🚨(1)BREAKING: Christian community police officer wins settlement after being forced out of his role for questioning and criticising Islam during diversity training.
Luke Salmons, who has been supported by the Christian Legal Centre, was suspended for six months, forced to resign and put on a police barring list after he had questioned radical Islam in a training session.
He had been told that the session was a 'safe place' for discussion, but after expressing his beliefs, the consequences were devastating.
After taking legal action, his case has now been settled on confidential terms, however his story raises serious concerns about free speech and religious freedom in UK policing.

✍️| Peter Charrington’s letter to #Tottenham fans:
Dear Supporters,
On Sunday, despite a season that gave you so little, you gave everything. A full stadium, full voice, full belief, until the final whistle. I have thought carefully about how to begin this letter, and in the end that moment said it better than I can. It is why we owe you honesty about where we have fallen short, and what we are committed to now.
Last September, we recognised that something seismic had to change at Spurs. The Lewis family stepped in and authorised a full reset. That decision was not taken lightly, and it came later than it should have. But what has been put in motion is real, and it marks a genuine break from what had come before.
As part of that process, we discovered some uncomfortable truths. The qualities that make Spurs distinct, our football, our ambition, the connection between the team and its supporters, had been allowed to fade. Football success had not been driving our decisions. We did not have the right expertise in key roles. We did not build squads good enough to compete in the most demanding league in the world. Two 17th place finishes in a row is not acceptable, and we will not dress it up as anything other than falling well short of what this Club expects.
Since September, we have restructured leadership across the Club, with a refreshed executive and football structure. Most of this team are already in post and others will arrive in the coming weeks. The Board are committed to this leadership group and will give them the stability and support they need to run this Club in the right way.
Roberto De Zerbi is signed as Men's Head Coach for five years, a reflection of our belief in his ability and our commitment to build back to where we need to be. He is passionate, committed and positive in everything he does, and represents the kind of football and ambition that Tottenham Hotspur should stand for.
Our commitments to you are clear:
• We will build a squad, led by Roberto as Head Coach, with the right blend of experience, youth and leadership to compete at the highest levels of Premier League and European football. • We will invest across multiple transfer windows to rebuild, balance and strengthen, with this summer representing an important first step in that work. • We will continue to modernise our football operation, with a significant focus on raising standards across medical and performance. • We will increase investment in the Academy to ensure that the pathway from youth football to the first team is one of the strongest in the country. • We will build on a strong season for Spurs Women by continuing to invest in a world-class women's team, led by Martin Ho.
Since becoming Chairman, I have realised that Spurs fans are built differently. I have seen it over and over again in the last nine months, across every generation, in every conversation. Even in the darkest of seasons, you showed up and carried this team. That loyalty is not something we take for granted. It is something we are determined to be worthy of.
There has been speculation about ownership and the future direction of the Club. Let us be direct. Tottenham Hotspur is not for sale. The Lewis family are wholly committed to this Club and to this rebuild. They will provide the stability and investment needed at every level to move us forward, and they see that as a long-term responsibility, not a short-term fix.
This season fell well short of what Tottenham Hotspur demands. We must be in the fight with the best teams in this league, every season, and we are rebuilding this Club with that standard in mind.
This Club lives in the hearts of everyone who has ever loved it. It has been carried through living rooms and stands, weekends and long journeys home.
We will get back to where we belong.
Peter Charrington
Our support is the best out there and I truly believe that. We wouldn’t have avoided disaster without your spirit and fight in the stadium today. A season of recovering from big surgery for me but even in these last few games I feel pure pride and joy everytime I get the opportunity to wear this spurs shirt. Love you all Tottenham Hotspur. See you next season. Coysssss 🤍💪🏼
🚨Oliver Glasner just delivered one of the coldest press conference responses of the season
Reporter asked him about the title race and whether Palace could influence it…
Glasner replied:
“I checked my pay slips… I didn’t get any money from Arsenal or City.”
Then he finished with THIS:
“Our influence in the title race is definitely less than VAR.”
Jamie Carragher on Antonin Kinsky's late save to deny Sean Longstaff (talking on Sky Sports)...
"The save from Kinsky onto the bar from Longstaff is one of the saves of the season.
"The two saves he made, one in the first half, one in the second half, have made sure his team has got what could be a vital point.
"The only save that I can think that made me go 'Wow' was Jordan Pickford at Newcastle. That is certainly up there.
"He's got a presence about him that is better and looks more confident than Vicario.
"It must be the greatest save he's made in his career. To get your arm up that quick. Longstaff couldn't believe it. It makes his save in the first half look like a walk in the park.
"Who would have ever thought that he would probably ever play for Tottenham again, off the back of what happened at Atletico Madrid. You'd have to have a heart of stone if you didn't feel delighted for him.
"Everyone thought his Spurs career was over a couple of months ago. That could be the save that keeps them in the Premier League."

This is what communism looks like in the 21st century. I have just been denied entry to the UK in order to speak at the largest patriotic event in Europe.
Starmer will be sued by me. Not the government, not the Home Office but Starmer personally. Once you lose the next election, communist, we’ll meet in court!
Tommy @TRobinsonNewEra , this communist cannot silence millions, nor can he take away their right to vote!
UNITE THE KINGDOM!
👏🏼 Union Berlin coach Marie Louise Eta becomes the first female manager to win a game in Bundesliga.
The first one in top 5 leagues as well, huge achievement. ❤️🤍
Starmer has just admitted he banned me and other commentators from traveling to the UK because we would “set back communities.” Yet mass third-world migration doesn’t bother him as it only sets back the one community he doesn’t give a rat’s ass about: the White native population.
Calling all my Tottenham followers. Some sad tragic news a friend of ours sadly lost their life to knife crime! So 38th minute we would like to do a round of applause in memory of him tomorrow night against Leeds. Repost and share and spread the word guys COYS🤍🤍🤍 @SpursArmyTweets@oJaayCo
Walk around any British town centre. It's filthy, plagued with gangs of foreign men shouting in their own languages, harassing local women. I am sick of it. I have had enough. We have all had enough.
Why do we put up with it? What are they doing here? Why is nobody in politics talking about it? They'll all scream 'oh isn't Rupert a racist?!' I honestly don't give a shit. I really don't.
It's all true, and we all know it.
Britain didn't used to be like this. Ten, twenty, thirty years ago - it did not used to be like this. We've all seen how it's changed.
It does not have to be like this.
I remember working and living in London. It was the best city in the world. Vibrant, fun, safe, exciting, welcoming.
Now? Large parts are becoming a squalid slum - like so many of our towns and cities. Not just London, Birmingham or Manchester. But our once-charming little towns are going the same way, many already have. Others are well on their way...
Importing hundreds of thousands of young men from backward cultures that share none of our values - that hate women, disrespect women, mistreat women.
What did we think would happen, honestly? Is it a surprise that same poison is infecting our streets and communities? No. No, it is not.
These changes to our communities and our towns are not permanent, not irremediable, not inevitable.
It can be reversed. And it must be reversed.
Stop the flow. Deport the illegals. Remove those foreigners who add nothing, but take so very much.
I will continue to make these arguments in Westminster.
Starmer's too weak to say it, Farage is too scared to say it.
But it's time politicians were honest with the British people.
I have had enough. I want to live in a country where women can enjoy a Friday night out without the fear of being raped by somebody who should never have been in our country to begin with.
I want my country back.
History made. We won ten out of ten seats, with overwhelming majorities in every single one.
Great Yarmouth First, then we Restore Britain.
A very special day.
