🚨NEWS: Widow who bought fly tipped wasteland and transformed it into a farm for schoolchildren is ordered to tear it all down by jobsworth council
Tara Dexter 57 spent two years clearing the rubbish filled plot in Sidlesham West Sussex and creating a micro farm that hosted local primary school pupils
Chichester District Council refused retrospective planning permission and has ordered her to remove the buildings planters and hardstanding within four months
What a bunch of absolute wankers @ChichesterDC are!!! someone does some good and you just want to tear it own?
Scumbags!!
I work the front desk at a small doctor’s office, and I wish people could see what happens on the other side of the phone. Every day, older patients call us confused.
They are told to use the patient portal, upload documents, check lab results online, fill out forms before the visit, and confirm everything through a link. Some of them do not know what a portal is.
Some do not have a smartphone.
Some have one, but they are afraid to click the wrong thing.
Last week, a man in his late 80s called about his test results.
He said, “Ma’am, I don’t mean to bother you, but the computer says I have a message and I don’t know how to open it.”
He sounded ashamed.
That broke my heart.
He should not have to feel ashamed for needing a human being.
Technology can be helpful. I understand that.
But when people who built this country are made to feel helpless because everything became a login and a password, we have gone too far.
Not everything needs to be an app.
Not every answer should be hidden behind a screen.
Sometimes people need a voice.
A patient person.
A real human who says, “Don’t worry, I can help you.”
Progress should not leave seniors behind.
Because one day, the world will move faster than us too.
And I hope someone is kind enough to slow down.

URGENT: Sepehr Amirzadeh, a young medical student in Iran, has reportedly been sentenced to death after treating wounded protesters.
I am calling on every doctor in Iran and around the world: please help save your fellow future doctor.
His name is Sepehr Amirzadeh. He is a medical student. He reportedly faces execution in Iran.
His “crime”? He treated wounded protesters during January uprising. He tried to save lives.
When people were bleeding, Sepehr did not ask about their politics. He did what medicine demands: he helped the wounded.
For that act of humanity, security forces raided his home, arrested him and now he may be sent to the gallows.
Doctors of the world, please do not let him face the executioner alone. Be his voice. Save Sepehr.

🚨 SAD: PENSION FIRM BLOCKS TERMINALLY ILL FALKLANDS VETERAN FROM HIS OWN 100,000 POUNDS!
Want to hear how disgusting this system is?
Andrew Rossiter is a Royal Navy Falklands War veteran who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and given just months to live.
A corporate pension firm is refusing to hand over his own 104,000 pounds retirement fund, making a dying hero jump through endless bureaucratic hoops!
As Andrew rightly said, it feels like they are dragging it out hoping he dies so they never have to pay out.
This brave veteran served his country, saved every penny, and now needs our help to get what he earned.
We need to make so much noise that EQ Retirement Solutions has zero choice but to pay him today!
RT and SHARE this everywhere to back this war hero and force them to give Andrew his money NOW! 🇬🇧🔥
I Reposted this video the other day & hardly anyone saw it, so I am posting it again.
A UK Gov invited foreign criminal, celebrates in a 4 star hotel room, surrounded by PILES of OUR TAX money.
While a Englishman is left destitute & in despair on the streets, possibly on the verge of suicide..
How is THIS not CRIMINAL!?
For our own Gov't to do this?

@thameswater recently told me that due to “fiscal constraints”, they can’t afford to fix all of the illegal outfalls on the River Roding by 2030 (already a more than fair deadline in the circumstances I feel).
This single one million pound payment to their finance chief would, alone, be enough to stop a billion litres of raw sewage a year entering the river in Ilford. Which other companies do we allow to commit serious crimes because they’ve taken money that should have been used to ensure their company complies with the law & given it to their execs instead? How long until the government says “no more” to these chancers & puts Thames Water out of its misery?

Jeremy Clarkson has been refused permission to sell food he grew himself, twice. In the same window, central government overruled a Lincolnshire council to put solar panels across 1,214 hectares of grazing land, an area the size of Heathrow.
