I keep hearing the left say that Robert Kenyon is ‘just a plumber’ and therefore he is not suitable to be a politician. But the same people think this plumber would make the perfect politician… right?

Very sad.

Such a gentleman, kind & naturally very funny. We only worked together once, but he was a giggler on & off-set & I just adored him.

Too soon, far too soon.

🚨(1)BREAKING: Christian community police officer wins settlement after being forced out of his role for questioning and criticising Islam during diversity training.

Luke Salmons, who has been supported by the Christian Legal Centre, was suspended for six months, forced to resign and put on a police barring list after he had questioned radical Islam in a training session.

He had been told that the session was a 'safe place' for discussion, but after expressing his beliefs, the consequences were devastating.

After taking legal action, his case has now been settled on confidential terms, however his story raises serious concerns about free speech and religious freedom in UK policing.

Two Stories. Two Institutions. Two Employees Fired For Stating The Obvious. One Thread Connecting Them Both: Institutional Capture.

Luke Salmons was a police community support officer with North Yorkshire Police. During a mandatory diversity training day devoted almost entirely to Islam, trainers walked up and down the room chanting Islam is a religion of peace. Officers were told it was a safe space and that there was no such thing as a bad question. Salmons asked a Muslim sergeant what he thought about Hamas terrorist attacks carried out in the name of Islam. The sergeant happily discussed it and invited him for coffee. Two colleagues later found a book about Islam in Salmons' locker, photographed it and reported him as a risk. An inspector told him I don't like your beliefs and suspended him for gross misconduct.

This was not the first time his Christian faith had been treated as a problem. Earlier that year a superintendent had asked him to write an article about Easter for the force intranet. An inspector intervened and told him he could make no reference to the Bible.

Salmons put it precisely. There is no way that inspector would have taken a Muslim officer into a room and said I don't like your beliefs. North Yorkshire Police has never disputed that. A Christian officer barred from mentioning the Bible while a training day chanted Islam is a religion of peace. In the same institution. In the same year. The silence is the answer.

Sean McGinty was a presenter on BBC Radio Lancashire. On October 7th 2023 Hamas carried out the largest massacre of Jewish people since the Holocaust. Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organisation in Britain. McGinty posted on social media that Hamas was a terrorist organisation guilty of sadistic killings. That is the word any decent person would use who has bothered to look at the evidence, he said. The BBC sacked him for gross misconduct. The BBC does not call Hamas a terrorist organisation in its own coverage despite it being proscribed in British law. A journalist was dismissed for stating a legal fact that his own employer declines to state.

The tribunal also found that his description of trans nonsense and gender madness constituted a breach of impartiality. The BBC that cannot call a proscribed terrorist organisation a terrorist can identify anti-trans sentiments with forensic precision and treat them as a disciplinable offence. McGinty now works as a gardener.

The connection between these two cases is ideology. The same progressive institutional capture that produced the Hampshire Race Action Plan, the Metropolitan Police neutrality myth, the College of Policing practice bank and the officers who handcuffed Henry Nowak has produced a BBC that protects Hamas from the word terrorist and a police force that protects Islam from questions while preventing a Christian officer from mentioning the Bible on Easter.

Salmons identified the mechanism precisely before he was silenced for identifying it. People are weaponising DEI for their own advantage. People know they will get a heightened response from the police if they say it's to do with their religion or sexuality. That is a description of exactly what Vickrum Digwa did on a Southampton street on the evening of December 3rd 2025. He knew the trump card. He played it. It worked.

The Islamist left alliance in Britain's institutions does not announce itself. It does not need to. It simply fires the people who name it and promotes the framework that protects it. Luke Salmons named it. Sean McGinty named it. Both paid the price. The institutions that punished them have not been held accountable. They never are.

Luke Salmons and Sean McGinty. One Asked Questions About Islam. One Called Hamas Terrorists. Both Lost Their Jobs.

And guess what? The world’s largest offshore wind farm (with wind turbines bigger than the Eiffel Tower) currently being planned on the east coast of Scotland is very close to the massive 600MW energy guzzling AI data centre proposed in Auchertool in Fife….just a coincidence obviously…

And guess what? They need the prime farmland to plaster solar panels & wind turbines across thousands of acres to power the AI data centres (which they also need the farmland for). Join the dots…

[Christian @InTheTrenchesUK]

To the Metropolitan Police,

You were the gold standard. The model every nation copied. When Scotland Yard spoke, criminals listened. That badge meant integrity. It meant courage. It meant the law applied equally, without fear or favour.

Look at you now.

