In the UK, there is a long-standing tradition (recently championed again by various social groups and thinkers) that "true" patriotism isn't found in a flag, but in the National Health Service, the BBC, or local community libraries.</span></div><br /><div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Nanum Pen Script;">Follow my cartoons on</span></div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="http://instagram.com/northmantoon"><span style="font-family: Nanum Pen Script;">instagram.com/northmantoon</span></a></div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="http://cara.app/captainkirt"><span style="font-family: Nanum Pen Script;">cara.app/captainkirt</span></a></div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="http://threads.net/CaptainKirt"><span style="font-family: Nanum Pen Script;">threads.net/CaptainKirt</span></a></div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Nanum Pen Script;"><a href="http://bsky.app/profile/northman.kirt.me.uk"><span>bsky.app/profile/n</span>orthman.kirt.me.uk</a></span></div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Nanum Pen Script;">and&nbsp;<a href="http://facebook.com/kirt-toons">facebook.com/kirt-toons</a></span></div><div style="font-family: &quot;Special Elite&quot;; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><div></div><div><div></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLfPp_1H5l3WUEBZ5sLt-VGO4xoBFR4dG9bZP9RIXqN7YW2UyRyTwpznzf3PK1YnWTjPnLa1WJ29jS3-8aqPEWlIPpm5XDyWqWfihR-lfA6JDFNk_FsHwZ8O_80AV2CDK2LbdB7ao3ewDXIqOb1b0ZeSX0egLw_U5VeFHzz5vhSzudSl_pHctsSaE-sxao/s1752/Illustration2.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1752" data-original-width="1752" height="59" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLfPp_1H5l3WUEBZ5sLt-VGO4xoBFR4dG9bZP9RIXqN7YW2UyRyTwpznzf3PK1YnWTjPnLa1WJ29jS3-8aqPEWlIPpm5XDyWqWfihR-lfA6JDFNk_FsHwZ8O_80AV2CDK2LbdB7ao3ewDXIqOb1b0ZeSX0egLw_U5VeFHzz5vhSzudSl_pHctsSaE-sxao/w59-h59/Illustration2.png" width="59" /></a></div></div></div></div>https://northman.kirt.me.uk/2026/03/340-patriot-pt3.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (CaptainKirt)2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654645497601313358.post-7018216108993850018Tue, 24 Mar 2026 09:29:00 +00002026-03-24T09:29:00.120+00:00gammonImmigrationpolitics<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl1EDghszKPSvK8F8Vq4VlNpTgac7vW7PTD_Wlm2T8HfEFuzpY14PpppGypfBkLGuVq0-uAT2Ub45hs-A_EdoAza8ZUQnP2qFqiwxDcpRQA0-IZVjAPgZl3xetc5ZMC-xITpzEHqKIpKNMUZcZ9o76UsvVH01ILxzutTYIGIeZQqFG5DVR1Nf-AsX7Eb0f/s2400/339promo.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2398" data-original-width="2400" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl1EDghszKPSvK8F8Vq4VlNpTgac7vW7PTD_Wlm2T8HfEFuzpY14PpppGypfBkLGuVq0-uAT2Ub45hs-A_EdoAza8ZUQnP2qFqiwxDcpRQA0-IZVjAPgZl3xetc5ZMC-xITpzEHqKIpKNMUZcZ9o76UsvVH01ILxzutTYIGIeZQqFG5DVR1Nf-AsX7Eb0f/s320/339promo.png" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Special Elite; font-size: large;">The "Patriot" saga continues, and let’s just say our binocular-wielding friend has overlooked a very fundamental detail.&nbsp; It’s one thing to be "on guard," but it helps if you actually know where you’re standing.

To the man with the binoculars, the migrant is a distant threat to be monitored and repelled—a 'crisis' on the horizon. Yet, the moment he feels a pang of hunger, that same migrant becomes an essential, invisible cog in his daily life. There is a profound irony in using the vantage point of 'coastal defence' to track a boat, only to turn around and accept a pizza from a delivery rider who likely shares the same origin, language, or journey as those being watched through the lens.
