Every late summer, Krankbrother are allowed to fence off the most serene corner of the park for a dance music event. They now want an extra day, and 20% more attendees. Please object on the following grounds:

The descent of The Times (editor Tony Gallagher) to post-truth depths previously plumbed by the Sun (ex-editor Tony Gallagher), Telegraph (ex-editor Tony Gallagher) & Mail (ex-deputy editor Tony Gallagher) is close to complete.
(He also has a cameo in How They Broke Britain.)

the coolest psychoanalytic discovery is that people unwittingly communicate things about themselves by accidentally inducing feelings in each other. and that this goes both ways between all people in all relationships. and most people are not aware of either direction.

Hundreds of women will be spending Christmas in a refuge after escaping domestic abuse. Let’s show them they’re not alone.

Southampton Row, Holborn: this building always brings joy

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

Serena was only 14 yrs old when nude videos of her were uploaded to P*rnhub, sending her on a spiral of trauma, including suicide attempts, homelessness, & drug addiction.

She recounted during parliamentary testimony how she begged for her abuse videos to be removed from P*rnhub over and over, and was ignored or hassled. Even when they were taken down the videos would be uploaded again.

Serena is now suing P*rnhub in federal court.

On Sept. 1 new evidence was uncovered in legal discovery that proves P*rnhub had only one person reviewing flagged videos only 5 days a week. They had a backlog of over 700,000 flagged videos and a policy to not even put a video in line for review until it had over 15 flags.

The depositions also proved P*rnhub hid child sexual abuse they knew about from authorities for over 13 years and employees are on the record saying management did not want them to enforce rules that they put on paper against criminal content.

Hold them accountable. #Traffickinghub

Evening Standard on Parkland Walk and @haringeycouncil plans to resurface it. Please NO, we don't trust the council - let ecologists lead this project! @Friends_of_PW @FinsParkFriends @XRHaringey @HaringeyCP @HaringeyGreens @HaringeyGoGreen @WoodlandTrust https://t.co/Son6Hp5PrW

AS @haringeycouncil promote #peopleneedparks we do wonder how this message squares with great swathes of @FinsburyParkLdn being stolen from us for weeks over the summer by commercial promoters @LiveNationUK @krankbrother & @WirelessFest @perayahmet @ChestnutsPark @FinsParkFriends

[Haringey Tree Protectors @JustPlaneNews]

For @krankbrother brothers Kieran and Danny it's all about the optics of their event in @FinsburyParkLdn. When @haringeycouncil events team allowed them this space 5 years ago, they weren't prioritising ecology. But we're now in a climate crisis. @CatherineWest1 @Natures_Voice

[Haringey Tree Protectors @JustPlaneNews]

How events impact our park, just where we planted a hedge. This is crap for the soil & trees being stamped on by 8000 folk behind the fences. Each summer our park is stolen by @WirelessFest @krankbrother for 5weeks.This space grab is unethical in a climate crisis. @perayahmet

@janebramley Grundy criminality. Bang on. So done with it.

@paulwtrueman @BBCPM It was a total car crash. Took me a few minutes to realise it wasn’t a parody.
