Yesterday in the UK, Bristol police arrested this child under the Terrorism Act for holding a sign with the words “plasticine action group” on it.
For anyone who’s unsure, it’s not yet illegal to mention plasticine action, Morph, Wallace & Gromit or Chicken Run.

Remember when Musk challenged the World Food Program to explain how he could solve world hunger with just $6 billion, they did, and he just completely ignored them?
Zack Polanski's speech at the Together Alliance march
"Looking at this crowd I see unity, I see solidarity, I see love. I see we are together"
"Look around. Look at the people around you. We are intergenerational. We are white, we are black, we are Asian, we are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, non-faiths. We are community"
"And together, we will win"
"The tide is turning is turning. There have been dark times. I know people have been scared and have been afraid"
"But days like this are here to send a message"
"A message to Tommy Robinson. To Nigel Farage. To those appease who appease them"
"When we turn up in our hundreds and our thousands, in our hundreds of thousands, we are unstoppable"
"We see what's happening in the United States. Children snatched in the streets. People shot in cold blood. We see the war mongering. And the far right see that as their blueprint"
"But people in this country have seen Reform UK for who they really are"
"They would have dragged us into this illegal and unpopular war with Iran"
"And we say today, this is not in our name, this is not our war"
"And looking out today I see so many flags and so many slogans"
"I know we are here for our migrant communities, for our trans communities, for the Palestinians, our struggles are interconnected, and we stand in solidarity"
"There's three things we have to do"
"First. We must not give an inch to the Daily Mail, to the rightwing hacks, to the people that spread hate and division. We will defeat you"
"Second. We say to Reform UK, we know exactly who you are. You are climate denying, Trump-loving, NHS dismantling, corporate stooges"
"Finally. We have to tackle the cost of living. It is time to lower people's bills. It is time to tax billionaires. Nationalise the water companies. Rent controls. Make sure we have the energy cap, so people aren't chosing between heating and eating"
"More than anything, today is a march and it does not stop here. This is just the beginning"
"Local elections are coming in just a few weeks time. We will defeat hate"
"It's time to make hope normal again"
*Audience erupts in cheer*
Zack Polanski at Trans Mission tonight,
"Are you ready to make hope normal again?"
"For hope to defeat hate?"
"Are you ready to celebrate trans joy?"
"I'm a politicians and I want to say on behalf of all politicians, I'm sorry, we're all let you down"
"So tonight, let's be as clear as we possibly can"
"Trans rights are human rights"
"Trans men are men, trans women are women"
"And non-binary people exist"
"Politicians have tried to blame, tried to distracted"
"Tonight I am here to say, we will not blame, we will not be distracted"
"As a gay man I know when they come for one of us they come for all of us, and we will all stand together"
🚨 NEW: The Green Party responds to Donald Trump's decision to impose tariffs on the UK and others over Greenland
"Donald Trump treats the international stage like a schoolyard playground, attempting to bully and brute force other countries into compliance with his imperialist agenda. The unhinged President’s latest threat to impose tariffs on the UK and a swathe of our European allies is an outrageous abuse of power and a direct attack on the principle of national self-determination, treating the future of Greenland as if it were a piece of spoils to be bought and sold.
"The UK must not be cowed. In an attempt to uphold Britain’s so-called “special relationship” with the US, the UK Government has continuously appeased and emboldened the increasingly erratic President as he pursues a dangerous agenda of naked geopolitical vanity. This cannot continue. Chasing the White House’s favour will not secure Britain’s economic future; it leaves us exposed to the whims of a man with no respect for international law and order"
this is a slap in the face to every single victim out there who’s went through this and similar.
reform don’t care about anything unless it will put more money in their mates pockets. shame on every single one of them as well as anyone who still supports them.
Some queer friends visited New York recently and they went to the Harry Potter store. Another friend of mine recently commented that she wanted to see the cursed child. Really sucks to see how many people just simply don’t give a fuck about trans people when it comes down to it
I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian.
Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg during their conference.
Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say?
