britain still runs on infrastructure built by the victorians. the sewers, the railways, the bridges. men with shovels and no computers built things that have lasted 150 years.

meanwhile hs2 has been going since 2009, costs over £100bn, and got cut in half before a single train ran.

china connected every major city with bullet trains in the time it took us to hold consultations. they build for the next 50+ years. we build for the next election.

this hurts already. in 20 years it grinds everything to a halt. we must fix this.

Palestinians have painted a mural of Ariana, who was sacked from Burger King for saying "Free Palestine," on a wall in Gaza.

The argument made by the copper here – that police don't get to choose which laws to enforce and which ones not to – is complete nonsense.

Police make an active decision not to storm Glastonbury and arrest everyone in possession of cannabis, as they know it would be a disproportionate use of their time and resources.

They choose not to throw all their resources at tracking down bike thieves in London, as they know there are more serious crimes they should prioritise.

They choose not to throw all their resources into enforcing the hosepipe ban, as they know it would be disproportionate and ineffective.

They could also make a decision not to have 50+ officers forcibly arresting old age pensioners for holding up signs.

UK schools typically allow up to 3 days absence for religious observation.

The number of days children from each religious group require:

Muslim: 2
Sikh: 2
Christian: 3
Jehovah's Witnesses: Up to 4
Hindu: Up to 5
Jewish: 13

Rupert Lowe wants to give all parents 5 days of cheap holiday leave to bypass peak travel prices. Good idea. But why frame it as a 'fix' for a Muslim privilege? Muslim kids only take up to 2 days for Eid. If he used jews, he would have to double his offer for 'fairness'.

The math doesn't add up.

Lowe is an anti-Islam slop zionist.

There is no conclusive proof. But the circumstantial evidence that there is pro-Argentina bias in FIFA affecting the World Cup:

1) In the group stage opener against Algeria, Messi caught Aïssa Mandi with a studs-up challenge on the Achilles and escaped any card. FIFA later admitted the VAR officials got it wrong and sanctioned them.

2) The inconsistency became undeniable when the United States' Folarin Balogun was sent off in the Round of 32 for a near-identical foot-on-ankle challenge on Bosnia's Tarik Muharemović. Pundits directly compared the red card to Messi's uncarded foul on Mandi.

3) In the 2026 Round of 32 against Cape Verde, referee Drew Fischer did not enforce the tournament's new rule requiring an injured player to remain off the pitch after treatment. He waited for Argentina's Nicolás Tagliafico to return before allowing a Cape Verde corner. Several uncalled fouls in that game also went Argentina's way.

4) Today against Egypt, with Egypt leading 1-0, Mostafa Ziko finished off a long breakaway to make it 2-0. VAR sent Letexier to the monitor and the goal was disallowed for a Marwan Attia shirt-pull on Lisandro Martínez that occurred roughly 20 seconds earlier and nearly the full length of the pitch from goal.

5) Neutral officiating experts, not just Egyptian fans, called the decision wrong. Former FIFA referee Mark Clattenburg said he did not believe it was a foul and did not believe VAR should have intervened at all, adding that the call was inconsistent with the physical contact referees had allowed all tournament.

6) The winning sequence produced a second grievance. In the buildup to Enzo Fernández's stoppage-time winner, Egypt appealed for a penalty on a Salah challenge and for an Alexis Mac Allister shirt-pull, and VAR checked neither. Hassan cited the unreviewed Mac Allister pull directly in his post-match remarks.

7) The 2026 grievances land on top of a 2022 record In Qatar, Argentina were awarded five penalties, the most ever by a team in a single World Cup edition, with Messi taking all five. That same tournament, Messi handled the ball against the Netherlands in the quarterfinal and escaped a yellow card.

8) FIFA has appointed an all-Argentine crew, led by Facundo Tello, for Thursday's France–Morocco quarterfinal, the tournament's first all-same-country panel.

9) Comments attributed to Infantino after an Argentina match were widely discussed as suggesting bias toward Argentina before he later clarified them, and a deep Messi run drives far more global viewership and revenue than one without him. This establishes incentive.

FIFA cannot be trusted. Egypt was robbed. Argentina are coasting to another title under FIFA protection.

Utterly devastating.

How we have come to have governments willing to facilitate & defend this evil is unfathomable. A horrendous crime against humanity that is shared across so many sick souls.

Counter terror police are investigating a suspected anti-Muslim knife attack in Edinburgh during which five people have been injured. The alleged perpetrator, a white man, has been arrested.

I’m sure the wall to wall media coverage, national address and COBRA meeting are on their way any second now.. any second.. just hang on…

Minimum wage in 2005 was £5.05 an hour.

A Freddo cost 10p.

One hour of work bought you 50 Freddos.

In 2026, minimum wage is £12.71 and a Freddo is 39p.

One hour of work now buys you just 32 Freddos.

So despite minimum wage more than doubling, your Freddo buying power has fallen by 36%.

If wages had actually kept pace with Freddo inflation, minimum wage would be £19.65 an hour today.

Forget economists. Forget politicians.

The Freddo has just delivered the most depressing cost of living graph you'll ever see.

A man armed with an axe and other weapons entered a mosque in Manchester.

A woman wearing a hijab was hit by a car in southeast London.

A 36-year-old white Scottish man was charged yesterday after stabbing five people in an anti-Muslim hate attack.

An imam’s house in Bolton was targeted in an arson attack.

There have also been multiple attacks on mosques, including an arson attack intended to endanger life, a projectile attack, multiple incidents involving graffitis, and hate signs.

Not a single COBRA meeting. No dedicated officers to protect the community. Just a few tweets.

Apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany needed compliant judges to provide a legal veneer to their darkest crimes.

Judge Johnson joins their wretched company. He overturned a jury's conviction of four anti-genocide activists for criminal damage and sentenced them as terrorists instead.

As one their barristers pointed out, the four defendants were initially arrested by police on suspicion of involvement in an act of terrorism. But the prosecution decided not to charge them with terrorism offences because it knew no jury would ever convict them based on the evidence.

Instead the Crown held two trials: a sham one for the jury, and the real one conducted in secret by the judge. That is not justice. It is a show trial worthy of the worst tyrannical regimes.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Sentenced and imprisoned on grounds of “terrorism” that no jury ever convicted them of.

Meanwhile, the British government continues to aid and abet the greatest crime of our time.

A historic miscarriage of justice — and a truly dark day for civil liberties in this country.

This was not just one night.
These are deep wounds that the Kashmiris may not forget for centuries.

This was a night of apocalypse that will remain etched in memory forever the night when our brothers stood firm, taking bullets to their chests, yet they did not run.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED (as of June 8, 2026):

In Rawalakot, Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), violent clashes erupted on June 7 during protests organized by the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) against the Pakistani government.

The protests were over long-standing demands including cheaper electricity, wheat subsidies, and better rights for the local population. Tensions boiled over when security forces (including Pakistan Rangers and police) opened fire on demonstrators.

According to multiple reports, several civilians were killed and dozens injured. Pakistani authorities claim armed protesters attacked a military hospital (CMH Rawalakot), resulting in the deaths of 4-5 security personnel.

The videos circulating are indeed horrifying showing people being shot at close range, blood on the streets, and civilians refusing to back down despite heavy firing. The situation has led to internet blackouts and strict curfews in parts of PoK.

This incident is the latest chapter in growing unrest across Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, where locals are increasingly protesting against Pakistani rule, economic exploitation, and suppression of their rights.

The pain and anger in the post are real. The people of PoK feel they are treated as second-class citizens in their own land, and such crackdowns only deepen the wounds.
