Everyone should read this
I don’t want to post the video. You’ve all seen it. But I do want to write a love letter…
Dear everyone in Britain, ( even you illegals)
Just so you understand. The poppy is for the boys who never got to grow old. For the boys who were still somebody’s baby, brother, uncle or father. More than 600,000 of them.
It doesn’t matter if you support war, hate your country, think you are a woman (even though you are a man). It doesn’t matter which God you pray to, or if you pray to none at all.
It doesn’t matter who you vote for, what climate narrative you believe, or whether you believe Israel should exist or not!
The poppy isn’t for you!
It’s for those who came before. Those who fought for your right to be weird, annoying or even foreign.
The poppy is how we say thank you. Thank you for giving us time, peace and choice.
And attempting to ban our poppy by declaring it politically divisive isn’t a move towards freedom. It is an act of suppression. Understand that.
The poppy is about love and loss. For you!
So stick your rainbow flags and every other flag where the sun doesn’t shine and just wear your poppy. Those boys did not die as symbols. They died for you!
Did you know that poppies grew across the battlefields where so many fell? As though even the land refused to forget the blood once given to defend it.
So the poppy is for them. For those who came before us and paid in youth, in hope, in breath, in blood, so that we might have the freedom to be arseholes.
So that we might even have the freedom to fight over the ridiculous, the inconsequential and the insane.
Revere it, celebrate it and wear it. The very least you can do is that.
Best
The ordinary people.
I have heard some BS in my time from @McivorJaymey but this is hilarious. “I wasn’t speeding officer my mums says so”
"No laws were broken"
"According to your mates!"
Reform UK councillor Jaymey McIvor is questioned by broadcaster Richard Bacon about an internal party investigation over whether it breached electoral law.

Agree
I’m gay because I love men.
Not “queer.” Not “LGBTQIA+.” Not whatever new letter they invent next week.
I love actual male bodies, male energy, male reality.
The second you start telling me that a woman who takes testosterone and cuts her breasts off is somehow the same as me, you’ve already lost the plot.
We are not the same. Stop forcing it.
Spencer’s book is full of lies. Well done @piersmorgan
She’s right, @BBCNews giving free publicity to Spencer the man that regularly cheats on his wives and doesn’t speak to half of children.
Why on earth is #BBC devoting its 6.30pm slot this evening to an interview with Earl Spencer?
It’s nothing more than free advertising for a book he’s about to publish!
#DirtyLinen
Seriously the BBC have these two muppets offering their opinion on big issues facing the country failed Leader of the Labour Party and a failed Tory MP. BBC get a grip. @BBCNewsnight @RoryStewartUK

What a nasty piece of work Jenrick has become. Gone the urbane Shropshire Manor owning, SW1 residing gent transformed into a Poundland Lee Anderson
Everyday I love @jk_rowling more and more, you are fantastic
It has come to my notice (I'm a continent away) that Nicola Sturgeon has again claimed I'm obsessed with her. This is, of course, true. I hereby repost my adoring review of her magnum opus, in which I attempted to convey the full magnificence of La Sturge.

Isabella, who seems like a very nice and well meaning person, is nevertheless a man. He feels unsafe among men in a men's toilet. Yet he expects women to be happy to accept men walking into women's toilets just because they claim they think they're trans. What about OUR safety and dignity?Sorry, Isabella, but it's not OUR job to accommodate YOU.
'I will never be safe in a man's toilet', says Isabella who is a trans woman.
Thousands of single-sex spaces in the UK, like changing rooms and toilets, should be used based on biological sex, according to new guidelines that come into place today from the Equalities and Human Rights Commission. The guidance says trans people should instead be offered a separate mixed-sex space.
It follows a Supreme Court ruling last year that the definition of sex for the purposes of the Equality Act means biological sex - the sex of a person at birth, not the gender you identify with.
While gender critical organisations welcome clarification on the law', many in the trans community and LGBTQ+ organisations feel the guidelines leave them more open to discrimination.

This Dr is cuckoo. A man cannot get pregnant and a woman does not have a penis
It's like I keep telling you. Some people who are pregnant right now are male. And if they are pregnant, they have a womb, and that means they may need to buy products from that aisle. Get over it , move along, nothing to see here.

The arrogance of @Nigel_Farage if you want to be an MP you have to be honest with electorate and not treat them with such disdain.
We need to listen to people like @TomTugendhat are you listening @Keir_Starmer ? I doubt it.

This is how to react to the horrendous murder and the police’s failure to help a dying boy. A true Leader. @KemiBadenoch

Looking forward to @RobertJenrick's 'Security of Photocopiers' Bill... 👀
Spring cleaning started by Kemi still has some way to go. There’s only one way to vote if you’re conservative and that’s for a conservative candidate.
