Ecuadorian Cleaner Sacked For Eating Leftover Tuna Sandwich Found In Meeting Room

A cleaner is suing a city law firm that earns £46 million a year after she claims she was fired for eating a leftover sandwich.

The Ecuadorian single mother filed the claim after working for a company under contract with the corporate legal firm Devonshires in London.

She was fired shortly before Christmas, according to United Voices of the World Union representatives, who advocate for migrant workers.

Gabriela Rodriguez, 39, was said to have been fired from her £13-an-hour job for the ‘theft’ of a leftover tuna sandwich, which was due to be thrown away after a meeting.

According to the Times, the company complained to her employer, Total Clean, over the non-return of leftover sandwiches.

Then, she was fired for allegedly stealing “client property…without authority or reasonable excuse,” as she disclosed to The Sun. She is currently fighting for an unjust termination. 

The United Voices of the World Union claimed in a social media campaign that the sandwich in issue, which some reports suggested had egg instead of tuna, only cost £1.50. 

The union said on Facebook, ‘Quick placard and banner-making session today in preparation for our action next week in solidarity with Gabriela.

‘Gabriela is an Ecuadorian single mother who, after two years cleaning the offices of a corporate law firm, was summarily sacked just before Christmas on grounds of “theft”—the ” “theft” in question being a £1.50 Tesco tuna sandwich that she ate, which was left over from a lawyers’ meeting and was due to be discarded.

‘Sacking cleaners on ridiculous grounds like this—treating them like the dirt they clean—is not uncommon, though it is always outrageous, and in UVW we always fight back.

‘We are taking the case to court but that takes time, and justice delayed is justice denied, so in the meantime, we’ll be doing what we do best and fighting back through direct action.’

However, a spokesperson for the law firm told The Times they had not made a formal complaint and ‘expressly told’ the cleaning contractor not to take any action.

In a statement to the newspaper, Total Clean said the action they took was ‘to maintain the integrity of our workforce and service by ensuring we deal appropriately with any actions that undermine the hard work and reputation of our incredible team, who conduct themselves impeccably’. 

It added: ‘Trust and honesty is of paramount importance.’

It doesn’t matter where this lady is from; the benefits are there for everyone living and working in this country. Should they be entitled is another question.

For crying out loud, it was a friggin sandwich. In any case, it was going to be discarded. Even with benefits added on, thirteen pounds an hour isn’t a large wage—even though she could have been over the eligibility threshold to get them.

It is my belief that employers ought to be held more accountable for providing their workers with a living wage. A woman who works as a cleaner does not necessarily have less value than a lawyer or barrister. This world would be in total turmoil if none of us had a crucial role to play in keeping the wheels turning.

Cleaning jobs are not beneath the general British public, but then it’s not anybody’s fault that the empire is in our blood and that we are way above the little people in this world. Don’t hate the player; hate the game.

Although her kind may not be welcomed in the UK, at least she was employed, in contrast to those sluggish losers who were born here.

Up To £1 Million Saved By Dimming Street Lights Across The UK

Streets across Britain are being plunged into darkness by cash-strapped councils aiming to save up to £1 million a year and avoid bankruptcy.

Dozens of local authorities have plans to dim street lights on main roads at night to cut costs, a move that safety groups have now warned could put women at ‘serious risk’.

By lowering its lighting, Croydon London Borough Council hopes to save as much as £1 million annually. 

The Havering London Borough Council stated that between midnight and five in the morning, it was forced to reduce the intensity of 4,000 lights on its major thoroughfares. 

As part of a cost-cutting measure, Cornwall has chosen to turn off almost 35,000 lights—more than half of its supply—during the next several months. 

Despite a £32.5 million shortfall that is expected to increase to £81.9 million over the following four years, Havering acknowledged that it had approved its “toughest budget ever” with significant cutbacks.

However, protesters criticised the measure, claiming that it puts women at risk from predatory individuals who are encouraged by the lower lighting. 

The council, according to Our Streets Now, is considering women’s and girls’ safety as “an afterthought.” The organisation works to stop the sexual harassment of women and girls in public.

‘We know from research, from our members, and from the experiences of women and girls up and down the country that low and no street lighting poses a risk to their safety’, a spokesperson told The Telegraph.

