Democrats release alleged Donald Trump letter to Jeffrey Epstein
The letter, the existence of which was reported by the Wall Street Journal in July, appears to have been signed by Trump, but he has denied doing so and has said it does not exist.

To confirm that the last thing you will hear in the event of a nuclear strike is a loud howl on your mobile here is a forthcoming test.
*On Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm, the government will carry out a national test of the Emergency Alerts system. This means most mobile phones and tablets across the UK will receive a test message, accompanied by a loud siren-like sound and vibration that will last for about 10 seconds.* -
Britain took in around 250,000 Belgian refugees during World War I after the German invasion of Belgium, making it the largest refugee influx in British history at the time. These refugees, largely civilians, were housed and supported by local committees and organisations across Britain and included skilled workers who helped fill labour shortages, particularly in munitions factories.
We didn’t have Farage and Tommy Ten names
then but if we had they’d probably be avoiding joining the army and really fighting for the country -

Who remembers motor fuel rationing?
My dad was one of those people that kept everything just in case. Today I started looking his old paperwork because it's about time most of it was thrown. I will keep interesting stuff.
I found his old car and motorbike fuel ration books from the 1950's and 1960's, and fuel coupons issued during the 1973 Suez Crisis.
I did google search and found them on ebay

Another view of Immigration/Migrants.
Britain is facing a demographic crisis that cannot be wished away. Birth rates have fallen to their lowest levels on record, with women in England and Wales now having on average just 1.41 children. In Scotland the figure is even lower at 1.25. To maintain a stable population, the so-called “replacement rate” is 2.1. Britain has been below that threshold for more than fifty years.
The only reason our population is not in steep decline is immigration. More women living here, including those born abroad, means more children are being born, offsetting the historic fall in fertility among British-born mothers. Last year, more than a third of all babies born in England and Wales had mothers who were born outside the UK. In Luton, the town with the highest fertility rate in the country, that figure is seven in ten. Without immigration, Britain’s population would already be shrinking.
This is not just a question of numbers, it is about the future of our economy and society. Fewer young people means fewer workers to support an ageing population. Pensioners live longer, draw more from the state, and rely heavily on the NHS, yet there are fewer people of working age to pay the taxes that sustain them. Demographic experts warn that the burden on today’s workforce will only increase unless we replenish the population with new generations.
Other countries are showing what happens when immigration is embraced rather than feared. Spain’s recent economic success is being driven in large part by a progressive immigration policy. Migrants there have helped to reverse demographic decline, filled labour shortages, and powered GDP growth. According to the Bank of Spain, immigration contributed to around a quarter of the growth in GDP per capita between 2022 and 2024. Since 2019, migrants have filled about 70 percent of new jobs created. They are working in key sectors like tourism, construction and care, boosting demand, creating employment, and funding welfare systems. Combined with investments in green energy and labour market reforms, immigration has turned Spain from a transit country into one of Europe’s economic success stories. It is a model Britain would do well to study.
That is where immigration matters most. Refugees and migrants who come to Britain are often young, fit and ready to work. Many go on to become doctors, nurses and care workers, filling shortages in vital services like the NHS. Others contribute to industries facing a serious lack of workers, from hospitality and construction to logistics and agriculture. Their children grow up as part of our communities, and they are the ones who will keep our economy alive as the native birth rate continues to fall.
The truth is that immigration is not a burden, it is a necessity. It sustains our population, strengthens our workforce, and ensures that Britain does not age into decline. Those who attack refugees and migrants as a threat to this country have it backwards. Without them, Britain will not have the workers, the carers or the taxpayers needed to look after its own people.
Immigration is not just about compassion, though that is reason enough. It is about securing Britain’s future. It is about recognising that this country has always been renewed by those who arrive here seeking a better life. To turn our backs on that now would not only betray our values, it would undermine the very foundations of our economy. Britain needs immigration, and it needs refugees, because they are part of the solution to the challenges we face today. -
The appalling Truth about what Farage is doing in the US (Edited)
This eleven minute speech starts and ends discussing the truth about Farage, how he supports Putin and Trump and wants follow in their footsteps in the UK.
It is frightening how low he will go in destroying our country, bringing it to its knees and destroying freedoms in the same way Trump has done
It may be long but it’s well worth knowing the truth about what he has in store for our futures. Did you know he not only admires Putin but has been on Russian TV eleven times
https://youtu.be/reQaq3ArAak?si=QstNhYvzNkOWmGwW
You will note that he would not face the man in the video, walking out of a meeting with him. As he always does over here. -
For those on other threads extolling life on the village green, with Morris dancing and the culture of English times before immigration...
"In England in the year 1800, the average male life expectancy at birth was around 35 to 40 years, according to studies of the period.
This average was impacted by high infant mortality, but a considerable number of people survived into their 60s and beyond.
A large number died in infancy or childhood, significantly lowering the average life expectancy at birth.
Life expectancy varied greatly depending on a person's social class and where they lived.
The early 19th century was also a time of outbreaks of diseases like smallpox, which further impacted mortality rates.
Syphylis was common.
Sanitation was primitive."
Then there was the potato famine, that killed millions throughout Europe...

This is clearly a case of the police arresting someone on behalf of muslims who might be offended. Even though there are no muslims visible. I think most muslims, and Jews, when hearing someone say "we love bacon" would just smile, say "ok, good for you" and get on with their day. Definitely would'nt be offended.

Not being high finance-savvy, I thought one could give £3,000 pa to each person, just read that's the total between all. It has to come from earned income and not from savings - though I don't know how they could know the difference? Maybe I am misreading but worth a read if anyone is as unaware as I am.
