Young male activists working for Rupert Lowe / Restore hang out with Neo Nazis at white supremacy summits. Bad people doing bad things in Makerfield hoodwinking good people. Voters will realise soon - but it may be too late.. mol.im/a/15897789

Former UK PM Lizz Truss argues that mass immigration is being weaponised as a means of deliberately undermining the nation state, as part of a broader agenda to destroy Western civilisation. "We're seeing left-wing politicians wanting to encourage immigration to essentially undermine the basis of our society and undermine the basis of Western civilisation." "They want to undermine the family. They want to undermine the nation state." "And people in Britain are saying 'we've had enough of this'... And the reaction by Keir Starmer is to arrest those people and put them in jail."

In 1840 an American slave ship ran aground in the Bahamas. On British ground, the 38 people below deck could not be owned. 🇬🇧 Free Black boatmen rowed out, magistrates came aboard, and all 38 walked ashore free. 19 October 1840. The Hermosa, a schooner out of Richmond, Virginia, bound for the slave markets of New Orleans. Below deck, 38 enslaved people. Her papers listed them as cargo. She struck a reef off Abaco, in the Bahamas. British ground. Bahamian boatmen rowed out through the surf, free Black men who worked these reefs for a living, and carried all 38 safe to Nassau. Britain had abolished slavery 6 years before. The captain refused to let them ashore. He called for another ship to carry them back to bondage. Then British magistrates came aboard, armed men at their backs. No fleet. No proclamation. A local court doing its ordinary work. In Virginia, paper made those 38 people property. On British ground, no paper on Earth could. One by one, 38 people stepped ashore at Nassau. Free. The owners demanded them back for years. They never got them. Nobody famous freed those 38. Boatmen rowed out. Magistrates climbed aboard. Ordinary hands, keeping Britain's word. In Virginia, paper made them property. On British ground, thanks to the British citizens, it could not. 🇬🇧 This is the revival of British culture. Be part of it. 👉 proudofus.co.uk/support 👈 Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

13 June 1982 - On this night 44 years ago, British soldiers fought one of the hardest battles of the Falklands War on the rocky slopes of Mount Tumbledown. The Brits advanced through darkness against determined Argentine resistance in a brutal night battle fought at close quarters among the boulders and ridges overlooking Stanley. It was a battle won through courage, discipline and sheer determination. The capture of Mount Tumbledown opened the way to Stanley and helped bring the war to its conclusion. The following day, Argentine forces surrendered. Today we remember the men who fought there, especially those who never came home. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧

This week the most advanced AI model on the planet got switched off by a foreign government. British researchers were studying it. British companies were testing it. British hospitals were piloting it. Not any more. This isn't an AI story. It's the story of every industry we used to lead. Britain has some of the best AI talent in the world. DeepMind was built here. Our AI Safety Institute writes the rules other countries follow. We have the researchers, the universities, the standards. What we don't have is the power stations to run the data centres, the planning system to build them, or the industrial base to make the chips. So the work happens here and the value lands somewhere else. We invent. Others build. Others decide. Then we read about it on Saturday morning. Same story as the kit our soldiers don't have. Same story as the factories we used to. I spent nine months in government making this argument inside the room. I'll make it louder from outside.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

#OTD in 1984, the Leander-class frigate HMS Jupiter became wedged under London Bridge after the captain had declined to use available tugs to help navigate the currents of the Thames. The accident resulted in significant damage to both the ship and the landmark. The captain was court-martialed and severely reprimanded.
