We\u2019re clear there are no more emergency measures to do. We just need to make sure we use all of the operational levers we have,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>As we previously <a href=\"https:\/\/modernity.news\/2025\/03\/04\/government-advisor-warns-uk-is-heading-for-civil-war\/\">highlighted<\/a>, Professor David Betz, a top academic who has advised both the US and UK governments, warned recently that the UK is \u201cexplosively configured\u201d for mass civil unrest.<\/p>\n<p>Betz said that the government is undergoing a \u201cdestruction of legitimacy\u201d as a result of increasing anger at their inability to defend the border from a deluge of illegal immigrants, in addition to their inability to protect children from grooming gangs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you want to create domestic turmoil in a society, then what the British government has been doing is almost textbook exactly what you would do,\u201d said the professor.<\/p>\n<p>Betz said that the situation is now \u201ctoo far gone\u201d and that a national eruption which will outstrip last summer\u2019s riots is likely to happen within 5 years.<\/p>\n<p><em>Your support is crucial in helping us defeat mass censorship.
