@daveatherton Apparently, Rowe doesn't live that far away from the pub & he has complained several times about the pub. Then he becomes a Cllr & suddenly the pub are told to remove their outside tables. Smacks of corruption & abuse of power doesn't it. Rowe should be investigated
This seems a great shame & will make it even harder for hospitality businesses make ends meet? Unusual for a councillor who should be supporting local business & connected employment.
I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
Rick Rowe the Green Party candidate has just been out to the pub I’m in after sending the police here earlier. He threatened me and grabbed my phone. His boyfriend was here too, filming me for half the evening. What you going to do @metpoliceuk ?
Rick Rowe just came to the pub I was in with his boyfriend, knowing I was there, because he’d sent the police to intimidate me earlier. His boyfriend filmed me half the evening. Rick tried to grab my phone twice. It’s on film. He also said confidential information about me that the police had told him. I’m very happy to prosecute him and the police.
I’m home now. Rick Rowe, the Green Party candidate has been given my personal information by the police. He let it slip tonight, when he deliberately came to the Chiswick pub that he sent the police to who acted on his orders (see my previous video). If I do not post on here in the morning, it means that the police have again acted on the orders of a Green Party candidate and have arrested me. I hope that I am able to post tomorrow morning, but seriously, please kick up a fuss with whoever you can if you don’t see a post from me by 9am British time. Really appreciate your support in these difficult times. Thank you.
This is the City Barge pub in Chiswick right now. What do you notice? It’s 3pm and they’re open. It’s a sunny day. Yes, that’s right; they have had to remove all of the tables and chairs outside. They have had to destroy their own business. Why? Because Rick Rowe, a Green Party councillor on Hounslow council, who lives very, very, very close to this pub and complains about it almost daily, has banned all three pubs here on strand on the Green Chiswick, from having outside tables. I can only assume he hates pubs, hates business and hates the British way of life. This would usually be buzzing with people enjoying their afternoon. However, they’re the wrong sort of people for Rick.
There's a Ukrainian lady playing a russian in the Wimbledon tennis right now.
The russian makes a lot of noise. Typical russian.
She shouldn't even be allowed there.

We live in a world where a grown man films himself blocking an 80-year-old woman, refusing to move out of her way so she can use the handrail for support near the top of the stairs.
He tells her to walk around him, and she says she can’t because she’s 80.
He then posts the video himself, thinking he’s in the right.
People like him are sickos who clearly weren’t raised right.
He needs to be named and shamed since he wants clout. And i hope someone buys that lovely lady flowers.
Ukraine's SBU reportedly struck three vessels at the Zaliv shipyard in Kerch with drones: the Project 15310 cable-laying ships Volga and Vyatka, along with the nearly completed ferry Petropavlovsk.
The Project 15310 ships were reportedly intended to deploy Russia's underwater surveillance network and lay naval mines.
BREAKING: Sources are telling me there are serious concerns in Europe over closed-door discussions involving Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, the Kremlin, and a potential U.S.-Russia partnership connected to the Nord Stream pipeline.
You honestly have to stand up and give a slow clap for the absolute strategic genius of Vladimir Putin. He launched a three-day war to completely "demilitarize" Ukraine and turn it into a defenseless buffer zone. 1,600 days later, he has accidentally created the most lethal, high-tech military superpower in modern European history right on his own doorstep.. 🇷🇺🤡🇺🇦
A massive new briefing from the atlantic council confirms what military analysts have been watching unfold by mid-2026: Putin’s master plan has backfired in the most spectacular way imaginable. Back in 2014, the Ukrainian military was an underfunded ghost town. Today? They have treated the battlefield like a brutal tech start-up. By ditching old-school bureaucracy and empowering young, creative commanders with domestic tech companies, Ukraine has built a drone arsenal so advanced it is literally making NATO generals blush during joint exercises. 🚀💻
Ukraine is now an undisputed drone superpower. They have single-handedly neutralized Russia's Black Sea Fleet using homemade naval drones, and are currently executing a complete "logistics lockdown" on the ryska armén using massive mid-range drone swarms. If Putin accepts peace now, he has to live next door to a permanently hostile, hyper-militarized powerhouse. If he keeps fighting, Ukraine just keeps upgrading its sci-fi arsenal while Russian troops are still begging for diesel for their 1980s tanks. This is the Kremlin’s ultimate geopolitical nightmare unfolding in 4K. Grab your popcorn, the coping is reaching terminal velocity! 😂🍿

@MattWallace888 Pathetic propaganda attempt. Note that:
A) Zelensky gets invited to the G7 whereas Putin, doesn't.
B) Zelensky commands the respect of every G7 Head of Goverment, with the exception of Trump, who no-one respects anyway.
