I am using a “photoshopped” copy of a screenshot of Miss Taylor Swift’s heartfelt and genuine letter of condolence to the grieving families of the victims of the murderous attack that Rudakubana has been charged with. The young man will be eighteen and legally an adult in less than a week which is why the judge has allowed an exception to the anonymity normally granted to minors charged with such offences.
The reason for my publication of Miss Swift’s letter is that this young lady has managed to convey condolences that the recently appointed Home Secretary Yvette Cooper aka Mrs Edward Balls singularly failed to do. Mrs Balls it seems was far more concerned at policing her words for the woman has to walk the political tightrope that is the EDI tightrope that is the mainstream party discipline of the early 21st Century!
I have no doubt that Miss Swift’s heart was broken when she listened to the reports coming from Southport. This is a lady who like other ladies can empathise with the loss the families of the three little girls are suffering. Not for this lady thoughts of how this will slot into a particular political grove.
Of course, to our political ruling class the fact that Rudakubana’s family is not Muslim is a great relief. That Rudakubana’s family is black is not a relief. The court case will presumably reveal the motive behind the murders and attempted murders. Most assume it will be mental health issues that were the cause – as in the case of the not so long ago murders in Nottingham.
There is of course a whole lot more about this case as has been commented and examined on Dr. North’s blog-post today: https://www.turbulenttimes.co.uk/news/front-page/law-and-order-the-end-of-rationality/
At this point in time, I am firmly of the opinion that the former Prime Minister, the Fortunate Sunak is happy being the temporary Leader of His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition now tasked with taking on the Unfortunate Sir Keir at PMQ’s!
The FACTS of the matter are these: The mainstream political parties (those with MPs elected to Parliament) are bound to a greater (the Labour Party) or lesser (the Reform Party) extent by the self destructive woke agenda and the EDI (Exclusion, Discrimination & Inequality) philosophy that will cause them to double down on their existing policies of identity politics which will inevitably exacerbate the situation in British politics further.
That the new Labour government will feel compelled to bring in it’s increased restrictions on freedom of expression insofar as Muslims and Islam are concerned will only add fuel to the fire!
We will inevitably see even more blatant examples of “two tier policing” in respect of different “communities” and the mainstream politicians and media becoming ever more careful to walk on eggshells.
Their problem of course is the reach of mainstream media! Back in the 20th Century the BBC and ITV and the Fleet Street newspapers had more or less control of the news agenda. The advent of internet broadband and “social media” has changed all that!
Back in the 1960s the technology to broadcast audio and visual reports was vastly expensive and completely unavailable to the “Man in the Street”. In 2024 we have individuals armed with “smartphones” able to make broadcast quality reports and have them published across the globe. This has developed to such an extent that large numbers of people now get most of their news from “social media” and the BBC and ITV are loosing viewers at a colossal rate.
That the situation will get worse with so called “White Britons” being charged and convicted with “Islamophobia” for publishing critical comments about Muslims and Islam and when there will be continuing examples of “two tier” policing in respect of demonstrations and new terrorist outrages committed by members of our diverse communities the situation will go from bad to very much worse!
