In the debate around amplified street preaching on the Moor, the voices of those most central to this argument have, somewhat ironically, gone unheard.

But what moves someone to preach? And would they be willing to keep it down?

Growth has weakened further since the pandemic.

In fact, as of Q3 2025, the economy has taken six years to grow as much as we would have expected in roughly seven months on the previous pre-pandemic trend.

If you didn't already think Trump was a vain, self serving nut job, having his name installed above JKF on the Performing arts centre in Washington is proof. Its like Emperor Nero fiddling while Rome burns 🔥 #Trump #NoKings #POTUS

The number of mass shootings in the US is 389 for this year, (Independent Gun Violence Archive - mass shootings are 4+ victims killed or injured, not including the attacker). More than 1 each day.
This will only increase under Trump - people who have guns, will use guns. #Gunviolence #BrokenUSA
