If starmer holds up four fingers and tells you that it is five fingers you must not only say that it is five but you must believe it

[Donna Rachel - The Dissident Councillor 🕊️ @Donna_Rachel_]

WATCH: @FraserNelson explain that as long as politicians can lie effectively to the public about immigration and pretend to hear their concerns, they will be free to have as much immigration as they like.

This is exactly how the establishment thinks. It believes it can dupe the public interminably into accepting huge numbers of people from violent countries and that the public will be mollified by placation.

That's why they're more upset about the anger demonstrated on the streets of Belfast last night than they are about the man who attempted to saw off someone's head. You're not supposed to notice those sorts of things. You're not supposed to be angry. The Party is telling you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It is their final, most essential command.

This case is important because it's has become normalized to deface works of art / paintings or just people doing whatever they want to do despite disrupting the lives of other people and indeed stopping people getting to work of to earn the money they need to live

[Jennifer Thetford-Kay @JenKteach]

It feels odd to find myself hoping that a massive multinational corporation like Allianz wins this case. Yet here I am, quietly rooting for them.
Property destruction and vandalism aren’t legitimate protest tactics. If activists can spray red paint, occupy offices, and rack up tens of thousands in real damages with no serious consequences, it sets a dangerous precedent that will only encourage more of the same. The rule of law has to apply equally...

Allianz SE is suing six pro-Palestine activists (linked to Palestine Action) for nearly £300,000 in a civil court case in the UK. The activists took part in protests in 2024 and 2025 where they broke into Allianz offices, sprayed red paint, and caused an estimated £38,000+ in physical damage while protesting the insurer’s previous links to Israeli arms firm Elbit Systems.
Allianz is claiming the full amount includes substantial extra costs for reputational damage, commercial disruption, and lost business. A British court recently ruled that the civil lawsuit can proceed before the activists’ separate criminal trials for the damage.

Because it’s a civil case, the activists have no jury, limited legal aid, and lower burden of proof against them. Any damages awarded would come directly from their personal savings and future earnings, potentially causing long-term financial hardship or bankruptcy.The case has become a flashpoint: it raises questions about where lawful protest ends and unlawful property damage begins, and whether corporations should be able to pursue aggressive civil recovery alongside criminal proceedings.

Telling response that illustrates why labour no longer represents the working class

[Jane Waring @CreeAnt]

A Labour voter all my life (71 now) but I have never felt as ashamed of @UKLabour as I do now, watching MPs queue up to explain why they’re abandoning women, proving that they’re happy for my granddaughters to have fewer rights in future than I have had. Wretched cowards all.

[Edgar Holroyd-Doveton @EdgarHolroyd]

How more idiotically can Labour get do they really think this approach will gain them any support

[Family Education Trust @FamEdTrust]

Chief Treasury Secretary Lucy Rigby has defended the Government’s decision to not reduce interest rates on student loans, saying the money is being used to fund benefit schemes including ‘free breakfast clubs’ and lifting the two child benefit cap.

Trapping graduates in a lifetime of debt in order to fund breakfasts for children whose parents should be feeding them at home is not beneficial to anyone - children, families or young adults starting out in life.

[Michelle Dewberry @MichelleDewbs]

Our government seems more bothered about stopping people seeing bad stuff happening, then it does about stopping the bad stuff happening.

It is said bad stuff which is inciting disorder. Trying to hide it from people will make things worse, not better.

It blows my mind that in moments like this, instead of thinking “right, we really need to stop the issues giving people cause for concern’ this government instead thinks ‘what we need to do, is control people even further’…

Absolutely clueless.

[Queen Bee @KingBobIIV]

He's not bothered about child sexual exploitation on Pornhub, OnlyFans, Roblox, or any of the countless platforms where children are groomed, abused, and exploited. He's not demanding tougher sentences for predators. He's not demanding the closure of sites that profit from sexual content children can access. He wasn't particularly interested when the BBC spent decades covering for prolific celebrity nonces or when LBC parade around government psyop whore Bonnie Blue.

What he cares about is @X.

Because X is where people get news, compare notes, share evidence, and discover that what is happening in one town is happening in another. From Penzance to Portugal - we are one.

