The Home Office bussed hundreds of asylum seekers into a former army camp at Crowborough, East Sussex — at 3 o’clock in the morning.

Not at noon.
Not with a press release. Not with a briefing to local councillors.

At 3am.

Wealden District Council — the elected local authority responsible for that area — says it was deliberately kept in the dark.

Not a courtesy call.
Not a heads-up.
Nothing.

They discovered what their own government had done to their community the same way the residents did: after the fact.

The Council’s Deputy Leader James Partridge has now formally stated that the Home Office’s secrecy “carries a high risk of public disorder and injury to people and property.”

Read that again.

Elected local politicians are warning Parliament that their own national government is creating the conditions for violence — through deliberate concealment from the people who live there.

This isn’t bureaucratic incompetence.

Incompetence doesn’t require a 3am operation.

This is a government that knew the public would object, decided they didn’t have a right to know, and moved at night to get ahead of any resistance.

They chose secrecy over safety.

And now they’re blaming the public for reacting badly to being lied to.

🚨 NOW: The Trump-Rubio US State Department sends condolences to the family of Henry Nowak and DEMANDS the United Kingdom REJECT "two-tiered policing"

SPOT-ON. 🙏🏻

"Ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing are glaring symptoms of civilizational decline. They must be rejected across the West.

The United States sends our condolences to the family of Henry Nowak and the people of the United Kingdom at this troubling time."

Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all.

🇺🇸 Miami’s Mutra became the first kosher restaurant in the world to receive a Michelin star.

The Israeli-inspired restaurant, opened just over a year ago by Jerusalem-born chef Raz Shabtai in North Miami.

🩹 ⛓️ Ukrainian medic who returned from Russian captivity, when asked by a journalist what he would like to change in the past, answers: "I would wish never to have been born. Too much pain..."

When an individual—specifically someone whose profession is dedicated to the preservation of life—expresses the desire to have never been born, we are witnessing the total victory of the torturer over the spirit. We have faced the greatest evil the Earth has ever known - Russia.

I’m not sure UK citizens understand how big a deal it is to lose equality under the law.

To lose it will change the nature of our country, the rights of citizens, and our relationship to the state in ways we can barely comprehend.

@TheLaurenChen We are social creatures. We like to fit in and be liked.
Women focus their methods of persuasion on that notion a lot.

Even during debate.

[Lauren Chen @TheLaurenChen]

Women mostly base their opinions on consensus, not reason

That's why this woman doesn't bother making an actual argument or rebuttal

She thinks all she has to do is signal that his opinion is "weird" and others will agree with her

It's shockingly effective
