I can't.
This is gross. I don't believe anyone in his right mind would advocate for that. Follow the money, I'm certain it's a democrat RINO.
CNN wil use to blanket all republicans as callous for that.

It baffles me too to be honest.

I've lived in the UK for decades and if you told me years ago that we could have thousands of white people old and young attacking mosques, burning hotels housing immigrants and attacking black people in the streets like happened in August last year during the Anti immigrant riots, I would have said this was not possible but alas it happened and it has made me rethink my safety and continued stay in the UK.

Even my Oyinbo neighbour who is married to an African woman seems happy with the anti immigrant riots based on some of his utterances around that time. I kukuma have now learnt to no longer see him as an open minded friend and I only interact with him only if necessary.

And it's going to get worse in the UK as the televised anti immigrant riots last year has let the racist genie out of the closet and Brits are now proud to wear the badge of honor of being called racist in public 'cos for the past 2 years the UK populace have been egged on by the racist rhetoric of the last conservative government and currently that of the crafty Kemi Badenoch who will sell her grandmother to become Prime Minister and Nigel Farage (Trump and Elon Musk's friend) of the racist Reform party who will probably become the next UK Prime Minister going by how toxic the racism in UK society and politics has become.

But what do you hear from black people and immigrants in the UK huh Deafening silence.
Mosques preach peace?

He was blasting those A list femmi fatales. They may look like they are a cut above the rest of humanity , but if you are wealthy they will let you do anything, including grabbing them by the pussy.
He never said he does that .

Mostly people listening live to his speech were shocked, going by response.
I'm not sure what he expected.
I can't imagine a serious person lecturing European leaders with a speech full of lies and distortions about Europe. (newspapers have written about most of the claims being false).
The speech was for a more stupid US Domestic Audience.

lol una no Sabi UK.

There are 650 seats in UK.

107 are already off the table for Reform (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) who always vote for their National Independence parties or Labour.

73 are off the table in London

Add Liverpool (die hard Labour), Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Leicester, Derby, Nottingham and half the seats are gone. As in no chance of picking up even 20% of the vote in any parliamentary seat in these Cities.

We've not come to many other towns yet

Then of the half the seats that's left we have die hard Labour and die hard Conservative towns. Even if they take Conservative votes there, they are going nowhere.

Reform is dead on arrival. If they take more than 10 seats at the next election, it's been a great election. With Kemi leading the Conservatives, they could possibly do better and go up to 15. 30 is a number I will put my house on.
How about the share of votes ? Say 17 million people vote. What percentage share will likely go to reform. 1,2,5 or 10% ?
UK has a funny system.

Lol @ this post and you not having any real understanding what "locker room" talk is.
Again, me nor any guy in my crew (and I have some ex-Demons in my crew) would ever talk like that.
There is a difference between talking about women and talking about how you rape women.
You seem not to know the difference.
You're defending rape and a rapist.

You have a black daughter, who is by your story and immigrant in Europe.
You sit here daily, spreading black hate, demonizing immigrants and supporting rape.
Just trying to do you a public service by reminding you of your responsibilities as you've clearly forgotten.

Don’t project your weirdness onto me pls.

I’ve found that people who do stupid stuff like to assume that other do it too to make them feel better.

Me and my friend group don’t fantasize about sexually harassing people.

Nor do we joke about how we would date our kids if they weren’t our kids. And that’s the stuff that gets people written off in our books.

ibime is trying to escape reality. the Torys were voted out because it was a referendum against their party. their failure on immigration and other things. Now that Labour combines all those failures with their failures producing the worst PM in the country, Voters can only vote for Reform or default to the Conservative party.

Reform and Conservative parties could ally to kick Labour out.

So allow ibime to live in lala land

This post reads like a special needs child wrote it.

And fyi, if your black child uses an avatar of a white girl, that she created, to a good parent that would be a sign she may need more love, self validation and to be affirmed.
You... probably clapped.

