The best response to the flags is to put up posters of amazing Brits the far right hates with the flag. People like Mo Farah, Freddie Mercury, Noor Khan etc. Make *them* either oppose the flags or acknowledge the countless non-white Brits who’ve achieved greatness for the country.

I've often thought rather than take down the flags, we should be putting up pictures of famous British sports people & celebs with the flag. Especially those with a non-white or immigrant background. Mo Farrah, Freddie Mercury, Geri Halliwell, Dua Lipa, Naomi Campbell etc

Anti-racist protesters are being goaded into opposing the flag. Don't play into their game. Instead display big posters of non-white athletes & celebrities wtih the flag. Especially those with immigrant backgrounds. Force them to oppose our sporting & musical heroes.

The big problem is anti-racist protesters are being goaded into opposing the flag. A good way around it would be to display big posters of non-white athletes & celebrities wtih the flag. Especially those with immigrant backgrounds.

This is one example. He also had a tirade at Elmo on X which is actually pretty funny.

It’s telling that the only people who make “jokes” like this have only known peace, stability & economic security.

I found this in my photos. Many years ago I was skimming a book on Nehru and this passage struck me so much that I photographed it and I never forgot it. I haven't the faintest idea which book it was, maybe an autobiography since this bit at least was in the first person.

Andrew Tate is much scolding towards young men than any progressive is. Criticism is not why they are turning to him. What's different about Tate is he offers them easy answers to their problems rather than "it's complicated".

The majority of women say don't mind trans women being allowed in their toilets. Every poll finds that women are more supportive of trans rights than men. yougov.co.uk/society/arti...

I know very little about prejudice faced by Asexuals, but having an international day doesn't seem unreasonable, considering we also have international days for tuna, chess, potatoes, bicycles etc. Or perhaps Rowling will be equally furious over International Jazz Day later this month?

It’s not just that he didn’t bother to talk to a historian or read a book on partition to check his facts. It’s that he didn’t even spend 30 seconds looking it up on Wikipedia.

Forget proper journalistic rigour - just looking at Wikipedia would’ve shown him his mistake

I’m glad McConnell is having to watch in horror the results of his own cynicism & cowardice play out. I hope he stays in politics & mentally alert for as long as possible so he misses nothing

It depends on who “we” are.
