Stunningly, British news personality Leo Kearse managed to boil the latest bit of woke insanity out of the UK down to just a couple of sentences;
“Northumbria police are being anti-immigrant. But don’t worry, it’s against white people.”
That’s right… Great Britain, the same nation whose so-called Conservative Party leans even further left than Bernie Sanders, is coming down hard on illegal aliens.
But just one problem; they’re just 1,000 years too late.
In the northeast English town of Jarrow, it wasn’t the hard-core leftie Labour Party, nor was it the British chapter of BLM. It was the local po-po who red-carded a statue of two Vikings. Well, actually received an “amber” warning.
Why? Glad you asked.
The two-Viking statue just might encourage Right-wing sentiments in modern man. Note that the Northumbria Police warn that the statue MAY have connections to “far-Right symbolism and Nordic mythology.”
Two problems with this quote;
- A walking stick, fairy story, puffy clouds, etc., MAY have connections to any given political leaning. All that’s in the eye of the beholder.
- Why does a branch of the British government give a hoot-in-hell about Nordic mythology? That’s literally none of their business.

Jack Montgomery of Breitbart.com reports;
England’s Northumbria Police force has flagged a statue of two Vikings in Jarrow, England, for possible “associations with far-Right symbolism”.
The woke police force gave the Vikings an “amber” rating — the worst they handed out — in a “review of South Tyneside’s statues and landmarks to determine if any have links to slavery or oppressive behaviour” initiated by South Tyneside Council, a municipal government dominated by the left-wing Labour Party, which holds 41 of its 54 seats, with the even further-left Greens being the next-largest party.
The “Viking Statue” and nearby “Viking Precinct” shopping centre were flagged for potential “connections / associations with far-Right symbolism and Nordic mythology”, according to The Telegraph.
A statue of Queen Victoria, the United Kingdom’s most famous and, until the recently-departed Queen Elizabeth II, longest-reigning monarch, was also rated “amber”, in its case for “links to Empire/Colonialism”.