Here's a good thread that may help you.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Parenting/comments/11v09m6/5yearold_black_son_says_he_wants_his_skin_to_be/

Hi. I am an African American mother living in a predominantly white neighborhood in the suburbs of Illinois. My 5-year-old just started Kindergarten this year. Yesterday he came home and told me that he "wishes his skin was white". It really broke my heart. I asked him why. He told me that "white skin is better". I asked him why would he think that and he said that everybody at his school is white and he wants white skin like his friends. I told him that his skin was beautiful and that he has brown skin like his family. I needed a minute to gather my thoughts so I let him leave the room after speaking about it shortly. I brought it back up to him the next day. I told him how much I loved his skin. How beautiful he was. I told him that just because he's different at school, does not mean he's bad. After our conversation, I had him repeat 4 key points of our conversation, which he did. I am still very bothered by this though. I worked hard to get my family out of the hood, due to how violent and dangerous it is (we've lost several family members due to the gun violence in Chicago) but I don't want my kids to grow up not loving themselves because of the neighborhood we live in and the schools they go to. I don't know what to do or how to help him. Please help

Yes women should have access to abortion so that when pedos who joke about sexual harassment go and impregnate teenagers, the teenagers have the power to get their lives back.

Abortion biggest backers you agree are paedos,rapists, pimps and human traffickers. They are the ones who want abortion enshrined, free and as widely available as coca cola.
Why not arrest Epstein friends who abused kids dressed up in school uniforms ,12 year olds for a start? It's because of your type, those who only want to see Trump dragged into the mud.Your type that does not want Kash Patel who wants that list public on his day one.
They won't release Epstein list because it's national security?

A framed copy of the New York Post's cover featuring President Donald Trump's mug shot has been hung on a wall just outside the Oval Office, photos show.

The mug shot, taken when he was booked into the Fulton County Jail in Georgia in 2023, can be seen in a hallway in photos taken when Trump met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday.


Anyone who was involved in fixing Trump for good better be warned. That mugshot is a warning that Trump won't forgive or forget that his attempt to get justice in Georgia got to that point
An Obama judge will soon order that portrait removed

Just heard parts of JD Vance's speech in Munich today. He is basically arguing that unchecked migration is a bad thing because non-Europeans are inherently dangerous.
It's shockingly racist.
And shocked that any black person would celebrate or be supportive of that.
Its mind boggling that a black man or woman who is at the BOTTOM of the pecking order in EVERYTHING worldwide can be supportive of such racism when last year or so you had a "few" white anti deportation activists in the UK lying down in protest in front of the coach the Government wanted to use in transporting immigrants from their asylum hotel in Peckham to the Bibby Stockholm Barge floating prison that had a poisonous drinking water supply.

I don’t know about the UK but that’s what people thought about Trump too in his first time. “Surely that many people won’t vote for the well known New York City con man over a more qualified candidate just because the other candidate is a woman?” And sure the did. Even while he lost the popular vote then, it was astonishing to see how many people couldn’t get past we don’t want a woman president mindset.

We often underestimate how people’s biases can erode their reason. I’ve heard it being called the normalcy bias. As a person you don’t want to cause yourself distress by thinking that there could possibly be that many racist or prejudiced people around you. So you dismiss it by saying surely that can’t happen. And then it happens and leaves you confused as to why such a huge number of people still harbor presumably archaic biases even to the point where they’ll vote against themselves to hold up those biases.

I saw the videos of the attacks on black people in the UK. Would I be surprised if some of the same black people who possibly feared for their lives at that time still vote for the party behind the ideology that caused the attacks? No I wouldn’t be.
Well said.

83% of the Republican proposed tax cuts goes to the top 0.1 percent of the population.

Y’all were played (like we said you would be) when he told you there would be no tax on tips, no tax on social security and no tax on overtime.

Drank the coolaid like mugus they are. They really thought others would suffer and they wouldn’t.

From cuts to health and agriculture funding to fears of new tariffs negatively impacting local industries and consumers, Republican lawmakers are starting to push back against certain aspects of Trump's plans. And they are doing so carefully, acknowledging that voters want to shake up business-as-usual in the nation’s capital — and wanting to avoid Trump’s ire.

Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., recently pushed back on the administration’s funding reductions under the National Institutes of Health. The University of Alabama at Birmingham is a major recipient of that money, which has helped make it the state’s largest employer.

Britt told AL.com that “a smart, targeted approach is needed in order to not hinder life-saving, groundbreaking research at high-achieving institutions like those in Alabama.”

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said the cap on indirect costs under NIH grants was “poorly conceived” and would impose “arbitrary cuts in funding for vital research at our Maine institutions.”

Among the top 20 states that take more money from the federal government than they sent in tax payments, 13 are solidly red states that voted for Trump in the last three elections, according to an analysis by the Rockefeller Institute of Government of the fiscal 2024 budget. Meanwhile, the top five states (and nine of the top 10) that send more money to the Treasury Department than they receive voted for Democrats in the last three presidential elections.

Trump’s tariffs have also ruffled feathers among some of his otherwise solid allies on Capitol Hill. That includes Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa — the Senate president pro tempore and chair of the Judiciary Committee — who protested when Trump threatened to levy tariffs on imports from Canada.

Grassley,” noted the high cost of fertilizer and asked for an exemption that protects Iowa farmers.

Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., the vice chair of the Appropriations Committee that oversees government funding, said Trump should go about his attempts to slash or freeze money in a different way: by winning congressional approval first.

“Running farmers out of business, derailing infrastructure projects, cutting cancer research and killing good-paying clean energy jobs isn’t just unpopular, it’s devastating for working people everywhere — and it is time Trump reverses his illegal funding freeze and DOGE cuts in their entirety,” Murray told NBC News. “Trump’s policies are hurting communities and families in red states and blue states. If Trump and Elon want to cut funding for cancer research and infrastructure projects, they need to send us a proposal and try and win the votes in Congress to do it.

Starmer hasn't done much wrong except not supporting your Tommy Robinson race riots.
Give it to Starmer for being up to the task of instructung the judges to work round the clock to try the racist UK protesters last year resulting in lengthy jail sentences for the racist protesters with some of them being as old as 80 years old and some as young as 13.

If not that Starmer (a former Director of Public Prosecution) ensured that over at least 3 months, newspapers were filled daily with lengthy jail sentences handed down by the courts to the racist yobs only God knows how unsafe UK immigrants would be now especially since the Nazi saluting Elon Musk was trying to provoke the UK whites to start a race war against immigrants in the UK by saying on his racist misinformation machine (twitter) that he predicts a race war in the UK.

Although Starmer and the Labour party in the past 2 weeks have been trying to copy the anti immigrant rhetoric of Kemi Badenoch by abruptly changing immigration rules to target refugees.

A few days ago, Starmers ruling Labour party not wanting to be left out of the immigrant bashing suddenly changed the rules such that a lot of refugees who have patiently waited for the 10 year period before being allowed to apply for UK citizenship will now no longer be entitled to UK citizenship FOREVER because they entered the UK via a dangerous route - e.g by boat or by hiding in lorries. A lot of these refugees were already assessed 10 years ago and were deemed to be genuinely fleeing for their lives from dangerous countries like Afghanistan or fleeing war in Sudan.

When I see black people in the UK turn a blind eye to racist anti immigrant rhetoric because they have UK papers themselves, I shake my head for them because they forget that an injury to one is an injury to all and the racist chav who wants to attack black people cares less if a black person was born in the UK 50 years ago and in his racist uneducated mind, he sees us ALL as illegal immigrants who should ALL be packed like sardines into the Bibby Stockholm Barge floating prison for detaining illegal immigrants before shipping us ALL back to Africa.

I really pity Black people who live in areas of the UK with very low immigrant population because if when the next UK race riots start, they will not be as safe as black people living in London where you have strength in numbers on the side of black people.

Apart from the 24 hour round the clock night bus in London and the fact that I can decide that I want to go to buy cooked pounded yam any time of the day or night in London, I like the safety and comfort of seeing enough black faces in London on a daily basis.
