Imagine inviting someone to a dinner party at your home who doesn&#8217;t know how to eat with cutlery, clean up after themselves, speak English, properly respect the hosts, or refrain from attacking your children, wife, or dog.
That would be stupid.
But ironically, that is exactly what the United Kingdom did, just on a much grander and more significant scale.
After allowing hundreds of thousands of migrants to flood their borders and nest within the walls of the U.K., fundamentally changing the fabric of their nation, sending sexual assault numbers skyrocketing, and leaving housing, policing, and legal systems groaning under the weight of it, the government&#8217;s fix is not tighter borders, stricter asylum vetting, or, say, enforcing the laws already on the books. That would make too much sense. Instead, they&#8217;re resorting to &#8220;How to Act in Britain&#8221; <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/understanding-behaviours-and-expectations-in-the-uk-a-guide-for-asylum-seekers/understanding-behaviours-and-expectations-in-the-uk-a-guide-for-asylum-seekers-accessible">pamphlets</a> for their former third-world arrivals.
It&#8217;s embarrassing beyond recognition.
The instruction manuals for the new arrivals include basic messaging that most of Western civilization absorbs by kindergarten — but that those arriving from elsewhere have no concept of at all.
Take the &#8220;novel&#8221; concept of gender equality:
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1162439" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe1.jpg" alt="" width="344" height="512" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe1.jpg 344w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe1-202x300.jpg 202w" sizes=" (max-width: 344px) 100vw, 344px" /></div>
Yeah. Apparently, that&#8217;s something that now needs to be stated and plastered all over British creation, because though it&#8217;s something we take for granted every day, the Left seems to have forgotten that female rights didn&#8217;t magically appear overnight, nor do they exist in many other parts of the world. And importing those parts that largely view women as half-brained? Might not go over well with the ladies of Blighty.
It&#8217;s also funny to see that *snap* just like that, the Left remembered that differences between the two sexes do exist. Someone alert the WNBA.
There&#8217;s a section on domestic abuse, too.
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1162441" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe2.jpg" alt="" width="297" height="512" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe2.jpg 297w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe2-174x300.jpg 174w" sizes=" (max-width: 297px) 100vw, 297px" /></div>
My favorite entry: please don&#8217;t confiscate your wife&#8217;s passport. In America, we&#8217;re still arguing over whether a woman who strangled her three kids to death mid-breakdown counts as a &#8220;victim&#8221;; meanwhile, the U.K. is now having to remind 19% of its population that a passport is a travel document, not a leash.
It&#8217;s giving “Not Without My Daughter,” except this time the sequel is government-issued pamphlets explaining that, no, in the U.K., you cannot confiscate your wife&#8217;s passport whenever you feel like it.
Naturally, there&#8217;s a section on sex and consent. Foreign nationals make up roughly 11% of the English population but account for somewhere between 14% and 22% of sexual-offense convictions, including close to a quarter of convictions for sexual assault on women and over one-fifth of adult rape convictions, per 2024 figures.
Bang-up job there, Europe.
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1162443" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe3.jpg" alt="" width="269" height="512" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe3.jpg 269w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe3-158x300.jpg 158w" sizes=" (max-width: 269px) 100vw, 269px" /></div>
It might have helped to hand out the &#8220;please don&#8217;t sexually assault women&#8221; pamphlet before the Rape Gang Inquiry confirmed what everyone already knew: that as many as a quarter of a million young girls were systematically raped, trafficked, and abused over decades by organized networks of mostly Pakistani men, while police, councils, and social workers looked away, terrified of the word &#8220;racist.&#8221;
The government didn&#8217;t have too much to say about that, but hey: dial 999 if you need anything, ladies!
Finally, a public-decency primer for the newfound pommies:
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1162447" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe4.jpg" alt="" width="414" height="512" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe4.jpg 414w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/08/chloe4-243x300.jpg 243w" sizes=" (max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px" /></div>
No unsolicited photos, no sexual comments, and no groping, please! Please! PLEASE! I&#8217;m honestly surprised there wasn&#8217;t a bonus module on saying &#8220;thank you&#8221; or a footnote clarifying that beheading people is generally frowned upon in polite society.
It&#8217;s easy to mock because it&#8217;s so incredibly insane; the nation that once exported liberty, rule of law, and women&#8217;s rights to half the globe is now reduced to begging its own dinner guests not to assault the hosts. But the insanity of it all is quite sad.
Between 2021 and 2024, as hundreds of thousands crossed the Channel to file asylum claims, sexual-offense convictions among foreign nationals rose 62%. Afghan nationals showed markedly elevated rates. Foreign nationals remain wildly overrepresented in England&#8217;s sex-offender population relative to their share of the general population.
The victims in all of this were largely young English women. You weren&#8217;t allowed to notice, lest you get labeled a bigoted Islamophobe. You also weren&#8217;t allowed to notice that the year Muhammad became the #1 boy name in England and Wales (and stayed there), thousands of those same young, white, British girls were still being treated as fair game by organized grooming networks. Or notice that old cities and towns once full of smiling faces and bright-eyed children were now draped in flags, burqas, and speakers sounding the call to prayer, lest you be called a bigot.
But now that everyone&#8217;s seeing it and can’t unsee it, the government is making a pathetic attempt at damage mitigation with &#8220;How to be an Englishman,&#8221; for dummies who couldn’t care less about how to be an Englishman.
It boils down to this: those illegally entering these established nations do not want to be like the English, or the Americans, or the Western man more broadly. They want to import their own ways, their own hierarchy of the sexes, their own rules about whose word carries force and whose body is available, and their own contempt for the soft, sentimental rules that Judeo-Christian civilization spent centuries building.
The Bible and the moral tradition that grew from it teach that every person, man or woman, bears the image of God, that the strong are commanded to protect the weak, that marriage is a covenant of mutual dignity, and that the stranger is still bound by the same moral law as the host. That is why the West abolished slavery, raised the status of women, and treated rape as a crime against the person rather than a property dispute. Large parts of the Islamic world, shaped by different scriptures and centuries of different practices, never underwent that transformation. In too many of the countries these arrivals come from, a woman&#8217;s testimony is worth half a man&#8217;s, her freedom of movement still depends on a male guardian, and &#8220;honor&#8221; can justify violence that Western courts call murder. The Home Office pamphlet is not inventing a problem; it is admitting, in the blandest bureaucratic prose possible, that the guests arrived with a different operating system.
So the dinner party continues. 
The hosts keep printing etiquette cards while the furniture is rearranged, the silverware disappears, and the children are no longer safe in their own home. A serious country would have locked the door. Instead, it keeps setting extra places and hoping the next pamphlet will finally do the trick.