You are a punchline. A cautionary tale. A force that clears up fewer than one in ten burglaries while your officers film TikTok videos in uniform. You arrested a man in Lancashire at dawn for a Facebook post in 2024 while grooming gangs operated in Rochdale for years with barely a raised eyebrow. You invented non-crime hate incidents so you could harass pensioners for wrongthink while real victims wait on hold.

You kneeled for mobs in 2020 while statues fell and businesses burned. You stood aside while extremists marched with impunity, then raided homes over memes. You have turned the oldest police force in the world into a politicised enforcement squad for the narrative, not the public.

You chose diversity dashboards over clear-up rates. You chose community engagement over enforcement. You chose the approval of NGOs and Twitter mobs over the safety of the people who pay your wages. You chose feelings over facts, and political safety over actual policing.

You did not lose your way. You sold it. Slowly, deliberately, one diversity training course at a time, one apology tweet at a time, one decision to stand down while crime happened in front of you.

The British people see you now. We see the double standards. We see the collapse in basic standards. We see a force that looks more like political commissars than police officers. We see officers who remember their oath sidelined while the ideologues get promoted.

You wanted to be political enforcers. Congratulations. You got your wish. Now you get treated like political operatives. No more benefit of the doubt. No more automatic respect. You burned that.

The mask is off. The receipts are published. The record is being kept.

We are watching.

Governments enforce plastic bottles with tethered caps, banning of plastic straws and gas boilers and blame cow burps for climate change…

Governments also enable massive AI data centres to guzzle up enormous quantities of energy and water.

Lab Grown Meat On Supermarket Shelves?

The FSA is fast-tracking approval for lab-grown meat in UK supermarkets — aiming for early 2027. But their own documents reveal consumer acceptance hasn’t increased, there’s no labelling framework, and the nutritional profile is “as yet unclear.” As a primary producer, I’ve read the receipts. Here’s what they’re not telling you.

[Jim Chimirie 🇬🇧 @JChimirie66677]

Peel's Founding Philosophy Has Guided British Policing For Two Centuries. We Have Spent Fifty Years Dismantling It.

In 1829 Sir Robert Peel established the Metropolitan Police on a founding philosophy that has guided British policing for nearly two centuries. That philosophy was later codified into nine principles known as the Peelian Principles and is still taught to every new recruit today. Those principles contain everything British policing needs to know about what went wrong on a Southampton street on December 4th 2025.

Principle two. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent on public approval of their existence, actions and behaviour and on their ability to secure and maintain public respect.

Principle five. The police seek and preserve public favour not by catering to public opinion but by constantly demonstrating absolute impartial service to the law.

Absolute impartial service to the law. Not racial equity. Not colour awareness. Not white privilege training. Not disproportionality monitoring. Not community sensitivity. Absolute impartial service to the law. Every person. Every community. Every accusation. The same standard. Without exception.

Principle seven. The police are the public and the public are the police. Not the police are the ethnic minority communities and the ethnic minority communities are the police. The public. All of them. Equally.

Principle nine. The test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder, not the visible evidence of police action in dealing with it. Not the reduction of disproportionality in stop and search. Not the diversity of the workforce. Not the number of officers completing unconscious bias training. The absence of crime and disorder. That is the test.

Now place those principles alongside the documents governing Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary on the night Henry Nowak died.

The Hampshire Race Action Plan commits to pursuing offenders who cause harm to ethnic minority communities specifically. Not all communities. Ethnic minority communities specifically. The NPCC guidance tells officers that a commitment to racial equity does not mean treating everyone the same or being colour blind. The Metropolitan Police race action plan informs officers that neutrality is a myth and that their whiteness prevents impartiality. The Hampshire Inclusion Matters diversity course made nearly twenty percent of officers afraid they would be rejected for saying the wrong thing. The University of Reading noted that officers who did not respond well to the training may benefit from further intervention, monitoring or coaching.

Peel said absolute impartial service to the law. The Metropolitan Police said neutrality is a myth. Peel said the police are the public. The NPCC said the police cannot be colour blind. Peel said the test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder. The College of Policing said the test is reducing disproportionality in the use of police powers against ethnic minorities.

These are not compatible frameworks. They are opposing philosophies. One treats every citizen as equal before the law. The other treats citizens differently according to their ethnicity and the accusations they make. One produced two centuries of policing by consent. The other produced the officers who handcuffed Henry Nowak.

Alexis Boon, the chief constable of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, described the national outcry as a furore that had been whipped up. He does not accept the term two tier policing.

Principle two. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent on public approval of their existence, actions and behaviour and on their ability to secure and maintain public respect.

The public approval is gone. The respect has been lost. The chief constable who cannot see why has not read the principles he was taught on his first day.

The answer has been there since 1829. What changed was the decision to abandon it.
