2am kick off, the Azteca, Bellingham and Kane, 10 men, Burn heading a million crosses away, Wonderwall, Kane’s interview, Henderson breaking his arm in the celebrations.
In twenty years, we’re probably looking back on this as the most iconic England match ever.
On Saturday I'll be in Whitechapel talking about being a woman in Britain. I know many women feel under threat by the creep of Islam but are too afraid to be public about it. I'll go alone if I have to, but I'd love you to come if you can.
I’m actually a child online safety expert and was one of the pioneers in this space with Club Penguin and so I feel uniquely positioned to critique this.
The groomer problem is real but it’s also vastly overstated. The far larger issue we saw at Penguin was suicidality or reports of sexual abuse in the home.
There is no solution for lazy/bad parenting. You can implement all the ID laws you want but if parents are going to just hand kids their phones unlocked, those kids will have access to all the same things the parents have unfettered.
What I found is that these draconian safety laws actually make it harder to be an honest operator of kids apps because on one hand it’s so much legal risk and so much user friction that it simply becomes uninvestible as a business.
Parents will just lie to let their kids use the unfettered internet. For example, I have a friend who works in mobile gaming who has two kids, one above and one below the age limit but separated by just 2 yrs, and the two wanted to play and chat together on Roblox - which is reasonable. To do this, he just verified that his younger kid is old enough for the chat feature when he’s not.
This happens all the time and will happen with these laws to. How far do we want to go with this? Scan the face of the user in real-time to make sure it’s not a kid using the device? We could do that but it feels like a massive unwanted intrusion of privacy.
That’s how you know this law isn’t about kids. COPPA and GDPR-K and so forth already make it illegal to allow chat and other grooming vectors to kids.
What’s really being done here is trying to eliminate online anonymity. And this is a far bigger issue that goes to core speech rights because if you cannot criticize the govt anonymously and if wrong speech is a crime then it becomes easy to identify all the detractors of the govt in power, and ban, fine or jail them for speech crimes.
Starmer has already been doing this and he wants to do it at a much bigger scale. Starmer won’t even acknowledge the problem of actual grooming gangs in Britain’s neighborhoods but he’s worried about online grooming?
No he’s not, and this hypocrisy gives away the game. What he wants is to kill online anonymity so he can enforce censorship of his unpopular policies. No politician should have this power.
@ThisIsEmPx People in the crowd were saying there’s been three stabbings in Chelmsford today. Definitely one at the skate park in central, unsure of the others. 3 kids were arrested!
Reminder that Labour are only in power because Reform split the right wing vote 2 years ago. 13% of people currently want to vote Restore and should be given that choice whether it splits the vote or not.
How stupid and self defeating is Rupert Lowe? He hates Farage so much he’s willing to hand the election to Burnham who will destroy what’s left of this country. What a vain, egocentric idiot he is. He’s not a serious politician. Only got his own interests at heart not Britain’s

The wrestler can now be identified as Taufa'ase'e Tei, also known as "Trixie."

“Can I really be able to stay here? Will I be safe?”
I’m leaving London, the capital city of my own country, partly because I have to dodge violent Africans who lunge at me nearly every time I leave my house. It’s an almost daily occurrence and has a huge impact on my life. The only reason I’ve escaped so far is luck.
I don’t mean to sound callous but where are the sympathy pieces for British women who are harassed and harmed by African men? Why does mainstream media only care when victims aren’t white? There’s no shortage of British women whose lives have been destroyed by violent immigrants.
Many British women are asking themselves, “can I really stay here? Will I be safe?” But we can’t flee to our home country because this is the only home we have.
Have some heavy work to do with Daisy - a memory migration/upgrade that lends towards self-improvement, and work on a per-month data view, alongside the per-curricula endpoint. Not insanely hard, but complicated. I have released the Fable 5 beast to do my bidding.
🚨I think this is important. The government wants to PAY companies £5,000 to reimburse visa costs for each foreign worker they hire! so, I thought we'd dig into just some of the 'skilled' worker roles the government has approved, that British people could easily do between March 2024 and March 2026.

Westminster is not listening! and is allowing Britain to import labour for jobs British people could be trained to do. Chefs? Butchers? sales staff? bookeepers? shopkeepers? Farm workers? Mechanics? Hospitality staff? seriously???
Why are employers allowed to say there is a “shortage” of skills when there clearly isn't. And why is the government incentivising foreign work visas we dont need? 🚨
The Sudanese man arrested for the attempted beheading was granted leave to remain in the UK by the Home Office, led by now-Reform MPs Braverman and Jenrick, on the 28th of September 2023.
On the 26th of October 2023, one month later, Jenrick formally answered a parliamentary question with the following statements...
"The UK has a proud history of supporting refugees."
"The UK is proud to have welcomed Sudanese nationals"
"we also welcome eligible Sudanese nationals through our refugee family reunion route."
This is what Reform's 'shadow chancellor' has said about welcoming unvetted Sudanese fighting age men.
It is scandalous.
I want to know exactly what Jenrick and Braverman knew about these Sudanese men they were allowing to stay in Britain.
What checks were made? Criminal records? Anything?
They were welcoming young men from a brutally backward country that has an entirely alien culture completely incompatible with our way of life.
Why let them in? Why do it? Why endanger British men and women? How many more did they let in?
I am putting a number of formal questions/FOIs to the Home Office to obtain that information.
Jenrick and Braverman were responsible for our borders, they held the power - they let this man in, and then handed him a visa.
It is sickening.
A disgraceful failure that must never be forgotten.
