'African tribe' served with eviction notice (travel to UK, set up your own kingdom) - C C - Sep 19, 2025
The institutions introduce the very decolonial ideologies and unauthorized migrant blessings that encourage this kind of annexation of British territory, and then hypocritically try to thwart the reality of the consequences.

'African tribe' served with another eviction notice
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cd9yjkngyklo
A self-styled "African tribe" have been served with another eviction notice after moving from their previous camp to a new site in the Scottish Borders.
The so-called Kingdom of Kubala were evicted from privately-owned land near Jedburgh on Tuesday - but simply moved over a small fence and set up another base nearby.
Scottish Borders Council began legal action to evict them after establishing that the new camp was on land owned by the local authority. The group have now been told that they have until noon on Monday to leave.
Jedburgh councillor Scott Hamilton, deputy leader of Scottish Borders Council, said if the group do not leave by that point the council would consider its options -including seeking an order from a sheriff.
Ghanaian Kofi Offeh, 36, and Jean Gasho, 42, who is originally from Zimbabwe, first arrived in the Jedburgh area in the spring. Describing themselves as King Atehehe and Queen Nandi, they set up camp on a hillside above the town in the Scottish Borders.
They were joined by "handmaiden" Kaura Taylor, from Texas, who calls herself Asnat. The group claimed ancestral rights to land and insisted that the Kingdom of Kubala had been born.
Mr Offeh previously said he was "not afraid" of the warrant for their eviction. In a post on Facebook, they said: "The Kingdom of Kubala can never be destroyed."

Absolutely fabulous. The overall weak-willed government is incapable of obstructing migrant occupation, anyway. These individuals are just annexing land stolen from the Kubala Kingdom four centuries ago. What's the problem with rectifying those past Western atrocities?

'African tribe' continues to mock authorities' attempts at eviction
https://news.sky.com/story/african-tribe-camping-in-scottish-woods-stays-put-despite-councils-eviction-deadline-13436307
EXCERPT: A self-styled "African tribe" that is camping in woodland in Scotland is staying put despite an eviction notice from the local council.
[...] Scott Hamilton, deputy leader of Scottish Borders Council, had said that "nobody is above the law and no matter how long this takes you can be guaranteed we will not cease".
He added the group had repeatedly failed to engage with the council and legal proceedings which would enable an eviction had begun.
The members of the self-proclaimed "kingdom" have said they are reclaiming land that was stolen from their ancestors 400 years ago.
In a Facebook post on Friday, the group said: "The Kingdom of Kubala can never be destroyed."
A spokesperson for Scottish Borders Council said: "The legal process to remove the occupants from the council's land has commenced and officers will proceed through the next steps as quickly as possible."

Pretty sure the statute is up.
On top of that there are some issues with their timeline mentioned elsewhere online.

According the left, there is no statute of limitations on colonialism.

Lmao, they still have to buy the land... even if it is *theirs*. And they have to prove ancestry too, like through DNA or fossilized remains. I don't suppose there are any burial grounds on that land?

If you do "land acknowledgements," essentially admitting to stealing the land, why would it be wrong for someone else to come steal from the thief?

If the Kubala legal/history people have no documentation showing land (any land) isn't formally claimed by the natives they have every right to claim it as their own - this has always been the way things are done.

They can only claim land if they can reside on it for long enough, like a squatter. Which means they have to be on the land and have an unbroken usage of it to be able to claim and only then if the land itself doesn't have an active owner. I mean they could just move around every time they get evicted until they find a piece they don't get evicted from and squat it. I would however take years to prove they have the right to be there and there is always the chance that out of the blue someones claim will be greater and they'd be back to squatting somewhere else.

Police still 'unsure' how to remove the 'lost African tribe' ignoring eviction orders from a Scots wood
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15134273/Police-unsure-remove-lost-African-tribe-ignoring-eviction-orders-Scots-wood.html
EXCERPTS: Police chiefs accused of a soft-touch approach to the ‘lost African tribe’ ignoring eviction orders in a Scots woods insist they won’t take sides in the dispute - because they’re not sure what the law is.
For the past month, the self-styled Kubala kingdom has been defying attempts to get them to move on from public and private land in Jedburgh, Roxburghshire.
The Trespass (Scotland) Act 1865 makes it an offence to occupy or set up a camp on private property without permission.
But Scottish Borders Council is having to spend thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money on court orders to try to remove the group because police won’t intervene and report them to the Procurator Fiscal.
Yesterday (Thurs), the town’s Conservative councillor Scott Hamilton told a meeting of the local authority that the group is seemingly committing trespass, hate crimes and breaches of human trafficking laws with impunity.
And he warned Police Scotland divisional chiefs that their inaction risks inflaming local tensions.
He said: ‘The public that I represent...deserve answers [about] why the police will not enforce the Trespass Act of 1865.
‘Every Scottish landowner across this country must be absolutely terrified, knowing that anybody could come and camp on their land and their only option is to go via the [civil] court process, which is a cost to the landowner, which is a cost to society.
[...] The ‘tribe’ produces daily videos for its social media channels and has set up an account for cash donations from the public.
Crimes under the Trespass (Scotland) Act are punishable with a £200 fine per person.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: ‘We are aware concerns have been raised in connection with those living on the site. Repeated attempts have been made by officers and partner agencies to engage with those in-volved. Officers will continue to engage and address any issues raised.’ (MORE - missing details)