Demonstrations Held Outside Migrant Accommodations Across The UK

Please Don’t Assault The Hosts: Britain’s Etiquette Guide For Its Uninvited Guests

DW Opinion

Immigration

U.K.

On Wednesday, Britain’s Home Office (our interior ministry) published a handy nine-page guide for asylum seekers called “Understanding behaviors and expectations in the UK.” It explained to these recent arrivals some of the nuances and faux pas of British life they might not have known prior to breaking into the country.
This advice explained, for example, that rape is a crime, that sex with children is a crime, and that new arrivals should not follow women down the street whistling or making “kissing sounds.”
Somewhere in London, a civil servant was paid to type the sentence “never try to have sex with someone who is asleep, drunk, or unable to consent clearly.”
A companion poster on the age of consent illustrates the rule with a mock-up British passport belonging to: “Janine Cooper” of Manchester, printed date of birth 17 April 2010. This fictional character turned 16 in the spring. So the British Government is essentially advertising that a schoolgirl four months past her 16th birthday is fair game for being propositioned.
The booklet does mention consequences. “Rape is a serious crime in the UK,” it warns. “You could go to prison, lose your support and accommodation, and it will affect your asylum claim.”
But then again, it may not.
It has just been reported that a Jamaican man, jailed in Britain for nine years for rape, has successfully appealed against his deportation. As a teenager he had been in Jamaica’s witness protection program, his mother a police informant whose evidence convicted a gang leader of murder.
But the British tribunal accepted that his criminal record is now so extensive that Jamaica would probably refuse to readmit him to protection, that his life would be at risk, and that deporting him would therefore breach Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). He stays. His criminal record now functions as a green card.
The ECHR is a post-war treaty interpreted by a court in Strasbourg, France, whose rulings Britain’s own domestic judges must apply at home. Article 3, a prohibition on torture, has been stretched by decades of case law into a rule that nobody may be sent anywhere unpleasant, a category that expands with every judgment. This is a totally separate structure from the European Union, so Brexit does not protect us from foreign judges whose rulings keep foreign rapists safe and sound in England.
In that case, perhaps we do need the anti-rape leaflets after all. They might have been useful reading for Bruke Desalagne, 33, an Eritrean who hid in a truck to enter Britain illegally. He claimed asylum and, in 2022, received “Indefinite Leave to Remain,” our version of a green card.
This month a jury convicted him of raping a male pensioner in his 60s outside a church in London. The attack lasted 20 minutes while a double-decker bus rolled past on CCTV. His sentence was obviously delivered via a translator.
And since I began writing this piece this morning, almost unbelievably, two more rapes by illegal migrants have been reported. This morning: a manhunt in Bournemouth, on England’s south coast, after a woman in her 40s reported being raped in a nature reserve near the beach. And this afternoon: two Afghan migrants are in court, accused of raping and assaulting a 14-year-old girl on a train from Kent into London.
You might think that such an acute crisis of illegal immigration would require more than pamphlets and posters. But the new prime minister, Andy Burnham, in one of his first statements since taking office, has said that every community has to take its “fair share” of these third-world barbarians, not just the poorer areas.
He is in effect going to punish the areas of the U.K. that represent the green and pleasant land for which we are known (that is, the areas that don’t vote for the socialist Labour Party) by billeting rapey third-worlders in hotels and houses.
And sadly, there is not yet the evidence that the pamphlets are working.
In undercover footage filmed inside the migrant camps on the French shore, one man bound for Britain puts it more succinctly than any government document: “I’m only interested to f*ck. I need it.”
What Britain needs, however, is to leave the ECHR, the foreign organization that puts the rights of rapists above those of victims and legally hampers our ability to deport our way out of the crisis. Imagine if, above the U.S. Supreme Court, there was a body of Mexican, Canadian, Honduran, Brazilian, and Cuban judges who could overrule the Constitution, all to benefit foreign rapists.
The situation is as absurd as it is tragic. But the tragedy is set to continue until we vote the Left out of power.

