Well said Peter..

I hate doing this, because people are just people. But:
82% of the UK's population are white.
86% of the UK's MPs are white.
88% of people in the ads below (comments) are white..........

Visit Kent shuts down: a warning sign for UK tourism The sudden closure of the Canterbury-based tourism agency is a blow to the Kent economy and raises questions about the government's approach

Causes for the closure include “the impact on tourism of post-Brexit border controls.”

Brexit was, is and will always be a disaster.

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade.
Look at what he does, ffs.
Look at his tax affairs.
Look at his grifting.
Look at his lies.
Look at his prejudice.
Look at his allies.
Look at his manifesto.
Look at his Brexit.
He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.

The survivors of the Epstein paedophillia is triggering for every person who has suffered child sex abuse. It brings their memories back too.

The women at the press conference are so brave to come forward. All power to them.

My Journey with LGBT+ Refugees.

Behind every asylum claim is a life unrepeatable, wounded, sacred.

We need to see beyond statistics and into the soul of the journey: from persecution to pride, from fear to healing.

Nigel Farage’s weaponisation of women’s safety to further his anti-immigration stance is harmful to us all 'To use women’s lives as a political prop while simultaneously advocating for politics that would harm them is hypocrisy at its ugliest.'

The danger we face is not asylum seekers in hotels. It is a political culture that dresses racism in pink and calls it protection while cutting services victims need to survive.

Any government serious about ending VAWG must stop blaming migrants and start resourcing the frontline.

Those genuinely concerned about violence against women must reject its weaponisation, which is harming minoritised communities and our ability to address the issues that need attention: investment in prevention work and funding for the life-changing services that support survivors #NotInOurName

Joining Reform put MPs at increased exposure when it comes to domestic violence, etc. At present, 25% of Reform MPs have convictions for domestic violence, despite their supporters claiming to stalk hotels to protect women and girls. Any MP defecting will face scrutiny - and rightly so. #VAWG

The Centre for Migration Control?

A “Think Tank” ran seemingly by one guy called Robert Bates, a Senior Reform Campaigner in the Channel 4 Documentary released last year ‘Undercover inside Reform’s campaign’.

His data is wrong and purposely misleading.

His "data" was also used by Kent Reform Cllrs to vote DOWN a motion presented by the Green Party to help combat VAWG. They used Robert's "stats" to try and justify why...they claim the motion was "Virtue Signalling" and that we need to concentrate on "the real issues".
