@BarneySimon No to communism, permission laws and government overreach. Let parents parent. Also ID verification of minors only works, if we all prove we are older than 16. Slippery slope....
@Arwenstar my phones are 12 and 16 years old, so limited smart capability.... also don't play those stupid games on FB that require you to scan your face to get 12 hairstyles... numbnuts...
@StuObe@CityPowerJhb They are still trying to restore Ferndale. I suggest we leave pool pumps, geysers and electric heaters off until they get that SS back, otherwise it will just keep tripping.
@DavidJHarrisJr In the original speech, William was speaking specifically about the response of Muslim families and the wider community after the Christchurch attacks. The โlearn a great dealโ phrase referred to how families rallied around their loved ones, NOT to adopting Islamic doctrine.
@Xmusknewsx I don't think you can impose anything on someone who is a citizen of another country under UK legislation that applies within its own jurisdiction. So this is laughable.
@Keir_Starmer Maybe get the criminals and rapists off the street so that kids can walk home safely without being murdered, raped or beheaded? Parents can take care of device safety, you don't need to. Parents can't get criminals deported and you can.
"Online safety" laws and age verification mandates have absolutely NOTHING to do with protecting children.
You cannot stop under-16s from accessing a website without checking the age of everyone who visits it. And you cannot check everyone's age without forcing them to prove who they are.
"Child safety" is the cheese in the mousetrap.
Laws sold under the banner of "child protection" constitute a Trojan horse for a system requiring every adult to verify their identity before they can speak, read, or post online. The child is merely an emotional shield. The adult is the real target.
And once that infrastructure exists, the pretext can be swapped out at will.
Today it is pornography, social media and "harmful content". Tomorrow it is messaging apps and online banking. Soon after it is your ability to access the internet at allโeach incremental step gated behind a digital ID you are required to keep in good standing.
It's no accident that the exact same "online safety" agenda is being rolled out across the entire Western world simultaneously, with each national government reaching for a slightly different pretext to justify the same outcomeโa verified digital identity standing between you and the open internet.
Different countries. Different pretexts. Same infrastructure.
They are not building a system to keep children safe. They are building the identity layer for a permission-based internetโorchestrated from the supranational level by people you never electedโwhere access to information itself becomes conditional on obedience.
The point is not to make the internet safer. The point is to make anonymous access impossible.
Because a person who can read, speak, organise and dissent anonymously is difficult to control. A person whose most intimate online activity is anchored to a state-monitored digital ID is not.
Once every account, search, post, payment, message and website visit is tied to a verified identity, the internet stops being a public square and becomes a monitored enclosure.
But the gate only closes if people accept "online safety" laws at face value.
@CityPowerJhb Power been restored to some areas, reports coming in. But still no power in Ash Road, @CityPowerJhb city please have technicians check mini sub in Ash Road urgently.
The deranged hate campaign against Restore Britain is reaching incredible new levels.
In one Daily Mail article today, the entire stale political establishment line up to have a pop at us.
Reform use that old โneo-naziโ line to open up - unimaginative, at best.
Then Labour attempt to stick the boot in (it doesnโt land), followed by a Conservative MP who goes on to insult me...
All finished off by the Lib Dems, who have a quote at the end saying we should be ashamed of ourselves (we are not).
The Daily Mail missed Polanski for the full house in that particular article, but fear not - he has recently called me an extremist too.
Isnโt it all so boring?
Let them come.
The establishment wants to eradicate Restore Britain, but we are here to stay. My message is this.
GET USED TO IT.
A political party that will deport millions of illegal migrants, sex pests and freeloaders.
If a foreign national is living in our country yet unable to speak English, living in social housing, claiming benefits, refusing to work, hating our way of life or abusing women?
We will deport them.
As I have said many times.
Millions must go.
Labour, Reform, the Tories, Lib Dems, Greens - they all want us gone. Why? Because they can see the support Restore Britain is gaining.
We are going to win.
We are going to mass deport.
We are going to get our country back.
