I've been Charley on social media for over a decade & I've also had IRL harassment so no personal photo or surname on my profile.

But if you ever want to know what I'm like & who I am, in 2018 I did a video for Final Say for All about me & why Brexit was personal:

The Government coming off X is the bare minimum and realistically at this point I think we should seriously be looking at taking enforcement action against the company, in line with the Online Safety Act and VAWG Strategy. I will be pressing the Government on this when Parliament returns next week.

don't think about a perforated ulcer
Aspirin is an effective medication for reducing the chances of a second or subsequent strokes in individuals with a history of a previous stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA)
Trump admits to taking more aspirin than his docs recommend: “They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart. I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart. Does that make sense?”

Curtis Yarvin, JD Vance’s friend & ideological influence, ended 2025 by claiming “only Hitler spoke the truth” about “too many subjects” & “Hitler was a genius.”

Extremism isn’t fringe on the right. Once marginal online extremists like Yarvin are influential at the highest levels of government.

One thing that the government could do easily and simply is withdraw from X. There’s no downside.

Recent census shows 13.9% of the U.S. population is foreign-born.
That's around 46 million people.

Ok, everyone, what book is sacred enough to you to get sworn in on?
Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

Mayor Mamdani has nullified every executive order issued by Eric Adams after he struck his corrupt bargain with Trump to secure dismissal of the indictment against him.

5. Under the Trump administration, the US is no longer an ally of Europe or Canada, it has aligned itself with Russia.

It's official: Bulgaria is in the euro-zone.

This is not a protocol. It is a feeling.
In this sense, the euro is not just an economic solution...

Without raising her voice or insulting the president, Bishop Mariann Budde preached the Gospel. So, naturally, Trump lost it.

This is a great start to 2026, I hope that Zohran Mamdani will be able to achieve his full potential as New York Mayor and bring a new age to New York City.
“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”

In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.
