#UK #France #migration - ‘Everyone wants to go to England’: Syrian migrants in Calais reluctant to return • FRANCE 24

16 December 2024

Although Syrians at home and across the world have celebrated the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime, many are also nervous about what the future may hold for the country following the takeover by Islamist-led rebels.

At a makeshift migrant camp in Calais, many Syria migrants say they still intent to attempt the perilous crossing to the UK rather than head home.

1 December 2024

Right wing media is reporting the the richest man in the world, Elon Musk, wants to give Reform UK and Nigel Farage $100m to help the Clacton MP become Prime Minister. While this would be illegal, we have seen how the Tories and even Labour have benefited from the help of millionaires.

#Russia #UK - Russia on mission to cause mayhem on UK streets, warns MI5 | BBC News

8 October 2024

Russia's intelligence agency has been on a mission to generate "mayhem on British and European streets", the head of MI5 has said, as he warned the UK faces the most "complex and interconnected" threat it has ever seen. There has also been 20 Iran-backed plots since 2022, the director general Ken McCallum said. He said the complex mix of terror-related threats and threats from nation states meant that MI5 had "one hell of a job on its hands". A total of 43 late-stage attack plots on the UK have been foiled since 2017, he said, with some plotters trying to "get hold of firearms and explosives".

Yasmin – On My Own Lyrics

The moments that I think that maybe
Could this be a big mistake?
Have I made the wrong decision?
Is this the right rode to take?
I could have had a night of fight,
Open your…like my parents wanted,
But now I’m feeling so alive,
I found the sun shine I’m no longer wanting.
And I feel the fire burning deeper in my soul,
Struggling for protection,
When I reach you, let me know!
And I feel I need some guidance,
And my heart will let it show,
And…

I’m gonna make it on my own!
Working late to earn my keeping,
Cause no one is gonna pay my way,
The night is cold I should be sleeping,
But I’m waiting for my morning train.
And I do this till I reach my ground,
Because no one is gonna do it for me,
And the night is young, but time is on,
And I’m gonna do this till I reach my glory.
And I feel the fire burning deeper in my soul,
Struggling for protection,
When I reach you, let me know!
And I feel I need some guidance,
And my heart will let it show,
And…

I’m gonna make it on my own!
Cause I’m losing friends and gaining foes,
What tomorrow’s bringing, no one is sure,
And if our failure leads…
I did it on,


I did it on my own!
