In potentially one of the greatest ironies of modern times, thanks to lighting contractors not being covered for taking down flags it may be the case that Kent's festive bulbs won't go up this year. Meaning Christmas might be inadvertently cancelled. By "patriots".

Private firm wants ban of group known for non-violent direct action against genocide: "Yessir! Right Away sir! Would you like a ban on regular protests with that?"

More drivel from the Telegraph suggesting Farage is somehow in danger. Meanwhile the Times recently disclosed Farage's favourite restaurant is Boisdale of Belgravia, because what's he going to be facing, more milkshakes? This importing of US talking points regardless of reality is utterly pathetic.

Coming up at 7.30pm tonight, the Anarchist News Review! We'll be talking about tail-end Toryism, Labour's apparent inability to stop behaving like the far-right it claims to be defending us against, and some of the stories Freedom News has covered this week. Follow us:

Glad Labour's in charge to defend us against the far-right tendency to ban opposition and continually extend police powers repressing dissent. Can you imagine if Reform got in and used right-wing media shouting as an excuse to criminalise "repeated protests" it didn't like? Bullet dodged there ...

Livestreaming at 7.30pm, the Anarchist News Review! Was Starmer saying some negative things about Farage the nod we were all waiting for to begin the revolution? Is a centrist citzens database less Orwellian? Do we really need human rights laws anyway? Find out later!

Nigel Toadface thinks the radical left has been waiting for permission from Keir St ... *double checks notes* ... no, that is right, Keir Starmer. To physically attack Reform candiadates.

Starmer. Seriously is there any weird US talking point which that rubberfaced toff won't shamelessly ape?

Emma Watson's naively hopeful, very generous letter to bigoted auntie Rowling:

Billionaire J K Rowling's poisonous transphobic drivel accusing Emma Watson of being overprivileged:

Your quick reminder that we're on the lookout for articles to put in the winter issue of our bi-annual journal, deadline's October 4th! We're on the 'watching them watching us' brief this time, so looking at surveillance both by them and us, power grabs against civil liberties, and all that jazz ...

The Times today reports that Kemi Badenoch's planning to do away with not just that pesky human rights thingy that keeps getting in the way of treating refugees inhumanely ...

Coming up at 7.30pm tonight, the Anarchist News Review! Socially disastrous corporate tech is touted as a "great deal" turning the UK into a Silicon Valley colonial extraction zone - yet politicians have never been so weirdly attracted to anti-science conspiracy ... www.youtube.com/@freedom9763

Having recovered somewhat, here's a couple of images from yesterday's @bookfairldn.bsky.social, thanks so much to the organisers who put such a huge amount of time and energy into making it all happen!

Saturday: Musk declares a nascent civil war on a giant screen in front of 100,000+ people. No action taken.

Tuesday: Imagery of Trump and Epstein is projected on a wall. Police make 4 arrests on suspicion of "malicious communication."

Oh yes Peter Kyle, free speech is "alive and well". For some.

No Anarchist News Review tonight as folks were unavailable - if you like the show we can always do with more volunteers to produce, discuss and promote!

Coming up at 7.30pm, the Anarchist News Review!

Have the Greens found their man in smooth-talking Zach Polanski? Could Graham Linehan's bigotry be the horribilis causa that pulls down incitement restrictions?

We'll talk some toss about those questions and more. www.youtube.com/@freedom9763

Incitement to violence from transphobes and racists now being totally okie dokie as far as the political class is concerned, and Britain supposedly being a "two tier" justice system favouring the left, I wonder what would happen if a leftist called for violence against Wes Streeting ...

Neville Starmberlain doing his best to give Nigel Farage every opportunity.

Rylan Clark showcasing the incoherence of the migrant panic: “I find it absolutely insane that all these people are, one, risking their lives to come across the Channel. And, two, when they get here, it does seem like: ‘Welcome. Come on in.’ This is the narrative we are being fed."

What narrative??
