Just the worst people imaginable: hurling the most insane, deliberately inflammatory drivel they can and then, at the slightest sign of pushback, hurling themselves squealing to the pitch clutching their shins, rolling around pretending to be injured, shouting for a red card.

You should ask yourself whether wacky theories about Bolshevik intellectuals conspiring with the lower races to pollute the youth and undermine the fatherland with degenerate, alien ideologies sound at all familiar, and if they have any particular historical resonance

In UK, environmental protections are waived aside for maize, with ministers listening to lobbyists not scientists—as usual.

Someone should make Andrew "Toaster Reviewer" Ellson read the newspaper he "works" for.
I totally agree with The Times’ view here. It’s time to reclaim our streets so that children can be active and gain independence.

More councils should close off streets to encourage outdoor games

Where are all those Starmer defenders saying it couldn’t be true because it was in the Telegraph
Do we now have to wait and see what effect the £35 billion cut will have on people who are already struggling before we can hold Starmer & co to account?

Narrator: No one receives benefits based on self diagnosis. And yes the UK can afford it but should be improving people's lives so it'snot such a massive issue.

In 2018 we left the EU's Water Regulation body and their massive fines.

Then sewage dumping increased 20x.

Before Brexit we had some of the cleanest water in Europe.

Now it is by far the dirtiest.

Every time I've advised orgs on inclusion, especially on LGBTQ+ inclusion, I've said they need a detailed plan for how to respond when the attacks come.

DO NOT put your LGBTQ staff into the public eye if you are not ready to stand with them and don't have a plan to support them. This isn't a game.
Well this sucks. Museum caves in in response to a hostile article in the local press written by a former Restore Trust director.

If you’re gonna have these initiatives at your museum, you need to have some backbone too.

The Duopoly is the problem. Both parties work for billionaires who have rigged the system and stolen all the wealth while homelessness is at an all time high and genocide is being committed abroad. Stop voting for the Duopoly and start organising around economic justice.

UK finance Industry deregulation is dangerous.

Post-2008 crash reforms reversed.

Consumer protection weakened, reckless speculation inevitable, asset prices will inflate, bubble will burst.

City shuns long-term investment, won't fuel economic growth.
