Close the border
What kind of idiot do you take me for?
(Warning: the following blog contains angry swear words.)
Oh here we go. It is all the fault of the Common Travel Area. That’s obviously the briefing given out by team Starmer to the papers. If it wasn’t for the CTA (established since the 1920s and restated after Brexit) that has protected the rights of Irish and British citizens to essentially move and work between the two countries as if they were natives of both, then we wouldn’t have the diversity stabbings, beheadings and rapes etc.
What absolute nonsense is this?
The Spectator briefing this morning “there is no hard border between Northern Ireland and Ireland, allowing migrants to travel north to claim asylum. Under the CTA, people can be deported to the Republic but if they claim asylum they must be processed in Britain. This appears to be how Alodid gained entry to the UK.” (What? He went over the non-border in NI - nothing to do with the CTA.)
The Times: “The UK has returned only one asylum seeker to Ireland since a post-Brexit deal was signed in 2020. Home Office insiders have said that the common travel area (CTA) with Ireland was a weakness for them, as concerns continued to mount over illegal immigrants taking advantage of the lack of routine immigration checks to enter the UK. Hadi Alodid, the Sudanese man who has been charged with attempted murder after a knife attack on Monday night, travelled from Dublin to Belfast where he immediately claimed asylum.” (So not the mainland then. It is nothing to do with the CTA.)
“Home Office insiders”. Really? Would that be people who are close to Starmer and want to shape the narrative?
This is what they always do: seek to change the rights of ordinary, law-abiding British and Irish people while telling you this is going to stop the diversity stabbings, beheadings and rapes. It won’t.
The Common Travel Area should not be touched. If I thought taking extra time at Gatwick airport to show my passport to border control would stop this madness I’d do it. But it will not make one jot of difference. The CTA is not in fact about the non-border border between the Republic and the NI, it is about how you are supposed to be able to fly between Cork and Manchester and Dublin and Edinburgh and Dublin and Heathrow without showing a passport.
The hard border between the south and north or NI and the Republic, whatever parlance you want to use, is not coming back. Anyone who thinks this is a solution to the immigration madness needs to get a hold of themselves. Therefore there is nothing stopping the latest diversity import Hadi Alodid, from Sudan, from leaving Sudan (Red Country) travelling to Paris then to Dublin and then making his way to Belfast either by train or road. He will still arrive on the streets of Belfast ready to behead someone. It has nothing to do the with the CTA but everything to do with the ridiculous immigration policy both Dublin and London run.
Unlike other commentators out there and perhaps some of the posh toffs at the Spectator, as I have made very clear in running this Substack which is actually called The West Brit for fuck sake, that I for one, do not want beheadings in Belfast, or little girls stabbed in Dublin or school girls stabbed in Southport or students (one of whom was an Irish citizen) stabbed by a schizophrenic diversity import in Nottingham. Nor do I want teachers fatally stabbed on the banks of the Grand Canal in Tullamore by another diversity import. I don’t want any diversity stabbing anywhere in the British Isles.
We have plenty of our own lunatics, we don’t need to be importing anymore from the likes of Sudan. How hard can this be to understand?
So you expect me to say, oh we will get rid of the CTA area and then the folks over there in Southport and Nottingham can just suck it up? I don’t think so. That’s not how I roll and neither should you.
Also, for those who say we should have a “border down the Irish sea” this is also moronic. First, the Unionists won’t go for it and second on that logic it would keep the likes of Hadi Alodid of the parish of Sudan on this island. Is this the plan?
(Above. The timetable showing how you can get from Dublin to Newry and then off to Belfast. No, you are not going to have people checking passports on the train despite what ‘Home Office insiders’ might brief to the idiotic British papers.)
And if the secret plan is to keep all the lunatics instead in Britain (because now they suddenly cannot travel to the island of Ireland without ‘a check’) where they can stab away to their hearts content, including second generation Irish students, then I’m supposed to take that as some kind of win? Is this really the plan? I don’t think so.
Let’s be clear. The Common Travel Area is not responsible for any of the madness we see. The CTA is not the reason why there is a small boats invasion on the south coast of England.
The reason for all of this madness is The Asylum Industrial Complex that has embedded the architecture of open borders into the laws of both the UK and Ireland. These are the Human Rights Act 1998, the European Convention of Human Rights, as well as numerous international documents. These were then embedded firmly into the system by the likes of Sir Keir Starmer KC and Lord Hermer KC and the entire NGO system such as the latest, Nick Henderson chief executive of Irish Refugee Council writing in the Irish Times today on how we should all be nicer to asylum seekers. Also in the Journal it was reported, the “Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission (IHREC) has written to the housing minister expressing concern over provisions in new housing legislation that would require social housing applicants to prove they are legally and habitually resident in Ireland.” How awful! That’s what they are concerned about. Not about near beheadings but that Irish people might get preference in housing.
These NGOs are all funded by the taxpayer. This should end immediately.
Here is an idea. Why don’t both governments just secure the border of both Britain and Ireland? How about that? Lock it down, you’ve done it before you can do it again. They are both fucking islands, how hard can that be?
How dare they come for the CTA when they are literally escorting thousands of unvetted, military aged men from dangerous countries across the English channel. How dare they talk about the CTA when the RAF flew in thousands of Afghanis and then covered it up with a super injunction. How fucking dare they?
How about you secure the border you can actually secure – that’s all around the islands and not the one internal one – and have zero asylum seekers from any country either Foreign Office deems too dangerous to travel to. Declare your national emergency, seek the exemption and do it.
They won’t do that because they don’t want to. It is much easier to blame the fact I can drive to Newry in 40 mins and don’t have to show my passport when I arrive at Gatwick for the diversity stabbings. What kind of idiot do you take me for?
These people, the Starmers and the Hermers and the same gang, here are scum. Sorry, if that language is but to gutter like but it is true. I’m not some posh totty from the Spectator, I’m just an angry concerned citizen.
They will import people from ultra-violent countries to protect their human rights, while sacrificing the human rights of our children not be stabbed at dance class or leaving school, not to be stabbed coming home from a night out, not to have our neighbour nearly beheaded in the street and for our children’s teacher not to be stabbed while out on a run.
What is needed now, as a Mr Baumbruck said in a comment on my piece yesterday is “synchronised mass (peaceful) action’, in other words peaceful protest, a tax strike, and civil disobedience. He is 100% correct.
Buy me a coffee.



"Here is an idea. Why don’t both governments just secure the border of both Britain and Ireland? How about that?" Yes!
Great article.
The CTA is indeed not the problem. The issue is how the Sudanese man flew from Paris to Dublin.
Ireland is not in Schengen. How did Alodid board a plane in Paris and how and why did Dublin let him in?
By all means rail against the British press and its knee jerk, thoughtless responses, but there is a deeper question about the Irish government's policy here.