The council’s leader, Ray Morgan, said however that he ‘fully recognised the worries around safety’ and that lights on residential roads would ‘remain on full power and brightness’.

Dimming their lights will also help Croydon London Borough Council save up to £1 million annually.

The three-time bankrupt London borough is to implement a new street lighting strategy that will lower illumination levels on major thoroughfares and residential streets by 50 percent.

The council estimated that by taking this action, their energy consumption would be cut by 33 percent, saving them around £967,000. 

A central control centre in Croydon allows for the adjustment of 23,500 street lights. 

There were no complaints throughout the test, and there was no “direct increase in street crimes,” according to a report written after the experiment was completed last year. 

Though it lacks current data, past polls, according to the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, which assists stalking victims, revealed that ‘the majority of respondents feel their personal safety to be more in danger in places where dimming or switching off of streetlights happens’.

Surely, though, this increases the danger for everyone at night, not just women? 

In summary, authorities are overstaffing and spending too much money as a result. Councils will be begging for funding, and the government will be held accountable if you wait long enough. It is a never-ending loop. With the power to terminate employees and remove absurdly high-paying positions from the system, investigations are required.

Of course, everyone is more in danger, but statistically speaking, women are more vulnerable, particularly when it comes to sexual assault. Not only is it unfortunate that we can’t just stroll around comfortably like we used to, but there have been a lot of documented assaults on both genders in recent years.

On a different subject, potholes on the roads make driving extremely hazardous, and the appalling condition of the pavements locally leads to falls and broken bones. Our services are the worst, and our taxes are at an all-time high. All of our money—where does it go?

Students Are Trying To Cancel My Bookshop For Selling Literature On Slavery

According to the proprietor of the bookshop, university students have attempted to close it down because it sells books about suicide and enslavement.

Tasha Berks has run Bookmark, a second-hand bookshop in Falmouth, for over 20 years, but claims that ‘woke’ students have recently come into her shop to ‘check’ if her collection is ‘racist’.

The 58-year-old chastised the Gen-Zers for their overt rudeness towards her and for taking pictures of books so they could subsequently purchase them online. 

She contended that a lot of the problems in the region might be attributed to Falmouth University’s expansion, which has allowed enrollment to more than double year since 2010. 

She told MailOnline: ‘I’ve had students come in and tell me I can’t have books on suicide and slavery on display.

‘One boy was taking photos of a book, I said, ‘I hope you’re not just going to buy that cheaper online’ but he said he was checking if it was racist.’

She said: ‘As a trader, I have never been more depressed because of the way young people are quite rude to me.

‘It’s not all of them – most are nice people – but I’ve had students come in and tell me I can’t have books on suicide and slavery on display.

‘The university has got too big, there are 7,000 students living in houses local people used to live in. 

‘It’s a beautiful place and I can understand why they want to be here, but they don’t understand working-class fishermen and that’s what this town was.

‘In the last three or four years most of the people we used to see all the time have left. I wish more locals would come into town and we would see old friends again, but they stay away.’

Residents also took issue with the town being called a “cultural void,” pointing out that it has several independent stores, art galleries, and yearly oyster and sea shanty festivals. 

Following the designation of Falmouth as the most dismal location to live in Britain, incensed residents accuse second-home owners of sapping the community’s vitality. 

An annual poll put Falmouth ahead of places like Crawley in West Sussex, Peterborough in Cambridgeshire, and Alloa in Scotland. 

Savage reviews on the satirical website iLiveHere, where people leave honest and brutal assessments, branded the area as ‘bland and boring’ and said it had an air of ‘soul-destroying mediocrity with a gaping cultural void’.

Celebrities like Paul Martin from Flog It! and author Joseph Conrad have formerly had homes in the town, which has the third biggest natural harbour in the world. Properties there sell for an average of £400,000.

Although slavery has existed throughout human history, some people become upset when they witness acts they believe to be discriminatory.

This should not be happening because these students have no idea what can happen if you cancel history.

They should all be given a book on the ‘Salem Witch Trials’ and see how similar their behaviour is. The only difference is they have smartphones instead of pitchforks.