The Trump administration does not plan to intervene to stop the extradition of controversial influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate to the United Kingdom, despite the brothers&#8217; legal team urging Secretary of State Marco Rubio to step in.
A senior administration official told <a href="https://www.axios.com/2026/07/22/trump-rubio-tate-brothers-extradition">Axios</a> on Wednesday that the United States will not block the proceedings as the brothers fight extradition in federal court. &#8220;The U.S. has an extradition treaty with the U.K. and the administration intends to honor it in this case,&#8221; the official said.
The State Department likewise indicated it has no plans to intervene. A senior department official said Rubio has not spoken with the Tate brothers or their attorneys and that the department &#8220;has no plans to act on this matter at this time.&#8221;
Andrew and Tristan Tate were <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/andrew-and-tristan-tate-arrested-in-florida-on-rape-child-pornography-charges?author=Tim+Rice&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Andrew+And+Tristan+Tate+Arrested+In+Florida+On+Rape%2C+Child+Pornography+Charges">arrested</a> in Miami on Saturday, following a British extradition request tied to dozens of new criminal charges. The Crown Prosecution Service recently <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/tate-brothers-slapped-with-38-new-charges-in-expanding-sex-trafficking-case?author=Daily+Wire+News&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Tate+Brothers+Slapped+With+38+New+Charges+In+Expanding+Sex+Trafficking+Case">announced</a> 38 additional <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/read-the-graphic-allegations-unsealed-against-the-tate-brothers?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Read+The+Graphic+Allegations+Unsealed+Against+The+Tate+Brothers">charges</a> against the brothers, bringing the total number of charges they face in the United Kingdom to 59. The charges include allegations of rape, sex trafficking, assault, and offenses involving indecent images of children and extreme pornography.
The brothers have thus far denied all wrongdoing, and they appeared Monday before a federal judge in Miami to begin extradition proceedings. Their attorney, Joseph McBride, argued outside the courthouse that the prosecution is politically motivated and has vowed to challenge the request. &#8220;We are of course objecting to extradition because Andrew and Tristan are innocent,&#8221; McBride told <a href="https://apnews.com/article/andrew-tristan-tate-sex-trafficking-rape-uk-miami-3a3748e075f49b00f286a003f5103485">reporters</a>. &#8220;They&#8217;ve never done nothing wrong. They shouldn&#8217;t be extradited for crimes they did not commit.&#8221;
McBride has also argued that Rubio has the authority to deny the extradition request if he determines the brothers are being politically persecuted. Court filings acknowledge the secretary retains final authority over extradition decisions after judicial proceedings conclude, but administration officials have indicated there is no appetite to exercise that discretion in this case.
According to Axios, Rubio has privately expressed disdain for the brothers, with one source telling the outlet the secretary views them as &#8220;scum.&#8221; Another source familiar with President Donald Trump&#8217;s thinking said the president likewise wants nothing to do with the influencers despite their repeated public support for him. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/who-are-andrew-and-tristan-tate-everything-to-know-about-the-controversial-manosphere-brothers?author=Tim+Rice&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Who+Are+Andrew+And+Tristan+Tate%3F+Everything+To+Know+About+The+Controversial+%E2%80%98Manosphere%E2%80%99+Brothers.">The Tate brothers</a> have cultivated a massive online following through content promoting wealth, hyper-masculinity, and controversial views on women. They became prominent figures within the so-called &#8220;manosphere&#8221; and have repeatedly portrayed themselves as allies of Trump and the MAGA movement.
The extradition case is only the latest legal challenge facing the brothers. They remain under criminal investigation in Romania on separate human trafficking and rape allegations, which they have also denied.
A federal judge has scheduled the brothers&#8217; next hearing for July 27 as the extradition process continues. If the court determines the treaty requirements are met, the final decision on whether to surrender the brothers to British authorities will rest with Rubio, though administration officials have made clear they currently have no intention of blocking the request.

