@Councillorsuzie@LizaRosen0000 When people say they’re going to vote Green I naturally ask them ‘why’? They normally mumble that they’re nice or, I don’t trust the other party’s.
They are also the people who believe Eastenders is high drama, and strictly come dancing is great entertainment.
John Cleese, 86, is being targeted by activist group Deenified as he tours England with his Holy Grail stage show. The group has accused him on X of "using your platform to attack Islam" and "spreading dangerous misinformation," with one activist calling free speech "a convenient shield for anti-Muslim hostility."
Cleese rejects the Islamophobe label entirely, calling himself "Islamosceptic," and has pointed out nobody ever called him "Christophobic" after Life of Brian. Islamic outlet 5Pillars has gone further still, explicitly demanding he be de-platformed.
Rupert Lowe has already called this what it is: a pressure group trying to bully an 86-year-old man into silence over jokes and honest opinions. He's right, and he's right to tell Restore Britain to back Cleese publicly.
These people don't want dialogue. They want submission. Every time someone caves to this kind of pressure, it teaches them the tactic works, and they come back harder next time for the next target. Cleese is refusing to bow, and every single person who values the right to criticise a religion without getting hounded for it should be standing directly behind him.
Protect @JohnCleese, at all costs.
There seem to be more and more videos emerging of police questioning people simply for preaching Christianity or reading from the Bible on Britain’s streets.
Free speech and freedom of religion are fundamental rights. Police resources should be focused on tackling serious crime, not repeatedly questioning peaceful preachers about their words.
In the year ending March 2026, police recorded 74,727 rape offences in England and Wales.
That is where I want to see police time, resources and attention focused.
Britain needs policing priorities that protect the public and defend our freedoms.
Greta Thunberg didn’t pile on Ed Sheeran because he backed Israel.
He didn’t. He tried to stay out of it.
She piled on because he wouldn’t recite their script: “genocide,” “apartheid,” “only one victim.”
That’s the point. They don’t want conversation or agreement. They want total submission to their extremist politics.
Refuse the liturgy and you’re the enemy.
@FrankCa52742356 I work for Royal Mail and we process thousands of these daily. I know it’s nonsense, we know it’s nonsense, and obviously so do you ;-)
@SpeechUnion I recently had a procedure at an NHS hospital.
The nurse was going through a box ticking list, when it came to “is the patient pregnant” she glanced at me with a smile and said ‘obviously not’. I felt as if things had turned a corner. Having read this, not.
