New Scandal in Plaguing British Politics…

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is being urged to initiate an inquiry following the arrest of a Metropolitan Police officer assigned to his protection detail over allegations of betting on the timing of the next General Election. According to the Metropolitan Police, the investigation was prompted by information from the Gambling Commission.

The officer from the Royalty and Specialist Protection Command has been relieved of operational duties and was released on bail after being arrested on Monday on suspicion of misconduct in a public office. Meanwhile, the investigation has been referred to the Independent Office for Police Conduct, which will determine its level of involvement. The Crown Prosecution Service defines misconduct in a public office as serious, willful abuse or neglect of authority, applicable to various public officials, including police constables.

In another troubling instance, the Gambling Commission announced it is investigating several potential offenses relating to the election date. Its probe includes Craig Williams, who served as Sunak’s parliamentary private secretary and is the Conservative candidate for Montgomeryshire and Glyndwr. Additionally, the commission announced a second Conservative candidate was under investigation late on Wednesday.

Liberal Democrat deputy leader Daisy Cooper called for a Cabinet Office inquiry, describing the situation as a potential government scandal. “Rishi Sunak must call a Cabinet Office inquiry into what is shaping up to be yet another scandal at the heart of Government,” Cooper stated. She emphasized the need for clarity on the incident.

A spokesman for the Conservative Party confirmed contact with the Gambling Commission regarding multiple individuals but refrained from further comment, citing the Commission’s independence. Sunak remarked on the incident involving Williams, labeling it “very disappointing.” Williams has expressed regret, noting the significant error in his judgment.

Ex-Boris Adviser Warns of ‘Massacre’ for UK Conservatives.

British political strategist Thomas Corbett-Dillon—who once advised ex-British Prime Minister Boris Johnson—is forecasting a significant defeat for the Conservative Party in the upcoming United Kingdom (UK) general election on July 4. Corbett-Dillon made his prediction during an interview on the John Solomon Reports podcast, stating that he also believes many in Great Britain will welcome the potential landslide loss.

The former adviser to Johnson criticized the Conservatives, accusing them of failing to deliver on their electoral promises, and expressed a belief that this failure will lead to their downfall. He noted that British voters are ready to hold the Conservatives, including current Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, accountable for unfulfilled commitments. “You cannot get elected on promises and then not do what the people want you to do,” said Corbett-Dillon. “They deserve to lose their seats.”

Currently, the Conservative Party holds the majority in the UK Parliament. However, widespread anger over the party’s failure to address the nation’s migrant crisis, a sluggish economy, and inability to ensure basic government functions has resulted in what appears to be a significant electoral backlash. Corbett-Dillon pointed out that while many UK residents have conservative views, they are dissatisfied with the existing leadership.

Corbett-Dillon expressed hope that UK politicians might adapt and align themselves more closely with Republican principles in the United States, stating: “Hopefully, they are gonna start changing their tune, and maybe we’ll see the Conservatives become more like the Republicans, but I’m not holding out hope.”

The National Pulse reported last week that Nigel Farage’s Reform UK has overtaken the Conservative Party in recent polls. Farage said he intends to form the opposition to Labour after the election, supplanting the Conservatives.