The pretence is that this is about "misinformation" and "encitement", but the actual target is the means by which ordinary people communicate with each other.

They've tried destroying our pubs and our churches and communities - where we congregate and talk and unite. But we found somewhere else, so that has to be destroyed too.

What they forget is that the British were organising long before mobile phones, the internet, social media, television, radio, or newspapers.

For a thousand years we organised rebellions, uprisings, protests, petitions, and resistance movements armed with little more than word of mouth, churchyards, market squares, pubs, and messengers on horseback.

The Iceni managed it.

The Cornish managed it.

The Levellers managed it.

The Chartists managed it.

The people who fought the Romans, the Vikings, the Normans, and every other power that tried to impose itself upon them managed it.

If people are angry enough, they will find each other.

They always have.

[Suella Braverman @SuellaBraverman]

This is why we need to go further than merely repealing the Public Sector Equality Duty.

Hundreds of thousands of pounds spent on ‘Positive Action’ officers, ie people employed to think about how the police can discriminate even more against white men. All based on large swathes of the Equality Act.

Only Reform has the backbone to do the heavy lifting to actually get rid of this rot.

@moneillsf But why did it? Nothing happens in a vacuum

[Edgar Holroyd-Doveton @EdgarHolroyd]

@michaelpierse Another illogical post. With this logic, "they" would have been doing this last week and the week before. Any excuse would do err!
Don't worry, ignore the elephant in the room and throw out a few labels - that will solve the problem.

Another example of the hidden totalitarianism embedded in our society - promoted, amongst others, by the Labour Party.

[Christian Concern @CConcern]

FOUR YEARS AGO TODAY: Felix Ngole is told his job offer is withdrawn unless he commits to "promoting and embracing" LGBT ideology

After being expelled from his social work course in 2016 for quoting verses on Facebook that oppose homosexuality, Felix Ngole finally won his case in the Court of Appeal in 2019 with our legal support.

But in 2022, this win came back to haunt him.

After applying for a job as a social worker with Touchstone Support Leeds, Felix gained the highest marks of any candidate on an equality and diversity assessment, and was offered the role of Mental Health Support Worker.

Then, Touchstone Support Leeds found out about Felix's free speech win in his previous case, and withdrew his job offer.

He was told that unless he committed to “promoting and embracing” LGBT ideology, he would not be employed.

With the help of Christian Concern and the Christian Legal Centre, Felix took legal action against Touchstone Support Leeds and won his case at the Employment Appeal Tribunal in London.

We continue to support him as he appeals aspects of this ruling to the Court of Appeal, in an attempt to further clarify and entrench Christian freedoms.

Watch Felix's story here👇

@robblackie when did the liberal party become the party of authoritarianism?

[Edgar Holroyd-Doveton @EdgarHolroyd]

This is a classic example of establishment deflection (here, the MSM, as part of the establishment).
Instead of addressing the causes of the riots and disturbances, instead of looking for solutions, begin by addressing the underlying problem. Yes, so it does not happen again. They instead create deflective scapegoats to avoid the elephant in the room.
The targeting and rioting were not nice, but people don't get into that frame of mind in a vacuum - there are causes. If you want to dance around those causes, avoid a discussion about them, then you (here Channel 4) become part of the problem.

I was at HQ today when Channel 4 News reporter asked @TiceRichard if he thought Nigel Farage’s comments from a WEEK AGO sparked the scenes in Belfast last night?

Richard Tice: “Absolutely ridiculous, outrageous…You should be ashamed of yourself.

Great response Richard.

[Edgar Holroyd-Doveton @EdgarHolroyd]

What was the point in history when the "liberal" party became the main advocate of state control over citizens and pushed authoritarian measures?
Once upon a time, long, long ago, there was a Liberal Party. Now all that remains is a name that authoritarianism sits behind. The Nazi regime used the Reichstag fire as an excuse for this type of control; now it is Ed Davey, manipulating riots to do the same.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

The scenes we saw in Belfast yesterday were horrific, and people are right to be concerned.

The Government must take action against tech billionaires like Elon Musk, who control the divisive and harmful social media algorithms that are inciting violence and hatred.
