@sonadowglazer Not really when being a nun is a choice, monks dress the same and the dress and reservation of nuns and monks is more about overall modesty and piety than a sexual shaming of women and girls from the moment they’re 9 or 10
@CHAARMM__ But she’s right they never officially cut it off? Lorenzo just gave up because “she doesn’t want me”. Do you actually not remember or just enjoy lying about Jas?
All the male centered audience this show has lets boys get away with anything being like oh he’s just cheeky and not malicious it’s ok that he hurt the girls feelings. But a woman breathes wrong and she’s public enemy number 1.

mind you kavan was being a horn dog over tina and tonguing down 4 girls’ mouths at the sleepover villa but he wants to get pissy about jas receiving a shot in her mouth in a challenge. i do not wanna hear anyone say jasmine is the one wrong here #loveisland
@tashalxve the way this isn’t true at all. jas has made it so clear that she doesn’t care about that kind of stuff like with the wandering eye comment and everything she def would have cheered! 😭
People who don’t watch Love Island are often surprised to hear that I do but only because they think it’s like The OC or something when really it’s like the Stanford prison experiment
This clip right here showcases what's wrong with these men. Scratching her back is considered "relationship stuff," but kissing her is somehow just part of getting to know someone? unless they're getting access to a woman's body, they don't care about the woman. #loveislanduk
In England, you're allowed to clear about 20 metres of silt and rubbish out of a river on your own. Anything past that needs a permit from the Environment Agency. Paul Powlesland's volunteers cleared a 250-metre stretch of the River Roding with a hired digger, which is why a barrister who hauled out 200 bags of trash is now under criminal investigation.
The Roding runs through east London. Powlesland lives on a boat moored on it, and for years he and a group of volunteers have pulled out shopping trolleys, needles, old appliances, even weapons. Kingfishers, herons and dragonflies came back to water that used to be buried under junk. This one job took 10 days and a digger that cost £1,000 to hire.
The rule that caught him is oddly specific. Under England's water rules, scooping silt off the bottom of a river the agency officially manages counts as a "flood risk activity", and the law treats that the same as building a structure in the water. Do it without a permit and the offence carries up to two years in prison. The agency says it is also looking at waste the volunteers left on the floodplain. Powlesland is an environmental lawyer who has used these exact laws to protect rivers and trees, and a conviction could cost him his licence to practise.
The agency's reasoning isn't unreasonable. Dredging done badly can push flooding onto people downstream and wreck the habitat that protected animals need, which is what the permit is meant to prevent. The 20-metre allowance is there for small jobs. And no decision to prosecute has actually been made.
While investigators were knocking on a volunteer's door within a week of his cleanup, water companies discharged raw sewage into England's rivers and seas for a combined 3.6 million hours in 2024, more than 400 years of spilling packed into a single year. Only 14% of English rivers are in good health. Between 2015 and 2025, the Environment Agency investigated water companies for pollution 11,474 times. Fifty-eight of those ended in a prosecution. For serious pollution over the last five years, the number of water companies actually taken to court and convicted is zero.
So the message comes out backwards. Spend ten days and a thousand pounds making a river cleaner and an officer turns up within the week. Pump sewage into that same river for years and the chance of seeing a courtroom is close to zero.
Simba is a nasty person. Lying to all the boys that Angelista told him not to kiss Mica when HE set that boundary not her. He wants the whole villa to believe she’s desperately holding him back when she’s been calm this whole time. #LoveIsland#LoveIslandUK
