It's nothing new but it's the undefeatable proposition. There's no credible counterargument and the most disturbing thing is how many people understand that it's true while also pushing for Israeli disarmament.

Labour Loves the Countryside. It Just Hates the People Who Run It.
A woman walks into a tailor's shop in Helmsley, North Yorkshire. She loves the heather hills, she says. The wooded dales. The purple moorland stretching to the horizon. What she cannot stand is the shooting that takes place on the Glorious Twelfth.
Jeremy Shaw, the tailor, has heard this before. He considers whether to explain that the heather she travelled three hours to admire exists because of the grouse moor she despises. The gamekeepers who manage the land, suppress the bracken, and keep the moorland in the condition that makes it worth visiting. The cake, in other words, was baked by the baker she came to castigate. What is worrying is that the government shares her confusion.
On March 18, Labour published its Land Use Framework. Half a million acres earmarked for solar panels. Nine percent of farmland committed to rewilding. And buried on page 45, a proposal to license game bird shooting, potentially restricting pheasant and partridge releases onto estates. The trail hunting ban came first. Licensing comes next. Each measure arrives with its own rationale. Together they form a programme.
Licensing does not prohibit. Bureaucracy does not ban. Smaller shoots simply cannot absorb compliance costs, fold quietly, and nobody in Whitehall answers for the consequence. A Natural England case near Helmsley shows the method. A longstanding partridge shoot was barred from releasing birds until after the season had already started. Shoot days cancelled. Revenue gone. Natural England's hands formally clean.
Helmsley bucks every trend in British retail. Four pubs in the town square. A Michelin-starred inn nearby. A tailor forty years in business in what a mentor once called a dying trade. Seventy-five percent of Shaw's revenue is shooting-related. The Pheasant hotel runs at sixty percent shooting occupancy through winter. The deli sells local cheese to Norwegian and German sportsmen. Shooting contributes £3.3 billion annually to the UK economy and supports nearly 147,000 jobs. Pull the shooting thread and the weave comes apart.
One Helmsley pub changed hands a few years ago. The new owners decided they wanted nothing to do with shoot trade. They lost heavily, then went back to the estates cap in hand. The market delivered the verdict that policy is not yet ready to impose openly. Licensing achieves the same result without anyone having to take responsibility.
The conservation argument collapses under scrutiny. Grouse moor owners have restored 217,000 acres of upland heath in the past 25 years. The almost-extinct curlew is four times more likely to fledge on a managed grouse moor than on unmanaged moorland. The landscape that Whitehall has identified as the problem is the reason the landscape exists in the form they claim to value.
When asked what economic trade-offs it had actually modelled, the government was vague. Officials said they recognised shooting's cultural importance and would work with industry toward a sustainable relationship. Starmer has been invited to visit Helmsley and see how the economy functions. He has not replied.
He should go. He should meet the gamekeeper loading double guns through winter to keep the household solvent. The beaters earning seventy pounds a day. The tailor measuring 24 keepers for tweed suits stitched with Essex lining and Yorkshire zips.
What rural Britain is being offered instead is a licensing regime that will first eliminate smaller shoots, then larger ones, then the hotels and tailors and pubs, until the moorland reverts to bracken and the towns that shooting sustained join the dying high streets that apparently only the countryside had managed to avoid.
The heather on the North York Moors, Jeremy Shaw at Carters Country Wear, and the market town of Helmsley. All three exist because of shooting. Labour's Land Use Framework puts all three at risk.

Michael "Lauren" Jeska Jeska terrorized the women's fell running scene in the UK for years, taking 3 consecutive English Fell running championship titles along with a Welsh (WFRA) title.
When officials questioned Jeska's eligibility, declaring his results void as he failed to comply with the rules, he took two knives to the UK Athletics office and proceeded to stab Ralph Knibbs, head of human resources, in the head and neck in an attack eyewitnesses describe "as though [he] were trying to skewer meat."
He also injured the two men who tried to intervene. Knibbs suffered a stroke in the attack and was subsequently disabled.
Jeska continues to serve his sentence for attempted murder. He still holds women's parkrun records and is being held in a women's prison.

