So Home Sec was allowed to be allowed to be angry over George Floyd
But two tier lefties say we cannot be angry over Henry Nowak
Utter shameless hypocrites
Just a healthy reminder here that when Mark Duggan was shot by the Met Police in Tottenham it sparked off 5 days of the worst rioting this country has seen. The right condemned it and the left quite rightly explained there were deeper societal problems that Duggan's death sparked off.
The terrible murder of Henry Novak has also reached into our society and speaks to things that are also wrong.
Southport also spoke to something that is very wrong in our society.
The left need to remember this tonight. As do the right when they think about the riots of 2011 or 2024 - or right now.
@stephenpollard It is not 'revolting' that is inciteful language.
It may be ill-educated. It may be misjudged, but to use such inflammatory words is unworthy
Traveller families contributed to my life, by stealing my ยฃ900 bike, and police refused to investigate despite having video footage
Thank you Mayor of London for allowing us to all our fabulous enrichment tales of traveller interactions
This month marks Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month.
Despite facing discrimination in many areas of life, our Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller communities have long contributed to life in our capital and today we celebrate that rich legacy.
@rodbishop15 That may be right, but it's the least relevant issue in a world of thousands of issues to even bother crossing any sane person's mind at this time
@lancelachlan If this country were reset backwards to any decade of my lifetime it would improve our future.
It is bizarre to imagine this is the best time to be alive as a British person. Truly bizarre.
Distribute the Sky money 1 to 92 on a sliding scale, and that would change instantly
When all football decisions are geared towards the top half a dozen clubs, this is the inevitable outcome
See Manchester City for the most recent, and best example. Unless they are placed at least one division below for their abuse of the rules, my point is made
@steverichards14 This 'Hard Right' or 'Far Right' shit is now used to describe ordinary conservatives
These Far Left extremists are becoming more dangerous by the day
๐ฌ๐ง In 51 AD, the biggest kingdom in Britain was ruled by a queen named Cartimandua. ๐ฌ๐ง
When a fugitive British king came to her hall asking for sanctuary, she put him in chains and gave him to Rome. ๐ฎ๐น
Her name was Cartimandua. Queen of the Brigantes. The largest tribal kingdom in pre-Roman Britain.
Her land stretched from the Humber to the Tyne. Sea to sea across northern England.
Her capital sat at Stanwick. The largest Iron Age earthwork in northern Britain.
And at its centre stood a queen.
๐๏ธ When Rome invaded Britain in 43 AD, most of the tribes fought. Cartimandua did not. She made a treaty. She would be a client queen. Her kingdom would keep itself. Rome would not invade her land.
In return, she would deliver Rome what Rome asked for.
In 51 AD, the fugitive Caratacus came to her hall. The Catuvellaunian king who had fought Rome for 9 years. He asked for sanctuary.
She had a treaty with Rome. And a kingdom to protect.
She put him in chains and gave him to Rome.
Her own warriors did not forgive her. Her husband Venutius did not forgive her. He led a rebellion against her. She divorced him and took his armour-bearer as her new partner.
The kingdom split. The civil war began.
โ๏ธ Rome saved her. In 69 AD, she lost her throne. Venutius took the kingdom. And in 71 AD, Rome took the kingdom from him. The largest kingdom in Britain became a Roman province.
But the people did not vanish. They became Britons. Their descendants became the British. And Yorkshire still calls itself God's own country.
Britain has been politically complex for 2,000 years. Queens have ruled here. Choices have been made here. The land remembers.

Our mission is to put our history back in our books.
Most Britons have never heard her name.
Our work is made in Britain, for Britain.
Teach your kids her name. ๐
