I have mentioned why I have commented on ethnicity. I'm not racist. It's to try and dispelled the idea among many that all illegals are non white.

There are Reform and Restore followers out there that truly believe these parties will make Britain "White" by deporting all non whites.

As for deporting all illegals. The main problem is finding them. Once found, many are deported. There have been over 40000 deportations since 2024.

I watch GB news regularly, and I listen to what the likes of Farage and Rupert Lowe have to say, I have never heard either of those two politicians or indeed anybody else representing Reform , Restore or any other political party or indeed anybody else on the channel make remarks about skin colour when discussing migrants.

The only person talking about making Britain white again or deporting non whites is you , as you arrogantly claim to be attempting to dispel the ideas among "many" (presumably those you consider less enlightened than yourself) that illegals are all non white

Nobody cares what colour they are, how could they ? that would be racist, But the vast majority of people just want them gone, simple as that ,

Starmer knew this before he decided to run for the PM's job but like one of those stupid women who marries a "bad boy" he thought he could change the views of the public to match those of himself and his lefty mates, when he realised he could not he branded the majority of the British people "extreme right wing" not a wise move, and then to add insult to injury he claimed anybody seeking justice for the grooming gang victims was "jumping on a right wing bandwagon" he really is a piece of work.

If indeed there have been only 40,000 deportations then somebody needs to pull their socks up, as that is nowhere near enough

I said "reform followers".

Your accusations about my reasons for posting are so wide of the mark it's laughable. However, as it seems to be down to lack of comprehension skills, I can only sympathise rather than take offence.

Of course Farage and the Reform hierarchy aren't going to openly and publicly discuss skin colour or race. They leave that to the growing list of excitable underlings and wannabe candidates who get caught for talking smack on their social media platforms, most of them doing so before they got sucked into the system and poorly vetted in the rush to claim surging party membership sign-ups.

But, having said all that, isn't one of Reform's publicly stated plans to cancel indefinite leave to remain and send those currently living and working in the UK under that immigration status, "back home"?

You clearly didn't read any of the links. Youve also not taken time to attempt to comprehend what I've been saying.

Illegal immigrants don't get hotel accommodation. They don't get money. They don't get benefits.

Those in hotels are Asylum Seekers. Also, if their accommodation provides meals, they only get £9, not £49 and definitely not £50. They don't get free mobiles from the tax payer either. Any phones that might be distributed are given by refugee charities.

We don't know who they are where there from what crimes there running from, so stop all this nonsense about Asylum seekers as opposed to illegal's coming over the Channel in rubber boats, or in your opinion are they all fleeing warzones.

Explain this

s of 2026, asylum seekers (people waiting for a decision on their claim) in the UK usually receive £49.18 per week for each person in their household to pay for food, clothing, and toiletries. If they are provided with full-board accommodation, the weekly allowance is lower, often £9.95 per person.

You are correct. You are now agreeing with me. If only you'd accepted that before. It would have saved time.

You even point out the whereabouts of some are unknown. I mentioned that before too. They are illegal immigrants and they don't get benefits, as I mentioned before.

Those that claim Asylum and have their claim accepted, are Asylum Seekers. They get accommodation until their clsim has been processed, as I mentioned before. It's not for me or you to decide the vadility of their claims, that's a job for immigration.

As I was saying...

"A Reform UK councillor has resigned days after being elected, after he allegedly celebrated on social media the rape of a Sikh woman in the Midlands, declared white people the “master race” and called Muslim people “rats”.

Stuart Prior was elected as a councillor for Essex county council last Thursday, winning 2,404 votes, the highest total of any candidate in the ward. ..."

Give them time.

They are anti everything that most people hold dear, society, social norms, the feeling of belonging to their own country. That would happily see most industries closed down under the guise of saving the planet to the point that the majority of the population are either on government benefits and the rest in some sort of serfdom. Of course their own elites will be living the good life. Their vision is remake of Orwell's 1984.

Too many on the left welcome illegals with open arms, as long as they don't affect them personally. Also known as hypocrisy

I admire your patience! Some 'Reformers' will refuse to accept the truth. They have some sympathy from me as they are living in cesspit of disinformation deliberately created and fostered by social media. Facts are not their strength!

Meanwhile, you dwell in a repository of left-wing disinformation and hatred, particularly of the British working class.

Then, rather than consider any of the reasons why many UK citizens now support Reform, you take your catharsis from the intellectually bankrupt tactic of sneering at them and insulting them. Graceless and classless, but archetypical of left wing snobbery.

And you have the temerity to talk about truth, and facts, when those two essentials are absent from your own comments.

Starmer will be lucky if he is in a job today as over 73 labour MPs have asked him to resighn. 4 front bench members close to him have also told him to go including Lammy, Shabana Mahmood, Wes Streeting and Yvette Cooper. They have all asked Starmer to set a time table to go. A meeting is set this morning in Downing Street where these have said either go or we will go and he wiil throw the towel in.
