Nigel Farage, has proposed a mass deportation plan called "Operation Restoring Justice," which includes creating a "UK Deportation Command" modelled on the U.S. ICE.

Don't vote Reform unless you want innocent blood on UK streets like we see in the USA.

This "conflicting accounts" narrative of the BBC's is a much bigger problem than they seem to think.

The huge issue is not false balance - it's that they're NOT reporting the biggest story of today: the fact the US Government is lying about its own forces killing a US citizen.

NOBODY is talking about that!

EVERYBODY is asking WHERE THE HELL are the FULL Epstein files? You know, that BIGLY DEADLINE you MISSED...

And WHY are you sending ICE out to the streets to KILL and BULLY everyday Americans?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION!

This must end!

From 1st Feb all written USA English will be subject to a charge of £0.01 per word. (£0.02 for all CRIMINALLY misspelt words using 'z')
Extending from June to all spoken words

Thank you for your attention

Constantly amazed by the number of people I see standing at Pelican Crossings expecting the lights to change without having pressed the button!

Some of whom then wander through the traffic anyway

Hey UK

You don't hire the same builders, with a proven record of failure, to work on your new extension just because they got a new name

You just don't

US administration is desperate to have one it's ICE agents shot, isn't it?

The only excuse it needs
January 10, 2026 at 1:15 PM
Thought experiment: reverse roles; the shooter is a protestor, ICE driver in his car

If you believe Vance etc would still be defending the shooter (and not imposing martial law in MN), the self-defence car-weaponisation case is made

It's not hard

Don't be gaslit

Hey MAGATs remember, BEFORE hitting play on a Minnesota-like video, put your prejudice glasses on correctly!

If the man with the gun is black / Muslim the terrorist is *outside* the car, otherwise the terrorist is *inside* the car

Easy. no thought required

Who can honestly say they haven't 'weaponised' their vehicle by pulling out onto a residential street?

After that #CIII Christmas message the USA could do a lot worse than electing a proper king again!

(although the only journey he did miss out was the flight of the Holy Family to Egypt as refugees)

Oh @channel4news.bsky.social please do look up 'exponential growth' in the annual flu epidemic

55% is not surprising

THE problem is NHS under-resourcing not a DEATH virus

If Russia is banned for its war of aggression and atrocities against civilians in Ukraine, Israel should be banned for its genocide in Gaza.

This should not be hard for anyone with a shred of moral/intellectual integrity.