Run the two columns side by side, because the pattern is the whole story.
He asked to open a restaurant in his own lambing shed. Refused.
He asked for a car park for the people already blocking the lane. Refused.
He asked to sell food produced more than sixteen miles away. Capped at sixteen.
He asked for a barn to store his own harvest, so he would not have to sell at whatever price August offered. Full application required.
He asked about the restaurant again. Enforcement notice, and six weeks judged ample to put the building back as it was.
Now the other column.
Had he covered those same fields in solar panels, the council could have refused and been overruled from Whitehall, as Lincolnshire was in October 2025.
Had he grown maize to feed an anaerobic digester, nobody would have written to anybody.
Had he taken £532 a hectare from Defra to grow a legume fallow, he would have been paid to leave a crop standing that may not be harvested, grazed or sold. Defra cut that rate this year and gave the reason in writing: it had become attractive enough to take land out of food production.
Had he sold the lot to a data centre, a battery park or a Chinese pig unit, all four of which he listed in his column last week, the paperwork would have moved considerably faster than a farm shop's.
There is your planning system. Every use of English farmland is easier to permit than farming.
Two hundred of his acres grew nothing at all this year, and the queue of people who want that ground for something other than food is already forming.
He is not being stopped from developing the countryside. He is being stopped from feeding it.
mbappe and kane (or why not, bellingham) now have the opportunity to end the third place playoff forever by leathering in ten goals each in the first 5 minutes then continuing the match as normal. golden boot rankings destroyed, wc goal stats fucked, they would have to stop it
So @Tesco why are you adding FOLIC ACID to your allegedly 'finest' WHOLEMEAL bread? A: FA is exempt in wholemeal & B: it actively fuels cancer, plus a whole host of people have to actively try & avoid it as advised by NHS. As a CANCER patient, I really would like an answer
🚨BREAKING: UK GOVERNMENT TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUTUBE ALGORITHM
This is pure authoritarianism
Keir Starmer's/Andy Burnham's Government is set to control the YouTube algorithm by LAW stipulating that they must push "APPROVED CONTENT" to UK Citizens
And independent voices who criticise the government will be pushed to the back of the queue making it harder for people to find
YouTube has acknowledged this is happening
This must be stopped
🚨🇬🇧 The UK government has responded to the petition regarding folic acid in flour.
The UK Government is forcing synthetic folic acid into all non-wholemeal wheat flour from the end of 2026.
This affects 70 million people to supposedly prevent just 200 neural tube defect cases a year.
It’s not just bread it means almost every everyday product made with white or brown flour: pasta, pizza bases, cakes, biscuits, pastries, pies, crackers, and most processed baked goods. Men and children get zero benefit, yet studies have linked higher folic acid intake to increased prostate cancer risk in men.
They’re choosing mass medication of the entire population through our staple foods instead of targeted supplements for women who actually need it.
This is being forced on us without real choice. It will appear in the ingredients list, but there’ll be no clear warning on the front of the pack.
Natural folate from food is one thing this unnatural synthetic chemical is another.
Sign the petition in the comments we need to at least have a debate on this.
Please share with as many people as possible.
Britain is more than 100% self-sufficient in lamb. We grow more than we eat and export the surplus.
Sit with that, because it is rare. Roughly 85% self-sufficient in beef. Effectively 100% in milk. Around 90% in eggs. The animal food on a British plate was almost certainly born and raised here, a great deal of it on upland pasture that can grow nothing else: no wheat, no veg, just grass and the animals that turn it into food. Field to plate, the journey runs to tens of miles.
Now look at the half of the trolley you were told was the virtuous one. January strawberries from Egypt. Peppers from Spain and Morocco. Winter leaves from Israel. Green beans from Kenya. Blueberries from Peru. The beans and the berries come by air, which is roughly fifty times more carbon-heavy per kilo than the same load sent by sea, to sit in a plastic shell beside a little flag and the word "fresh."
Britain feeds itself in meat, milk and eggs off its own ground. It is the salad and the soft fruit that have to be flown in from the far side of the world.
