For a very small illustration of how hysterical the political environment became pre-Trump II, in this thread I will record everything the BBC identified as cultural appropriation in the year 2018:

How the Green Party's 'reparations officer' is actually the descendent of one of history's largest slave traders. 1/4 It started in 1861 when the British West Africa Squadron in its war on slavery deposed the King of Lagos due to his role in transatlantic Slavery.

Iran doesn't have an air force or a navy anymore. They have very minimal air defenses. Most of their missile facilities have been destroyed. What they do have is a global propaganda and disinformation network -- the entire Islamoleftist Palestine movement has been mobilized on

This is what Labour wanted. 500 children without a school place. 170 staff made redundant. Their VAT raid on school fees was never about “fairness”, it was about punishing independent education. Children, families teachers and support staff are now paying the price.

I mean it’s aesthetically pleasing, but it’s no crowd scene around the goalkeeper fouling everyone to the extent that no foul can be called.

Palestine Action activists sued: “I smashed up these guys’ business, and I can’t believe that they want me to pay for the damage!” theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/a…

While you're at it, can you bring back the connection between behaviour and consequence? Lord knows, you're not all to blame for the loss of this across the public domain, but you are in charge now.

Sarah Smith on BBC News at 10 saying she doesn’t know what Melania Trump was talking about when making a speech about fake posts and images of her and Epstein on socials. They’re really easy to find on here- maybe she could try doing some journalism, instead of just reacting to

The cost of living crisis must be getting bad, BBC News have got a feature where a journalist has ventured outside the M25 and has gone to a northern pub to ask locals what they think of petrol prices…

🚨 Sadiq Khan is the only one spreading misinformation about crime in London. Here are the facts from the Metropolitan Police: In the 12 months to February 2026: ❌ Sexual offences up 6.1% ❌ Rape up 8.4% ❌ Violence up 6.3% ❌ Drug offences up 22.9% ❌ Weapons possession up

The sooner Elon Musk stops the accounts of elected public servants and govt organisations, like this one, from restricting replies the better. Pumping out his own brand of disinformation and propaganda unchallenged whilst demonising critics who’ve no right to reply is

How is this supposed to work? Is the landlord compelled to sell at this “fair market rate”? How is that calculated? And if they are not compelled to sell, and think they can get a better offer, won’t the landlord just wait out the exclusivity period, & then put it on the market?

I would say the Crown Prince of Iran Reza Pahlavi has more of a right to comment on Iran than a far-left agitator in the UK who nobody likes.

It's not the job of the Home Office to supply these universities with an endless stream of international students for income. We've had over 50,000 asylum claims from people who arrived on a study visa since 2021. There is clearly abuse and stopping this outweighs their income.

*The new poll, by JL Partners, shows that a majority of voters in every region and age group want the Prime Minister to be replaced... James Johnson, the co-founder of JL Partners, said: “I can’t think of a time I have seen the governing party’s own voters be in majority support

I just do not understand how anyone can think this Artemis II stuff is boring or a waste of time. We should really use it as a test to determine who should not be allowed to vote.

Is this like a religious point? That there is some great plan out there, a supreme being dictating the actions of billions of people all at once? That's the only way in which I could possibly understand someone thinking that "the economy was designed".

Rapist serving 2 life sentences attacks woman while out on unsupervised day release. The Home Office wouldn’t let Lucy Connolly have one day at home with her daughter. Two-tier justice.

Just heard this chant at Stamford Bridge: “We know what you are, we know what you are, you cheating bastards, we know what you are.” Not even joking, which set of fans were singing it? 😂

Could everyone please repost and share this tweet. I don’t normally ask, but this corner of Norfolk is going to be covered by solar panels and infrastructure the equivalent of 43,200 tennis courts. This insanity must be stopped. Thank you blockeastpyesolar.co.uk Allison Pearson
