We will establish a new U.K. supermarket chain ‘National Self Service’ (NSS) which will offer everybody in the U.K. access to free food and beverages at the point of shopping.
There are some conditions to this pledge:
- You can only enter an NSS store with agreement from your General Provisioner (GP). You cannot see your GP face-to-face to discuss your shopping needs. Call or email them explaining your position. You should get a reply within a few weeks. You are entitled to get an appointment at the store within 18 weeks, but waiting lists can be longer.
- When you arrive at your assigned store, you will usually need to wait for a trolley to become available. At busy times, this could take several hours. Other customers may be given priority over you.
- When you enter the store, you may find the produce you wanted is not available today or is not of the standard you expect. You may be offered an alternative product or be given a new time to visit.
- If you can afford to pay for your supermarket goods yourself, you can opt to see a private GP shopping assistant. They will guide you to a non-NSS store, ensuring you receive all your goods quickly and conveniently.
- We aim to have 1.5 million people working in the NSS, as more staff are bound to deliver better service. This is twice the number of staff that the current ‘Big 4’ supermarkets employ. Many of the staff will not be working in the store itself. Rest assured, they are all heroes and play a vital role.
- To reach our target staffing numbers, we will recruit specialists from around the world. We expect to welcome a quarter of a million overseas staff and their families into the U.K.
- The Government will fund the NSS from public spending, with an initial budget of £160 billion. At the same time, the Government will introduce a Supermarket Insurance levy, paid by employers and workers, totalling 20% of the income of the 20 million workers of Britain. The other two-thirds of the population will pay nothing.
It couldn’t happen, could it?

Apology not accepted. The top brass were and still are on board with the aims, and will have known the general drift if not the fine detail. Apology to the whistleblower not accepted either as their first instinct was to silence and punish. They got caught but will do it all again tomorrow more carefully.
My thoughts, exactly: They’re dishing out some money the government collected from the taxpayer and will henceforth cover their tracks more carefully. The mere fact that the air force has a diversity plan, IOW, that objective requirements are lower for the right kind of applicants, should be sufficient grounds to get rid of everyone involved with this starting with the top brass. Richard Knigthton is responsible for ensuring that something like this doesn’t happen, not for apologizing after his subordinates where caught breaking the law for the personal benefit of applicants to their liking while harming national security as a side effect.
Pushing the boundaries for positive action implies that they were well aware that they were acting illegally but hoped to get away with it in order to create a precedent for more law breaking with damaging side effects by other departments.
Ridiculous. People should be hired purely on their suitability for the role and nothing else. Speaking of diversity, more on the delusional fibber, Sadiq Khan and the state of the UK;
”Sadiq Khan’s claim that London was “built by migrants” is bizarre and without foundation, unless he means to refer to the Germanic tribes – Angles, Saxons, Frisians, and Jutes – who arrived in England two thousand years ago, and whose major legacy was linguistic: the Anglo-Saxon that developed into English. These tribes did not “build London.” Unlike the U.S., Great Britain is not a country of immigrants, and there was little immigration until the mid-20th century, when migrants started to arrive from the Caribbean in the 1950s, and then, in the 1960s, the migration of Pakistanis began. The Pakistani presence has been an unalloyed catastrophe. Many of them arrived – and continue to do so — as economic migrants, eager to take advantage of the full panoply benefits offered by the British welfare state, including free or subsidized housing, free medical care, free education, unemployment benefits (even without having held jobs in the U.K.), family allowances, and more.
Muslim migrants have had difficulty integrating into a society of Infidels, whom they are taught to regard as “the most vile of created beings.” Their unemployment rate is three times that of the British. Their rates of criminality far exceed those of the native British, and of other, but non-Muslim, immigrants as well. Muslims make up 7% of the population, but 30% of those in prison. Perhaps most unsettling has been the deliberate debauching of many thousands of English girls by grooming gangs of Pakistanis, who first ply the girls, many of them in their early teens, with drink and drugs, engage in sex with them, and then pass them around as sexual toys to be used, repeatedly raped, by dozens of fellow Pakistanis. The police often chose to look the other way, afraid that they would be accused of “racism” if they started to round up Pakistanis.”

A tenuous link to the article being; just as you should face no discrimination in getting any job and nobody should be overlooked or turned down based on race etc, the same would naturally apply to criminals. The law should prosecute the person who commits the offence, irrespective of race etc. Not turn a blind eye and give a free pass to reoffend because police are performing some sort of tick box exercise, thereby basically enabling and encouraging the criminals to just keep at it. Have people not learnt anything from the whole Jimmy Saville fiasco?!
Should it be concluded that, for the purposes of justice, it was an advantage that Saville wasn’t a migrant?
That’s a generic lie. It’s mirrored by the German Greens claiming that Turkish immigrants were really responsible for rebuilding Germany and reacquiring general prosperty after the second world war when – in reality – the so-called Wirtschaftswunder happened in the 1950s while so-called Gastarbeiter (guest workers) weren’t imported in numbers before the 1960s. Why did none of these supposed extraeuropean Übermenschen ever accomplish anything noteworthy in their native countries?
In the late 19th century, Chinatown in London consisted of just one street, Limehouse Causeway. At the time, the population of London was about 3 million.
In the 1911 census, the number of people in England and Wales with the surname of Patel numbered just 11 people.
In the late 1930s, a newspaper article called ‘The Foreign Bits of Britain’ related how a small country estate in Hertfordshire had been purchased by a German count in 1901 to be used as a ‘farm colony’ where German immigrants who had fallen on hard times could go to live and work at their trade to earn enough money to return home. The several hundred men who had lived there before the Great War had, by the 1930s, become a handful of old people. That was the extent of the ‘foreign bits of Britain’ that this newspaper could identify.
Today, in Tooting, South London, there is a blue plaque on a building which ‘celebrates the migrants who built Tooting’. Photographs of this area from the 1950s show no obvious migrants. Admiral Lord Nelson referred to the estate of the Hamiltons, not far from Tooting, as ‘paradise Merton’. The area was built up in the late 19th century and, as the 1911 census shows, was inhabited by lower middle class tradesmen, clerks and their families.
But all this is irrelevant. The claim that London, or any part of it, was built by migrants is not an assertion about the past. It is a claim to current ownership.
How do you square the circle of practising affirmative action whilst not discriminating against those you’re not affirming? Like everything nowadays, the policy appears incoherent.
You can’t and everyone knows that but they don’t say it.
So the result is that officials must prepare abject apologies both for not selecting minorities AND discriminating against majorities, and trot them out as occasion demands, without meaning either.
Likewise when an MP offends trans activists, they fill in a boilerplate apology form and mean nothing, because they would as readily apologise for insensitivity to de-transitioners. And in this way, basic morality soon disappears from a nation.
The primary cause of this is the Equalities Act 2010 brought in by Harriet Harman and immediately adopted by the following Tory government. Bin this and we could return to leading a normal life whereby we can call anybody names without fear of prosecution.
Just imagine for a minute that the discrimination had been against black men.
And then try and imagine that an apology would be all that was required.
Air Chief Sir Richard Knighton should resign or be sacked.