These snowflakes represent today’s national disgrace.

It appears that these pitiful dullards have forgotten the lesson that we should learn from history, especially the mistakes made in the past, and ensure that they don’t occur again.

Erasing the past teaches us nothing, and we will eventually repeat the same mistakes.

They need slapping back into reality, and all this rubbish is being driven by the current education system, by so-called educated people who have never worked in the real world, just education.

‘Bonkers’ Court Ruling Gives Squatters Right To Stay In 140-Year-Old Pub

Shameless squatters are smirking after moving into a historic 140-year-old pub and winning the right to stay thanks to a ‘bonkers’ court ruling—and now claim locals are bullying them.

A legal mishap has allowed intruders to remain inside the Baring Hall Hotel pub in Grove Park, Lewisham, in south-east London, which has been closed for almost four years after struggling during the COVID lockdown.

A judge has granted them permission to remain there because a hearing scheduled to address the problem was inadvertently scheduled for one day earlier than planned on court documents. The squatters are celebrating this decision, which has angered their neighbours. 

The popular pub was bought out by locals in July of last year with the intention of publican Garry Mallon reopening the Grade II-listed establishment and constructing a nine-bedroom hotel above. 

However, those aspirations were dashed when, a mere few weeks prior to the freeholder submitting his application, fifteen squatters came in, replaced all the locks, and began to write graffiti on the outside walls. 

After Mr. Mallon filed a lawsuit to try to have them removed, the squatters were unexpectedly granted a reprieve at Bromley County Court. 

This week’s Monday hearing included two of the squatters, but the case was postponed since the court scheduled the hearing one day early.

Due to the fact that the squatters were not given the statutory three-day notice period, a court decided that they might continue to live above the pub in the meantime while rejecting Mr Mallon’s possession order.

Sarah Freeman, 21, and Michael Johannes, who would not disclose his age, represented the squatter group in court, even though the majority did not show up. 

The duo did not reveal where they had previously lived or if they were occupying the property out of necessity.

Mr Johannes told the court, ‘We have no ill intention. We agree with saving the hall. We like what this man is doing. But we have had a horrible Facebook campaign against us.’

‘People have been spying on us, filming us without our consent,’ said Ms Freeman.

The pair went on to add that they understand ‘why people are upset’ but said they felt dehumanised.

Some of the squatters have been monitored by a Facebook group called Save the Baring Hall Hotel, which is run by residents. Members of the group have shared images of their vehicles parked on the drive and have recorded the gang changing a padlock. 

What’s up with these courts these days, Heaven knows.

This judge needs to be disbarred. Another lefty bleeding heart looking for ways to support the wrongdoers and stop people from going about their legal business. It’s disgusting.

However, there are so many homeless people on the streets; where are they all supposed to go? They’re happy to let migrants into our country, house them, feed them, put clothes on their backs, and then give them a home, but when it comes to the people of this country, we are like second-class citizens.

This could only happen in Great Britain, although we should obliterate ‘Great’ because we are no longer a great country. We are an absolute shambles, and people only want to come here because they know they will get a free ride.

There are more rights for criminals and illegals than there are for law-abiding citizens. Britain is a criminal paradise; no wonder millions want to come to our country, where our laws protect and serve them.

The law stinks, and judges only work within the framework supplied. We should be condemning our politicians; they make the laws and then blame everyone else who uses them.

Michigan waitress is FIRED after receiving astonishing $10,000 tip on $32.43 bill and splitting it with her co-workers 

The restaurant maintained that the termination of the Michigan server was a “business decision” unconnected to the substantial $10,000 tip that she received on a $32.43 transaction. 

Although she gave the money to eight other coworkers, Linsey Boyd, a mother from Michigan who got the astounding tip, was fired from the Mason Jar Cafe in Benton Harbour.

In a since-deleted Facebook post, Boyd claimed that the controversy resulted from an unknown client leaving a $10,000 tip to remember a buddy who had recently passed away.

The middle-aged man in a dark suit wished not to be identified but said he was in town for the funeral and intended to spread some cheer through the generous gratuity, according to the Detroit Free Press.

