a) Every year, at midsummer, there are organised Fetes de Musique throughout France where thousands of youngsters gather to listen to live groups sing and/or play. For many years all was calm and the youngsters’ enjoyed themselves….
b) Marseille, Heroin Capital of Europe, turns Into a War Zone. The French city is witnessing a clan war fueled by immigration and drug trafficking.
c) When I read of a serious incedent (newly married wife and another shot dead, others injured) I had two thoughts – 1mm1grants and drug running. My hunch proved right. The information is rather sketchy at the moment, but…
d) Shooting at an Orthodox church in Syria. Two gunmen opened fire during Mass at the Saint Elijah Orthodox Church in eastern Damascus, then one of them detonated his explosive belt.
9. Comey and Clinton
The Justice Department would like former FBI Director James Comey to explain why he authorized a $16 million payment to himself in 2016. The payment didn’t go through official channels and doesn’t appear on any FBI expense reports. “We believe he took the money for dropping the Clinton Email case ,thinking she’d cover it for him when she won the White House” Follow

8. This is highly biased
… and contains a link you might or might not care for. I neither endorse nor not endorse … it’s just there.
“Nobody called. The shipping company wanted to fill the cabins, advertised a heavy discount in the local paper & the boat turned up with hundreds of unskilled Jamaicans looking for freebies. Btw you’ll never guess who owned the paper & the shipping line!”
7. The poisoned air
6. The Windrush bollox in parlmt
1/ This is prime Windrush Creationism. The level of propaganda they have managed to fit into a single minute is quite remarkable. In this thread, I will break it down, line by line.
2/ “The first nurses” Seven of the passengers listed nursing as their occupation. Assuming all seven went on to work for the NHS in its first years, they would represent just 0.01% of the nursing workforce. Even 17 years later, only 2% of NHS nurses were from the Jamaica.
3/ “The veterans who returned after fighting for freedom after WWII” While noble, only 0.25% of British WWII veterans were from the Caribbean, and very few made it to the frontline. To put it in context, there were almost 10 times more Polish soldiers serving with the British Armed Forces in WWII.
4/ “The construction workers who literally helped build back Britain after the war.” Even today, only 6% of construction workers are ethnic minorities. That encompasses all non-White groups, not just the Caribbeans. To put this in context, we have more disabled people working in construction than Black people in 2025.
5/ “It was the rebuilding of our country” This [there is footage at the account on X] is London one year after WWII and three years before the Windrush arrived. It was already rebuilt.
6/ “You asked, we came” In reality, the Windrush were unwanted economic migrants. Clement Attlee, the Labour leader and PM at the time, wanted to divert the Windrush to East Africa.
7/ This is a parliament debate about Jamaicans from 1948 – the majority of whom were unemployed. If Britain was begging for Jamaican migrants to fill vacancies, why were so many unemployed?
8/ The British government subsidised cheap passage for over a million Britons to move to Australia (as well as NZ/Rhodesia) at the same they were supposedly begging for Barbadians and Jamaicans to come ‘build Britain’.
9/ “Shaping what became Britain” Let’s see how the Windrush has shaped Britain: Black and Mixed Caribbean populations have the second and fourth highest arrest rates respectively, only beaten by the ‘Black Other’ ethnic group.
10/ London is 13% Black but they commit: •61% of knife homicides •48% of the murderers •59% of robberies •67% of gun crimes •54% of street crimes •32% of sex offenses
11/ In the 80s, Black Londoners were 26 times more likely to commit gang-rape than White Londoners.
12/ London accounts for nearly half of the social housing budget Black Caribbeans receive the highest ratio of social housing subsidy relative to their population size, taking up over 10% of the budget. Higher than any other ethnic group.
13/ When looking at state benefits, the Black population receives the most in: • Child benefits • Housing benefits • Income support • Child tax Credit.
14/ When it comes to education, the Black Caribbean population are the second least likely to receive at least three As and A-level, with only Roma Gypsies performing worse.
15/ The Windrush Generation and subsequent Black migrant populations can claim to have contributed to sports and music in modern Britain, however it is post-hoc revisionism to claim they have built anything. It is Yookay’s foundational myth, aimed at persuading the native population that they should be grateful for a government policy which has been objectively terrible for them.
