Makes you proud to be British

Hot on the heels of the “racist vans” telling illegal immigrants to go home, our government has today deployed troops of paramilitaries at transport hubs across the country to round up anyone non-white.

The SS-wannabes in question are the UK Border Agency, not – please take note – the police.

And they do not have the authority to do what they are doing by law. 

You should read this, which cites, chapter and verse, what the powers of immigration officers are and makes it very clear that racial profiling just anybody they don’t like the look of on the streets ain’t one of them.

Yes, illegal immigrants should not be in the country, and yes, action to deter illegal immigration is necessary. But this is state terrorism, unsanctioned by law.

A lot of people think this sort of shit is ok because they don’t like illegal immigrants. It’s not – and I remind you of the words of Martin Niemöller:

First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Catholic.
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.