‘I just gave him a hug. I didn’t even know his name at that point, but I hugged him. He then told me he left her a memorial of someone very dear to him, and he wanted to do something kind and generous in her name,’ Boyd told WSBT. 

What started as a positive tale took a turn for the worse when Boyd disclosed in her widely shared article that she was fired due to “all of the drama, animosity, and hurt” that resulted from the large tip.

The restaurant owners, Able Martinez and Jayme Cousins, said that Boyd’s firing had nothing to do with the $10,000 tip, but they were constrained by “labour laws” in what they could disclose. 

‘We cannot comment on the nature of her losing her job due to labour laws and to protect the staff involved,’ the couple wrote in a Facebook post.

‘However, I will say it had nothing to do with the tip. She did receive the entire tip, but she did not pay taxes on it (the business did). Yes, she shared the tip at the request of the man who left it,’ they continued. 

However, Boyd provided her own account, claiming that she was requested to take a mental health day when “drama” erupted in the restaurant due to the tip. 

‘Drama ensued, and in an attempt to diffuse the situation and resolve any rumours, things became even worse,’ she wrote.

She did not specify what happened and has since deleted the post and taken her entire Facebook page down. But rumours have circulated, suggesting the staff who was not working that day may have expected to share the tip.

She was fired because the avaricious workers who weren’t there that day demanded a piece of her wealth. Why would they receive anything at all when they weren’t even there?

Taking into account the size of an average restaurant staff and dividing it among them all, this tip wasn’t revolutionary. If the restaurant received that much in tips on a good week, it wouldn’t surprise me.

This is terrible since she was gracious enough to give her gratuity to the other employees. She could use the money now that she is jobless. I believe that every person she split her money with should give it back to her, and shame on the business, but no good deed goes unpunished.

Some people out there are just so greedy and envious that they can’t be happy for another person getting a leg up in life, and I hope that this nice waitress gets more luck coming her way in the future because she didn’t deserve to lose her job.

It seems that one man’s good deed has caused so many problems, What a sad, greedy world we live in.

Six-Car Pile-Up On M6 Caused By Smart Motorway Computer Glitch

Insiders report that a “computer glitch” caused the safety system to shut down in a “catastrophic failure,” which resulted in a horrifying six-car pile-up on the M6.

A car was left like a ‘sitting duck’ after breaking down on a lane on the southbound M6 on Jan 19, leaving the vehicle stranded on an inside lane, which used to be a hard shoulder.

In the bombshell revelation, a whistleblower claimed that the National Highways’ systems ‘crashed’, disabling radar technology that could pick up the broken-down vehicle in the life-threatening incident, which lasted for three hours.

The car was unable to move to the emergency refuge area and was hit by vehicles between junctions 3A and 3 near Coventry, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Minor injuries were sustained by those involved in the incident; the whistleblower described the fact that no one was killed as “pure luck.”

Only the South East and East of England’s control centres were still operational when the others went offline. 

The malfunction prevented control room employees from using CCTV cameras, setting speed restrictions, putting up electronic signs, or closing lanes to oncoming traffic. 

The anonymous insider told The Daily Telegraph: ‘We had no stopped vehicle detection systems, no CCTV, and no control of signals and signs.

‘The fact no one was killed is pure luck.

‘Thankfully, God was watching over them, because we certainly weren’t.’

Campaigner Claire Mercer, 47, who has urged the government to scrap all smart motorways after her husband, Jason, died on the M1 in 2019, said that it was only a matter of time before lives would be lost on the perilous motorways in a ‘preventable tragedy’.

She told the paper, ‘How many more terrifying system failures and live lane breakdowns are taking place that we do not hear about?

Ms Mercer added that in this case, the driver on the M6 had moved as far left as possible but was ‘left like a sitting duck’ because there was no hard shoulder.

She added, ‘That technology failure meant a breakdown became a mass pile-up. When Dynac and its safety systems fail, smart motorways become dumb motorways.’

The safety systems, which detect malfunctions on roads without a hard shoulder and manage the network’s CCTV to identify individuals in danger, shut down 41 times throughout the course of the previous summer. 

However, there were 52 distinct days between April and August 2023 when there were 541 hours of uninterrupted power supply, with eight sites experiencing outages longer than 24 hours.

