Downes told viewers Britain needs a political force “prepared to go into territory that is largely, especially in the eyes of the mainstream, viewed as being beyond the pale”. He went further:

“A lot of the people who have come here legally, especially over the last 30 years, and those who have been born here, they don’t belong here. And they do need to go back to the… countries of their ancestors. And that is the righteous and moral thing. And I think we are going to see that idea enter mainstream discourse in literally the next couple of years.”

Well this guy is a fucking nutter.

What would be the English version of Aryans, in the Nazi Germany sense and not the origin of the term? That’s what this Charlie Clowns, sorry, Downes character seems to be aspiring to.

I’m deliberately saying English. I’m sure the Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish have their fair share of idiots, but to me the proportion of genuine knobheads in England seems to be much higher. Admittedly, I live in the English AFL/UKIP/Brexit/Reform heartland, which might skew my view somewhat. Still, they are knobheads the lot.

It's the remigration policy espoused by the AfD for ages. But now they seem brave enough to say what they would only admit in private.
