You are the absolute perfect example of the propaganda I was referring to.

1) The 12,000 figure is from 2023, when The Conservatives were in charge, not Labour.
2) It refers to all arrests under two long-standing UK laws: the Communications Act 2003 and the Malicious Communications Act 1988.
3) Arrests, not convictions or jail.
4) All harmful electronic communictions - could be someone sending a message threatening to kill their ex, could be an email, could be a whatsapp message. A small percentage were for online public posts.

So, now you know that beyond your comment being incredibly factually incorrect, it doesn't even refer to the current government that you have been indoctrinated into hating, do you feel like someone who has been brainwashed by propaganda?

Seeing some of the embarrassingly hateful reactions to Starmer's resignation today, I thought it was worth resharing this.

The level of personal hostility directed at Keir Starmer deserves scrutiny in its own right. Not because he should be immune from criticism, but because the tone and intensity of the attacks tell us something unhealthy about the state of democratic politics.

Starmer is a conventional political figure. Cautious, legalistic, incremental. He frustrates people precisely because he is managerial rather than messianic. Yet the reaction to him often goes far beyond disagreement, tipping into visceral hatred more commonly reserved for authoritarians or demagogues.

Much of this hostility is disconnected from concrete policy. It is not about specific votes, proposals or outcomes, but about projection. A belief that Starmer embodies betrayal, bad faith or hidden malice. That kind of politics runs on suspicion rather than evidence.

This matters because democracy depends on the assumption of good faith among opponents. You can think a leader is wrong, timid, or misguided without believing they are fundamentally illegitimate. Once politics becomes moralised to the point of demonisation, compromise is reframed as treachery and pluralism as weakness.

The pattern is familiar. In fragmented, polarised systems, anger concentrates not on extremists, whose intentions are clear, but on moderates, who disappoint maximalists on all sides. The centre becomes the lightning rod precisely because it resists totalising narratives.

There is also a media and online dynamic at work. Incentives reward outrage, not proportionality. Algorithms favour contempt over analysis. Over time, this creates a political culture in which relentless personal attack feels normal, even virtuous, rather than disgusting.

None of this is a defence of Starmer’s decisions, instincts or record. Those should be argued over robustly as you do in a democracy. The problem is the substitution of critique with hostility and the quiet erosion of democratic norms that follows when political opponents are treated as enemies rather than rivals.

A democracy cannot function if every election is framed as an existential struggle against internal evil. At some point, the target may change, but the damage to trust, restraint and culture remains.

Blackpool Police have launched a manhunt for two men who racially abused a woman and pushed her down a set of stairs at South Pier Promenade in Blackpool on the 29th of May 2026.

It happened around 6 :11 PM.

Let's make them famous.

The replies to this post have put absolutely beyond doubt that the hatred for Keir Starmer is 99% based on misinformation. Just read through them, people spouting the same misinformation they have been repeatedly fed over the last year or so, disproven countless times, but still believed and amplified by so many. This is how easy it is to brainwash millions of people if you have the resources. This is how societies are destroyed.

Did you know that Katie Hopkins defended Adam Johnson, who was sentenced to six years in prison after pleading guilty to one count of grooming and one count of sexual activity with a child?

She wrote a whole article for MailOnline defending him and making excuses for him whilst acknowledging that the victim was only 15 years old. "Yes, the girl in this case was 15. But can we truly define the age of sexual consent by something so arbitrary as a number?"

Katie Hopkins also posted a tweet calling the 15-year-old girl a "slag," which deleted after public backlash.

@goodboyvita @HumzaYousaf Oh, the irony of such a foolish response.

@TonyMichaelX Seems somewhat strange that many of the most obnoxious/toxic comments effectively threatening Starmer on this thread are relatively new American accounts. Musks bots?

🚨 The depravity.

Lewis Bates and Mark Wilson — the Hartlepool sex beasts who abducted a 13-year-old schoolgirl, took her to a remote track and took turns raping her — have been released.

These monsters enticed the girl into a car, drove her to an isolated spot, and subjected her to a half-hour nightmare.

They left her bleeding profusely, barely able to walk. She was physically sick when she got home and had to be taken to hospital.

Sam Hunter helped lure her in and got a lighter sentence.

15 years for gang-raping a child. And now they’re back on the streets.

How many more victims before these monsters are kept locked up for good?

Our girls are not safe while the system keeps letting animals like this out early.

Name them. Shame them. Never forget what they did.

They convinced you that 20 days holiday a year is generous.

That working until you're 67 is normal.

That one full time job just isn't enough to actually live on.

They're making you slaves so they can have 3 castles, 8 yachts and a spaceship.

Former Fox News host Pete Hegseth’s crusade to purge women and people of color from our Armed Forces has never been subtle.

But today, a New York Times exposé revealed exactly how far he’s gone to dismantle the careers and achievements of our finest servicemen and women.

More than a dozen military insiders — both active duty and those already purged — spoke to the Times anonymously to unmask a horrific ongoing attack.

They detailed a process used by Hegseth and his team to halt senior officer advancements for reasons completely unrelated to merit, job performance, or fighting wars.

Hegseth’s efforts are part of a quest to advance his white-and-male centered worldview, facts, history, and actual service be damned.

In the absence of any such evidence, insiders confirmed that he has used his position to withhold promotions from qualified, decorated veterans. The Times cited several enraging examples:

• Last fall, Hegseth ordered Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll to remove two Black and two female officers from a 29-person promotion list. Driscoll repeatedly refused, citing their decades of exemplary service. In March, Hegseth bypassed him, removed their names, and sent the modified list to the White House.

• In total, Hegseth has removed 32 officers from Air Force and Navy one- and two-star promotion lists. He also pulled the only Black officer and the only female officer from a Marine Corps list, leaving their promotions in limbo.

• Vice Adm. Sara Joyner, a highly decorated three-star fighter pilot, saw her advancement stalled over a 2021 Navy recruiting ad where she said, "I’m not just a girl with a dream. I’m a sailor with one." Hegseth deemed the line a "big problem." Joyner has since retired.

• Rear Adm. Stephen D. Barnett was recommended for a promotion after successfully managing the aftermath of a massive Navy fuel spill in Hawaii. Hegseth blocked his advancement after Barnett participated in a Navy-sponsored Pride event back in 2018.

It is an outrage to watch a media personality whose greatest battles have been with hangovers intentionally harm the careers of people who risked everything to keep America safe. Hegseth’s actions are insult to all who have served and a risk to national security.