This is sad but I think it is actually where I am now
I don't think the UK is a good place to live and most of that is because of the state
It lies, cheats and steals from us like a banana republic, and it does this at the behest of a political class who are deeply unserious, most of them are stupid and few of them even want to talk about our issues let alone deal with them
Our institutions are rotten through whilst at the same time the people in charge still bleat on about "world class" this or that to an ever increasingly incredulous public who look on and just think they are mad
I mean look at the state of the country. We live in a hovel. The roads are not cleaned or repaired - more and more shops are boarded up - rubbish strewn everywhere. I have travelled around much of the world and the UK looks like a developing country now - nothing is ever repaired. You report stuff and they put a cone next to it until it blows away or is run over.
The establishment loathes this country, hates us and hates our culture. It is why they see no problem with importing the third world to replace us. I mean who cares when for them the nation is just accidental lines on a map. It has no intrinsic value for them beyond a pseudo business. Woe betides anyone who raises concern about migration. No, you should just expect to get knifed, stolen from or raped. Your children, your life and your belongings are just plays things for a group of people who hate you.
They talk about the stuff that matters to them and most of that is stuff which will get them brownie points at dinner parties or the next job. I mean who cares about net zero versus jobs and being able to afford to live. Well, them - the clever people who would rather see this country slip into the ocean than repeal a not thought through piece of legislation. You know because of global leadership or some shite like that.
Kids being industrially raped - no need to investigate that
MPs being murdered - something about online hate
Kids being butchered by a second generation immigrations - knives from Amazon
Killings on the streets - not our problem
Ilegals crossing the channel – oh all too complicated
People dying in hospital corridors – wow change the subject
They do nothing useful.
I mean look what they are talking about in parliament this week - killing old people and female footballers on cards. Yes, cutting to the very heart of our many problems.
Oh, don't be hurtful to us or we will lock you up - yeah fuck off the lot of you. Someone just nail the place shut - it would be absolutely no loss to the British public right now. Parliament and the people who sit in it are a bad joke. I would suggest doing a Belgium and letting the civil service run the country, but they hate the place even more.
Our institutions are saturated with people who know nothing, can't think, don't care to think, think emoting is policy making and when confronted with evidence that runs counter to their worldview - you know reality - they shut down and look the other direction. They would rather change the subject even if it means people die or are tortured. That is the level of personal probity in that place.
I mean people who can vote against investigating the mass rape and torture of kids because it is politically unhelpful are clearly immoral and evil and no the Tories are no better as they helped to keep it buried for 14 years. They have no goodness in their hearts – these are not people I would want in my life let alone my house. I am not a great person, but I do my bit in my small way. I try not to lie, I don’t steal, I try and treat people with some basic level of respect even if I don’t like them but more than that I try and surround myself with good moral people. Very few of the people in parliament based on current performance would make that pretty limited grade.
It is embarrassing, shameful and it can't go on. This country looks a shit hole but like Dorian Gray's painting it simply reflects the moral heart of many of the people in charge and the entire establishments ethical grounding. We are rotting slowly but surely into the ground. Everything that is good and proper that my parents, grandparents and great grandparents built and fought for is slowly but surely going down the shitter to placate the gods of the political world. Those who have long since traded away humanity for a seat in parliament.
Just fuck off the lot of you – go away – I can’t wait for the revolution and more and more I wonder whether we will need it to be violent pour decourager les autres.
But they won't
They are all liars, cheats and deceivers
All trust is gone
Of course it won't stop the Labour party's tame stenographers in the press, on TV and on podcasts keep repeating the state line
I am sick of this country - it is not a good place to live now
It is not led by moral people and the political class in general are not ethical

I really hope other Western countries are observing the absolute flood of sanity sweeping over the United States in the last 3 days and realizing that it's possible in their countries too.

Just this ⬇️
Is it too much to ask that fairness and safety for women is prioritised over men’s feelings?
Never mind having women footballers on birthday cards, I’d just like a commitment that women’s football is for females only.
Perhaps you could campaign for that @helenemaguire. Women and girls deserve fair sport.

This is what controls the climate. How much heat gets to you depends on its distance, inclination, clouds and water vapour. CO2 makes almost ZERO difference to heat or cold. Anyone saying otherwise is being paid to do so, or was brainwashed by someone who was. I was on this planet when this man made climate idea was laughed at by the entire scientific establishment. I was also here when the money started coming in for people to say the opposite. I was a postgraduate university lecturer in cultural sustainability. I saw people being promoted for jumping on this bandwagon, and sceptics like me lost their job. Yet we were right, and they were wrong.

Seven questions:
1) Are British politicians importing an alien culture and an alien people in such numbers as to effectively render the young native British an ethnic minority in the near future?
2) Is the core ideology and culture of the millions of imported people antithetical to the core ideology and culture of modern Western democracies?
3) Have British politicians introduced legislation conferring an inferior status upon the native British and a superior status / protected class to the imported people and their alien culture?
4) If so, would not logic, the nature of man, and much chronicled history suggest this will inevitably lead to ever-increasing racial/cultural division and a highly probable physical clash of civilisations directly affecting our children and grandchildren?
5) If so, would it be fair to say our politicians are engaged in an ideological alliance with an imported foreign invasion and are thus guilty of treason in the specific legal definition?
6) If so, would it be fair to say British politicians are engaged in a genocidal war against their own citizens, according to the U.N. definition of genocide?
7) If all this is true, has such a perverse, abnormal and unnatural situation ever before existed in the known history of mankind?

Everything which is taking place now to undermine national confidence is because several generations ago British men and women actually bothered to get off their arses and go and civilise the world.
This self loathing must stop.

