This is one of those yers when the festivals of the main monotheistic religions coincide. So let me wish all Abrahamic followers blessings for Easter, Passover and Ramadan. ✝️✡️☪️

How would Easter message have been received by the Incas, with their sacrificial religion?

@andrew_lilico Way ahead of you, Andrew.
RT @DanielJHannan: Some proposals for a peace settlement:
🇺🇦 Donbas and Crimea to Ukraine
🇬🇪 Abkhazia and South Ossetia to Georgia
🇪🇪 Jaanilinn, Petseri and Kulkna Island to Estonia
🇫🇮 Karelia, Petsamo and Salla to Finland
🇯🇵 Kuril Islands to Japan
Putin could hardly complain, given his own logic.

We should not confuse immigration with asylum.
Some people want to immigrate to Britain. If they have the right skills and qualities, great: I'd like to see more of them.
But an asylum-seeker is trying to get *out* of a particular country not *in* to a particular country.

We've left, Guy. You don't get to tell us how to run our own affairs any more.
RT @GuyVerhofstadt: UK doesn't do its part to for Ukrainians, now wants to send desperate refugees to Rwanda!
Anything to deflect from those lockdown parties.
Britain is a warning to France and other European countries of where populist Government's lead to.

I support an increase in lawful migration. We need workers, and it takes guts and ambition to move to a new country.
I also support securing our borders which - we now know beyond doubt - requires offshore processing. Well done, @pritipatel. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/fury-uk-unveils-nasty-plan-26707722

Who could have seen this coming?
RT @DanielJHannan: This explains a lot. The lockdown will make almost everyone worse off. Jobs will go, taxes will rise, inflation will destroy savings. But, as of now, only 26 per cent think it has had a negative impact on their income. I’m afraid the rest are in for a nasty shock.

RT @DanielJHannan: Unpopular, I know, but people should use exonyms. The French should call Dover Douvres. The Germans should call Bratislava Pressburg. We should say Kiev - not because it’s the Russian form, but because it’s the English form. Argentines should say Malvinas for the same reason.

Dostoyevsky set the key scene of The Brothers Karamazov in the Optina monastery. It was here that his characters debated whether morality was possible without God. In 1940, Optina became an NKVD base, and that question found a grisly non-fictional answer. https://www.conservativehome.com/thecolumnists/2022/04/daniel-hannan-in-poland-proof-the-nation-state-is-our-surest-shield-against-tyranny.html

@ivangill Thank you, Ivan. But I love my country too much to countenance such a thing.

Nought out of three, I'm afraid, David.
Churchill replaced Chamberlain during WW2, prompted by the fall of Norway.
Lloyd George replaced Asquith after the Somme offensive had ended.
Eden resigned the year after Suez following a breakdown in his health.

Telling civil servants to do their jobs is not "bullying", for Heaven's sake. Given the Home Office's lamentable failure to process the claims of Ukrainian refugees, maybe some officials could do with a bit of a kick in the chuddhis. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/18235998/michael-gove-bullying-ukraine-refugees/

If Europhiles truly cared, they would add their voices to those in Kiev urging Brussels to lift restrictions on exports - even if only the checks on goods transiting to the UK. But that would mean moving past their dislike of Britain, so I'm not holding my breath. (9/9) [ends]
