Letter of the week: Illegal immigrants (and some legal ones) are preying on British decency and the British pocket
Dear Editor,
Reformists and Farage have been officially and simplistically charged with racism.
The issue isn’t racism, it’s exploitation of England, a very different focus.
If people enter Britain illegally they have already committed a crime and are therefore criminals, regardless of race. And among those entering legally are many who are doing so for the purpose of exploiting the polite English culture to get what they can out of the British system for free. Also regardless of race.
Reform’s protest is about these people preying on British decency and the British pocket, not racism. It is about these foreign opportunists arriving, many of whom bring cultures indigestible to English culture and who, in large part, are occupying the country to abuse its good nature and its easy, attractive handouts.
So anyone confusing the real problem with racism, who are shallowly noticing that many of these hopeful exploiters are people of colour – and in doing so, then flailing about hysterically with the r-word – are actually proving it is they alone who are racist.

Time to sack this pathetic Government
Dear Editor
Over the years the ‘racist’ term has been used and abused by socialists trying to ward off those resisting their ideology. They have used it so often that now it doesn’t quite have the power it used to have.
The concerted effort at the Labour conference shows just how pathetic this Government is. What did they expect, swarms of Reform voters taking to the streets to protest against Reform policies?
Labour never use logic nor provide a good argument, they simply label someone or some group opposing them as bad from their ideological list of slur terms. If this is the best they can do against the right, we should all denounce them as totally unfit to rule. They are not just divisive but sadly they are crude, cruel and dishonest in their attacks.
Now that more of us can see how badly we are being governed by Labour and the degree to which they can sink into the gutter when they have no honest reproach, it’s a wonder they have any supporters left, and we should make it very transparent that we want them removed.
It clearly is time to sack this awful Government and find a way to make sure that socialists never come to office ever again. In the days when the monarchy stood for something they might well have intervened on our behalf, but those days are long gone. It’s up to us to make our feelings known.

Only Advance UK has the guts to call out Islamic violence
Dear Editor
If ever there was proof that this country is on its way down the drain into the sewer, it is the violent anti-Semitic hordes taking to the streets, emboldened by years of successive governments turning a blind eye to the growth of Islamist activism, and cowing to the Muslim vote. On Thursday night, sparked by the act of Islamic Jihad in the attack on Jews at a Manchester synagogue, they were out again en masse, waving their Palestine flags, calling for ‘death to the IDF’, chanting ‘globalise the Intifada’, and charging through police lines.
There were photo opportunities for political leaders to give their feigned ‘horror and remorse’ at the murders. But no mention of Islamic terrorism – just the convenient ‘anti-Semitic’ label that only points to the victims, not the perpetrators or the ideology behind their acts. Once again, reality and truth are being denied and swept under the carpet.
Not one parliamentary political party has the guts to call out Islam as being the source of this violence. Tory and Labour have ignored and enabled the problem. Farage states that Reform can only appease the problem. The only party calling out the truth about Islam, and the need to deal with it, is Advance UK. If we want to save this country, Advance UK is the way forward.

The immigrant army
Dear Editor
Interesting that many incoming illegal invading young men are being put up in Army barracks. Well, well, no doubt to be trained to put down potential civilian unrest as the police are too busy with their hate crime teams. Interesting also, that one of the first statements uttered by Starmer was that he was planning to build far more prisons. I wonder why?

Is ‘state cash for criminals’ a legal policy?
Dear Editor
The migrant crisis reached the status of farce many months ago so by now the population of Britain is immune to amazement at learning about lunatic practices like the Home Office giving criminals £2,000 and a free flight to Romania!
However I cannot understand how this can be legal under the framework of British Law. Has some sort of Act of Parliament gained Royal Assent in order to introduce this new policy of ‘State cash grant for criminals’? Does the British State have the legal power to spend money on this kind of financial support to criminals? Are those implementing this policy guilty of some crime?
On another matter, I could not help noticing that when asked if
Reform would repeal a digital ID Act as soon as they get elected, Farage obfuscated and avoided saying ‘yes’.

Starmer’s speech was clear incitement to violence against Farage
Dear Editor
I wish to complain in the strongest possible terms about Keir Starmer’s speech at the Labour Conference. I believe that Starmer did incite violence against Nigel Farage in his speech as he implied that Farage was racist after he accused Farage of being the ‘enemy’. I am deeply distressed with these accusation as I believe it also implies that I and other Reform members are also racist and the ‘enemy’ by belonging to the Reform Political Party headed by Nigel Farage. I firmly believe that this description by Starmer is extremely dangerous as it puts not only Nigel Farage but me and many other Reform members at risk whilst leafleting or campaigning for Reform.
I therefore request that you investigate Starmer and all the members of his cabinet who spoke at the conference and prosecute them for un-necessary, un-true and unwelcome ‘Hate Speech’ under the relevant Public Order Acts. I do not believe that Starmer was protected by parliamentary privilege as his accusations were made in public and broadcast on television news.
Please see the attached video where a barrister supports the argument that Starmer’s comments were an incitement to violence.

Mad Ed Miliband must go
Dear Editor
Where is the ‘reliable’ and ‘affordable’ green electricity we have been promised for years? Where is the £300 reduction in our bills?
‘Reliable’? Over the last year renewables could produce only 38.3 per cent of our electricity so we had to rely on gas 29.9, nuclear 13.3, biomass 7.3 (not green) and Europe 11.2 per cent to keep the lights on.
‘Affordable’? The wind industry gets £billions of subsidies every year in addition to their strike price. Constraint payments are expected to increase from £1.5billion in 2024 to £2.4billion in 2025. The CfD scheme has paid out £10billion and counting. For ONE year 2023/2024 the RO sucked £4.6billion from consumers. The total cost to the electricity consumer of renewable electricity subsidy schemes since 2002 is £220billion. Go green, go bust. Mad Ed Miliband must go since he has lied to Parliament and the public.
