Yes! Finally somebody said it. There must be a public inquiry into the Chagos Islands saga--and if necessary a criminal investigation. We must take ACTION. ✅Watch the 30 video; read the brief statement. 🔄If you agree, retweet and share ✅Start using the hashtag #ChagosInquiry
I'm calling for a public inquiry into the government's actions in ceding sovereignty of the Chagos Islands - and if necessary a criminal investigation. See the @SDPhq statement below:
Yes. It's seriously difficult to lay a glove on these women. The media and state will try to tarnish the whole thing as Far Right agitation, but even they can't manage that with the Hero Mothers of Epping.
The mothers of Epping are proving that localised parent-led demonstrations against the impact of the small-boats crisis on the safety of women and girls can influence our politics. It is a model of effective protest to be replicated. My latest @GBNEWS. gbnews.com/opinion/epping…
This is a great talk by Chollet about the path to AGI and why scaling alone (and not even scaling + CoT reasoning) will get us there. Video link below. He discusses abstraction, symbolic reasoning, continuous vs discrete optimization (program search), and many other important…
Had this been a Muslim or Hindu preacher, he would have been left alone. That's obvious. These brave people attacking him would have become suddenly less brave had a young Muslim been debating Islamic values with members of the public. But listen with the sound turned up. Listen…
Young Christian attacked in Camden for debating Christian values with members of the public. How are these extremists allowed to assault Christians with impunity? @YoungBobTPUK
Faisal Islam: Trump's tough tariff tactics is getting results. Who’d have thought? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Many such cases.
When I was 16, in 1970, high on acid with my head between the speakers listening to Paranoid, it was very good. After that, not so much...
Thanks for writing this. MMaybe his debility and helplessness after a lifetime of destructive behaviours represented something universal to ageing boomers, but he is, or should be, a culturally marginal figure of little serious importance.
A few weeks ago Rory Kamala-will-win easy Stewart & Alistair 45 minutes Campbell said my blog on the deep state fears about ethnic violence were 'far right conspiracy theory'. Today National Security Secretariat briefings to Cabinet are reported p1 in MSM. Remember, the…
Lee Nichols beat up a deaf 72-year-old man outside a pub. He had 124 previous convictions for 226 offences including shoplifting and violence. Just 21 months prison. He’ll be out in less than a year. More crime MUST mean more time.
*Ozzy Osborne, a realistic obit.* Ozzy Osborne and his band, Black Sabbath, are hugely overrated. They produced no more than a handful of good songs. Paranoid was a legitimate rock classic; War Pigs was excellent. And, to be fair, Ozzy’s pained, spectral vocals were at least as…
British politicians claim to be against foreign interference in British politics. They love to raise the spectre of Russian electoral meddling or Chinese influence in universities to scare us all. But the reality is that they do not care at all about foreign interference. Take…
Look how many “Schools of Sanctuary” groups there are: It’s a scheme to welcome refugees. Leads back to the charity @CityofSanctuary, which shares funders with HOPE not Hate, including a huge US funder. All part of the Far-Left ecosystem & turning UK into open-border hellhole.
Yes, my impression is that we are not far from people starting to raise posses to protect the South Coast and wildcat strikes against the machinery bringing migrants ashore. I do not think that this sort of civil disturbance would end well. It could in fact metastasise. The state…
A lovely guy in our town said, re the migrant crisis, “We were talking in the pub and we think men like us will end up having to go down to defend our southern lborder.” This is where we are. A deaf political class has ignored the views of the people far too long.
Zelensky and Yermak dismantled one of the US/EU's primary means of granular leverage over Ukraine politics, the anti-corruption bureaus. This loss of leverage & local allies helps explain the western media's recent turn against Zelensky. x.com/Tatarigami_UA/…
A major and unpopular decision, opposed by many in Ukraine, was adopted by the Parliament: changes to the functioning of two independent anti-corruption bodies. Essentially, they’ve been shifted from somewhat independent institutions to ones subservient to the Presidential Office
This is a hugely valuable thread on why statistics that show crime is falling should not be trusted: the methodology is ill suited to this type of data collection. @NoahCarl90
Fraser has blocked me so I can’t QT, but everyone knows crime isn’t in fact, going down. So let’s explore how to lie with statistics, a rare effort 🧵
The EU has imposed sanctions on Chinese banks for working with Russia. Let me get this straight. The EU cut itself off from its main source of energy, Russia. It is on the brink of a trade war with the US. It is now trashing its relations with China. Maybe it's not Them, it's EU
This is worth reading from @rakibehsan. The conclusion to draw is that Labour is in serious and as yet undiagnosed electoral trouble. Its traditional coalition is under pressure from three sides. First, the younger student radical types prefer the purer left Greens; those who are…
With next year’s local elections taking place in cities such as Birmingham and Bradford, towns such as Blackburn and Oldham, and London boroughs such as Newham, all signs now point towards Labour suffering an electoral bloodbath. My latest @unherd. unherd.com/newsroom/labou…
Kaleido-crisis! I am going to have to steal that.
I was on a space with @FUDdaily and I delivered a bleak assessment of our prospects and I think I undersold it. I hope there is a normal political solution to our kaleido-crisis, but I just don’t see it. Older forms of politics loom, and I don’t put much stock in optimism.
Remember, folks, we put these people in power in Syria. There were triumphant spreads in the Guardian; CNN ran reports about how oppression and evil was over; Rory Stewart and Alistair Campbell went to give a fawning interview to the leader of these people.
Why? The Tories need Young Turks with fresh ideas and a determination to remodel the administration of the state for the 21st Century—not old hacks like CleverlyGPT, who will do nothing but spit out anodyne platitudes based on whatever prompts the Civil Service gives him.
EXCL: Kemi Badenoch is reshuffling her shadow cabinet today. And she has persuaded James Cleverly, defeated leadership candidate and former Foreign and Home Secretary, to make a frontbench comeback
Let's be honest, until Ukraine was useful to the US/EU everyone was quite aware of what a criminally corrupt cesspit of skulduggery it was. Then it all got memory holed, along with the Guardian stories about the Azov, the history of Bandera etc. Inconvenient truths.
Obviously, this is true. But please don't be fooled by Mr Cotton's propaganda either. He's trying to drag the Americans into another regime change war. He has learned nothing.
Iran’s “space program” is nothing more than a ridiculous charade designed to hide their efforts to develop long-range ballistic missiles to attack America and our allies. Don’t be fooled by their propaganda. apnews.com/article/iran-s…
