It has been reported that a 125-decibel sound level was recorded at the Scotland v Haiti game during the pre match anthem singing of Flower of Scotland - the loudest ever noise level at a World Cup match. 🏴

🚨NEWS: French President Emmanuel Macron has thanked the UK for “Joining the movement” after Keir Starmer announced he would ban under 16’s from accessing social media
It’s all part of one big plan apparently

Well well well, Macron has just announced the same social media ban on the same day as France... Coincidence?
Who is really behind this? Labour are out of control @Keir_Starmer

Reminder.
A social media ban was NOT in Labour's 2024 Manifesto.
Neither was Digital I.D.
Oh, or State Suicide.
Or binning the two child benefit cap.

We are ruled by idiots.
Do they not know every 15 year old revises GCSE’s on YouTube?
Do they not know that teenagers track their friends are home safely on SnapChat?
Do they not realise that - especially in rural areas with no transport - teenagers social lives are on… social media.
Do they not know that teenagers will find ways round - as has been shown in Australia.
This ban is illogical and damaging.
If I hear another parent say “it’s so hard to police them” I’ll scream. It’s a parent’s job. Take responsibility the children you are meant to be bringing up.
It is not the government’s job to look after your children.
But the government will now insist all adults provide ID to prove we are over 18.

- WhatsApp, Signal and YouTube Kids will be exempt
- Under-16s will also be banned from livestreaming, messaging strangers on gaming apps like Discord and using disappearing messages
- 16 and 17 year olds will face nightly social media curfews and limits on infinite scrolling with more details next month
- AI "romantic companion" chatbots will be banned for under-18s
- Adults can still access social media through age checks like facial recognition, digital IDs, passports and credit cards

This banning of social media, certain quarters herald this as a great way forward, but overall it’s going to hinder & whole generation of youngsters who’ve grown up with this as a way & means of communication. This will have the complete opposite in the long term.

That's exactly the community leaders they're talking about because we don't have leaders in our community!

Just read an article it reads
“Community leaders have expressed shock and sadness following a fatal assault in Chelmsford.”
What community leaders??

Ugh. This is DISGUSTING @LushLtd. Teenage girls love to shop in your stores and here you are happily encouraging them to CUT OFF THEIR HEALTHY BREASTS in the name of trans pride.
This is beyond repulsive. It's dangerous and sick. No parent should allow their child near your stores.

Dear Lush (cc Chelmsford City Council),
As a woman who had half a breast removed last year due to cancer, I am writing to raise my concerns about your “Proud of My Stripes” window display.
I am also, on behalf of other women who have experienced breast cancer, respectfully requesting its removal.
Because mastectomies are not a fashion statement, an identity marker or something to be celebrated.
They are something women undergo because they are ill, because they are frightened, because they are trying to stay alive.
Around 59,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK every year. Many will undergo surgery - a mastectomy, lumpectomy or other procedure.
Others choose preventive mastectomies because they carry a high-risk BRCA gene mutation.
If a woman chooses to have her breasts removed to affirm a gender identity, that is her personal choice.
I honestly don’t know the number of women who have elective mastectomies for this reason.
What I do know is that it is a tiny number compared with those for whom breast surgery is medically necessary and not something to be celebrated.
I think I speak for many women who have experienced breast cancer - and for their families - when I say this:
Breast removal surgery is not something I regard as cute, playful or empowering.
Nor is it something I believe retailers should be celebrating.
For that reason, I am requesting that the display be removed and that @ChelmsCouncil apologise for promoting it on social media.
Yours sincerely,
Janet Murray

🚨 YOU HONESTLY HAVE TO LAUGH AT THE ABSOLUTE HYPOCRISY.
As I have been warning all week, Keir Starmer is desperately trying to lock down your internet and ban social media.
But look at what he is doing behind closed doors today. 🤡
He is literally begging Donald Trump for a special exemption from the new American ban on Anthropic.
Starmer wants to restrict exactly what you are allowed to see and say online, while demanding unrestricted access to the most powerful technology on the planet for his own government.
It is one rule for the globalist elite and a digital prison for the rest of you.
RT if you see right through Two-Tier Starmer and refuse to let them control us! 🇬🇧🔥
