This is truly chilling. From superinjunctions to new laws, your government is stopping you from seeing what's actually happening in your own country. I actually can't believe how awful this is.
🚨Our fears appear to have been vindicated on the very first day of the Online Safety Act's enactment. Some footage of protests taking place this evening against illegal immigration is unavailable on X for at least some UK users, with a warning about a restriction due to ‘local…
On asylum hotels and Epping: Lords from all sides were keen to condemn violence and misinformation, with no recognition of the legitimate concerns of locals or their fury about being branded as far-right thugs. The Minister's tone-deaf and aggressive reply suggests the government…
Last night I attended a Lambeth safer neighbourhood meeting. There were two police officers and a Chairwoman on a panel and a room of community 'representatives.' It was obvious that the police have little concern regarding the causes of crime. I was mobbed by the room when I…
Two decades of tireless work restoring habitat & creating eco-mooring sites (so boats' anchors don't tear seagrass out by the roots) by @seahorsecharity & @NOCnews, has paid off with a spectacular summer of seahorses off the Dorset coast this year 🌊 share.google/EeKyHpTRJ3QcDw…
What a wonderful video of a wonderful bird. I love starlings so much 🥰
Ok, here’s an unusual post. There was no wind, and all these starlings were lined up chattering away, so stuck my camera on the tripod and filmed. 😄

I'm calling on the UK Government to stop the proposed changes to Biodiversity Net Gain, which put nature recovery at risk just as the system starts to work. Nature needs time to thrive, not more setbacks. action.rspb.org.uk/page/174378/ac…
Mr @Keir_Starmer & @YvetteCooperMP what will it take for you to listen & act? You have a reckless arrogance & an inability to read the room that will hopefully🙏sooner than later see you removed from office & allow someone else a chance to protect this nation something that you…
London is no longer safe for women. In 2024, more than 123,000 violent crimes against women and girls were reported to the Met. Arrests and charges for rape and serious sexual offences more than doubled.
Manchester airport police attacks trial. Judge Neil Flewitt has told the jury the two Pakistanis are of ‘good character’ and as they have no past convictions “it is less likely that they acted as the prosecution allege” He’s basically saying the police have lied. This same…
Can I suggest a name for Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana’s new party? Britain Last. That should make it clear.

🚨NEW: A metal fence has been erected around the luxury hotel in the Canary Wharf amid protests [@JackHadders]
Throughout yesterday, residents from across #WestonsuperMare submitted clear, reasonable objections to the new mosque in the town centre. But as these objections appeared, dozens were quietly deleted. One by one, they were removed, with no explanation. By late last night, 80…
I'm absolutely convinced that Britain is being run by people who want to destroy it.
Protest. Protest. Protest. We have to fight this or we’re lost forever.
In Saudi Arabia, illegal migrants are imprisoned, fined & deported with no legal process In Qatar, they are detained & deported without appeal In Australia, they are detained offshore with no chance of settling In Britain? We put them up in luxury hotels with welfare and…
Stop me if I’m sounding mad, please… But why don’t we just stop treating illegal migrants better than actual taxpaying British men and women? Is that such an extreme position to take?
So as a concerned parent of a 16 year old young lady, according to @Keir_Starmer I am a 'mindless thug' - Keir, I served 13 years in the armed forces for this country. I am not a mindless thug - if you want a face to face discussion then please feel free to contact me - I am as…
A sentiment shared by the vast majority of people in Britain.
I'd like to see Starmer condemning sexual assaults by migrants rather than condemning protesters.
