🇬🇧 Most British schoolchildren are taught about Magna Carta.

They are taught it was sealed in twelve fifteen at Runnymede.

They are taught it is the foundation of English liberty.

They are taught it is one of the most important documents in human history.

They are not taught what came next.

They are not taught about the eighty years between twelve fifteen and twelve ninety-five when ordinary Englishmen forced three successive kings to write down, for the first time in any kingdom in medieval Europe, what English law was, what English liberty was, and how an English king must govern.

They are not taught about the Charter of the Forest, which restored the right to graze, gather firewood, and live on common land, and which remained in force for seven hundred and fifty-four years.

They are not taught about the Provisions of Oxford in twelve fifty-eight, often called England's first written constitution, which placed the king under a council of fifteen and required Parliament to meet three times a year.

They are not taught about the Provisions of Westminster in twelve fifty-nine, which subjected the barons themselves to the same law they had forced upon the king.

They are not taught about Simon de Montfort, an earl born in France who died for England, who summoned the first Parliament in English history to include ordinary commoners alongside the great lords.

They are not taught about the Statute of Marlborough in twelve sixty-seven, which is the oldest piece of statute law in the United Kingdom still in force today. ⚖️

Seven hundred and fifty-nine years old.

If you've ever taken a debt to court in England, you've used it. 🏠 If you've ever rented a home, you've been protected by it. 👑 If a creditor can't lawfully drag your possessions into the street to settle what you owe, that's because of a law signed seven hundred and fifty-nine years ago.

They are not taught about the Model Parliament of twelve ninety-five, summoned by Edward the First, which became the shape of every English Parliament since.

Eighty years. Three successive kings. The first written constitution in any kingdom in medieval Europe.
It was not given to them. It was not handed down from God or king or Pope.

✍️ It was written. By Englishmen. For England.

🇬🇧 The British write their own history. They always have.

This one needed more than a thread. The full story is in our video, watch it below 👇

Help us remember who we are. Help us remember every British achievement. 👇🙏

Ricky Gervais on 60 Minutes Makes a Crystal-Clear Case for Free Speech

He put it perfectly: the great thing about freedom of speech is that I can say what I want, and you can say you're offended, and I get to decide whether I care or not.

Because let's be honest, there's nothing you can say that someone, somewhere won't find offensive.

That's why blasphemy laws are so absurd, they're basically trying to protect an all-powerful deity from having its feelings hurt.

At the end of the day, we should be free to criticise any idea.

Just because you're offended doesn't automatically mean you're right.

Spot on, Ricky. Free speech isn't about never upsetting anyone, it's about the right to speak anyway.

@VictoriaZeev @Starlink @AerLingus A private company providing services to its customers, What's wrong with that? Your post implies they have an obligation to the general public. Isn't starlink available in Ireland, if people don't have internet access they could buy it?

@narindertweets @BBC Honestly love, if there was ever a nail in the coffin for the BBC it would be you getting your own show

@narindertweets @iamtomskinner You still sour about QT eh? Shows how much of a race baiting harpy you are if fucking Tom Skinner gets on and you don't 😂

@Heccles94 You don't half talk some shite

@narindertweets @Seb_010101 One they had learnt English they could vote. Sounds like a good system.

@owenjonesjourno Trump is already a billionaire. It wouldn't make sense for him to trade from within.
Have you ever spoken of how Nancy Pelosi became a multimillionaire whilst in Congress?

@Eric_Elliott1 @narindertweets Drawing parallels that doesn't make sense and race-baiting is all she is capable of.
She's an ugly person and so irrelevant and insufferable the likes of Question Time won't even have her on despite her being an ideal box ticking exercise for a BBC panel

[Johnny English @joniuk]

@Heccles94 Behaveeeee 😂

The constituency is only 50% white British. Wait until the May elections and watch the new right wing parties dominate

[Johnny English @joniuk]

@narindertweets Sounds good to me

[Johnny English @joniuk]

@narindertweets "Britain" didn't do anything 😂

That constituency is barely 50% white British. Wait until there's a GE love xx

@ZackPolanski You make me sick
