There's NOTHING wrong with exclusion. I'm excluded from disabled parking spaces as not disabled; from OAP rights as too young; from children's sports as too old; from women's spaces as not female. Emily has NOT been excluded from racing, only from racing in the WRONG CATEGORY.

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. Please share: #BoycottLushNow
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

There’s something chilling about this interview with Qesser Zurah after the terror ban on Palestine Action was upheld. She’s charged with the same attack on the Elbit factory we just saw heavy sentencing on. She talks of “victory” being “promised”. Watch and understand them.

"They are the best of us" What a fucking moron.
I feel much sadness at the terrorism sentencing of the #Filton defendants. Young people with a conscience who, like the Suffragettes, are being punished for taking direct action. They deserve our respect. They are the best of us. Al Jazeera noted "If the court decides there was a terrorism connection, the activists would have to serve their entire sentences in prison, unless they have already completed at least two‑thirds of the sentence and a parole board decides they can be released. Conversely, non-terrorist prisoners usually serve about 40 percent of their sentence in custody and are released early..... Additionally, if the activists are sentenced in this way, they can be recorded as “terrorists” for the rest of their lives, would be required to register new mobile devices, email addresses and bank accounts with the police for their lifetime, and face being returned to prison if they breach their licence conditions or reoffend.” #GazaGenocide‌ #Palestine

You whipped your MPs to vote against a national inquiry into Pakistani rape gangs. Your government also placed unvetted men in hotels near schools. You don’t care about protecting children, this is a political move for digital ID.
We are banning social media access for under 16s. These days kids must find their feet in a world where technology intrudes into every area of their life. I just can’t let that go on anymore. So we’re giving children their childhoods back.

For anyone bleating “Doctor Who has always been woke!”: to paraphrase Ewan McGregor, you’re no Doctor Who fan. Thoughtful, yes. Progressive, sometimes and in some ways. “Woke”, also known as “regressive”? Never in all its previous decades.
Doctor Who was destroyed by wokeness. This once-beloved BBC show became one long, boring lecture on progressive orthodoxies. It won’t be missed, says Gilian Philip buff.ly/iGU09Ln

BlueSky is a far bigger threat to children than X, Facebook or YouTube. No social media platform is perfect, but BlueSky has serious child safeguarding issues that need addressing. Yet somehow it's been left off the ban list. The Government needs to explain the logic.
🚨NEW: Social media app BlueSky, is absolutely FULL of accounts that claim to be a “minor attracted person” In other words, they are PROUDLY calling themselves a pedophile. BlueSky was also conveniently left off of Starmer’s under 16s social media ban list…… H/T: @Inevitablewest

The "Mole Man of Hackney" was the nickname given to William Lyttle, an eccentric Irish civil engineer who spent roughly 40 years illegally digging a massive network of tunnels beneath his 20-room Victorian property in De Beauvoir Town, Hackney, London. The Digging Obsession Lyttle inherited the property at 121 Mortimer Road in the 1960s. He claimed his obsession started entirely by accident when he merely intended to hollow out a standard wine cellar. After completing that initial project, he remarked that he had "found a taste for the thing" and simply kept going. Using only a shovel and a custom, homemade pulley system, Lyttle dug single-handedly for four decades. Over time, his subterranean excavations created a web of caverns and tunnels that reached depths of up to 8 metres (26 feet) and spanned out 20 metres (65 feet) in every direction from his house. One of his secret passages reportedly burrowed far enough to connect near the Dalston Lane railway tunnel. Neighborhood Chaos & Eviction Lyttle's unchecked digging turned into a major public safety hazard. Neighbors frequently complained that the ground was shaking. On one occasion, Lyttle cut off power to the entire street for a day when he accidentally struck a high-voltage, 450-volt underground electrical cable. The council was finally forced to intervene in the early 2000s when the surrounding pavements and roads began to physically collapse and form sinkholes. A structural evaluation using ultrasound scanning revealed that his house was practically floating on a hollowed-out web of dirt. In 2006, Hackney Council officially evicted Lyttle due to imminent structural dangers. When crews cleared the property, they removed 33 tonnes of debris, which oddly included the buried frames of three cars and a boat. The council filled the dangerous underground cavities with tons of solid concrete to stabilize the neighborhood. Later Life and Legacy Lyttle was ultimately ordered by the High Court to pay nearly £300,000 for the extensive stabilization repairs. Because he was banned from returning to the property, the council temporarily housed him in a hotel before moving him into a top-floor high-rise flat—specifically chosen so he could no longer tunnel into the earth. However, his compulsion could not be stopped; after he passed away from natural causes in June 2010 at age 79, authorities discovered he had knocked a large, tunnel-shaped hole right through the wall dividing his kitchen and living room. Lyttle has since been remembered as one of London's legendary modern eccentrics, famously stating, "There is great beauty in inventing things that serve no purpose."

My God. This Israeli witness described a scene in which a group of Palestinians dragged a woman from a vehicle, raped her and mocked her throughout the attack. The woman was then brutally murdered with a knife, after which … the sexual abuse continued. After she was dead. The same group later encountered a man and woman attempting to flee and killed them using axes and knives Palestinian civilians who participated in the October 7 attacks arrived carrying weapons such as axes and knives and were intent on inflicting extreme sexual violence against Jewish victims.