Worth remembering which half of that plate you were taught to apologise for.
A stunning reminder of why we cannot give up on our rivers yesterday, as I stumbled across an adult eel on the Roding for the first time, lounging in the shallows in the shade of a council tower block & within earshot of the North Circular.
This now rare & magical sight used to be common, until eel populations crashed on the Roding in the 1980’s & have not recovered. Seeking to understand & reverse this population crash should surely be a key role for the governments environmental regulator, but as usual they have done nothing to improve water quality or remove barriers to eel migration. Worse, they are actively blocking my efforts to help the eel population recover.
Ordinarily, baby eels (elvers) for restocking are expensive to buy. However, I managed to secure a kind donation of elvers from fishermen on the River Severn (where the elvers often get stuck behind barriers on the river). I applied for my @EnvAgency restocking permit like a good boy & all they had to do to help recover eel populations on the Roding was to say yes. Perhaps predictably, my application was rejected, because there was no positive evidence that reintroducing eels to the Roding would be a good thing. Perhaps most annoyingly, my application to restock eels on the Roding was rejected because reintroducing them would interfere with the EA’s monitoring of their continued decline.
I asked what would happen if I went ahead & released the elvers anyway & was told that the EA would fine me up to £50,000. Yet another example of the malevolent uselessness of the EA: obsessed with procedure, but will do absolutely sod all to actually reverse the decline in our rivers.
Almost Five years ago I was a healthy, very active man in the prime of my life.
An artist by heart and soul who had traveled to over 100 countries, maintained peak health and fitness, and ran or hiked miles in nature almost every day. Simple, full, and free.
Then on July 21, 2021, I received the Moderna COVID vaccine.
I felt it the moment it entered my body.
Within days a cytokine storm triggered a rare neuromuscular disease and multi-system damage. I went from the ICU to six brutal weeks in hospital, and nothing has been the same since.
Today I am mostly bedridden, confined to my bedroom. I cannot work. I cannot drive. I cannot grocery shop. I can barely walk more than short distances on my best days. I have not left my house further than a quarter mile in years.
Every single day I endure ischemic stroke-like episodes, a partially paralyzed diaphragm that makes breathing a struggle, severe neuropathic pain, esophagus and larynx spasms, severe swallowing issues that make eating difficult, severe trigeminal and occipital neuralgia, crushing fatigue, dysphagia that turns eating into an hour-long ordeal, neuro degeneration and neuromuscular disease diagnosed as ALS unspecified, and waves of symptoms that force me to be bedridden.
Doctors mostly dismissed me as psychosomatic, anxious, or worse. One diagnosis I had to sue to have removed from my record. I spent over $60,000 chasing every treatment the injured community has tried. Nothing gave lasting relief. I became my own doctor , turning to sunlight, grounding, circadian alignment, nature, and my faith in God, which is what carries me when the body wants to quit.
For three years I have spoken out , documenting my journey, writing on X and Substack, calling for acknowledgment, proper diagnostic codes, real care, and accountability for what was done to us. I stand with every vaccine-injured person who has been denied, dismissed, and abandoned.
Yet suddenly the story has gone silent.
People are no longer talking about the people who became severely disabled after one shot. Support has dwindled. The institutions that told us it was safe have offered no honest accounting. No real acknowledgment. No justice.
The reality is that we did not recover when the headlines ended.
We are still here. I am still here.
Still mostly bedridden.
2026 has been brutal.
Still fighting every single day.
Still waiting for the truth to be told.
Please share this. Not for sympathy, but because thousands of vaccine-injured people deserve to know they have not been forgotten.
My time here in X soon comes to an end and halt, yet I am grateful to have met such wonderful people and the support I have received . I know there is not much you can do for us, but I am very grateful for all the absolutely amazing and wonderful prayers and words I have received. Thank you from my heart.
Prayers is what this worlds needs more than ever.
Please don’t stop believing and dreaming of a better world.
God is not finished with us yet.
May God Bless you and peace be with you.
