This is where we currently are in the UK.

You CANNOT turn on advanced data protection on your phones. Apple already disabled that feature.

And now the government demand access to scan and store data from EVERY message, photo, video, email, social media post, every piece of banking information… basically your entire phone usage.

This is reportedly for online child safety, but applies to the entire population.

Make it make sense?!

The world according to Ed Miliband:

Electric towel rails ❌
Massive energy guzzling AI data centres ✔️

[AiCyberSec @AICyberSec]

Milliband proposing to ban >>Underfloor Heating, gas fires, heated towel rails .. Please make it make sense .. Milliband .. Resign you absolute clown and take the rest of the circus with you.. Stop spaffing billions on net zero

[sandieshoes 🇬🇧 @sandieshoes]

The sheer scale of this intervention is staggering - Miliband under the guise of saving the planet, is launching market controls to ban more than a third of “space heating systems”from British shops. 

The Telegraph has the details..

“Ed Miliband will ban the sale of underfloor heating systems deemed to be using too much power in his latest net zero drive.

The Energy Secretary has also set his sights on electric towel rails, gas fires and storage heaters, with plans for new market controls designed to cut carbon emissions.

He wants to bring in new energy efficiency requirements that will result in more than a third of so-called “space heating systems” becoming illegal to sell”

Miliband plans to completely outlaw..

*48% of electric underfloor heating models 
*Over 50% of electric towel rails 
*Up to 27% of standard gas fires.

And what do we get out of this ?

The Government’s own impact assessments admit the average household will save a grand total of just £8 to £10 a year on energy bills.

Shadow Energy Secretary Claire Coutinho hit the nail on the head, calling it “Soviet-level intrusion” where the state dictates how long your towel rail can run.

Instead of fixing the grid or lowering baseline energy costs, the state is policing our bathroom floor.

Someone has to stop this mad man.

Keir Starmer: "We don't have £4.5 billion for defence."

Keir Starmer the next day: "I’m announcing £4.5 billion for more cycle lanes and zebra crossings."

He’s just reached the point where he’s just laughing at us all now.

You really couldn't make it up.

Jeff Bezos just came out of retirement. His first CEO role since leaving Amazon. And he's building something nobody expected. 🤯

It's called Prometheus. $12 billion raised. $41 billion valuation. Backed by JPMorgan, BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, and Bezos himself.

150 employees. $273 million per person. That's how much investors are betting on this.

But here's what makes it different from every other AI company.

Prometheus isn't building another chatbot. It's not generating text or
images.

It's building what Bezos calls an "artificial general engineer" AI that designs jet engines, optimizes manufacturing, and prototypes physical products.

LLMs learned from the internet's text. Prometheus is learning from the physical world physics, simulations, engineering data, manufacturing processes.

In Bezos' own words: "Something that takes 100 engineers 10 years to build we want to make that 10 engineers, one year."

His co-CEO is Vik Bajaj, former Google X executive who worked with Sergey Brin on what became Waymo.

No ties to Amazon. No ties to Blue Origin. Bezos said "it deserves a dedicated team obsessed with this one thing."

While everyone is racing to build the best AI for words, Bezos is quietly building AI for the physical world.

That might be the bigger bet.

[Fiona Rose Diamond @CoviLeaks]

🚨 The government made their own devices 100% invisible, so they can force yours to be 100% transparent. Did you know this? 🚨

They dodge the laws they force on you.
On us. The people!

Do not take this lightly.
Every MP is exempt.
Every Lord is exempt.
Every elite civil servant is exempt.
EVERY PARASITE IS EXEMPT!

They force the laws on us.
They legally shield themselves.
Total public surveillance.
Total state secrecy.
Absolute parasite immunity.

The well-funded, ‘professional’ campaigns wrap this up in polite, Ofcom-palatable jargon… we need to stop playing nice and call this brutal hypocrisy exactly what it is: a legal coup against our privacy.

If you complain about the length of this post or a 8-minute video, you are part of the problem. No filters and no apologies. Wake up or get out of the way.

🚨 RULES FOR THEE, PRIVACY FOR ME: What you NEED to know!

The UK has engineered a digital dictatorship. They demand total transparency from you, while securing absolute secrecy for themselves. This is not a theory. It is written directly into hard law.

Here is the brutal, stripped-down truth of how the political parasites legally insulated themselves from the surveillance panopticon they are forcing onto the public.

1. The Divine Right of MPs
The Law: Section 26, Investigatory Powers Act 2016
The Privilege: Intelligence agencies cannot touch an MP’s data without a personal, written veto from the Prime Minister.
The Tyranny: Your life is subjected to automated bulk surveillance. Theirs is legally untouchable.