Frequent malfunctions in a safety system pose a greater risk than the absence of one. 

Sensible people developed the hard shoulder for a purpose. It didn’t rely on control rooms or computers to keep drivers safe, and sometimes thinking outside the box isn’t the best course of action.

This kind of system is a danger because it means one is too busy looking at the next speed limit, signage, speedometers, and cameras, slamming on the breaks when it changes abs, and looking out for the car behind you instead of keeping your eyes on the road.

The whole purpose of these ‘smart motorways’ is that eventually, they will charge people for every mile they drive; that’s why they don’t want to get rid of them.

The money spent on creating these complex motorways would have been better spent on educating drivers on how to use the lanes that already exist.

It angers me that these motorways were foisted upon us, telling us they were safe when common sense tells us that a dedicated hard shoulder is safer, and our elite could never achieve a decent transport system because they lack even the basic intelligence required to design one.

Michael Gove Leads Furious Criticism After Peer Who Is A ‘Champion For Affordable Housing’ Is Axed For His Attack On Terrorist Group Hamas

Last night, Michael Gove took the lead in criticising a housing association that banned Ian Austin, a former Labour MP, the chairman for making an offensive social media remark about Hamas terrorists.

The Midland Heart housing association, located in Birmingham, said that Lord Austin had been banned due to a comment he posted on X labelling Hamas as “Islamist murderers and rapists.”

The peer has since removed the post, expressed regret, and made it clear that it was a reference to the activities of the terrorist organisation Hamas in Gaza.

However, Midland Heart officials have announced that they will reconvene in two weeks to talk about Lord Austin’s dismissal from the board.

Levelling Up Secretary Mr Gove said he would be demanding an ‘urgent meeting’ and an explanation over the decision, adding that Lord Austin was a ‘champion for affordable housing’ who had ‘spent his career fighting racism’.

In his post, Lord Austin said, ‘Everyone, better safe than sorry: before you go to bed, nip down and check you haven’t inadvertently got a death cult of Islamist murderers and rapists running their operations downstairs. It’s easily done.’

He wrote this after the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees claimed it had been unaware that an operations centre used by Hamas terrorists was built directly under its office in war-torn Gaza.

Midland Heart chief executive Glenn Harris said Lord Austin had damaged the association’s reputation and angered its staff.

Lord Austin said: ‘I am shocked this has happened as a result of politically motivated bullies orchestrating a malicious campaign to smear me by misinterpreting comments and trying to undermine a lifetime’s work fighting racism.’

Heart CEO Glen Harris said Lord Austin had damaged the association’s reputation and angered its staff. Easy solution: sack Harris and the angered staff; they’re not employed to whine. Lord Austin made one classic mistake: he told the truth in a public statement.

In the UK, everyone has been deprived of their right to free speech; it does not exist. The thing is, if we do have free speech, does this mean that we can say anything we like without consequences? Sadly, no country in the world operates like that anymore.

Don’t tell the truth in this country, because the woke brigade will get you.

In this dystopia, it is all about making people afraid to speak their opinions, and then you are interrogated about everything you think about, so you can never tell the truth.

These days, it’s best to be quiet, not ask any questions at all, and avoid challenging anything.

Supposedly, we’re supposed to be living in a free country, but it seems that this freedom is not well received, resulting in numerous consequences. Unfortunately, this situation leads to a complete absence of freedom, and it’s always funny to see when the lefties are frothing at the mouth when someone introduces them to a little reality.

Surprise, surprise—a politician who’s speaking the truth, and then what happens? He gets cancelled.

We need someone who states the truth and is not intimidated by woke, left-wing agitators or religious nuts.

It seems the truth has been banned in favour of lies.

Speaking the truth gets you fired in this dark and twisted society we live in, and one should never apologise, especially if you’re going to get the sack anyway.

Social media has a lot to answer for in this world, and I would close it all down in a heartbeat if I could.

Nerve Agents, Tea Poisoning And Plane Crashes

Alexei Navalny, the leader of the Russian opposition, was discovered dead on Friday; it is believed that he fell ill after taking a stroll around the harsh Arctic prison camp where he had been detained since December.