The Pakistani Muslim ringleader of a grooming gang targeting young girls in the United Kingdom has been released from prison eight years early. 
Shabir Ahmed was sentenced to 22 years in prison after his 2012 conviction for multiple rape and sexual offenses against girls as young as 13. Outgoing Prime Minister Keir Starmer requested that the British government look into deporting Ahmed immediately. 
Sara Rowbotham, a former National Health Service worker who helped uncover Ahmed’s crimes, said his release comes far too soon. 
“He was able to coerce, manipulate, and organize a highly manipulative group of men, and when in court he was volatile in court and towards the judge. There have been no indications that his views have changed,&#8221; Rowbotham said.
“The de-investment in probation services means that any monitoring of him and his behavior is likely to be really weak. Who is going to make sure he and maybe others do not seek revenge?” she added.
Ahmed <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/deporting-shabir-ahmed-test-whether-055853319.html?guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAIfT9OGeVAKKbHJR4Tc3o4i4IUGV_jwsWj6OEQ8pCpV9PPLtJmCmTCXD4cqtQ1RwqCeiHtlpYZfcCj9KieR8wHDmrBZ3JmV40xfO9AUcSvmmtUin-czVIwgJGFLU1WUxtldZKbbACfYT06DHFrn6jaTYSiXXdyPTtPvvGasDDKHL">reportedly</a> gave his victims alcohol and drugs and gang-raped them in rooms with other men primarily from Pakistani Muslim backgrounds. Most of the victims were white girls from working class families, The Telegraph reported.
Gerald Clifton, the judge overseeing Ahmed’s case, said his victims were treated “as though they were worthless and beyond any respect” because they were not Pakistani Muslims. Ahmed’s defense focused on labeling the children “prostitutes” and argued that Judge Clifton was “racist.” More than 60 men were convicted in relation to Ahmed’s grooming gang in Rochdale, England. 
The Home Office, the U.K. government’s lead department for policing, border security, and immigration, called Ahmed’s crimes “appalling” and said he would be supervised 24/7 while wearing an electronically monitored GPS tag. 
“His every movement will be tracked, and forced to wear an electronic tag. He will rightly be on the sex offenders register for life, ordered to stay away from his victims and banned from contacting any child or young person,” <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4gyx0vldrlo">said</a> a spokeswoman familiar with the matter. 
A letter sent to one of Ahmed’s victims revealed that the government does not currently have plans to deport Ahmed back to Pakistan due to the 1971 Immigration Act. The act says immigrants who arrived in Britain before 1973 and lived in the country for more than five years cannot be deported. 
A victim, who did not want to be publicly named, told the BBC that she was “scared for my safety and my kids’ safety.” She added, “The main ringleader is getting out of prison, who is well known in Rochdale, Oldham, and Middleton, so even if he&#8217;s not in that area, he still knows people and has a chance to talk to people from that area and that makes me unsafe.”

Keir Starmer finally did what millions of Britons had been waiting for, announcing his resignation as Labour Party leader on Monday after losing the confidence of his own MPs — capping a tenure marked by free speech crackdowns, grooming gang scandals, and a Palestinian statehood blunder that left allies fuming.