Today, a number of prominent journalists criticised my suggestion that the UK media class has failed to sufficiently cover the rape gangs scandal, which will go down as one of the biggest scandals in our history
So, I decided to take a closer look at the data.
Trust me, you'll want to read until the end
First, the boring bit. How did I do it?
I used something called Lexis, a database researchers use to search content across UK newspapers
Every good researcher out there knows how to use it so they can duplicate my work and check
One of my critics today said my use of "grooming gangs" in my initial numbers was misleading because much of the coverage in UK newspapers uses "grooming gang" not "gangS".
OK then, let's use that
And let's just look at articles that are specifically about this scandal and don't just mention it in passing
What did I find?
Let's look at the years 2011-2025 because before that, even though the rape gangs scandal goes back decades, there was NOTHING in UK media.
Nothing.
They didn't touch it AT ALL --despite widespread rumours pushed by groups like the BNP and EDL
2011 is a crucial year because it's when renegade and HERO Andrew Norfolk, at The Times, started to write the first early pieces, despite abuse & harassment
First, let's look at ALL UK newspapers
In 2011-2025 there were 4,659 articles specifically focused on the "grooming gang" phenomenon
Wow
Sounds a lot right?
Remember the number.
"Grooming gang" = 4,659
But now let's compare that with how much coverage the media class gave to other scandals and terms
"white privilege" = 6,146
"anti-Muslim" = 17,152
"post office" and "horizon" =20,274
"extreme right" = 21,252
"Islamophobia" = 23,461
"Greta Thunberg" = 22,717
"expenses scandal" =25,585
"Stephen Lawrence" = 29,808
"anti-racism" = 34,484
"Windrush" = 35,515
"George Floyd" = 38,824
"Black Lives Matter" = 59,338
"Grenfell" = 71,422
"Britain" and "racism" = 75,693
"Net Zero" = 141,367
"far right" = 231,540
"racism" = 382,069
I could go on.
I think the numbers speak for themselves.
Relative to other scandals and amid a strong liberal bias in parts of the media class, the mass rape of young, working-class white girls & women just wasn't a priority
Yes, there were newspapers that broke the story and pushed it, like the Times in 2011
But even there, the 440 articles built around "grooming gang" between 2011-2025 is dwarfed by, say, the 2,868 on "Islamophobia", the 3,202 on Stephen Lawrence, the 2,603 on George Floyd, or the 5,524 on BLM
My point is not to bash individual newspapers but to say that relative to other race-related stories and debates, the rape gangs scandal --ARGUABLY THE BIGGEST SCANDAL IN OUR HISTORY-- has received very little coverage from the media class
I'd give you the numbers for liberal progressive papers like The Guardian/Observer but frankly they're absurd
Oh ok then
Between 2011 and 2025 the Guardian had 113 articles on the grooming gang phenomenon compared to 3,325 for "Islamophobia"
What about the BBC?
We can look at BBC News 24 and BBC Radio 4
There were 357 specific mentions of the "grooming gang" scandal in BBC News/Radio 4 transcripts
Meanwhile, there were 7,537 for "George Floyd", 3,219 for "Stephen Lawrence", 7,416 for "Black Lives Matter", and 2,259 for "Islamophobia"
You get the picture. I won't keep going
But what I will say is this.
These girls were never a priority in Media Land
Relative to other scandals they were at first ignored and then downplayed
Too many of the middle-class, Oxbridge-educated, socially liberal if not radically woke progressive elites who control the parameters of what they think is our national "debate" routinely steer clear of scandals and issues that violate tightly-controlled taboos around immigration, multiculturalism, "diversity" in all its forms, and which are backed up with alarmist narratives about the "far right" and "Islamophobia" to warn others off from asking difficult questions or challenging the elite consensus in Westminster and London
This HAS to change
As I wrote in my Substack this morning, @elonmusk has done Britain a favour by forcing us to reckon with a truly NATIONAL scandal that has for too long been ignored and pushed to the side by political, media, and cultural elites in wider society
This past week, we have been pushed into a new era in which millions of people up and down this country are either learning about the rape gangs crisis for the first time or hearing shocking new details they did not know before and can scarcely believe
And millions of people are now asking some enormous questions. How did our country let this happen to our children? Why was it overlooked? Why did so many people stay silent? Is it still happening today? What can we do to stop it? Who is pursuing the truth in media? Who is naming and shaming? And why does the UK media class fall over itself when a single American man dies in Minneapolis while seemingly not giving a shit about the thousands of CHILDREN who have been abused, raped and harassed here in Britain?
The people have tuned into this scandal, in other words. They have taken notice and they are watching. The only question now is whether the media class has bothered to notice and will actually get on top of this scandal and push it to front of the agenda or continue to ask ridiculous questions like it did for much of today, deflecting from its glaring failures to instead obsess about Elon Musk.
Find the truth and tell us the truth.
That's your job.
