While this clown & most commenting are actively lying about what she said & what it stands for, any objective observer can see the judge actively participated in a miscarriage of justice Is he owned by Israel, or is he simply a coward 'following orders' from the govt who are?šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
A juror — a JUROR — in the Palestine Action case is now speaking at a rally in their support. šŸ˜µā€šŸ’« This is the collapse of the apparatus of our freedoms. What is Britain becoming?

New on Substack: How to Beat the Algorithmic Fascist Beast Rupert Lowe posted one word and got sixty million views. Here's why that number is a lie, and what you can do about it: X's algorithm does not read sentiment. It reads engagement. Your angry reply is algorithmically identical to a supportive one. Every dunk, every quote-tweet, every "can you believe this" is rocket fuel for the content you oppose. Peer-reviewed research in PNAS, ACM FAccT, and a MDPI systematic review of 30 studies all confirm X's algorithm amplifies right-wing content by default. The PNAS study found this replicated across seven countries. A pre-registered experiment (Milli et al., 2025, PNAS Nexus) found the algorithm amplifies "emotionally charged, out-group hostile content" that users themselves say they don't want to see. The algorithm overrides your preferences. Analysis of the 2026 open-sourced code found that mass blocking acts as a negative quality signal: "If many people block you, the algorithm treats it as a quality signal and reduces your distribution more broadly". Based on these documented mechanics, mass blocking would collapse engagement rates, degrade algorithmic quality scores, and sever the pipeline that pushes far-right content into centrist feeds. This applies to the whole network: Lowe, Farage, Reform, Restore Britain, Tate, Robinson, GB News, and every mid-tier amplification node in between. The far right needs your outrage. Without it, sixty million becomes a fraction. The algorithm only runs if you feed it. Block. Mute. Don't engage. Starve the machine. And more importantly, take action in the real world.

The left-wing amateur club Easton Cowboys & Cowgirls, based in Bristol, came up with the idea of travelling to Chiapas to play football with the Zapatistas in 1998. In 1999, the club took advantage of the ā€œsporting activitiesā€ exemption in the Mexican government's travel restrictions on foreigners and visited the autonomous Zapatista villages in Chiapas. There, the English footballers played matches throughout the day against masked Zapatista teams in mountain villages inhabited by Indigenous communities. In the evenings, they gathered around campfires to share their experiences, struggles and stories. Among those who took part in these visits was the future world-famous street artist Banksy. Banksy served as the team's reserve goalkeeper during the matches and, afterwards, painted murals in the villages where Indigenous people lived.

It's impossible to watch even a couple of minutes of this and believe the Filton 6 were tried WITHOUT fear or favour The political interference, blatantly illegal acts from the judge and Elbit during the trail, are some of the biggest ever shit stains on our 'justice' system
As we reported last month, the jury in the retrial of the Filton 6 delivered a bizarre verdict, singling out Jordan Devlin and Zoe Rogers for acquittal while finding the other four guilty of criminal damage. The verdict was unusual because all six admitted they had committed criminal damage and gave similar reasons for doing so. Real Media spoke to the two activists who were acquitted by the jury while their four friends and fellow activists face sentencing with a terrorism connection. We also speak to the mother of one of the four, who questions a justice system that allows this.

The Reform MPs & their supporters are reading a lot into her comments, as if they feel the word "grubbiness" is pointing at themselves, and not merely a statement about the whole election campaign she recently took part in And here I was believing they lacked self-awarenessšŸ™ˆšŸ™‰šŸ™Š

As I watched videos of houses burning in Northern Ireland, I was reminded of the last few lines of this excellent Chumbawamba song from 1998, which is sadly all too relevant today