On Sunday, President Donald Trump blasted Starmer, writing on Truth Social, &#8220;Keir Starmer will resign as Prime Minister of The United Kingdom. He failed badly on two very important subjects — IMMIGRATION AND ENERGY (OPEN NORTH SEA OIL!). I wish him well!&#8221;
The writing had been on the wall for months. Labour&#8217;s vote share had cratered to a humiliating 17% in May&#8217;s local elections, with Nigel Farage&#8217;s Reform U.K. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lying-rat-keir-starmer-ripped-for-blocking-right-wing-activists-from-unite-the-kingdom-rally?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=%E2%80%98Lying+Rat%E2%80%99%3A+Keir+Starmer+Ripped+For+Blocking+Right-Wing+Activists+From+%E2%80%98Unite+The+Kingdom%E2%80%99+Rally">surging</a> past them at 26%. Starmer — already the least popular prime minister since records began — had lost his party, lost the public, and finally lost his nerve.
The human rights lawyer-turned-prime minister spent his final months under fire for his failure to address Britain&#8217;s broken National Health Service and immigration crisis and for banning foreign speakers from a conservative rally. In May, Starmer blocked seven international figures — including elected Polish MEP Dominik Tarczyński — from attending the &#8220;Unite the Kingdom&#8221; rally in London, with his Home Office declaring their presence &#8220;not conducive to the public good.&#8221;
Tarczyński wasn&#8217;t having it. &#8220;This is what communism looks like in the 21st century,&#8221; the Polish lawmaker <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/a-growing-fight-over-who-gets-to-enter-country-just-took-another-wild-turn?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=A+Growing+Fight+Over+Who+Gets+To+Enter+Country+Just+Took+Another+Wild+Turn">raged</a>, vowing to sue Starmer personally. &#8220;Once you lose the next election, communist, we&#8217;ll meet in court!&#8221;
The ban drew instant accusations of hypocrisy — Starmer <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lying-rat-keir-starmer-ripped-for-blocking-right-wing-activists-from-unite-the-kingdom-rally?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=%E2%80%98Lying+Rat%E2%80%99%3A+Keir+Starmer+Ripped+For+Blocking+Right-Wing+Activists+From+%E2%80%98Unite+The+Kingdom%E2%80%99+Rally">said nothing</a> about blocking participants from the pro-Palestine &#8220;Nakba Day&#8221; march happening the same day. Critics noted the selective enforcement was vintage Starmer, echoing his days as director of Public Prosecutions when, many argue, his office dragged its feet on prosecuting the Pakistani grooming gangs responsible for sexually abusing at least 1,400 children in Rotherham.
On St. George&#8217;s Day, he called patriots &#8220;plastic&#8221; — mocking Britons who dared to fly their own national flag. In 2020, he championed Black Lives Matter rioters as &#8220;people rightly demanding justice.&#8221; In August 2024, he called anti-immigration protesters — outraged after a man whose parents emigrated from Rwanda knifed three little girls to death in Southport — &#8220;far-Right thugs.&#8221;
Then, Starmer&#8217;s government surrendered British territory to Mauritius for $46 billion in what critics called a stunning act of national self-harm. Topping it all off, Starmer recognized Palestinian statehood with zero conditions — handing a diplomatic prize to a movement that celebrated the October 7 massacre — prompting Tory leader Kemi Badenoch to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/absolutely-disastrous-british-conservative-leader-rips-starmer-recognizing-palestinian-state?author=Hank+Berrien&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=%E2%80%98Absolutely+Disastrous%E2%80%99%3A+British+Conservative+Leader+Rips+Starmer+Recognizing+%E2%80%98Palestinian+State%E2%80%99">declare</a>, &#8220;We will all rue the day this decision was made.&#8221;
&#8220;They cannot fix the NHS, so they push assisted suicide,&#8221; Badenoch scorched. &#8220;He will spend the next four years delivering the hobby horses of the Labour left to stay in power and leave a HUGE mess for us to clean up.&#8221;
Now the scramble is on to replace him. Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham is the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/the-slow-awkward-race-to-replace-keir-starmer?author=Rhys+Laverty&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=The+Slow+Awkward+Race+To+Replace+Keir+Starmer">frontrunner</a> after he won an election to return to the House of Commons. Former Health Secretary Wes Streeting, Ed Miliband, and Deputy Prime Minister-turned-resigned Angela Rayner are also circling.
Starmer says he&#8217;ll stay on as caretaker prime minister until a new leader emerges before Parliament returns in September.

A brutal beheading attempt in Belfast that left a man with catastrophic injuries has sparked <a href="https://x.com/GBPolitcs/status/2064786615357071686?s=20">waves</a> of unrest across Northern Ireland, renewing a fierce debate over mass migration and public safety that is also resonating in the United States.

Law enforcement said the suspect, Hadi Alodid, a Sudanese national, pinned Stephen Ogilvie to the ground and repeatedly stabbed him in the face and neck during Monday&#8217;s attack. The<a href="https://x.com/TPointUK/status/2064116183012429857?s=20"> graphic caught-on-camera</a> incident captured a frantic scene.
“He’s trying to cut his head off!” a person can be heard shouting in the video. 
Ogilvie survived the attack but reportedly suffered devastating injuries, including the loss of an eye and deep wounds to his head and back. The incident quickly became the latest flashpoint in a years-long debate over mass migration and whether political leaders have ignored concerns raised by their own people.
Within hours of the attack, demonstrations erupted across Belfast and continued into Wednesday. Video from the scene showed vehicles set ablaze, roads blocked, and clashes between protesters and police as anger spread throughout parts of Northern Ireland.
At first glance, riots in Belfast following an attack by a migrant might seem like Europe&#8217;s problem. But the issues driving the unrest have become some of the most contentious political battles in the United States, where immigration, border security, crime, and assimilation have dominated national debate for years. 
“This is the direct result of letting the third world into your country. This is policy failure. This is preventable, and this is what happens when you use two-tier policing, allow for mass migration, and have suicidal empathy for those who hate you,” The Daily Wire’s Chloe Trapanotto said.

The gruesome killings of Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, and Rachel Morin, all at the hands of illegal immigrants, appalled much of the country and rocked the political establishment. 
In fact, President Donald Trump rode a wave of anger over President Joe Biden’s handling of immigration and border security to secure a second term. Under the Trump administration, illegal border crossings have plunged, and millions have either self-deported or been physically removed from the country, <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/news/2026/01/20/dhs-sets-stage-another-historic-record-breaking-year-under-president-trump">according to DHS.</a> 
Still, millions of illegal immigrants remain in the United States.
Across the pond, immigration levels have exploded in recent years, putting intense strain on public services and igniting a divisive debate on what it means to be British. Critics of the United Kingdom’s immigration policies argue the riots are about more than a single attack. They say public frustration has been building for years as concerns about crime, assimilation, housing, and social cohesion were dismissed or downplayed by political leaders.
British officials, including embattled Prime Minister Keir Starmer, raced to condemn the riots and vowed to prosecute offenders.