2. The Private Internet Loophole
The Law: Schedule 1, Online Safety Act 2023
The Privilege: Official networks used by Ministers, Lords, and civil servants are explicitly exempt from client-side phone scanning.
The Tyranny: Your personal WhatsApp must be stripped of privacy and screened. Their government-shielded apps are completely walled off.

3. The Unchecked Dictator Veto
The Law: The "Henry VIII" Clauses in the Online Safety Act
The Privilege: Ministers hold secondary legislative powers to alter and expand exemptions via Statutory Instruments.
The Tyranny: If parasite official ever faces a surveillance clause, they can simply rewrite the law behind closed doors without a democratic vote.

4. The Weaponised Wilson Doctrine
The Law: Codified Parliamentary Surveillance Protections
The Privilege: The police and security services are completely banned from tracking, tapping, or snooping on politicians.
The Tyranny: The very individuals voting to turn your smartphone into an informant are constitutionally protected from ever experiencing the consequences of their own votes.

💥 THE VERDICT
This is the textbook definition of tyranny. A free society requires a transparent state and private citizens. The UK has completely inverted it. Your private thoughts, messages, and photos are treated as state property, while the parasites have declared their own devices sacred, unmonitored, and completely opaque.

They know exactly how dangerous this technology is - which is precisely why they wrote themselves out of it.

📱 Step 1: The Secret Tunnel (The State VPN)
When an MP, Minister, or elite civil servant works from home, they do not use standard family Wi-Fi. Their government laptops and phones are hard-coded to connect to a secure Government VPN (Virtual Private Network).

🔒 Step 2: The Legal Loophole Activates
The second that VPN clicks on, every single text, photo, and WhatsApp message they send is sucked out of their house and routed through private servers owned by Parliament. Because their data is now flowing through a "public body network," it triggers Schedule 1 of the Online Safety Act.

🕵️‍♂️ Step 3: Complete Invisibility
By law, this private state network is 100% exempt from the screening and scanning algorithms forced onto the public. Their devices instantly become legally invisible and untouchable to the state dragnet.

💥 The Naked Truth
Your Home: Your personal Wi-Fi pushes your private messages into a public commercial pipeline where the government demands it be scanned and screened.

Their Home: Their Wi-Fi instantly flips into a secure, state-shielded fortress.

Location does not matter. The ruling class built a private internet for themselves, using a legal and technical bypass to completely dodge the digital panopticon they are forcing onto you.

FYI: From 2020, when Civil Servants and MP’s worked from home, the Parliamentary Digital Service (PDS) mass-distributed pre-configured laptops, secure mobile devices, and hardware to the home addresses of every MP, Peer, and civil servant. They did not need to install private physical servers in individual houses because the devices themselves act as portable endpoints for the state's centralised servers… then, Government IT teams rapidly re-engineered their servers to handle the strain, massive scaling their corporate VPN capability. This allowed every single person in the state machine to plug their official laptop into their home Wi-Fi, click a button, and completely tunnel their traffic back into secure, centralized government servers.

So, what shall we do folks!?

New MNC (link in bio) campaign to begin VERY soon! But ideas welcome.

The full UK State Pension is now worth around £12,548 a year. That's less than half the earnings of someone working full-time on the National Minimum Wage, despite many pensioners paying taxes and National Insurance for 40, 50 or even 60 years.

Yet every time the Treasury needs money, the same voices appear demanding the Triple Lock be scrapped.

Why?

State pension spending is forecast at around £154 billion this year, but that supports over 13 million pensioners, many of whom rely on it as their primary income. Meanwhile, billions continue to disappear into failed projects, government waste, bureaucracy, consultants, quangos and policies that deliver little value to ordinary taxpayers.

The Triple Lock isn't some gold-plated luxury. It exists because politicians allowed the State Pension to fall behind for decades. Even today, a full State Pension is barely above the poverty line and is nowhere near a typical working wage.

If politicians want to save money, start with waste, inefficiency and failed spending programmes.

Leave pensioners alone.

They worked, they paid in, they built this country and they deserve dignity in retirement, not another raid on their income.

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

WTF? Labour is going to give US investors lower tax rates? Screw British investors!

So let me get this straight… Renewable energy companies receive massive taxpayer subsidies and Tech companies receive taxpayer funded incentives for their data centres….

And now Labour wants to reduce the taxes of wealthy US investors because it thinks their taxes are too high?? Huh?

Turns out we’re taxing British citizens to subsidise corporations and provide tax relief for foreign investors. BRILLIANT 🤡

[Valerie Anne Smith @ValerieAnne1970]

Digital ID: Here is the WEF's plan for you, straight from their website.

Their goal is to create a situation whereby every aspect of daily life—healthcare, banking, food, travel, internet, social media, communications, energy usage, etc—requires a valid digital ID, without which you are locked out.

