Keir Starmer and Judges: Think your rights DONT MATTER

Featured Replies

In the UK, the debate over the balance between migrant rights and public safety has reached new heights, fueled by recent judicial decisions.

 

The controversy centers around the overturning of a temporary injunction that prevented illegal migrants from being housed at the Bell Hotel in Epping. This decision has sparked outrage among those who feel that the rights of illegal migrants are being prioritized over the fears and concerns of British citizens.

 

Critics argue that this reversal exposes significant flaws in the government's asylum system, which they describe as chaotic and poorly managed. Concerns have been raised that if the original judgement had been upheld, it would have led to widespread applications by councils throughout the country to remove the 32,000 migrants currently residing in hotels.

 

This contentious ruling has drawn attention to the role of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) in shaping UK policies. Yvette Cooper, defending the government's stance, pointed to ECHR guidelines that aim to prevent asylum seekers from becoming destitute.

 

However, critics claim that other European countries, like Germany, have managed to deport thousands of asylum seekers without violating human rights treaties. For example, Germany has successfully deported over 10,000 asylum seekers since May, including 102 failed Afghan asylum seekers in July, in cooperation with Qatar.

 

Calls for change have come from unexpected quarters, with former Labour Home Secretaries David Blunkett and Jack Straw suggesting that the UK reconsider its commitment to the ECHR. They argue that these rulings are advisory and not mandatory, and emphasize the possibility of amending the Human Rights Act to allow UK courts to disregard ECHR decisions.

 

The government's continued handling of migration issues has also come under scrutiny. Questions have been raised as to why the UK continues to see significant numbers of boat migrants arriving each month, with critics suggesting that the government could take stronger action to curb illegal immigration. These criticisms have intensified as the government struggles to provide adequate housing solutions, such as Nightingale-style detention centers, which critics argue could resolve the crisis.

 

Meanwhile, the legal community is facing criticism over perceptions that some judges are prioritizing political correctness over public safety, further intensifying public unrest. This perception has fueled demands for transparency in the legal process and has called into question the motives of certain legal actors.

 

As the government faces mounting pressure to navigate these challenges, the tension between adhering to international agreements and addressing domestic priorities continues to be a point of contention. The UK’s relationship with European legal standards is being scrutinized, and there is significant public demand for a clearer, more balanced approach.

 

The ongoing situation underscores the broader conversation about the role of international human rights guidelines in shaping national policy. With public trust at stake, the coming months will be critical as the government seeks to balance its humanitarian obligations with the need to ensure national security.

 

This dialogue is set to shape the political landscape, emphasizing the importance of maintaining national sovereignty while honoring international commitments. The UK must navigate complex legal and ethical considerations to find a path forward that satisfies the concerns of its citizens while fulfilling its international responsibilities.

Robinson did not uncover these grooming gangs; he amplified them in a way that risked undermining justice.

 

His narrative falsely positioned him as a whistleblower, but his actions simply jeopardised the prosecutions

Where is your evidence that the judgement was made on anything other than the law?

I think you missed the point.

It would be difficult to find "indigenous" people of the UK.

For many that would be "true blue anglo saxon" which is definitely not indigenous.

The UK has had many invasions over the past couple of thousand years and integrated many different nationalities.

So what  exactly is meant by indigenous?

"Originating or naturally occuring" doesn't quite fit the bill in my understanding.

Johnny,while "googling" may be your strong point, I believe understanding what you googled isn't:

 

"Indigenous" refers to people, plants, or animals that originated in a specific place before others arrived, especially before colonization, while "native" is a more general term meaning someone or something born or originating in a place, including a single person.

It is primarily the indigenous people of Britain that are being subjugated in Labour's 2 tier Britain.

 

Their attempts to bring in the racist, 2 tier sentencing guidelines is a good place for you to start your learning journey, since as a non-Brit you seem blissfully unaware of what is happening (although unfortunately that doesn't stop you running your mouth on the issue).

Is a bloke from Leeds on the 1st day of a trip to Japan who gets arrested described as a "Tokyo man" in Japanese media? Why not?

 

You know exactly what proper/real/traditional Brits are. Everyone does. Don't act dumb pls.

I have no idea, I’ve never stated there is such thing as a ‘Traditional, Chinese, Japanese, Kenyan or Mongolian’.

 

I don’t read the Japanese news.

 

I have no idea what ‘proper/real/tradition Brits are’, it’s you who’s insisting they exist, it’s for you to explain what they are.

I doubt it.

Funny. I thought it was Farage and the Tories who want to trash UK rights by withdrawing from ECHR etc.

 

More fake news I suppose.

 

Don't it always seem to go,

I know......white skin...absolute prerequisite.

 

Holiday tans acceptable. Some curly hair is allowed, but absolutely no evidence of swarthy Arab like beards (on the women at least), definitely no slanty eyes.

 

Spoken English doesn't have to be Queen's (King's) English, any corruption is allowed, Cockney, Geordie, Scouse......but there must be no trace of a foreign twang of any sort.

 

Sadly that means none of my grandchildren qualify as being British.

Give so-called "migrants" first-class treatment while urinating on UK citizens.  Really, how many native Brits who have lost employment are put up in hotels by the government and given amenities. In the meanwhile, poor UK citizens struggle living rough on the streets.  Why not give down-and-out citizens that same care to get them back on their feet?

I’m not sure what a ‘Traditional Brit’ is but on the basis of who uses the term and how, I’m beginning to believe it’s shorthand for something nasty.

The reason poor people in the UK, many of whom are working full time, are struggling to get by in the UK has nothing at all to do with asylum seekers.


It does have a lot to do with the very politicians telling Britain’s poor to blame asylum seekers.

Over 5 Billion spent on asylum seekers every year. Money that could be spent on British people. On schools, the NHS, social care etc.

 

To suggest that money has no effect on poor, tax paying Brits is simply untrue.

You must be referring to Cheddar Man.

 

Cheddar Man was an indigenous Briton from the Mesolithic period (around 10,000 years ago), whose ancient DNA revealed he had dark skin, blue eyes, and dark hair. He was a hunter-gatherer and lived in what is now Somerset, making him the oldest, nearly complete human skeleton found in Britain. His unique combination of features challenged previous assumptions about early European appearance and was a result of his deep ancestry as a hunter-gatherer.

Good information.

It is also of some note that, at that time, Britain and Ireland were not separated from what is now Europe by the North sea.

Any Mesolithic man woman or child could walk into the UK Visa Free.

Then the sea came followed a few thousand years later by politicians from Italy.

You assume that money would be spent on the general population.

 

But don’t get me wrong, the cost is far too high having been allowed to climb rapidly and totally unchecked since around 2015.

 

On the upside crates of money are not being sent to Rwanda and is now being spent on clearing the appallingly high asylum seeker backlog.