On Thursday, St. George’s Day—which celebrates St. George, the patron saint of England—Great Britain’s leftist prime minister Keri Starmer took aim at the nationalists who want to take their country back from the wave of immigrants who have inundated their country, calling them “plastic patriots.”
“St George’s flag stands for unity over hatred and decency over division,” Starmer wrote on X. &#8220;Those are the values I will always fight for. Some try to hijack our flag to spread hate, I reject their plastic patriotism.”

In his St. George’s Day speech, Starmer <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Efmotazhp10">reiterated</a>, “There’s no getting around the fact that there are voices both here and abroad who would seek to divide us, who would set us apart from each other, who want to pretend that in this country, what we really do, is to distinguish between people, to find the points of difference, to have a sort of toxic culture of hatred between different individuals, different groups, different communities. &#8230; We will not let them do this.”
Starmer was hammered for his language on social media:

“It’s deeply insulting, of course, his attitude today, but we’ve got used to that. I think all we can do now is sit tight and look forward to his demise, which will be inglorious, which will be catastrophic, and which will send him off into ignominity, hopefully,” former Met Police detective Peter Bleksley <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egvTq8AlURI">said</a>.
After a young man of Rwandan descent knifed to death three young girls, ages 6,8, and 9, in Southport, England, on July 29, 2024, and anti-immigration demonstrations were mounted from Liverpool, England, to Belfast, Ireland, Starmer condemned the protesters, calling the actions “far-right thuggery we have seen this weekend.”
Yet in 2020, Starmer had a quite different reaction to the Black Lives Matter riots in the United States, saying, “Like you, I was shocked and angered at the killing of George Floyd. And the response of President Trump and the U.S. authorities to the peaceful protests, to people rightly demanding justice, has been an affront to humanity. The last week has shone a spotlight on the racism, discrimination and the injustice experienced by those from black and minority ethnic communities in the U.S., in the UK, and around the world. Martin Luther King said, ‘Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.'&#8221;

St. George&#8217;s Day commemorates various things; according to some, the real St. George was likely a Greek-born soldier in the Roman Guard. He was executed on April 23, 303 AD, because he refused to renounce his Christian faith during the persecutions of the Emperor Diocletian. The day is primarily a religious feast day marking the anniversary of his death.
The most famous reason for the celebration is the legend of St. George and the Dragon. According to legend, a dragon was terrorizing a town, demanding human sacrifices. When the lot fell to the king’s daughter, George arrived, fought the dragon, and saved the princess. In the Middle Ages, this became a metaphor for the triumph of good over evil and Christian chivalry.
In England, St. George&#8217;s Day is a celebration of national heritage. The white flag with a red cross is flown outside pubs and homes.

‘F*cking Idiot’: Starmer Insults Citizens On St. George’s Day, Calls Them ‘Plastic Patriots’

British police arrested a fourth person in connection with an arson attack on Jewish community ambulances, with the detention happening at a London court where three males already charged in the case were appearing, prosecutors said on Saturday.
Hamza Iqbal, 20, Rehan Khan, 19, and a 17-year-old who cannot be named for legal reasons, are accused of torching four ambulances belonging to the Jewish volunteer emergency service Hatzola on March 23 while they were parked near a synagogue in the Golders Green area of north London.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer described the incident at the time as a &#8220;deeply shocking antisemitic arson attack.&#8221;
The SITE Intelligence ​website has said an Iran-aligned multinational militant collective called Islamic ​Movement of ⁠the People of the Right Hand had claimed responsibility for the incident.
It said the group had been behind similar fires in Europe.
Counter-terrorism officers are heading the investigation in Britain, but as yet the incident is not being treated as terrorism.
A prosecutor from the Crown Prosecution Service said police believe four people were involved in carrying out the attack itself, with a fourth individual being arrested on Saturday morning as part of an ongoing investigation.
The Metropolitan Police said the fourth suspect was a 19-year-old man who had been arrested by officers at the court while attending the hearing, after officers recognised him as being linked to the attack. He was arrested on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life and taken into custody.
Three men have been charged with arson with intent to damage property and being reckless as to whether life would be endangered. Two are British nationals, while the third holds dual British‑Pakistani citizenship.
All three were remanded in custody, with the 17‑year‑old ordered to be held in youth detention accommodation.
Hatzola is a not-for-profit volunteer emergency service that works alongside Britain&#8217;s National Health Service and primarily serves the Orthodox Jewish community.
The London Fire Brigade said explosions from cylinders on the vehicles shattered nearby windows, but no one was injured.
Attacks on Jewish people and Jewish targets have risen in Britain since the October 2023 Hamas assault on Israel that triggered the war in Gaza, according to police and community groups.

