Friday: Muslim man stabs 2 in NYC while yelling "Allahu Akbar!"

Saturday: Muslim man drives car through Gay Pride parade in Germany.

Monday: Muslim man stabs 3 in Paris including a pregnant woman.

Islam is doing a really bad job so far this week at being the religion of peace.

English football has had no hesitation embracing political messaging when it aligns with certain approved causes. Clubs kneeled for Black Lives Matter. Players wear rainbow laces for Pride. The Premier League actively promotes LGBTQ+ campaigns. We’re told this is about inclusion, values, and moral responsibility and questioning it is treated as backward or intolerant.

But when a club owner raises concerns about mass immigration particularly after repeated, horrific crimes that have shaken communities the reaction is instant outrage. Sponsors panic. Commentators moralize. The same institutions that claim to value open discussion suddenly demand silence.

That contradiction is glaring.

If football is going to position itself as a moral authority and a vehicle for social activism, then it cannot selectively decide which political viewpoints are acceptable and which must be crushed. Either the sport stays neutral, or it allows genuine diversity of opinion. What we’re seeing instead is ideological gatekeeping.

Many fans are tired of being told that one set of political positions is virtuous and mandatory, while another set shared by millions of ordinary citizens is beyond the pale. That isn’t inclusion. It’s selective tolerance dressed up as progress.

And people are starting to notice.

“Ruben Amorim is too defensive”
“Why do we set up so negatively”
“If we played a back 4 we’d be so much better”

Let’s have a look at the actual reality of Ruben Amorims Manchester Utd attacking performances this season. Hmmm something isn’t adding up…

Not Defensive Holding (watch #7 vs Diggs in the middle) vs Defensive Holding on Woodson (#31 vs #5 Palmer).

The Diggs play was the 4th down play for the Pats offense at the end of the game.

Joey Barton has been given six-months in custody, suspended for 18 months, for sending six "grossly offensive" social media posts.

Huw Edwards was given a six-month prison sentence, suspended for two years for indecent images of children.

The UK “justice” system for you.

This is 2025 - there should be a way for English football fans to watch whichever prem game they want at 15.00 on a Saturday.

When I was a chairman in the league, the blackout perhaps served a purpose. Now? No. Outdated and in today's digital age, it really doesn't work - I think we all know why that is...

Fans all over the world can watch whatever game they like, but English fans are stuck with these ludicrous rules. Makes no sense and it's patronising.

Let's ditch the 3pm blackout and give fans the choice.

Can’t wait for Gary Neville to say the reason Jewish fans aren’t allowed in Birmingham is because of angry, middle-aged, white men.

[Tim Farron @timfarron]

What??? Utterly appalling. ‘We can’t have Jews watching football, people might get violent towards them’. Are we seriously saying that we are incapable of protecting football fans from racism? I’m flabbergasted. This is shameful.

Scientist and author Gregg Braden: "Climate change is a fact... It's also a fact that humans are not causing it."

"Is there more CO₂ in the atmosphere now than there was 10 years, 20, 50, 100 years ago? The answer is absolutely yes. Is it a bad thing?
The answer is no."

"Is it the most we've ever had? We're right about 440 parts per million right now. In geologic history... the Jurassic [had] over a thousand parts per million. Triassic, 2,000 parts per million."

"The Earth was lush. The Earth was green. Life was abundant during that time."

Remember a few weeks ago when parents protested outside the Epping Hotel because they’d heard that a resident there had sexually assaulted a girl?

And remember how a bunch of people with "Stand up to Racism" banners turned up to protest against those parents?

Well, it turns out the parents were right. That man has now been convicted of sexually assaulting more than one person.

So to recap,
Stand Up To Racism supported a rapist. They protested against parents who were trying to protect their children from a rapist.

They did this because the people protesting the rape of women and girls were working class and white therefor they were automatically seen as racist.

This is the same story we've seen happen across the UK for the last 50 years. Working class people are not just not listened to. They are actively shouted down and vilified just for wanted to keep their children safe.

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

Parents should not be fined for taking their children out of school, who otherwise have good attendance, for a time-limited family break.

I've written to all headteachers in my constituency today asking for them to apply some common sense.

A very positive response so far.

@campbellclaret Now do some research on the fact human beings cannot change their biological sex & allowing males in to a sports category for females is unfair & therefore cheating them out of their hard fought for rights & opportunities

I've never been more convinced that we need to scrap the licence fee, defund the BBC and let the people decide.

If the BBC is as brilliant as we're all constantly told, it should thrive under a subscription service.

I won't be paying.

"They wear miniskirts and go to clubs. The next morning, they claim they were raped. We forbid underage stuff—it's disgusting. My brother isn't to blame; it's social services!"

Reporter:
But some of these girls are just 12 and from children's homes?

They cover for their tribe.