We know this is X and you tend to talk out of your arse, Lowe, so this is for any who care for facts. You called human beings "third world savages" and promised to retrospectively prosecute anyone who "knowingly placed" them in our communities. The obvious question is: who actually placed them? The Home Office asylum dispersal system operates through three private contractors: Clearsprings Ready Homes, Serco, and Mears. They source the accommodation and allocate the placements. Below them sit local authority staff, caseworkers, and landlords carrying out duties under the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999. People on £27,000 to £33,000 a year. Those are the people you want to send to prison. Retrospectively. Now let us ask who you left out. Those same three companies have made £383 million in collective profit from contracts whose total cost has tripled from £4.5 billion to £15.3 billion. Clearsprings alone posted £119 million in pre-tax profit in a single year and told Parliament that hotel accommodation is "more profitable than longer-term housing". They placed asylum seekers in communities. That was the contract. They are nowhere in your tweet. The caseworker who followed the law gets prison. The company that banked nine figures gets nothing. Curious, that. Your own party might clarify things: Gavin Williamson joined your advisory board. His parliamentary register of interests still lists the role. He was Secretary of State for Defence, sitting in Cabinet, when those very contracts were signed on 8 January 2019. Susan Hall, Conservative leader on the London Assembly, also joined. Among your councillors: Maxine Fothergill, eight years a Conservative councillor in Bexley. Paul Thomas, who stood as a Conservative candidate in Maidstone. Maria Bowtell, elected as a Conservative councillor in 2023, now your Head of Governance. Former Conservatives. And in May 2025, you told the press you were "open to joining the Conservative Party" after lunching with Robert Jenrick. The party that designed, signed, and operated the system you now call criminal. You were not trying to prosecute then, you were trying to join them. Your concern for British communities is so touching it would be rude not to test it against the facts. A study by the Glasgow Centre for Population Health and the University of Glasgow, published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, found 335,000 excess deaths across Great Britain between 2012 and 2019 attributable to austerity. A separate LSE study estimated 190,000 causally linked to spending cuts over the same decade. The DWP conducted secret reviews into 69 suicides of benefit claimants. Analysis by Disability News Service suggested the true number may exceed 750 in a single year. Errol Graham starved to death in 2018 after his benefits were stopped. Philippa Day was found collapsed beside a letter rejecting her claim, with 28 documented errors. British citizens. Dead in their own homes. No retrospective prosecution. Not from you. Your outrage is remarkably selective, Lowe. It appears when the victim is white and the perpetrator is not. It fades when the pattern reverses. It vanishes entirely when British citizens die from policy decisions made in Westminster. You do not care about victims. You care about which victims are useful to you. You don't care for justice. You care for converting anger to votes, like all politically pathetic grifters do. You want the prosecution, or in fact, the persecution, of workers while the corporations that profited walk free. You are a vile and pathetic hypocrite.
A Restore Britain Government will aim to prosecute officials and politicians who knowingly placed dangerous third world savages in our communities. This will apply retrospectively. A great number of people will go to prison for what has been inflicted on our communities.

I'm a cardiologist. A 42-year-old mother of two came to my office complaining of jaw pain and crushing fatigue. She ran half-marathons. Her EKG was normal. Another doctor had sent her home with anxiety medication. When I got her into the cath lab, I found severe microvascular disease — plaque choking the tiniest vessels of her heart, the ones standard angiograms routinely miss. Her heart had been starving in silence while everyone told her she was stressed. She is alive today. Too many women like her are not. Heart disease kills more women than every cancer combined. And medicine is still diagnosing it through a male lens. 84% of cardiologists report having patients in the past year whose heart disease was misdiagnosed by another physician. Women with a STEMI heart attack have a 59% greater chance of being misdiagnosed compared to men. Women with an NSTEMI — 41% greater chance. The reason is structural. For decades, we screened, tested, and treated women using a template built for men. Men's heart attacks announce themselves — the crushing chest pain, the clutched fist, the Hollywood collapse. Women's hearts whisper. Crushing fatigue that feels like wearing a lead vest. Jaw pain written off as TMJ. Nausea blamed on a stomach bug. An ache between the shoulder blades blamed on a long week. Shortness of breath blamed on being out of shape. For years, medicine called these "atypical" symptoms. They are not atypical. They are female-typical. Half of humanity is not a variant. And the biology runs deeper than symptoms. Women have smaller hearts and narrower coronary arteries. Plaque doesn't only clog the big highway vessels — it hides in the microvasculature, the tiny branches feeding the heart muscle itself. A woman can have a heart attack with a completely "clean" standard angiogram. SCAD — spontaneous coronary artery dissection — occurs 90% of the time in women. Often young, fit women with zero traditional risk factors. It's the leading cause of heart attack in women under 50, accounting for roughly one quarter of all cases in that age group. Most doctors have never diagnosed one. And some of the most dangerous cardiac risk factors are hidden in women's medical histories where no one thinks to look: Preeclampsia or gestational hypertension doubles to quadruples lifetime heart disease and stroke risk. Pregnancy is the body's first cardiac stress test — and these complications are early warning sirens, not closed chapters. Autoimmune disease — lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis — far more common in women, turbocharges inflammation and plaque formation at any age. Cardiovascular disease in women aged 20-44 is projected to surge nearly 50% by 2050. The youngest patients in my practice keep getting younger. What every woman should ask her doctor — and what every doctor should be asking: "Given my pregnancy history, autoimmune status, and family history — what is my full cardiovascular risk?" If they don't ask about preeclampsia or gestational diabetes, volunteer it. "Should I have an Lp(a) test and a coronary calcium score?" Standard cholesterol panels miss too much. Lp(a) is genetic, one-time, and most women have never been tested. "My tests came back normal but my symptoms haven't stopped — what's next?" Normal stress tests and angiograms can miss microvascular disease, spasm, and SCAD. Persistent symptoms warrant coronary CT angiography or cardiac MRI. And if something feels wrong — say these exact words to your doctor: "I am concerned this could be my heart." That single sentence changes the workup. Do not soften it. Do not apologize for it. 80% of heart disease is preventable. But the playbook has to be built for female biology. Two decades ago, I wrote one of the first books warning that heart disease was the number one killer of women and that medicine was diagnosing it through a male lens. It was recognized by First Lady Laura Bush at the White House during the early years of the national conversation about women's heart health. I'm haunted by how much of that book I could republish today unchanged. The science has advanced. The awareness has grown. But the gap between what we know and what happens in the exam room is still costing women their lives. Share this with every woman you love — and every doctor who treats them.

Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled ā€œWhat the Wounds Tellā€ and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. ā€œA single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targetedā€œ, the two journalists write. This is the article: volkskrant.nl/kijkverder/v/2…

For generations the 'left' screamed about multi-tiered policing & 'justice' With 1000s of examples of privilege given to the rich, those who know the 'right' people, have the right jobs, men, white people etc The right-wing turned blind eyes, until they could weaponise injustice

"No one should be making profits from vulnerable children" I signed this because I agree with that statement, if you also agree, please sign it too šŸ™
No one should be making profits from vulnerable children. Yet Ā£1 out of every Ā£5 paid to private providers of children’s social care is taken out in profit. The profits are so good that even the top civil servant at the health department owned shares in a children’s social care company. Time to end this scam! Add your name now: weownit.org.uk/end-profit-ca…

Thank you President šŸ‡øšŸ‡®. Palestine is the moral compass of our time. From Spain to Slovenia there is hope for Europe. A Europe that puts people above banks and markets, rights above profits, and respects int'l law regardless of political calculus.
Genocid nad Palestinci ni ustavljen in ljudje v Gazi in na Zahodnem bregu ne živijo v miru in dostojanstvu. Danes izobeŔena zastava Palestine na pročelju PredsedniŔke palače, ki bo tu ostala en teden, potem pa bo, kot opomin vsem, ki obiŔčejo moj urad, stala v notranjih prostorih, pa pomeni Ŕe mnogo več. Je simbol grobih krŔitev mednarodnega humanitarnega prava in človekovih pravic ne samo v Palestini, pač pa tudi drugod po svetu. Je preprost klic k spoŔtovanju temeljnega civilizacijskega načela: človekovega dostojanstva - za vse.

Replying to @UKLabour
BREAKING - A Swiss Tribunal recognises the legitimate right to peacefully oppose the ongoing genocide in Palestine. One again: justice for Palestine starts at home. It only takes people caring and applying Intl Law. And persevering.

Demented troll praises the man second in command of the nation, whose cops kill 10x more of its own citizens than all of Europe combined A known liar & crook who'll spew any old shite to deflect attention from his Pedo-in-Chief and the endemic corruption his govt is carrying out
Such a powerful message from @VP This is a shot across the bows for the borderless planet / one- world government / 'humanity is nothing but a data-set' vision that drives so much policy without our awareness.... Thank you jd vance. Immigration is important and inevitable. But we need a modernised plan.

Data centres use PFAS, "forever chemicals", in cooling systems and fire suppression. In 2024, the EPA determined there is no safe level of exposure to PFAS. Some are classified as carcinogenic by the WHO. They are linked to kidney and testicular cancers, thyroid disease, immune disruption. They do not break down. There is no specific PFAS standard in UK Water Quality Regulations. Operators are not required to register with a regulator. There is no mandatory water use reporting for data centres
