U.K. Authorities Prove They Believe Racism Is the Worst ‘Crime’ of Them All – Twitchy

It didn’t take long for the United Kingdom to go from ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ to ‘bad words are illegal.’

In less than a century, the world’s greatest empire has decided that there is no bigger crime than being ‘racist’ — which is why they ignore actual crime and focus on Orwellian thought-policing instead.

Case in point:

This kind of sums up where we are in this country.

A desperate shopkeeper almost driven to bankruptcy because of thieves stealing from his shop puts this sign up for his customers.

Only then does he get a visit from the police.

There is nothing racial about the term ‘scumbags.’ The fact that the shoplifters happen to fit a certain demographic group (and pointing that out) isn’t racist.

Seriously, UK is fukked.

Seriously.

Travel there while you can. Soon, it will be a no-go nation.

The authorities are like lazy parents. They don’t care about justice; they just want quiet.

A great way of putting it.

Where’s the lie?

When will police actually deal with criminals and not the victims

— James H (@Skepticmindd) August 9, 2025

Never.

That’s racist, and we can’t have that.

I’ve always been amazed at how a lot of UK citizens seem to not want to offend people. The fact is, a lot of people need to be offended and not little cry babies.

I’ve been offended by something almost daily all my life. I would not trade the First Amendment for less offense. https://t.co/tpMlpfreDs

Never.

My old boss won a statewide election back in the day on the message “the wrong people are afraid”

I invite any limey pol interested on running winning & fixing to run on the same slogan https://t.co/pfzVIdlSCB

They’d win in a landslide.

Anarcho-tyranny in action. The cops are happy to punish the poor shopkeeper who is being victimized, but don’t seem that interested in punishing the actual criminals. https://t.co/QKVqRxmsvT

Decline is a choice.

It’s in English. All of the sudden, they no longer need a translator? https://t.co/M71AC4NOFi

Weird, huh?

Now in UK:
“No offending shoplifters”

It’s like all the looniest Monty Python skits have come true. https://t.co/8N3Utfk0rv

But reality is far less funny.
