@bbcpress@BBCiPlayer Terrible! Not funny and the female lead makes it unwatchable for me. Shame because I do love Timothy Spall. I got to episode 2 but had to give up. Bring back Jonathan Creek!!
Dr. Jordan Peterson issues a chilling warning from the front lines of the digital panopticon.
In China, the architecture of totalitarian tyranny is not a future dystopia—it is today’s reality. A single traffic camera catching you jaywalking initiates a terrifying, fully automated process.
The state’s digital ID system doesn’t just have your name. It possesses your biometric essence: your face, your gait, your genetic code. Conviction is instant. No judge, no jury, no human intermediation.
The punishment is multi-faceted and ruthlessly efficient:
• Fines are automatically deducted from your bank account.
• Your photograph is publicly shamed in your community.
• Your social credit score is systematically reduced.
And when that score falls below the state’s arbitrary threshold, your life is systematically dismantled. You are locked out of society: barred from purchasing a drink, playing a game, boarding a train, or even leaving your designated 15-minute district.
This is not speculation. This is operational. It is a system of control so absolute, so omniscient, that it renders George Orwell’s 1984 “a picnic” by comparison.
The road to this digital serfdom begins with verified digital identity. The question is: Will we fight it, or will we meekly walk down the same path?
@C20Society So sad to see this beautiful building demolished to make way for car parking. I worked there for 12 yrs up till August last year and took lots of photos and videos because I had a horrible feeling this might happen.

Gary Lineker described October 7th as “the Hamas thing”.
Dawn French mocked October 7th as “oooh but they did a bad thing”.
The October 7th massacre really brought out the worst traits amongst celebrities. They’re both disgusting people.
Dawn French didn't just "miss the mark" — she mocked the rape, torture, and slaughter of Israelis on October 7, then played victim after being called out.
Her apology reeks of PR damage control, not remorse.
A truly disgusting woman.