J’accuse 👉🏽 @MayorofLondon Your confected narrative painted a target on the Jewish community in London, despite knowing there are no illegal land sales planned, you decided to post incendiary rhetoric to whip up hate against the Jewish community. Today that target was Edgware. Imagine the elderly in the community being subjected to hours of shrieking situational sociopaths with the area cordoned off by countless police vans, over a hundred police officers attempting to keep a community safe. I did my best to speak with them as they stepped out horrified by the noise. @ShabanaMahmood I cannot for the life of me understand why you thought this protest, which was without doubt a hate protest, was a good idea. Chants of all Palestine will be Arab from war to war were heard. Death triangle signs were made, masks worn, IRGC support in full site. Tonight Britain has fallen further. When the Mayor of London can falsely paint targets on a minority community and the Home Office condones a shrieking hate protest, the warning sirens are sounding in Britain. I’m totally disgusted with the current government, fomenting hatred towards British Jews. In a space of 13 days, I found myself in Israel commemorating the 85th anniversary of the Farhud in Iraq, on Friday I was at the Nova Exhibition and today standing my ground alongside the Jewish community in Edgware. There is a meteoric rise of whipped up Jew hatred, this goes beyond the realms of simplistic phrases like antisemitism. We are at critical mass, a deadly existential threat now exists for British Jews.
The protest in Edgware is turning up a notch, it’s due to go for another couple of hours. Jewish Brits are being harassed and intimidated on the streets of London whilst @MayorofLondon does nothing. Video by @fnotarius

I hear that a backbench MP will be reintroducing the assisted suicide bill. I cannot think of a more tone-deaf thing to do at a time of national malaise, particularly as the bill divides the Labour Party, and has been rejected by every medical royal college that took a view.

Why is Sir Keir Starmer’s Government set to ban under-16s from accessing 10 major social media platforms — including X — but not left-wing platforms like Bluesky? Since coming to power, this Government has been openly hostile to X, a forum for debate that prides itself on free speech. Ministers have even floated the idea of blocking UK citizens’ access to the platform altogether. Starmer can no longer pretend this is solely about protecting children.

Classic Konstantin Kisin street interview. Bloke marching with a big sign demanding a “socialist intifada” for the New Workers’ Party. Kisin: “What’s a socialist intifada?” Bloke: “If I’m being honest with you, I just got this at the stand over there… I don’t actually know the definition of the word intifada.”😂🤣 Zero clue what he’s chanting for, but the sign looked revolutionary so why not? Peak protest cosplay. The slogans are loud, the understanding… nonexistent. Much love and respect to @KonstantinKisin @triggerpod 👊🏼

My thoughts on @parkrun founder Paul Sinton-Hewitt’s comments in this interview.👇 1. It’s good that he is openly admitting what he previously called “the gender thing” is a problem. But parkrun has had years to fix it. I met the previous CEO in June 2023. Since then,…
‘The most obvious challenge is this whole gender, sex debate..We will get through that’ From @EDP24 - interview with Parkrun founder ‘My hope and wish is that as we navigate this, we don’t do ourselves any damage, that we protect what is really, really important to us, which is inclusivity, that we don’t alienate any part of the community’ ‘I think the people trying to protect women’s sport have a right to do that… but we have a right to protect participation and inclusivity’ @mara_yamauchi @sharrond62 Hard to see ’common ground’ - either men push women down the tables and hold their records, or they don’t Great story EDP ‘This whole debate’ - what a dismissive phrase edp24.co.uk/news/national/26…

Apple built this exact tool in 2021. Within weeks, security researchers showed it could flag innocent people's content. Apple killed it 16 months later. The UK just gave tech companies three months to build it anyway, threatening prison for executives who refuse. The proposal is for something called client-side scanning. End-to-end encryption (the technology that protects your WhatsApp or Signal messages) works by scrambling your messages on your phone before they leave it. Nobody intercepting them can read them. Client-side scanning changes that sequence: your phone checks every image and message against a database of prohibited content before encrypting it. The lock stays in place, but the inspection happens first. When the government says "scan for nude images," technically they mean "scan everything." The people who invented internet security have already ruled on this. Ronald Rivest helped create RSA encryption, the system behind every padlock icon you see in a browser. Whitfield Diffie invented public-key cryptography, the math that all web security is built on. In October 2021, both co-signed a paper with twelve other leading cryptographers, concluding that device-level scanning undermines security for everyone while giving law enforcement only unreliable gains. Once that infrastructure is on every phone, any government can point it at whatever they decide to ban next. The EU spent three years trying to pass something identical. Germany blocked a Council vote in October 2025. On March 26, 2026, the European Parliament voted 307 to 306 to reject it. One vote. German federal police data from those debates showed roughly 48% of the 300,000 chats reported annually under existing scanning rules were false positives, innocent people's messages treated as criminal evidence. There is one more consequence the announcement left out. The government wants to block nude images on children's devices but not adults'. Enforcing that line means every device in the UK needs to know whether its owner is a child. The only way to do that is mandatory age verification. Signal pointed out where this lands: every UK resident would need to prove their identity just to communicate privately. That means 67 million people submitting identification to use software they already own. The EU rejected this by one vote two and a half months ago. The UK is now attempting it alone.
NEW: U.K. advances proposal to force Apple, Google, Signal, & other platforms to scan private content on users’ devices — executives could face prison if they refuse.