U.K. Police Arrest Fourth Suspect Over Attack On Jewish Ambulances

President Trump used the past tense on Saturday to describe the U.K. as America’s “once great ally” when he rejected the country&#8217;s offer to send aircraft carriers to the Middle East.
“The United Kingdom, our once great ally, made the greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East,” said Trump. “That’s OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don’t need them any longer. But we will remember. We don’t need people that join wars after we’ve already won.” 
Before changing his stance, U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer had criticized the strikes, <a href="https://x.com/search?q=uk&amp;src=typed_query">saying</a>, “Donald Trump has plunged the Middle East into chaos. We will stand by ethics, no matter the pressure.”
At a press conference on Friday, Starmer <a href="https://x.com/ChinaNow24/status/2030009994587025619">explained</a> the policy shift came when Iran started attacking countries around the Gulf and the surrounding region.
“When Iran started attacking countries around the Gulf and the wider region, the situation changed. Iran has now fired drones and missiles at ten countries that did not attack them,&#8221; Starmer said. &#8220;These are allies of the U.K. where we have hundreds of thousands of British people as well as British military personnel. Our number one priority is protecting our people.&#8221;
Before Iran’s attacks, Starmer explained he only wanted a negotiated settlement with Iran where they would give up their nuclear ambitions. “That’s why I took the decision that the U.K. would not join the initial strikes on Iran by the U.S. and Israel. That decision was deliberate. It was in the national interest and I stand by it.&#8221;
Trump <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-slams-starmer-not-winston-churchill-refusal-back-iran-strikes">criticized</a> Starmer on his initial decision, saying, “This is not Winston Churchill we are dealing with.”
Initially, Starmer blocked the United States from using British military bases for strikes against Iran during Operation Epic Fury. However, the U.K. later gave Trump permission for “defensive strikes.”
The president wanted to use British territories in the Indian Ocean. Days later, the U.K. agreed, but for the intervening time, American air forces had to make other arrangements.

Trump Nixes Help From Brits, Says Iran War ‘Already Won’

Iran

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who has seen his approval rating in the United Kingdom plunge to around 50 points underwater, boasted about his country&#8217;s decision to stay out of the conflict in Iran to a group of Muslims on Tuesday.
Starmer <a href="https://x.com/Suffragent_/status/2028949451490881950">spoke</a> to Muslims at a Ramadan ceremony held at Westminster Hall on Tuesday night and was applauded when he said, &#8220;On Iran, I want to make clear that the U.K. was not involved in the offensive strikes of the U.S. and Israel, and that remains the case.&#8221;
&#8220;As many of you know, I never supported the Iraq war back in 2003, and I&#8217;m determined that we learn and follow the lessons today,&#8221; he added. &#8220;However, Iran has attacked countries like us who played no role &#8230; the attacks are indiscriminate. And so what we are now doing is allowing our bases to be used for the defensive purposes of preventing those attacks and protecting innocent lives.&#8221;
After President Donald Trump authorized the U.S. military to conduct joint strikes with Israel on Iran last weekend, Starmer immediately <a href="https://x.com/Keir_Starmer/status/2027756559304966356">made clear</a> that while Iran &#8220;poses a direct threat&#8221; to many Brits, especially Iranian dissidents and Jewish people, the United Kingdom was not involved in the strikes targeting Iranian leaders, military infrastructure, and nuclear sites. Starmer also initially refused to allow American forces to use British bases to conduct strikes.
After Trump <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/02/uk-airbases-us-attack-iran-trump-starmer">ripped</a> Starmer over the refusal to grant the United States military permission to use U.K. bases, the prime minister backed down and allowed American forces to use the United Kingdom&#8217;s base in Diego Garcia, an island in the Indian Ocean. Trump said Britain &#8220;took far too long&#8221; to agree to the U.S. military&#8217;s request to operate out of Diego Garcia for &#8220;Operation Epic Fury.&#8221;
Trump argued that Britain should have been fully on board with the Iran strikes, saying that Iran has been responsible for killing a &#8220;lot of people from your country.&#8221;
Starmer&#8217;s remarks at the Ramadan ceremony on Tuesday were criticized by conservatives who have warned that Britain&#8217;s lax immigration policies are moving the country away from its traditional Western values, as scores of Muslim migrants have moved to London and the surrounding area in recent years. England&#8217;s Muslim population has jumped to around four million from less than three million in 2011. Muslims now make up around 6% of the United Kingdom&#8217;s total population.
England has also reportedly been a haven for Mojtaba Khamenei, the man poised to take over as Iran&#8217;s Supreme Leader following the death of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2026-01-28/how-iran-supreme-leader-khamenei-s-son-built-a-global-property-empire">reported</a> in January that Mojtaba Khamenei is part of a vast Iranian network that has bought property throughout Europe, including &#8220;more than a dozen properties in London.&#8221;
Mojtaba Khamenei reportedly acquired the properties through Iranian businessman Ali Ansari, who has been sanctioned by the United Kingdom and the United States. One of Mojtaba Khamenei&#8217;s properties is on The Bishops Avenue, considered to be one of the most affluent streets in the world.
U.S. diplomatic cables published by WikiLeaks in 2008 also <a href="https://nypost.com/2026/03/04/world-news/ayatollah-khameneis-son-now-tipped-to-be-supreme-leader-was-apparently-treated-for-impotency-in-uk-hospitals-report/">report</a> that Mojtaba Khamenei made multiple trips to London to receive medical treatment for impotence after struggling to conceive a child with his wife.

