British Govt aiming ‘manufacture’ public approval with some incredibly slanted questions over a tiny timespan to put the onus on you ensure your car meets the emission target it was built to for it’s entire life or ‘unlimited fine’.
Please disagree…

@AlexBrundle this proposal is a sick twist of the knife in the backs of working people - how tf can ordinary workers fund a maintenance program for targets that should be guaranteed by the manufacturer
IF we have to issue these to people who illegally break into the country it means we ARE putting women & girls in increased harms way. Facts matter.
New rules let grid bosses impose rolling three-hour blackouts on millions of homes with just eight hours' notice – and no political approval needed. Is this what 'energy security' looks like? asks Paul Homewood in the Climate Skeptic. https://t.co/xwerfKnFVj
NEVER FORGET: once your culture is gone, it's gone forever.
Government education has (deliberately) failed to teach the Great Books of the West for decades.
So, we started an independent group to study the Western canon together. We're reading the books that form the mind and shape the spirit. The books our ancestors read.
Western Civilization has given us the greatest works ever known, but it takes effort and an open mind to read them. Homer, Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Dante, Shakespeare, and Milton are not just names in a syllabus, but guides to a deeper and more ordered life.
Join our reading group to study the great works in dialogue with others. We read a new classic every 4-6 weeks, and meet biweekly to discuss.
We are just starting The Brothers Karamazov, the greatest psychological novel ever written. You do NOT want to miss this.
Take out a paid subscription if you'd like to support us and join the discussions directly — it makes a huge difference to the time and resources we can dedicate.
You'll get:
- Live book club discussions (biweekly)
- Access to our incredible community chat
- Essays to guide you through the Great Books
- All past recordings, essays, and podcasts
- Ability to vote on what we read next

See you inside!
A Polish mother was arrested after refusing to leave her 13 year old son unattended with a police officer in Liverpool. Her son had been accused by a Nigerian family living in social housing of stealing garden keys, an allegation he denies.
The officer later threatened to pepper spray the mother, who was then arrested. The boy was taken into a police van barefoot, with the officer refusing to let him retrieve his shoes and socks. The boy also claims that the officer later broke his wrist. More evidence to follow.
🍺 Thinking of going down the pub for a pint with your mates?
Well think again, because Westminster Council's new draft licensing policy recommends removing opportunities for ‘vertical drinking’.
London has a great culture of standing outside pubs having a pint after work. Councils need to stop being such killjoys.
