As such thank you to all of the accounts that remain vigilant on the false narrative, everyone who is helping rebut it directly like @sundersays.bsky.social @drmatthewsweet.bsky.social and @shayan86.bsky.social and everyone at @bylinetimes.bsky.social + all the people standing up to the far-right
always good to check the edit history on Twitter as they can sometimes be revealing What Douglas Carswell has written today is awful bad in its final form, but his original tweet was worse He's not correcting a typo "From Epping to the sea, let's make England immigrant free" just showed his hand

OMG
He’s literally an immigrant
Maybe because he’s an immigrant (to the US) himself? As such, of course, whoever the UK allows in makes no difference to him and he should mind his own fecking business.
Wowzers.
The Islamophobia is grim but the additional hypocrisy Carswell being born in Uganda where his parents were working + he's been living in Mississippi since 2020 and considers himself an immigrant in the USA... yeah, wowsers
![s/s Facebook post [Image of huge American flag hanging down ] Douglas Carswell 29 Dec 2024 I moved to America four years ago today! Thanks for having this immigrant.

Consider signing. Pam Bondi & Ashley Moody corruption. Bondi & Moody's corrupt FL legacy qualified them for national office. www.change.org/p/pam-bondi-...
Maybe the US will deport him.
OK, Douglas Carswell was born in England but his family were based in Uganda until he was ~17
Seems like Douglas Carswell believes it's ok for white Anglo people to live where they like, but not anyone who doesn't fit his ideal. And he's starting with Muslims, but that immigrant comment shows us that even if he did remove them all from England then he'd just move onto the next group he hates
Grammar: I am welcome You are an expat They are immigrants.
💩🏠
While the post and the idea is vile enough, the appropriation of "from the river to the sea" is distinctly cynical ( if taken literally Epping to the sea is a chunk of south Essex though I doubt his tweet merits any further serious thought than "Doug hates foreigners and encourages violence")
No immigrants (in Basildon specifically)
Had he been arrested yet? If not why not?
He emigrated to the USA in Dec 2020
Douglas Carswell is deranged