LONDON FALLEN: Keir Starmer Brags To Muslims That Brits Didn’t Help Strike Iran

The British government is considering removing former Prince Andrew from the line of succession following his recent arrest.
The legislation would prevent Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor from ever becoming king, the BBC reported.
Mountbatten-Windsor was stripped of his titles last year, but is still eighth in line to the throne. He would only be next in line following the deaths of Prince William, William’s three children, Prince Harry, and Harry’s two children.
Removing Mountbatten-Windsor from succession would be the “right thing to do,” Defence Minister Luke Pollard told the BBC.
The government would not take steps to remove Mountbatten-Windsor until after the police investigation concludes, Pollard said. He added that he hoped the move would “enjoy cross-party support.”
Prime Minister Keir Starmer has indicated support for such legislation, The Times <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/uk/royal-family/article/will-andrew-be-removed-from-line-of-succession-ksgdd3jhx?gaa_at=eafs&amp;gaa_n=AWEtsqdNWa15Dk7Exka6IcXf8U20YrZrUc5VGCDfw81RF_a47qLSP6R9Y8Nw&amp;gaa_ts=6999e484&amp;gaa_sig=dX5zcawzbCxM4QsAaSTq_4CYPGVdFBY18JBbpurubugbk9GtepHlSMJ0iVJhVtB6rJeNOdGpzD8jnpZOkNZ-DA%3D%3D">reported</a>. Buckingham Palace has said it will not interfere should Parliament proceed.
Still, James Murray, chief secretary to the Treasury, told the BBC that “any questions in that sphere would be quite complicated.”
Thames Valley Police arrested Mountbatten-Windsor on his 66th birthday on Thursday, The Daily Wire previously reported. He was held on suspicion of misconduct in public office but released later that day, according to the BBC.
His was the first arrest of a member of the British royal family since Charles I was arrested almost 400 years ago.
Law enforcement said Mountbatten-Windsor was being investigated over concerns that he shared “confidential material,” reportedly including trade documents, with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Mountbatten-Windsor could face life in prison if convicted.
“Following a thorough assessment, we have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office,” Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright said at the time.
The Metropolitan Police expanded the investigation Friday and is contacting all of Andrew’s former protection officers, The Times reported.
King Charles III called for a fair investigation into Mountbatten-Windsor.
“What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities,” he said in a statement following Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest. “In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation.”
Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre, who died by apparent suicide last year, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/former-prince-andrew-arrested-over-epstein-files-faces-life-in-prison">alleged</a> that Mountbatten-Windsor sexually abused her when she was 17. He previously <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-60667111">settled</a> a civil lawsuit brought by Giuffre in 2022 without admitting wrongdoing.
“He knows what he’s done and he can attest to that,” Giuffre said in 2019. “He knows exactly what he’s done and I hope he comes clean about it.”
Giuffre&#8217;s family welcomed the arrest.
&#8220;Today, our broken hearts have been lifted at the news that no one is above the law, not even royalty,&#8221; they said. &#8220;He was never a prince.&#8221;
&#8220;For survivors everywhere, Virginia did this for you,” they added.

Early Saturday morning, the United States <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/united-states-carries-out-military-strikes-on-venezuela-captures-president-nicolas-maduro">launched</a> a “large-scale” military strike on Venezuela and captured President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. World leaders are weighing in and are divided on the United States’ actions.
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva <a href="https://x.com/LulaOficial">condemned</a> the strike, saying, “The bombings on Venezuelan territory and the capture of its president cross an unacceptable line.” He called for the international community to “respond vigorously to this episode.”
Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez echoed Silva’s call for an international response, <a href="https://x.com/DiazCanelB/status/2007359344829141372">saying</a>, “Cuba denounces and urgently demands the reaction of the international community against the criminal attack by the U.S. on Venezuela.”
Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Russia was “extremely alarmed” by the United States’ strike. “Such actions, if they actually occurred, constitute an unacceptable infringement on the sovereignty of an independent state, respect for which is a key principle of international law.”
U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer neither condemned nor supported the strike, <a href="https://x.com/SkyNews/status/2007429055365144708">saying</a>, “Well, I want to establish the facts first. I want to speak to President Trump. I want to speak to allies.” The prime minister did make clear that “the UK was not involved in any way in this operation.”
Like Starmer, Italian Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani <a class="c-link" href="https://x.com/Antonio_Tajani/status/2007421630134235555" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://x.com/Antonio_Tajani/status/2007421630134235555" data-sk="tooltip_parent">weighed in without</a> offering either endorsement or condemnation, stating, “I continue to follow closely and in coordination with the Prime Minister the developments of the situation in Venezuela with particular regard to the safety of the Italian community.”
Argentina&#8217;s President Javier Milei <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2026/01/03/maduro-captured-world-reaction-00709580">said</a>: “Long live freedom, damn it,” “VIVA LA LIBERTAD CARAJO.”
