Watch Europe, watch the United Kingdom, as I’m continually saying, because what the left tries there, they will want to try here. It’s especially sad to see the state that the once-Great Britain is in now, given that they were once “America, Original Recipe,” and under Winston Churchill (who was half-American), they faced down Hitler’s Germany alone for several months, until the United States and the Soviet Union got involved.
That was then, this is now. The United Kingdom has, like much of the rest of Europe, tossed open the floodgates to “refugees” from every Third World feces-hole in the Middle East and Africa, and now the British Red Cross is doubling down by telling the refugees, “Oh, don’t worry, we’ll pay for your families to join you.”
The British Red Cross is paying for hundreds of families to come to the UK to be reunited with migrants granted asylum, despite growing concerns over housing shortages.
The charity locates, advises and funds the travel costs of up to 1,000 family members a year to come from abroad to join people who have been granted refugee status.
They are a portion of the record 20,000 family visas granted to children and wives or partners of refugees to join them in Britain.
Now, hang on just a moment; if these people, the ones already in the United Kingdom, are seeking asylum – if they truly are, as they claim, refugees – why did they leave their families behind? What kind of a man, fleeing whatever he’s fleeing, leaves wife and children behind to face the music?
That casts a rather enormous pall of doubt on whether or not these people really deserve “refugee” status.
Home Office figures show the overall number of successful applications for family visas has increased five-fold in three years, from 4,310 in the year to March 2023 to 20,592 in the year to this March.
Migrants granted asylum or refugee status in the UK can sponsor family members to come to the UK, with charities like the Red Cross providing advice and funds to help them.
Well, of course, applications have increased! It’s free!
What an utterly ridiculous policy. What a fine pass has come to the nation that once was home to not only Winston Churchill, but also “Mad Jack” Churchill, William Shakespeare, Sir Isaac Newton, Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson, Queen Elizabeth I, Sir Walter Raleigh, Margaret Thatcher, and many more. If those people were physically spinning in their graves to the level we should expect, the gyroscopic forces would have kicked Earth out of its orbit by now.

“But Ward,” you may very well ask, “This is happening in the United Kingdom. Why should we worry?” To which my answer is and has been, “Because they’ll try it here next.” For every dumb idea, for every stupid policy, for every inexplicable act of societal suicide attempted by the left in the United Kingdom, Europe, or anywhere else, we should be aware that American leftists are looking at them and champing at the bit to try to do the same thing here.
This is why we have to vote. We have to vote in every election and at all costs. This is why we can’t afford to ignore the left, silly and nonsensical as they have become. This is a battle that simply never will end, and while our side won a great victory in the 2024 elections, we now must stay informed, stay motivated, and gird our loins for 2026, 2028, and beyond. Stay alert. Stay aware. And vote as though the future of the republic depends on it, because it does.
Editor’s Note: Democrat politicians and their radical supporters will do everything they can to interfere with and threaten ICE agents enforcing our immigration laws.
