Here we go again...

Another margin warning for the GB grid for tomorrow. Low wind and hot weather along with reduced imports from Europe leading to tight margins on the GB system

1200 MW shortfall projected from 18:30 to 22:30

Update expected at 9:30am tomorrow

This is now the THIRD day of tight margin warnings this summer (plus 23 June when there should have been one but wasn't)

Before this year there had never been a summer margin warning

So why now? Because our reliance on both wind and imports is growing. Then when it's not windy we're in trouble, particularly if it's also not windy in Europe where most countries we're connected with also rely on wind. They don't have the spare electricity themselves to sell to us

This is only going to get worse. Although the temperatures we're seeing now are unusual, the actual weather isn't

High pressure weather systems with lots of sun but little wind are common both in summer when they cause high temperatures and winter when they bring the coldest temperatures

Clearly we're struggling to manage

Reliance on wind is not energy security
Reliance on imports is not energy security

We need sensible energy policies and to stop gambling on the weather and praying other countries can bail us out

🇬🇧 THEY TOLD YOU A STORY. 🇬🇧

Colonisers. Slavers. Oppressors. And you were supposed to feel ashamed.

Not for what you done... But for WHO YOU ARE. 🇬🇧

So we tested it. Britain wrote everything down, so we opened the books. 📖

Turns out fewer than 1 man in 10 could vote in the year Britain banned the slave trade. No woman could. Your ancestors could hang for stealing a sheep, get shipped across the world for petty theft, or go down a mine at 8 years old. In Manchester, the average age of death in a labouring family was 17.

They weren't running the slave trade. They were underneath it too.

Which is what makes what happened next worth knowing.

In 1772 an enslaved man named James Somerset walked free from an English court, because English law couldn't hold a slave.

In 1791, 300,000 families just stopped buying slave sugar. No march, no riot, just a decision made at 300,000 kitchen tables.

In 1792, 519 petitions carrying 390,000 names hit Parliament, most signed by people who couldn't vote themselves.

In 1807, Britain banned the trade.

Then the slave owners sent Britain a bill for the 800,000 people they still held. 💷 £20 million. About 40% of the entire government budget at the time.

The Treasury says it wasn't paid off until 2015. So if your family paid British tax before then, they helped buy 800,000 people their freedom.

From 1808 the Royal Navy spent 60 years hunting slave ships at sea: 1,600 stopped, 150,000 people freed, and 1,600 British sailors dead, mostly of disease, buried thousands of miles from home. ⚓

In 1816 they ended two centuries of Barbary corsairs enslaving Europeans.

In 1896 a war that lasted 38 minutes ended slavery in Zanzibar. 🇹🇿

Almost every country on Earth outlaws slavery today.

That fight was paid for largely at British expense, by British hands.🇬🇧

So why haven't you heard any of this?

Because within living memory, someone rewrote the story. You got taught the crime. Not the cure.

The powerful exploited the world. They exploited their own people first. It was those people who ended slavery. 🇬🇧

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

History got rewritten once, in living memory, by no one who was ever named or held to account.

We are ordinary people doing what ordinary people have always done. Opening the books. Refusing to look away.

This is how we fight back. Fact by fact. Story by story. Name by name.

We are the home of British heroes. There is a place for you in it.

If you can afford to support what we do: https://t.co/rih7iKwnvf

Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

It’s about these people some accountability instead of blaming the people! They didn’t ask for this.

The Liberal system criminalises descriptions of the horrific reality its insane policies have produced.

If we cannot truthfully name causes we cannnot apply a humane, orderly solution to remove these effects.

This trap can be escaped. Vote @RestoreBritain to save the Nation.

This is about the responsibility of independent political commentary, media spin, government spin, and what it feels like when Britain stops making sense. A straight BruceUnfiltered take on political despair, public confusion, and where this country could be heading.

Going straight into the police with little life experience is only ever going to have one outcome #TwoTierPolicing, they've been learning who the bad guys are and what they look like since they first started watching the telly.

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it.

Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse.

It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul.

The Daily Mail has now published details from sentencing that almost no one has reported.

As Henry Nowak — bleeding from five stab wounds — tried to climb a commercial rubbish bin and over a fence to escape, Vickrum Digwa filmed him.

And taunted him.

“You’re not going to get away with this big man.”

Henry landed on top of a parked car on the other side of the fence. Digwa walked round and took close-up photos of him lying on the ground.

A home security camera then captured what may be the most chilling exchange in this entire case.

Henry: “I am dying.”

Digwa: “You’re not dying bro.”

Ten minutes later, Henry said: “You stabbed me.”

Digwa replied: “No, I didn’t.”

In the ten minutes that followed the stabbing, Vickrum Digwa did not call an ambulance. He filmed Henry for a full five minutes instead.

That clip was deemed too disturbing to be played in court.

Stop and process what that means. A judge and a jury sat through video of Digwa describing his blade in “loving terms,” through bodycam of Henry being handcuffed as he died, through pathologist evidence of the eight-centimetre chest wound — and the only piece of footage the court ruled too disturbing to show was the five minutes Vickrum Digwa spent filming an 18-year-old as he bled to death on a Southampton pavement.

The judge said it in sentencing: “You continued to make films of Henry suffering, ignoring much of his desperation at having been stabbed. You told him that had not happened, no doubt to convince others who were nearby.”

The lie Digwa told the police did not begin when officers arrived. It began ten minutes earlier, in Henry’s face, as Henry told him he was dying.

This is what Hampshire Police walked into. This is the man they believed when they got there. This is what the court has now formally established took place between the stabbing and Henry’s death.

The five-minute video exists. Henry’s family knows what is on it. The court knows what is on it. The public does not.

It is too disturbing to be shown.

But not too disturbing to have been done to him.

Henry — forever 18. 🤍

🚨STARMER’S BLATANT HYPOCRISY EXPOSED! 🤔

Perfect example of Two-Tier Keir.

Video 1 (2020): Starmer viciously attacks Trump for his response to the rioters after George Floyd’s death, calling it an “affront to humanity” and defending the unrest as “peaceful protests” by people “rightly demanding justice”.

“Like you, I was shocked and angered by the killing of George Floyd. And the response of President Trump and US authorities to the peaceful protests, to people rightly demanding justice, has been an affront to humanity.”

Video 2 (Today): Starmer condemns the “disgraceful” rioters in the wake of Henry Nowak’s tragic murder and his shocking treatment by police.

“No matter the pain we feel, there is no justification for violence and disorder. Let me be clear, we will ensure anyone found engaging in disorder meets the full force of the law.”

Why the blatant double standard, Keir?

Either rioting is bad or it isn’t?

You’re “shocked and angered” and label Trump’s crackdown an “affront to humanity”… but now you’re cracking down hard when people “demand justice” after Henry Nowak.

Are you the “affront to humanity” for condemning these rioters?

Two-Tier Keir exposed for the world to see.