The specifics of what transpired are still unknown; Russian officials claim they are still investigating the cause of Navalny’s death, while his sympathisers claim they have not received formal confirmation of his passing.

However, supporters—including wife Yulia Navalnaya—were quick to point the finger at Russian President Vladimir Putin, claiming he was behind Navalny’s 2020 fatal nerve agent poisoning.

Putin’s opponents have frequently been the target of assassination attempts throughout his almost 25 years in office. Russian officials have been accused by those close to the victims and the few survivors, although the Kremlin has always denied any participation.

A number of dubious incidents, including tea tainted with polonium, mysterious plane accidents, and sharp drops from windows, have befallen Putin’s opponents over the years.

After returning after recording an investigative piece on corruption in Siberia, Navalny became unwell in August 2020 while travelling from Tomsk to Moscow. He had posted a number of videos on his well-liked YouTube channel recently endorsing the pro-democracy protests taking place in Belarus, an ally.

The plane’s video captured Navalny’s abrupt and severe deterioration, with him sobbing in agony. After the aircraft was forced to land in Omsk, Navalny was taken to a hospital and placed in a coma. He was evacuated to Berlin two days later, where he miraculously recovered.

At first, it was believed he had been poisoned by the Russian state adding toxins to his tea, and his team said he had only stopped in an airport café for a drink in the morning. Later, CNN reported a Russian agent sent to tail Navalny had planted Novichok in his underwear.

From 1971 to 1993, a governmental research laboratory in the Soviet Union produced Novichok chemical agents, which were allegedly the most lethal substances ever created. Charlie Rowley and Dawn Sturgess, two British nationals, were also subjected to them in Salisbury in 2018.

The agent was designed to be undetectable by NATO equipment, potentially causing seizures, loss of consciousness, wheezing, shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, high followed by low blood pressure and profuse sweating.

Although Russia denied poisoning Navalny, authorities and a governmental agency in charge of removing Soviet-era technology would later face sanctions from the US, the EU, and the UK.

Why does Russia allow this murderous thug to rule them? He’s one deranged man, and he should be stopped before he kills everyone.

This man kills at will, and it doesn’t seem that anyone can stop him, but why can’t Vladimir Putin face the same fate as Sadam Hussain? Well, that’s because nobody dares to do it.

The prolonged and agonising traumas that this guy has inflicted upon others are exactly what he deserves.

Of course, the US and UK governments would never kill their political enemies or those who cause them problems. I don’t condone any country or leader doing that, but let’s not pretend we’re lily-white, and this guy makes Henry VIII look like a shy man.

Vladimir Putin ordered the FSB to bomb apartments in 1999, killing over 300 innocent Russians, as part of his ascent to power.

All British politicians, like Blair and Cameron, knew about it. Litvinenko was murdered in London because he wrote a book about it, and our politicians, financiers, and Russian servants have been complicit with Putin for over two decades, Blair and Cameron feting Putin at the G7/G8 meetings was disgusting, and they should all be punished.

‘Threatening’ Police With Meat Cleaver In Paris, Sudanese Man Is Tasered And Killed

A guy who was reportedly menacing French police in Paris with a meat cleaver was shot and killed by them after they first shocked him with a Taser stun gun.

At a tram stop in the capital on Saturday, the man—who has not been named—was reportedly seen waving the weapon and holding a notepad with writing in Arabic.

The man refused to give up the cleaver and approached the police when they got on the scene at approximately three in the morning, according to the prosecution.

According to first reports, four police officers fired their pistols a total of about 20 times, they said, adding that none of the police on the scene were injured.

Prosecutors stated that two investigations had been started into the man’s actions and the police response. The suspect was born in Sudan in 1984 and has no prior criminal history.

When police got on the scene, the suspect had the weapon and was dressed in an Arab-style robe.

The prosecutors allege that he walked over to the officers and refused to put down the cleaver.

According to the prosecution, the four police officers who opened fire were sent to the hospital in a “shocked” state.

Journalist Laurent Obertone reported this morning on X that the incidents happened at the Butte Duhat Rouge station on Saturday at approximately three in the morning.

After being told to halt, the man reportedly ‘brandished a Koranic book’ and threatened the authorities.

