Davey supported all the mad bullshit over BLM, convicted criminal George Floyd, ‘structural racism’ and all the maddest bullshit from the maddest parts of California’s communist loony bin.
He supported all the changes to police and every other institution which have made us an international joke.
He supported the Boriswave and the importing of thousands of sex criminals.
He supported the continued coverup of the grooming Gangs which is why he wants to ban X and impose censorship.
Davey Starmer etc need censorship so they can continue importing millions from Africa and the worst parts of South Asia.
Until we retire them they will continue wrecking the country

Exactly. Once again it is the sheer hypocrisy that is so telling

Coincidentally, I was reading an article the other day about how BlueSky is a dying platform

Engagement stats have been consistently declining for over a year. A vicious cycle. The less interaction, the less people log on 📉

It has become a shrinking echo chamber

[Skipster @FarRightSkip]

People need to better informed and not plead guilty. Yes they will get remand, but then they will get to face a jury of their peers.

If you are going to face down the police be aware of this.

I'd rather take my chances with 12 English folk than 1 bent and corrupt State Judge.

@TheNewsAgents @maitlis @jonsopel He didn’t beg anyone. His speech was very clearly about the way his son was treated by the police.

You’re so disingenuous.

Simple word he could have used here.

“Sorry.”

But he chose not to. Remember that.

This exchange sums up why Brits are finished with the bollocks they’ve been subject to over decades

Patronising, snarling, contemptuous response to the working class by smug, self righteous nobody

“Look at this fool, ladies and gents, isn’t he an IDIOT?”

[Special Ops Magazine @specialopsmag]

Lieutenant Lily-Mae Fisher, 31, from Virginia Water, Surrey. Britain’s only serving female Royal Navy Commando.

Killed in training on 3 June 2026 when a Merlin Mk4 from 846 Naval Air Squadron crashed at Sourton Down, Devon.

The career arc was extraordinary. An MSc in Geology from Imperial College London in 2016. Junior international representative for England in lacrosse and pole vault. Two years as a geologist with British Petroleum before commissioning in 2019 into the Royal Navy.

During a break in flying training she completed the 16 week All Arms Commando Course, earning the green beret as one of only seven women in British military history to do so, and becoming the UK’s only serving female Royal Navy Commando.

She was killed on her final assessment of flying training. Her Pilot’s Wings were to be awarded in June 2026. She died alongside Lieutenant Commander Chris Gayson, 42, and Petty Officer Owen Green, 24.

[Lord Mongrove @Bishop_Beesley]

We've all seen the video.

More Southampton officers engaged in misconduct, and not arrested. Their victim this time, not a dying 21 year old student but a veteran with his leg held together by pins.

Hampshire constabulary appears rotten to the core.