Once that situation is in place, the conditions of validity can be adjusted to anything they want.

You didn't take the latest experimental mRNA injection? Then your Digital ID is invalid.

You posted something deemed "misinformation" on social media? Then your Digital ID is invalid.

Your social credit score fell too low? Your Digital ID wil be invalid.

You exceeded your monthly carbon allowance? Your Digital ID will be invalid.

You voiced criticism of your new technocratic overlords? Then your Digital ID is invalid.

If governments are ever allowed to succeed in rolling out digital ID—even if it's through the back door via under-16 social media bans—we will find ourselves living in a giant open-air digital prison, from which it will be virtually impossible to ever escape.

But they can only succeed if humanity complies with their agenda. DO NOT COMPLY.

[Cllr. Matt Cowley @matcow7]

The Government cut funding for Level 7 apprenticeships for British people over 22 because it couldn’t afford them, but has found £5k per worker for firms to hire non-British workers. Totally ridiculous.

What you need to know about the new Social Media Ban in the UK:

1. All persons under 16 are prohibited from accessing social media platforms without verified parental supervision.

2. Parental supervision must be logged digitally through the UK. gov app.

3. Parents must approve each post, comment, like, or share in real-time.

4. Failure to supervise constitutes negligent digital guardianship.

5. Penalties for negligent digital guardianship include fines up to £10,000 and potential removal of devices from the household.

6. Educational use is not exempt.

7. Mental health considerations are not exempt.

8. Checking the weather on a browser that could access social media counts as attempted access.

9. Screenshots of banned platforms are treated as contraband.

10. Discussing banned platforms in school counts as conspiracy to access.

11. Parents who express disagreement with these rules online will have their supervision privileges revoked.

12. Any family member can report violations anonymously (encouraged).

Compliance is mandatory.

Britain is safer for it.

🚨I think this is important. The government wants to PAY companies £5,000 to reimburse visa costs for each foreign worker they hire! so, I thought we'd dig into just some of the 'skilled' worker roles the government has approved, that British people could easily do between March 2024 and March 2026.

At a time when unemployment is rising, this is just a short list of 156,873 JOBS British people including graduates did NOT get and overseas visa were issued.

From the Home Office’s own visa data.

▪️34,274 farm workers
▪️21,738 horticultural workers
▪️14,277 elementary agricultural workers
▪️6,502 agricultural and related trades
▪️6,842 generalist medical practitioners
▪️6,047 programmers and software developers
▪️4,205 food preparation and hospitality workers
▪️4,193 care workers and home carers
▪️2,903 nursing professionals
▪️2,895 engineering professionals
▪️2,391 sales, marketing
▪️2,257 teachers
▪️2,000 sales and business development managers
▪️1,509 mechanical engineers
▪️916 marketing, sales and advertising directors

▪️64 hairdressing and beauty salon managers

Westminster is not listening! and is allowing Britain to import labour for jobs British people could be trained to do. Chefs? Butchers? sales staff? bookeepers? shopkeepers? Farm workers? Mechanics? Hospitality staff? seriously???

Why are employers allowed to say there is a “shortage” of skills when there clearly isn't. And why is the government incentivising foreign work visas we dont need? 🚨

[Stuey Beef 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @stuey_beef]

Rachel Reeves is about to tell British workers that the way to “back Britain” is to reimburse visa costs for firms hiring from abroad while a generation of young people here cannot get a foothold in the labour market.

This scheme targets scale-up firms in digital tech, life sciences and clean energy, with refunds on visa costs capped at £5,000 per employee and £25,000 per company each year.

So the message to struggling British graduates is brutally simple: if you were born here, you get lectures about skills and resilience; if you are imported into the right sector, government money suddenly appears.

How is that remotely defensible when youth unemployment is running at 16.2% and nearly one million young people are already NEET?

[Rahul @sairahul1]

Anthropic and OpenAI are both telling engineers to write loops.

Not prompts.
Not agents.
Loops.

That is not a coincidence.

When the two most important AI labs on the planet independently converge on the same pattern — that is a signal worth paying attention to.

Most engineers are still thinking in terms of single calls.

Input → model → output.

The engineers winning in 2026 think in cycles.

Output becomes input. The model evaluates its own work. The loop runs until the result is right.

This is the complete breakdown of what loops are, why they matter, and how to build them ↓

[Tax Justice UK @TaxJusticeUK]

Maybe Jeff was right, doubling his taxes wouldn’t help… because he doesn’t seem to pay any.

New accounts show Amazon UK Services pulled in £8.2bn revenue and £355m profit last year & still paid £0 in corporation tax.

What’s double nothing again?
