Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

Reminder that almost half of those convicted in recent British anti-migrant "protests" (supposedly about the safety of women & children) had previous form for domestic violence. It was over 60% in Bristol - how high in Citywest? www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/uk-riot...
Almost half of convicted 2024 UK rioters 'previously reported for domestic abuse'
Though its argued that the UK riots of 2024 emerged from 'legitimate grievances', this data does little to support the claim.

Humphreys will have lost more than the presidential election after the 24th. Her embarrassing attempts to smear Catherine Connolly and her arguably defamatory remarks about Paul Murphy have eroded whatever integrity she had going into this campaign.