CCTV showed a small number of people standing at the station this morning, and a later shot appeared to show investigators marking off the crime scene.

Nowhere is safe from these supposed peace-loving, religious people, but well done to the French police. The British police should be following them in dispatching these nuts, but if the British police did that, there would be protest marches, claims of police brutality, and calls for officers to be sacked, charged, and imprisoned.

It’s simple, the French police don’t muck about; they get the job done. In Great Britain, there would have been utter carnage before the police politely asked them to come with them for counselling and then tuck them up in a comfy hotel.

Why do they all travel to our nation when they detest us so much? Isn’t it time our inept politicians took charge of this situation and removed them all?

We’re lucky they don’t arrive all at once; otherwise, we’d be in danger, but eventually that will happen. You wouldn’t believe how much the NHS spends on interpreters if you went into any maternity ward, given their birth rate.

At least this man won’t ever threaten anyone with a meat cleaver again. One down, millions more to go.

That’s the way to do it—at least they didn’t have to take any prisoners.

What these illegal immigrants seem to forget is that they’re guests in our country, biting the hand that feeds them.

The French police seem to have got it right, and they make the British police look pretty ineffectual and useless.

At least this guy won’t re-offend, but there are plenty of others out there that will.

‘Don’t Get Into Trouble; It Will Bring You A Life Of Misery’

Gangster Ronnie Kray says he regrets his life of crime in never-before-heard audio recorded while the ‘reformed’ hardman was locked up in HMP Broadmoor.

The East End crime boss warns children not to follow in his and his brother Reggie’s footsteps because it will only bring them a ‘life of misery’ in audio recorded in the 1980s.

The interview with Ronnie was recorded by seasoned broadcaster Fred Dinenage for his official Kray Twins book, Our Story.

The recordings were unearthed in the TV journalist’s attic, where they had been since Fred’s visit to Broadmoor four decades ago.

His tapes were almost lost forever as Dinenage’s two daughters, one of whom is MP Caroline Dinenage, nearly taped over them.

Fearsome Ronnie and Reggie ran organised crime in London’s East End during the 1950s and 1960s before they were jailed separately in 1969 and then both moved to Parkhurst maximum security prison in the early 1970s.

Ronnie’s deteriorating mental health meant he was later transferred to Broadmoor Prison, where Dinenage frequently met him throughout the 1980s as the notorious pair’s official biographer.

Ronnie’s instantly recognisable voice can be heard telling youngsters not to turn to a life of crime, pointing at how it turned out for him and his brother.

In it, Ronnie said, ‘Many people who have read our books may think we’ve had a glamorous life, but I advise any young people today not to get into any trouble because it will only bring them a life of misery.

‘I hope people will look again at Broadmoor and the people who are here.

‘I have also made the governor look again at my brother Reg, who has been like this for more than 25 years; it’s time he had justice.

‘Good luck to you, and thank you for your support. I wish I could be with you.

‘One day, with any luck I will be, all the best, Ron Kray.’

Dinenage, an ITV presenter who retired after 60 years in the business, claims to be the only person the twins trusted to recount their story since he was their official biographer.

He released Our Story in 1988 after gaining unparalleled access to the twins, and five years later, he wrote My Story, which is about Ronnie.

Dinenage is now going on tour at theatres in the UK with his show ‘Ronnie, Reggie, and Me with Fred Dinenage’, talking about his time with the nefarious duo.

There was honour among thieves in those days. Women, children, and the elderly were sacrosanct. Today, ignorant yobs will machete you for a couple of quid. Not that I’m glamourising it. Crime is crime, period! But let’s face it, you were safe if you were a pensioner or a vulnerable person with the twins around. Mind you, I’m not sure if I would have let them babysit my grandchildren.

We could use them right now to clean up London, and in a bizarrely unorthodox way, I agree with this because I would rather have the Krays than some Albanian gangsters.

However, they’d mellowed with age; we all do because we just want some peace. Fred Dineage got to meet them a lot later on in their lives, not during their heyday.

Looking at Great Britain now, I dread to wonder what it will be like in another 50 years. However, I won’t be around to see it, but my children and grandchildren will, and I do worry about what will become of them.
